The two of them traveled through the Tang Dynasty to open a supermarket, and the little Sizi was sup
Chapter 357 The Little Princess Makes Clothes!
As she blew on the wind, the little princess couldn't help but swallow.
She picked up her chopsticks and used them to scoop the rice noodles in the bowl to her mouth. Then she opened her mouth and bit down on the noodles, moving her little mouth around and around until she couldn't fit any more in her mouth. Only then did the little princess forcefully bite the noodles off with her little teeth.
Seeing the little princess enjoying her food, Xiao Ran asked, "Is it delicious?"
The little princess nodded; she was too busy to speak.
After finishing all the food in her bowl, the little princess was still a little reluctant to stop.
"Little Nangjun~ I still want to go seven~"
Seeing that the little princess had eaten quite a bit, Xiao Ran said, "How about we eat again tomorrow?"
The little princess patted her tummy. She knew Xiao Ran was worried that she would feel uncomfortable if she ate too much, but she really liked the rice noodles today.
So the little princess looked at Xiao Ran and held up one of her fingers.
"I only have a little bit of vermicelli~ not rice~"
If you don't eat rice noodles and only eat vermicelli, it won't fill you up too much.
"Okay, then let's eat some more rice noodles, but only a little bit."
The little princess nodded, watching longingly as Xiao Ran placed another piece of vermicelli on her plate.
The little princess kept her word. After finishing the noodles in her bowl, she didn't ask for any more. Instead, she went to play with the other little princesses, Chengyang and Gaoyang.
They took out their Barbie dolls after a long time. The little princess of Chengyang looked at the Barbie dolls and suddenly said, "Shall we make her some new clothes?"
Princess Gaoyang clapped her hands.
"That's right! In the cartoon, she had so many clothes! Now she only has these few, which is too few!"
The little princess stroked her chin, "But we won't~"
Princess Chengyang was very enthusiastic about this matter.
"I know some needlework, but I'm not very good at it."
After all, Princess Chengyang had learned needlework from Empress Zhangsun when she watched her do it.
Since arriving at the villa, Princess Chengyang has never touched a needle and thread again.
In addition, Empress Zhangsun was pregnant and did not know how to sew, so Princess Chengyang had nowhere to learn.
However, Princess Chengyang does know a little bit, so the next step is to find the materials.
Upon hearing this, the little princess immediately stood up.
"Little Bag~"
Hearing the little princess's voice, Xiao Ran turned around. "What's wrong, Si Zi?"
The little princess held up her Barbie doll.
"Little Nang-kun~ We want to be your servants~"
"You agree?" Xiao Ran asked, looking puzzled.
Princess Gaoyang said, "Brother, we want to make clothes for Barbie dolls."
Xiao Ran scratched his head; this was indeed outside his area of knowledge. So he went to find Li Lizhi.
Li Lizhi's needlework skills were undoubtedly excellent, but she had no intention of doing it herself. After all, it was the idea of the three little princesses. The finished product was not important; what mattered was the process, just like playing house.
So Li Lizhi simply asked, "If you want to make clothes, is there anything I can help you with?"
Princess Chengyang said, "Sister, we want needles, thread, and fabric."
Needles and thread are easy to find, but fabric is really hard to come by, since they buy ready-made clothes these days.
In the end, Xiao Ran contributed an old piece of clothing.
That's perfect, this garment has a rich variety of colors, and after being cut open, it revealed many different colors.
Besides needles, thread, and clothes, there are also small scissors. These are safety scissors specially designed for children to use when doing crafts. As long as you don't put your hand directly in the center of the scissors, you won't cut yourself.
However, Xiao Ran was still not entirely at ease.
"Be careful when you are making clothes. Don't get too close to the needle, and be careful not to prick yourself or get injured."
The little princess nodded.
"Woji Island Spicy Little Noodles~"
Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang nodded in agreement.
Although Xiao Ran was worried about them getting hurt, he didn't stop them from fighting; he just kept an eye on the situation.
The main person who took action was Princess Chengyang, who also served as the "commander-in-chief".
"Sizi, could you give me that blue strip of cloth?"
The little princess eagerly took a blue strip of cloth and walked over.
"Second sister~ here you go~"
Princess Chengyang took the strip of cloth and said, "Thank you, Sizi."
Although Princess Chengyang usually makes the decisions, she also asks for the opinions of Princess Xiao and Princess Gaoyang, such as what color to use and what style to make.
