Chapter 69: Mrs. Lu, you have a heart(1/2)
The next morning, Zhu Yunxi got up early as usual.
After casually washing his face, he started his daily essential lap run.
After this period of exercise, his physical fitness has been greatly improved. He used to be out of breath when he couldn't run a few steps, but now he can run for more than half a circle without stopping.
The reason why Zhu Yunxi has made such great progress is firstly due to his good appetite and strong absorption ability. Secondly, he should be grateful to a certain old man who does not want to be named.
With old man Zao's continuous support, he had the capital to exercise.
Otherwise, if he doesn't have enough to eat every day, he won't have the strength to exercise.
Just thinking about the old man playing with him made Zhu Yunxi feel full of resentment.
Look at the old man who dug it out, isn't it just a house? He actually played rogue with me for a few thousand taels of silver!
On the other hand, Lao Zhu got up early in the morning, washed his face and ordered someone to carry him to Xuanwu Gate, and then pretended to exercise outside Xuanwu Gate.
According to the grandson's habit during this period, he was exhausted when he ran here every day and could only drag his legs to walk.
I'm waiting here, just in time to take him back for breakfast.
Lao Zhu is the emperor, and the emperor wants to save face. How can he bow his head like Ni Sun?
Therefore, he deliberately designed such a chance encounter.
Sure enough, not long after waiting, I saw Xiao Nisun running panting from the West Fifth Institute.
Lao Zhu saw that Xiao Nisun was at the end of his game, but he had no intention of stopping and resting. He still gritted his teeth and kept running forward.
Lao Zhu saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart. Not to mention the child's character, he already admired him very much for his perseverance.
Since ancient times, those who have achieved great things are all those with perseverance. If this person can bear this hardship and endure this fatigue, he is a person capable of great things!
When Lao Zhu saw his eldest grandson approaching, he immediately took a towel from the young eunuch's hand and greeted him warmly.
"Xiao Nisun, come here and wipe your sweat!"
Zhu Yunxi glanced at this and snorted coldly.
"Who are you? I don't know you!"
When Lao Zhu saw that this naughty grandson dared to pretend not to know him, he was so angry that he almost threw the towel away.
This ungrateful little thing actually dares to get angry with us!
But when he thought of the injustice his grandson had suffered, Lao Zhu's heart suddenly softened.
"Xiao Nisun, are you still angry with us?"
Zhu Yunxi rolled his eyes and said.
"How dare I!"
"You are so majestic. You don't even listen to anyone's explanations. You just hit people when you ask them to!"
"You made a mistake and you still don't admit it!"
When Lao Zhu heard these aggrieved words, he immediately burst out laughing.
"Hey, look, you've wronged this little naughty grandson. Didn't we just hit you by mistake once? Why do you still want to hit you back?"
"Come on, let's just stand here. If you have any resentment in your heart, just hit us twice to vent your anger!"
Lao Zhu spoke impassionedly, but when he saw the little naughty Sun Zhen coming over and raising his hands to make a few gestures, he immediately turned black with anger.
He grabbed Nisun's collar and kicked him in the butt several times.
"You little rebellious grandson, I said a few words of courtesy to you, but you actually took it seriously!"
"Hey!"
"Don't talk nonsense. I was just comparing our heights. I didn't mean to hit you!"
"oh?"
"So that's what happened!"
When Lao Zhu heard what Zhu Yunxi said, he immediately let go of his hand and looked at this little nun.
You won’t know if you don’t look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it.
In just a few days, this little nun has grown a lot, almost reaching his chest!
"In a few years, I will be taller than you, la la la!"
When Lao Zhu saw Zhu Yunxi saying this, he couldn't help but reveal a complicated and unspeakable smile on his face.
From the emperor's point of view, he wished that his grandson would grow up tomorrow, and then he could take over his father's position and supervise the country and govern the country for the Ming Dynasty.
But as a grandfather, he hoped that the child would be happy every day and never get involved in Bo Yun's treacherous schemes.
However, as a royal heir and the orphan of the Ming Prince, Zhu Yunxi was destined to have some things that were inevitable.
"yes!"
"In a few years we won't be able to win over you!"
Lao Zhu sighed with emotion, then hugged Da Sun's head and rubbed it lovingly.
"Wipe your sweat and come back to have a meal with us in a carriage!"
Zhu Yunxi felt a little shaken when he heard this, but when he thought of the old man playing with him, he felt unhappy.
"I'd better not bother you by going to your house..."
Lao Zhu choked at these words and almost rolled his eyes.
What did this grandson say? What does "your family" mean? Why do you want to draw a clear line with us?
"You really don't want to go?"
"Don't go!"
When Lao Zhu saw that Xiao Nisun was so stubborn, he was a little angry and said angrily.
"Love goes or goes!"
"If you don't go, we will save our bear's paws!"
"What?"
When Zhu Yunxi heard "Bear's Paw", his eyes lit up.
After traveling to the palace for such a long time, although the food was not bad, it was only enough chicken, duck and fish.
This was not much better than the food he would eat in later generations. After all, chicken in later generations only cost six or seven yuan a pound.
As long as people are not lazy and can buy and cook their own food, it is not difficult to achieve the freedom to eat meat.
However, he had never tasted delicacies from the mountains and seas, especially the legendary bear's paw, which he had only seen in movies.
And given how stingy Lao Zhu is, this kind of delicacy is definitely not a regular occurrence in the palace. If you miss it this time, you may not know what year or month it will be next time!
"Grandpa Huang, my grandson thinks it is too lonely for you to eat alone, so I might as well eat with you!"
When Lao Zhu heard this "grandfather", he was secretly amused and said deliberately with a straight face.
"We're not alone. It's great to eat alone!"
"Besides, who are you? We don't know you!"
"Erhu, let's go back and eat bear paws and abalone!"
After Lao Zhu said this, he turned around and left. Unexpectedly, the little nun-sun stuck to him like a piece of candy. His arms holding him shook and he shouted while shaking.
"Grandpa Huang, you can't deny me. You are always my only relative in this world!"
Lao Zhu couldn't bear this, so he laughed and cursed "Glutton", and then he carried Xiao Nisun on the shoulder and went back to eat happily.
Zhu Yunxi enjoyed this meal very happily, and there were many delicious dishes on the table.
Anchovies, bear paws, bird's nests, shark's fins, sea cucumbers, etc. all came, dazzling the inexperienced Zhu Yunxi.
Xu Xingzu had to introduce a few words to each dish, which made Zhu Yunxi even more stunned. He kept saying, "Oh my god, it's all delicacies from the mountains and the sea!"
It's just that Lao Zhu felt a pain in his face when he heard it. He knew that Xu Xingzu was chanting it to him, and every word he said could be translated into three other words - more money!
Lao Zhu's flesh ached, but when he saw his grandson eating happily, he also became happy.
When breakfast was almost finished, a young eunuch came in and reported that the princess was kneeling outside the palace waiting to be summoned.
When Lao Zhu and Xiao Xiao Zhu heard this, they frowned at the same time, and then they spoke almost at the same time.
"What is she here for?"
"What's she doing here?"
When Lao Zhu heard what Da Sun said, he immediately glared at him fiercely.
"You can't be both big and small!"
Zhu Yunxi rolled his eyes, reluctantly agreed, then put down his chopsticks and took a few sips of the soup before he was done.
"Grandpa Huang, I've finished eating and will go to the main hall for class first!"
