Era: Craftsmen in the Siheyuan

Chapter 9 Feeding
After the exercise, it was already bright.

You can draw the blind box again today!

Xu Deyong had a thought in his mind.

"Snapped!"

A box of candy appeared in the blind box space. Inside was the kind of dark red, translucent bulk hard candy that is sold in stores.

This box weighs a pound, and contains about a hundred pills. It costs more than one yuan, or more than one cent per pill on average.

Sugar was a luxury item at this time, and ordinary white sugar cost [-] to [-] cents per pound. In a few years, not only would it cost money, but the price would also go up, making it even more rare.

When getting married, it would be quite honorable for the man to bring two or three kilograms of sugar as a betrothal gift!
The more famous candies of this era include halva candy from Beijing, fruit candies from Huacheng, the well-known Pagoda Candy and White Rabbit Milk Candy from Shanghai, etc.
At this time, White Rabbit toffee should still be called "ABC Mickey Mouse" toffee.

Next year, ABC Candy Factory will be completely nationalized and renamed Aimin Candy Factory, and an art design company will be asked to redesign the new packaging.

After the names "Three Happiness" and "Guangming" had little effect, it was not until the [-]th year of the lunar calendar that the image of the white rabbit and the blue and white candy wrapper began to enter thousands of households as gifts.

In difficult times, it is difficult to obtain milk, so it became popular because "7 white rabbit milk candies can make a cup of milk".

The price of more than five yuan per pound makes children from ordinary families sigh!
Xu Deyong took out one, removed the candy wrapper and put it in his mouth.

So sweet!
At this time, the door of Shazhu's house opened, and the girl He Yuyu came out wearing a blue cotton-padded jacket.

Seeing Xu Deyong, he naturally didn't look good and snorted coldly.

Who asked Xu Deyong to "cheat" his brother out of money?

Xu Deyong didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "It's starting to rain!"

"I want you to take care of it." He Yuyu muttered angrily.

Xu Deyong said: "Little girl, don't be so angry, otherwise you won't be pretty when you grow up."

He Yuyu said: "Then give us the money!"

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "It's not impossible to return the money to you..."

"Then give it to me!" He Yuyu walked over a few steps and held out his hands.

Xu Deyong took something out of his pocket, clenched his fist and placed it on He Yuyu's little hand.

As soon as he let go, two candies fell into the palm of He Yueyue's hand.

When He Yuyu saw it, he was immediately surprised and said: "Sugar!"

Then she lowered her face and said: "Don't buy me with candy, pay me back!"

Xu Deyong said leisurely: "You can pay me back. How many times has your brother hit me before? You have to let me hit you back. Let's count it as fifty times. It's ten cents at a time. After the beating, I'll give you the money."

He Yuyu was suddenly speechless and hesitantly said: "Fifty times is too many..."

"That's forty times. After all, I only got four yuan." Xu Deyong said with a smile.

"Rain, go home!"

At this time, He Yuzhu opened the door with a gloomy face and shouted.

He Yuyu held the hand holding the candy and glanced at Xu Deyong. Seeing that he had no intention of returning, he lowered his head and said, "I'm going to the toilet."

After that, he ran away and disappeared.

Xu Deyong said: "Silly Zhu, don't be so serious with girls, otherwise I will not be close to you when you grow up, and I won't even have to clean up the room for you when you grow up."

Silly Zhu's expression suddenly changed and he said: "You are not allowed to have any ideas about my sister!"

"Your sister?"

Xu Deyong said speechlessly: "How old is she? I am not that beastly. You are too small-minded. A man must be broad-minded."

"Not even when you grow up." Silly Zhu said.

Xu Deyong: "..."

Do you think I will become a leftover man like you?

Who do you look down on!
Xu Deyong beckoned: "Come on, come on, I think you are too busy thinking, come here and help."

He Yuzhu's face stiffened and the corners of his mouth twitched.

Xu Deyong said: "I don't have any luck, and I won't fight with you. I just help you and wrestle with me."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu said harshly: "Let's do it, I'm afraid you won't succeed!"

After that, he strode up to Xu Deyong.

The two stepped apart, their right feet touched each other, their right hands clenched together, and they began to wrestle. Whoever moved his foot would lose!

He Yuzhu exerted his strength with his arms, his face turned red and his neck became thick, but he could not shake Xu Deyong in the slightest.

Xu Deyong also has a good idea of ​​his own strength, almost "one point and five He Yuzhu"!
"Hey!"

Xu Deyong suddenly exerted his strength, and He Yuzhu couldn't help but sit on the ground.

