Chapter 319 Taking off
Because everyone was going to the farm, the old man exempted himself from paying respects to other people in the mansion.
After breakfast, everyone took a carriage and drove towards Zhuangzi.
The people from each family who were left behind were all confused. Wasn't today the prince's birthday? Why were they all going out? Aren't they going to celebrate at home?
Why not take them with you?
After arriving at the farm, all the servants knelt down at the gate and were then waved away by Lin Xiaomi.
When you walk into Zhuangzi's house, you will see pots of brightly blooming flowers all around the yard.
"Grandpa, Dad, Mom, sit inside."
In the main room, the servant served tea and left.
Before they even started chatting, the kids couldn't wait to take out the birthday gifts they had prepared. After they gave them away, they could see the gift prepared by the eldest sister-in-law!
"Happy birthday, bro."
"Thank you!"
"Ran'er, this is the birthday gift your father and I prepared."
Sun also took out the two black boxes, one for her son and one for the marquis, and had them handed to her by the nanny at the back.
"Thank you, Dad!"
The old marquis signaled his old servant to hand over a gift as well.
Then, everyone looked at Lin Xiaomi.
Are things moving so fast? Don't you want to have a cup of tea and take a break?
So soon, are you planning to receive the gifts, have a meal, and then go back home right away?
Why do they all seem so anxious?
"Sister-in-law, where is your gift?"
Xiao Ran also looked at him, eyes full of anticipation.
Forehead!
"My gift is quite big, please move aside."
"Let's go then."
The old man was the first to step out of the house.
Sun had an expression that said, "I see." She came to the manor every day because her things were too big to fit in the mansion.
The venue is located in the horse farm and is spacious enough.
The head of the village tied all the horses into the stable yesterday and cleaned the stable thoroughly.
Everyone saw a strange-looking object standing on the horse field.
The top of the head is a huge ball made of silk, and underneath the ball there is something unknown.
There is a huge basket underneath, and the two are connected together.
It looks a bit weird, well, it's really ugly.
Sun was originally full of expectations, but Xiao Ran thought that no matter what, his wife's intentions were there, and he had to take this thing back to the Marquis' Mansion and keep it.
"Xiaomi, this..."
Xiao Zhen looked at it and felt that there was something hidden inside. Could this thing have some mechanism? Was there something else inside?
"Sister-in-law, what is this?"
The boys were a little disappointed. It was big, just as their mother said. But other than being big, it didn't seem to have any other advantages.
“Hot air balloon!”
hot air balloon?
What are balloons and why are they hot?
Lin Xiaomi looked at Xiao Ran with a proud smile. After all, this thing was developed by her.
"My Lord, come and try it. I'll accompany you and let you feel the feeling of flying in the sky."
What did his wife say, flying in the sky?
Are they flying in the sky together?
They followed Lin Xiaomi woodenly and boarded the hot air balloon. The people beside them were already prepared, helping them tie the ropes and light the charcoal fire.
"Xiaomi, this..."
Can fly?
"It will be a while. Don't be afraid. I've tried it many times and it's very safe." Even if they fell, they had ropes tied around their bodies, so they were not afraid.
The others looked at them, confused. They wondered what the little girl (sister-in-law) had just said. She wanted to take Ran'er (eldest brother) flying. They were sure she was not talking in her sleep.
Xiao Zhen and the old man were even more unconvinced. They really didn't believe that Xiao Ran could fly with them. They had lived for so many years and had seen and heard of everything. People flying in the sky was just a lie in the storybook.
The charcoal burned, the balloon heated up, and the basket where the two people were standing slowly lifted off the ground and rose up...
Xiao Yi opened his mouth slightly, but the word "wow" could not come out for a long time.
The others were also stunned.
Seeing the two of them rising higher and higher...
Sun covered her chest with her hands. She was very nervous because her son and daughter-in-law were standing so high up. What if this thing fell down?
After a moment of daze, Xiao Ran watched himself getting farther and farther away from the ground, the breeze blowing on his face, and he flew into the air. He looked at his family below, and then at his wife beside him, his eyes burning.
His birthday gift was so creative. Even His Majesty within the palace walls had never flown in the air, right?
My wife really gave him a big surprise.
"How did you come up with that?"
"Sky lanterns can go up to the sky, so I wonder if people can go up there to have a look? My Lord, do you like this gift? It's very interesting, isn't it?"
"I like it." Xiao Ran nodded affirmatively. He was even a little impatient and thought about his birthday next year.
Holding Lin Xiaomi's hand, he felt the hot air balloon was still moving slowly, and his heart was surging. To be honest, at this moment, he felt like he was the king of the world.
Looking down from the sky, the whole village is in full view, with well-arranged houses, mountains in the distance, and endless fields...
