The several large boxes of things sent by the little uncle can be said to be varied, and at a glance, you can know that it is something that he can send, how can others not do this kind of thing.? Bayi ?? Chinese Net? ? ??.

Tell you an example, others can understand, the little uncle once came back from outside, humming and carrying a jar as a treasure, the eldest aunt asked him what was in the jar, he wiped a handful of sweat on his head and said that it was a spring water from a mountain hundreds of miles away.

God knows how he carried this big jar up the mountain, which was so steep and had no road at all, and how he filled it with spring water and carried it down from the mountain.

The little uncle later said to Shainin: "In the last section, I really couldn't bring the jar, the flies on the stone wall couldn't stand, and the local mountain people couldn't go up, so I went up first, and then lifted the jar with a rope, filled it with water, and then used a rope to pull it down, and I slipped down again." That's how I brought it back. ”

Xie Ning only paid attention to the word fly at that time: "Flies can't go up, uncle, you still go up, then you are more powerful than flies." ”

The little uncle said proudly: "That's that." After being proud, I felt why this was so awkward. More powerful than flies, this is complimenting him, right? Why is it so unpleasant?

Therefore, it is a habit for my uncle to go out and bring things back, but the things he brings are often very strange.

These boxes contain almost everything except food. Xie Ning thought, probably the weather is hot, and the road is far away, so it is really difficult to take the food committee.

Fabrics, ornaments, gold and silverware, precious stones, spices, some novel gadgets, stone carvings, woodcuts, copper incense burners with very different shapes from the Central Plains, I don't know what to do with them, probably small things carved out of cow bones. These are all normal.

There are also things that are not normal.

A sachet that doesn't seem to know what kind of thread it is, when I opened it, the little uncle also attached a note intimately, saying that it was a kind of cow hair twisted into thread in the Western Regions.

This thing is terrible ugly, it doesn't fit on the body, and it doesn't fit to hang in the house. But let's throw it away, after all, this was brought back from thousands of miles away. As the saying goes, thousands of miles away from cow hair, courtesy is light and affectionate.

I felt that my uncle was carrying things home very casually, walking and stopping, buying something to stuff in his bag and continuing on the road.

The eldest prince was very interested in this sachet made of cow hair, and asked Xie Ning: "Xie Niangniang, can you give me this?" ”

Xie Ning smiled and handed him the sachet: "What's wrong with this, you and Yuyao are both picky, just take whatever you like." ”

Princess Yuyao is a little girl after all, and she has no interest in this kind of dirty-looking cow hair weaving. She picked out a hoop that should be tied to her head, with small cat ears and eyes sewn on it, green crystals, bells and whistles, and it was indeed much more beautiful than cow hair when it looked colorful in the light.

The two of them picked a bunch of them, and before they had time to clean up the rest, the emperor came. When he saw such a mess in Yong'an Palace, he smiled: "What is this?" ”

"Uncle brought it here, and there was a mess of everything. I asked Ying Yan and the two of them to help me pick and tidy up. ”

Is this also called tidying up? The more tidy it is, the more messy it becomes.

The emperor smiled and did not expose her. Shainin is very stable when he has something, but he can also play with the three children when he has nothing to do, and when he looks at this mess, he knows that they must have had a good time just now in the name of rectification.

Qinghe didn't need to be instructed by anyone, so they hurriedly approached and quickly packed up a lot of things and put them back in the box.

The emperor picked up a piece of wood carving at his feet, I don't know what kind of wood it was, it was heavy and hard, and it looked like an iron piece in his hand. It's a horse that's carved. Although the carving is rough and the carvings are distinct, the horse's demeanor and movements are vivid.

Xie Ning came over to look at the woodcarved horse with the emperor.

"The craftsmanship is average, but this person must have been looking at this horse carving, right?"

"The horses of the Western Regions are very different from those of the Central Plains."

As soon as Xie Ning saw the emperor's expression, he knew that he was thinking about business again, so he didn't talk anymore, and when Qinghe and the others finished packing up, Hu Rong led people in to carry the box out, and the emperor let go of the horse in his hand: "Put this in the small study." ”

Xie Ning washed his hands and peeled oranges for the emperor while waiting for dinner to come. This orange is also a tribute from the south, and it is large, round, and the golden orange peel is as oily as waxed. She was careful when she peeled it, but the juice from the orange peel still stained her fingers a pale yellow-green, and it smelled extraordinarily fragrant.

The peeled orange petal was broken again, and a petal was handed to the emperor, who was turning the pages of the book, and did not stretch out his hand, but just turned his face.

Xie Ning then went a little further and handed the orange petal to the emperor's mouth.

Then she ate a piece herself.

It is worthy of tribute, sweet as honey.

"Ji Yun also sent me something."

Xie Ning almost didn't choke on the orange juice, reluctantly swallowed, coughed twice and cleared his throat before saying, "What did you send?" ”

"If I think about it, there are a few stones, a horseshoe, grass seeds, a musical instrument from the Western Regions, and two knives."

It still sounds cluttered. What does this kind of thing like a horseshoe do for the emperor?