The three little princesses were very engrossed in their play, especially Princess Chengyang, who looked very serious, as if she were making a decision rather than playing with Barbie dolls.
After a while, Barbie finally put on her new clothes.
The little princess took her Barbie doll and went to find Xiao Ran.
"Little Nang-kun~ Look at you~"
Xiao Ran watched them make the new clothes for Barbie dolls. The overall color scheme was pink, blue, and green, and it looked quite nice.
"Wow, Sizi Fanyin and Seventeen are amazing!"
The little princess smiled contentedly, while the little princess of Chengyang seemed a little embarrassed.
To be honest, the cutting and stitching were not very good, but at least they made something, considering they were still young.
Li Lizhi also praised, "Indeed, everyone is very capable."
The three little princesses were very happy with the repeated praise. They played for a while longer, and then, when they went upstairs to sleep, they put the Barbie doll back in the toy room.
Xiao Ran helped the little princess into bed. After tucking her in, the little princess looked at Xiao Ran and said, "Little Prince~ I want to hear a story about dolls~"
The story of Barbie?
Xiao Ran scratched his head. This was really hard to find. He searched on his phone for a while and found that they were all cartoons, but some of them had story outlines, which was enough.
Then Xiao Ran's voice rang out in the room.
"Barbie was surfing on her surfboard when a wave came and she disappeared without a trace. Just when everyone was worried, she suddenly emerged from the wave, her feet on the surfboard."
The little princess, who had closed her eyes, opened them again upon hearing this.
"Little Nang-kun~ What's up with this Nang-kun duck~"
Xiao Ran said, "It's a sport, like skateboarding."
The little princess tilted her head. "Holy crap, what's this skateboard duck?"
Xiao Ran chuckled, "How about I tell you tomorrow? Let's go to sleep first tonight?"
The little princess nodded, "Okay~"
So Xiao Ran continued telling the story.
"It turns out that Barbie is actually the Little Mermaid Queen's child. Later, she rescued the Queen and inherited the throne."
Xiao Ran put down his phone, smiled at the sleeping princess, and got into bed himself.
After one night, Xiao Ran and the little princess woke up at almost the same time the next day.
"Good morning, little princess~" The little princess is as energetic as ever.
Xiao Ran smiled and replied, "Good morning, Si Zi. Let's go wash up and have breakfast."
The little princess nodded, following Xiao Ran towards the bathroom as she asked, "Little Nang-jun~ what's a skateboard~?"
Xiao Ran said, "Let's wash up first."
Xiao Ran was surprised that she remembered it even after a whole night; it seemed she was indeed very curious.
After washing up, Xiao Ran took out his phone and showed the little princess skateboards and surfboards.
Seeing children skateboarding in the video, the little princess instantly became interested.
"Little Nang-kun~ I want one too~"
It was just a skateboard, and Xiao Ran readily granted the little princess's wish without hesitation.
After going downstairs, Xiao Ran saw that Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang were also there, so he showed them the skateboard.
"What kind of skateboards do Fanyin and Seventeen want?"
The little princess from Chengyang wasn't very interested in skateboards, so she said, "I don't need this, I have a bicycle."
Princess Gaoyang, like the little princess, is very interested in skateboarding.
Xiao Ran bought one that Princess Gao Yang liked.
Although Princess Chengyang said she didn't need it, Xiao Ran still bought one. With three children, he couldn't possibly favor one over the other.
After buying the skateboard, I can finally eat breakfast in peace.
This morning, Yu Shu and Xiangcao made another innovative breakfast.
Xiao Ran picked up a shumai and gave Yu Shu and Xiangcao a thumbs up.
"Well done, looks great."
As he spoke, Xiao Ran took a bite.
Yu Shu and Xiangcao's shumai come in all sorts of flavors.
Generally speaking, shumai in the south are mostly filled with glutinous rice, while those in the north are filled with meat. Yushu and Xiangcao make both kinds of fillings, as do some with both glutinous rice and meat, and others with bamboo shoots.
Anyway, Xiao Ran thought the food was all good, but it got a bit greasy after a while.
The little princess looked at the shumai, picked out a meat one for herself, and took a big bite.
"Good!" The little princess licked her lips and took another bite.
Xiao Ran picked up a glutinous rice filling for the little princess.
"Sizi, try this, it's delicious too."