"No, I'm going to make a fool of myself again today!" He Yuzhu felt cold.

Just as he was about to sit down on the ground, a sudden pull came from his arm and pulled him up again.

Xu Deyong let go of his hand and looked at him with a smile without saying anything.

He Yuzhu was so shocked that he murmured his lips but did not speak.

The cooked duck is left with a tough mouth!

At this moment, He Yuyu came back jumping up and down, with pupae in his mouth from time to time, and a bulge on the left and right sides of his face.

Seeing the two people's "at war with each other", He Yuyu immediately opened his arms and blocked the two people, saying vaguely: "No fighting!" Xu Deyong spread his hands and said: "There is no fight, I am exercising with your brother, if you don't believe me, ask you elder brother!"

He Yuyu turned to look at He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu licked his lips and said, "That's right, we didn't fight."

He Yuyu stared at Xu Deyong again and said: "Fighting is okay, but there is no chance of winning, otherwise my family will not have money to buy meat during the New Year!"

He Yuzhu: "..."

This means you are sure that you will lose!
Xu Deyong smiled and said: "You want to eat meat, wait, while my grandma is not here, I will give you a piece of oil residue."

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the house.

He Yuyu couldn't help but swallowed when he thought of the taste of oil residue...

"Uh……."

I almost swallowed the candy in my mouth.

She quickly pinched her neck and pinched it out again.

Licking the candy taste again, He Yuyu was full of joy. Fortunately, it came out, otherwise he would not be able to taste it!

"What did you eat in your mouth?" He Yuzhu asked with a frown.

"I haven't eaten anything!" He Yuyu said harshly.

He Yuzhu said solemnly: "When you go home, you are not allowed to eat the food he gave you."

He Yuyu thought to himself, I have already eaten it.

Her eyes flickered and she said, "You go back first, and I'll play some more."

Her intention was written on her face, "I want to eat the oil residue."

He Yuzhu was very angry. The girl was older. If she didn't go back to the house, why should she be kidnapped back?

After glaring at his sister, He Yuzhu angrily turned around and went back to the house. With a 'bang', the door closed loudly!
Xu Deyong came out slowly and said: "What is your brother so angry about? The door is almost broken."

"Who knows, he can fix it himself if it's broken." He Yuyu said, but his eyes were fixed on Xu Deyong's hand.

Xu Deyong didn't tease her, handed him a big piece of oil residue and said, "Num, here you go, eat it."

He Yuyu hesitated for a moment, but in the end his desire to eat won. He reached out to take it and said harshly: "You bought this with my family's money. What I eat is my family's, not yours."

After saying that, he turned around and ran into the house.

Xu Deyong shook his head and smiled, the little girl is quite interesting!
Inside the house, He Yuzhu snorted heavily when he saw his sister coming in with a piece of oil residue.

He Yuyu blinked, walked over and handed him a candy and said, "Num, here you go, eat it."

He Yuzhu glanced at it and said, "Where did it come from?"

"He gave it."

"He'll give it to you." He Yuzhu was a little angry and raised his voice.

He Yuyu tilted his head and said, "Okay, I'll give it back to him, and you buy it for me."

One sentence KO!

He Yuzhu was speechless immediately.

He was so angry that he grabbed the candy and stuffed it into his mouth. Only the sweetness could comfort his hurt heart!

While eating the candy, he felt that he was doing well again, and warned: "Eat, eat, don't get too close to that... guy, he is not a good person."

He Yuyu pursed his lips and said, "I think you are all pretty much the same."

He Yuzhu: "..."

"I'm still not your brother, show some respect to me, pack your things and go to school." He Yuzhu said pretending to be serious.

He Yuyu said: "Today is the weekend, I won't go to school, brother, you are stupid, no wonder others call you...!"

"Don't say it." He Yuzhu said with eyes wide open.

"If you don't say it, don't say it." He Yuyu muttered, "I'm hungry."

He Yuzhu: "..."

Since the "myth of invincibility" in the courtyard has been shattered, the family status has also declined visibly, which is unreasonable.

It’s all Xu Deyong’s fault!

……

Xu Nanshi returned with a smile on her face, apparently she had already inadvertently told her about brushing her teeth and applying clam oil!

In addition to buying tofu puffs, I also bought two focus rings, which shows that I am in a good mood.

The two are eating.

"Ah Choo..."

Xu Deyong suddenly sneezed.

Xu Nan touched his forehead with concern and said, "Why are you sneezing? You won't catch a cold."

Xu Deyong said: "It's okay. Your grandson is still strong. There must be someone messing with me behind my back."
