Chapter 158: The Daughter of the Sea
"My patience doesn't last more than two minutes!"
In the midsummer of July, Nie Zheng's words were as cold as a blade.
Scold---
Lao Hu gasped.
With the oven-like sun on his head, he blamed the inexplicable shiver on the wet water.
He followed Shen Wan to the north and south at the age of 16, and in the past ten years, everyone knows that he is Shen Wan's spokesperson.
As the spokesperson of the rich, the responsibility is extraordinary, those things that shine and have a halo on his head, naturally it is not his turn, he does nothing more than some gray area things, that is, things that cross the line.
He was able to gain Shen Wan's trust thanks to his loyalty and courage.
Alas---
Lao Hu put on the ruthlessness of his youth and confronted Nie Zheng, and two seconds later, he let out a sigh in his heart.
"Nie Zheng is just a thirty-year-old man, he doesn't have any brilliant past, why is my heart trembling, no, my feet are too...."
"Well, it must be that I am now famous and rich, the so-called porcelain does not touch the cylinder tile, it must be so!"
Lao Hu finally found a reason to exonerate.
"Nie Zheng, my old Hu is not easy to mess with, you will regret what you said today!"
Lao Hu is like the defeated rocket regiment in "Pokemon", leaving a word, holding his hands, and leaving high-spirited.
It's just that....
The foot that didn't obey the call went faster and faster, and when it came to the end, it turned out to be galloping....
"What's wrong with me?"
Nie Zheng didn't pay attention to when Lao Hu left.
"My patience won't last more than two minutes? Is this my line?"
Nie Zheng scratched his head, he is a killer, when do you need to talk nonsense to deal with a person, where will you give two minutes of patience to others, isn't this a killer's joke?
"Hey!"
Nie Zheng looked towards the sea, showing a childlike smile, and he found the answer.
Yes, it's Qingqing, it's this little girl who warms her cold heart, and it's this little girl who makes her worry about everything, this is a happy concern.
And, of course, Yang Ying, well, and Tang Ning.
And also....
The girl's big penetrating eyes ....
Nie has a coup d'Γ©tat, and he is becoming more and more adaptable to the world and the role of a father.
"Daddy, Daddy, what is Princess Angela talking about?
Qingqing's soft body like a marshmallow hugged her father tightly, and at some point, the little girl had an extra conch in her hand, which was being put on her father's ears at the moment.
"Well, it's the sound of the sea!"
"Why is it the sound of the sea?" Qingqing shook her little head triumphantly, "but my aunt said it was Princess Angela's voice. β
"Well, the voices of Princess Angela and her five sisters are inside. Nie Zheng hugged the little princess, "The conch slept on the bottom of the sea, hiding all the sounds of the bottom of the sea inside. β
"Princess Angela has five sisters?" Qingqing looked at her father with admiration, "Qingqing doesn't know!"
"Yes, there are five sisters, and they are all daughters of the sea. β
"The daughter of the sea?" Qingqing's eyes were full of surprise, "That's even more powerful than Qingqing, Qingqing is the daughter of the black prince of the white horse." β
Forehead...
Charming Black Prince!
Nie Zheng meowed at Tang Ning, who was eating and smiling, with a black line on his face.
It's all to blame this guy for changing his nickname.
Ha, let's flat, I also gave her the nickname Donald Duck, even if it is black, it is a prince, it is better than the duck.
"Yes, haven't Qingqing heard the story of "Daughter of the Sea"?"
"Speak!
Qingqing happily held her father's hand, and her father hadn't told her daughter a story yet.
Different from Qingqing's happy expectation, Tang Ning on the side looked serious, nervously and desperately waved his hand to Nie Zheng.
As soon as Nie Zheng pondered for a while, he understood that this fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen was very tragic, it was simply a very cruel story, and Tang Ning did not want Qingqing to hear this dark fairy tale.
Nie Zheng has another idea, children are innocent and easy to fantasize about beautiful things, so he told her this story and let her know that not all princes are cute.
"In the sea, there are six mermaid princesses, and the most beautiful is of course the little princess, well, the name is Princess Angela. β
Nie Zheng didn't know the name of the mermaid princess in "Daughter of the Sea", so he just said Princess Angela.
Tang Ning watched Nie Zheng hold his daughter in his arms, knowing that he couldn't stop it no matter what, a good royal feast, but at the end, it was going to be overshadowed.
"I also said that Nie Zheng has changed, and the result is still the same!"
Tang Ning angrily forked a piece of lobster meat left for Nie Zheng, and wanted to send it to his mouth to take revenge on this guy, but after all, he still put it down, this world is delicious, he has already enjoyed it, and he can't eat everyone else's share, although he is very hateful.
"Grandma told Princess Angela about the sea every day, and Princess Angela longed for it very much, but she was not yet fifteen years old, so she couldn't go up to see what was going on..."
"Ah, why can't you go up before you are fifteen?" Qingqing said angrily, "No wonder Qingqing shouted loudly, Princess Angela didn't come up to talk to Qingqing." β
"Because children can't run around, what if they are eaten by sharks?" Teacher Tang Ning took the opportunity to preach again, "Just like Qingqing, now that you are a child, you can't run around alone, you have to go with adults wherever you go..."
"Is it possible for Qingqing to run around alone at the age of 15?"
Qingqing's hopeful little eyes looked at her aunt.
β18οΌβ
"25!no!35!"
It was Tang Ning who said 18, and it was Nie Zheng who said 35, after he said 35, he was still very sad in his heart, if his lovely daughter left him at 35, it would still be very sad, this is Chi Guoguo's father's mentality and father-in-law's mentality.
