C1169 The Taste of a Child

"What's so strange about it?" Lin Nan smiled.

"Take a look."

Dan Dan took out a piece of fruit skin and said, "These things are outdated now. Many supermarkets don't sell them anymore."

Lin Nan was stunned for a moment. He seemed to have understood something!

No wonder Ying dragged him to all the supermarket's Little Merchandize Shop. It turned out that she was looking for these things that could bring back memories from childhood.

"Dan Dan, you don't understand this... The taste of childhood is the best. This shows that Brother Nan is thoughtful. You don't have to be calculative. " Joya said with a smile on her face.

"I'm not being calculative, I'm telling the truth!"

Dan Dan took out another packet of snacks and said, "And these are hawthorn slices, small raccoon crispy noodle snacks. Brother Nan, do you want to transmigrate to the past?"

Her gaze clearly carried some disdain.

However, Chung Xinyue looked at Lin Nan with a face full of surprise.

"Brother Nan, these are the things I love to eat the most when I was young!"

She was very familiar with each and every one of them.

Because these snacks were her childhood memories.

At that time, because her family was poor, she rarely had the chance to eat snacks. When she saw children of the same age buying food, her eyes were filled with envy.

And her brother would always secretly buy delicious food for her.

Because it was not easy to get them, these snacks also existed in the deepest part of her memory.

Lin Nan finally understood Ying's good intentions. He smiled and said, "I know you like to eat, so I specially bought them!"

"Hey, Xinyue, you are so happy!"

He rummaged through his bag and took out a bag of hard things. "What is this? Can I eat it? Xinyue asked. Why are there so many peanuts? "

"This is malt sugar!"

Joya glanced at it and said excitedly, "You might not have seen it when you grew up in the city, but we all know about it when we grew up in the countryside! I remember when I was young, there would be an old grandpa who would carry a shoulder pole and shout at the village and village. It would be very fortunate if I could buy a piece of it! "

"Then I have never seen it before! The security in our neighborhood is very good. This kind of people are usually not allowed to enter. " Dan Dan spread out her hands.

However, Chung Xinyue looked at the malt candy in Dan Dan's hands and took it over. Her hands trembled as she held it in her palms and said, "Malt... candy."

As she said that, a tear fell from the corner of her eye.

"What happened to you? Xinyue." Lin Nan was at a loss.

Could it be that the things Ying bought had brought up Chung Xinyue's memories?

"Xinyue, why are you crying?"

Chung Xinyue took out a piece of paper and wiped Chung Xinyue's eyes.

"It's nothing. It's nothing."

Chung Xinyue sniffed and said softly, "Malt candy... is my favorite food! But only my brother knows!"

"Isn't your brother Brother Nan? What's so strange about that?" Dan Dan blurted out.

"Oh..."

Chung Xinyue was at a loss for words for a moment.

When Ying saw this scene from afar, the corners of his eyes became moist. Memories rippled in his heart.

When Ying was ten years old, Chung Xinyue was only four years old that year.

An old man carrying a shoulder pole to sell malt candy came to the village. The children on the left and right side of the village all took their pocket money to buy sugar.

Chung Xinyue could only stand in the distance and secretly look at them. Her eyes were filled with envy.

When Ying saw this, he ran over and asked, "Xinyue, do you want to eat it?"

"Yes."

Chung Xinyue nodded.

Thus, ying returned home and asked for money from her parents.

However, every drop of oil in a poor family was precious. As expected, ying did not get any money. Instead, he was scolded by his parents.

Ying returned to Chung Xinyue's side in disappointment and said, "Xinyue, mother did not pay."

The four year old Chung Xinyue was surprisingly sensible and said with a smile, "It's fine, big brother. I suddenly don't want to eat anymore. If I eat too much sugar, it will rot my teeth."

However, ying saw the disappointment and regret in Chung Xinyue's eyes.

At night, Chung Xinyue sat in the yard in a daze. She looked at the starry sky above her and said, "What's the taste of malt sugar? Is it very sweet?"

At this time, a shadow suddenly appeared behind Chung Xinyue and covered Chung Xinyue's eyes with both hands. "Xinyue, guess what I brought you?"

"What is it?" Chung Xinyue asked with a pure face.

Ying quietly took out a malt candy from her pocket and said with a smile, "Here you go!"

"It's malt candy!"

Chung Xinyue was very excited and picked up the malt candy to eat.

"Is it delicious?" Ying asked.

"It's too delicious, brother. It's so sweet!" Chung Xinyue smiled innocently.

Ying would always remember Chung Xinyue's smile at that time. That was the purest smile he had ever seen.

For a moment, he felt that he was qualified to be a brother!

However, Chung Xinyue felt strange as she ate. She asked, "Older brother, don't you have no money? Where did this malt candy come from?"

"I lied to you! Mommy gave me money to buy it. I just wanted to give you a surprise!" Ying said with a smile.

"Bad brother!"

Chung Xinyue smiled again.

That night, Chung Xinyue put the malt candy beside her pillow and fell asleep.

Although it was only a small piece, but she really ate it for a long time.2

It was not until later that she found out that the malt candy was actually exchanged by her brother for a ten-year-old birthday present, a pencil, and a neighbor's child.

Thinking of what her brother did for her, Chung Xinyue felt guilty and cried for a long time. She cried until her eyes were red and swollen.

Because of this, her mother was also angry and fiercely taught Ying a lesson.

When Ying brought half of her red and swollen cheek to comfort Chung Xinyue, "It's alright, as long as Xinyue feels that it is delicious."

"Big brother, malt candy is my favorite food!"

Chung Xinyue threw herself into Ying's arms and cried loudly.

Although she was beaten half to death, ying felt very happy - really happy.

……

Chung Xinyue also thought of this matter and tears fell again.

Dan Dan said from the side, "My little ancestor, what happened to you today? Brother Nan bought something. You don't have to be like this, right?"

Chung Xinyue asked with a sobbing tone, "Brother Nan, did you really buy this?"

" If I didn't buy it, who else could it be? " Lin Nan replied guiltily.

After saying that, Lin Nan even looked towards where Ying was.

Logically speaking, this should be the time for his brother to show up.

It was just the right time to stir up emotions. It could definitely be a show of familial love and murder!

But!

Ying, this fellow, did not appear for a long time.

Chung Xinyue held a large bag of snacks and said, "Thank you, Brother Nan!"

"You are welcome? Go back and learn. I have to go too. I'll come and see you next time! " Lin Nan said gently.

"Brother Nan, treat us to hotpot next time - the most expensive kind." Dan Dan said with a smile.

"Of course."

Lin Nan waved his hand and left.

"Goodbye, Brother Nan!"

Chung Xinyue waved her hand and walked towards the dormitory.

Joya frowned and said, "Xinyue, there is something wrong with you today."

"I think so too!" Dan Dan nodded her head in agreement.

Chung Xinyue did not answer them but turned her head abruptly.

She seemed to have seen a figure in the crowd - a figure that could only be seen in dreams.
