[Qing Chuan] The Empress Dowager Raising Cubs Daily

Qiqige was stunned for a moment.

Why is this completely different from the answer I expected?

Qi Shou wrinkled his face in disgust.

He moaned and complained: "Last year we caught a tadpole, but it turned into a tortoise!"

"It's bigger than Yonggan's hand!"

"That's right, she can also croak and croak after people, and she can jump as high as the table in one jump, which is scary!" Long Xi also nodded in agreement.

Qi Shou put his hands on his chest.

In the end, he concluded indignantly: "In short, it is completely different from what the palace people said, tadpoles will never turn into frogs!"

Seeing the nods of the three little guys, Qiqiger was immediately happy: "Because the frog and the toad are relatives, that's why their babies look so similar."

"...frogs and toads are relatives?"

"That's right, but if you want to distinguish, there are still some ways." Qiqige thought deeply.

"Then how do you tell the difference?"

"Toad's baby tadpole..." Qiqige just started speaking, but then stopped abruptly.

"Emperor Niang, tell me quickly!"

"Wait?" Qiqige suddenly remembered something.She turned around and walked out in three steps at a time, causing both Tang Jingge and the three little elder brothers to look puzzled. They looked at each other and followed Qiqige's footsteps.

Qiqige hurried to the pond.

She came just in time. Duanmin, Niu Gulugege and Zarutgege who had finished observing the chicks were squatting by the lake, staring at the water surface intently.

Especially Duan Min.

Under the terrified gazes of the palace people, she rolled up her sleeves, and with a large colander in her hand, she stepped on the rocks protruding from the lake.

"Over there! Over there!"

"Okay! Watch me catch—!" Duan Min acted decisively and quickly, and caught a lot of tadpoles in one go.

"Wow! It's amazing! There are so many!" Zalutgege jumped up and down excitedly.As for Niu Gulu Gege glanced at it, his hair stood on end in an instant.

She took a hasty step back.

Niu Gulu Gege's cheeks turned pale with fright, and his teeth chattered: "Okay, a lot."

Groups of tadpoles clustered together...

This is too disgusting! ?Not knowing that there is another disease called trysophobia in the world, Niu Gulu Gege only felt itchy as if a hundred ants were crawling all over his body.She rubbed her arms vigorously with both hands, she could hardly control her expression, she was about to cry.

Qiqige walked faster and faster.

She looked down at the dark tadpoles in the bucket: "You caught them all at once?"

Duan Min nodded proudly: "That's right!"

As soon as the words fell, Qiqige immediately said: "Hurry up, throw these tadpoles back!"

Duan Min jumped up when he heard the sound.

She looked at Qiqige in disbelief, Duanmin arched her arms, and protested loudly: "Why is this? Erchen got it with great difficulty—"

"You caught it—" Qiqige fiddled with a stick, and then sighed: "They are all little toady babies, not frogs!"

"...Scarlet?" Duan Min was taken aback.

"Damn □ □!?" Niu Gulugege's face turned pale.

"What skin rash?" Zalut Gege looked blank.

"Toad is a toad, the kind with a lot of bumps on its back!" Niu Gulu Gege took two steps back, staring at the bucket while still not forgetting to explain: "My family once said that toads are poisonous. If you touch the white mucus on it, you will have a burning sensation in mild cases, or a rash and erythema in severe cases. If you are unlucky and touch your eyes, you may go blind if you don’t treat it in time!”

Don't say Zarut Gege was taken aback.

Even the three of Qishou who had just run over were so frightened that their jaws dropped, and they were terrified of having raised a tortoise afterward.

Qiqige chuckled: "Niu Gulu Gege is right."

Immediately afterwards, she changed the topic: "But there is no need to be so afraid. In fact, the white liquid secreted by the toad is also the raw material of the toad."

"Toad cake?"

