Chapter 225 Digging for Wild Vegetables on the Mountain!
When they were leaving, Master Xuanqing gave the little princess a snow-white rabbit. The little princess loved it so much that she didn't even want to look at the scenery outside when they left; her heart and eyes were only on her little rabbit.
The little rabbit was well-adjusted in the princess's arms, lying motionless and chewing on a piece of green vegetable.
When they returned to Kaolao Village, the little princess hugged her little rabbit and looked at Xiao Ran.
"Little Nang-kun~ Little Bunny and I will live together~"
Looking into the little princess's big, watery eyes, Xiao Ran hardened his heart and refused.
"Sizi, the little rabbit can't sleep on the kang (heated brick bed). We need to make a nest for it so it can sleep by itself."
The little princess looked at the little rabbit in her arms.
"I just want to cuddle it and sleep~"
Li Lizhi gently took the little princess's hand, "But if you're holding the little rabbit, what will happen to your toy? And the little rabbit will hop around everywhere. If you don't take care of it, it will run away and you won't be able to see it anymore."
Xiao Ran nodded in agreement.
The little princess sighed dramatically, "Alright~"
Upon learning that a burrow needed to be built for the rabbit, craftsman Liu volunteered. Knowing that the little princess loved the rabbit, he planned to make a very luxurious rabbit burrow, based on his drawing, which, when enlarged, would resemble a palace for people to live in.
Of course, that's just on the surface.
Although it wasn't that serious, Liu the craftsman said that if he was going to do it, he would do it to the best of his ability, and he said he would do it very quickly, so Xiao Ran didn't bother with it.
However, it's definitely not going to happen today, so tonight, the little rabbit will have to stay in an empty room covered with thatch.
The next morning, Xiao Ran came out of his room and found that the little princess had already woken up.
"Why is Sizi up so early today?" Xiao Ran asked, somewhat surprised.
Li Lizhi said with a smile, "Sizi is in a hurry to see her little rabbit."
The little princess nodded, "Mmm-hmm~ Kang Xiaotuji Ya~"
Craftsman Liu didn't sleep all night, he was making a rabbit hutch. According to his estimate, it wouldn't be finished until evening, so the little princess and her friends could only go to that empty room to see the rabbits.
Xiao Ran gave them a bunch of green vegetables.
"Go feed the rabbits."
The little princess cheered, took the vegetables, and went to find the little rabbit.
When I opened the door, I saw the little princess squatting on the thatch, with a blade of thatch in her mouth.
The little rabbit was just nibbling on some grass to gnaw on, but to the little princess and the other little ones, it seemed like the little rabbit was so hungry that it could only eat grass, and they all felt extremely sorry for it.
The little princess even held the green vegetables to the little rabbit's mouth.
"Little bunny~ Ni kuai qi ya~"
The little rabbit was very cooperative; it twitched its nose, then opened its mouth, pulled up some greens, and chewed them. Apart from its mouth, it didn't move at all, looking rather dazed.
The little princess reached out and touched the little rabbit, and the little rabbit didn't flinch.
After finishing one of the green vegetables, the little princess of Chengyang quickly handed her another one.
Although the little rabbit is small, it eats very quickly, and each piece of vegetable or meat visibly diminishes with each bite.
The little ones took turns feeding the rabbits, then chattered excitedly about how cute they were.
It wasn't until Xiao Ran finished exercising and went to call them back for breakfast that the little ones came out of their room.
"Let's go wash our hands and then have dinner."
Xiao Ran took the kids to wash their hands and then had breakfast.
After breakfast, it's time to take the little princesses to class.
Xiao Ran also plans to give a lesson today, mainly on mathematics.
The atmosphere during Xiao Ran's classes was quite relaxed, and the children listened with great interest.
After Xiao Ran finished speaking, the next class was Wang Ji's. He watched as the child, who had been laughing and actively answering questions in the previous class, fell silent the moment Xiao Ran entered.
At that moment, Wang Ji also fell silent.
However, everyone has their own teaching style, and it's impossible to make him like Xiao Ran, so Wang Ji continued to teach at his own pace.
noon.
After lunch, Xiao Ran let the little princess and the others rest for a while. When they woke up, they found that Zhang Jinhe had come over and was chatting with Li Lizhi in the living room.
"Jinniang," Xiao Ran greeted Zhang Jinhe.
Zhang Jinhe said with a smile, "Young master, I've come to find Wu Niang to dig for wild vegetables."
"Digging for wild vegetables? Are there wild vegetables now?" Xiao Ran didn't know much about this either.
Zhang Jinhe nodded, "Yes, the shepherd's purse is very tender and delicious right now, and it makes a wonderful soup."
