After returning home, Lin Shuang took a bite of the candy man, and the cubs all rushed over.
"Mom, is this a sugar man?" Xiao Jingyu looked at the sugar man in Lin Shuang's hand eagerly.
"Yes, do you want to eat it? I'll take you to buy some."
"If you want to eat, mother, I'll just eat this of yours, just a small bite."
"This is all my saliva. Come on, I'll take you to buy some."
Well, the children all liked it very much and followed Lin Shuang excitedly.
Xiao Yi sighed and followed.
Xiao Jingyu and Xiao Nanxin each took one of Lin Shuang's hands, swinging them happily, and the smiles on their faces magnified many times.
Xiao Ce took Shi Tou and Xiao Wangshu in the middle, and Xiao Yi protected them at the back.
Lin Shuang didn't feel annoyed by the non-stop chattering. It was really strange. She obviously didn't have that much patience. Maybe this was fate.
"Mom, are there any monkeys here?"
"Yes, the young lady doesn't look very young, but she actually has children this big. Are these four your children?" The shop owner selling candy figures was a little surprised.
"I am their stepmother." Lin Shuang said it openly.
Xiao Jingyu was afraid that Lin Shuang would feel sad, so he said hurriedly: "This is my mother, she is just like my real mother."
The vendor selling candy figures smiled and said, "Yes, she is your mother. As long as she treats you well, it's all the same to her."
"That's right. My mother is very good to me. I am her sweetheart." Xiao Jingyu said proudly.
"Here, this is your monkey candy man." After Xiao Jingyu took it, he looked left and right and couldn't let it go. He didn't want to eat the monkey candy man just like that.
"Nan Xin, Wang Shu, Xiao Ce, you guys pick one too."
Several children looked at Lin Shuang with joy. There were many kinds of sugar figures on the stall, and several children chose their favorite ones.
"Shitou, choose whatever you like and let this grandpa do it for you."
Shi Tou looked at Lin Shuang in surprise, "Aunt, I have one too?" Shi Tou's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Of course. Stones are so cute, of course there are some."
"Thank you, Auntie." Shitou excitedly stepped forward and chose a monkey that looked like Xiao Jingyu. He blew air into them one by one.
In less than a quarter of an hour, all five children's sugar figures were ready.
Several people were licking the candy man, reluctant to bite it into pieces.
After walking around the street for a while, I went back.
Lin Shuang always felt a little uneasy, and she didn't know why. She felt a little uneasy all day, but she deliberately suppressed it.
"Shopkeeper, I've already checked. The popular pickled fish and boiled fish at Guangjinlou across the street are all made by the woman we met today. She lives in Qingshui Village and has four children."
"Is that so? Since she insists on going against me, don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless." Liu Fugui looked at Guangjin Building opposite with a gloomy expression.
He waved his hand and said, "We need a lot of children this time, so let's start with Qingshui Village."
"Yes, shopkeeper."
Immediately, a man who looked like a servant went to the suburbs.
Lin Shuang took the group home and left the spicy strips and instant noodles she sold here. She told Aunt Li how to make them and how much they cost.
The system provides packaging similar to that of Chinese medicinal materials.
Having not been to town for a few days, Lin Shuang tried to make cosmetics at home. Some of the materials were exchanged from the mall. She would learn first.
Xiao Yi teaches his five children to read and write every day. I don’t know if it’s because of the potion or the changes in the plot, but Xiao Yi’s sleepiness time is getting shorter and shorter.
In the blink of an eye, it is the fifteenth of this month.
"Mom, I want to go out and play for a while."
"Go ahead, stay at the doorstep, don't run around."
"Okay, Mom."
The other kids also ran out, and some of them went to the river to catch stone crabs.
"Let's see who catches more and then let my mom fry them when we get home." Xiao Jingyu was almost drooling at the thought of the delicious food.
"Jing Yu, this thing is hard all over. Can we eat it?" Shi Tou said worriedly.
This stone crab that grows by the lotus pond is usually played with. It has little meat on its body, a very hard shell, and a pair of large claws that can pinch people.
"Of course you can eat it. You're still not my best friend, so why don't you believe what I say? If you don't believe me, you should believe what my mother says."
"Aunt said it's edible?" Shi Tou asked doubtfully.
"Of course. Mom said it smells delicious when fried and is crispy. Sprinkle it with chili powder and it's super delicious."
"Brother Shitou, stepmother said so, let's catch him quickly."
"Okay." Shitou believed in his aunt's craftsmanship, so he joined the team and started catching stone crabs.
"Brother, there are five children here and no adults around. This is a good opportunity." A man said with a sly grin.
"Haha, hurry up, go up and catch them all in one fell swoop."
"Okay." Immediately, more than 10 people ran out from the bushes and covered the mouths and noses of the five children with cloth soaked in sleeping pills.
"Hmm~" Xiao Nanxin fainted.
Xiao Wangshu was like a frightened deer, punching and kicking, looking towards home in horror.
"Let me go, wuwuwu." Xiao Jingyu was dragged away after struggling in vain.
Xiao Ce knew that he had no way to escape, so he deliberately grabbed his empty purse from his arms and threw it away.
Before Shitou could react, he was dragged away.
The five children were successfully obtained, and more than ten people smiled proudly as they all took them away quietly.
Their lair was in the suburbs. Because they had been doing such shady things for a long time, they had already dug a tunnel leading to the suburbs so that they could avoid inspection by the soldiers at the city gate.
After the success, they asked five people to take the five children back, and the rest of them continued to act secretly, looking for children who were alone or without adults around them.
There are usually not many people walking around in Qingshui Village. Most of the people who come and go are from the same village or relatives. The children are left at their own pace. When they are hungry or when it gets dark, they will go home by themselves. There is no need to worry about them. The older children are there to help their parents.
No one expected that all the children under the age of 10 in Qingshui Village disappeared.
Lin Shuang finally succeeded in making cosmetics at home.
"Oh, it's not easy. I failed so many times before I finally succeeded. I copied the answer for myself but didn't understand it."
Lin Shuang was muttering to herself, and Xiao Yi woke up after taking a nap.
As soon as I walked out, I saw Lin Shuang stretching and rubbing her aching neck.
He slowly reached over and said, "Madam, does it hurt here? Let me rub it for you."
"No need." Lin Shuang was not used to this yet and felt a little uncomfortable.
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Yi's broad palm was already on her shoulder, "Madam, how about this strength?"
