Chapter 201 He has the shadow of Nangong Yan
Not only was Ye Tang's laughter a bit scary, but her behavior had also changed. She was dignified and elegant one second, but became careless the next. Her sitting posture was as casual as possible, and she no longer looked like a noble princess at all.
"I grew up in the countryside, and it's really hard for me to learn the rules of the capital. I have to learn how to walk, eat, drink tea, and everything else. This makes me feel that all those years in the countryside were wasted. I'm tired, really tired." Ye Tang said, smiling apologetically at the Gao family, "I speak frankly, so don't be offended. Just listen to the nice things, and don't listen to the bad things!"
Jamel Xiao looked at her with satisfaction: "That's right, that's how it should be. We are at Uncle Gao's house, not someone else's. We are all family. There is no need to make those useless rules. Uncle Gao, don't you think so?"
The last sentence was directed to Gao Yi.
Gao Yi had come back to his senses and nodded: "Your Majesty is right."
Xiao Jingxuan said: "My uncle and grandfather always say that the capital is different from the countryside. I can choose not to follow those rules, but I must understand them. No matter what, I still have to learn what I should learn, and I have to go to the Imperial Academy to learn. It's too painful. I didn't even go to a school when I was in the countryside."
Ye Tang said bitterly, "The Emperor also found a tutor for this princess. I have to learn all those miscellaneous rules, such as playing chess and painting. I am almost bald. Isn't it said that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent? Since women don't need talent, why should this princess learn these?"
The Gao family was amused by the couple's sudden change in words and actions. They were indeed worthy of being from the countryside. They were just as embarrassing as the rumors said.
Gao Yuman said: "Princess, a woman without talent is virtuous. It means that a woman has talent but does not show it in front of her husband. Instead, she behaves humbly and submissively. This is the virtue of a woman. It does not mean that a woman does not need talent or literacy. A woman with extraordinary talent can better support her husband and raise children."
"Really?" Ye Tang slapped his head and said, "This is different from what I learned in the countryside."
"How can what you learn in the countryside be compared with what you learn in the capital?" Qiao laughed out loud.
Ye Tang glanced at her.
Qiao realized that she had said the wrong thing and apologized quickly: "Princess, I didn't mean that, I..."
"Mrs. Gao is right." Ye Tang smiled heartlessly, "The things in the countryside are indeed not comparable to those in the capital. Country people only know how to farm, raise chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep... My father is a butcher, and I have been learning how to butcher pigs and sell pork since I was a child. My ability is beyond doubt. I will show you my pig-killing skills someday. I can also kill chickens and ducks..."
Everyone in the Gao family: "......"
This princess is not only unruly, but also a bit stupid. It is too unlucky to say the word "kill" in someone else's home during the New Year.
Xiao Jingxuan did not stop him and let Ye Tang do whatever he wanted to do to harm the women of the Gao family.
He kept talking to Gao Ji and Gao Yi.
"Brother Gao, have you met my father?"
"Of course I have, Uncle Nangong is the god of war that I admire the most!"
"Really? I envy you for having met my dad. I'm different from you. I've never seen my parents since I was born. I haven't seen them before, and I won't be able to see them in the future."
"Don't be sad, Your Majesty. You still have us. My father and Uncle Nangong are brothers. He will love you like your own father."
Xiao Jingxuan looked at Gao Yi expectantly: "Really? Uncle Gao."
Gao Yi looked at him lovingly: "Yeah."
Perhaps because he saw that Xiao Jingxuan was not arrogant, and that he was from the countryside and knew nothing, and that he was very pitiful because he had no parents, Gao Ji wanted to show off, so he smiled and said, "Uncle Nangong loved me, my elder brother, and my third sister very much when he was alive. He would give us a lot of good things every year. I still treasure those things. Would you like to take a look, Your Majesty?"
"Think about it, anything related to my dad is of interest to me."
"Does Gao Er have a portrait of my father?"
"Yes, but I don't have your mother's portrait. Oh, by the way, my father has your mother's portrait. Dad..." Gao Ji wanted to say something, but he saw Gao Yi's face was a little gloomy, so he shut up immediately.
Xiao Jingxuan seemed not to notice, and excitedly grabbed Gao Yi's hand: "Uncle Gao, can you let me take a look at my mother's portrait? Although my uncle also has portraits of my parents, they were painted by him. He is a rough man and his paintings are not good. You are the prime minister, you are knowledgeable and have unparalleled painting skills. The portrait you draw must be better than my uncle's. Can you let me take a look, please? I'll only take a look and won't snatch it away. I promise."
Xiao Jingxuan kept pestering Gao Yi, grabbing his hand and shaking it, and his coquettishness made Gao Yi a little unable to bear it.
Gao Yi has always been aloof and serious, and is extremely strict with his children and grandchildren. They would never act like this to him. Xiao Jingxuan is the first person who dares to talk to him like this.
At this moment, Gao Yi seemed to see someone through Xiao Jingxuan.
Nangong Yan!
Recalling the first time he met Nangong Yan when he was young, Nangong Yan was so outgoing and familiar. In order to get half a piece of the pie in his hand, he shamelessly acted like a wretch.
Xiao Jingxuan and Nangong Yan are really similar, both in appearance and personality.
They are truly father and son!
"If Your Majesty wants to see it, I will show you my true self." Gao Yi looked at Xiao Jingxuan lovingly: "If you want to hear the story of your parents, I can also tell you my true self."
Jamel Xiao was instantly happy: "Okay, okay, that's great, I want to listen, I want to listen, I have plenty of time to listen to Uncle Gao's stories."
Gao Ji came over and said, "Dad, I also..."
Gao Yi gave him a cold look: "Go away, don't be an eyesore here."
Gao Ji: “…”
Ye Tang stayed to continue chatting with the women of the Gao family, while Xiao Jingxuan and Gao Yi left.
As Xiao Jamel walked, he asked, “Uncle Gao, why didn’t I see Brother Gao?”
"He is sick and is afraid of meeting strangers." Gao Yi said.
"What's the disease? I'm a doctor. I can help him take a look."
Gao Yi paused and asked: "Do you know medical skills?"
"Well, I learned a little from the village doctor." Xiao Jingxuan said honestly.
Gao Yi looked at him seriously, turned his head and said, "Don't bother your Highness. My eldest son's illness cannot be cured, and the imperial doctors can't do anything about him."
......
Here, after Ye Tang chatted with the women of the Gao family for a while, he suggested walking around the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Qiao and Gao Yumen led her there without letting the children follow.
Ye Tang came to the Prime Minister's Mansion this time with only Lihua, a maid. When the master and servant were strolling around, they couldn't help but exclaim in amazement when they saw the beautiful rockery and rare trees.
