Fundamentals of Catching Immortals

Chapter 280 Bone Painted Skin (28)
"Brother, what do you buy?" The little boy saw A Xu at a glance, and asked: "The sesame candy that just came, and it came after the next year, can you give me a couple of taels for the kids at home?"

Axu was still dressed as a young man, he didn't look very old, so now he was staring at all kinds of candies excitedly, and no one around felt that there was anything wrong.The sugar shop in the capital is indeed much larger than the pastry shop in Shilipu, and there are many kinds of candies.

The red ones and the green ones have different shapes. A Xu looked at them with wonder and wondered how they were all made.

"Here are two catties of icing sugar, I will use it for the Lantern Festival at home." A Xu said.

"Okay, wait a moment!" The boy turned around neatly, raised his hand to greet the guy who weighed the sugar in the cupboard, and then bowed to ask Ah Xu to go in and get the sugar.Squeezing through the crowd, Axu got to the outside of the high cabinet.

Icing sugar is not cheap, A Xu counted out the silver and exchanged it for sugar, but he was not in a hurry to leave, staring at the various candies, feeling a little hesitant in his heart.

These icings were bought for Miss He, and she will give the money back later, but...do you really not want to buy any other candies?

Well, Ah He really likes sweets.

When she was at Ten Mile Shop, she thought Ah He was a rich man, and bought piles of pine nut candies in one go, but he ate most of them in one night.Those pine nut candies in his mustard seeds were spilled all at once when he was taken away by the blind bear...

A Xu bit his lower lip, and counted and counted the fifty copper coins that he had left to buy a lantern for Master, and finally sighed, muttering: "Master, I just saw it, I don't look like a bastard." Lanterns... If I buy lanterns of other styles, they are all over the street, how can you know that I gave them to you. The friendship between our master and apprentice is higher than the mountain and deeper than the sea, and it is not something that can be written by a small lantern. It’s over. You see, if it’s not like this, I’ll buy some candy for fifty copper coins and go back to coax Ah He. Your share... When I’m burned to death by myself and I’m looking for you next time, let’s have a good time Nagging, okay?"

She persuaded herself like this, and gradually persuaded herself.Although her mind is full of that old bastard stomping her feet and blowing her beard and scolding her for being unfilial, she still bravely pointed at the pile of sweets on the top of the cabinet: "Well, the new sesame candies, right? Weigh in half!"

Half a tael of sesame candy is exactly fifty copper coins.Such a pile of tinkling copper plates was finally exchanged for such a small paper bag of candy.Axu felt pained and happy at the same time.She stuffed the bag of candy into her sleeve, and happily returned to He's house with the frosting.

Miss He was waiting for the sugar to boil the red beans. A small pot of red beans had been boiled until they were pulpy, and was waiting to be mixed with sugar to make bean paste. As soon as Ah Xu came, she took most of the icing sugar and poured it into the pot.

"Wait, the bean paste will be cooked in a while, I'll let you taste a spoon first." Miss He winked at A Xu, but she didn't want to make the youngest member of the He family under the tree yell.

"Is he your younger brother or am I your younger brother! You are too biased!"

"Shut your mouth! Memorize your book!"

"If I shut up, how can I recite the book!"

The siblings of the He family started arguing again, and Axu rubbed his hands and went back into the room.

He Shishi was flipping through the idle books he had borrowed from the boss of the He family, when he heard a knock at the door, he raised his head and looked over.

A Xu bit his lower lip, and smiled at He Shishi embarrassedly, just as he was about to take out the sesame candy from his sleeve, he saw a small lantern on the table.

It was a small, emerald green lamp.
