[Wow, that was close! I almost kowtowed.]
[Waaaaah...]
Um?
Yun Duoduo heard a childish voice. Was it Zhuangzhuang? Zhuangzhuang fell down?!
Yun Duoduo's heart tightened, and she stopped as if she had braked. She turned to look at Jin Zhuangzhuang, who looked terrified and didn't even bother to wipe the snot off his face.
The cloud in front stopped, and Sun Huohuo behind didn't notice for a moment. He was only focused on running forward and bumped into the cloud, resulting in a close rear-end collision.
"Oh dear!"
Ouch!
Yun Duoduo was slightly unsteady from the sudden external force, but her daily practice of horse stance showed its effectiveness at this moment.
Although Yun Duoduo was a little unsteady, she spread her arms out to maintain her balance and tried her best to keep herself steady. She turned around and stood up steadily again.
Sun Huohuo wasn't so lucky. He pounced on the ground, and just as his chubby face was about to hit the ground, Yun Duoduo swiftly stretched out a foot, and Sun Huohuo's head hit Yun Duoduo's soft foot, which was clad in embroidered shoes.
"Second fire!"
"Are you alright?" Yun Duoduo wanted to bend down to check on her, but she couldn't bring her foot back, so she could only ask him with her head down.
"How are you?" Ah Xiang was so frightened that she rushed over. She put Jin Zhuangzhuang on the ground and checked Yun Duoduo and Sun Huohuo for any injuries.
Sun Huohuo pouted, his face full of grievance, and he looked at Yun Duoduo with teary eyes.
"Ugh, ugh, it hurts..." Just as Sun Huohuo's tears were about to fall, Yun Duoduo cupped his face in her hands.
"Erhuo, don't cry."
"Hold on tight, don't drop the little pearls!"
Yun Duoduo knew that telling Sun Huohuo that men don't easily shed tears was completely useless, so she might as well say something more practical.
Yun Duoduo stared at him intently. "You forgot, we're going to the imperial kitchen."
Sun Huohuo was stunned for a moment, then her emotions calmed down slightly.
"Ah, ah, yes, we need to go eat something delicious, Huo Huo is so hungry..."
Ah Xiang helped Sun Huohuo stand up. Fortunately, he was wearing thick winter clothes, and although his robes had some signs of wear and tear, he was not seriously injured.
Seeing that he and Yun Duoduo were both alright, he was relieved.
"Come on, Erhuo, it's just a fall, it happens all the time."
"It's nothing serious. You'll get used to it after a while!"
Yun Duoduo fell quite a few times in modern times, often bruising her knees and scraping her arms.
"Huh? You'll be falling down a lot more often in the future?" Sun Huohuo asked Yun Duoduo very seriously.
"yes!"
She took Sun Huohuo and Jin Zhuangzhuang's hands and slowly walked towards the imperial kitchen.
"I was too excited just now. Let's take it slow this time."
"Walk slowly, and you won't fall."
The three little ones walked side by side, one limping, one standing upright, and one struggling to move their still not very agile little legs quickly.
By the time they arrived at the imperial kitchen, the group was already sweating.
"The little princess is here! Oh, why do you look so tired?" Aunt Wu squatted down, wiped her hands on her apron, and wiped the sweat from Yun Duoduo's forehead.
"In the dead of winter, if you sweat after running around, you have to wipe it off quickly, otherwise, what if you catch a cold?!"
"Young master, what happened to your clothes? Did you get into a fight?" Aunt Wu glanced at the somewhat tired Yun Duoduo, and then at Sun Huohuo, whose clothes were a bit tattered.
[Did the little princess and the little prince get into a fight?]
"Aunt Wu, we didn't fight!" As soon as she said this, Yun Duoduo really wanted to cover her mouth.
The ability to hear other people's thoughts must not be revealed!
"Uh, I mean, I was walking too fast and tripped." Yun Duoduo scratched her head.
Upon hearing that they had fallen on the road, Aunt Wu acted as if something terrible had happened, and she circled around to carefully examine Yun Duoduo and Sun Huohuo.
"My goodness! Young master, Aunt Wu is going to make you some pig's trotter soup to nourish your body!"
Pig's trotter soup? Yun Duoduo found it very strange. Why make pig's trotter soup? Wouldn't pork rib soup be better?
"Thank you, Aunt Wu," Sun Huohuo said with a grin.
Seeing that the topic was gradually going astray, Yun Duoduo didn't care about that and said directly to Aunt Wu, "Aunt Wu! Give me some sheep intestines!"
She wanted to use these sheep intestines to make a unique pair of gloves for her third uncle!
This is the main purpose of our visit today.
"Oh dear, what does the little princess want that for? That stuff is filthy!" Aunt Wu waved her hand in front of her nose, as if she could already smell the foul, fishy, and stinky odor of the sheep intestines.
Seeing Aunt Wu's disdainful look, [Sheep Intestine: My reputation has been unfairly damaged.]
"Aunt Wu, Duoduo wants a whole sheep intestine!" Yun Duoduo repeated.
If the sheep intestines are cut open, then she can't use them.
"Duoduo is very useful!"
"And a few more, please!"
Prepare more sheep intestines so that if she fails due to improper operation, there will be leftover sheep intestines for her to try and make mistakes.
Hearing Yun Duoduo's unwavering insistence and her determined gaze, Aunt Wu remained silent for a moment, glanced at A Xiang, and seeing that A Xiang didn't say anything, she had no choice but to agree to the little princess's request.
"Alright, alright, Aunt Wu will ask the butcher to get us some sheep intestines!"
His Majesty once instructed that everyone in the palace must obey the little princess's orders.
"A pig butcher? A butcher..." Sun Huohuo's eyes widened.
"Pig's head meat".
"Aunt Wu, Huo Huo wants to eat pig's head meat," Sun Huo Huo called out as if she had just remembered something.
"Okay, pig's head meat."
"Aunt Wu, have them send over some more pig's head meat!"
...
Half a month later, the palace servants from the imperial kitchen delivered sheep intestines.
They simply couldn't understand what use the little princess had for this filthy stuff. The sheep intestines were certainly nothing new or appealing, and quite unrelated to the little princess's lovely, beautiful, and noble image.
Even from a distance, you could smell an extremely strong muttony odor.
Ah Xiang placed the bucket of sheep intestines outside the door. When Yun Duoduo saw it, she quickly changed into a dark cotton-padded coat and slipped out.
"Erhuo, come with me!" Yun Duoduo waved to Sun Huohuo.
Now, Sun Huohuo is her capable assistant.
Sun Huohuo and Yun Duoduo carried the small bucket together and walked towards the backyard.
There were more than twenty sheep intestines in the bucket, and the intestines swayed back and forth in the bucket as the two people walked around.
"Aunt Wu, that's really impressive!" Yun Duoduo looked at the quantity of sheep intestines, her eyes and brows beaming with satisfaction.
