The two of them traveled through the Tang Dynasty to open a supermarket, and the little Sizi was sup

The little girl picked up the suona (a traditional Chinese wind instrument) next to her and started playing the tune she had been practicing.

The suona has a very strong penetrating sound and is quite distinctive.

Just then, Xiao Ran and his group pushed open the door and heard the sounds coming from inside. It was at this moment that Xiao Ran realized just how good the soundproofing was. It was so good that if the house hadn't already been renovated, he would have wanted to ask Qiu Lefeng which renovation team he used.

The little girl was playing the suona with her back to them, unaware that anyone had come in. Xiao Ran and the others didn't disturb her either. After she finished playing, she looked at the little princess with the suona and said with a smile, "How was it? Was it nice?"

The little princess clapped enthusiastically from the sidelines.

"That sounds so good! You're so amazing, sister!"

The little girl looked proud after receiving the praise.

The old man at the door also clapped.

"Xiao Qi played well; it seems he has indeed practiced a lot."

At this moment, the people in the classroom realized that someone had entered.

The girl, nicknamed Xiao Qi, smiled a little shyly, but her eyes were full of pride.

Xiao Ran waved to the three little princesses.

“Sizi Fanyin Seventeen, let’s go out.”

The three little princesses hurriedly ran towards Xiao Ran. Xiao Ran nodded to the old man, then led the three little princesses out the door, while the old man went back to continue his lessons.

Outside the door, Qiu Lefeng led Xiao Ran to visit the piano classroom and the drum classroom before returning to the reception room.

Inside the reception room, Qiu Lefeng said, "I wonder if Mr. Xiao is satisfied with our place here?"

Xiao Ran nodded. "Very good."

Qiu Lefeng's eyebrows and eyes relaxed.

"That's good. Let me talk about the fees first?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ran shook his head, "Don't rush this. Let me talk to Si Zi about the suona first."

If the little princess doesn't come to study, he doesn't know if the second little princess of Chengyang and the little princess of Gaoyang will still be willing to come to class.

Qiu Lefeng nodded to indicate that he understood, and even left the meeting room to give them space to talk.

Xiao Ran looked at the little princess and, instead of trying to fool her, explained very seriously, "Sizi, I asked the teacher. Because you are too young, you can't play the suona, just like your teacher Yan Liben doesn't let you practice calligraphy."

Although Yan Liben is an art teacher, he also teaches calligraphy; they are essentially inseparable.

When the little princess heard that she couldn't learn, she wasn't as heartbroken as Xiao Ran had expected. Instead, she looked at Xiao Ran with wide eyes.

"The nest is too small~"

Xiao Ran nodded. "Yes."

The little princess then looked at Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang, asking with some doubt, "But can Second Sister and Seventeenth Sister do it?"

Despite her young age, the little princess understood that although Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang were older sisters, they weren't much older than her.

Xiao Ran explained earnestly, "That's because the musical instruments they learn are different from those of the rhinoceros."

The little princess lowered her head.

Seeing this, Princess Gaoyang quickly said, "It's alright, Sizi, if you don't go, I won't go either! We'll go to school together when we're older!"

Princess Chengyang nodded in agreement and patted the princess's head.

“Yeah, Sizi, it’s okay, we can learn again in two years.”

Seeing the little princess's disappointed look, Xiao Ran felt a little bad.

"Or how about this, we can learn other instruments first, and then play the suona when we're a little older, okay?" Xiao Ran suggested.

The little princess raised her head, her earlier disappointment vanishing.

Actually, when it comes to musical instruments, she initially chose one because both Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang had chosen instruments. She chose the suona because of its appearance and volume, which made the princess like it, but it wasn't necessarily the suona that she wanted.

The reason she was so disappointed just now was because she felt that she couldn't stay with Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang forever, and she didn't want them to give up, which made her a little sad.

So when she heard Xiao Ran say that, the little princess immediately stopped being sad and quickly asked, "Can I learn from the gods?"

Xiao Ran didn't know this, so he went to find Qiu Lefeng, who was sitting in the rest area.

"Teacher Qiu, I'd like to ask if there are any musical instruments suitable for children this age to learn?"

The little princess chimed in, "Yes, yes, I want to be like a duck!"

Qiu Lefeng still smiled gently.

"Of course, there are instruments like the piano, ukulele, and African drums, which are all suitable for someone her age."

