"Sister, are you okay?" The child noticed Wang Chunfeng's gaze and immediately threw away the stone in his hand.
He was a little worried about his sister, who was crying so sadly.
Just like when my mother saw my father die, she cried so sadly.
"Sister is fine. Whose child are you?" So naive, actually still alive.
"I am the child of Tao Tao's family. My name is Xu Zhaitao." Xu Zhaitao answered honestly.
"Would you like some candy?" Wang Chunfeng didn't really want to know whose child he was. After asking, she grabbed a handful of candy and handed it to him.
"For me, sister?" Xu Zhaitao couldn't believe it.
So much sugar.
"Yes, it's for you. All of these are for you. Take the candy and help your sister do something." Wang Chunfeng looked at him, pulled the corners of her mouth and forced a smile.
It’s just that the smile is too ugly, even a little scary, it’s better not to smile.
However, Xu Zaitao was not a timid child, and he was not scared by Wang Chunfeng.
After taking the handful of candy with both hands, he asked cautiously, "Okay, then... what do you want me to do?" No matter how naive Xu Zhaitao was, he knew that there was no free lunch in the world.
"Help your sister distribute the candies." Xia Xia couldn't eat the candies anymore, and she couldn't taste the sweetness of the candies, so it was better to distribute them all.
"Okay. I can help." Xu Zhaitao didn't expect it to be so simple.
He was a little happy that he could get so many candies by doing such a simple thing. In his excitement, he dropped a few of the candies in his hand.
Wang Chunfeng gave him a lot of candies, and he couldn't even hold them all with both hands.
I just managed to hold it together, but now a few of them have fallen off. It’s a bit difficult to hold them all together again.
Xu Zhaitao tried a few times, but found that he couldn't hold all the candies, so he simply lifted up his clothes and used them to hold the candies.
"Sister, can I take the candy home first? My home is very close. I'll be back soon." Xu Zhaitao was a little afraid that she would be unhappy. He hadn't even started working yet, and she wanted to take the candy home. It was normal for his sister to be unhappy.
"Okay." Wang Chunfeng nodded indifferently.
She hadn't expected much from the kid Xu Zhaitao.
Even if Xu Zhaitao ran away now, she wouldn't be too surprised.
However, Xu Zhaitao was a child who valued his promises. After putting all the candies back home, he ran down to help distribute the candies.
It's also very simple.
He just needs to stand here and greet people, wait for someone to come over, and ask that person to say "Xu Xia Xia, be happy!" and then give them five candies.
It's very simple.
In the last days, the temptation of sugar is huge.
Now everyone is saying that they can’t buy sugar, they can’t buy sugar.
After all, the Galaxy Supermarket is open at the entrance of the base.
There is a lot of sugar in the supermarket.
But no one was willing to use the exchanged money to buy candy.
At this time, even the most ignorant child would not ask for candy.
Because, buying food is more important than buying sugar.
Now just by saying a word, you can get five candies. Who wouldn’t want that?
Just one sentence.
Many people even lined up again to get more after they had taken theirs.
Xu Zhaitao was a little angry.
How could they do this.
He took it before and took it again.
Wang Chunfeng didn't care.
She just wanted people to bless Xia Xia. The more times they took it, the more blessings she would say.
There were a lot of people queuing up, and everyone who got the candy wished Xu Xia Xia a happy birthday.
A bag of candy was quickly distributed.
Not all of it was eaten, there was still a little left.
But Wang Chunfeng did not continue to distribute the candy. She gave the remaining candy to Xu Zhaitao.
Xu Zhaitao just shouted very hard and loudly.
"Thank you, sister. But sister, I have already taken it." Xu Zhaitao wanted it but didn't dare to take it.
Sugar, of course he wants sugar.
But he had already taken it.
If he takes it again, won’t he be just like that person?
"I know. It's a reward for you." Wang Chunfeng didn't smile this time.
She also knew that she looked ugly when she smiled.
She won't laugh unless she laughs with Xia Xia.
Wang Chunfeng stuffed the candy into Xu Zhaitao's hand and turned away.
She walked so fast that Xu Zhaitao couldn't stop her even if he wanted to.
Xu Zhaitao lowered his head and looked at the remaining candy in the bag. There was still a lot left.
He didn't do anything, so he took so much. Is that really okay?
Soon, Xu Zhaitao stopped thinking about this problem.
Some people around had already noticed that he had so much candy and were coming over.
I guess they wanted to snatch it from him because he was a kid.
Xu Zhaitao is naive, but not stupid.
Ran away immediately.
Ran back home.
Run all the way.
"What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry? Could it be that there is something happening outside..." Tao Tao saw him running so fast and thought it was raining stones outside again.
I rushed out to take a look, but it wasn't raining.
It's okay.
Tao Tao patted his chest several times.
Only after she finished taking the photo did she notice what Xu Zhaitao was holding in his hand.
"Where did you get...sugar? Is this sugar?"
"Yes, Mom. This is candy. It's very sweet. Mom, please try it." Although Xu Zhaitao had never eaten it before, he knew that this candy was sweet.
When he was helping, he saw many people taking the candies and eating them on the spot. They were so moved that they cried and said they were so sweet.
Xu Zhaitao peeled off the candy wrapper and put the candy in front of Tao Tao.
He thought his mother would eat the candy immediately and say it was sweet.
But it didn't.
Tao Tao didn't eat the candy. She looked at the candy that was close to her mouth with a unhappy expression.
"Where did you get the candy? Did you steal it from the supermarket?" Tao Tao had also been to the supermarket to buy things.
She still had some crystal cores at home, which she exchanged for money and bought some staple food.
The money she exchanged was not much, so she didn't dare buy anything other than staple food.
She didn't even dare to buy salt.
Just buy staple food.
This thing is worth the money, very filling.
Tao Tao knew that Xu Zaitao was not the kind of child who would steal things because she taught him.
She knew that if one wanted to survive in the apocalypse, those who were too naive would not live long. Only those who were selfish and willing to do anything to achieve their goals could live long.
It’s not good to raise a child too naive.
But she couldn't bear it.
Xu Zhaitao is like a pure white piece of paper. She can't bear to drop any ink on it, not even a single drop.
After all, she is still here, and she will protect him for a while longer.
Later, later she would teach him something else.
She wanted to keep her child innocent for a while longer.
But, it is sugar after all.
After the apocalypse, it’s hard to find sugar.
At least, after the end of the world, she was unable to give Xu Zhaitao candy.
But she often described the taste of sugar to Xu Zhaitao.
Say how delicious sugar is.
When she went to the supermarket to buy something, she saw some candies and wanted to buy some to bring back for Xu Zhaitao.
However, the most important thing for them now is to store food.
Sugar is not a necessary item.
So she resisted the urge to buy it.
When she saw all the candies, in such a big bag, she suspected that Xu Zhaitao had secretly gone to the supermarket and stolen the candies.
