Dragon cubs are the group pet of the Qing Palace

The so-called rice dumpling feast means that rice dumplings are placed for offerings during the Dragon Boat Festival. The whole table is filled with rice dumplings, and there is no other food to be seen.

At noon, Cheng An and his brothers returned to Danbo Jingcheng Hall together, and when they saw the rice dumpling banquet, they excitedly circled around the table.

"Ama, can I shoot the zongzi now?" The little guy ran to Kangxi and asked after two rounds.

Kangxi heard him say that he was going to shoot rice dumplings, looked at him and asked, "What if I can't shoot?"

"I'm sure I can hit it!"

After all, zongzi is to be eaten, so there is a special small horn bow for shooting zongzi, and someone will bring the bow and arrow up after the little guy finishes talking.

Seeing that he was so confident, Kangxi specially pointed to a relatively long distance for him to stand there and shoot.

Not to mention that this distance is farther than the distance the little guy shot the target just now, and the table is also higher than the archery target specially prepared for him.

After the little guy failed to hit the zongzi with two arrows, he couldn't help but frown.

When the third arrow still missed, he seemed to feel that the distance was a bit far. After looking at Kangxi, he finally decided to ask his brother for help: "Second brother, help me~"

Yinfeng walked over, lifted his clothes and squatted down behind him, leading him by the hand and shooting an arrow.

With an arrow, he shot out and hit a pile of zongzi directly.

"Wow, I hit it!" The little guy yelled happily, and immediately ran to the table, stepped on a chair, and hugged the pile of zongzi.

Looking at the pile of zongzi, he was happy for a while and immediately shouted: "Brother, come and eat zongzi~"

Yinfeng got up and walked over with Yinzhi and the others, but the little guy stuffed zongzi into his hands one by one.

"Why do you take a bunch when you shoot one?" Kangxi had never seen such a shooter.

"This is the pile that was shot!" After the little guy finished speaking, he picked up two zongzi and stuffed them into his hand, "Ama, eat the zongzi~"

Kangxi saw that he was covering his mouth with zongzi, thinking that shooting zongzi was just for fun, but in the end he was too lazy to argue with him.

After the little guy divided the pile, he took Yinfeng to accompany him to shoot all the piles of rice dumplings on the table, and then he stopped to eat the rice dumplings.

"Zongzi is so delicious~" the little guy boasted while biting the soft and delicious candied rice dumpling.

Kangxi and his brothers were also eating zongzi, but their expressions were not as lively as his.

"Ama, where's my meaty rice dumpling?" The little guy suddenly thought of the rice dumpling in his hand after eating.

Yinzhi and the others couldn't help raising their heads when they heard the meat zongzi, as if they were a little surprised.

"Are meat zongzi delicious?" Yin'e, who is used to eating sweet zongzi, asked Yinhu next to her in a low voice.

Yinhu knew that there were meat dumplings in the south of the Yangtze River, but he didn't have the curiosity to try it, so he didn't eat it, and shook his head slightly to express his ignorance.

Meat dumplings are meat, and it is better to eat them while they are hot. He asked Kangxi to order them to be brought to him now.

"It smells so good~"

When the small and exquisite meat dumplings are peeled into the bowl, the aroma of the meat mixed with the leaves of the rice dumplings wafts out instantly, and the aroma is much richer and overbearing than the sweet rice dumplings.

Cheng An slightly moved his little nose, and immediately opened his mouth to bite on it.

The sweet dumplings made by Yuchu are delicious, and the meat dumplings are also delicious. The salty and fresh meat mixed with soft glutinous rice tastes better the more you chew.

"This meaty rice dumpling is delicious!"

The little guy's eyes lit up after eating, and he began to share the meat dumplings with Ama and his brothers.

Kangxi had eaten meat dumplings before in Jiangnan, and he ate them naturally after receiving them.

On the other hand, the other elder brothers, who are used to eating sweet rice dumplings, suddenly have a salty meat rice dumpling. They always feel a little uncomfortable, but they still take it with dignity.

Yin'e was very curious, and was the first to eat the meat dumpling, and suddenly felt that it was not as strange as he thought: "It's actually quite delicious."

Compared to him, the other elder brothers thought that the sweet rice dumplings were more delicious. After tasting the one given by the little guy, they didn't touch the meat rice dumplings again.

