It was almost lunch time when Xu Jun came over to find them. He patted the grass clippings and dirt on Minmin's body with a smile, straightened her little hair, held her little hand and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's eat."
Let’s go to lunch.”
They brought rice balls and boiled eggs. Of course, they were all cold, but they would be better if they were roasted in bamboo tubes over the fire.
When he met his father and fourth brother, Min Xiangming took a look at the harvest in their bamboo baskets and couldn't help but smile: "So many good things!"
"Yeah!" Minmin was happy and said with a smile: "Brother Five and I found it together. It's delicious food! Dad, would you like to eat it tonight?"
How could Min Xiangming say anything wrong? He rubbed her little head with pity: "Okay, let's eat it tonight! There happens to be some meat left, so I will make fresh bamboo shoots and stir-fried meat for Minmin tonight, as well as yam stewed with bone soup."
Min Silang touched a handful of toon buds and said with a smile: "Hey, aren't these the buds of the toon tree? Why did you pick so many of them!"
This stuff doesn't seem very tasty, even among wild vegetables, it's not the first choice.
Minmin said: "Chinese toon sprouts are delicious. My little brother also said that he would eat toon sprouts at home tomorrow!"
"What little brother?" Min Xiangming and Min Silang asked at the same time, and even Xu Jun looked over in surprise.
The men of the Min family couldn't help but look wary. Where did this little brother come from? Having such a name coming out of the little girl's mouth made people feel hostile for no reason.
Min Silang looked at his fifth brother: "Didn't you take good care of Minmin?"
Min Wulang suddenly cried out, shaking his head like a rattle: "No, no! No, no, no, I do! I took good care of Minmin! It was a coincidence that we met Wen again, who had saved Minmin a few days ago.
Young Master! It’s the one you saw that day..."
Min Xiangming frowned: "What happened? How many days ago? What day? What happened before?"
Min Wulang: "..."
After all, he seemed to have spilled the beans!
At this point, Min Wulang had no choice but to tell everything about that day.
He was obedient, for fear of being beaten by his father. As he spoke, he quietly moved away from his father from time to time. When he finished speaking, he also stood up, looking like he was ready to run away at any time.
Min Xiangming laughed angrily!
"You are so promising! And boss! You still want to escape, right? You can escape and let me see where you can escape! If you can, you won't go home tonight, huh!"
Min Wulang: "..."
"Do you know how dangerous that is? How old is Minmin? If something happens to her, I'll see what you will do!"
"Dad, I was wrong! I never dare to do it again!"
Minmin quickly threw herself on her father and rubbed her little head against him, saying softly and coquettishly: "Daddy, don't be angry. Don't blame the eldest brother and the fifth brother. It's Minmin's fault. Minmin won't run around in the future!"
Min Xiangming's eyes softened and he gently stroked his daughter, "It's not Minmin's fault. Minmin is still young. What's wrong? It's all the brothers' fault for not taking good care of Minmin. Was Minmin scared that day?
With?"
"No," Minmin shook her little head: "Minmin chased the rabbit, but then the rabbit disappeared, and she saw little brother. Little brother, little brother took Minmin to find eldest brother and fifth brother!"
Min Xiangming glared at Min Wulang angrily.
Min Wulang felt guilty and shrank his neck.
Minmin continued to plead softly: "Dad, please don't blame the fifth brother, otherwise Minmin will be sad."
Several people were pitiful and dumbfounded.
Who can resist this? When Min Xiangming heard that she was fine, most of his anger disappeared, and he smiled immediately: "Okay, don't blame them anymore. Minmin can't run around alone in the future, you know?"
"Yeah! Daddy is the best! Minmin listens to every word of daddy!"
Min Xiangming laughed heartily.
He glared at Min Wulang angrily: "Sister, I'll help you plead for mercy. Let's forget it this time. If you are so inconsistent next time, just wait for me!"
Min Wulang nodded quickly: "Don't worry, dad! It won't happen anymore, I promise!"
He looked at Minmin gratefully: "Minmin is so good!"
His sister still feels sorry for him. This sister is so considerate!
Where can I find such a caring and sensible sister? She must be properly protected and taken care of.
Min Xiangming said: "In this case, I should really thank others."
Minmin smiled and nodded: "Well, thank you, little brother!"
Minmin sincerely felt that she should thank her little brother. After all, without his jade pendant, she really couldn't get so many gold coins to buy medicine for her second brother from the system in a short time.
This little brother is really a kind-hearted person.
Min Xiangming looked at his cute and cute baby girl with clear eyes, and his mood was complicated for a moment.
Even though she knew that the little girl was still very young and didn't understand anything, she really simply felt that she should repay the favor because she had helped her - his daughter was so kind! But when she saw her precious daughter calling out in a coquettish voice, "
"Little brother", Min Xiangming was still a little unhappy.
Of course it's not that I'm unhappy with my little girl, or that I feel unworthy of others.
Besides, not everyone is worthy of having their little girl call her brother. Forget it now that her son and the others are here. When she gets home, she has to talk to her daughter alone. She can’t call anyone else brother anymore...
"Okay, let's have lunch. After eating and resting for a while, let's continue. Take the time to finish all the work as soon as possible."
"Okay, Dad!"
So everyone started to light a fire and heat the food.
Min Xiangming glanced at his youngest son and gave up the idea of asking him what kind of little brother he was. Go home and ask the boss! What can a fifth-year-old brat know?
I heard that although this surname belonged to the royal family, it was not uncommon in Shu, especially in the Jincheng area where the Prince of Shu's Palace was located, so Min Xiangming didn't even think about going to the Prince of Shu's Palace.
How could it be such a coincidence?
The previous king of Shu was also the first king of Shu. In the past, when the world was first settled, the rebellion in Shu was suppressed and continued for a long time. As the second son of the founding emperor, the old king of Shu took the initiative to ask Ying to come to quell the rebellion.
Such a large area in Sichuan cannot withstand chaos.
Later, in order to better manage this area and intimidate the surrounding tribes, large and small, Emperor Taizu canonized this second son as the King of Shu, and ordered the Shu Prince's Mansion to be stationed here from generation to generation.
Emperor Taizu also passed down an iron rule that every generation of Shu princes must go to Beijing and live in Beijing as the princes' companions for at least six years. Every three years, Shu kings must also live in Beijing temporarily for at least one year.
This is also to strengthen the relationship between the Prince of Shu and the emperor's family. With the emotional bond, the relationship will be closer, which will naturally ensure the loyalty of the Prince of Shu to the emperor.
Although the current Shu King and Jin Shang are just cousins, their relationship is very good, and they are no different from real brothers.
