Chapter 55: Sharing Sugar Under the Moon [Jinjiang Authentic Edition Exclusive Release·Sugar is Gone!]...
Because of the severe beating he received in the summer, the four-year-old Hu Hai developed a deep disgust and fear for the young Qin Ying in his heart. If it were something else, he might have been able to bear it, but the four words "Xuanniao Naitang" were too attractive to a Qin Dynasty child, whether they were separated or put together!
Seeing that his brothers and sisters were lining up actively, Hu Hai, who was conflicted in his heart, finally couldn't resist this charming temptation and slipped to the last position in the line.
When he leaned over and stretched his neck, he saw that his brothers and sisters in front of him were all walking to the side happily, holding two candies. He waited and waited, and saw that his eighth sister, ninth sister and tenth sister standing in front of him were also smiling and holding two candies and happily moving to the side.
Hu Hai was just like a hungry eater standing in a long line in front of the cafeteria window late at night, rubbing his stomach with hunger. After a period of anxious waiting, he finally met face to face with the young chef Ying who was sitting inside the window, wearing a black tiger-head hat and leisurely serving food.
In order to express his hatred towards Qin Ying and his status as an older uncle, Hu Hai immediately raised his chin high and stretched out his right hand in front of Qin Ying, acting as if he was waiting for his eldest nephew Qin Ying to "pay tribute" to him, his younger uncle.
Looking at Hu Hai's disgusting dog-like appearance, the little fat boy Ying couldn't help but twitch his lips, and his two little hands were eager to use the "Ten Dragon Slaps" to hit Hu Hai's forehead, but he knew what day it was, and he was not so stingy as not to give Hu Hai two candies, so he rolled his eyes and put his little fat hands into the plastic bag again to feel around.
Unfortunately, this touch frightened the little guy so much that his eyes widened and his pupils trembled!
"Ya ...
Hearing the little guy's sudden surprised voice, the princes and princesses who were standing around happily looking at the candies in their hands turned their heads and looked at the eldest nephew sitting next to the eldest sister-in-law.
When Hu Hai saw this scene, he immediately had a bad feeling in his heart.
Wang Ling watched as her son first put one of his little hands into the strange bag and fumbled around, then put both hands in, and finally lifted up the bottom of the rustling bag and shook it hard.
But in full view of everyone, the big bag that emitted a blue light under the moonlight was shaken wildly by the little baby, and not even half a candy fell out, let alone a single one.
Qin Ying had no choice but to hold up the bag and pass it to Hu Hai. She tilted her furry little head slightly and babbled to Hu Hai:
"Aiyaah..." (Uncle Eighteen, the candy is gone.)
[Ah!] When Hu Hai, who had been waiting in a long queue, heard this, he felt as if a thunderbolt had struck his forehead!
He bent down in disbelief and looked into the bag. When he saw that it was empty, his eyes widened in shock and his little face turned red.
Wang Ling couldn't help but twitch his eyelids when he saw the Eighteenth Young Master, who was angry, annoyed, resentful, and had a complicated expression on his face, as if he was about to scream and burst into tears.
This is really strange! Could it be that his son and the Eighteenth Young Master are just naturally incompatible? Why do these two uncles and nephews always have strange conflicts when they meet?
Seeing Hu Hai pointing his finger at his face with his right hand, his eyes filled with tears, his lips trembling, and his red little face full of shame and anger, as if he had deliberately humiliated him, Qin Ying felt a little wronged.
My God! Pavlov's dogs weren't trained in a day! He had no intention of deducting Hu Hai's share of candy. This time, he was once again tricked by the Ba Langtai system!
He saw that the candies sold in the system mall came in packs of sixty pieces. He calculated on the way here that each of the ten aunts and seventeen uncles would get two candies, leaving six pieces left.
On this full moon night, he gave the remaining six candies to his grandfather, grandmother and mother, two each.
He's too young to eat candy, so he won't eat any! This way, the sixty candies are just enough to share!
But who knew that man proposes, God disposes! He had counted everything correctly when he arrived, but when it came time to divide the candies, there were only fifty-four in the bag!
