He Hua Xiangrong held hands and ran out of the crowd. Gao Qiu looked at the sparsely standing master, stretched out his little hand and patted the adult in front of him on the thigh, shouting: "Hey hey hey! Let us have a way!"

"Ah? Oh oh!"

The man was stunned for a moment when he was called by Gaoqiu. When he looked back, he found that a child was standing behind him and quickly gave up the way.

"Thanks!"

He thanked casually, Gao Qiu pulled Hua Xiangrong into the crowd.

In the crowd, a large pot of boiled water was placed, and a middle-aged vendor stood beside him, shouting constantly.

Gao Qiu could see clearly that there was a jar beside the middle-aged man, with something like batter in the jar. The vendor held a colander in his hand and kept stirring. After stirring for about dozens of times, the vendor scooped a colander of flour and gently shook it above the boiling water. The batter leaked into the water pot along the hole, sinking to the bottom and floated up immediately. After rolling in the boiling water, the batter was cooked.

The vendor put down the colander in his hand, picked up the briquette placed beside him, took out the batter and passed it in the cold water on the side, controlled the water and put it in a bowl, put some vegetables next to it, and then sprinkled with marinade.

Seeing the vendor handing the unknown bowl of food to a child, Gao Qiu suddenly had a whim and said funny to Hua Xiangrong beside him: "Are they eating Lantern Festival?"

"Puff! Hahahaha!"

A few children who were having fun eating laughed out loud immediately after hearing Gao Qiu's words. Some even laughed out loud, and they vomited out a bunch of white and green things. The adults stood in the outer circle and did not hear Gao Qiu's words, so they did not react at all.

"Xiaoxiao! I'll laugh again and your front teeth will be stolen tonight!"

Facing a group of children aged 6, 7 or 8, reasoning is useless and threats are not feasible. Gao Qiu simply starts to scare them.

As soon as Gao Qiu said this, several children immediately covered their mouths. After all, at this age, almost all of them started changing their teeth. Even if they hadn't started changing their teeth, they would naturally feel a little worried and afraid when they saw that their companions around them had fewer teeth.

"That's not Lantern Festival, that's tadpole powder! Generally speaking, only the Jiangnan area can eat Lantern Festival. There are not many people selling Lantern Festival here."

Hua Xiangrong is still young, but during the time she followed Mrs. Su, there were all delicious and fun. Who would make people not short of money?

After listening to Hua Xiangrong's explanation, Gao Qiu carefully observed this "tadpole pink".

Since the holes in the colander are round, all the batter leaking from these holes is also round. In addition, the batter is a bit long, so there is inevitably a brushed line at the back of the batter, and there is a "small tail" behind each ball of batter. It looks very similar to the tadpole, but the colors of the two are different.

"That... do you want to eat? I have some money here..."

Unlike ordinary children, Hua Xiangrong is really rich when she is only a dozen people, but she can also be "presentful" among her peers.

Before he could have time to be moved by Hua Xiangrong's behavior, Gao Qiu had already raised his hand to cover his mouth. If there weren't too many people around him, Gao Qiu would have wanted to vomit!

I don’t know which article I learned that Gao Qiu once wrote about eating tadpoles. When he learned that article, he felt very nauseous. Later, when he grew up and went to college, he really saw someone eating tadpoles when he went out for a trip. Since then, Gao Qiu felt uncomfortable when he saw tadpoles. Now, Gao Qiu really can’t accept eating such tadpoles.

"What's wrong with you?"

Seeing that Gao Qiu's face was wrong, Hua Xiangrong immediately became nervous, afraid that she would be unhappy with Gao Qiu.

"No...it's okay..."

Gao Qiu covered his mouth with one hand and pulled Hua Xiangrong with the other, squeezed out a road from the middle of the child and rushed out of the crowd.

When he came outside the crowd, Gao Qiu felt much more comfortable, at least he could breathe evenly. But Gao Qiu didn't know that all this was his illusion. He just felt stuffy in his chest because the water pot was hot, and the rising steam greatly affected Gao Qiu's spirit.

There were still various hawking sounds in his ears. Gao Qiu breathed a sigh of relief and grabbed Hua Xiangrong's little hand beside him, "Let's go! I heard that there are people selling candy piles over there, let's buy candy piles to eat!"

"Yeah! OK!"

Hua Xiangrong's little face became more and more rosy, and she didn't know what was thinking in her little head.

Of course, Gaoqiu is not changing the topic, but really hearing someone selling candy. With nostalgia for candy piles, Gaoqiu pulled Hua Xiangrong along the source of the sound.

"Sugar Duoer" is actually a dialect, which means piled up with candied sugar, but it actually refers to candied haws. Candied haws were quite common in the 1980s and 1990s and even in the early 21st century. No matter which season is spring, summer, autumn and winter, there are always many vendors riding bicycles to sell them alleys. Behind the bicycle are piles filled with candied haws.

