The two of them traveled through the Tang Dynasty to open a supermarket, and the little Sizi was sup

Xiao Ran carried the little princess and Princess Chengyang downstairs, while Princess Gaoyang was still fast asleep upstairs.

After going downstairs, Xiao Ran didn't forget to mention that he wanted to make Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.

Xiao Ran had some ingredients at home, but not all of them, so he decided to go out and buy some.

The little princess was playing cat's cradle with the Chengyang princess when she saw Xiao Ran seemed to be leaving. She stopped playing and quickly asked, "Little Nang-jun~ Where are you going~?"

Xiao Ran turned around and asked, "I'm planning to go grocery shopping. Do Si Zi and Fan Yin want to come along?"

The little princess nodded, put the rope in her hand aside, and pulled Princess Chengyang toward Xiao Ran.

"I want to go!"

At the same time, she had not forgotten Princess Gaoyang.

"Seventeenth Sister~"

Since he was going to take the little princess and the Chengyang little princess with him, Xiao Ran certainly wouldn't leave the Gaoyang little princess at home alone.

He went upstairs first, and Princess Gaoyang was sleeping soundly in a different position.

"Seventeen, Seventeen, get up." Xiao Ran gently patted Princess Gaoyang.

Princess Gaoyang opened her eyes upon hearing Xiao Ran's voice.

"elder brother."

Xiao Ran nodded. "Go wash your faces, I'll take you to buy groceries."

Princess Gaoyang sat up abruptly, and without Xiao Ran's help, got out of bed and went to the bathroom.

After Princess Gaoyang finished washing her face, Xiao Ran took her downstairs. Downstairs, the little princess and Princess Chengyang waited for Princess Gaoyang while continuing to play cat's cradle.

Seeing that Xiao Ran had brought Princess Gaoyang down, the little princess finally put down the rope.

"Little Nang-kun~ Let's go!"

Xiao Ran nodded. "Okay, let's go."

Xiao Ran walked in front, followed by three little tagalongs holding hands.

Because it was nearby, Xiao Ran didn't drive, but instead walked with the three little princesses to the supermarket.

Along the way, they attracted a lot of attention, after all, the three little princesses looked so cute.

Upon arriving at the supermarket, Xiao Ran looked at the three little princesses and instructed them, "Don't run around later, stay close to me, okay?"

Although the three little princesses were very obedient at crucial moments, it was still necessary to give them some advice.

The three little princesses nodded in unison.

A passerby happened to witness this scene and couldn't help but laugh out loud, looking at Xiao Ran and saying, "Are these three your kids? They're so cute."

Xiao Ran smiled and said, "Yes, it's mine."

After saying that, Xiao Ran led the three little princesses into the supermarket.

This is a fruit and vegetable supermarket, so there aren't tall shelves, but rather platforms that only reach waist height. This arrangement is extremely friendly to the three little princesses' heights.

Xiao Ran took out his phone, opened the notes app, and started buying the ingredients he had written down.

The three little princesses remembered Xiao Ran's words and followed him closely.

The main thing missing at home is some things that we don't usually use.

For example, shark fin, dried scallops and abalone slices, as well as sea cucumber, tendon, fish lips and fish maw.

As for the other ingredients needed, such as chicken, duck, lamb, and pig's trotters, we still have them at home. However, we definitely don't have pork hock, pig's stomach, shiitake mushrooms, or winter bamboo shoots.

These ingredients are used to make the soup base; they are essential.

So after Xiao Ran finished shopping, he was already carrying two bags in his hands.

Fortunately, Xiao Ran didn't actually buy a lot of each item.

He looked at the three little princesses and asked, "Does Sizi Fanyin Seventeen want to buy anything?"

The little princess had already spotted the tomatoes not far away.

"Little Nang-kun~ I want a 7-series red duck~"

Xiao Ran nodded and went over to get some tomatoes.

In addition, they bought some fruit. Princess Gaoyang was particularly interested in mangosteens, so Xiao Ran bought quite a few.

On his way home, Xiao Ran suddenly regretted not driving.

However, since things had already come to this, there was no use in regretting it. Xiao Ran could only carry a bunch of things and force himself to return to the villa.

As soon as he entered the villa, Xiao Ran put his things down and collapsed onto the sofa.

The little princess climbed onto the sofa, approached Xiao Ran, and lay down on his lap.

Princess Gaoyang looked at Xiao Ran's trembling hand and poked it with a finger.

Princess Chengyang then asked very considerately, "Are you very tired?"

Xiao Ran patted each of their little heads, "Alright, go play somewhere else, I'll go get all these things."

As he spoke, Xiao Ran patted the little princess, who then got up from his lap and sat down to the side.

