The two of them traveled through the Tang Dynasty to open a supermarket, and the little Sizi was sup
Chapter 415 Taking the Little Princess to Buy Musical Instruments!
In the end, Princess Gaoyang jumped more than forty times before stopping due to exhaustion.
The little princess ran towards the panting Princess Gaoyang and hugged her tightly.
"Seventeenth Sister is amazing!"
Princess Gaoyang grinned; although she was tired, she had a lot of fun.
After Xiao Ran distributed the jump ropes, he didn't care whether the children continued to jump or not. So the children who liked jump rope continued to compete, while those who didn't went to play other games, such as the previous game of Eagle Catches Chickens.
Watching the children having fun, Xiao Ran sat quietly to the side and watched until school was over.
Soon, the bell rang, and it was time to let everyone go home.
"Bye-bye, little rhinoceros~"
Goodbye, Mingda!
The little princess stood beside Xiao Ran, saying goodbye to each of the other children.
Knowing that she could choose a musical instrument after returning home today, Princess Chengyang was unusually excited.
Xiao Ran led a group of people back to the villa. He first led the three little princesses to sit on the sofa, and then directly asked Princess Gao Yang, "Seventeen, do you have any favorite musical instruments? Or rather, does Seventeen want to learn a musical instrument?"
Princess Gaoyang nodded and then said, "But I have already made my wish."
Xiao Ran smiled, "This so-called wish is not just one. As long as you like it, I will try my best to fulfill it. Besides, how can studying be considered a wish?"
After saying that, Xiao Ran looked at Princess Chengyang, "Fan Yin, of course you can also ask for other things."
In fact, Xiao Ran never restricted them in any way except for eating candy, so the three little princesses didn't think this "wish" opportunity was rare. At this moment, Princess Chengyang didn't know what else she wanted.
She also enjoys painting, but Yan Liben's painting skills are already quite outstanding.
After thinking for a moment, Princess Chengyang said, "Then I want to eat lychees."
Princess Chengyang also loves the taste of lychees.
Xiao Ran readily agreed, "Okay, then let's eat lychees."
After recounting this, Xiao Ran asked the little princess and Princess Gaoyang, "Fanyin wants to learn the piano, what about you?"
The little princess crossed her arms and tilted her head. She didn't seem to like anything. In fact, she didn't know much about musical instruments.
Princess Gaoyang's eyes lit up, "I like the drums!"
This was exactly what Xiao Ran had guessed.
"Okay, let's go to the music store now."
With that, Xiao Ran stood up and led the three little princesses to the largest piano store in the city center.
Upon opening the door, the first thing that catches the eye is the wooden decor, with various musical instruments displayed throughout the room—it has everything imaginable.
The piano placed in the center is particularly eye-catching.
The shop assistant greeted the person who came in with a smile.
She first looked at the three little princesses, then smiled and said, "Hello sir, are you here to buy musical instruments for the children?"
Xiao Ran nodded. "Yes."
The salesperson then asked, "What kind of musical instrument are you looking to buy, sir? And what's your budget?"
Xiao Ran waved his hand dismissively, "It depends on what they like; the price isn't important."
After saying that, Xiao Ran felt like he was being pretentious, but now that he had money, he didn't need to look at the price when buying things, which was the truth.
The shop assistant's smile widened even more, and he led them directly to the piano in the center.
"This is our family's top-of-the-line piano. It is top-notch in terms of tone and other aspects. Children can also try out the piano and feel its texture."
Xiao Ran looked at the little princess of Chengyang who was already staring at the piano, and gently pushed the little princess's back.
"Go, Brahma, and see if you like it."
Princess Chengyang fell in love with the piano the moment she saw it.
Hearing Xiao Ran say this, Princess Chengyang didn't stand on ceremony and went straight to the piano. Although Princess Chengyang didn't know how to play the piano, she wasn't intimidated. Instead, she sat on the piano bench under the guidance of the shop assistant, and then reached out her little hand to press the keys.
Although it was just a few off-key notes, Princess Chengyang looked very serious.
After playing a few notes, Princess Chengyang looked at Xiao Ran, who smiled and asked, "How is it? Do you like it?"
Princess Chengyang nodded, "I like it!"
Xiao Ran looked at the shop assistant and asked, "Does this piano come in other colors?"
Xiao Ran didn't know much about pianos, but from what he learned on his phone, some pianos were pure black, while others were crystal clear, or even pink or gold.
