In the morning, the city was filled with mist from the river. Layer by layer, layer by layer, it reminded Liu Changan of the cotton harvest season after autumn. There were craftsmen who carried equipment to make quilts by bouncing cotton on their backs and came to the farmers' homes in the countryside. They bounced the cotton into fluffy wadding, and the softness of the quilt was very similar to the mist in front of them.
The cotton wadding on the bed, the mist on the city.
A quilt was waiting for the cold winter, waiting for the fog to disperse in the city, and welcoming the slanting morning sun. It didn't seem to be as tall as the first building of Baolong Center.
The high-rise buildings extended into the mist. There were no pedestrians around, reminding people of the empty scenes commonly seen in science fiction movies.
"Where are we going to find candy?" Zhou Dongdong held Liu Changan's finger, swaying and bouncing.
"We can ask the little fairy. The little fairy always pulls up her skirt and shakes it, and a lot of shiny candy falls down."
"Then what should we give her?" Zhou Dongdong was in a dilemma again. This was different from someone taking the initiative to give something to her. If she went to ask someone for something, she had to give something to them.
"Brother Changan has given a lot of things to their family before, so it's okay to ask them for some candy now."
"Ow …"
"Don't bark like a dog."
"Oh."
Liu Changan didn't call Zhu Juntang directly. Instead, he asked Zhongqing to see if he and Zhou Dongdong would go up to get it, or if she could take it down herself. It was all right.
Zhongqing suggested that he and Zhou Dongdong go up to get it, because it depended on what kind of candy the little girl liked.
"The Third Young Miss is asleep." Zhongqing saw Liu Changan with the little girl and unconsciously smiled.
For Zhongqing, she was also a little girl like this in the past. It was just that she didn't have a big brother who could hold her little finger and swing around with her.
"I know, so I didn't disturb her." Liu Changan liked to be kind to others, so when Zhu Juntang finally helped him last night, Liu Changan would consider her feelings and would not ignore it.
"We're in the sky again." Zhou Dongdong looked at the clouds outside the floor-to-ceiling glass wall.
The clouds outside the window were reflected on the floor, transforming and flowing. It did not feel like the space downstairs was in the same world.
"Fairy is sleeping. Otherwise, she would come and play with you." Zhong Qing put his hands on his abdomen and lowered his head to talk to Zhou Dongdong with a smile.
"Sister, you're also a fairy!" Zhou Dongdong leaned on Liu Changan's thigh, tilted her head to observe Zhongqing, and then said happily.
Zhongqing was not happy at all. She raised her hand to cover her mouth and laughed uncontrollably.
"Are you that happy? Are you a fan? "Liu Changan also decided to tease Zhongqing.
Zhongqing stopped laughing immediately and rolled her eyes at Liu Changan. Of course, she would put some powder on her face when she worked, but her makeup had always been flawless. How could she shake off any powder? Was she worthy of staying with Third Madam and the Third Young Miss?
A girl being praised as a fairy was a satisfaction and secret pleasure that a guy like Liu Changan could not understand. Zhongqing did not like Zhou Dongdong because of this. She brought Zhou Dongdong to Zhu Juntang's candy house.
That's right, Zhu Juntang had a room for storing candies, and it was named the Candy House. All of the candies were arranged in an exquisite and professional manner, as many candies required specific conditions such as temperature, humidity, vacuum, nitrogen, and so on to be stored.
"Don't get excited. Breathe properly. Don't pout your mouth anymore. Your eyes are going to fall out." Liu Changan patted Zhou Dongdong's back, stroked her chest, and rubbed her face to bring her back to reality.
"Can we exchange rice noodles in the future?" Zhou Dongdong whispered to Liu Changan.
"Can we?" Liu Changan looked at Zhongqing expectantly.
Zhongqing smiled and nodded. Although Liu Changan could make people feel suffocated most of the time, when he was with Zhou Dongdong, not only was Zhou Dongdong cute, but he was also much cuter.
Liu Changan and Zhou Dongdong successfully stepped into the Heavenly Palace, triggered the plot of praising the fairy NPC, received candy, and completed the mission.
Back home, Zhou Shuling was twisting under the Chinese parasol tree. Recently, she wasn't as busy as before. Although the business of the shop would definitely take some time, she had time to exercise as long as she didn't have to work from dawn to dusk. In particular, Zhou Shuling felt that her butt had become bigger. She suspected that it was a sign of getting fat, so she hurried to exercise.
"Where did you go so early in the morning?" Zhou Shuling stopped the broadcast calisthenics. She was relying on her memory, so she was afraid that she might make a mistake and miss Liu Changan's joke.
"I went to Zhu Juntang's place to get some candy for Zhou Dongdong." Liu Changan took a candy in his hand and broke the other half for Zhou Shuling.
Zhou Shuling tasted it and looked at the box of candy in Zhou Dongdong's hand. "This must be very expensive, right?"
Liu Changan waved his finger, signaling Zhou Shuling not to talk about this.
Zhou Dongdong was still very happy. She told her mother that her good friend had treated her to candy.
"Okay … Go back and pack your bag." Zhou Shuling touched Zhou Dongdong's head.
Zhou Dongdong went upstairs happily like a small plane.
"Isn't this a little too competitive?" Zhou Shuling asked for Liu Changan's opinion. Although she was a mother, she felt that she didn't have much authority when it came to educating children.
"Children also have self-esteem and a psychology of comparison. It sounds like the candy her good friend brought wasn't cheap. We can't really let Zhou Dongdong bring a bowl of rice noodles … Maybe they won't mind, but children will talk to their parents about what happened at school. Some parents will think it's funny and won't care, but some parents might hurt Zhou Dongdong through their children." Liu Changan paused for a moment and did not say anything more about the influence of the parents. In any case, there was no way to determine what the human heart would be like. "Whether or not there has been an equivalent exchange is one thing, and how it will be in the future is another."
Zhou Shuling nodded. She couldn't win against Liu Changan in an argument. What he said was the truth. Zhou Shuling didn't believe that Liu Changan would hurt Zhou Dongdong.
"You really know how to take care of children." Zhou Shuling said with admiration.
"You have a good birth." Liu Changan also complimented.
"Pfft. You always say that Dong Dong is so stupid because of me, your mother." Zhou Shuling said proudly.
"I have to go to military training. I have to buy a new pair of shoes today. When the sun comes out, help me take out the chili sauce and wheat paste. "
"Okay. It smells good."
"Don't steal it."
"I'm not Dong Dong!"
"You two are similar."
"No!"
When Zhou Shuling helped Liu Changan dry the chili seasoning, she dipped her finger into the edge of the seasoning and tasted it. It was indeed delicious. She just tasted it and didn't eat it secretly.