Damn it! After the "little translator's false advertising," even a bag of "toffees" was shortchanged! Qin Ying once again mentally spoke a string of beautiful Chinese words to the unfinished system, then gave Hu Hai in front of her a rare gentle grin and said:
"Aaaah..." (Uncle Eighteen, I'm sorry. Maybe I forgot about you when the black bird gave me candy. It's okay. Next time I see the black bird, I'll tell it to let it know you exist. I will never forget you in the future~)
Upon hearing her son's baby voice that was worse than no comfort, Wang Ling's face froze in embarrassment.
The angry Hu Hai finally encountered the last straw that broke the camel's back. He screamed "Wow!" and burst into tears, looking up at the moon.
After hearing what their eldest nephew said, the princesses and princes couldn't help but look at each other with strange expressions.
The Xuanniao was the patron saint of the Qin people for generations! How come all of their brothers and sisters, young and old, men and women, could successfully obtain the milk candy bestowed by the Xuanniao, but only the eighteenth brother did not?
Seeing her son run into his eighteenth uncle for the second time and make him cry loudly in public, Wang Ling was really overwhelmed. As she said before, the one who was bullied and cried was her son, and the one who was bullied and cried was her youngest uncle. She didn't mention what happened in Zhangtai Palace last time, but this time it was truly God's will! God had made the candy disappear, and she couldn't conjure up two candies for her brother-in-law out of thin air. She could only stretch out her right hand to hold Hu Hai's little arm and coax him gently:
"Eighteenth brother, don't cry. When my sister-in-law returns home, she will send you some more honey."
"Ooooooooooooooooo, I don't want it!"
Upon hearing this, Hu Hai shook off his elder sister-in-law's hand, rubbed his eyes with his two little hands, and cried even more sincerely.
Seeing this, Qin Ying narrowed her eyes and shouted in a childish voice:
"Aiya..." (Uncle Eighteen! You cry! If you cry again! I'll hit you!)
"you……"
Hearing that the little bastard not only refused to give him the candy but also wanted to hit him! Hu Hai was shocked and angry, and his hands trembled as he pointed at the bully-like baby again and again.
The other palace maids waiting on the side heard the noise coming from the princess and the princes, and couldn't help but look over here.
As the eldest princess, Ying Yinman saw that her sister-in-law was unable to coax her younger brother, and she couldn't help but look up at the bright moon in the night sky. She knew that soon all the ladies would come to attend the banquet.
Although Eighteenth Brother's biological mother died early, his adoptive mother was Madam Qing, who held a very special status in the harem. If Madam Qing saw her younger brother in this state, she would definitely feel uncomfortable.
Besides, today is my eldest brother’s good day after all. It’s already this late, so let’s spend this day happily and completely.
Thinking of this, Ying Yinman took a few steps forward, leaned over and hugged her younger brother's shoulders, pulled the crying Hu Hai aside, lowered her head and smiled softly at him, saying:
"Brother Hai, don't cry. I don't like sweets anymore. Here, take these two candies. They're all the same thing. Don't mind it. The Black Bird in the sky is busy all day, just like the Emperor, so it's understandable that it gave Ying fewer candies due to a momentary oversight. It didn't mean to forget you."
Seeing the two long blue and white candies lying quietly in his elder sister's hand under the bright moon, Hu Hai stopped crying instantly. He sobbed and wiped his tears with the back of his hand. He raised his right hand and took the two candies from his elder sister's hand. Then he turned around and ran to the side, tore open the wrapping paper and started eating them happily.
Qin Ying, who had originally felt a little guilty, saw Hu Hai's rudeness and instantly felt that slight guilt vanished! She just thought that the idiot system was really stupid this time! He just loved buying candies that were underweight!
"Big sister, here's a candy for you."
Seeing that the eldest sister gave both of her candies to her younger brother, the second princess Yang Man, the second son Gao and the third son Jiang Lu hurriedly raised their right hands to share the candies with their eldest sister.
The other younger princesses and princes followed suit and took out their own candies and handed them to their eldest sister with a smile. Even the youngest, Princess Ten, tried to stand on tiptoe and use her little hands to stuff her candy into her eldest sister's palm, which formed a sharp contrast with Hu Hai's impolite behavior in grabbing the candy just now.
Seeing his brothers and sisters stuffing candies into his hands, Ying Yinman waved his hands and said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry:
"No, no, you guys eat your own candy. I really don't like candy."