"What's so delicious?" The little princess heard something tasty as soon as she arrived and ran over immediately.
Xiao Ran smiled and pinched the little princess's cheek.
"Speaking of wild vegetables, is Sizi going to dig some?"
The little princess nodded quickly.
"I want to dig up some vegetables! I really want some vegetables!"
Zhang Jinhe said with a smile, "Yes, take Sizi to dig for wild vegetables, and then come back and have the young master cook something delicious for you."
Then, Zhang Jinhe looked at Xiao Ran and said, "These wild vegetable pancakes are also delicious."
Given Zhang Jinhe's family's circumstances, they certainly didn't need to dig for wild vegetables to survive. However, there were only so many things to eat, so digging for wild vegetables was a way to change things up and also a form of entertainment. They would just go home when they got tired.
At this moment, Princess Chengyang and her friends also came out. The little princess couldn't wait to run out and chattered about going to dig for wild vegetables.
Even though the little princess's pronunciation is unclear, I don't know how these little guys manage to understand her.
Xiao Ran gave each of the little ones a basket to carry on their backs, which was actually just two straps sewn onto a basket.
They also brought a few small knives, which were for the adults like Xiao Ran and Li Lizhi. As for the little ones, they brought a few small medicine shovels, which would be enough for them.
A large group of people went up the mountain. There were other villagers on the mountain as well. When they saw Xiao Ran and his group coming up, they were very enthusiastic and even offered to give them the wild vegetables they had dug.
Xiao Ran waved his hands repeatedly, "Everyone can eat by themselves. I just brought the kids over to join in the fun."
The villagers teased the little princess with a few laughs, and seeing that Xiao Ran really didn't want it, they went to dig up their own.
Xiao Ran and his group walked deeper into the mountains. Before they even saw any wild vegetables, the little princess's eyes were drawn to the wildflowers.
"Little Nang-kun~ It's hair~"
The little princess pointed to a yellow flower and said.
Xiao Ran stopped and bent down to look in the direction she pointed. It was a cluster of newly blooming dandelions.
"Sizi, this is a dandelion. After a while, when its flowers wither, it will turn into little umbrellas, and when the wind blows, it will fly into the sky."
The little princess's eyes widened. "Wow~ It can fly~ How amazing!"
Xiao Ran was amused by the little princess's words, but still said, "Yes, it's very powerful." "Sizi, this is also a wild vegetable," Zhang Jinhe said.
Xiao Ran nodded. "Yes, I know dandelions are edible, but can we still eat the ones that have already flowered?"
Zhang Jinhe nodded, "It's possible, but the taste might not be as good."
As long as it was edible, Xiao Ran decided to dig it out, but unexpectedly, the little princess volunteered.
"Come dig for ducks!"
Xiao Ran stopped in his tracks with a smile.
"Alright, let's dig with the rhinoceros then."
The little princess said with a grin, "Digging vegetables~ digging lots~ for Mother Seven Ducks~"
As she spoke, the little princess picked up a small shovel, barely bigger than her palm, and started digging into the dandelions beside her.
But she was too weak and didn't know how to use her strength. The shovel couldn't even be inserted into the soil. Instead, she exhausted herself and became panting heavily, her little face turning red.
"Little Princess~" the little princess asked Xiao Ran for help, looking aggrieved.
Xiao Ran quickly went over, squatted down beside her, held her small hand, and slowly inserted the shovel into the soil at the base of the shepherd's purse. With a gentle pry, a dandelion was dug out.
Seeing the dandelion she had tried so hard to dig out being dug up, the little princess cheered.
Wow~ Little Nang is so amazing~
Xiao Ran put the dandelion she had dug up into her basket. "Alright, we've found one dandelion. Let's keep looking."
The group continued walking and soon found a clump of shepherd's purse.
It was Third Sister who discovered this; when it comes to digging for wild vegetables, Third Sister is much better than Zhang Jinhe.
Third Sister pointed to a clump of shepherd's purse and said, "This is shepherd's purse. The edges of the leaves are serrated, and the roots are white. When you dig it up, you have to dig down along the roots and not break them. That way it will taste better."
As she spoke, Third Sister skillfully picked up a shovel and dug out a shepherd's purse.
When the little princess saw that her aunt had dug up shepherd's purse, she squatted down with great interest, picked up a small shovel and dug up the shepherd's purse. Although most of it was broken off, it was still edible, and the little princess dug with great enthusiasm.
"Little Nangjun, look at this huge duck!"
The little princess held up a whole shepherd's purse, bigger than her palm, and looked at Xiao Ran excitedly.
