Knowing she could eat there again when she got home, the little princess didn't think about eating a few more pieces. Instead, she waited until she finished everything on her plate and was full before going to take a nap with everyone.

The little princess fell asleep quickly in bed, and Xiao Ran also took a nap.

When Xiao Ran woke up, he felt refreshed and invigorated.

Seeing that it wasn't time for class yet, Xiao Ran went to find Li Chengqian first.

"Your Highness, how are the preparations on the riverbank going?" Xiao Ran asked.

Although this is a matter of the Tang Dynasty, human life is human life no matter where it is, and Xiao Ran still cares about it.

Li Chengqian said, "I have already sent people there, but there has been no news yet."

Xiao Ran thought about it and agreed. Although Li Chengqian was definitely looking for places to test his skills in the surrounding area, travel was still not that convenient at the moment, and it would take a lot of time just to get around.

Seeing Li Chengqian's worried expression, Xiao Ran comforted him, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."

Li Chengqian nodded; even if he was worried, that was all he could think about now.

After exchanging a few words with Li Chengqian, Xiao Ran returned to the kindergarten.

The little princess had already woken up and was eating fruit.

Today, I gave each of these children a plum. The plums were very big, almost the size of small peaches.

The little princess took a bite, and her whole face scrunched up.

Xiao Ran happened to see this and laughed, "What's with that expression, Si Zi?"

Upon seeing Xiao Ran arrive, the little princess, holding a plum, walked towards him.

"Little Bag~"

Xiao Ran led the little princess back to their original seats, and the little princess held up the plum in her hand.

"Little Nangjun Seven Ducks~"

Xiao Ran shook his head, "I won't eat it, but the ox can."

Seeing that Xiao Ran really wouldn't eat, the little princess took a bite herself, chewed it, and then her whole little face scrunched up again.

Xiao Ran found it amusing and asked, "What's wrong? Is it not tasty?"

The little princess softened her expression and shook her head.

"It's so sour~"

At this moment, Xiao Ruoying walked over with a plum in her hand.

"Brother, would you like some plums?"

Xiao Ruoying asked.

Xiao Ran thought for a moment, took one, and said, "Si Zi said this plum is sour."

Xiao Ruoying was a little surprised, "Really? The shopkeeper said it was super sweet when I bought it."

The little princess took another bite, smacking her lips.

"It's so sour~"

Xiao Ran also took a bite.

“It’s a bit sour indeed.”

It's alright, though, not too sour.

Xiao Ruoying refused to believe it and insisted on trying it herself, only to be overwhelmed by the sourness and develop a painful mask.

"This is so sour! Especially the skin, it's so sour!"

After swallowing the plum in her mouth, Xiao Ruoying became angrier and angrier.

"No way! I'm going to find that boss when I get back! What kind of plums are these?! This is a scam!"

Xiao Ran asked, "Where did you buy these plums?"

Xiao Ruoying said, "It's at the morning market over there. I thought it looked pretty good, so I bought some."

Xiao Ran shook his head. "Next time, try it first before you buy it."

Xiao Ruoying wholeheartedly agreed. She said she was going to find the boss, but it was just a momentary outburst. She couldn't really go to him, could she?

Putting aside the fact that the sweetness of fruit can't be guaranteed, even if you did find it, so what? Besides, many people actually enjoy the sour taste.

I can only say I learned a lesson; next time I'll try it before buying.

Xiao Ran looked at the little princess who was still munching on a plum. He wondered if she had developed a resistance to it. Now, the little princess's face didn't scrunch up with every bite like it did at the beginning. She would just furrow her brows and relax after swallowing the plum.

"Sizi, if it's too sour, we won't eat it," Xiao Ran said.

At this moment, the little princess still had half a plum left in her hand. If it were delicious, she would have finished it long ago. The fact that half of it was left means that it wasn't the flavor she liked.

But the little princess shook her head, "No~ We can't waste duck~"

The little princess was unwavering in her stance on this matter.

This is a good thing, and Xiao Ran certainly wouldn't ruin it, but he also didn't want to see the little princess eating things she didn't like.

"Here, give it to me, I'll eat it for you," Xiao Ran said.

The little princess looked at the plum in her hand, then at Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran deliberately feigned a heartbroken expression and said, "You're reluctant to give Si Zi to me?"

