Simuqiao sat there obediently with a smile on his face, his eyes falling on the Empress Dowager and Princess Kangjia from time to time, and he looked like he was listening very seriously.
In fact, she didn't understand anything at all.
But that was before!
When she called up the random language card in her mind and selected Mongolian, and chose to use it...
Her head felt a sharp pain at first.
Then, the Mongolian language that she couldn't understand just now suddenly appeared so clearly in her ears and mind.
Oh wow, she instantly felt the power of the system!
This random language card is so awesome!
She loves the lottery function of the system, no explanation needed!
Just when Si Muqiao was in a daze, the voice of Aunt Lan Fang sounded in his ears.
"Miss Si, have some fruit."
"These are the newly delivered lychees from Beiguang."
"Okay, thank you Aunt Lanfang." Si Muqiao's eyes suddenly lit up.
The lychees in front of me look really fresh and delicious!
She couldn't help but reach out and pinch a bright red lychee in her hand, then peel it.
The crystal clear flesh immediately comes into view, and you can faintly see the black core inside.
She swallowed calmly and placed the peeled lychee flesh in the glass bowl in front of her.
He picked up the small razor next to him, shaved the lychee flesh, and took out the black pearl-like core.
Then, he started peeling the second one and the third one.
When she was peeling the fourth one, a voice rang in her ear.
"Oh, Sister Si, I'm sorry. It was Kang Jia who was inconsiderate."
"I was so engrossed in the conversation with the Empress Dowager that I forgot that my sister didn't know Mongolian and would be bored sitting aside."
"I hope Sister Si won't blame Kang Jia!" Princess Kang Jia looked embarrassed.
After saying this, she stared at the bowl of peeled lychees in front of Si Muqiao and spoke with surprise.
"Sister Si, could it be that you peeled it for us because I chatted with the Grand Empress Dowager for a long time?"
"Sister Si, you are so virtuous. No wonder His Majesty treats you differently from others."
As soon as she finished speaking, she reached out to take the glass bowl that Simuqiao used to hold the lychee pulp.
However, just as she put her hand over, she saw Si Muqiao picked up the bowl and handed it to the Empress Dowager just before she was about to take it.
She had a gentle and soft smile on her face and spoke in fluent Mongolian.
"Grand Empress Dowager, please try it."
"Lychees are warm fruits, which can cause excessive internal heat in the body, so they should not be eaten too much."
"Miss Si, you can actually speak Mongolian?"
The Empress Dowager was instantly struck by her clear and authentic Mongolian pronunciation.
Compared with Simiren, Kangjia's Mongolian is at most at a child's level.
Some of the pronunciations are still not accurate enough, and some words are even wrong.
But it was different with Concubine Si. The Mongolian she spoke sounded very familiar to the Empress Dowager.
It was like she was back in the prairie she was familiar with, chatting with her familiar sisters.
"I lived with my father at the border for many years, and that's when I learned Mongolian."
"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, the Empress Dowager." Si Muqiao said.
"Well, what a good child." The Empress Dowager happily picked up a piece of lychee and ate it in small bites.
"Come, Sister Kangjia, try it too." Si Muqiao handed the glass bowl to Princess Kangjia again.
"Thank you, Sister Si~"
Kang Jia smiled sweetly at Si Muqiao, stretched out her slender fingers to pinch a piece of lychee flesh in her hand, and then asked casually.
"So Sister Si also knows Mongolian. Why didn't she speak just now?"
"I saw that Sister Kang Jia was chatting happily with the Empress Dowager, so I didn't feel like interrupting them."
"After all, it's impolite to interrupt others casually." Si Muqiao.
“……”Princess Kangjia.
She suspected that Si Mei was hinting at her!
Angry!
"Grand Empress Dowager, when I lived with my father at the border, I also heard people talk about the stories of the Mongolian tribesmen."
"They said that the Mongolian tribesmen were generous and warm-hearted. They liked to eat roasted whole lamb, eat lamb with their hands, drink butter tea, and dance around the campfire."
"Besides, everyone in the Mongolian tribe can ride a horse, so even women can become heroes on horseback. Is this true?"
Simuqiao didn't care what Princess Kangjia's expression was at the moment.
She had already started chatting with the Empress Dowager.
Well, the kind that chats in Mongolian.
Compared to caring about Princess Kang Jia's current situation, of course, improving her favorability is the most important thing!
"Haha, that's not wrong."
"Compared with the women of the Great Zhou, the women of our Mongolian tribe are indeed more active."
"Thinking back to the day, I once rode a horse and galloped..."
Simuqiao's few words evoked the Empress Dowager's memories of her youth.
The Empress Dowager was getting old, and her heart had softened.
When I am bored, I always miss my hometown from time to time.
When she heard the Mongolian folk song sung by Kang Jia today, her thoughts were brought back to the tribe of her childhood.
And now, listening to Si Muqiao talking about those things, her memory had already flown back to the land she once loved.
She knew that Simiren spoke Mongolian very well, unlike Kangjia.
I just learned it half-heartedly to make her happy.
So now when I chat with Si Meiren, I use Mongolian, and I enjoy the conversation very much. I don’t need to worry about whether the person sitting opposite me can understand me.
Not to mention, Si Muqiao is also a very professional supporting actor.
She would say from time to time: "Oh, really?", "Oh my God, no way?", "Wow, is this possible?"
"And then what?", "What? How could this be possible!", "That's amazing, I wish I could see it with my own eyes."
Coupled with her rich facial expressions, the Empress Dowager wanted to chat even more.
Kang Jia, who was sitting at the side and could only understand a little bit of what was said and couldn't get a word in, said: "..."
Wrong decision!
She thought she could use Mongolian folk songs to arouse the Empress Dowager's favor for her and at the same time ignore Concubine Si.
But what she never expected was that the person who was left out in the end was actually her?
Ah, I’m so angry!
But no matter how angry she was, in order to maintain her image, Kang Jia still sat there obediently with an innocent and cute face.
He didn't show any dissatisfaction.
Originally, she wanted to peel the lychees, but then she remembered what Lady Sima said about eating too many lychees being a good fruit, so she took her hand back.
Ah, so boring.
I can’t understand what they are saying and there’s nothing to eat. What can I do?
Otherwise, pretend to be dizzy?
Yes! This is possible!
Thus, the delicate and weak Princess Kangjia suddenly became dramatic.
Her face turned pale, she bit her lips lightly, and her right hand, which was holding the handkerchief, unconsciously moved to the top of her head.
Then, his expression became painful and his eyelashes trembled slightly.
Then, his body fell backwards.
"Princess Kangjia, what's wrong with you?"
As Aunt Lanting's voice sounded, another voice was heard from outside.
"Your Majesty has arrived!"
"..."Princess Kangjia pretended to faint.
Your Majesty, why did your brother come here suddenly?
Ah, I wonder if it’s appropriate for her to sit up suddenly now?