As soon as Qin Ying heard what her aunt said, she knew it was a lie. After all, ancient people had no resistance to sweetness. The only sugars that nobles can eat now are basically honey and malt sugar. The nobles in the palace would squeeze the sugarcane sent from Chu to the capital into juice to drink, and the real sugarcane that could be stored and eaten had to wait until the Han Dynasty.
The little fat boy silently put the matter of "sugar making" on his mind again.
Ying Yinman didn't know that her eldest nephew had completely figured out her thoughts. She shifted her gaze from her younger brothers and sisters' milk candies, and smelling the sweet and milky candy bars, she naturally wanted to taste them herself. What's more, the milk candies had an extraordinary origin, and perhaps there was a blessing from the black bird hidden in them.
For the sake of the overall situation, she was able to give her candy to her crying younger brother, but she did not want to accept the candy given to her by her other brothers and sisters. If it was just candy, it would be fine, but what if her brothers and sisters gave her the candy and also shared their good fortune with her? Then what should she do?
Let’s just forget it.
Looking at her aunt's gentle, generous and kind smile, and then looking at the friendly uncles and aunts around her, Qin Ying couldn't help but pursed her lips. It was like a genetically mutated evil fleece had sneaked in among a group of little sheep!
When she thought of what was recorded in history books, that the group of aunts and uncles standing in front of her were either brutally beheaded or dismembered by Hu Hai's orders after he usurped the throne, or were forced to commit suicide, and that this group of handsome men and beautiful women who were born so bright and beautiful met a tragic end within a year after their grandfather's death, Qin Ying could not help but clench her two fists and looked at Hu Hai, who was happily eating candy, with disgust.
If it were possible to test his genes and psychological condition, he would really want to know whether this naughty boy Hu Hai was hyper-masculine and had an antisocial personality!
After all, looking back at the past five thousand years of Chinese history, I’m afraid there will never be another ruthless person who can ruthlessly slaughter his entire family after succeeding to the throne!
Seeing her son looking at the Eighteenth Young Master with disgust, Wang Ling, as a mother and sister-in-law, didn't know what to say. She could only turn her head and whisper in her son's ear:
"Ying, you can't let good people suffer."
"Your aunt has actually come to our house to see you several times, but the timing was unfortunate. You were either asleep or with your great-grandfather and didn't come home, so you and your niece never met."
"Today is a palace banquet, and we need to make everyone happy. Do you have any other delicious food? Send some to your aunt to make up for it."
After hearing what her mother said, Qin Ying blinked and placed a new order from the system mall.
As soon as the little baby produced two beautiful colorful lollipops from his system space, his eyes sparkled and he waved to his aunt with joy, babbling:
"Aa ...
Hearing their eldest nephew's baby voice, which sounded like a little adult coaxing a child, the princesses and princes' eyes lit up again and they gathered around with surprise and exclaimed "Wow!"
When Hu Hai saw the two colorful lollipops in Qin Ying's hand, which were as big as his face, his eyes widened instantly!
He subconsciously looked down at the remaining long piece of milk candy in his hand. After comparing the two candies, Hu Hai felt that he had suffered a great loss!
If the lollipop was in his elder brother's hands today, Hu Hai would rush forward to grab it without hesitation. However, when he saw Qin Ying's smiling face, he hesitated and did not dare to step forward to fight for it, because he knew that his elder brother would not hit him, but this little bastard Qin Ying would not only hit him, but also beat him violently!
Hu Hai could only bear the pain and turn his gaze away.
After Ying Yinman received the two lollipops that her nephew had forced into her hands, she couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise. She said to her nephew excitedly with her eyes curved:
"Thank you very much, Ying."
Ying, the little fat boy, immediately grinned and waved his little hands.
Seeing that all the sisters-in-law and uncles had candies in their hands and were smiling, Wang Ling, as the eldest sister-in-law, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The next moment, she felt something hard poking the back of her hand. Wang Ling lowered her head in surprise, and saw that under the watery moonlight, her son quietly stuffed two identical lollipops into her sleeves and blinked his big eyes at her mischievously.
Wang Ling was stunned, and then couldn't help shaking her head and laughing. Although she was a little amused by the little guy's sneaky little actions, she had to admit that she was only a little older than the eldest princess, so she happily put the two lollipops into her wide sleeves.