Upon hearing this, the little princess quickly handed over the plum she was holding.

"Don't cry, duck~ It's all for Little Nangjun Qi~"

Xiao Ran felt a warmth in his heart, took the plum from the little princess, and ate it in a few bites.

The plums weren't very good this afternoon, but luckily the little princess had other things to eat.

The little princess returned to the classroom, took out three bananas from her bag, gave one to each of the Chengyang and Gaoyang princesses, and then handed the last one to Xiao Ran.

"Little Nangjun Qi~"

Xiao Ran really didn't want it this time.

"I've already eaten the plums, I can't eat anymore, you can have this banana and rhinoceros yourself."

The little princess thought for a moment, then nodded.

"Good~"

The little princess responded and extended her hand to Xiao Ran.

"Hugs~"

Xiao Ran reached out and picked up the little princess.

The little princess sat in Xiao Ran's lap, peeling a banana. Once she had peeled it open, she quickly took a bite.

After taking a couple of bites, the little princess looked at Xiao Ran again, "Little Nangjun Qi Ya~"

Xiao Ran shook his head again, "I won't eat it, Si Zi can eat it."

Seeing this, the little princess continued eating. Suddenly, she asked, "Little rascal~ This banana we grow~ It's so delicious~"

They thought bananas were delicious, so they decided to grow them.

It was also because Li Lizhi and Xiao Ruoying kept talking about planting that the little princess remembered it.

Xiao Ran patiently explained to the little princess, "We can't grow bananas at home because banana trees are too tall, and the climate isn't suitable for banana growth."

The little princess didn't quite understand, but she could make out that Xiao Ran was saying bananas couldn't be grown.

So the little princess sighed like a little adult, "What a pity!"

Xiao Ran patted the little princess's bun. "It's okay, we can just buy it when Sizi wants to eat it."

Thinking of the various fruits at home, the little princess nodded.

“Good duck~”

So, the little princess ate the banana and talked to Xiao Ran. After she finished the banana, it was time for class.

This afternoon's class is Xiao Ran's physical education class.

The course has now been changed from Five Animal Frolics to Military Boxing. Listening to the children's innocent "hey" and "ha" sounds, Xiao Ran focused his attention on the little princess.

The little princess, with a serious expression, performed the actions Xiao Ran had taught her, her short arms and legs moving with practiced ease.

Although it wasn't perfect, I put a lot of effort into it.

After learning all the movements taught today, Xiao Ran announced that everyone was free to do their own thing.

The little princess originally came to find Xiao Ran, but some other children asked her to play "Statues" instead.

"Go play," Xiao Ran said to the little princess.

Only then did the little princess start playing with the other children.

Xiao Ran watched the little princesses play from the side, reminding them from time to time not to get hurt.

When the bell rings, it's time to go home.

Li Lizhi came out of the office and, together with Xiao Ran, led the children to stand in line.

Normally, she should have taken them out of the kindergarten by now, but this time Li Lizhi didn't take them away directly. Instead, she clapped her hands to draw everyone's attention to herself and said, "We won't have class tomorrow morning. We'll have an exam. You can go back and study more."

At this point, the children were unaware of how terrifying the exams were. When they heard Li Lizhi's words, they simply nodded and continued chatting away with the other children around them.

After telling the story, Li Lizhi led the children out of the kindergarten.

After handing the children over to their families, Xiao Ran took the three little princesses, Li Lizhi, and Xiao Ruoying back home.

When I got home, the first thing I did was do my homework.

The past few days have been filled with sports meets and leisure time spent playing everywhere, which has really excited the little princess. Before doing her homework, she even asked, "Little darling~ can we go play~?"

Xiao Ran pointed to the little princess's homework on the table and said, "That will have to wait until you finish all your homework."

Upon hearing this, the little princess quickly picked up her pen and began to do her homework seriously.

She can only go out to play after finishing her homework, so she needs to finish it as soon as possible so she can go out to play!
With that in mind, the little princess did her homework much faster than usual.

Xiao Ran watched from behind the little princess and noticed that although the little princess was much faster, she wasn't sloppy; she just wasn't as meticulous about details as before.

Previously, when the little princess wrote, even if the vertical strokes weren't perfectly straight, she would erase them and rewrite them, which naturally slowed her down.