Xiao Ran thought for a moment and asked, "Do we have any musical instruments here that are suitable for her to learn?"

Qiu Lefeng nodded, "Of course there are, they're all underground. Do you want to go take a look?"

Xiao Ran looked at the little princess and asked, "Does Si Zi want to go take a look?"

The little princess nodded eagerly, "Yes!"

So, led by Qiu Lefeng, they went down to the underground, which was also divided into rooms.

They didn't go to see the piano. If the little princess wanted to learn the piano, she would say that there was one at home, after all.

So they first opened the room where the African drums were placed.

Qiu Lefeng explained, "There are quite a few children learning this, and it's relatively easy to learn."

The African drum has a very ordinary appearance; it's just a simple red drum.

Looking at the drum, the little princess shook her head.

I don't like this at all~

Xiao Ran had already guessed this outcome.

Afterwards, Qiu Lefeng took them to see the ukulele.

The little princess had seen something similar at the music store last time, and she vaguely remembered it, so she pointed to the ukulele and said, "It's a violin!"

Qiu Lefeng explained with a smile, "This is not a violin, it's a ukulele."

The little princess tilted her head, "Ukulele~"

Qiu Lefeng nodded, picked up a ukulele, and casually played a short piece.

After putting it down, Qiu Lefeng said, "By the way, if you like, we also have hulusi here. Even a child as young as her can learn. Hulusi doesn't require as much lung capacity as suona."

Although the little princess seems quite interested in the ukulele, Xiao Ran still took her to see the hulusi (a type of flute).

"Tie a gourd~"

Xiao Ran nodded, "Yes, it's a gourd. Like the suona, it can be played. Si Zi, would you like to learn how to play it?"

Looking at the gourd flute in front of him, the little princess shook her head in surprise.

"I have a suona (a traditional Chinese wind instrument) now! I want to learn the ukulele!"

In the little princess's eyes, the only difference between the hulusi and the suona is that they look different, but she already has a suona, even though she can't learn to play it now. So she wants to choose one that is different.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran nodded and said, "Okay, then let's learn the ukulele."

Qiu Lefeng also said with a smile, "That's great. The three children are learning different instruments, so if they have instruments at home, they can share them."

Although it's uncertain how much a child this young will remember after going back home.

The matter was settled, and Xiao Ran also bought a ukulele for the little princess here.

Most ukuleles are natural wood-colored, but because more and more people are learning musical instruments now, and also to sell them better, Qiu Lefeng has some that have been painted.

They had all sorts of colors, even some with color blocking, and they were all very pretty. The little princess immediately took a liking to a gray-pink ukulele, and after Xiao Ran bought it, she wouldn't let go of it.

The little princess's musical instrument was also taken care of. Xiao Ran paid the fee, and then Qiu Lefeng took the little princess to the ukulele class to inform the teacher. After that, Xiao Ran and the others went back.

After returning home, the little princess still clung to her ukulele and wouldn't let go.

Xiao Ruoying had already arrived home before they returned, but when she excitedly wanted to show the photos to the little princess, she found that they were not there. Li Lizhi said that they had gone out to find the teacher.

When Xiao Ran returned home, he saw Xiao Ruoying sitting on the sofa with a pile of photos spread out on the coffee table.

Hearing the noise, Xiao Ruoying turned around. "Brother, you're back? How did the search for the teacher go?"

Xiao Ran took off his coat, sat down next to Xiao Ruoying, and sighed, "Although there were some twists and turns, it can still be considered a satisfactory ending."

Hearing this, Xiao Ruoying asked in confusion, "What's wrong? What happened?"

As she spoke, Xiao Ruoying looked at the three little princesses and then noticed the ukulele in one of their hands.

"You also bought a ukulele? This color is quite nice."

Xiao Ran said, "After we arrived at that educational institution, Fan Yin and Shi Qi had no problem, but the teacher who taught the suona said that Si Zi was too young to learn the suona, so we chose the ukulele for Si Zi."

Xiao Ruoying hadn't expected that she couldn't learn because she was too young, but she realized it when Xiao Ran mentioned it.

“That’s right, the suona is not easy to learn. Is Sizi very sad?” Xiao Ruoying asked.

Xiao Ran looked at the little princess who was playing the ukulele with the little princesses of Chengyang and Gaoyang, smiled, and said, "It seems to be going well so far. Si Zi doesn't necessarily have to play the suona. When she chose it, she thought it looked like a morning glory. She's just a child."

