According to the legend of the dragon clan, the dragon god breaks its shell in the evening, and the dragon clan will hold family gatherings at this time to celebrate the birth of the dragon god with their own ethnic customs.After the party is the free time for the dragons. You can choose to go out to play together, or you can choose to sleep directly, or go online.
On the second and third days after that, the family will choose a day to hold a banquet, and after the fourth day, the small families will visit each other.
This is the first time for Shen Mian to celebrate the Dragon God Festival. Although he has also reviewed the courses on dragon culture and customs, customs are always linked to culture, and it is difficult to master them through one or two courses.Moreover, although most of the representative customs of the Dragon Clan were mentioned in those courses, as Geng Chen, He Xing, as a matter of course, didn't have any records in the courses.
Shen Mian asked He Xing in advance if there was anything he needed to prepare.
He Xing raised his head from a box of clothes: "There is no custom, let's go out to play after dinner."
This unlucky thing ordered a few boxes of clothes, Shenmian's piled up in a pile, Xingfei's piled up in a pile, Jiean's piled up in a pile, and the carpet in the living room was full of clothes.
Shen Mian and He Xing looked at each other for a long time, and He Xing told the truth: "Actually, there are, but we usually don't prepare...the butlers are on vacation, and we are the only ones at home, but there are more fancy side dishes when we eat. There is nothing else. Didn’t we record a video for celebrating the festival before? It will be released in the evening, and we can’t control the rest.”
Shen Mian searched the Dragon God Festival in the past few years on the brain, and found that the royal family really sent two news every year during the festival, and then fell silent for a long time as if entering a dormant period, occasionally responding to the next door policy.
Shen Mian believed He Xing's nonsense and matched clothes for the little dragon cubs.
Xing Fei has so many little skirts and suits, although the little girl doesn't particularly like dressing up, she is still willing to try new clothes.
Xing Fei is a little girl, so she took the clothes and went back to her room to try on one by one.
Although Jie'an can't wear so many styles of clothes now, he can wear some small accessories - Shen Mian poured out a few small bow ties from a bag, put them on Jie'an's tail, and flicked it gently with the tail.
It looks a little more serious and cute.
And the dragon cubs were not without clothes, Shen Mian took out a small white coat from a bag.
The plush little coat also has a row of up-turned triangles sewn into the back and a cute version of the fire-breathing Gemstone Dragon buttoned on the front.
It was the first time Jie'an wore this kind of clothes, and the tail and body felt weird.
Although these clothes are made according to the size of the gemstone dragon cub, they are still very awkward for little Jie'an - Jie'an's front paws are relatively short, even if they fit the clothes, they still somewhat hinder Jie'an's movements.
Moreover, the cubs of large dragons are too round in size, and the clothes have a strong sense of presence on them. As long as Jiean moves a little, the plush clothes, which are light and fluffy compared to the weight of the dragon cubs, seem to suddenly weigh several hundred times.
Shen Mian buttoned Jie'an: "Let's take a look?"
Jie'an stared blankly at Shen Mian, stretched out her legs tremblingly...then her legs went limp, and fell on the carpet.
Jie'an didn't even react himself, and stared at Shen Mian blankly, like a piece of jelly that has been shattered.
Shen Mian quickly helped him up, and the little dragon cub slipped into his arms, feeling very wronged: "I feel like I've been put into a small box."
The little dragon cub raised his head pitifully: "I feel a strange force that forbids me to move."
Shen Mian is not a dragon herself, so she doesn't know what it feels like for a dragon cub to wear clothes, so she patted Jie'an on the back lightly: "Then take it off, there is no need to wear it."
He Xing laughed for a while before saying, "Let me take a few photos first. It's uncomfortable to wear clothes in dragon form, it's too awkward."
"But my Jie'an must be the best-looking little dragon cub in this dress in the whole empire."
He Xing took several photos of Jie'an's round back, and sent them to His Majesty the Emperor who had no cubs to take with him.
Shen Mian and He Xing have similar brain circuits when it comes to praising their little dragon cubs. When He Xing said this, Shen Mian asked casually: "How much is the total sales volume? Are there any other buyers to show off?" ?”
He Xing thought for a while: "More than 600 pieces, it's the best-selling dragon cub suit in the mall."
Shen Mian remembered the way Jie'an fell while walking just now: "After all, it's not comfortable to wear."
