Chapter 169 Let's see what kind of nonsense you can come up with.
The creamy texture of the potatoes and the chewy flavor of the beef brisket collide in your mouth, and with each bite, the beef brisket releases a rich broth.
Although the dish was supposed to be savory, Xie Yunjia inexplicably tasted a hint of sweetness.
Perhaps because her brothers and sisters were there to care for her, Xie Yunjia had never found these things to be so delicious.
"Mmm, delicious." Xie Yunjia nodded, suddenly feeling a surge of appetite, and instructed Xiao Tao, "Go and get this princess a set of bowls and chopsticks."
Xiao Tao happily replied, "Yes, this servant will go get it right away!"
Xiao Tao brought over bowls and chopsticks. Luckily, there was plenty of food, enough for several people to eat together, and even Xie Yunjia could join.
After lunch, the group had to continue their journey. They had been delayed for quite some time because of the wolf pack. It was still dozens of miles to Anci County. If they didn't hurry, such a long group might not be able to arrive before dark.
Since Sheng Sheng was sleeping, Xie Yunjia didn't invite her to travel with her in the morning.
Seeing that the little girl was in good spirits, Xie Yunjia invited her to get into her carriage.
When it comes to horse-drawn carriages, the little dumpling gets really excited.
The little dumpling chuckled and rubbed its hands together: "Hehe."
Xie Yunchuan: ...
For the first time, I felt a little creepy about my incredibly cute little sister.
Xie Yunchuan sighed, knowing perfectly well what the little dumpling was trying to say.
Sure enough, the little dumpling glanced shyly at Xie Yunchuan, pouted, and said coyly, "Sister, would you like to go to Shengsheng's carriage? It was a gift from Brother to Shengsheng. I heard that Brother consulted many people when he ordered the carriage to be made. I just don't know which master he consulted, because the whole carriage was painted pink."
Everyone felt that the little dumpling's words had a hidden meaning, and they all looked at Xie Yunchuan with curiosity.
Xie Yunchuan lifted his eyelids, glanced at the little dumpling, feeling both helpless and amused, as if he wanted to know what other tricks she could come up with.
"Oh dear." The little dumpling exaggeratedly covered her mouth, then put her index finger to her index finger, nodded and said, "Sheng Sheng didn't mean anything else, Sheng Sheng likes it, but she's just a tiny bit curious. Who told brother that choosing pink for a gift for a little girl is always a good idea? It actually made brother so... um, the whole carriage is pink."
The little dumpling made it so obvious that Xie Yunyang and Xie Yunjia immediately grasped the key point.
If Xie Yunchuan were to ask for advice on giving Shengsheng a gift, he would most likely ask the girl herself.
Think about the second half of the little dumpling's sentence, and then look at the little dumpling's deliberately affected and pretentious little appearance.
Um……
Xie Yunyang and Xie Yunjia secretly went to look at Xie Yunchuan, their eyes filled with a hint of teasing.
Xie Yunqi, however, focused his attention on the carriage.
"Oh, so that carriage is yours. I was wondering why it was painted pink all the way up. I thought it belonged to some young lady. I was quite disgusted with it at the time. Who paints their carriage pink? It's so tacky." Xie Yunqi waved his hand dismissively.
Because Sheng Sheng lingered in bed a while this morning and arrived late, he didn't get to join the front. Xie Yun Chuan took him and followed at the very back until they stopped to rest. Only then did they catch up with Xie Yun Jia, leading Xie Yun Qi to mistakenly believe that it was some young lady's carriage.
Sheng Sheng slept the whole way without knowing anything. In the long procession, there were dozens of carriages, but hers stood out conspicuously among them.
While other people's carriages may have undergone some modifications, they were at least either black or white. Hers, with its flamboyant pink, was a first.
At first glance, it stands out among the many serious and understated colors.
"Who said it's tacky? It's so cute!" Sheng Sheng retorted, hands on her hips, her cheeks puffed out indignantly.
Xie Yunqi had no bottom line: "Hehe, if it's our Sheng Sheng, then it's naturally not vulgar; if it's someone else's, then it's vulgar."
Xie Yunqi hates those cloying colors, but if her younger sister uses them, they'll be so cute and not at all tacky!
Sheng Sheng was finally satisfied.
Xie Yun chuckled: "I remember the carriage maker was recommended by my sister?"
Xie Yunjia nodded: "Yes, my carriage was also made by that craftsman."
A cheerful voice interrupted them: "Hey, the point isn't the carriage."
Xie Yunchuan: "Oh, what's that?"
Xie Yunqi also asked, "Huh? What is it if not a carriage?"
They both said the same thing, but one was genuinely confused, while the other...
Xie Yunyang and Xie Yunjia looked at the mischievous little dumpling with smiles, anticipating what she would say.
After all, they were genuinely curious about who Xie Yunchuan would ask such a question.
"Of course..." She paused for a moment, then blinked and looked at Xie Yunchuan.
Xie Yunchuan met her gaze, let out a cold snort, and glanced at her with a half-smile: "Hmm? What is it?"
Xie Yunchuan was extremely kind.
The voice inexplicably gave off a feeling of "If you dare to talk nonsense, I'll beat your butt to a pulp if you enter the Wan family."
The little dumpling immediately backed down: "Of course, brother's feelings are the most important! Sheng Sheng just casually mentioned wanting something, and brother remembered it immediately. He promptly sent over such an adorable pink carriage, and even went to the trouble of finding out how to make it so that Sheng Sheng would like it even more. Sheng Sheng is so touched, so touched! Sheng Sheng likes it so much! Brother is the best brother in the world!"
The little dumpling showered Xie Yunchuan with compliments without restraint, going on and on until Xie Yunchuan finally let her go.
But Xie Yunchuan still gave her a flick on the forehead: "You can bring up anything here, you idiot."
This made Xie Yunyang and Xie Yunjia even more curious, as their second brother was usually very frank and rarely showed such behavior.
Could it be that the other person is really a girl?
But as curious as they were, since Xie Yunchuan didn't say anything, they naturally wouldn't ask.
Xie Yunjia was also intrigued by this incident and got into the little pink carriage with Shengsheng.
Stone was also washed clean by the palace servants and sent over, and they even used a perfume that smelled the same as Sheng Sheng's.
However, Shi Tou is still unconscious. Since the imperial physician is a doctor who treats people, although he could temporarily act as a veterinarian, he dared not examine Shi Tou directly. So he put some sleeping potion in the goat's milk and gave it to Shi Tou to drink. Only after Shi Tou fell unconscious did the imperial physician dare to examine him.
Xie Yunjia took the stone and hugged it with some curiosity. The stone was dizzy, but Xie Yunjia wasn't afraid.
Zijuan said, "Princess, the imperial physician has already examined Shitou. Shitou is very healthy, just a little thin. Tigers have a large appetite, and the imperial physician said that, especially the cubs, they need to eat well so that they can develop well when they grow up."
Sheng Sheng nodded in agreement: "Then let's prepare breakfast and dinner for Shi Tou according to Yan Hu's portion size? But Shi Tou is still small, wouldn't it be too much for him to eat so much?"
