Chapter 30 Sugar Man
After leaving the palace city surrounded by vermilion lacquered walls, the surrounding streets became much more noisy.

The capital is still immersed in the New Year's atmosphere at this time. Although the Lantern Festival has just passed, the streets and alleys are still full of traffickers and pawns.

Shouting and selling the goods in front of his stall, he looked like he was thriving.

Tong Jia Xili and Taoyao sat in the carriage together, while Shun Anyan helped Tong Jia Xili drive the horse.

"I'm finally going back home, and I don't know how Caiwei is doing."

Taoyao doesn't have much attachment to the majestic Forbidden City, and what she always thinks about is her good sister Caiwei who grew up with her since she was a child.

Caiwei is another personal servant girl next to Tong Jia Xili, and she did not follow her into the palace this time.

"Caiwei doesn't have you as a torturer, I'm afraid life will be much more chic and joyful." Tong Jia Xili chuckled, and said: "It's really hard for you, these days in the palace are well-behaved."

Tao Yao let out a long sigh, as if holding it in for a long time.

"Isn't it? There are strict rules in the palace, and the slaves are afraid that they will make mistakes and cause trouble for Ge Ge."

"Yes." Tong Jia Xili suddenly felt more emotional, and couldn't help thinking of Yinzhen.

The intrigues in the palace are treacherous.In the future, Yinzhen will not be able to escape such a fate.

I don't know what his future will be like?

"The sugar seller—"

"Freshly baked sugar man—"

When Tong Jia Xili fell into deep thought, the shouting voice of an old man outside the carriage had already been heard.

Tao Yao's eyes lit up immediately, she opened the curtain, pointed to the sugar man's stall outside and said, "Look, Ge Ge, there are sugar men."

Things like candy were actually rare in ancient times.

Tong Jia Xili used to be young, but she loved these sweet things very much.

After Tong Jia Xili, who was contemplating, was pulled by Taoyao, her thoughts flew back to her eyes in an instant.

Not far away, an old man was sitting on a low stool, and there were rows of exquisite sugar figures in front of him, each of them lifelike.

There are running horses, naive puppies, and cute rabbits.

What's more, there are sugar figures blown out one by one.

After the sugar figurines are painted, they look like miniature people, and even the five senses have their own charms.

"Brother. Is there a place to park the carriage up ahead? I want to go down and buy sugar figurines."

Tong Jia Xili leaned forward and opened the curtain of the car, and said to Shun Anyan who was driving the horse.

"It's time to arrive at Tong's Mansion." Shun Anyan said, "I'll hand over the carriage to the servant in the mansion later, and go out shopping with you, okay?"

"Yeah, good." Tong Jia Xili happily agreed, with a little expectation in her heart.

The New Year's candy paintings, candy paper, and sugar figurines are all things she has always liked.

Although everything in the palace is resplendent and magnificent.However, it lacks the simple, pure and rustic feeling of the folk.

Among the shops in the capital, the places are already overcrowded at this time.

Tong Jia Xili followed her memory and brought Shun Anyan to the sugar man's shop, and stopped there.

"Little girl, which sugar figurine do you like?"

Grandpa's hair is gray and his face is full of wrinkles.But it looks like she is very kind and amiable, with curved eyebrows and eyes.

"Um…"

Tong Jia Xili looked at it carefully, and stopped in front of a little sugar figure in a red mandarin jacket.

This little sugar figure has exquisite facial features, and it can be seen that the bridge of the nose is a bit high.A pair of eyes, also very dark and deep.

suddenly looked at...

Tong Jia Xili actually felt that this little sugar man looked seventy to eighty percent similar to Yinzhen.

The frantic beating in his heart made Tong Jia Xili's mind a little unconscious.He directly reached out his hand and took down the sugar figurine, and said, "I want this."

Shun Anyan didn't notice the abnormality in Tong Jiaxili's expression, so she paid the money very readily, and took Tong Jiaxili to continue shopping.

The sugar figurine was wrapped in sugar paper, and Tong Jia Xili carefully held it in his hand.

"Hey, sister, don't you want to eat?" Shun Anyan felt a little strange seeing Tong Jia Xili's cautious appearance.

In the past, Tong Jia Xili took the sugar figurines, but they ate them in a hurry.

"what?"

Tong Jia Xili turned her head, but she seemed to be preoccupied, and said: "Well... I'll eat later. There are too many people on this street."

"That's it." Shun Anyan nodded, naturally not thinking too much.

Tong Jia Xili breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly glanced at the sugar figurine in her hand with downcast eyes.

As if, this is some kind of rare treasure, which makes her feel very precious.

Wandering all the way back to the mansion.I don't know if it's because the sugar figurine is afraid of going wrong, but Tong Jia Xili doesn't have much interest in shopping.

After buying some random things, he went all the way back to Tong Mansion.

In front of the gate of Tong's mansion, two majestic stone lions show the glory of Tong Jia's family.

Even the snow in front of the door seems to be trampled and disappeared by people coming and going.

Tong Jia Xili returned to her yard, and then carefully took out the sugar figurine.

Taking good care of it all the way, the sugar figurine has maintained its original appearance.

His eyebrows and eyes are always somewhat similar to Yinzhen.When seeing this little sugar figure, it seems that Yinzhen is still by his side.

"Girl, why are you in a daze?"

Tao Yao felt that Tong Jia Xi Li was a bit strange, so she also came over.

"Huh?" Tao Yao also stared at the sugar man for a while, then scratched her head and said doubtfully, "Why do you think this sugar man looks familiar?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Tong Jia Xili blushed, not wanting to be seen, so she simply said with a straight face: "Go out and buy some candy wrappers for me."

Sugar people, although she said she couldn't do it.

But... candy she still will.He practiced a good skill before time travelling, but now he has a chance to display it.

Yinzhen should also like these things, right?

"what?"

Tao Yao didn't react, she didn't understand that this "order" came so suddenly.

"What are you talking about!" Tong Jia Xili pouted, and said, "Go quickly, don't hang around in front of my eyes!"

Tao Yao had no choice but to leave with a wry smile.

The door, when Taoyao was about to go out, was about to be slowly closed by Taoyao.

But at this time, Taoyao seemed to have remembered something, and suddenly realized that she opened her eyes wide and looked at Tong Jia Xili.

"Gege, I remembered."

"This sugar man really looks like a person!"

"This person... seems to be the fourth elder brother. This sugar man looks like the fourth elder brother, doesn't he?"

PS:

Xi Li: You are the only smart one, aren't you?
Tao Yao:? ?Am I wrong?
