Chapter 278

The closer to the end of the year, the happier the children at home were.

Although the Blue Tears were gone and the children were disappointed for a while, they were even happier when they heard Ye Yaodong was going to take them to the market.

But Lin Xiuqing's interest was not high, "You guys go, I'll watch the house at home, you pay attention, watch the children well, don't lose the children, there are many kidnappers during the New Year."

"Go together, winter clothes are thick, cotton-padded jackets are loose, you can't see."

"I'm afraid of the crowd..."

"Not necessarily, just a little bit big, and not seven or eight months, we'll come back after strolling for a while."

"Dad, you promised to take us to see a movie!"

Ye Yaodong nodded, smiled and said: "Right, our family still has to go see a movie together. Go together, it's rare that there are continuous happy events this year, we can have a lively and prosperous New Year."

Saying this, Lin Xiuqing was also very moved, hesitated for a moment, and nodded, she would pay attention to herself when the time came, and protect her belly more, anyway it wasn't the first time she was pregnant, and the months weren't big, so it was still safe, women in the village still carried hoes to the ground at seven or eight months.

"Great, we are going to the market~ we are going to the market~" Ye Chenghu ran to the door excitedly and shouted, he wanted to tell his older brothers and sisters.

Undoubtedly, he harvested another wave of envious eyes.

They also wanted to go, but didn't dare to say, afraid of being scolded!

Blame their mother for not listening to Third Uncle, now they have to vent their anger on them, they are too hard as children!

Don't know if their mother will give pocket money for the New Year this year, they don't dare to think about New Year's money, anyway it's confiscated every year, but after confiscation, she will give one or two cents of pocket money, this year it's estimated to be hanging...

Thinking about it, Ye Chenghai's face collapsed!

When he saw Ye Yaodong's family of four walking out, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"Third Uncle?"

Ye Yaodong stopped, "What for? If you want to go to the market, let your father and mother take you, there are too many people, I can't watch."

"No... it's..." He ran up and pulled Ye Yaodong to the corner to whisper.

"Third Uncle, can I discuss something with you?"

"What?"

"You tell Third Aunt, when she gives New Year's money the day after tomorrow, can she only give half? And the remaining half, you give it secretly?"

"Ah?" Ye Yaodong was a bit confused, unable to understand his train of thought.

"My mother will definitely confiscate the New Year's money, she lost a lot of money, she's in a bad mood and definitely won't give us pocket money, you give it separately like this, I won't be afraid." He said with a flattering smile.

Ye Yaodong flicked his forehead, "Slippery, talk about it the day after tomorrow!"

"Hehe, then I'll take it as you agreed."

Ye Yaodong laughed and didn't care about him, continuing to take the big and two small ones out, although the big bar in front of the bicycle could sit one, he was afraid it would be crowded if two sat in the back.

Not to mention that it was inconvenient to stroll around pushing the bicycle, he still had to look after the big and two small ones, it was inconvenient, and the bicycle was easy to be stolen if parked on the side of the road.

It was more convenient to take the bus, take the bus back, he could wait for all kinds of passing cars to town at the village entrance.

Quite a few people in the village went to the market these past few days, some were willing to take the bus and wait on the side of the road, some walked to town in groups.

Don't know if it was because it was near the end of the year, there were more passing cars, they walked to the village entrance and didn't wait long before a small bus from the county to the town came, and the family of four happily lined up and got on the bus.

Along the way, the two children chattered without stopping, and even excitedly communicated with children from the same village on the bus.

"My dad said he would take us to the cinema to see a movie after strolling, heard it's different from the one shown in the village..."

"Really? Your dad is so good..."

"Think so too, I'll tell you after I finish watching..."

"Great great... tell us what the cinema looks like after you finish watching..."

Ye Yaodong rubbed his forehead, children are all like this, right? Adults love to show off, not to mention children, shouldn't be a problem, right?

Under the expectation of the two children, they got off the bus directly on the street, not sitting into the station. Near the end of the year, the town was also crowded, cars couldn't pass well, moving like a turtle.

Ye Yaodong held one and pulled one, and let Lin Xiuqing hold his sleeve so as not to get lost, they followed the crowd and moved forward slowly.

On both sides of the street were baskets selling vegetables, selling fish, or scattered selling heavenly gold ingots, window flowers, couplets, and various foods, snacks.

He strolled all the way, the children felt their eyes couldn't see enough, "Dad, Mom, the town is so lively today."

"Don't squeeze around, it's easy to get squeezed away, if you get lost, we have nowhere to find, and then get kidnapped and have your hands and feet cut off to beg on the street."

"Ah!" The two children were scared and pulled tighter, Ye Chenghai didn't dare to pull him and rush forward.

But hearing the hawking, he couldn't help it, "Mom, I want to eat!"

"Walk past first..." It was rare for the whole family to come to the market, Lin Xiuqing would still satisfy the children's requests.

They walked along the crowd to the front of the seller, an old grandfather, a three-wheeled bicycle, a simple sugar-making machine, and quite a few adults and children surrounded the small stall.

【Speaking of which, the best book-chasing app for reading and listening to books at present, the source-switching app, install the latest version of. huanyuanapp.】

The old grandfather held a wooden stick in one hand, scooped sugar with the other and put it into the round hole in the middle of the machine, letting it rotate at high speed, and then white fine silk like spider silk instantly condensed in the sugar-making machine, the old grandfather stirred with a wooden stick, letting the white fine silk wrap around the wooden stick.