"Toad can be used to disperse carbuncles, eliminate furuncles, and kill insect sores. It is an excellent medicinal material." Qiqige said with a smile, "I can't help but have a bad side and a good side, and the toad will help us catch mosquitoes , is a very good little animal."

The originally stagnant atmosphere was a little more relaxed.

It's just that Duan Min pouted her mouth again quickly, and she muttered: "The Empress also said that raising tadpoles can raise frogs, just in case, what if raising a brood of toads..."

Just thinking about it, Duan Min shivered.

Niu Gulu was already gagging, but his eyes went dark when he heard the words, and he had good control if he didn't pass out on the spot.

Only then did everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

Just looking at the bucket full of tadpoles, everyone still panicked.Duanmin pouted even more: "Then you said you want to observe and see that it grows into a frog!"

Qiqige blinked: "Emperor Niang is not lying."

Before Duanmin could refute, Qiqige smiled and said, "It's just that you found the wrong tadpoles, and accidentally found the babies of Toad's family."

She put her hands on her knees.

Qiqige carefully observed the fluctuation of the water surface, and at the same time explained to everyone: "Frog tadpoles and tomb tadpoles are still a little different—"

Her voice stopped abruptly.

In the next moment, Qiqige's voice raised slightly: "Duanmin, give the spoon to Queen Mother."

Duan Min subconsciously offered the colander.

Qiqige, who was holding a colander, stared at the water surface, her movements were quick, she floated across the water almost in the blink of an eye, and then she immediately took it back.Qiqige looked at the tadpole in the colander, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised: "Well...you have a look! This is the baby tadpole of the frog."

Everyone came forward.

They looked at what was in the bucket and then at what was in the colander, but they couldn't tell the difference.

"Where is it?"

"Look carefully, the tadpoles of toads are black, while the tadpoles of frogs are blue-gray." Qiqige explained, "And the tadpoles of toads like to gather together, but the tadpoles of frogs usually act alone."

Everyone suddenly realized.

It’s just that Duan Min still has a question: “Is it really possible to raise frogs? Will there be another one?”

Niu Guluge hesitated to speak.

Qiqige is not angry, in fact, questioning is also the beginning of curiosity and learning.She poured the tadpoles from the colander into the bucket, and knocked on Duan Min angrily: "If you don't believe me, why don't you raise them separately?"

Duan Min sticks out her tongue, but her eyes are rolling around, it can be seen that she is really eager to try.

Qiqige is also casually playing tricks.

She gently urged: "Anyway, don't forget to write an observation diary."

Thinking of observing the diary, Duan Min froze.

She looked anxiously at Niu Gulu Gege, but Niu Gulu Gege didn't want to deal with the greasy tadpoles, so she shuddered: "The servant has already made plans and decided to observe the chicks."

Duan Min lost.

She looked at Zarutgege eagerly again. Fortunately, Zarutgege was already interested and decided to observe a drawing alone.

As for Qishou, Longxi and Yonggan surrounded Qiqige's feet.

They asked curiously: "Mother Huang, what are the observation notes?"

This is also the effect that Qiqige wants.

She happily explained: "...do you three want to try it too?"

The three looked at each other, then nodded together.

Of course, Qiqige’s requirements are relatively low for the three unenlightened children: “The three of you only need to write a book together.”

They all should be.

Then Qiqige smiled and said, "What do you want to study?"

Qishou, Longxi and Yonggan were extremely distressed.

They met head to head and got together: "What are we studying?"

"Caterpillar?"

"Ant?"

"Cockroach!"

Qiqige was still laughing in front of her.

When she heard the word cockroach, her expression changed drastically, and she said instantly: "Stop! Everything else is fine, but cockroaches are definitely not acceptable."

Fortunately, they can figure out how to raise cockroaches.

Think of the scene full of cockroaches?Qiqige didn't even dare to think about it.

The three of them pouted.

Qiqige stared angrily at Qishou, Longxi, and Yonggan, and after a long while they finally gave up and decided to give up their resistance.

