When the princess gets married, the general must not flee

As they were talking, Qing Shi had already brought her brother over. It must be said that the Yu family's appearance genes were really outstanding. Although Qing Yan was only eleven or twelve years old, he already showed the demeanor of a gentleman.

There was a hint of coldness in his eyes and he did not greet anyone. Under Qingshi's guidance, he reluctantly came to the pavilion. He did not sit with everyone else, but just walked to the bench in the porch and stared at the scenery outside the pavilion in a daze.

"Do you want to eat this?" Bai Xin tentatively took a snack and handed it to him.

Qing Yan looked back and said, "No, thank you!" and then ignored her.

He is quite polite and can even look people in the eye when talking. It seems that he just simply doesn't want to communicate with others.

"Qing Yan!" Before Yu Qingshi could stop him, Qing Yan seemed to have seen something and jumped down from the bench again. He squatted on the ground, staring at something, motionless.

Qing Shi breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the distance to the ground was not high, so Qing Yan should be fine.

Qing Shi was about to go around to the corridor to pull him, but was caught by Bai Xin. She waved her hand, then she stepped over the bench in the corridor, jumped down, and squatted beside Qing Yan.

"Do you like watching ants move?" Bai Xin stayed beside him and watched for a while, then asked casually.

"Ants moving? Are they moving? Where are they moving to? Why are they moving?" Qing Yan heard Bai Xin's words, looked up at her with bright eyes, as if he was very curious about her words.

Normally, he saw ants coming out in groups and was very curious about what they were doing, but all the adults said that they were not doing their job properly, that they were stupid and that they were dull, so they tried to avoid them as much as possible.

Today, this sister actually told him that this was ants moving. He was very happy that someone finally understood what he was thinking.

"Because it's about to rain!" Bai Xin looked at the sky and replied with a smile.

"Is it going to rain?" Qing Yan looked at the sky in disbelief. Although it was already afternoon, the sun was setting and there was no sign of rain at all.

Then he asked, "Why would they move if it's going to rain?"

"Because you see, the place where they live now is very close to the pond. When it rains, the water level will rise and flood their home, so they have to move! Move to a safer place." Bai Xin explained to him patiently.

"So that's how it is!" Qing Yan lowered his head and muttered to himself, as if every time he saw ants moving in groups, it would rain soon.

"Then!" Qing Yan was a little excited, as if he had many questions that needed answers: "Do you know why boiling water can flush open the lid?"

"The bigger the fire, the merrier the lid jumps. It's really amazing!"

"So you burned down the kitchen?" Bai Xin joked.

"Hmm!" Qing Yan lowered his head when he heard his scandal was exposed.

"Actually, it's because water vapor can be converted into power, which can break open the lid of the pot. The more firewood you add, the more water vapor there is, the stronger its power becomes, so the lid is as happy as dancing." Bai Xin thought he looked very cute and continued.

"Power?" Qing Yan wondered, "Does that mean there is enough energy to push heavier objects away, or even send things flying into the sky?"

"Of course!" Bai Xin answered affirmatively.

"Then do you know why the water flows out of the water tank and flows to the ground?" Qing Yan continued to ask.

"I jumped up from the rockery and tried very hard, so why did I still fall into the water?"

"So, you smashed the water tank at home? And jumped into the lake?" Bai Xin joked again.

Qingyan lowered his head.

"I'll tell you if you promise not to do such dangerous things next time!" Bai Xin asked him to promise.

Qingyan's eyes lit up again and he nodded.

"Because, because the earth we live on has gravity, so everything will fall down!" Bai Xin thanked himself for having learned about the law of universal gravitation.

"Gravity?" Qing Yan thought for a moment and asked again: "How do you know there is gravity?"

"Mr. Newton told me!" Bai Xin looked at him with a smile.

"Who is Mr. Newton?" Qing Yan was puzzled: "But what he said is not right. Look, the stars and the moon in the sky didn't fall down!"

"The stars in the sky are not on our planet." Bai Xin said with a half-seriously voice.

"You mean, there is another sky outside our sky?" Qing Yan asked in confusion and excitement.

"Well, yes!" Bai Xin nodded.

"Then are there people like us on the moon, or is there really a Sister Chang'e?" Qing Yan pursued relentlessly.

"I don't know whether there is a Chang'e sister on the moon!" Bai Xin lowered her head, looked at him and said, "But there are dreams on the moon!"

"You can go and see for yourself later!"

"Can I go and take a look?" Qing Yan widened his eyes in disbelief.

"Yes, if you read more books, your dreams and ideas may come true!" Bai Xin gave her an affirmative answer.

She also wanted to go and see if there were any traces of her old family left behind, as she also missed home.

"But it's not in these books!" Qing Yan lowered his head in disappointment.

"Then would you like to go to my academy to study? I have a lot of books there!" Bai Xin invited him tentatively.

"But can I read?"

"They all say I'm stupid!" Qing Yan whispered

"How do you know if you don't try? Don't you really like to try things?" Bai Xin comforted him.

"Then let me think about it." Qing Yan turned his head and thought.

"Then think about it carefully, don't make me wait too long!"

"I'll wait for you upstairs!" Bai Xin stood up, dusted off the dust on his body, and returned to the pavilion.

"You must be sweating all over!" Li Ze teased when he saw him come back. In fact, they had been listening to the conversation just now with their ears perked up.

Everyone was surprised, except Li Ze.

"That's right. The little knowledge I learned during the nine years of compulsory education is almost used up. If I ask any more questions, I'll be exposed!" Bai Xin quickly drank a sip of tea to calm himself. It's really not possible to coax a child without some education nowadays.

"If you keep talking, I think you're going to go to heaven!" Li Ze teased.

Bai Xin rolled her eyes at him.

"Why are you guys saying things I can't understand again?" Mo Tian wailed curiously.

Except for Min'er who was used to their frequent encrypted calls, everyone else was curious about the way they spoke.

"He actually talked to you for so long?" Qing Shi was surprised and said, "Even if it was me and my mother, he would not talk to us for more than three sentences!"

"He may just not want to talk much with ordinary people like you on weekdays." Bai Xin teased.

Qing Shi glared at her helplessly.

Ye Qi shook his head helplessly, thinking with a smile on his face, I thought she was being humble when she came here, but it seems she is still the same person.

"Just kidding," Bai Xin looked at Qing Shi's helpless expression and said jokingly, "I just happened to cater to his preferences!"

"Let me talk about serious matters. If he wants to study at our Lishan Academy, would you be willing to let him come?" Bai Xin looked at her and said.

"Of course he's willing, but can he really read? Will he cause any trouble for you?" Yu Qingshi asked worriedly.

"It's better than sending him to Zhuangzi!"

"Yes, those two people don't have any good intentions!" Yu Qingshi made up his mind, "It just depends on whether Qingyan is willing or not!" Yu Qingshi was afraid that Qingyan would resist.

Suddenly, dark clouds covered the sky, and in an instant, rain fell from the sky.

"Qingyan, come up quickly. You'll get sick if you get wet in the rain!" Qingshi saw that it suddenly started to rain, and hurriedly reminded Qingyan who was still by the pool.

"Sister, I want to go to your academy to study!" Qing Yan said excitedly in the rain.

The excitement infected Qingshi. She had never seen her brother so excited about something.

While everyone was watching the excited look of the children in the rain, Ye Qi inadvertently saw Bai Xin and Li Ze smile at each other and then instantly return to normal, and his heart sank.