Yinreng's acceptance of meat dumplings is not bad, but seeing that the little guy eats both meat and sweet dumplings, he still can't help but shake his head slightly.

"It's the last one." Kangxi didn't care how the little guy ate, but reminded him when he finished eating three zongzi.

Hearing his words, the little guy who was about to reach out for another meat dumpling suddenly hesitated.

The little guy is not picky about taste, he likes sweet and salty food, and he likes everything wrapped.

There are so many flavors of zongzi on the table, and he still hasn't tasted many of them, so his little hands dangled in mid-air for a few times and finally didn't fall down.

What did the last one eat?

The little guy tilted his head and looked at the zongzi in front of him, with a troubled expression on his face.

The elder brothers all thought it was a little funny to see him tangled up like this after eating a zongzi.

Seeing this, Yinfeng picked out an eight-treasure rice dumpling that he hadn't eaten yet, put it in his bowl, dug a small mouthful of the rice dumpling's heart with a spoon, and fed it to him.

After the little guy ate it in one bite, Yinzhi next to him fed him a bite of jujube rice dumpling with dates.

And next to him, Yin Qi immediately picked out a zongzi and got ready.

Seeing that Yinfeng and the others were spoiling him so much, Kangxi shook his head almost imperceptibly, but didn't say anything.

Cheng An's eyes lit up after he understood what the brothers meant. If his mouth hadn't been a little sticky after eating the rice dumplings, he would have hugged each brother and kissed them.

"What zongzi does Cheng An want to eat?" Yinyou asked him when he came in front of her.

The little guy immediately said: "I want to eat sweet cold rice dumplings~"

He was talking about cold rice dumplings with rock sugar. The rice dumplings made by adding sugar are soaked in ice water for a while, and they taste soft, waxy, sweet and cool.

Yinyou picked up a cold rice dumpling with rock sugar, and deliberately picked the center of the rice dumpling that was not so cold for him to taste a sip.

The little guy gave him a hug after eating, and consciously came to the next brother.

Yinhu also asked him to pick a rice dumpling, feed him a small bite first, and then eat the rest by himself.

After finishing the round, plus the three zongzi he ate before, the little guy has already eaten twelve different kinds of zongzi.

"Ama, what zongzi are you eating?" Cheng An licked his sticky mouth, stood on tiptoe and looked in front of Kangxi.

Seeing him poking his head over like a greedy cat, Kangxi finally gave him a small bite and said, "The last bite."

The little guy nodded, and when he ate it, he found that it was another kind of zongzi that he had never eaten before, and his eyes rolled up with a smile.

Zongzi is made of glutinous rice after all, the little guy is already full after eating like this, but his mouth is still hungry when he sees that there are so many zongzi on the table.

"Ama, these zongzi will be wasted if you don't finish them."

"We'll divide it up for others to eat later." Kangxi couldn't hear his little thoughts, so he said immediately.

"Ok."

Zongzi is really not suitable for eating more, the little guy will continue to worry about it, and Kangxi will stop chopsticks after using up the one in the bowl.

He stopped his chopsticks, and the elder brothers put down their chopsticks too.

Immediately after eating, I went to watch the dragon boat. The father and son went to see the performance of the festival first.

For the little guy, opera is just listening to the excitement, and it is not as good as eating on the table to attract his attention.

Kangxi had just watched the stage and listened to the play for a while, when he heard a small voice coming from his ear, and when he turned his head, he found that the little guy was eating melon seeds.

For the sake of today's festival, Kangxi finally looked away and didn't say anything to him.

The little guy used to ask his elder brother to peel melon seeds, but now he has learned to eat by himself, but it took him half a day to peel one, so he ate very slowly.

Seeing that he was peeling so seriously, Yinreng stretched out his hand deliberately.

As soon as the little guy peeled a melon seed, he saw the extra hand in front of him. When he looked up and found that it was his brother, he immediately raised his smile and put the melon seed kernel in his palm.

"Second brother, let's eat~"

Yinfeng was going to return it to him, but he ate it when he heard his childish urging.

"taste good or not?"

"good to eat."

The little guy got this answer, and immediately said: "Then I will peel it off for the second brother~"

After he finished speaking, he grabbed another melon seed and peeled it carefully, and then sent it directly to Yinfeng's mouth.

