Chapter 62 Arabic Numerals!
Xiao Ran took out his phone. "Get ready. We can film individual shots or shots of several people together, it's fine. Who wants to go first?"

Upon seeing the phone, the three little girls volunteered.

"Little Nangjun~ I'm here~" the little princess quickly replied, "I'm here~"

The three little ones didn't know what Xiao Ran was doing before, but they found out after seeing the photos.

"Alright, alright, let's go first, Sizi!"

The little princess was holding the dog and smiling brightly.

Perhaps the little princess also has a talent for taking photos, knowing how to strike cute poses.

Actually, the little girl doesn't need that; she's cute on her own.

"It's my turn!" Princess Chengyang ran over quickly.

In comparison, Third Sister was much more shy and introverted, lacking the confidence and charm of the two little princesses.

"Alright, Fifth Sister, Jinniang, who wants to come?" Xiao Ran asked.

The three little girls have demonstrated how to take photos; now they all know how.

Upon hearing Xiao Ran's shout, the group exchanged bewildered glances.

Li Lizhi is a guest, and it is not appropriate for her to overshadow the host.

Zhang Jinhe and Zhang Erya were also a little embarrassed.

Their gazes fell on Li Lizhi, who held a high position.

"Fifth Sister, you go first!"

"Okay!" Li Lizhi looked at it and picked up the cat next to her.

Li Lizhi gently cupped the cat's head with her slender hands. Standing there in her green robe, she resembled a jade bamboo in the wind. Before she even posed, the light and shadow in the camera lens were perfectly harmonious.

A gentle smile and a lingering gaze evoked a radiant moonlight; when that image appeared on the screen, even the cat curled up in the arms seemed to be touched by a touch of moonlight.

Xiao Ran had a different understanding of the phrase "a person with a wealth of knowledge naturally exudes elegance" when he saw Li Lizhi.

She was always so elegant and composed; every smile and frown was a delight to behold.

Princess Yuzhang and Li Lizhi are similar in appearance and personality, since they were both raised by Empress Zhangsun.

In comparison, Cheng Tiehuan and Zhang Jinhe were much more rugged.

Xiao Ran found it hard to understand how Li Lizhi and Cheng Tiehuan could end up together.

Xiao Ran originally wanted to call Zhang Dalang, but noticed that Zhang Erya was also looking for him.

But Zhang Dalang went to work by the pond.

"Fifth Uncle, you should have a couple too," Xiao Ran called out.

Li Wu was a little embarrassed, but he nodded anyway. It was hard to refuse; this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Li Wu didn't make any fancy moves; he just stood there, and the imposing aura of one man guarding the pass against ten thousand men was immediately apparent.

There's a reason why he could be with several princesses while Li Shimin was away.

"The photos won't be available until tomorrow, so we can't get them today." Xiao Ran couldn't go into the RV right now.

The cooked corn was also served, but since there wasn't enough, Zhang Erya broke it in two.

You can try them all.

"Ok?"

Zhang Erya put down the corn, and everyone looked over.

The flavor of young corn is actually quite strong.

"What's this duck?" The little princess leaned closer and sniffed it.

The little princess is a bit timid, but she's not shy about it.

"Sizi, this is corn, it's very sweet and delicious," Third Sister explained.

"Really~" The little princess reached out her little hand, wanting to touch it.

"Sizi, it's hot." Xiao Ran picked up the chopsticks next to him, stuck them in the chopsticks, and handed them to the little princess. "This is fine!"

"Hehe~ Yeah yeah~"

"Thank you so much, Little Nang!"

The same applies to several others.

"Wow~ Good, good~" The little princess gently bit into a kernel of corn.

Li Lizhi's eyes lit up; it was another new variety she had never seen or tasted before.

The little princess's delicious recipes now have another option.

"Young master, can this corn be grown in the Tang Dynasty?" Li Lizhi was very concerned about this question.

"Theoretically it's possible, but it's unlikely," Xiao Ran said helplessly.

Potatoes and sweet potatoes are fine, but corn is too young.

"Why?" Li Lizhi asked quickly.

"Because this is too young to be used as seeds."

Li Lizhi nodded when she saw the corn, "I see!"

It's a bit of a shame, this corn is really delicious.

The others just wanted to try some, hoping the three little girls would eat more.

After finishing their meal, the three little girls sat on a rock, drawing and writing on the ground with sticks in their hands.

Third Sister teaches the two little princesses to write Arabic numerals.

The Tang Dynasty didn't have it, so the little princess certainly wouldn't know.

Previously, Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang had noticed the numbers on the ground, but they didn't look closely and assumed that Third Sister had just drawn them randomly.

This time, something seemed different. Princess Yuzhang leaned closer and asked, "Third Sister, what are you drawing, Sizi?"

Row after row, it looks like writing.

“Sister Niu, this is what you call it, Uncle?” the little princess said in a serious tone.

"what?"

Princess Yuzhang had no way of guessing this unfamiliar term.

"Sixth Sister, these are Arabic numerals, these are 12345," Princess Chengyang said, pointing.

Princess Yuzhang became interested, and after Princess Chengyang explained it, Princess Yuzhang understood.

Is the next one 11, 12, or 13?

"It's a duck, it's a duck~"

Princess Yuzhang asked thoughtfully, "Who taught this?"

“It was the young master who taught him,” Third Sister said.

"Third Sister, what about one hundred? How do you write that?"

Upon hearing Princess Yuzhang's question, Third Sister quickly wrote 100 on the ground.
"This is interesting, it's great!"

Princess Yuzhang has now figured it out and finds it quite convenient.

After writing for a while, the three little girls chased the chickens, ducks, and geese around the yard with sticks.

Perhaps because Xiao Hei was behind them, the chickens, ducks, and geese were all scared.

Every now and then, eggs could be found at the base of the wall, which would make the three little girls happy for a long time.

This is an experience that you can't get in the palace.

Li Lizhi smiled and wouldn't stop her two younger sisters from playing. As for whether their clothes got dirty, it didn't matter at all.

As long as the two little princesses don't get hurt.

At noon, Xiao Ran stir-fried tomatoes and stewed a lot of fish.

Princess Yuzhang was interested in Xiao Ran's cooking skills and watched him cook.

Xiao Ran didn't mind a few people learning it; it wasn't anything special.

After all, Li Shimin, Li Lizhi, and the others had given Xiao Ran far too much.

After finishing their meal, Xiao Ran didn't go to the pond. Instead, he took the three little ones for a stroll in the village.

Every household is preparing to dry persimmon cakes. They can sell for a high price, and it's not difficult, so it's definitely something everyone has to do.

Zhang Jinhe also told the others that there was no need to worry about not being able to sell the persimmon cakes; he would buy as many as there were.

Every household can see the clothes drying.

“Young master, Third Mistress, the two young ladies are so beautiful,” Third Grandmother said with a smile.

“Third Grandmother!” Xiao Ran called out.

The two little princesses joined in the chanting; they may be young, but they are very sensible.

“Young master, this one seems to be rotten.” Third Grandmother asked, holding up a persimmon.

"Third Grandmother, is the peeler knife clean?"

"It's been washed, but there's still alcohol in it; that's for disinfecting," the third grandmother said.

"Was it rinsed with boiling water before drying?"

"Boiling water?" Third Grandmother belatedly realized, "Look at my memory, I'm getting senile."

"That's all for now. A few might rot. Remember to boil water and rinse the rest with it." Xiao Ran understood that the old man was getting on in years and was prone to forgetting things.

"Okay, okay, I won't forget this time."

Xiao Ran's purpose in strolling around was to check if there were any problems in other people's homes, so that he could correct them in time if he found any.
