Chapter 133 Arguing with a Sheep
As the two little girls disappeared into the distance, Xie Yun said, "Let's go too."
As the group lifted their feet, Xie Yunqi suddenly stepped back from Chaoxia and took over the task of pushing Xie Yunwen.
Xie Yunwen was puzzled when Xie Yunqi suddenly rolled up his sleeves, as if gathering strength: "Fourth Brother, watch me help you catch up with them!"
Xie Yunwen was startled and gripped the armrests tightly, trying to stop him: "Fifth brother, you—"
But before he could speak, Xie Yunqi had already pushed Xie Yunwen and rushed out like a rocket.
"Fifth Brother!"
Xie Yunyang and Xie Yunchuan were taken aback, then burst out laughing.
The children each had their own way of playing, but Xie Yunchuan and Xie Yunyang were the two calmest, strolling slowly with their hands behind their backs.
Xie Yun-yang wore a faint smile as always, but unlike in the palace, she appeared very relaxed.
Xie Yunchuan glanced at him and chuckled.
Xie Yun asked in confusion, "What are you laughing at, Second Brother?"
"It's nothing, I just feel that these kinds of times are quite rare."
Xie Yun nodded in deep agreement upon hearing this.
The two brothers were close. Although the relationship between the crown prince and the prince could be considered that of ruler and subject, Xie Yun never presumptuously acted as the crown prince.
The two are brothers and good friends.
Xie Yun-yang didn't really like navigating the court, and he didn't want to be a typical crown prince like Empress Zheng had suggested. Such a person was too ruthless, too cold, and too lonely.
He had to face too many things he didn't like in the palace, and only at Yunshan Farm could he catch his breath for a moment.
Everything here was free, beautiful, and pure, making him feel incredibly relaxed.
Why can't a monarch have a benevolent side?
Xie Yun-yang felt that Xie Yun-chuan was actually more suitable to be the crown prince than he was.
He'd be better off traveling around and seeing the vastness of the world.
The two little girls rode their horses for a short while and arrived next to the red house. There was a row of troughs for sheep to eat, and many sheep were leisurely eating in front of the troughs.
Sheng Sheng found it novel and pulled Xie Yunjia to take a look from a distance.
Knowing they were coming to visit, someone had already cleared out the large grassland hillside at the foot of Yanshan Mountain while they were eating. The sheep were driven to other places, and the grassland was cleared.
Seeing that Sheng Sheng was watching with great interest, the shepherd brought out a basket of carrots and asked them, "Your Highness, would you like to try feeding the sheep yourself? These sheep are very docile, and as long as you don't intentionally hurt them, they are very friendly. Especially when you bring food to feed them, they will be very obedient and let people pet them."
Even if the shepherd doesn't say it, you can feel the kinship of these lambs in every sound.
Because all she could hear were exclamations like "Delicious! Delicious!" "Smells so good, this hay..." "So delicious!" "So good!"
There was no awkwardness towards strangers; all they saw was their love for food.
Sometimes Sheng Sheng feels that her ability to hear animals talk is actually quite bad. Listening to the cheeping of these lambs, she feels that her behavior of eating a whole roasted lamb was particularly bad...
QAQ
"Sister, let's go feed the sheep!"
After watching for a while, Sheng Sheng found the way the lambs were chewing their food very cute and was eager to feed them, so she happily accepted the shepherd's suggestion.
Xie Yunjia subconsciously waved her hand: "I don't want to, that's childish."
The little dumpling might find it amusing, but she's thirteen years old; why is she getting involved in these childish games?
When Xie Yunqi comes over and sees this, he'll definitely laugh at her for being childish.
She didn't want to hear Xie Yunqi using this to criticize her every day from now on.
Without trying to dissuade her, she smiled and took a small basket of chopped carrots from the shepherd. Not caring about the sheep droppings on the ground, she slung the basket over her elbow and ran over to a lamb with the softest wool, carrying a carrot in her hand.
"Little lamb, little lamb, come and eat carrots!"
The sheep, chewing its food, looked up and bit into the half-carrot that Sheng Sheng had offered it. Then, staring at her, it said, "Are you not human?"
Sheng Sheng: "?"
I felt offended.
Seeing how cute the little lamb was, Sheng Sheng just pouted and said, "If you say that again, I won't give you any carrots!"
Xie Yunjia: ?
Who are you talking to?
Sheng Sheng blinked somewhat guiltily, just about to explain, when the little lamb bleated and turned to look at Xie Yunjia, as if to say: Why are you talking to me?
Xie Yunjia: "..."
How could she see provocation in a sheep?
As if to verify Xie Yunjia's idea, the little lamb crunched the carrot in its mouth, then rubbed its hind legs on the ground, kicking up dirt as if it were very dissatisfied, and then exhaled through its nose.
Xie Yunjia: ...?
"Hey, this is the first time I've ever seen a sheep dare to challenge me, the princess. Do you know that no one in the entire palace dares to mess with me?"
After a pause, Xie Yunjia added, "...except for Father and Mother."
Xie Yunjia lifted her skirt, walked over to Shengsheng in a few steps, grabbed a carrot, and shoved it into the little lamb's mouth: "Eat! Eat as much as you want! Don't you love to eat? Eat your fill, grow lots of meat, and then I'll braise you! Stir-fry you! Grill you! Make you into soup!"
lamb:"?"
Sheng Sheng burst into laughter. She never expected that Xie Yunjia, who had just been righteously saying that feeding sheep was childish, would start arguing with the sheep over a single action and even threaten to turn it into a delicacy.
Unfortunately, the little lamb can understand Sheng Sheng's words, but not Xie Yunjia's.
All the little lamb knew was that the girl was babbling something and then she held out a carrot.
Little Lamb: "What is she saying?"
Then he took a bite out of the carrot in Xie Yunjia's hand, saying it was delicious as he savored it. Because they were so close, some of his saliva splashed onto Xie Yunjia's hand.
Xie Yunjia screamed and hurriedly pulled out her handkerchief to wipe her face. She angrily pointed at the sheep and yelled, "You ungrateful sheep! You eat what I tell you to eat, but would you stew yourself if I told you to?!"
Sheng Sheng laughed even louder, laughing so hard she was hiccuping.
My sister is so funny, hahaha.
One second she's a proud and noble princess, the next she's like a sulking little girl, throwing a tantrum at the sheep.
The shepherd looked alarmed, fearing that the princess might stew all the sheep in a fit of anger, so he quickly brought out a basin of water for her to wash her hands.
Because it was sudden, no hot water was boiled, so cold water was served.
But Xie Yunjia didn't care about the cold water at all and carefully washed her hands several times.
Even after washing, she was still angry, her face still showing resentment. She wiped her hands clean with a handkerchief and threw the handkerchief she had used to wipe the sheep's saliva forward.
