"Go back to the palace at night." Chu Jun said.

Tong Ran was secretly surprised for a moment, and reflected on whether he was just being sentimental.

After roasting the meat for a while, Chu Jun left as expected.

When Tong Ran sent him out, Chu Jun didn't want to ask, but he opened his mouth anyway, and he said plainly, "Aren't you going back with me?"

Tong Ran was a little secretly happy, but also said calmly on his face: "The tiger is still sleeping, so don't move it."

"En." Chu Jun responded lightly, turned around and got into the car.

Tong Ran bowed his hands and sent it off respectfully.

Later, when the little tiger woke up, Tong Ran roasted a few pieces of meat for it too.

Recently, the little tiger has become more and more obedient. Tong Ran just protested twice when he rubbed it.

Tong Ran grilled the meat for it with his own hands, and the little tiger ate very deliciously. Tong Ran took the opportunity to touch its back, and stroked the thick fur of the little tiger.

The little tiger glanced at him and continued to eat meat.

After eating, Tong Ran took the little tiger to play for a while, and then went to bed with it.

After breakfast the next day, the little tiger woke up on time and bit the corner of Tong Ran's robe. "Alright, I'll take you with me." Tong Ran had no choice but to pick up the little boy.

"Wow——" the little tiger let out a lazy cry, wagging its tail, and got into the carriage first.

Tong Ran had already sent someone to Qiu's mansion early this morning to hand over a name card, explaining that he would come to visit. Qiu Le knew that he was very happy to come, so she justly rejected those visits to relatives and friends, and waited for Tong Ran to come over in the study.

Just after passing, the servants came to report that Tong Ran had arrived.

Qiu Le went out to greet him in person, but saw the curtain of the carriage swayed, and a fluffy little tiger jumped down first.He had seen this tiger before, it was the one raised by Tong Ran, and it was said that after two or three years of raising it, it had always looked like a cat-sized milk tiger, as if it would not grow up.

"Little Tiger, isn't your name Zai Zai?" Qiu Le would occasionally tease the cats raised by the female relatives in the mansion, and now she stepped forward to tease the tiger like a cat.He squatted in front of the tiger cub that had jumped to the ground, reaching out to touch it.

"Lord Qiu!"

"what!"

In the blink of an eye, before Tong Ran's reminder came, two scratches appeared on Qiu Le's hands.

The little tiger licked its paws, and ran back to Tong Ran to complain: "Wow!"

Tong Ran picked it up, feeling very helpless, this little brat hurt someone and even felt wronged first, so Tong Ran couldn't bear to scold it anymore.

Since he couldn't bear to scold his son, he had no choice but to apologize: "Lord Qiu, I'm really sorry, my son is not sensible."

The little tiger raised its tail and bent it into an arc.It's obviously Qiu Le's guts.

"Your Majesty Tong, don't blame yourself. It's Qiu's fault. This stray cat is not allowed to be touched, let alone a tiger." Qiu Le said.His hand hurts so much, this tiger cub is really fierce, but its fur seems to be thicker than that of a wild cat, and its paws are also bigger, Qiu Le still wants to touch it.

"Wow——" The little tiger seemed to see what he was thinking, roared, and flashed two short fangs.

"Cub." Tong Ran said with a downcast face, pinching the back of its neck, "Be good."

"Wow!" the little tiger protested.

But it didn't work, Tong Ran took it and stepped into the gate of Qiu Mansion.

When Qiu Le left Tong Ran's place yesterday, she took the design drawing with her.Yesterday he had been thinking until late at night, and combined with some previous exchanges with Tong Ran, he improved several places in the design drawing.

At this moment, Tong Ran followed him into the study room, the desk and the floor were in a mess, looking like a hall in the Ministry of Industry.

Qiu Le nimbly walked through the few blueprints thrown on the ground, turned back and said seriously: "Master Tong, be careful where you step." After he finished, he smiled embarrassedly, "Qiu has a little habit of spreading out all the relevant materials. Only by driving beside you can you concentrate on what’s in front of you.”

