Mother, Have It. I Don't Like Sweet Food

Su Changsheng also saw that something was wrong, but it was not his place to ask about other people's business.

"Let's not talk about other people's family matters. As long as they don't hurt Girl, we can get along peacefully."

Xu Fengqiao felt that it made sense and did not continue asking.

After a while, she carried Su Ling to wash her face. She was already extremely sleepy, but she was still muttering something.

"Candy… it's so sweet."

When Xu Fengqiao heard this, she felt a little down. Girl had never eaten a piece of candy since she was young. Now that she finally had one, she actually missed it even when she was asleep.

She put her to bed, then went to find Xiaoqiu.

"Xiao Qiu, when you come back from work tomorrow, go to town and see if there are any shops selling candy. If there are, buy a few pieces."

With that, she placed a string of copper coins in Xiaoqiu's pocket. As if afraid that it was not enough, she placed some more.

Xiaoqiu held her back, refusing to take it.

"Mother, I have some."

Xu Fengqiao's eyes turned red when she heard that. "Where did you get the money? Your and Xiaochun's wages are all with me. Where did you get the money from?"

Xiaoqiu stopped talking when he heard that. He quickly said, "Then I don't want it. I'll just buy it for Brothers and Sister."

Xu Fengqiao's eyes turned even redder. Her voice was a little choked up, but she was very serious.

"There are four children in the family. Buy four pieces and each of you will get one piece. The tough days will pass. Our family will definitely get better and better!"

Xiaoqiu rarely saw his mother like this, and he felt terrible.

He agreed, then watched his mother leave.

The next evening, Su Ling was still observing her flower in the courtyard when she saw her brothers return.

She raced over and threw herself on top of them.

"Big Brother, Second Brother, you're finally back! Mom made wild vegetable fritters today. They smell so good."

Speaking of which, she was the one who picked the wild vegetables.

The girl was a little proud. She raised her head high, looking for praise.

Xiaoqiu stroked her head, then carefully took a stick of candied hawthorn from his pocket.

The candied hawthorn was bright red and wrapped in a layer of hawthorn. It looked very tempting.

Su Ling looked at the candied fruit for a long time, but she still did not know what it was.

"Big Brother, what is this?"

Xiaoqiu handed her the candied fruit and crouched down.

"Sister, this is called candied hawthorn. It's delicious. Have one."

She carefully bit one off and carefully licked the rock candy on the surface.

"It's so sweet ~"

Seeing that she liked it so much, Xiaoqiu wanted her to eat it slowly. However, she suddenly pointed at the stick of candied hawthorn and counted them one by one.

"One, two, three, four, five. There are five of them. Big Brother, let's have one each and give one to Zhao Yan, okay? He gave us candy yesterday."

Xiaoqiu did not expect her to have already made the arrangements. He could not describe how he felt.

"Doesn't Sister like it? Why don't you have it all?"

The girl shook her head like a rattle. "No, this one is enough for me!"

Xiaoqiu did not say anything else. He just watched her distribute the candied hawthorns to them one by one and then run happily next door.

They heard her shout. The sound was so joyous.

"Zhao Yan, my brother bought me candied hawthorn!"

They watched the young guy walk out into the yard, then took that last one from her.

At last the girl returned, satisfied. She was still smiling.

Xiaoqiu walked into the house now and gave his mother the rest of the coins.

"I didn't find anyone selling candy. But I saw a vendor selling candied hawthorns, so I bought a stick. Sister liked it."

Xu Fengqiao had long heard the laughter in the courtyard and was very happy.

She was about to ask Xiaoqiu to call the children back for dinner when he suddenly gave her the candied hawthorn.

"Mother, have it. I don't like sweet food."