Although the little princess didn't seem sad, Xiao Ran and the others were still worried that she might be unhappy, so at noon Yu Shu and Xiang Cao really put their skills to good use and made the dishes that the little princess liked the most.

There were scrambled eggs with tomatoes, braised pork, sweet and sour pork ribs, and so on. The little princess ate to her heart's content.

There's even dessert after the meal.

Yu Shu and Xiang Cao even had a sudden inspiration to follow the instructions online. They bought a watermelon, cut it in half, scooped out the flesh into small balls, and carved the rind into the shape of a kitten.

Then, the scooped-out balls were put back in, and the rest were blended into juice. A few small forks and straws were also added, making it look very pretty. The little princess loved it.

"Oh, look how good it is!" The little princess looked at the watermelon in front of her.

Xiao Ran picked up a piece of watermelon and fed it to the little princess.

"Taste the rhinoceros and see if it's sweet."

Yu Shu and Xiangcao bought seedless watermelons, which were very satisfying to eat.

The little princess bit into the watermelon that Xiao Ran had shoved into her mouth and chewed it.

"So sweet~"

The little princess loves sweet things the most.

Xiao Ran handed the straw to the little princess.

"You can also drink fruit juice, Sizi, have a taste."

This juice isn't just watermelon juice; Yu Shu also added some Yakult, which adds another layer of flavor.

"Wow~ It tastes so good~" The little princess cupped her face in her hands, her expression full of surprise.

Then, the little princess looked at Xiao Ran and said, "Little Nang Jun~ I want to drink this duck tomorrow too~"

Xiao Ran nodded, "Okay, then let's use water bottles to carry them to school tomorrow, okay?"

The little princess nodded quickly, "Okay~"

After saying that, she went to drink her watermelon juice, completely satisfied.

While drinking, the little princess pointed at the TV and said, "Little Nangjun~ I want to see Princess Kangfafa."

Xiao Ran immediately remembered that it was the one he had mentioned that morning, so he started searching for it, but couldn't find it after searching for a long time.

Xiao Ruoying came downstairs and saw him searching on his phone. She asked, "What are you looking for?"

Xiao Ran said, "I remember there was a Barbie animated series, about a little fairy with wings or something."

Xiao Ruoying thought for a moment and said, "Brother, you must be mistaken. Isn't that some butterfly princess?"

Xiao Ran slapped his forehead.

"Yes, it looked like some kind of butterfly, but I remembered it wrong, I only remembered the flower."

As he spoke, Xiao Ran began searching for keywords and finally found it.

Seeing the princess with butterfly wings, the little princess even forgot to eat the watermelon.

"So beautiful! Even cuter than a dancing princess!"

After all, a princess with butterfly wings looks more dreamy.

After the three little princesses ate some watermelon, Xiao Ran wouldn't let them eat any more.

Although it's not so cold now, watermelon itself is considered cooling, so it's best for the three little princesses to eat less of it.

Without watermelon, the little princess ran to the snack cabinet with her short legs, took out a small bag of beef jerky, other snacks, and a few chicken feet.

Looking at the overflowing snacks that even the little princess couldn't hold, Xiao Ruoying chuckled and said, "Sizi is really greedy. Can she finish all of these?"

The little princess, clutching her snacks, wobbled over to the sofa, placed them on the coffee table, and then said earnestly, "I'm all set!"

Xiao Ruoying pinched the little princess's cheek, "Alright, alright, our Sizi can finish it."

The little princess shared her snacks with the Chengyang and Gaoyang princesses, and the three princesses watched cartoons while eating their snacks.

Xiao Ran then focused his attention on the photos that Xiao Ruoying hadn't put away yet.

"These are the photos that were developed today?"

Xiao Ruoying nodded as she selected photos to put into a small album.

"Where did this photo album come from?" Xiao Ran asked.

Xiao Ruoying said, "I ordered it when I went to get my photos developed last time, but I haven't taken it out yet."

She went upstairs to get the photo album after finishing her meal.

The album cover features a photo of the three little princesses wearing fluffy tulle dresses.

Xiao Ruoying developed a lot of photos this time, not just those taken during this trip, but also photos she had taken of her three little princesses at home in the past. (End of this chapter)