Before long, the white fine silk became more and more, and rolled bigger and bigger, the grandfather took another stick to take over, continued to roll the fine silk, and handed the one in his hand to the child beside him.

One hand gave money, one hand took the sugar, the child happily took it, and left with the adult.

Under the longing eyes of the two children, it was their turn, each took a super big one and licked it directly.

"So delicious, so sweet~"

"Hmm, so sweet!"

The two children had satisfied smiles, looking at the couple with full joy.

Ye Yaodong happened to see a photo studio on the side of the road, his heart moved, "Aqing, let's go to the photo studio and take a family portrait? Our family of four hasn't taken a photo together yet."

Ye Chenghai jumped up excitedly, "Ah ah ah... great great, we are taking photos, I am taking photos."

Lin Xiuqing smiled and nodded, "Great!"

Their family really hadn't taken photos, it was time to take one for commemoration.

Didn't expect the photo studio's business to be very good, coming in also had to queue, everyone should be wanting to take advantage of the good spirit during the New Year and the loose hands, take a family portrait for commemoration.

Before long it was their turn, after they sat properly and took one, Ye Yaodong called the photographer to take another one, more natural.

The two children stood beside them, each licking one, the couple looked at the two children with full smiles, the picture was particularly loving, full of happiness, which could be felt directly from the camera.

As soon as it was taken, Ye Chenghai ran to the photographer excitedly, "Let me see, let me see..."

"You can't see clearly, have to wait for the photo to be washed out."

"Then when will it be washed out?"

"At the fastest one week, you pay the money, come back to get it after a week, this is because there are many people taking photos during the New Year, the film is used fast, otherwise it usually takes half a month to get it."

Ye Yaodong nodded, normal, the technology is not good now, it's considered fast to get it in a week.

Being able to take photos is already an unexpected joy, although it can't be seen immediately, the two children are already incomparably satisfied.

Ye Yaodong pondered when to take Grandma and his father and mother to take a few, leave a commemoration.

Walking out of the photo studio, didn't walk a few steps, and saw the sugar figure seller, the two couldn't walk again.

Only saw the small stall on the side of the road inserted with all kinds of sugar figures, there were little chickens, also little monkeys, and even inserted with phoenixes...

This is a sugar figure drawing stall, beside the stone slab for drawing sugar figures on the small stall, there is also a round plate with flowers, birds, beasts, and insects drawn.

After paying the money, you can turn the pointer on the plate, and whatever it points to, you make it, and the children around are attracted and begging the adults.

Ye Chenghai and Ye Chengyang hadn't finished eating the ones in their hands, and they pulled their sleeves, looking at their parents.

"Dad, there are sugar figures..."

Ye Chenghai naturally knew his dad was easier to talk to than his mom!

Just two cents, Ye Yaodong had nothing to disagree with, since they were out, then the whole family should have a good time.

After he took out the money, he let the two children turn the pointer on the plate, Ye Chenghai spat twice into his palm under the envy of the children around, and then rubbed his hands.

"Who did you learn from? Actually spat into your palm, what physical work do you think you are doing?"

Ye Yaodong looked at the eldest son's move speechlessly, don't know who he learned from, children's imitation ability is really too strong.

"Haha, Dad don't be noisy, I want to turn a phoenix! Phoenix... phoenix..."

He swung the pointer, the pointer rotated rapidly, and when it finally operated slowly, he even puffed up his cheeks to blow, wanting to blow the phoenix that the pointer was pointing to, but it stopped at the tiger's position.

"Ah haha, tiger is also okay, I also like tigers!"

"It's Yangyang's turn, try to learn your brother's action." Lin Xiuqing smiled and taught him gently in his ear.

But Ye Chengyang didn't know much, his fingers hooked, and the pointer didn't turn enough for a circle before stopping.

Ye Chenghai said with disdain: "You idiot, if I knew, I would have helped you turn it."

"It's okay, monkey is also very good, it just happens that he belongs to the monkey!"

Ye Chengyang nodded happily, "Monkey, I am a monkey!"

The old master who drew sugar figures started drawing after they finished turning.

Drawing sugar figures is drawing with sugar syrup on a stone slab, the stone slab mostly uses smooth and cold marble, and a layer of anti-stick oil is applied on it when in use.

The old master scooped up the boiled sugar syrup with a small spoon, and poured out the lines smoothly on the stone slab, after thousands of times of tempering, their craftsmanship is very experienced, done in one go, without pause.

And the sugar syrup cooled quickly on the stone slab, so it had to be done in one go.

The production process of sugar figures is very wonderful, after a spoon of sugar syrup was used up, the big tiger outlined by lines was also formed vividly.

The old master shoveled up the sugar painting with a small shovel, stuck it on a bamboo stick, and handed it to Ye Chenghai.

Ye Chenghai took it excitedly, "My tiger... my tiger... haha..."

After drawing Ye Chenghai's tiger, he followed up to draw Ye Chengyang's monkey, the monkey was simpler, before long, under the old master's skilled craftsmanship, it also condensed and formed.

The children watching around also looked in amazement, which child could resist the charm of sugar figures, one after another begging the parents behind them, some parents who loved their children could only follow to pay money.
