Today is Chinese Valentine's Day. Rong Chuyue dressed up early in the morning and took her sister Rong Xinyue out to play.
Their grandmother, Madam Rong, was always conservative and old-fashioned. When she found out that her two granddaughters had run out to play, she hurriedly ordered the nanny to go out and find them and bring them back to the house.
The nanny searched for a long time and finally found them. She just tried to persuade them to go back home, but Rong Chuyue retorted to her so badly that she had no chance to fight back and had to go back in disappointment.
At this time, the two sisters were at a nail painting stall, choosing patterns with great interest.
In Daxia, it is a popular custom for young girls to dye their nails with henna on the Chinese Valentine's Day.
On this day, skillful women would set up stalls in the streets to solicit business from young girls and paint their nails.
When dyeing, small hollow flower paper will be pasted on the nails in advance.
After dyeing in this way, beautiful patterns will appear on the nails, which is very beautiful.
Xia Miaoyuan was the first to discover Rong Chuyue. He waved his little hands excitedly and babbled towards her.
When the prince heard the name Rong Chuyue, he was so excited that he turned around and saw Rong Chuyue dressed in gorgeous clothes.
The last time I saw her, she was still wearing men's clothes. The simple and plain men's clothes made Rong Chuyue's face look rosy and pretty.
Today she changed into a beautiful xiangyun gauze dress, combed her hair into a flowing bun, and wore bright pearl flowers on her head, which made her small oval face look even more charming and beautiful.
The prince stared at Rong Chuyue blankly for a while, feeling numb in his heart.
[Brother, brother, go find her! What are you standing there for?!]
Seeing the prince standing there stupidly, Xia Miaoyuan was so anxious that his little body jumped up and down like a carp trying to escape.
"What happened to my sister?" the third prince asked in surprise.
"Does she want to paint her nails?" the fifth prince asked foolishly.
"She is so young, how can she know how to dye her nails?" Wei Mingyuan murmured.
Just now, the Third Prince, the Fifth Prince and Wei Mingyuan were buying rice cakes at a stall nearby and did not hear Xia Miaoyuan's thoughts.
At this moment, they came over with food and found Xia Miaoyuan making a fuss, which made them feel very strange.
[Yes, yes, I want to paint my nails! ]
【Go, go there quickly! 】
The prince held Xia Miaoyuan in his arms, and she stretched out her upper body to reach the nail-dying stall.
The Fifth Prince heard Xia Miaoyuan's thoughts at this moment, and glanced at Wei Mingyuan with disdain and said, "What's wrong with my sister being young? Why doesn't she know how to paint her nails?"
"My sister is so smart. You can't compare her with other babies."
The fifth prince said proudly, and took Xia Miaoyuan from the crown prince's arms: "Do you want to dye your nails? Take her over and you'll know."
After he said that, he carried Xia Miaoyuan towards the nail painting stall.
The prince showed a hint of pride on his face, but then he restrained his expression and said pretentiously: "Xiao Wu, don't mess around!"
While calling out to the Fifth Prince, he chased after him.
"Sister, take a look and tell me which one you like. I'll pay you some money and let this lady dye it for you."
The fifth prince stood in front of the nail dyeing stall and spoke solemnly to Xia Miaoyuan.
"My dear, your sister is too young and she doesn't know how to paint her nails." The stall owner advised with a smile.
"No, my sister understands. She wanted to dye her nails." The fifth prince defended.
"As a brother, you are quite good to your sister." Rong Chuyue looked at the fifth prince with a smile.
At this moment, the stall owner had already polished her and her sister's nails and was putting floral mud on them.
"Of course. I should take care of my own sister." The fifth prince proudly raised his face to a 45-degree angle.
"Xiaowu, stop messing around." The prince called out and walked over quickly, but his eyes were looking at Rong Chuyue intentionally or unintentionally.
When Rong Chuyue heard the voice, she turned her head and met the prince's eyes.
The prince's face immediately broke into a smile, and he stared blankly at Rong Chuyue and said, "Miss Rong...it's you!"
He originally wanted to call him Young Master Rong, but he regretted it as soon as the word Rong came out of his mouth.
The moment Rong Chuyue saw the prince, her eyes lit up instantly and the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously. She was about to speak, but her eyes caught sight of Rong Xinyue who was staring at her. She immediately put away her smile and pretended not to understand.
Ever since she was rescued by the prince last time, she has developed a liking for this handsome young man.
But now her younger sister is also present, and she is really afraid that her younger sister will tell the family about this and she will be punished.
"Do you still remember me? The day when the corrupt officials were beheaded at Caishikou." The prince looked at Rong Chuyue with a smile on his face.
"What do I remember? Sir, you may have recognized the wrong person." Rong Chuyue's face was gloomy.
When Rong Chuyue heard the words "behead corrupt officials at Caishikou" coming from the prince's mouth, she was so scared that cold sweat broke out on her back.
On the day of the beheading at Caishikou, her parents and grandparents resolutely forbade her to go and see it. She changed into men's clothes, sneaked out, and rented a carriage from an inn to watch.
He did it in secret, and even his sister didn't know about it.
If I admit it now, the truth will be revealed.
"Oh, look at how morally corrupt the world is these days. He already has three children, and he's still flirting with pretty girls."
"Yes, yes. This is called having your cake and eating it too."
"What's the point of being so handsome? All you have in your head are thieves and whores."
A few passers-by thought that the Fifth Prince, Wei Mingyuan and Xia Miaoyuan were all the prince's children, and pointed at the prince.
Rong Xinyue, who was sitting next to Rong Chuyue, saw her sister's reaction and thought that the prince was a lecher, so she glared at him with a sullen face.
The prince's face had turned red, and he was embarrassed and wanted to find a crack to crawl into.
[Don't panic, brother. Your pick-up line is too old-fashioned. It's not sophisticated at all.]
[Her family was with her, so how could she possibly admit to knowing a stranger in front of them?]
The prince listened to his sister's heartfelt words, his expression softened, and he said calmly: "I am sorry for the offense, but I may have made a mistake. Please forgive me, young lady."
[Come on, Xia Miaoyuan! You must help the prince and his true love find their true love!]
After encouraging herself in her heart, Xia Miaoyuan stretched out her two little hands and tried hard to reach the henna paper on the stall.
"Okay, okay, brother will let this lady dye your hair." The prince instantly understood his sister's intention and cooperated.
"Madam, please paint my sister's nails. No need for patterns, just paint it red." The prince said politely to the stall owner.
The stall owner couldn't help laughing when he saw Xia Miaoyuan grabbing the colored paper fiercely, so he agreed with a smile.
The prince held Xia Miaoyuan and sat down. The stall owner covered Xia Miaoyuan's small fingernails with henna paste and then wrapped it with leaves.
At this time, Nanny Li, who was taking care of Xia Miaoyuan, came over with a bottle of milk.
"Master, we have been out for quite some time. The young lady must be hungry. Let me feed her some milk."
Xia Miaoyuan's eyes lit up when she saw the milk in Li Ma's hand.
"Madame Li, you've arrived at the perfect time. I was just wondering how to help my brother."
