Taoist Live: Family members must believe in science

"Grandma, I want a mandarin duck."

Standing in front of the stall, Mao Xin looked at the sugar paintings on the stall and said to the old woman.

She didn't know why she wanted a mandarin duck, but she just said it by accident.

The old woman looked up at her, smiled and said yes.

A layer of syrup was spread on the stove, making a sizzling sound.

The girl watched the old woman's movements in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Girl, is the young man sick? Why are you here?"

The old woman asked the girl while skillfully drawing sugar paintings.

Hearing the old woman's words, Mao Xin froze for a moment, a little at a loss.

Didn't hear the girl's answer, the old lady didn't care, and went on talking on her own.

"That young man used to come here almost every day to buy a pair of mandarin ducks, but now I haven't seen him for several days."

Hearing these words, images flashed before Mao Xin's eyes.

I remember that she used to receive a sugar painting that the boy gave her every day.

And every time it is a mandarin duck.

Although this candy painting is indeed very beautiful and delicious, but no matter how delicious it is, if you eat too much, you will get tired of it.

Just like this person, the relationship fades over time.

"Yeah, he's sick."

The girl spoke softly.

Hearing the girl say that Yuan Shenxi was ill, the old lady showed a concerned look on her face and asked the girl whether Yuan Shenxi's illness was serious or not.
"Is it serious? Not serious, is it?"

"Maybe after a while, it will heal on its own, maybe."

The girl's plausible answer made the old woman confused.

But just looking at the girl's expression, as an old lady who has been there, she can probably guess what happened.

For some unknown reason, the old lady sighed and told Mao Xin something about the past that she never knew.

In fact, when Yuan Shenxi brought her here for the first time, the old lady's sugar paintings had already been sold out, and she was about to close the stall and go home.

It was Yuan Shenxi who went to buy another bucket of sugar for the old lady, please don't leave until he comes back.

After that day, the boy would show up in front of the stall on time, buying the same things every time, a pair of mandarin ducks.

Over time, the old lady would leave a pair of mandarin ducks for him every time, waiting for him to come to pick them up.

It's just a pity that the boy hasn't come over these few days, so the old woman will still leave a pair of mandarin ducks for him every day.

After listening to the story told by the old woman, Mao Xin froze in place.

She remembered that besides giving her a sugar painting every day, there was another sentence.

The mandarin ducks stay together, and the candies are full of affection, just like our feelings.

The former girl didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, and thought it was a sentence Yuan Shenxi picked up from the Internet.

When I first heard this sentence, I was really very happy.

But he would say such a sentence every day, and the girl only felt that he was very naive.

Now Mao Xin finally understood this sentence.

This is not a sentence picked up from the Internet, nor copied from somewhere.

It was that shy boy's oath to this relationship, his promise to himself.

With deep affection and sweetness, they will stay together forever.

Such a simple eight words, but it carries a shy boy full of sincerity.

"Sister!"

Just when the girl was engrossed in her thoughts, a somewhat immature voice came from behind.

Mao Xin turned her head and saw a baby-faced boy in a suit running towards her with surprise on his face.

The boy's name is Tang Ruoqin, a freshman and Mao Xin's junior.

"Tang Ruoqin, why are you here?"

A look of surprise flashed across Mao Xin's face, but he soon returned to normal.

Babyface heard the senior sister's question, and expressed a little excitedly that he had just participated in a club activity.

I was about to go home now, but I didn't expect to meet my senior here.

"Sister, do you also like sugar painting?"

Tang Ruoqin asked happily when he saw the girl standing in front of the booth.

Mao Xin didn't answer his question, but turned his head and continued to look at the old woman.

After the two talked for a while, the mandarin duck that Mao Xin wanted was almost ready.

"Girl, learn to cherish the person in front of you."

The old woman didn't raise her head, she concentrated on painting sugar paintings.

But suddenly he said something without beginning or end.

Before Mao Xin could figure out what the old woman said, the old woman had already handed over the sugar painting.

"Okay, little girl."

Mao Xin nodded in a daze, and paid the old woman the money.

After that, he took the sugar painting and prepared to leave.

"Sister, where do you live? I'll take you back!"

"no need."

"It's okay, senior sister, you don't have to be polite, it's dangerous for a girl to walk alone at night."

"And maybe we just happen to be on the way."

Tang Ruoqin stalked and insisted on taking Mao Xin home, the girl was so annoyed that there was nothing she could do, so she reluctantly agreed to let him send him to the door.

Along the way, Tang Ruoqin was like a sparrow, chattering non-stop beside the girl.

His appearance reminded the girl of the time when she was with Yuan Shenxi.

At that time, Yuan Shenxi was also like this, talking non-stop beside the girl.

Whether it's big or small, boring, or interesting, boys will talk endlessly and tell girls incessantly.

Tell the girl how he was feeling then and what he did afterwards.

"Enough, shut up!"

Mao Xin suddenly stopped, turned his head, and shouted angrily at Tang Ruoqin who was still talking non-stop.

Babyface was stunned by the senior sister's fierce attack.

His mouth was still open, but he didn't even utter a single syllable.

He just stared blankly at the senior, not knowing why the senior was doing well, so he suddenly got angry.

The baby-faced brain was running wildly, thinking about which sentence was wrong just now, which made the senior sister unhappy.

Mao Xin himself didn't know why he suddenly became so angry, and he didn't even know why he was angry.

I feel that my chest/mouth is congested and I want to vent/vent it out.

"You can send it here, thank you."

Mao Xin said to Tang Ruoqin in an extremely polite and indifferent tone.

Babyface was still immersed in his own world, and seemed not to hear Mao Xin's words.

But the girl didn't care whether he heard it or not, and walked forward on her own after she finished speaking.

After walking for a while, Mao Xin finally returned to his home.

The moment she opened the door and entered, she froze for a moment.

The house was turned into a mess, and everything was thrown on the ground in a mess.

Obviously, during the short time she was out, the house had already been broken into by thieves.

Snapped!
Because of the girl's dazed look just now, the sugar painting that she had held in her hand fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

The girl was awakened by the sound, and squatted down in a panic, trying to pick up the sugar painting.