Dragons only require anthropomorphic dragons to wear clothes in any public place. Even if dragon cubs can maintain anthropomorphic state, as long as they are under 12 years old, they will not be forced to enter anthropomorphic form—if they suddenly change back, they will ruin their clothes. , and may also frustrate the self-esteem of the little dragon cub who wants to save face.
In some unspoken rules, the dragon clan is still very considerate of the little dragon cubs.
"That's not true." He Xing put away his brain, "The main reason is to save money. Several of my married subordinates don't buy dragon cub clothes because they are much more expensive than clothes in human form. Who makes more fabrics? .”
He Xing added: "There is really no need to buy it, it can save a fortune of star coins, after all, the little dragon cub is too good at tearing it apart."
Shen Mian: "..."
Forgive me.
……
Day of the Dragon God Festival
The sleeping halls of His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness are close to the legendary nursery. This is the first time for Shen Mian to see the legendary nursery—although He Xing’s parents have implicitly accepted it, Shen Mian faced the two elders. , I still feel a little embarrassed, so I try to walk around the area where the two will appear.
Legend has it that the nursery school is called Mingrong, and the big golden characters can be read clearly in the night.Ming Rong was built in Feiyun City, which is not bad, and covers an area far larger than that of Qi Ming.When Shen Mian was relatively close, she couldn't see the boundaries of the nursery school, which was completely different from Qiming's small nursery school where she could have a panoramic view by stepping back five or six meters outside the gate.
Although Shen Mian was planning the nursery during his vacation, he didn't have a clear idea of what kind of nursery he wanted Qiming to build into. Now that he saw Mingrong, the outline of Qiming's future became clear. Not a lot.
Shen Mian asked: "What facilities are there in Mingrong?"
He Xing thought about it carefully: "Two simulated battlefields, a simulated ocean, laboratory building, teaching building, playground, greenhouse... that's about it, I can't remember clearly. The main thing is that the three large simulated fields take up space, Everything else is no different from other nursery schools."
There is a big difference between a dragon nursery and a human kindergarten. Dragon cubs have to study in the nursery for six years, so in terms of hardware facilities, the nursery is compared to elementary school or even junior high school.However, it is rare for Ming Rong to directly install three large-scale simulation fields as rich and powerful.
After all, Feiyun City is the private territory of the royal family, if the royal family is willing, they can build half of Feiyun City.
Jie'an and Xingfei held hands, and the two little dragon cubs raised their heads under the towering gate.
Xing Fei: "In the future, I also want to buy such a large space for our nursery school."
Jie'an's eyes sparkled: "Dean, I will also buy a simulation field for Qiming in the future."
The simulated battle field placed in the Qiming Clearing has been forced back into Yan Zhou's hands by Shen Mian. He saw the new one on Starnet, and it will be delivered to the nursery after the courier resumes.
After the Dragon God Festival, the kindergarten is different from before.
Shen Mian rubbed the two little dragon cubs: "Then I thank Xing Fei and Jie'an in advance."
He Xing smiled slightly: "Let's go, let's go eat first, and we'll go in after dinner. There seems to be an observatory inside, let's go up and watch the stars."
When they arrived at the dormitory, the home robot had already brought the steaming side dishes to the table. Lu Xianzhi and He Yi were talking. Hearing the sound of the door opening, Lu Xianzhi raised his head: "I just told you to come over."
Jie'an and Xingfei met the ceremony obediently. Lu Xianzhi picked up the red envelope on the table and handed it to Xingfei and Jie'an respectively: "Dragon God wishes my little dragon cubs to be safe and healthy, and the path they choose in the future will be smooth and even, and they will become the best of both worlds." Looks satisfied."
The two little dragon cubs had taken He Xing and Shen Mian's envelopes before they set off, knowing that they contained star coins, they looked at Shen Mian hesitantly.
Shen Mian: "Accept it, thank you Your Highness."
Lu Xianzhi embraced the little dragon cubs, "It's too much to call His Highness, they are your little dragon cubs, they belong to our family, they are called grandma."
The two little dragon cubs held the envelope and opened their mouths, but they couldn't yell out in front of His Royal Highness's face that had been favored over the years.Xing Fei was silent for a while, then whispered, "Thank you, Auntie."
He Xing: "No Xing Fei, the seniority is messed up, my mother is older than me..."
