Chapter 160 Sour
"For you." Rong Chenghan said, and when he saw Liu Ruosi's eyes lit up, his heart was full of joy. Sure enough, the news Liu Cheng asked for from the twin brothers Liu Tong and Liu He was accurate. Liu Ruosi liked such a beautiful, delicate and furry little guy. It was worth it. He even put aside his face and asked someone for this little cat.
Liu Ruosi held the little cat and felt that the little cat was furry. For a moment, her heart was soft and she couldn't help but look at the little cat up and down. The little cat was not like the common breed here. Its white hair is thick and long, and it looks very beautiful, especially her big round eyes, which are blue and blue, as if it is the best sapphire.
After standing there holding the little cat like this for a while, Liu Ruosi raised her head and saw Rong Chenghan's slightly smiling eyes, she realized that she seemed to have lost her composure.
It seemed that he couldn't help but give Rong Chenghan a good look. However, Rong Chenghan borrowed the light of this little cat.
"You have to show it to my mother quickly." Liu Ruosi held the little cat and walked up the room quickly.
Rong Chenghan did not go to the west wing, but followed Liu Ruosi slowly and entered the room.
"Mom, look, what is this?" Liu Ruosi entered the upper room and saw Mrs. Liu Er sitting on the couch. She hurried forward and asked Mrs. Liu Er to look at the little cat in her hand.
Mrs. Liu also showed a surprise expression and took the little cat from Liu Ruosi and looked carefully.
"What a beautiful kitten!" Mrs. Liu Er praised, "This is not our breed, it is imported from abroad."
"That's right." Rong Chenghan happened to walk into the house, saluting Mrs. Liu Er, and interrogating.
"...It was a pair of white cats from the vassal states that were tributed by the vassal states the year before yesterday, and they were kept by the Empress in the palace." Rong Chenghan then told Mrs. Liu in detail about the origin of this little cat. The two white cats from the vassal states had a cub this year and gave birth to a litter of three kittens. Rong Chenghan happened to be recruited into the palace. After answering the answer with the emperor, he happened to see it and asked the emperor for a request.
The emperor actually gave him great face. Rong Chenghan got this little cat, but the royal palace did not return. He went straight to the Liu family and gave the cat to Liu Ruosi.
"So that's how it is." Mrs. Liu asked Rong Chenghan to sit down, and asked the little girl to put on some refreshments. "The two white cats that paid tribute are the queen's treasures. They are so pampered. They are rare to be pregnant, and that's you. If someone wants them, they are afraid they won't give them."
Although Liu Ruosi didn't speak, after hearing the origin of the little cat, she had to admit Rong Chenghan's intention.
"Why are you thinking about giving this?" Mrs. Liu Er handed the little cat to Liu Ruosi, and asked Rong Chenghan again.
"Oh, I saw that the little thing was very cute, so I wanted to come. Later, I thought, this little thing was very delicate. I was afraid that I couldn't raise it well, so I thought..." Rong Chenghan said and glanced at Liu Ruosi again.
Liu Ruosi was teasing the little cat, gently pinching the little cat's claws with the pink/ tender and soft flesh/balls on it.
"You child is kind, Si'er likes these things. When she was a child, she raised one, which I asked someone to find. Although it is not as precious as this one, it is beautiful and cute..." Mrs. Liu Er said this, as if she remembered something, and stopped and did not say anything further.
When Liu Ruosi heard Mrs. Liu's second words, she was slightly stunned. She then closed the smile on her face.
"I can't stay this cat." Liu Ruosi hugged the little cat and wanted to return it to Rong Chenghan.
"Why?" Rong Chenghan of course refused to answer, so he asked. Liu Ruosi clearly liked the little cat's tightness, so why did she say she couldn't keep it?
"I'm afraid I can't raise it well." Liu Ruosi said. She looked down at the little cat, very reluctant to leave.
She has liked these furry little things since she was a child, especially cats. Mrs. Liu Er's words just now reminded her of a sad past. She raised a kitten at that time and liked to pamper her very much, but the kitten died.