Upon seeing this, Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang both silently quickened their pace.

After the three little princesses finished writing, Xiao Ran checked their work, pointed out a few mistakes, and then asked them to put their notebooks away.

"Alright, where do you guys want to go?" Xiao Ran asked.

Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang remained silent, looking at the little princess.

The little princess doesn't know where to go to play; she just wants to go out and play.

It's not long before dinner, so if we go out, we'll probably have to eat out.

So Xiao Ran looked at the little princess and said, "If we go out to play, we won't be able to have candied sweet potatoes tonight. We'll have to have them tomorrow, okay?"

It's a tough decision, but for the little princess, eating is more important.

"We spicy food folks don't go out to play spicy food~"

The little princess spoke, but her expression couldn't help but look a little downcast.

Xiao Ran thought for a moment and said, "How about we ride our bikes around the area?"

As long as she could go out and play, the little princess's mood instantly brightened.

"Alright, everyone, let's go!"

The little princess pulled Xiao Ran and tried to walk out.

"Wait, put on your protective gear first."

Although the three little princesses' bicycles all have training wheels, so they generally won't fall over, it's better to be safe than sorry, so it's still better to wear training wheels.

The little princess stood obediently in place, letting Xiao Ran put on her protective gear.

At this moment, Li Lizhi also came over and asked, "What are you all doing here?"

While putting protective gear on the little princess, Xiao Ran said, "Sizi said she wanted to go out and play, but I thought it was time to eat, so I took them for a bike ride around the area."

Li Lizhi nodded and then said, "Since you're going out, why don't you buy a few bottles of Coke on your way back? Yu Shu said she wanted to make Coke chicken wings, but we don't have any Coke. She was thinking of buying some tomorrow and making them."

It was just a matter of convenience. Xiao Ran responded and, together with Li Lizhi, helped Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang put on their protective gear before taking the three princesses out.

The three little princesses rode bicycles, while Xiao Ran followed on foot.

The laughter of three little princesses came from ahead, and Xiao Ran looked at them with a smile.

Before they came out, Xiao Ran had told them to ride slowly and stay to the side of the road.

The three little princesses were very obedient at this time, riding one next to the road.

They went to the supermarket first. The three little princesses parked the car at the entrance and followed Xiao Ran into the supermarket.

The supermarket was quite crowded at this time. The three little princesses were wearing helmets, so their faces were not clearly visible. They were also wearing the same protective gear, which attracted a lot of attention.

Xiao Ran grabbed a few bottles of cola and then asked the little princess, "Sizi, is there anything you'd like to eat?"

The little princess picked up a bag of her favorite tomato-flavored potato chips.

"I want to date this duck~"

Xiao Ran put the potato chips into the cart, and then looked at Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang.

"What about Sanskrit chants and the number seventeen?"

Princess Chengyang and Princess Gaoyang also picked out their favorite foods. Seeing that there was nothing else to buy, Xiao Ran took the three princesses to pay the bill.

There weren't a lot of people at the counter, but there were still a few people in line ahead of them.

After Xiao Ran and the three little princesses stood in line, the man in front of them turned around, looked at Xiao Ran, and asked, "Are these your children?"

Xiao Ran nodded. "Yes, this is my sister."

Xiao Ran is now quite used to this question-and-answer format. After all, it's not the first time he's been asked these questions, and he's already experienced it.

The older man asked with a look of surprise, "Are they triplets?"

Xiao Ran shook his head. "They're not triplets."

Although he received a negative answer, the eldest brother was still very interested in the three little princesses, glancing at them every now and then, and even telling Xiao Ran to pay the bill before him.

Xiao Ran glanced at the bottle of soy sauce in his older brother's hand and politely declined.

Soon, it was time for Xiao Ran to pay the bill.

I didn't buy a lot of things today because I didn't drive, and it would be inconvenient to carry too much stuff. So, apart from a few bottles of Coke, I only bought one bag of snacks for each of the three little princesses.

Carrying these items, the three little princesses walked out of the supermarket and got into their little car.

Xiao Ran looked at what he was holding, then at the little princess who was about to ride away on her bicycle, and suddenly called out to the three little princesses: "Si Zi Fan Yin Seventeen, wait a moment."

The three little princesses looked up at Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran carried the things and walked towards the three little princesses. (End of this chapter)
