Chapter 3958 Will the princess become a queen?
Soon Yang Ruoqing brought the pole and stuffed the two ends of the pole into the rope sleeves of the two barrels, making them strong.
"Come on, give it a try!" she said, patting the pole.
Mu Zichuan squatted down, put the pole on his shoulders, then picked it up with gritted teeth and left.
Two buckets filled with water were swinging violently on his shoulders, swinging back and forth, and even his walking steps were swaying as if he was drunk.
After walking for a long time, I was still spinning in circles. A lot of water sloshed out of the bucket, and the bamboo hat used to cover the mouth of the bucket fell to the ground.
"Steady, steady, keep your body's center of gravity!" Yang Ruoqing shouted from the side. Seeing that he looked like he was about to fall, she rushed forward to help him.
"Be careful!" she reminded again.
Mu Zichuan's face turned red and he gasped, "I can do it, Qing'er, please get out of the way."
Yang Ruoqing got out of the way.
Mu Zichuan carried the water and walked a few more steps on the same spot, probably trying to figure out the trick.
This time, he seemed to have touched something, his steps were much more steady, and the bucket did not shake like before.
Yang Ruoqing said: "I see that Tang Yazi carries water not sideways to the left and right like this, but in front and back. How about you try it?"
Mu Zichuan Road After saying "OK", he squatted down, put down the bucket and picked it up again.
This time, it was much easier to control.
There was a smile on his face and he said: "Feng Tang's method works, so I will go back."
Yang Ruoqing picked up the bamboo hat that fell on the ground and covered the mouth of the bucket again for him. : "Slow down on the road, come back anytime when the water runs out."
"Okay!" Mu Zichuan responded, picked up the water and left.
Watching his figure disappear, Yang Ruoqing smiled happily.
I couldn't help but think of many years ago, when he was still a young man who only knew how to study.
That time, he carried a wooden bucket to the pond to fetch water at night, and the two of them had a dispute.
He fell into the water with his bucket, and she pulled him up.
Looking at his thin arms struggling to carry a bucket of water, she laughed at him at the time and gave him a sentence: He is a scholar who is useless!
Unexpectedly, the thin scholar back then has gradually grown into a responsible man.
Well done, I hope he can continue to work hard!
On a rainy night, there was lightning and thunder outside.
In the room, Yang Ruoqing left a dim orange lamp beside the bed, making the room warm.
Mosquito nets made of fine gauze are ventilated and can prevent mosquitoes from entering.
The mat on the spacious bed is refreshing and cool, and the sachet under the pillow contains spices such as mugwort and calamus that can calm the mind and ward off evil spirits.
After taking a bath, mother and daughter, who had put on ice silk silk pajamas, were lying together. Yang Ruoqing was telling Baby Luo a bedtime story in a soft voice.
Like a little puppy, Luo Baobao curled up next to Yang Ruoqing, listening with great interest with his big eyes open.
“...No matter how hard the stepmother’s two daughters tried, they even used a knife to cut off half of their own feet, but they couldn’t fit into the glass slippers given by the prince... At this time, Cinderella never Walking over from the backyard, she put the broom in her hand On the other hand, he said softly, “Your Highness, can I try it?” Get on the glass slipper."
"Everyone was shocked, and the prince recognized at a glance that the Cinderella in front of him was the beautiful girl who danced with him at the ball a few nights ago." "The prince knelt down on one knee and proposed to Cinderella , and then took Cinderella back to the prince's house The king held a grand wedding for them, and Cinderella became the queen. Okay, the story is over, my little princess, why are your eyes so open? Are you getting more excited the more you hear this? "
Yang Ruoqing gently scraped Baobao Luo's nose and couldn't help but smile.
Baobao Luo twisted his body coquettishly and reached out to hug one of Yang Ruoqing's arms.
The soft and pleasant childish voice asked her: "Mom, you just called me little princess, am I also a princess? However, my father is a general who protects the country, but he is not an emperor!"
Seeing the confusion on her face, Yang Ruoqing smiled.
"You are the daughter of a general. Your father is not an emperor, nor is he a king in fairy tales." She hugged Baby Luo tightly and explained patiently.
"The little princess in my mother's mouth does not refer to your position or status, but the nickname she gives you in private."
"You are the apple of my parents' eyes, the little princess in my parents' hearts, but in You can’t say this kind of thing outside, and it won’t sound good to anyone who cares about it, so don’t mention it outside.”
Yang Ruoqing warned again, even though she has been in this era for more than ten years, it is basically the same. has been integrated into this era.
But as a modern soul, many modern things are still deeply engraved in her and are difficult to erase.
For example, the nickname "Little Princess" was shouted out uncontrollably.
But in ancient times, this was a taboo, otherwise it would be said that you wanted to rebel.
Fortunately, Baby Luo is now nine years old and understands a lot of things. If you tell her, she will naturally not talk nonsense outside.
"Bao, are you okay with sleeping?" Yang Ruoqing asked softly again.
Baby Luo's eyes rolled, "Mom, I have one last question to ask. After I finish asking, I promise to sleep well."
Yang Ruoqing stroked Baby Luo's head, " OK, you ask.”
Luo Baobao said: "Mom, do all princesses marry princes? When the princesses grow up, they will become queens?"
Uh...
As for this issue, to be honest, in fairy tales This is really how the stories are used to trick children.
But in reality, it is extremely complicated. It took three days and three nights to explain it clearly.
"Mom, answer me, will all princesses become queens when they grow up?" Luo Baobao asked again.
Yang Ruoqing organized the words and said: "This is the routine in fairy tales, but it is not necessarily the case in reality."
"In reality, the husband of a princess is called the consort. Whether the princess can be the queen depends on the consort." Do you have the ability to become a king?"
Yang Ruoqing felt that this was the most comprehensive explanation she could give.
"Mom, being a princess, I'm not talking about the little princess in the palm of my parents' hands, I'm talking about the kind of real princess, aren't they all happy?" Baby Luo asked curiously.
Yang Ruoqing shook her head: "Being a princess is actually not as happy as we imagined."
"In the royal family, princesses are simply chess pieces used for marriage. Some princesses have to marry far away in order to get married, and they will never come back for the rest of their lives."
"My mother knew a ninth princess before, and she was like this. "
Muzichuan came back this time and brought back another news.
That was the last time the Ninth Princess assisted the Protector General Luo Fengtang and the imperial envoy Daan in uncovering the treasonous actions of the Tianhai County governor and his son in the name of marriage in Tianhai County.
The Ninth Princess made atonement, offsetting her previous guilt of secretly hiding Taoist Master Qingxu of the Black Lotus Sect.
