time is my shadow

Chapter 504: Meeting Fang Zhiyou (8)

"It's good for a girl to be independent. She can be self-sufficient. It's not important to act on the face of others, and she doesn't need to worry too much." Lin Mengmeng said, turning her phone over, not knowing what she was thinking, maybe They are looking at their past.

"You don't need to be so strong, you're a girl." Xiaoqi comforted her. In fact, girls are weaker than boys, and their emotions are very complicated. It's easier to let yourself fall into a deadlock and can't get out
"No, that's you, I'm not like that, you have parents, a brother, and a partner who loves you wholeheartedly, your life is more comfortable than anyone else, you are enviable and I am jealous, you can have So much, you don’t need to work hard, you have the ability to never forget, you don’t need to be desperate, because you still have support, you don’t need to hide your tears, because you have silent company.” Lin Mengmeng said with extravagant hope Said, because all this was what she wanted to have the most, what she wanted the most, and she also tried her best to live like this.

"Mengmeng, stop talking." Xiaoqi saw a tear appearing in the corner of Lin Mengmeng's eye, and it was about to fall, but she couldn't let it go, lingering, she was very sad now, and she felt the same way.

You don't know, I want friendship, but friendship was killed by myself, I want family affection, but my mother has gone away from me, it is impossible to reappear, love, love is simply a false thing, there is no meaning of existence , will only increase my hatred.

These are the words that Lin Mengmeng could not say, nor dared to say, nor could she say them.

"Mama, here you are." Lin Xiaochi's chubby body appeared in front of the two of them, holding a golden sugar figurine in his hand.

The sugar seller is a very old man. He carries a load, one end is a stove for heating, and the other end is sugar material and tools.

Sugar is made by heating sucrose and maltose. Its natural color is brown, and some add pigments or pigments to make it red or green.

The control of the heat is the key when making it. If it is too hot, it will be too thin and easy to deform, and if it is cold, it will be too hard and cannot be shaped.

The tools used are very simple, mostly spoon-shaped and shovel-shaped. The sugar figurines are made of boiled sucrose or maltose in various shapes, including figures, animals, flowers and plants.

"This is..." This is a sugar figure, three-dimensional handwriting - Lin Xiaochi.

"Mama, this is Xiaochi, look, does it look good?"

To draw sugar, the artist scoops up the melted sugar juice with a small spoon, and quickly pours it back and forth on the stone slab to draw the shape. At this time, the skill of the folk artist is the key to the shape.

Because the sugar material is melted after being heated by fire during casting, and the sugar will solidify once it cools down. Therefore, folk artists are required to have sharp eyes and quick hands, and make shapes with both eyes and hands in order to complete them in one go.When the shape is completed, the sugar painting is scooped up with a small spatula, and bamboo sticks are pasted on it. After it solidifies, it can be put on straw handles for sale.

"I can write my own name. Uncle just taught me stroke by stroke. I learned from him and gave it to Mama." Lin Xiaochi thoughtfully brought the sugar figurine in front of Lin Mengmeng and put it to his mouth. , Let Lin Mengmeng have a taste.

"You can eat, mom doesn't eat sweet things." Lin Mengmeng doesn't like to eat too sweet things, because sweets will make you tired, so she won't want to eat them in the future.

"No, you eat, it looks good, it must be delicious."