Jie'an educated He Xing with a serious face: "The dean said that it's very impolite to raise a lady's age."
He Xing: "...Okay, I was wrong."
Xing Fei replied softly: "Because Your Highness is very beautiful, and beauty has nothing to do with age."
The little girl stood on her tiptoes and kissed Lu Xianzhi's side face: "I like Your Highness so much."
Lu Xianzhi embraced the little sweetheart Xingfei and the serious baby Jie'an, and greeted Shen Mian: "Sit down, the side dishes won't taste good when they're cold."
The whole family had dinner, and the side dishes on the whole table were almost not enough to eat. Shen Mian finished eating in a while, but found that he was the only one in the whole table who was full, so he had to face the side dishes on the table with chopsticks and memorize the menu.
Fortunately, His Majesty noticed Shen Mian's embarrassment, and he was not hungry, so he put down his chopsticks and started a topic: "I, Chord, have watched a lot of your live broadcasts and recordings in the past few days."
He Xing raised his head very vigilantly, wondering if his own father was planning to make trouble.
Shen Mian: "..."
Dean Shen put down his chopsticks and began to recall whether he had cursed in the live broadcast room.
The answer is definitely no, "Are you sick?" This kind of thing can't be counted, it's just a question about some people's IQ.
Well, no.
Shen Mian: "It's all the daily life of some nursery schools, it may not be very interesting."
"No, no, no," He Yi waved his hand, enthusiastically, "It's very beautiful. I know all the cubs in the yard, and I've watched a few recordings and broadcasts before chord. It really makes us happy all day."
He Xing found out that his father didn't mean to sell himself, so he lowered his head to eat again, and took away the fried meat crisps that Shen Mian had just put into the plate after taking a bite, which he found unpalatable.
Shen Mian glanced at it, and taking advantage of He Yi's smart brain to find the live broadcast, silently pushed the drink she didn't really want to drink to He Xing.
The specialty drink of the dragon tribe, the concentration of gold mint is so high that Shen Mian, who is very accepting of gold mint, can't stand it.
He Xing finished drinking naturally.
Jie'an happened to look up to pick up the food. Seeing this scene, he blinked and whispered to Xing Fei, "The dean likes Uncle He very much."
Xing Fei nodded in agreement.
Jie'an: "As if you like us."
Xing Fei nodded halfway, and stared blankly at Jie'an: "...why?"
This is different, brother Jie'an!
Jie'an's voice became smaller and smaller: "Because the dean gave Uncle He a drink just now, and the dean will also serve us food and drinks. Uncle He can become smaller, really like a little dragon cub."
Xing Fei: "..."
The little girl was a little tired - it wasn't the dean who took care of Uncle He, it was Uncle He who helped eat what the dean didn't want to eat.
Brother Jie'an will definitely chase his dragon madly when he grows up.Ah, what if Brother Jie'an goes after other dragons in the future?It's scary just thinking about it.
Xing Fei sadly took a piece of meat to Jie'an: "Brother eats meat."
Let's eat meat.
Jie'an nodded briskly, and the tail protruding from the chair swayed slightly.
Lu Xianzhi, who was sitting next to the dragon cub, watched for a long time, covered his mouth with a cup and laughed silently for a long time.
He Yi on the other end has already found the live recording episode he was looking for: "This is the episode, Lu Yuan is still selling handmade bags live, and his eloquence is very good. I see that the sales volume seems to be quite good, and a bunch of dragons ordered it."
Shen Mian gradually had a bad premonition in her heart.
Sure enough, His Majesty the Emperor is indeed He Xing's biological father, and proposed enthusiastically: "Actually, our royal family has an industry that makes dragon cub clothes, but it has been unable to sell. See if you can let Lu Yuan sell it. Well, it would be great if I could invite Rhine to come over as a model, and the fee will be calculated on a piece-by-piece basis."
Shen Mian: "..."
Lu Yuan, your starship is approaching you.
On the second and third days after that, the family will choose a day to hold a banquet, and after the fourth day, the small families will visit each other.
This is the first time for Shen Mian to celebrate the Dragon God Festival. Although he has also reviewed the courses on dragon culture and customs, customs are always linked to culture, and it is difficult to master them through one or two courses.Moreover, although most of the representative customs of the Dragon Clan were mentioned in those courses, as Geng Chen, He Xing, as a matter of course, didn't have any records in the courses.
