The prince was very puzzled when he heard his sister's thoughts.
How can Nanny Li help?
After Li Ma Ma finished speaking, she began to feed Xia Miaoyuan milk one spoonful at a time.
The four brothers and sisters came out early in the morning and had been walking around for a while. At this time, Xia Miaoyuan was really hungry.
In less than a cup of tea, she finished the bottle of milk.
After drinking milk, she pricked up all ten fingers and looked around with her round little head.
Rong Xinyue was sitting next to the prince.
At this time, Rong Xinyue was waiting for her nails to be painted, feeling very bored.
"Ah... hug... hug..." Xia Miaoyuan squeezed out a few syllables.
She stretched out her two little arms towards Rong Xinyue. Rong Xinyue looked at her curiously and immediately burst into giggles.
Seeing that she was so loved by the baby, Rong Xinyue was in a good mood.
"Little guy, do you want to talk to your sister?" Rong Xinyue asked in a hoarse voice.
[Yes, yes, beautiful lady, please hug me, I’m very cute! ]
"Miao'er, you can't do this." The prince hugged Xia Miaoyuan tightly.
"It's okay, she's just a little child." Rong Xinyue smiled.
Rong Chuyue murmured, "She likes you, right?"
Rong Xinyue's eyes flashed with pride, but she deliberately said in a nonchalant tone: "Oh, there's nothing I can do. I don't know if it's because of my looks or what, but I just seem to be quite popular with kids."
The Third Prince echoed, "The girl must be kind-hearted. The child has clear eyes and a clear mind, so he can sense it."
"Come, little darling, let your sister hold you."
At this time, Rong Xinyue's vanity had been greatly satisfied. She was so happy that she asked to hug Xia Miaoyuan, which would further confirm the fact that the child liked her.
Rong Xinyue stretched out her hands to Xia Miaoyuan, and Xia Miaoyuan cooperated by stretching out her little arms in response.
Nestled in Rong Xinyue's arms, Xia Miaoyuan hooked his arm around her neck obediently, uttering a few babbling baby words from time to time.
Rong Xinyue took out a piece of radish from her pocket and put it in her mouth to chew.
As she nibbled, she put the radish strips deeper and deeper into her mouth.
With a sound of "yue...", a stream of white liquid spurted out of Xia Miaoyuan's mouth.
Almost all the liquid sprayed on Rong Xinyue's body.
Yes, Xia Miaoyuan vomited milk.
"Ah..." Rong Xinyue stuffed Xia Miaoyuan back into the prince's arms as if by reflex, stood up and looked at the large milk stains on her clothes in panic.
"Oh, I'm really sorry, I'm so sorry." There was a hint of excitement in the prince's eyes, but he kept apologizing.
Rong Chuyue hurriedly took out a handkerchief and wiped her sister roughly.
The third prince and the fifth prince also took out handkerchiefs and cleaned Xia Miaoyuan.
"This is a dress made of Xiangyunsha. My grandmother spent a lot of money to buy it for me. Wuuuuu..." Rong Xinyue started crying at a loss.
The prince took out a gold ingot and stuffed it into Rong Xinyue's hand, saying, "Don't worry, young lady. My sister soiled your clothes, and we will compensate you."
He turned to look at the Third Prince and said, "Third Brother, accompany the young lady to the clothing store to buy a similar skirt. The extra amount will be my compensation to the young lady."
Rong Xinyue looked carefully at the gold ingot in her hand, and her crying gradually stopped.
The third prince followed Rong Xinyue to the clothing store, while the fifth prince and Wei Mingyuan carried Xia Miaoyuan to the carriage to find the nanny to change clothes.
In a moment, the prince and Rong Chuyue were the only two people left in front of the nail dyeing stall.
The two smiled at each other.
"I'm really sorry, I had no choice just now." Rong Chuyue looked ashamed.
"No, no, no, don't blame the girl. I was too reckless." Two blushes appeared on the prince's face.
Rong Chuyue quickly took off the leaf bag on her fingers, took out a piece of silver, put it on the stall, and turned away.
The prince followed tacitly, and the two of them came to a teahouse, where they drank tea and chatted.
Both of them felt that they had met too late.
At the same time, the second prince was extremely busy.
In order to help his third uncle find out about the Zhang brothers and sisters, he stayed in the Xiao Mansion for several days.
For several days, there was no movement from Zhang Xiaoya and Zhang Dashan.
The second prince searched Zhang Dashan's house during the day while he was out working, but found nothing.
On the night before Chinese Valentine's Day, Zhang Dashan specifically asked Xiao Licheng for a day off, saying that he wanted to accompany his sister to the streets on Chinese Valentine's Day, and also go to Yue Lao Temple to pray for his sister's marriage.
The Second Prince and Xiao Licheng both keenly realized that the Zhang brothers and sisters were likely to take action.
The uncle and nephew discussed it and decided to disguise themselves and follow the Zhang brothers and sisters.
The second prince changed into a rose-red dress and asked his aunt to style his hair into a double-ring bun.
In order to avoid being exposed, he shaved his beard again and again, then applied thick powder and rouge.
At first glance, apart from her dark skin, she is truly a pretty girl.
Xiao Licheng dyed his hair white, painted his face black and rough, and put many pockmarks on his face to dress up as an old man.
On the morning of Chinese Valentine's Day, as soon as the Zhang brothers and sisters went out, the uncle and nephew followed them out quietly.
The Zhang siblings first walked around the street, bought some incense, candles and offerings, and then walked towards the Yue Lao Temple.
The second prince supported Xiao Licheng, and the two pretended to be father and daughter.
The Second Prince whispered, "Their request for marriage must be fake."
"Why?" Xiao Licheng asked.
"When going to Yue Lao Temple to pray for marriage, the key is to go early. Rumor has it that the earlier you go, the more effective it will be." The second prince whispered.
"Many people in Beijing even waited outside the Yue Lao Temple in the early morning to burn the first stick of incense."
"They didn't leave home early in the morning, and after leaving, they strolled around the street and bought some incense, candles, and other offerings. They really didn't have any sincere intention to seek a marriage."
After hearing this, Xiao Licheng nodded in satisfaction.
It was almost noon when the Zhang brothers and sisters arrived at Yue Lao Temple.
The brother and sister came to the main hall, burned incense and kowtowed, looking very pious.
The second prince and Xiao Licheng also pretended to seek marriage and followed them to the hall.
After burning the incense, the Zhang siblings wandered around the temple, and when they saw that no one was paying attention, they slipped away to the back mountain.
The Yue Lao Temple is built on a low mountain, on the front mountain. It has been artificially renovated and has convenient transportation. There are relatively neat roads and stone steps. The entire Yue Lao Temple is located in the front.
The back mountain is almost entirely in its original state and is extremely messy. It is dangerous for ordinary people to go there, so the back mountain is a restricted area for pilgrims.
The second prince and Xiao Licheng followed the Zhang brothers and sisters cautiously.
They came to a small pond in the back mountain. Zhang Dashan took out a whistle and blew out a series of bird calls.
Half an incense stick later, a man in a gray robe came up to them.
