Chapter 118 The mother is short, the father is short~
The two older women took the fruit plates without being fussy and started to enjoy the food.
"Hmm~ These fruits are so sweet!" Qian Duoduo was amazed by the taste of these fruits.
Li Danqiu ate a strawberry and echoed incoherently, "Hmm, my throat feels better..."
Seeing that his sister had eaten all the cherries, Qian Shuran stopped being pretentious and took the cherries he liked and started eating them.
"Hmm..." Qian Shuran made a satisfied sound, but when he realized something was wrong he quickly covered his mouth. He saw Fu Leyu looking at him expectantly.
Qian Shuran blushed and smiled at him, "It's delicious! Thank you."
"Hehe! I think it's delicious too. Come on, take whatever you want. You're welcome."
"Um......"
The two of them flew kites for quite a while and had a lot of fun. Then Li Qinghua remembered that his friend was not there, so he shouted to his friend who was still sitting there, "Shu Ran, come and fly a kite!"
Qian Shuran looked back at his friend, waved, and signaled him to come right over.
Then he looked at Ji Xingle who was next to Fu Leyu.
Ji Xingle glanced at Qian Duoduo, who waved his hand and said indifferently;
"Xingle, since you are going to take your partner with you, why not take my brother with you as well? I am busy now."
Qian Duoduo picked up the spicy strips and started eating them again, "Sizzle...Sizzle..."
Li Danqiu heard Qian Duoduo's words nearby and lowered his head without daring to laugh. This guy was too mean. The Third Princess mentioned that yesterday, and she sent his brother away today.
Moreover, she said this in front of her brother. Did she forget her brother's position in the family? Was she really not afraid that he would go home and complain?
Qian Shuran glanced at his sister expressionlessly. Qian Duoduo suddenly shuddered, unaware that danger was waiting for her. She was still happily eating snacks with Li Danqiu.
Season's joy; "......"
He tilted his head to look at Fu Leyu, who drank a sip of warm water and said, "Let's go! I'm rested now."
Ji Xingle looked at Qian Shuran; "Let's go!"
"Hmm~"
Seeing that he could finally go fly a kite, Qian Shuran took note of what his sister said and decided to bother her when he got home. He followed Ji Xingle and the others with a smile on his face.
Soon, both of their kites took off, and when Ji Xingle saw that they had mastered the skills, he and the Third Princess returned to the mat and sat down, letting the three of them fly their kites.
The Third Princess saw that the fruits and snacks prepared by Ji Xingle were more delicious than any she had ever eaten. She knew that these fruits were not available in the "Phoenix Kingdom" or even in the surrounding countries.
He immediately had an idea and asked, "Xingle, can you grow these fruits here?"
The two women nearby also put down their snacks and listened attentively.
"can."
The three asked in unison; "Really?"
The Third Princess didn't expect that it could actually be planted. She was overjoyed and looked at Ji Xingle's eyes that spoke for themselves.
Ji Xingle said calmly, "The friendly price for a sapling is 15 to 40 taels of silver. If you want all of them, please count the number and give it to me. I will have someone give the saplings to you when the time comes."
The three of them looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, fortunately, this price was acceptable.
The third princess was the first to say, "Okay, we'll give you the statistics when we get back."
Qian and Li echoed, "Yes, yes, yes..."
"Row."
They chatted for a while, and suddenly Ji Xingle noticed a group of people watching the kite they were flying.
Several people also noticed Ji Xingle's eyes. Following her gaze, the Third Princess' eyes flashed and she asked casually;
"Xingle, you are almost old enough to get married. Do you have any other requirements for getting married?"
"Hmm?" Ji Xingle glanced at her casually.
The Third Princess saw Ji Xingle looking at her, "Ahem..." She felt like she was being seen through, and laughed awkwardly, "Hehe! I was just thinking of keeping a suitable candidate for you!"
Ji Xingle raised his lips slightly and said, "I like good-looking girls, but I don't like those who are too short."
"Short? Why?"
Ji Xingle said seriously, "I'm afraid it will affect the genes of future generations."
How many people are there in the Three Princesses; "???......"
"Cough cough..."
Qian Duoduo asked curiously, "What do you mean by being afraid of affecting the genes of future generations?"
"If the mother is short, then the whole family will be short. If the father is short, then the whole family will be short."
Ji Xingle added, "So in order for my offspring to not be short, my husband can't be too short either."
"hiss......"
The three were shocked and said in unison, "Is there such a saying?"
"Ah."
The three of them looked at each other, and their eyes seemed to convey a message.
The Third Princess: [Can this be believed?]
Lots of money; [Unsure...]
Li Danqiu; [But since it was her who said it, I think it’s credible. ]
The third princess frowned and thought, forget it, no matter whether it is trustworthy or not, just don’t find a husband who is too short.
The three of them looked at each other again, guessed what he was thinking, nodded with a smile, and their mood suddenly became brighter.
Looking at the expressions of the three of them, Ji Xingle raised his eyebrows. Did they accept this question so quickly?
"Cough cough..."
Qian Duoduo asked again, "How tall is not considered short?"
Li Danqiu also looked at Ji Xingle with shining eyes.
"Uh..." Now it was Ji Xingle's turn to get stuck.
"I just hope it doesn't just reach my armpits."
Ji Xingle didn't dare to say anything else, otherwise the short men in the "Phoenix Country" would become sinners if they couldn't find a wife.
Several people breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Ji Xingle's words, because some of their husbands were just as tall as their armpits.
Ji Xingle saw them breathe a sigh of relief, and his heart skipped a beat. Oh my god! No way? Did they really find it?
Ji Xingle didn't show it on his face, but he was relieved in his heart. Fortunately, he didn't say that he could only accept the shoulder, otherwise it would really be a sin to harm innocent people...

While flying kites, the man in orange brought his friends to Fu Leyu and the others, looking at their kites with envy.
The man in orange looked at the kite in his hand, then saw their kite, and finally couldn't help but stepped forward and asked; "Hello, can I borrow your kite to play with for a while?"
Fu Leyu knew that someone was watching them, but when he was suddenly asked, he was stunned for a moment. After confirming that he was being asked, he smiled and refused;
"Sorry, I don't lend this."
The orange-clothed man was not angry when he saw Fu Leyu refused. He looked at Qian and Li's kites and asked again expectantly;
"Then do you have any extra kites? I can buy them with money."
His friends also looked at Fu Leyu expectantly, as if waiting for him to tell them how much they had so they could buy it.
Fu Leyu saw that the man in orange and his friends really wanted it, and also saw the kites in their hands.
He understood too well the feeling of having what he wanted right in front of him, but not being able to get it.