The sales assistant smiled and said, "Of course we have them, but some of them are different styles."
Xiao Ran was completely baffled by all this. Seeing this, the saleswoman quickly explained, "Our pianos are all top-of-the-line. Although they are different models, just like luxury brands, there are so many brands and models, and they are all different, but they are all top-notch."
Xiao Ran understood what the shop assistant said. Although he didn't know anything about pianos, such a big music store would certainly not lie to them. So now the important thing was the color.
The shop assistant took a tablet from the side, which had pictures of various pianos on it, and handed it to the little princess from Chengyang.
She knew that Xiao Ran would definitely listen to the Princess of Chengyang.
The little princess of Chengyang immediately took a liking to the crystal-clear piano, which was also the most expensive.
“Brother, I like this. It’s exactly the same as the piano I saw in the video,” said the little princess of Chengyang.
Xiao Ran nodded, "Then this one."
The saleswoman quickly started operating the tablet and said, "We offer home delivery, sir. Please leave an address."
Xiao Ran nodded, left the address, and then said, "Take us to see the drum set."
The shop assistant was surprised that they wanted to buy more, and she happily led Xiao Ran and the others to the drum set.
The drum sets were all pretty much the same, so Princess Gaoyang picked the one she liked the most. Next up was the little princess.
Xiao Ran looked at the little princess and asked, "What does Sizi like?"
Unlike Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang, who both have their favorite musical instruments, this little princess doesn't even know what she likes yet.
The shop assistant smiled and said, "Children can look around here. In addition to Western musical instruments, we also have traditional instruments such as the guzheng and guqin, as well as various ethnic musical instruments such as the morin khuur and hulusi."
As she spoke, the shop assistant looked at the little princess and said with a smile, "I think it's very suitable for children to learn some traditional musical instruments. It suits their temperament and many people like them now."
Xiao Ran didn't speak, but looked at the little princess.
The little princess toddled around the music store with her short legs.
The shop assistant picked up a harmonica and said, "Little friend, this is called a harmonica. It's small and can make beautiful sounds."
The little princess took it, imitated the shop assistant, put it to her lips, puffed out her cheeks, and blew on it, making a "whoosh" sound. But after blowing twice, she put it down. Xiao Ran asked, "What's wrong? Don't you like it?"
The little princess nodded, "I don't like this~"
The little princess said she didn't like it, so Xiao Ran didn't force her and just followed behind her to continue shopping.
"Sizi, how about this? Do you like it?"
Xiao Ran picked up a pair of small handbells. The little princess took them and shook them a few times. The bells rang crisply. She continued to shake them, but her gaze had already begun to wander elsewhere.
Everyone was curious about which instrument the little princess would choose. She walked around, stopping occasionally, and finally stopped in a relatively quiet corner where traditional musical instruments were displayed.
The little princess's gaze was drawn to a uniquely shaped, large-mouthed, bright yellow musical instrument that stood out among a pile of flutes and erhus.
"Little Nang-jun~ I want this~" The little princess looked up and said to Xiao Ran in her soft and excited voice.
Xiao Ran was stunned when he saw the musical instrument the little princess was pointing at.
Because the little princess was pointing to the suona!
The suona, the "king" of musical instruments, has a high-pitched and resonant sound with great penetrating power. It is commonly known as the "musical rogue" and is generally used in folk weddings, funerals, or operas. This is really not a good match for the image of a little princess!
Xiao Ran's lips twitched involuntarily. He squatted down and tried to guide her gently: "Sizi, this suona is too loud and not very pleasant to listen to. Look, there's a guzheng and a ukulele over there. Would you like to take a look?"
The little princess shook her head and pointed firmly at the suona.
"Little Nang-kun~ I just love this~ It looks like a duck~"
Seeing that the little princess insisted, Xiao Ran sighed and said, "Alright, then we'll buy this one."
The little princess was now completely satisfied, and even when she left, she kept holding onto the suona (a traditional Chinese wind instrument).
The musical instruments for Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang were naturally delivered by the music store, since Xiao Ran's car couldn't fit them all, and the music store's car was following behind Xiao Ran's car at that moment.
Upon arriving at the villa, the workers who delivered the musical instruments placed the piano in the corner and the drum set there as well. As for the little princess's suona, it was still in her hands.
When the musical instruments arrived, the whole family gathered around.