"Poof! poor Qingqing. β
Tang Ning smiled and touched Qingqing's little head, but his smile suddenly retracted, "If my father hadn't left me, he would have been like Nie Zheng, who still treated me like a child at the age of 35." β
"Princess Angela finally waited until she was 15 years old, and she swam to the surface for the first time..."
Qingqing's big eyes were full of hope.
"The sea is so beautiful, Princess Angela is swimming around happily, and suddenly she sees a boat, and there is a beautiful song on board, it turns out that the prince is having a dance party on the ship..."
"Hah...."
Qingqing's appearance became very sweet, and together with the 23-year-old Tang Ning, she instantly became a little fan girl, and it seems that the prince is attractive to girls of any age.
"Suddenly, a strong wind blew on the sea, and the prince's ship was blown down, and all the people on board fell into the water...."
"Princess Angela, save the prince!" Qingqing shouted nervously.
"Hey, Princess Angela naturally saved the prince, she still likes the prince, she decided to go ashore to find the prince, but the witch told her that if she wants to go ashore, she must be like a human, have two legs, and she can't turn back into a mermaid in the future, and, moreover, she has to..."
Nie Zheng was stunned and stunned, according to the plot of the story, the mermaid princess was going to be cut off by the witch, and she had to endure great pain, separating the fish's tail and turning it into two legs, thinking about the bloody scene, sparing him as a hard-hearted killer, and he couldn't say it, it should be said, in front of the cute little princess, he couldn't say it.
"Daddy, Daddy, what more?"
Qingqing hurriedly urged, Tang Ning was also nervous, she knew this story, but she was not good at adapting on the spot, and she didn't know what to say for a while.
"I can't speak. β
Nie Zheng said it lightly, and Tang Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why can't you speak?" Qingqing wanted to chase and fight hard, and ask what was going on.
"Because the secrets of the seabed cannot be known to humans, in case they do..."
Nie Zheng also finished for a while, he was about to say, "What if I find out and everyone goes to catch mermaids?", but this is too cruel.
"Ahh I know. Qingqing raised a little finger and said proudly: "Qingqing has seen it on TV, there are many treasures in the sea, what if you say it, what if the thief steals it?" Well, Auntie's treasure chest also has a lot of money, and Qingqing can't say it, what if it is stolen by the thief?"
"Auntie has no money, but very little, your father is a rich man!"
For Qingqing's explanation, the two adults escaped the catastrophe, Tang Ning couldn't help but meow at Nie Zheng, and then he didn't know if this man should tell this story.
"Princess Angela agreed to the witch's terms, and went ashore, and she had a hard time... Well, she took a happy step...."
In the story, the mermaid princess's fish tail turned into a human leg, and every step she took hurt like a knife, and Nie Zheng deleted the content.
"She danced to her heart's content at the ball, and she was very beautiful, and she was deeply attracted to the prince..."
"And then, and then?" Qingqing couldn't wait to know the result.
Hans Christian Andersen's story is a tragedy, when the mermaid princess saves the prince and returns to the sea, where the prince is discovered by a maiden on the shore and sent back to the palace.
After the mermaid princess came ashore, she endured severe pain and attracted the prince with her dancing posture, but she had no tongue and could not speak, and the prince naturally did not know that the person who saved him was the beautiful girl in front of him.
The king was going to choose a princess for the prince, and the princess chosen was the girl who sent the prince back to the palace at that time, and the mermaid princess was very sad, but the prince also asked her to dance for her wedding, and the kind mermaid princess danced the last dance for the prince, crying and running to the beach.
Her five older sisters arrived, and they offered their hair to the witch in exchange for the chance to save the mermaid princess back to the ocean, as long as the mermaid princess stabbed the prince in the heart with a dagger.
The mermaid princess came to the prince's bedroom, and the prince still shouted the girl's name in her sleep, and the mermaid princess was heartbroken, but she could not bear to kill the prince anyway, so she had to throw the dagger away.
She finally returned to heaven and became a bubble in the water, and according to legend, the bubble in the sea is the soul of the mermaid princess.
Nie Zheng originally wanted to tell his daughter this story with a hard heart, so that her daughter could know the sinister nature of the world.
But at this moment, looking at her daughter's hopeful little eyes, her little face as pure as boiled water, she couldn't say it anyway.
"That's right!" He suddenly realized that when he was repairing electrical appliances for Principal Lu, he saved a little boy, and also taught other people's parents, saying that no matter how unbearable their parents' lives are, they can't deprive children of the right to live a happy childhood, "I don't have this right either!"
Nie Zheng decided that he couldn't leave a shadow of unhappiness in his daughter's pure heart.
Then the prince recognized Princess Angela as the one who saved him, and the witch was also moved, so that Princess Angela could speak, and she lived happily with the prince!"
"Yay!
Looking at Qingqing clapping her palms happily, Nie Zheng added, "Dad remembered wrong, this story is not called "Daughter of the Sea", it is called "The Good Time of the Mermaid Princess". β
"Poof!Nie Zheng!" Tang Ning's apricot eyes bent into the moon, "You are very different today from before, um... It's gotten so much better!"
PS: On the author's bookshelf, there is a copy of "Hans Christian Andersen's Fairy Tales", but I can't always read it, the text is too difficult and deep, the story is too deep, especially "The Daughter of the Sea", this is a fairy tale, not a fable, not a philosophical story, is it necessary to write so gray? I heard that it was because Andersen fell out of love, so I wrote this story, but it is also unforgivable, you gave the child a beautiful image of the mermaid princess, but gave a very dark story, so it is not good, I am proficient in personal opinions, I don't like it, don't spray.