The little princess doesn't refuse most kinds of food, and immediately took a bite.
"This is good too~" The little princess swung her short legs and ate happily.
Yu Shu and Xiangcao Bao's shumai weren't very big, but after the three little princesses each ate two, Xiao Ran wouldn't let them eat any more.
"Let's eat something else, not shumai, how about this jujube cake?" Xiao Ran said.
Since shumai is made of glutinous rice, it is not easy to digest. In addition, children's stomachs are weak, and Xiao Ran was afraid that they would feel uncomfortable if they ate too much.
The jujube cake was also delicious; it had a strong jujube aroma and was sweet, which the little princess loved.
"Little Nang-kun~ I want to bring Gao-gao~"
When Xiao Ran was at school, he would always pack some snacks for his three little princesses, such as potato chips, jelly, and milk. Today, the little princesses wanted jujube cake, so Xiao Ran packed two pieces in as well.
Anyway, jujube cake tastes good even when it's cold.
After finishing their meal, Xiao Ran and his group went to the school.
When they arrived at the kindergarten, the children came earlier than usual today. After all, it was Monday, and everyone had good friends at kindergarten, so they were all looking forward to coming early to play with their friends.
When the three little princesses arrived at the school, before they could even say goodbye to Xiao Ran, they were surrounded by a group of children.
The children in the kindergarten all love the three little princesses, especially the youngest one, because she is the smallest and cutest.
"Sizi, shall we play on the swings?"
"Mingda, I have some good food here, you can have some."
Seeing how popular the little princess was, Xiao Ran felt relieved.
Today's first lesson this morning was Princess Yuzhang's math class. After class, Princess Yuzhang wanted to go to the hospital. After studying for a while, Princess Yuzhang had some ideas, so she has been a bit busy lately because she needs to discuss medical matters with someone.
Xiao Ran took Princess Yuzhang to the hospital, and then returned to the Tang Dynasty to supervise the plastic track with Xiao Ruoying.
The construction of the synthetic track is progressing much faster than they expected. Because there are many people involved, although the progress was relatively slow at first because they had never done it before, the speed has picked up now.
Xiao Ruoying originally estimated that it would take about a week to lay the floor, and with the drying time, it would probably take almost half a month.
But now it seems that it will probably be put into use before the weekend.
After walking around the playground, Xiao Ran went to see the cement factory.
Xiao Ran was shocked after seeing the inventory inside.
"Have you been working non-stop for twelve hours a day?"
The person in charge quickly replied, "No, that's not true. How can people function without rest?"
This amount of reserves was far beyond Xiao Ran's imagination. According to the manager, their warehouses were already full, and cement was being laid on Zhuque Street. Once the paving was completed, they planned to sell the goods.
As for other places, such as the official road after leaving Chang'an, Xiao Ran mentioned the issue of fundraising and toll collection before, which still needs to be discussed. If toll collection is indeed planned, it will involve taxation issues, which Li Chengqian dares not make the decision on his own.
After looking around, Xiao Ran went to find Li Chengqian.
"His Royal Highness."
Looking at Xiao Ran, Li Chengqian recalled the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall dish from that day and immediately asked, "Young master, do you still remember my recipe?"
Xiao Ran smiled and said, "Of course I remember."
As he spoke, Xiao Ran took out a small notebook from his bag.
It's called a notebook, but it's really just a bunch of printed papers stapled together.
Xiao Ran handed over the notebook and said, "Some of the recipes in this book have been lost, so I don't know how they taste."
Li Chengqian asked in confusion, "Since the recipes exist, how could they have been lost?"
Xiao Ran said, "Because this kind of dish takes too much time to make, and few people eat it after it's made, since it's expensive. Also, some of the descriptions are not accurate, so the taste is always off. Gradually, no one makes it anymore."
Li Chengqian understood.
Xiao Ran added, "I've marked all the lost recipes; you can have the kitchen staff study them."
Li Chengqian nodded, "Thank you, young master."
Xiao Ran waved his hand, "It's nothing serious, I'll go find Si Zi now."
Li Chengqian quickly stopped Xiao Ran.
"No rush. I suppose the young master has already gone to the cement factory?"
Xiao Ran nodded, puzzled. "Yes, what's wrong?"
Li Chengqian said somewhat embarrassedly, "It's like this, we already have a lot of cement in stock, so I was thinking of discussing with Grandpa what to do with it." (End of Chapter)
