060 The old man of the ancient sugar maker

Coincidentally, the old man who made candy man noticed Ouyang Xinyu at the temple fair. In fact, if Mr. Shangguan did not allow the housekeeper to invite him to the mansion, he would also come to him. In this way, what kind of relationship does this old man who made candy man have with Ouyang Xinyu? Could it be that he has seen that Ouyang Xinyu is not from this dynasty? Or, just by Ouyang Xinyu calling him "old man" he would hold a grudge?

The temple fair is still going on, and many children from poor families are still shuttled back and forth in various stalls of the temple fair, playing, and poets are drinking and talking, singing to the moon, and chanting poems and music. The maids and friends who scattered around have fun and returned to the pavilion. Mr. Shangguan and Mrs. Shangguan are about to get up and prepare to go home.

The butler Shangguan called in front of him and whispered to him. The butler kept nodding his head and then walked towards the pavilion. On this side, after the master ordered the butler, he summoned his servants to walk towards the Shangguan Mansion in a mighty manner.

"Old sir, please stay! My Master Shangguan invites him to sit in the mansion tomorrow. I wonder if he is willing?" The old man who was holding the candy man saw Mr. Shangguan and Ouyang Xinyu and a team of troops leaving from a distance, he hurriedly put away his candy man stall and prepared to follow them. However, before he had time to pack up, the housekeeper of the Shangguan Mansion came to him automatically.

"I don't know the old man, I don't know the master of the mansion. What's the matter with asking the old man to come to the mansion?" He was also preparing to secretly follow the people of Shangguan's mansion to find out the location of Shangguan's mansion. Unexpectedly, the master of Shangguan's mansion actually sent someone to invite him to the mansion to sit. Isn't this a great opportunity? But when the opportunity is right, the old man still asked calmly.

"The old man's skill in making candy is unique in our Furong Town. Shangguan Wan'er, the daughter of Shangguan Mansion, praised the old man's skills in front of the master! Therefore, our master wants to invite the old man to sit in the mansion tomorrow to perform his skills for our lady!" He is worthy of being the housekeeper of Shangguan Mansion, and his words are naturally one by one. Not only does his tone of speaking seem humble and reasonable, but his words also make people feel very comfortable with praise.

"Oh, so that's it! Since the daughter-in-law in the mansion admires the skills of the old man so much, how can he refuse?" The old man who was holding the candy man said thoughtfully, holding his beard.

"Who do you mean to promise our master's invitation tomorrow?"

"That's natural. If the housekeeper goes back and tells the master, he will definitely go to the mansion on time tomorrow to perform his skills for your daughter-in-law in Shangguan's house!"

"Okay, then I'll have a hard time tomorrow!"

"You're welcome, I have to thank Mr. Shangguan and the lady for their appreciation!"

"I thank my master for my first time. I will say goodbye to you first!" After making polite decisions, the housekeeper bowed to the old man who was holding the sugar man with both hands, and then turned around and left in a hurry.

"This housekeeper has good abilities, Mr. Shangguan is looking for the right person!" The old man who was holding the candy man looked at the back of the housekeeper Shangguan's house, and whispered to himself with his beard.

"Miss, get up quickly. The old man who is holding the candy man has come to the mansion and is waiting in the front yard. The old man's candy is also carried on the mansion. He is about to start holding the candy man. The master and his wife ask you to come over and watch the old man's skills quickly!" Early the next morning, Ouyang Xinyu had not woken up in her sleep. Xiaoyue girl patted her door and shouted loudly.

"Xiao Cui, who is screaming outside? I haven't slept enough yet, it's so noisy!" Ouyang Xinyu was awakened by Xiaoyue's voice, but she was still not awake, and she had never opened her eyes and asked Xiao Cui with her eyes closed.

"Miss, it's Xiaoyue girl! Xiaoyue girl said that the old gentleman who was the candy man came to the mansion at the temple fair last night and was preparing to start performing the candy man's work in the front yard! Xiaoyue also said that the master and his wife had already got up early and asked the lady to go to the front yard to watch the skills quickly!" Xiaocui is worthy of being a maid. Although she is also sleepy, she can always keep the police and awake. She conveyed Xiaoyue's words to Ouyang Xinyu's ears without saying a word.

"The old man who is the candy man is here? Why didn't you say it earlier? Xiao Cui, hurry up and help me get my clothes and dress up for me. I'm going to see the candy man!" Hearing that the old man who is the candy man came to the mansion, Ouyang Xinyu rolled down from the bed and rolled to the ground with cleverness.

"Miss, I'm just a candy guy, and I'm also a gray-haired old gentleman. Why are you so excited?" Seeing Ouyang Xinyu accidentally rolling off the bed, Xiao Cui hurried over and helped her up and took the opportunity to joke.

"Haha, I thought I was sleeping in the bed. I didn't know when I rolled to the edge of the bed. Why didn't I feel it?" Ouyang Xinyu grabbed Xiao Cui's arm, got up from the ground and smiled foolishly.

"That's right? Miss said a night of dreams last night, but Xiao Cui didn't understand a word after listening to it for a long time. Miss, do you remember what dreams you had last night?" Xiao Cui said in a mess while helping Ouyang Xinyu wear clothes.

"Hehe, did you hear me talking in my dream? I dreamed last night that I became Sun Wukong, followed Tang Sanzang, Zhu Bajie, Sha Seng, and the White Dragon Horse to go to the West to obtain the scriptures!" Ouyang Xinyu remembered the dream she had last night and laughed foolishly again.

"Miss, why don't you dream of being the compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva who saved the world from suffering, but dreamed of being the Monkey King who made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace?" When Ouyang Xinyu said that she dreamed that she had become Sun Wukong, Xiao Cui couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"I think there are seventy-two changes in Sun Wukong. If I can really transform into his appearance, that's great! It's better than being like Zhu Bajie now, doing nothing all day long, with a big belly, only knowing how to eat, eat, and eat better!"

"Miss, you are very thin, how can you tell that you are fat?" Xiao Cui was working on a headdress for Ouyang Xinyu. When she heard Ouyang Xinyu say that she was fat, she looked up and down at Ouyang Xinyu seriously and said sincerely.

"I mean, if I continue like this, one day I will grow as fat as Zhu Bajie!" Ouyang Xinyu explained to Xiao Cui.

"Okay, Miss, you have all your headdresses worn, we can go to the front yard!" Xiao Cui put a bronze mirror in front of Ouyang Xinyu and asked her to see the headdress she made for her and was dissatisfied?
