"No." Lu Jing looked at the greedy little girl with a smile, "Your baby teeth have fallen out. New teeth will grow in a few days. Don't worry."
Duoduo is almost four years old, and it is normal for her to lose her baby teeth.
After hearing her father say that new teeth could grow, Duoduo breathed a sigh of relief and was no longer panicked.
"Then do you still eat candied haws?" Shen Li chuckled.
Duoduo looked at the culprit who caused her to lose a tooth with distress, "Damn it!"
Anyway, I have already lost a tooth, so I might as well eat it.
"Then be smaller and bite slower." Shen Li said with a smile.
Duoduo nodded obediently.
It is late autumn now. The leaves of the trees on the roadside have turned yellow and golden, looking like pieces of broken gold. Not far away, the leaves of the sycamore trees are falling to the ground, and the whole long street is filled with the atmosphere of autumn.
This place looks like the place where men and women meet in Korean dramas.
Shen Li thought.
Lu Minghui was eating the candied haws his mother had bought while walking in the alleys of Beijing. He felt the golden leaves on the roadside rustling overhead, and the sunlight shining through the leaves onto his body, making him feel warm. He thought, the outside world is so beautiful.
Before his mother came home, he was gloomy and felt that life was gray and that he lived like a machine, like a walking corpse.
After his mother came, he felt the warmth of love, the sunshine, and the beauty of the world.
It’s great to have a mother.
When Lu Minghui took a bite of the candied haws in his mouth, he felt that it was extremely sweet.
The family wandered around aimlessly until they came to a small stall.
In the quaint alley, an old man in a black robe was sitting on a stool with a long golden object in his mouth, the other end of which was connected to a golden thing that looked like dough. The old man blew gently, his fingers constantly flying, making different shapes, and soon, a crystal clear mouse shape appeared vividly in his palm.
"What is this? It's so magical!" Lu Minghui looked at it carefully, his dark eyes flashing with tiny lights, and he subconsciously looked at Shen Li.
In his eyes, mother is the most knowledgeable person and there is nothing that mother doesn't know.
"This is blowing candy." Shen Li said with a smile.
"Blowing sugar?" Duoduo was a little curious. She looked at the lifelike mouse that turned transparent under the sun, "Is this sugar mouse for eating?"
Shen Li couldn't help laughing.
Duoduo is such a foodie, eating is always on her mind.
"Of course it's from China." Shen Li said, "Blowing sugar is a traditional folk craft in China. This kind of folk art has existed since ancient times."
"Look at this pot here. It's used to boil sugar. After the sugar is boiled, you can take it out and knead it." Shen Li said.
At this time, the old artist who had just finished blowing a candy cane looked at Lu Minghui with a smile, "Little boy, do you want one? It's hot out of the oven and delicious!"
Lu Minghui looked at the candy eagerly, "How much is one?"
"50 cents a piece, would you like one?" the old man smiled.
"Then give one to each child." Lu Jing took out money from his pocket and handed it over, but Lu Minghui took out two yuan from his trouser pocket and said, "Dad, I have money. I will buy candy for you and mom."
"Wow, our Minghui is so generous." Shen Li smiled gently.
"We have saved up the money that our father gave us before. This time, our grandmother and uncle also gave us red envelopes. We already have quite a bit of money," Lu Minghui said seriously.
And I gave all my sister's money to him to manage.
He is also considered a rich kid.
"In that case, Minghui will treat us." Shen Li said with a smile, "You don't have to eat it. You have to control your sugar intake. If you eat too much sweets during pregnancy, you will get gestational diabetes."
In fact, the most important thing is that she doesn't want to gain weight.
It is easy for women to gain weight during pregnancy. During pregnancy, their appetites increase, they eat more than usual, and they absorb nutrients better, so they need to control their diet more.
When she gave birth, she didn't want a caesarean section, but wanted a natural birth, so she had to ensure the size of the baby. If she ate too well during pregnancy, it would lead to difficult delivery and even tearing and episiotomy.
Although Shen Li had never given birth in her previous life, she had seen some simulated childbirth processes of pregnant women on the Internet.
Tearing can be divided into external tearing and internal tearing, and the picture is scary just thinking about it.
In this era, anesthesia medicine is not as good as future technology. It is very likely that episiotomy can be performed directly without anesthesia, with large scissors cutting open and then sewing up with needle and thread... The picture is so painful that I feel it.
"If your mother doesn't want to eat it, then neither will you." Lu Jing said, "Ming Hui, just buy what you need for you and your sister."
He himself does not care about food and does not like sweets.
"Oh." Lu Minghui handed over a dollar.
"I want a little rabbit candy, grandpa, do you want to blow it?" Duoduo tilted her little head and looked at the old artist in front of her intently.
"Oh, oh." The old man smiled, "Little kid, just watch."
At this time, the old man took out a small piece of brown and somewhat solidified sugar from the pot, pinched it, turned it in circles, pinched it into a small nest shape, then put it on his middle finger, and started pinching with both hands.
The old man moved very quickly, pinching it so hard that it made me dizzy.
Duoduo opened her eyes wide in surprise, watching the brown sugar being pinched and pulled, and then stretched out, and then put to the mouth of the old man and started to blow it.
As the candy was blown, it quickly became a little bigger and gradually began to reveal the shape of its belly, which was a little transparent.
Then there is the bunny's head, the bunny's ears, the bunny's limbs, and the bunny's tail.
"It's done." The old man put a piece of candy on a long bamboo stick and handed it to Duoduo, and handed another one in the shape of a mouse to Lu Minghui.
"Thank you, grandpa." Duoduo smiled happily.
Shen Li found that Duoduo was more optimistic and cheerful than before.
Thank you all to the strangers.
It is very different from before.
…
The family was strolling outside, and Shen Li's family came to the art museum.
"Duoduo, look, there are some paintings by art masters in here. You can go in and observe and learn from them." Shen Li said with a smile.
