Are all the love-brained villains my apprentices?

"Wow!"

Sheng Shuzhou looked at a paper-cutting shop on the street with curiosity in his eyes.

I saw the paper-cutting old man dancing on the paper with scissors in his hand.

Soon, the ordinary piece of red paper turned into a cute little tiger.

Sheng Shuzhou and Li Qingwu squatted next to the paper-cutting shop and exclaimed in unison with the other children watching nearby.

"The little tiger has had his haircut done."

The old man handed the cut tiger cub to the child waiting on the side with a smile.

"Anyone else want a paper cut?"

The old man asked with a smile.

But most of the people gathering around the paper-cutting shop are children.

A paper-cut that costs three spirit stones is already a sky-high price for these little kids.

So more children just gathered around the paper-cutting shop to watch the fun.

Seeing that no one responded, the old man didn't chase anyone away.

Instead, he took out some small pieces of paper of average quality from his side and started cutting them.

With the sound of "crackling", a lifelike paper lotus was born from the old man's hands.

The old man smiled and handed the paper lotus to a little kid who was watching nearby.

"Consider this as a gift from me to you."

The child took the paper lotus with surprise and looked at it from left to right, expressing his curiosity.

"Thank you grandpa!"

The old man touched the top of the child's head with his rough hands.

Seeing this, a group of children nearby also clamored for it.

The old man looked at every child around him with a smile.

"Okay, okay, don't worry.

Everyone has.

Come one by one."

Li Qingwu looked at the lifelike paper-cut in the old man's hand, lowered his head to check his small cloth bag containing spirit stones, his eyes becoming brighter and brighter.

"Junior brother, Miss Li."

Just as the two were watching fascinated, a voice was heard.

Sheng Shuzhou didn't even look at the paper-cutting, and immediately turned around to look at the source of the sound.

Then Yayin and Zhu Ping'an came over with two strings of candied haws in their hands.

Lin Wenyu was behind the two of them, taking three skewers and eating happily.

Sheng Shuzhou looked at the candied haws in Yayin's hand, put the paper-cutting behind his mind, and moved closer to Yayin.

"Wow! Brother, you guys really bought it back!"

Yayin leaned down and handed the string of candied haws in his hand to Sheng Shuzhou.

"Yes, Master invited me."

Sheng Shuzhou happily took it and shouted to Lin Wenyu who was behind Yayin.

"Thank you, Master!"

Lin Wenyu waved towards Sheng Shuzhou while holding a string of candied haws as a response.

The children who were originally surrounding the paper-cutting shop were also attracted by the candied haws in Sheng Shuzhou's hand.

Looking at the candied haws in Sheng Shuzhou's hand, he swallowed silently.

After Yayin handed the candied haws to Sheng Shuzhou, he stood up and looked for Li Qingwu.

Then I saw Li Qingwu standing on tiptoe, talking to the old man in the paper-cutting shop.

The old man kept his eyes on them for a few seconds, then smiled and nodded.

Then Li Qingwu took out three spirit stones from his small cloth bag and placed them on the table.

After doing all this, Li Qingwu turned around and met Yayin's eyes.

Li Qingwu avoided Yayin's gaze, walked through the children and came to Yayin's side.

"Ahem, what did you mean by calling me Miss just now?"

Yayin pretended not to notice what Li Qingwu had just done and handed the other string of candied haws in his hand to Li Qingwu.

"Miss Li, this string is yours."

"Many, thank you."

Li Qingwu took the candied haws handed over by Yayin and thanked him awkwardly.

Yayin smiled and stood up straight.

"Here."

Zhu Ping'an handed the extra string of candied haws in his hand to Yayin.

Yayin was stunned for a moment, then put on a helpless smile.

"Senior sister, I don't need it."

He just refused when Lin Wenyu asked.

From behind, when I saw Zhu Ping'an holding two strings in his hands, I thought they were all from Zhu Ping'an.

Zhu Pingan shrugged.

“Master said that each person should have one string, and there should be no partiality.

I said I have to give it to you, but you decide how to deal with it."

Zhu Pingan looked like she was just following orders.

No matter how Yayin reacted, he forcefully stuffed the candied haws into his hand.

Then he continued to eat the string in his hand and moved away from the circle of children.

Yayin stared at the candied haws in his hand in a daze.

Candied haws are not unfamiliar to him.

Even though I rarely went out during the years I was at the Xu family.

But every time his cousins ​​came back from outside, they would bring him some food.

Sometimes it is a few pieces of cakes, sometimes it is a few strings of candied haws, and sometimes it is a piece of pickled duck from the restaurant outside.

Several cousins ​​gathered in his yard and divided the things among themselves.

Later, the Xu family was destroyed.

The people from the past, along with these beautiful memories, disappeared into Yayin's life.

Later, Yayin was taken back home by Grandpa Zhang.

Although Grandpa Zhang was not rich, he would try his best to bring him some small gifts.

The most common item brought back every time is candied haws.

After Grandpa Zhang died, Yayin never went to eat candied haws again.

Yayin looked at the candied haws in his hand and took a bite hesitantly.

It's sweet, but not as delicious as I remembered.

Just as Yayin was lost in his memories, a little girl bravely tugged at the corner of Yayin's clothes.

Feeling the force from the hem of her clothes, Yayin lowered his head, looked at the little girl with hesitation on her face, squatted down, and put a smile on his face.

"What's wrong, little sister?"

The little girl looked at the candied haws in his hand, swallowed, and mustered up the courage to speak.

"Brother, if you don't like it.

Can you give me a candied haws?"

The little girl's big eyes were full of desire.

She just watched the older brother holding the candied haws for a long time without eating it, so she mustered up the courage to ask.

Hearing her request, Yayin was stunned for a moment, then took out a clean handkerchief from his body and used the handkerchief to pad a candied haws.

The handkerchief and the candied haws were given to the little girl.

"of course can."