The three of them started muttering again.

Suddenly Qishou's eyes lit up, he looked nervously at Qiqige, then pulled Longxi and Yonggan past him, whispering, whispering.

Longxi and Yonggan were in a commotion.

Then the three of them shook hands together and announced, "We've got it figured out!"

Qiqige asked curiously: "What are you going to do?"

Qi Shou looked at her vigilantly: "This is a secret—"

Qiqige looked at the three of them.

She was a little skeptical: "It's not a cockroach... right?"

Qi Shou puffed up his cheeks.

Longxi and Yongqian also pushed Qiqige forward: "No! It's something else!"

"Then—can't you tell Queen Mother?"

"They say it's a secret!"

"Hey... it will be handed in in seven days?"

"I know, I know!" Qi Shou and the three ran away, their mysterious appearance made Tang Jing a little worried: "Do you want to go and see?"

Qiqige quickly stopped.

She said with a smile: "We also need to give the children some space. Besides, it will only take a few days, and we will find out next time."

Another seven days will be the second round of nature classes.

The first thing Qiqige does in class is to collect homework: the tadpoles of Duanmin and Zarutgege are still trying to grow up, and the two children are impatient, and they can’t see anything except the black spots that are getting bigger and bigger out.

Qiqige reluctantly gave it a pass.

Niu Guluge's eggs are painted so lifelike, it's because she read the emperor's extremely detailed observation diary last year, Qiqige just praised it with a flat expression, and then turned her attention to the plant group.

What Gong Cui served was actually a bowl of stir-fried bean sprouts.

Her cheeks were flushed: "Mother of the Queen, the three of you and I just harvested a pile of bean sprouts in seven days. Heshe Ligege suggested to make it for you to taste! It's just that we don't know how to cook. Finally, finally, please invite the imperial dining room The cook helped me."

Hesheli squatted and saluted.

She had a slight smile on her face: "The princess washed and prepared the ingredients herself, and only asked the cook to help at the end."

Qiqige smiled and nodded, her eyes slightly surprised.

She took the chopsticks from the people around her, picked up a chopstick of bean sprouts, and put them into her mouth to savor.The bean sprouts are crunchy, with a little bit of spiciness, without the slightest beany smell - of course, this is due to the cook's cooking skills.

The focus is still on the ingredients themselves.

Qiqige picked up the bean sprouts and inspected them carefully. The roots of the bean sprouts were thick and thick, and it was rare to see thin ones, which showed the quality of the cultivation.

A satisfied smile appeared on her face.

Qiqige looked at the diary again, the handwriting was neat and serious, and the paintings were exquisite. Not only did the three of them observe the planting of bean sprouts and jasmine flowers at the same time, they recorded every step in detail, and at the same time they could see the relationship between each other. collaboration between.

It is hard to imagine that the children who turned in their homework were only about ten years old.

For such three answer sheets, Qiqige naturally gave a high score evaluation, directly giving three full marks.

Duan Min and the others were a little annoyed, but also a little unconvinced.

But when they saw the diary of Gongxi and the other three, they were silent for a moment and then blushed.

They seem to be trying a little harder.

After reading the homework of the six, Qiqige also looked at the three of Qishou curiously.

Qi Shou, Long Xi and Yong Gan held their heads high.

The confident appearance made Qiqige a little curious, she spread her hands: "Come on, let Queen Mother read your diary."

Qi Shou handed in a large book.

He was triumphant: "I can say that the observation diary of the three sons is definitely the best!"

This sentence offended six people.

Even if they agreed to lose to Gongxi and the others, Duan Min did not believe that they would lose to Qishou and the others.

Gong Yu didn't believe it even more.

The six of them simply came together and stared at the diary in Qiqige's hand.

Qiqige turned to the first page.

Everyone's expressions were stunned at the same time, and their thinking stopped for a moment.
