As if to cover up his embarrassment, Yongqi changed the subject.
"Yongqi, I'll explain to you later. Please help me find out where the candy seller is."
Little Swallow was extremely anxious. While looking around for someone to sell candy, she asked Yongqi beside her to ask for help.
Please, please don't let him leave! Jade Emperor, Buddha, Little Swallow begs you, please don't let the candy seller leave.
Please, I beg you, let me find her.
"Alright, alright, Little Swallow, don't worry, don't worry, I'll help you look. If all else fails, we'll go back to the inn and ask someone to help us look."
Yongqi noticed Xiaoyanzi's anxiety and comforted her, then stopped thinking about anything else and helped her look around for people.
But now it's getting dark, everyone has finished eating and gone out for a stroll. The market is quite crowded, and the voices of many people are mixed together, so it's not so easy to find them just by listening to their calls.
...
Compared to Xiao Yanzi and Yongqi, Chen Nian and Ertai were closer to the candy vendor. Ertai helped block people while looking around for the candy vendor.
"Found it."
Ertai looked at the boss standing in front of him, shouting his wares. In front of him were two baskets with two large boxes on top, covered with lids. Inside were what should be called sugar bait. There was also a sign next to him with the words "sugar bait" written on it.
Ertai led his men over.
"Young master, young lady, would you like some sweet treats? I only have these at my place. You can't easily buy them anywhere else, and even if you do, they certainly won't taste as good as mine."
The candy vendor, seeing the two people approaching him, spoke enthusiastically while bending down to uncover the candy covered by a lid, revealing its appearance.
Is this it?
Ertai turned his head and asked the person next to him.
"Girl, have a taste."
Seeing Ertai's actions, the candy vendor knew that Chennian was the real decision-maker. He took out a knife, cut off a piece of candy, skewered it with a bamboo stick, and handed it to Chennian. He also cut off a piece for Ertai.
"No need, thank you for your kindness, boss. Please weigh some for us."
Looking at the candy offered to him and smelling the familiar sweet aroma, he realized that this was the same candy stall he had eaten at when he was a child. He refused the candy offered by the owner, who was probably the uncle from his childhood.
"No need, boss, could you please weigh some for us?"
Ertai also declined.
Having been paying close attention to Chen Nian, how could he not see the surprise and delight in Chen Nian's eyes?
"Try it, it's free. Try it first and see if it's good. You out-of-towners might not be used to the taste, but give it a try first."
If you like it and think it's good, we'll buy it; if you don't, we won't. Give it a try! Our food is delicious; I guarantee you'll want more after you try it.
The candy vendor continued to persuade him, speaking enthusiastically.
He has great confidence in the taste of his family's cooking.
Seeing the enthusiastic candy vendor, the two felt it was impossible to refuse any longer and accepted the candy. The vendor gave them a generous portion.
"Young lady, you look very familiar. Haven't we met somewhere before?"
While the two were eating the candy, the candy vendor looked at the delicate-looking woman in front of him, who was taking small bites of candy, and felt a strange sense of familiarity. He paused for a moment, searching his memory for something.