Afterwards, Xiao Ran got off the sofa, turned on the TV, and let the three little princesses watch cartoons, while he went to the kitchen.

Yu Shu and Xiang Cao were in the kitchen watching a video about making Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. They had been watching it for a long time, and the ingredients in the refrigerator had been taken out to thaw long ago, so they could start cooking now.

Yu Shu first took out a large earthenware pot, added water to it, and then placed a small strainer at the bottom of the pot to prevent the food from sticking to the bottom of the pot later.

Next, put in the blanched chicken, duck, lamb, as well as pork hock, pig's trotters, pig's stomach, shiitake mushrooms, and other ingredients. Then, use a clean gauze to put in shark fin, dried scallops, and abalone slices. Of course, there is another very important ingredient to put in as well: ham.

It's fair to say that Xiao Ruoying bought the ham at the perfect time.

Finally, pour in the broth made from chicken, duck, etc., and simmer over low heat for two hours.

The broth was prepared by Yu Shu and Xiangcao when Xiao Ran first returned, and it's perfect to use it now.

Seeing that it was time to wait, Xiao Ran returned to the living room.

The three little princesses were still watching cartoons, so Xiao Ran sat down and watched as well.

The little princess smacked her lips, "Little Pang~ I want potato chips~"

Xiao Ran nodded. Because of her throat problem, she had cut off their snacks for the past two days.

However, I'm almost fully recovered now, so it's okay to eat some snacks occasionally, as long as they're not spicy strips.

Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang looked at Xiao Ran after hearing what the little princess said.

Xiao Ran asked, "What would Fan Yin and Seventeen like to eat?"

Princess Chengyang thought for a moment and then said, "I want to eat potato chips too."

"Okay, what about seventeen?"

Princess Gaoyang shook her head. "Brother, I want to eat mangosteen."

Xiao Ran then remembered that because he had too many things in his hands, he had simply carried them all to the kitchen, so the fruit he had bought was now in the kitchen as well.

"Alright, then you guys just wait patiently."

After saying that, Xiao Ran went to the kitchen, first washed the mangosteens to make them cleaner, and then put them into the fruit plate.

Xiao Ran took the fruit platter to the snack area and took out two bags of potato chips, one tomato flavored and one barbecue flavored.

Then he returned to the living room and put everything on the coffee table.

The little princess spotted the tomato-flavored potato chips at a glance.

"I want this red duck~"

Princess Chengyang knew she liked tomatoes, so she didn't try to take them from her. "Then I'll take this one."

The little princess was hugging a bag of tomato-flavored potato chips and smiling happily.

Princess Gaoyang then reached out and took a mangosteen in her hand.

She looked at the mangosteen, then at Xiao Ran, and asked, "Brother, is it okay to eat the one outside?"

Xiao Ran nodded. "Yes, the outer shell needs to be peeled off, like this."

As he spoke, Xiao Ran picked up a mangosteen, pinched it horizontally, and the belly of the mangosteen split open. With another twist, the upper part of the mangosteen's shell disappeared.

Princess Gaoyang nodded, feeling that she had learned it. She looked down at the mangosteen in her hand and tried to squeeze it like Xiao Ran had, but the mangosteen did not budge.

The little princess also noticed what was happening here.

"Little Nang-kun~ Seventeenth Sister~ What are you guys doing~"

The little princess tilted her head and looked this way.

Princess Gaoyang held up the mangosteen in her hand.

"Sizi, I'm learning from my brother how to open a mangosteen."

The little princess raised her hand, "I want to learn too!"

Xiao Ran had no choice but to pick up the little princess and put her on his lap.

"Let Sizi give it a try too."

As he spoke, Xiao Ran handed a mangosteen to the little princess, then picked up another one and asked Princess Chengyang, "Would you like to try one too, Fanyin?"

At this moment, Princess Gaoyang used all her strength to squeeze the mangosteen open, and some juice inevitably spilled out.

Princess Chengyang looked at Princess Gaoyang's purple-stained fingertips and shook her head.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran withdrew his hand and then used the mangosteen to demonstrate to the little princess.

The little princess tried it herself and found that she couldn't open it at all; she wasn't strong enough.

But the little princess will seek help.

So she looked at Xiao Ran, "Little Nang-jun~ I can't open it~"

No sooner had the words been spoken than Princess Gaoyang excitedly exclaimed, "I've opened it!"

The little princess held a mangosteen and looked towards Princess Gaoyang.

Princess Gaoyang was holding an open mangosteen.

Princess Chengyang looked at the mangosteen, then at Xiao Ran, and said, "This looks like garlic. I hope it doesn't taste like garlic too?"

Princess Chengyang dislikes the smell of garlic.