But looking at the emperor's appearance with a smile in his eyes, it was obvious that the little uncle's gift was very appropriate, and it was just scratching the emperor's itch.

Shainin picked one up and asked, "What is that instrument?" ”

"Oh, it's a flute made of clay pottery, but it actually looks more like a whistle, just a palm long. In fact, it can't be called a flute, Ji Yun said that the locals use that falcon, but it's different from our eagle whistle here. ”

The next day, the little uncle entered the palace again, but this time he didn't come to Yong'an Palace, the emperor saw him in Changning Palace, and said a lot of things, and left him for dinner before letting him out of the palace.

Seeing that the little uncle was very important to the emperor, Xie Ning was also very happy.

She is looking forward to her uncle moving his family to Beijing at this time. My cousin is already married, so I shouldn't come with me this time, but my cousin-in-law always has to take the exam, and maybe he will come to the capital next year or the year after. When the time comes, you can always find a chance to meet the last one.

The most important thing now is that the eldest prince is going to officially enter school.

I remember that when the eldest cousin and they officially went to the school to study, the eldest uncle raised his face, taught him earnestly, and even carried people to the ancestral hall to give the ancestors a pillar of incense, which was really solemn.

If you leave it here with the eldest prince, there won't be so much trouble. When I got up early in the morning and had breakfast earlier than usual, the emperor took the eldest prince and left, and wanted to send him to the study first. However, it is only today, the emperor must have a lot of things to say in person, and it is not impossible to let Bai Hongqi and others pass on the words, but he is a little disrespectful to the masters of Nanyuan's study.

By the time Xie Ning and Princess Yuyao had breakfast, there were only the two of them on the table, and the second prince had drunk his paste and couldn't stay in the house, Fang Shanggong had already carried him to the courtyard.

Princess Yuyao looked at the position where the eldest prince usually sits, the expression on her face seemed to have been stolen by someone, and her eyes looked hollow.

Xie Ning sighed in his heart, he didn't know what this kid was thinking about, and hurriedly explained: "Ying Yan is going to study today, does Yu Yao remember?" Ying Yan told you about it last night. ”

Princess Yuyao can be counted as giving some reactions: "Studying? ”

She listened to the eldest prince's explanation yesterday, but probably didn't understand.

Xie Ning patiently explained again: "In the future, Ying Yan will go to study every day, but he will come back in two hours at most, and we will have lunch together, and he will be there in the afternoon." Yu Yao wants to play with her brother, so it's noon. ”

"Brother, I didn't have breakfast."

This kid is a bit of a dead reason, and if he can't find anyone on the table, he thinks that the eldest prince hasn't eaten.

"He has used it, and he has used it with the emperor, really."

Princess Yuyao probably listened to her words and obediently bowed her head to drink porridge.

Xie Ning breathed a sigh of relief, and motioned to the palace maid to clip a small and delicate crystal bun for her, afraid that the soup and oil in the stuffing of the bun would burn her, so she picked a hole to dissipate the air first.

Xie Ning thought that this matter had been made clear, but she didn't expect Princess Yuyao to wait for her behind. After breakfast, Princess Yuyao patiently waited for her to rinse her mouth, wipe her mouth and wash her hands, and then jumped off the ground and burst out with a word: "Go." ”

Xie Ning was stunned: "Where to go?" ”

"Find my brother."

Xie Ning is going to be stunned, hasn't it already been explained?

"Ying Yan is going to study, this is a serious matter, not to play, and we can't go over to disturb him at this time."

But Princess Yuyao said that she couldn't pay attention to it at this time: "Find my brother." ”

Xie Ning didn't want to go, so she wanted to go out by herself, so that the nurse and the palace maid stopped her, let alone not.

It was useless to even go out in person for Fang Shanggong, you must know that there was nothing that could make Fang Shanggong helpless. But today, Princess Yuyao was reluctant to get up, and she didn't let her go out, she stood by the door and didn't move, biting her lip tightly and not saying a word, her little face was pale, and Xie Ning was frightened for a while.

There was chaos here, and Li ordered to come over. Today is a routine day to ask for a pulse, but as soon as I arrived at the door, I was stunned when I saw this battle.

Fang Shanggong was in a hurry to go to the doctor at this time, and pointed to Li Zhizhi and said to Princess Yuyao, "Look, Lord Li is here." ”

Li Zhiling couldn't cry or laugh, saw Xie Ning standing aside, and asked politely: "Concubine Niangniang, what's going on?" ”

This is a terrible thing. Whether it is the emperor or Xie Ning, they all put their minds on the eldest prince before, afraid that he will not be able to bear it at first admission, he will not be able to keep up with his homework, and he will not be able to adapt to the Nanyuan study. I didn't think that the eldest prince was there, it was flat and smooth, but Princess Yuyao was out of control here.

Usually the two children are always in the same place, and the eldest prince looks like an elder brother. It's just that Xie Ning didn't expect the eldest prince to leave, and Princess Yuyao reacted so much.

Li Zhiling groaned slightly, and said softly: "Niangniang, there is a speculation in the heart of the lower official. ”

Xie Ning hurriedly said, "Master Li, please have something to say." ”