Yinfeng was not willing to let him peel melon seeds for himself all the time, and after eating, he touched his head and told him that he didn't want to eat.

After he said he didn't eat it, the little guy continued to peel the melon seeds, and he only peeled them but didn't eat them, all in a small dish.

After peeling out a small handful of melon seeds, the little guy took a plate to Kangxi and said, "Ama eats melon seeds~"

Kangxi looked down at the melon seeds he had peeled, and took the plate directly.

The little guy peeled the plate of melon seeds for a long time, and he was going to share it with Ama and his brothers, but when Ama took it all away, he blinked his eyes and didn't realize it.

Kangxi saw him standing motionless beside him, so he took an orange from the fruit plate at hand and stuffed it for him.

Then let the brothers eat oranges~

The little guy looked at the extra oranges in his hand, and returned to his seat while thinking.

Seeing that he wanted to peel the orange, Yinreng stretched out his hand to help him make a hole in the top of the orange.

After Cheng An finished peeling the orange with his opening mouth, he lifted the first piece of orange for him to eat.

"Second brother, are the oranges sweet?"

Yinfeng nodded and said, "Sweet."

Seeing that he said it was sweet, the little guy stuffed a piece into his mouth first, and then went down to distribute it to the other brothers.

It took a long time for a little orange guy to come back, because Yinzhi and the others saw him coming, so they either hugged him for a while, or fed him a few bites with the food they had at hand.

"Will Cheng An eat pine nuts, how many will Brother Ten peel for you?" Yin'e asked after eating the oranges he fed.

"eat."

The little guy nodded, first distributed the remaining oranges to the next few brothers, then ate the cherries Yinli fed him and went back to Yin'er, waiting for him to peel the pine nuts for himself.

Yinhu reached out and hugged him to sit beside her, and also peeled him off.

"Brother peels so fast!" The little guy clapped his hands and boasted.

Yin'e heard what he said, and put all the ones that were peeled out first into his hands for him to eat.

The little guy didn't forget to feed them a few while eating, so when he returned to his place, he was still holding a small handful of pine nuts in his hand.

Kangxi tilted his head slightly, feeling that he didn't listen to the play twice, but his mouth never stopped.

"Ama, do you want to eat?" The little guy noticed that his gaze was very generous and authentic.

Kangxi directly reached out and grabbed half of it, and took him away after the play was over.

"Ama, where are we going?"

Haven't seen enough drama... No, the little guy who hasn't eaten enough to watch the drama looks up and asks.

"Take you to watch dragon boating."

After Kangxi finished speaking, the little guy immediately became excited, turned his head and shouted: "Brother, hurry up, Ama is going to take us to watch dragon boating~"

"Here we come!" Yin'e replied loudly, probably affected by his emotions.

There is a lake in the Summer Resort, so you don’t have to go to other places to watch dragon boat rowing, just go directly to the lake.

Before reaching the lake, the little guy who was held in his arms by his brother saw a few dragon boats on the lake from a distance, and immediately shouted loudly.

Stands were prepared by the lake for Kangxi and the others to enjoy the dragon boats. When Kangxi came over, all the people present saluted one after another.

After Kangxi excused himself, he took the little guy to sit down in front of the throne, and at the same time signaled to the people below that they could start preparing for dragon boat rowing.

"Ama, do you want to eat?" The little guy asked while looking at the dragon boat in the lake.

Kangxi turned his head subconsciously when he saw the pine nuts in his hand, and after confirming that there was no other food on the table besides tea, he asked, "Where did they come from?"

"I just pretended it~" the little guy opened the purse at his waist to show him after finishing speaking.

When Kangxi saw that the purse was full of peanuts, melon seeds and pine nuts, he was a little dumb for a moment.

Next to him, Yin'e was already chatting with his brothers, asking them which dragon boat they thought would win.

There are a total of eight dragon boats in the lake, each representing the Eight Banners, and the dragon boats rowing on them are also the children of the Eight Banners.

Every year when the dragon boat is rowed, the elder brothers will take out the lottery and choose the dragon boat that they think will win.

Kangxi vaguely heard the sound of their betting lottery, and couldn't help but look at the little guy beside him: "Chengan, do you want to play too?"

"What are you playing?" the little guy wondered.

Kangxi signaled him to listen to what Yin'e and the others said, and the little guy listened carefully and said, "I'll choose that yellow flag~"

"Then you take out this purse as a lottery." Kangxi pointed at his bulging purse and said.