His habit is very common, but in modern times, not only paper materials are spread all over the floor, but several computer screens are also lit together.

When Tong Ran told Chu Jun that he was coming to Qiu Le, he didn't just want to test Chu Jun's attitude, he really had something to do.

The structure of the steam train is much simpler than the bullet trains and high-speed trains of the later generations, but Tong Ran is not specialized in this after all, and there will always be mistakes with only one person's strength, so he needs the assistance of people from the Ministry of Industry.

There is indeed a problem with the part that Qiu Le proposed yesterday. Because of the limited time, they haven't found a solution yet. They came to Qiu's mansion today to continue the discussion.

There are papers all over the floor, and after walking a few steps, the little tiger realized that the space for its claws was really limited.After all, building a train is a business, and it didn't want to destroy it. It turned around and looked around, and finally jumped onto the museum shelf on the left side of the house, with a good view.

Tong Ran and Qiu Le's discussion can only understand a general idea, which is about discussing the materials needed for parts, etc. After they discussed for a while, several directors of the Ministry of Industry and Ling Shi arrived and joined the discussion.

The little tiger was lying on the museum shelf, while Tong Ran, Qiu Le, and several other officials from the Ministry of Industry looked serious. Other than the part, someone raised a new question. And relax.

Seeing their earnestness and eagerness, the little tiger was very pleased.

The meal at noon was relatively simple, in fact, the Qiu Mansion prepared it with care, but in the end, except for the tiger who was doing nothing, the others didn't care about eating at all, and they hurriedly filled their stomachs and went back.

Under the amazed eyes of Qiu's servants, the little tiger finished his lunch in a leisurely manner, and even jumped to the basin to wash his paws.

Tong Ran had already returned to the study, and the little tiger jumped onto the roof after finishing everything, and went directly along the eaves to Qiu Le's study, where they were arguing over some technical matters.

The little tiger had nothing to do with it, it crawled into Tong Ran's arms and fell asleep, it had to go back to the palace.

When Chu Jun returned to the palace, according to the rules of the New Year, he went to see several concubines, and some royal relatives living in the capital came to pay their respects.Chu Jun rewarded things separately as usual in previous years, and greeted them in a neutral manner.

Afterwards, he took Su Jin Weifu to Zhuangzi.When it was almost evening, before Tong Ran came back, Chu Jun stopped Su Jin who was going to find someone, and went to sleep in the room.

In Qiu's mansion, there were a few more officials from the Ministry of Industry. They even brought in a lot of bamboo and wood, and they saw the wood directly in the courtyard of Qiu's mansion, and began to make models.

The little tiger patrolled around the eaves, and the wood chips and bamboo chips flew under it, but it couldn't get its claws off.

After tossing and tossing until evening, those who went out to visit relatives and friends in the Qiu Mansion had already returned.It was the end of the new year, and the officials from the Ministry of Industry all rushed home before dinner, but Tong Ran didn't realize it, and stayed in Qiu's mansion for dinner.

At dinner, he brought out a story about fighting a tiger from nowhere, which made everyone in the Qiu family laugh. When Mrs. Qiu heard that he was alone, she immediately made the decision to keep him overnight.

The little tiger waited for him to refuse with a sullen face, but he heard Tong Ran say: "Then the younger generation should be respectful rather than obedient."

The Qiu Mansion arranged a side room for Tong Ran, which was very spacious. When Tong Ran entered, the charcoal basin inside had already been lit, and the room was very warm.

"We'll be staying here tonight." Tong Ran was in a good mood. They made a lot of progress this afternoon, and they expected to officially start work after the year.

"Wow!" The little tiger turned his head and ignored him.

Tong Ran patted the little tiger's hairy head amusedly: "Zai Zai, you seem to be awake all day?"

"Wow—" It had obviously fallen asleep, and it was on his lap!