It’s not that she didn’t take good care of it, but that Liu Ruoyuan knew that she loved the kitten very much and was also raised in a delicate manner. She even strapped the gems and hung it around her neck. Liu Ruoyuan once came over and carried the kitten into the garden. The kitten never came back. Later, Liu Ruosi refused to support her and asked someone to search for it, so she took out the small cat corpse from the lotus pond.
Liu Ruosi cried and said that Liu Ruoyuan killed her cat. However, Liu Ruoyuan only said that the cat ran away by herself. It was just a cat. Could it be that Liu Ruosi would make things difficult for her relatives' cousin because of a little beast?
After hearing this, Old Mrs. Liu actually meant this.
Since then, although Liu Ruosi loves cats, she is no longer willing to keep cats.
"This cat is easy to raise," Rong Chenghan said. This sentence is not the truth, but he truly believes that Liu family and Liu Ruosi can raise this cat well. "I also asked in the palace how to raise it. Even if there are any questions in the future, it will not be difficult for me to ask."
Liu Ruosi just looked at Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu sighed, and she naturally knew what Liu Ruosi was worried about.
"... Although it is a kitten, it is very noble when it comes to particularity. The third sister only said that it was rewarded by the Queen, and no matter whoever is, she would give it three points." Rong Chenghan suddenly said,
Liu Ruosi heard what Rong Chenghan said, and couldn't help but look up at Rong Chenghan.
Rong Chenghan's eyes were full of confidence, and there was also some... motivational meaning.
Liu Ruosi thought of the tone of Liu Tong and Liu He when they talked about Rong Chenghan. Rong Chenghan must have known something to say such things. I am afraid that he will have asked about his own affairs.
Liu Ruosi thought so, and the little cat meowed again, rubbing her head with her palm.
"I'm hungry." Mrs. Liu also loves cats, let alone such a beautiful little guy.
"Get warm up some goat milk." Liu Ruosi ordered the big girl who was serving her, "find out the plate of the original white agate."
I agreed in the twelfth lunar month and went out immediately.
Mrs. Liu Er knew that Liu Ruosi was determined to keep this cat for raising it. The cat that Liu Ruosi raised when she was a child once used a plate of white agate. After the cat died, Liu Ruosi put away all the used utensils.
"Since that's the case, I'll stay this cat." Liu Ruosi picked up the little cat and said. Back then, she was still young and couldn't even protect her. Now, can't she protect a little cat? If she can't even protect a little cat, what else can she do and what can she protect?
What's more, as Rong Chenghan said, this little cat has a history. Perhaps it is just right for use, Liu Ruosi thought.
Liu Ruosi discussed with Mrs. Liu's second wife to set up a small nest for the kitten, "If you want the girls, you can sew it immediately and it will be done soon."
When Rong Chenghan saw that the mother and daughter were talking happily, he stood up and said goodbye.
"If you have something, you are so anxious to leave. Although your husband has not come back yet, you still go to the study to read. Your husband will come back later." Mrs. Liu stayed Rong Chenghan.
"Thank you, third brother." Liu Ruosi looked at the little cat, then stood up and thanked Rong Chenghan.
It is rare that Liu Ruosi is so gentle and thanks him sincerely. Rong Chenghan is very happy.
"Does this cat have a name? If not, what name should I choose?" Liu Ruosi suddenly thought of it and asked, obviously. She said that not only asked Mrs. Liu Er, but also Rong Chenghan.
Rong Chenghan immediately looked embarrassed. Not to mention Master Liu Er, but compared with Mr. Liu Er and Liu Ruosi, he was afraid that he had read the least books.
"I heard that the two in the palace are called Daxue and Xiaoxue..." Mrs. Liu smiled and said, "I heard that it is for the warmth of the call."
"Oh." Liu Ruosi thought for a while, "Then our family is called Snowball."
"Good name." Rong Chenghan nodded immediately.