"it is good."

After the little guy finished speaking, he ran to his brothers and put the purse into the tray containing the lottery, saying: "This is my lottery!"

Yin'e curiously picked up the purse and opened it, and found that it was full of food, then smiled and said: "This is a lot of prizes, Cheng'an, who will you bet on?"

"The yellow one~"

"If you have vision, then you and Brother Ten are on the same side." Yin'er heard that he also chose Zhenghuangqi, and immediately boasted.

Kangxi would not deliberately let Zhenghuang Qi lose in order to let the little guy eat less dried fruit, but it was to increase the prize for this year's winner, and the atmosphere of the competition in the lake suddenly became more intense.

As the drums sounded, the row of dragon boats immediately rowed forward quickly, chasing each other.

"Hurry up, hurry up~"

When Cheng An saw that the dragon boat he had chosen was slightly behind, he immediately jumped up and shouted with his fists clenched.

Kangxi smiled when he heard him screaming so vigorously.

The drums on the lake became more and more exciting, and the rowers worked harder and harder. Some of the dragon boats were ahead of you and me for a while, and the onlookers couldn't help but get nervous.

"Oh, what should I do, Brother Ten!" the little guy realized that the dragon boat he had chosen suddenly started to fall behind, and he dragged Yin'e and said.

Yin'e said: "It's okay, it's still so far away, maybe I can catch up later."

The little guy nodded and continued to read, but it didn't take long before he heard a splash coming from the lake.

"Someone fell into the water!" Cheng An stretched out his finger and pointed.

Afraid of scaring him, Yinfeng stretched out his arms and patted him, "It's okay, they can swim and can swim ashore by themselves."

It is not unusual for people to fall into the water every year while rowing a dragon boat. It is summer, and all rowers are people who can swim, so it is not a big problem.

The little guy stood on tiptoe subconsciously, and he was relieved when he saw that the people in the lake really swam ashore.

At the same time, the competition in the lake has come to an end, and the Zhenghuang Banner dragon boat supported by the little guy is catching up and has already ranked second.

"Look, Cheng An, we are going to win!"

Yin'e said this too early, because in the end the dragon boat with the yellow flag was one step ahead.

"Assigned."

After the result came out, Yinzhi, who chose the inlaid yellow flag, smiled and cupped his hands.

"Brother Ten, we lost..." the little guy said next to Yin'er.

Hearing his voice, Yinzhi beckoned and said, "Chengan come, third brother will give you back your lottery."

After he finished speaking, Kangxi, who was sitting at the top, glanced over directly.

Yinzhi realized something, and when the little guy ran over with a smile, he picked up the purse that belonged to him on the tray, pushed the other things over and said, "All these are for you."

In the tray are the lottery prizes offered by the brothers just now, all of which are jade pendants, finger rings and other personal belongings.

These are the things that the little guy would like. Seeing that Yinzhi said to give it all to him, he didn't think about his purse anymore.

He stood in front of the tray and played with those prizes for a while, then raised his head and said, "Third brother, can I return it to my brothers?"

"It's yours if it's given to you, and you can deal with it as you like." It's just for fun, so Yinzhi naturally doesn't care about this.

But the other elder brothers didn't let the little guy return, but said: "Cheng An likes to keep it for fun."

Seeing that the brothers didn't want it, the little guy accepted it and took it back to show off in front of Kangxi.

"Ama, look!"

"If you lose, you still have the nerve to win the lottery." Kangxi joked.

"Third Brother gave it to me~"

Instead of being embarrassed, Cheng An puffed out his chest, and his tone was a little smug, as if he was showing off that he had such a good brother.

"Ama, I also want to row a dragon boat, can I?" The little guy looked at him expectantly after sharing the lottery in the tray with him.

Kangxi looked at him and said: "You are not as high as the oars, how can you row?"

"I'm rowing like this~" The little guy made a rowing gesture with both hands to show him.

Kangxi didn't agree, and the little guy immediately threw himself into his arms and hugged him, saying, "Ama, I really want to row a dragon boat. Let me row, okay?"

After being shaken almost to pieces by him, Kangxi finally agreed to him.

"Ama, you're so kind~" the little guy raised his head and rubbed his face, then took his hand and invited, "Ama, do you want to paddle with me?"