Princess Gaoyang is quite the experience-oriented person.

"Take a bite and you'll know!"

As she spoke, Princess Gaoyang took a bite of the white flesh inside, and her eyes widened in surprise.

Seeing this, the little princess swallowed hard and handed the mangosteen in her hand to Xiao Ran.

"Little Nangjun, hurry up~ I need to eat seven ducks too~"

Seeing the little princess's anxious look, Xiao Ran smiled and offered the little princess the mangosteen that he had just peeled open but hadn't eaten.

"Eat it and see if you like it."

The little princess took a bite right away.

"Wow~ Good job, Seven Ducks~"

After the little princess ate one mangosteen, she couldn't wait to eat the second one.

Princess Gaoyang also said, "Yes, this is so sweet and delicious."

Xiao Ran fed the little princess a whole mangosteen, and the little princess squinted her eyes as she ate.

Then, Xiao Ran looked at Princess Chengyang and asked, "Fanyin, are you really not going to eat one? They're very delicious."

Princess Chengyang looked at Princess Gaoyang, who was already eating her third potato chip, and then at the little princess who was unwilling to stop eating and had even forgotten to eat her potato chips. In the end, curiosity outweighed fear.

“Then I’ll give it a try,” said Princess Chengyang.

Xiao Ran directly handed a mangosteen to the little princess of Chengyang's mouth.

The little princess stared at the mangosteen, urging repeatedly, "Second sister, hurry up! Is it ready yet?"

Princess Chengyang put the mangosteen in her mouth. At first, she closed her eyes nervously, but after chewing it a couple of times, she immediately relaxed her brow.

Xiao Ran smiled and said, "How is it? Doesn't it taste good?"

Princess Chengyang nodded, blushing slightly as she recalled her initial fear, but still affirmed, "It's delicious."

Princess Gaoyang has now mastered the skill of opening mangosteens, and can do it in about two seconds.

Moreover, Xiao Ran discovered that Princess Gaoyang liked to eat mangosteens, but not that much. It seemed that opening mangosteens was more interesting to Princess Gaoyang than eating them.

The little princess was different; all she cared about was eating mangosteens. All the mangosteens Princess Gaoyang peeled went into her mouth, and after finishing, she sweetly said, "Thank you, Seventeenth Sister~"

In the end, Xiao Ran saw that the little princess had already eaten four, so he stopped her from eating any more.

However, Princess Gaoyang wouldn't waste the mangosteens she peeled off, since there was still Xiao Ran there.

Even if all else fails, there's still Li Shimin and his ilk.

After finishing the mangosteens, Xiao Ran tidied up the coffee table and then continued watching cartoons with the three little princesses.

Two hours later, the alarm clock rang. Xiao Ran went to the kitchen, opened the lid of the earthenware pot, and put in the sea cucumber, tendon, fish lips, and fish maw, then simmered it for another hour.

These were the ingredients that Xiao Ran specifically sought out for making Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. Otherwise, who would have known that fish lips and fish maw would be used in the dish? Especially fish maw, which Xiao Ran had never even heard of before.

I later found out that it was actually a fish bladder.

After putting everything inside, Xiao Ran prepared to go to the Tang Dynasty to call for help.

Besides Li Lizhi, Princess Yuzhang, and Xiao Ruoying, Xiao Ran planned to bring Li Chengqian along as well.

After all, this is not easy to make, and it is also a local delicacy, which is exceptionally delicious. Of course, we can't leave Li Chengqian alone.

So Xiao Ran went to the Tang Dynasty and brought them all back.

As soon as Li Chengqian entered the villa, he smelled an extremely domineering fragrance.

"Is this the aroma of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall?" Li Chengqian asked.

Xiao Ruoying nodded casually, "It should be. Although I've never eaten it, it smells so good."

Xiao Ran glanced at the sofa and realized that the three little princesses who had been sitting there before he went to the Tang Dynasty were gone.

"Sizi, Fanyin, Shiqi," Xiao Ran called out to the three of them as he walked toward the kitchen.

The closer you are to the kitchen, the stronger the aroma becomes.

When they arrived at the kitchen, sure enough, the three little princesses were squatting on the kitchen floor, staring at the earthenware pot on the stove.

The little princess's lips were sparkling, and it looked like she was about to drool.

Xiao Ran chuckled twice, and after he finished laughing, he said, "Si Zi Fan Yin Seventeen, you're here. We can eat it in a little while."

The little princess swallowed hard and quickly ran towards Xiao Ran.

"Little Nang-kun~ When will Seven Ducks be here~"

The little princess can't wait.

Xiao Ran didn't answer her question, but instead laughed and said, "Our Sizi is already drooling with envy." (End of Chapter)