"It's also covered with snow, which is very appropriate, so just call it that way." Mrs. Liu Er said.
When the little cat got its name, Liu Ruosi became a snowball, and the snowball began to be called. At this time of the twelfth lunar month, the milk had already been warmed up. He brought it in with a white agate plate carved with peonies, and Liu Ruosi was busy taking care of the snowball. Rong Chenghan got up and headed to the west wing.
When Mr. Liu Er came back, he saw the smile on Liu Ruosi's face and knew about Rong Chenghan's cat delivery. He smiled and nodded repeatedly.
"He is a sensible child." This sentence praises Rong Chenghan.
...
When Snowball arrived at Liu Ruosi, in just one day, she became the favorite of the big and little girls in the house. The wicker basket was covered with a soft silk cushion, which was the nest of Snowball, placed in a corner of Liu Ruosi's bed. And Liu Ruosi got a Persian cat from the palace, and it spread throughout the Liu Mansion. Liu Ruoshan ran to see it and immediately fell in love with Snowball.
Before Liu Ruoshan left, Liu Ruoyuan came.
After returning from Zhending Hou Mansion, Liu Ruoyuan was confined for a few more days and gave Mrs. Liu a few more needles and threads, which made Mrs. Liu happy. Mrs. Liu spoke, and Liu Ruoyuan regained her freedom. She heard that Liu Ruosi had a baby cat here, so she couldn't help it for a moment and walked over.
"...I heard that my third sister got a Persian cat, very beautiful, so I'll take a look..." Liu Ruoyuan entered the house, shook the silk fan, and looked around.
Liu Ruosi let Liu Ruoyuan sit down.
"It's rare that the eldest sister is willing to come," Liu Ruosi asked Liu Ruoyuan to look at the snowball lying in the basket, "It's it, big sister, see if it's better than the one I raised when I was a child?"
With a word from Liu Ruosi, he mentioned the old story. Liu Ruoyuan glanced at Liu Ruosi, but she looked as if nothing had happened.
"... Such a small thing..." Liu Ruoyuan looked at the little cat, then looked at the soft silk cushion in the cat's nest. When her eyes flashed, she saw the agate plate and glass bowl placed next to her, "But it is precious..."
Liu Ruoshan is the one who is most unfavorable to Liu Ruoyuan, and she knows Liu Ruoyuan's heart disease best, so she deliberately lifts up a corner of the mat and lets Liu Ruoyuan look on the basket.
Liu Ruoyuan's face changed slightly. There were several jade plaques on the basket.
"The third sister is afraid of snowballs and heat, so she specially found Liang Yu. If the snowballs are hot, lean on the cold jade, but it will be comfortable." Liu Ruoshan smiled, looking at Liu Ruoyuan's face, feeling proud.
Liu Ruoyuan couldn't help but stretch out her hand to the basket.
"Big sister..." Liu Ruosi stopped Liu Ruoyuan, "A kitten is not sensible, and it will be bad if she scratches her. Big sister wants to see, just watch..." Just don't touch it.
Liu Ruoshan laughed aside. Who knew whether Liu Ruoyuan wanted to touch the little cat or looked at Liang Yu's eyes and couldn't help but go and get it.
"Yes, if you scratch your elder sister, you will suffer a loss in vain." Liu Ruoshan said, "The elder sister also knows that this is rewarded by the palace and sent by the little prince of the Yongjing Palace... If there is anything, the elder sister will not be able to afford it."
Liu Ruoyuan's face turned red and pale, but she still resigned her hand unwillingly.
"The third sister is now learning to bully people with power!" Liu Ruoyuan glanced at Liu Ruosi and said in a sour tone.
"I can't understand what bullying people with power. But I learned a little bit from my elder sister, which is far worse than my elder sister." Liu Ruosi said lightly.
Liu Ruoyuan's face turned red by Liu Ruosi's words. However, Liu Ruosi is no longer the Liu Ruosi he used to be. Liu Ruoyuan dared not be afraid of anything in front of Liu Ruosi.