"I don't have the energy to let your brothers accompany you." Kangxi said.

The little guy didn't force it, but said: "Then Ama will see how I row~"

After speaking, he hugged Kangxi again before running over to find his brothers.

Brothers have heard the conversation between him and Kangxi just now, and seeing him coming, Yin'e was the first to say: "Chengan wants to row a dragon boat? Then Brother Ten will compete with you to see who will win."

"Okay!" The little guy nodded with interest and agreed.

Seeing that he agreed, Yin'er looked at the brothers around him and said, "Then let's divide it up, five people on each side, and then bring the people around each other to make a boat."

After he finished speaking, Yinreng and Yinzhi stood up and took the little guy's hand respectively.

Yin Qi, Yin You, Yin Yu, Yin Yu, and Yin Li were a step behind them, but they all walked towards the little guy.

"No, what do you mean?" Yin'er was stunned, and finally could only look at Yinhu.

Yinhu wanted to stand on the little guy's side, but she was a little embarrassed to be looked at by him and left him alone.

Seeing this, Yinzhi bowed his head and whispered something in the little guy's ear.

"Myna, come quickly~" Cheng An raised his head and shouted.

Yinhu was still hesitating at first, but when he heard the little guy's voice, he cast a sorry look at Yiner and walked over.

The little guy saw that his elder brothers were all on his side, and seeing that he was the only one on the tenth brother's side, he felt very funny, and couldn't help laughing.

Listening to his crisp laughter, Yinfeng and the others were infected, and there were smiles on their faces.

How does this compare?

Yin'er looked at the group of people on their side and felt that it was outrageous, and immediately stepped over in two big strides, and joined in by showing what it means to be defeated.

"Old Ten, how can you compare when you come here?" Yinzhi looked at him and said.

"As the saying goes, brothers work together for the same benefit, I think it's better for us to compare with others." Yin'e hugged the little guy up and said, "Chengan let Brother Ten stay with you, okay?"

After thinking about it, the little guy still couldn't bear to leave him alone, so he nodded and said, "Okay."

He agreed, and the other elder brothers didn't say anything else, after all, if they really want to play, there is no shortage of comparable people on the field.

Before the elder brothers were about to board the boat, Kangxi called people in front of him to explain a few words, and told them to take good care of Cheng'an.

"Ama, if I win, can I have another rice dumpling tonight?"

Seeing that he hadn't eaten enough zongzi, Kangxi pinched his chubby face and said, "I can't eat any more today."

As soon as the little guy showed a disappointed expression, he heard him say again: "But if you win, you can eat another one tomorrow."

"Okay, then I'll go~"

The little guy cheered, pulled his brother and ran towards the lake.

The elder brothers are not as interested in dragon boat rowing as the little guy, it is purely because he wants to play so he plays with him.

Before boarding the boat, Yinreng directly picked up the little guy, and Yinzhi and the others quickly helped each other, as if they were protecting some kind of baby.

After getting on the dragon boat, the elder brothers put the little guy in the middle and surrounded it.

"How can I row like this?" Cheng An raised his head and said unwillingly.

Dragon boat rowing is still quite strenuous and requires cooperation. As for the little guy with his small arms and legs, brothers are not willing to let him row.

"Second brother, how about playing drums with you?" Yinfeng suggested after sweeping his gaze from the dragon boat.

The little guy has never rowed a dragon boat, nor played drums. He was coaxed by his brothers, and he quickly agreed.

thump—

Yinfeng carried him to the drum, and surrounded him between himself and the drum. The little guy tried to beat the drum, and immediately laughed.

"This sound is so loud~"

When the dragon boat rowing started again, Kangxi on the throne leaned slightly, obviously looking more seriously than before.

The drums sounded, and several dragon boats rowed out at the same time. The speed of the boat that the brothers were on was not slow at all.

Kangxi's eyes fell on the little guy who was being played hard by Yinreng, with a smile in his eyes.

On the dragon boat, the little guy didn't know if he sensed that he was looking at him, and suddenly turned his head and smiled at him: "Ama~"

There is still some distance between the dragon boat and the stands, and the noise of the dragon boat rowing is not small, so the sound cannot reach Kangxi.

But as soon as the little guy moved his mouth, Kangxi knew that he must be calling himself, and waved him not to be distracted.