Xiao Ran walked over and couldn't help but laugh: "Si Zi is really amazing, digging up such a big one. But this shepherd's purse is a bit old, the leaves are turning yellow, so it won't taste as good."
He took a tender shepherd's purse from his bamboo basket. "Look," he said, "you should dig up the kind with bright green leaves that hasn't flowered yet; those are the ones that taste best."
Upon hearing that it "didn't taste good," the little princess frowned slightly, tossed aside the large shepherd's purse in her hand with some disdain, picked up the tender shepherd's purse Xiao Ran had given her, looked it over, and nodded earnestly, "Wow, that's delicious!"
Seeing this, Li Lizhi smiled and said, "Sizi, don't rush, take your time. There are plenty of tender shepherd's purse here. I just saw a clump over there, let's go dig it together."
“Okay~” The little princess immediately followed Li Lizhi and squatted down to dig wild vegetables.
The sun shone warmly on them, and the baskets on their backs were filled with fresh wild vegetables, including shepherd's purse, purslane, and some wild vegetables that Auntie San said could be used in cold dishes.
Even little ones like Yan Yao and Princess Chengyang dug up a lot of wild vegetables.
Xiao Ran looked at the sky and said, "We've dug up enough wild vegetables, let's go back."
They came out to dig for wild vegetables, mostly just for fun. Now that they've dug up enough wild vegetables to eat, they plan to go back.
On the way back, the little princess skipped and jumped happily.
The basket didn't have a lid, and the little princess's basket was very full, so Xiao Ran and the others walked behind and watched the little princess in front of them, jumping and humming a song while dropping wild vegetables from her basket.
Xiao Ran and the others exchanged glances and smiled silently.
The little princess heard them laughing, turned around curiously, and saw the wild vegetables on the ground.
There are vegetables here~
The little princess was overjoyed. She hadn't expected there to be wild vegetables lying on the ground. She quickly bent down, picked them up, and ran to Xiao Ran.
"Little Nangjun, come quick~ So many vegetables~" the little princess said, pointing to a bunch of wild vegetables that she had just dropped on the ground.
Then she held up a wild vegetable she had picked up, and said, "Little Nang-kun~ Let the ducks out~"
She pointed to her small basket and asked Xiao Ran to put it in for her.
Xiao Ran suppressed a laugh and put the wild vegetables in. The little princess was delighted and tugged at Xiao Ran, saying, "Little Prince~ hurry and get the vegetables~"
The little princess picked them herself and urged Xiao Ran to pick them too, afraid that these wild vegetables would grow legs and run away.
Princess Yuzhang couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing.
Her smile made everyone else smile too.
Xiao Ran couldn't keep up the act any longer.
“Sizi, these wild vegetables all fell out of your basket.”
The little princess scrunched up her little face.
"No way~ I'm here~"
As she spoke, the little princess turned her back and asked Xiao Ran to take her basket down.
Xiao Ran followed her instructions, took the basket off his back, and placed it on the ground.
The little princess was stunned when she saw that her basket, which was originally full of wild vegetables, was now only half full.
Her basket was already quite small, and a little jostling would cause a lot of spillage; it would be considered a lot if half of it remained.
Li Lizhi said with a smile, "I told you I'd only fill it halfway with wild vegetables, but you insisted on filling it completely, and now they've all fallen out."
The little princess pouted, and after a long pause, said in a pitiful voice, "This little vegetable is naughty~"
Xiao Ran and the others were so amused by the little princess that they couldn't stop laughing.
However, seeing the little princess's aggrieved look, Xiao Ran quickly went to comfort her.
"Sizi is alright, we've already found it, right? Let's just pick it up, okay?"
The little princess then became happy.
"Mmm-hmm~"
Then the little princess continued to happily pick wild vegetables. Every time she picked one, she would run to her basket, put it in, and run back and forth several times before she finished filling it.
Xiao Ran and the others didn't urge them, just watched the little princess run back and forth, and the little princess of Chengyang and the third sister Di Renjie and the other little ones also helped.
After picking all the wild vegetables, the little princess became much more careful and stopped running and jumping. She slowly followed Xiao Ran, nervously holding onto her baby carrier strap, afraid that the wild vegetables would fall out.
"Little Nangjun~ My vegetables~" The little princess grabbed Xiao Ran, wanting him to check if any of the vegetables in her basket had fallen out.
Xiao Ran smiled and said, "Don't worry, Si Zi, you didn't fall out."
The little princess let out a long sigh of relief, looking relieved.
A tiny, three-headed creature, acting like an adult, looks incredibly cute.
Li Lizhi walked over and asked, "Sizi, would you like some of the wild vegetables to stay here? That way they won't fall out." (End of Chapter)
