Chapter 261 So That's How It Is
Cheng Weining looked aggrieved.
The second princess looked away embarrassedly.
Yuan Ruan: [Haha, I see. Tong'er, you haven't told me what Cheng Weining is struggling with.]
System: [Cheng Weining is a love-minded person. He saw that the Second Princess had recently injured her finger and appeared in a dusty state a few days ago. He couldn't sit still and was worried that the Second Princess would continue to be injured, so he insisted on getting involved.]
Yuan Ruan looked confused: [Ah? ...The injury on the second princess' finger seems to have been caused by hanging on the tree. If it had been a little later, even the wound would not have been visible. As for the dusty appearance a few days ago, wasn't it because of the strong wind, heavy rain and heavy mud? It has nothing to do with glass making. Didn't the second princess tell Cheng Weining? ]
The second princess couldn't help but roll her eyes. She hadn't said it before. She had explained it over and over again, but Cheng Weining insisted on following.
The system clicked its tongue twice: [The Second Princess has explained. But Cheng Weining has always been very close to her, and since the Second Princess is still pregnant, Cheng Weining wishes that there wouldn't be even a mosquito within a few kilometers of the Second Princess. The explosion next door a few days ago alerted Cheng Weining. But this time, I don't think the Second Princess will be able to beat Cheng Weining.]
Yuan Ruan was curious: [No way. Cheng Weining is a henpecked man.]
The second princess blushed.
Cheng Weining looked at the second princess firmly.
System: [Aruan, you still remember gunpowder. It is made. ]
When people mention gunpowder, they will think of the big pie that the system once drew.
Qi Yue's eyes suddenly became sharp.
The second princess clenched her fists in anticipation.
Cheng Weining's expression was serious: This is also the reason why he has to replace the second princess here.
Yuanruan was also very excited: [Can gunpowder be used?! ]
System: [Gunpowder was made, but the two alchemists have been researching containers that can store and transport gunpowder safely. After seeing the glass formula, Li had a new idea on how to make a stable container, so he closed the door. Zhou was unwilling to give up, so he went straight into the glass manufacturing place. You know the result, he detonated the alchemy furnace prematurely. The floating ash accompanied by the wind covered the second princess' face.]
Yuan's chubby face tensed up: [Tong'er, why didn't you tell me about such a serious matter earlier? What if it causes a safety accident?]
Cheng Weining nodded frantically.
Yuan Ruan touched his chin: [I didn't think it through before. I ordered Zhou Fangshi not to get close to her. The second princess is pregnant. If she gets startled, it will be a disaster. We have to go back immediately...]
The second princess became anxious when she heard this and said hurriedly, "No!"
Yuanruan turned his head in confusion.
Qi Yue tilted her head and looked at the second princess.
The second princess' heart tightened and her mind was a little confused. She didn't know what to say.
Cheng Weining suddenly covered his wrist, his tone a little hurt: "I just helped you swat the mosquitoes, I didn't want to take you away by force. Why are you so defensive against me?"
The second princess breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the other party had given her a temporary excuse. She slapped Cheng Weining and said with a red face, "I overreacted, but don't say anything. No means no, I want to be with my sisters."
Yuan Ruan: [Cheng Weining is really something. He scares people to death. Especially pregnant women can't stand being scared.]
The system hesitated for a moment: [Yes...I guess.]
At this time, the eldest princess, the fourth princess and the fifth princess came out one after another.
The eldest princess waved her hand in disdain at Cheng Weining, and then said, "Second sister is pregnant, not sick. If you think so, she will be more likely to get sick if she is confined to her room all day long."
"But..." Cheng Weining didn't finish his words.
The eldest princess said directly: "You have never given birth to a child, so you don't understand."
Cheng Weining: …
The fourth princess and the fifth princess, one wearing a pink dress, held the eldest princess' arm affectionately, and the other wearing a light blue riding costume, held the second princess' arm.
The two spoke softly, but the words they sang in unison were a little scary: "Why did the Second Prince Consort disturb the sisters' gathering?" "Yes, do you think we will harm the Second Sister?"
Cheng Weining waved his hands and said, "No, no, no."
The fourth and fifth princesses continued to sing the same tune: "You dare not doubt us, so why do you force your second sister to go back?" "Do you think she is some kind of object that needs to be locked up and watched?!"
Cheng Weining was sweating profusely. He actually had a lot of things to say to them, but in terms of affection, these two were his sisters-in-law, and in terms of etiquette, these two were princesses of the mansion. He couldn't offend them.
Yuan Ruan looked at the fourth and fifth princesses with some curiosity.
It was not the first time she met them, but they had hardly spoken. Yuan Ruan's impression of the two princesses was still that they were shy, silent and well-behaved. It was also the first time she saw them working in unison to confront someone.
Yuan Ruan: [The two of them have such a good rapport in their way of speaking.]
System: [They have lived together since childhood. They naturally have a tacit understanding. Ah! I live in Ah-Ruan's mind, and Ah-Ruan and I have an even better tacit understanding! Great! Sprinkle flowers! ]
Yuan Ruan looked at the system in bewilderment as it suddenly excitedly exploded into balls of electronic flowers, as if he had seen his cat suddenly start sticking to each other like crazy.
Don’t understand, but respect and give face.
Yuanruan: [Yes, yes, we have a better understanding. ]
The system has more electronic flowers: [Awooo! 】
…
While the system was communicating with Yuan Ruan, the two princesses had already set their sights on Yuan Ruan.
Yuan Ruan raised her head and happened to meet the eyes of the two princesses.
The other party's expression froze, and their bodies seemed to be immobilized. After a while, they hid behind the eldest princess and the second princess on the left and right, and then quietly peeked out like alert kittens.
Yuanruan: [……]
System: [……]
Yuan Ruan was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but mutter: [Am I scary? Or just annoying? ]
System: [Aruan is not scary. Aruan is the cutest baby in the world! They have no vision at all! ]
The fourth and fifth princesses shrank back and continued to hide behind the two princesses.
Yuanruan: [Then why do you see me react so strongly? ]
System: [Let me see...it turns out to be the shadow of childhood.]
Yuanruan: [What do you mean? ]
The eldest princess and the second princess were also a little curious. They privately asked the fourth princess and the fifth princess, and they both said that they did not dislike the little imperial teacher, nor were they afraid of him, but they did not know why they would tremble when he got closer and unconsciously wanted to avoid him.