Tong Ran scratched its chin lightly, and promised: "My brother is a bit busy today, so I will spend more time with you next time."

The little tiger's ears were hot, and he wanted to go away, but the cat's instinct made it particularly obsessed with Tong Ran's movement of scratching his chin. Tong Ran.

"Haha, awkward little cub." Tong Ran scratched its nose, brought the warm water prepared in the room to wash the little tiger, and took care of it by himself.

There was only one quilt on the bed, and the quilt was covered with brocade, which was very fluffy and soft. The little tiger sniffed it and kicked it away with its hind legs in disgust. "Wow!" It wanted to go back to the palace.

"You are not allowed to pick and choose in other people's homes." Tong Ran picked up the back of the little tiger's neck, put it into the bed, and took off his coat to get in.

The little tiger wanted to crawl out, but Tong Ran hugged him to his chest.It stuck its neck and struggled a few times without breaking free. Tong Ran patiently patted the little tiger's back. After a while, the little tiger gave up struggling and calmed down.

After a busy day, Tong Ran soon felt sleepy. When he was about to fall asleep, he felt the hairballs in his arms burrowing in again.Tong Ran was too sleepy, so he just hugged his arms tightly, and soon fell into a dark dream.

In the morning of the second day, after eating breakfast in the Qiu Mansion, Tong Ran left with the little tiger in his arms.

When Qiu Le sent him out, she was still a little bit reluctant: "I really benefited a lot from talking with Mr. Tong yesterday."

"Where is it?" Tong Ran said modestly.

The little tiger lay in Tong Ran's arms and couldn't help scratching his arm: "Wow!" Go away!

In human form, it has been waiting on Zhuangzi all night, and he still has time to be reluctant to part with people.

Tong Ran smiled, said goodbye to Qiu Le, and went back to Zhuangzi in Qiu Mansion's carriage.

When they arrived at Zhuangzi, Su Quan was at the door, and Tong Ran came down holding the sleeping cub, and asked in surprise, "Why is Mr. Su here?"

"Just sent His Majesty away." Su Quan said with a bow.

"Your Majesty also came yesterday?" Tong Ran asked.

"Yes." Su Quan replied.

"Is there anything unusual? Angry, or something similar?" Tong Ran asked.

Su Quan was embarrassed: "My lord, how can this old slave answer your question?"

His Majesty's emotions cannot be revealed casually.

"Then you whisper it." Tong Ran moved her ear closer.

Su Quan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he thought about it, and said, "I haven't lost my temper, so I shouldn't be unhappy." These were all superficial, and he didn't dare to talk too much on a deeper level.

Should not be ah.

Tong Ran straightened up and touched the little tiger's fur unconsciously. His Majesty was upset when he said something to Qiu Le. This time I went to stay at his house for one night, but there was nothing wrong?

Tong Ran was still thinking about it, Su Quan said again: "I wonder if I can trouble Master Tong with something?"

"what?"

Su showed his distress all over, and he hesitated: "This matter should not bother Mr. Tong, but the workers who can repair waterwheels in Zhuangzi have gone back to their hometown for the New Year. Your Majesty told Mr. Tong to take a look."

Repair the waterwheel?

Tong Ran glanced at Su Quan, his face was troubled, obviously he also knew that Tong Ran should not do this.

It's okay to repair it, but... Tong Ran glanced at the field covered with silver white snow in the distance. In such a cold day, the water should freeze. What do you need a waterwheel for?

Is this intentional?

Your Majesty is angry?

Tong Ran is in a better mood.

The problem with the water wheel was not a big one, he took care of it in two or three strokes, and then told Su Quan: "Go and get some pork and cabbage, as well as black vinegar and white flour."

"Does your lord want to eat something? Just tell me to go to the dining room. Why do you need to do it yourself?" Su Quan said.

Tong Ran washed his hands and dried them, and said with a smile: "The dumplings for His Majesty, of course I have to come in person."