Later, as he grew older, Gaoqiu could not see a vendor selling candied haws. Instead, there was a stall selling candied haws next to the stalls selling grilled sausages in major shopping malls. However, this candied haws are always a bit less than the candied haws in Gaoqiu's memory, so Gaoqiu has never bought it again.

Today I heard that someone sells "Sugar Duoer", so I naturally have to taste it.

When Gao Qiu pulled Hua Xiangrong and appeared again in front of a stall surrounded by children, he was stunned again. The one that appeared in front of Gao Qiu was not a candied haws at all, but a pasta fried in a oil pan. Although the appearance was very similar to the candied haws I had eaten, Gao Qiu believed in his eyes that there was no trace of red in the mountains here!

Needless to say, this time it was a high ball. People really sold "Candy Ball", but this "Candy Ball" is also called "Candy Ball" and "Oil Ball". It is a sweet snack that became popular during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and it is also the staple food for northerners during the Lantern Festival in this era.

"That...we want to eat it?"

Hua Xiangrong is also a child, and of course she wants to eat what she sees. She swallowed her saliva just now, and naturally she couldn't hold back at this time.

"Of course you have to eat!" For the sake of the 'man's face, Gao Qiu naturally would not refuse Hua Xiangrong's request. Of course, the biggest premise of the image of 'candy' can be accepted by Gao Qiu. After sorting out his clothes, Gao Qiu actually retracted his hand back into his sleeve, grabbed the copper coins that Su Guo hesitated for a long time before giving him, raised his head and looked at the vendor, "Hello, how much does this cost?"

"Oh! Which young master is this? Do you want to eat candy? It's easy to say, every penny is a bunch!"

The vendor did not see Gao Qiu's "master" but this did not prevent him from showing his kindness to Gao Qiu. After all, there is no need for him to be unable to get along with the troublesome children who patronize his stall.

"A penny a string? This...that...this...this one string!"

The copper plate in his hand was about to let Gaoqiu get out of water, but no matter how much he held it, it was only enough to buy a bunch of sugar. This bunch of sugar was naturally to give Hua Xiangrong a meal. Gaoqiu had the first idea of ​​accepting his fate at this moment.

"I have..."

Hua Xiangrong naturally knew that Gaoqiu didn’t cost much. After all, it was rare for children like her, so she wanted to pay for Gaoqiu.

However, Gao Qiu's self-esteem as a man could not accept Hua Xiangrong's kindness. He pulled her little hand and pulled her behind him, and then handed out the penny in his left hand, "Give it! Give me a string!"

"Oh! OK! Young Master, this is the string you want!" The vendor diligently found a large string and handed it to the high ball. Then, without waiting for the high ball to speak, he handed out a small string again, "Young Master, there is a string here, which I give you extra, you can take it!"

"Ah?! Thank you!"

He handed the candy bait to Hua Xiangrong's Gaoqiu, who didn't expect that there would be any unexpected surprises. After a moment of stunned silence, he quickly said thank you.

"Hey! Your 'thank you' is worth this string of candy! Get it!"

The vendor smiled and greeted other guests.

Gao Qiu turned around and left with Hua Xiangrong, but he didn't notice that there were two pairs of eyes beside him and looked at him with a look of something wrong. If Gao Qiu noticed it, he would find that in fact, the children around him had watched him perform under the platform just now.

I walked back happily with the flowers and I didn't expect that the "saccharide" tasted better than the "saccharide pile". Moreover, since it was pasta, it was not as good as the sourness of the mountains. It only had sweet taste from the inside out.

It was supposed to be happily walking back to Su Guo's side, but when he was about to return to the high platform, he suddenly heard a scream from behind him. After listening carefully, there were even words such as "the main offender" and "dodge".

Looking back, a young man riding a horse was rushing towards him. Behind him, there were more than a dozen people dressed in obviously yamen runners, and it was obvious that the government was catching human traffickers.

Gao Qiu hurriedly took Hua Xiangrong to the side, otherwise he would have no place to make any reason if he was hit. When Gao Qiu took Hua Xiangrong to the safe area, he found that there was a little girl in the middle of the road with candy batter.

Gao Qiu's mind heated up, let go of the hand holding Hua Xiangrong and ran out directly. A flying pounce was pushed aside, while Gao Qiu was kicked in the stomach by the horse that rushed straight towards him and kicked it out.

The Mercedes-Benz's horse was quite powerful. Gaoqiu had already fainted when he was still in the air. Before he fainted, Gaoqiu saw only two strings of candy balls flying in the air and thrust straight into the young man's face.
Chapter completed!