Looking at the piano in the corner, Li Lizhi reached out and touched it, even pressing a few keys.
“This piano is really beautiful,” Li Lizhi said.
Xiao Ran smiled and said, "Once we find a good teacher, Chang Le can attend classes with us."
Li Lizhi nodded, "That's true."
Princess Gaoyang is now sitting behind the drum set, holding two drumsticks.
"Brother! Take a picture of me quickly!" Princess Gaoyang said, holding up her drumsticks.
Although she doesn't know how to play the drums yet, Princess Gaoyang is already striking a very impressive pose.
Xiao Ruoying became instantly interested when she heard that she was going to take pictures.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, let's change our clothes first before taking pictures." Xiao Ruoying said, leading Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang upstairs to change their clothes.
A short while later, he came down with Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang.
At this moment, Princess Chengyang was wearing the princess dress she had bought before, looking ethereal and fairy-like. Xiao Ruoying had also styled Princess Chengyang's hair and put a crystal crown on her head.
Then Princess Gaoyang was dressed in a leather outfit, which, although it didn't seem to match the current season, matched the drum set perfectly.
"Quickly, quick, let's start with the Sanskrit chant. Sit on the piano, then put your hands on it, and we'll take a picture."
Princess Chengyang nodded and, as Xiao Ruoying had instructed, sat down in front of the piano, allowing Xiao Ruoying to take pictures around her.
After filming was finished, it was time for Princess Gaoyang.
Princess Gaoyang picked up the drumsticks and started randomly banging on them, just like in the video she had watched.
Although it couldn't form a complete piece of music, it still looked quite impressive.
After taking several photos of Princess Gaoyang, the princess knew it was her turn and quickly picked up her suona (a traditional Chinese wind instrument).
"We're here! We're here!"
Seeing the little princess carrying the suona with great enthusiasm, Xiao Ruoying was amused.
"Alright, alright, it's our Sizi's turn."
The little princess aimed at the suona, puffed out her cheeks, and blew hard!
At that moment, Xiao Ran could only say that it truly lived up to its reputation as the "King of Instruments." Although the little princess's strength was limited and her voice wasn't very loud, it didn't diminish the penetrating power of the suona that resonated through the skull.
Xiao Ruoying held a camera in one hand and could only barely cover one of her ears with the other.
Just as the little princess ran out of air and was about to take another breath, Xiao Ran quickly grabbed her hand.
“Sizi, we don’t need to really blow it, just strike a pose.”
Xiao Ruoying nodded quickly, "Yes, you have to play the suona with force, otherwise the footage won't look good."
Sometimes the little princess is quite conscious of her image. Hearing Xiao Ruoying say that, the little princess nodded and then pretended to be playing the suona.
Xiao Ruoying took several pictures of the little princess, and then the three little princesses took many more pictures while playing different musical instruments, until Yu Shu and Xiangcao said it was time for dinner.
Tonight's dinner includes braised chicken with sauerkraut, zucchini with eggs, pickled bamboo shoots, and more.
These pickled bamboo shoots are the ones they picked themselves last time, and then Yu Shu and Xiangcao pickled them after they came back.
Xiao Ran picked up a pickled bamboo shoot, took a sniff, and the aroma of pickled peppers wafted over him, making his mouth water.
"These pickled bamboo shoots smell delicious," Xiao Ran said, taking a bite himself.
The pickled peppers were very flavorful, with a strong sour and spicy taste, but not too spicy. The bamboo shoots were also very crisp, making them crunchy to eat.
Hearing Xiao Ran crunching away on pickled bamboo shoots beside her, the little princess swallowed hard.
"Little Nang-kun~ I want some too~"
The little princess pointed to the pickled bamboo shoots that were some distance away from her.
Xiao Ran put his hand down and said, "Sizi, this is a bit spicy. How about we eat chicken instead? Here, take this chicken leg."
As he spoke, Xiao Ran placed a chicken leg on the little princess's plate.
The little princess looked at the chicken leg in the bowl and took a bite.
Although the chicken leg was delicious, the little princess still wanted to eat pickled bamboo shoots.
"Little Nang Jun~ I only have a tiny bit of food~"
The little princess stretched out her thumb and forefinger, making a "little bit" gesture.
Xiao Ran thought for a moment. The pickled bamboo shoots weren't actually that spicy; a little bit wouldn't hurt the little princess. So he picked out a very small piece and put it in her bowl. (End of Chapter)
