Chapter 292: This Sour ......
Although I bought a lot of ghost costumes, Yan'er's enthusiasm for shopping still did not fade in the slightest, and there are not only these ghost costumes in the town today, but also many other strange things.
Halloween is a magical holiday that presumably originated from the celebrations associated with evil ghosts, so witches on broomsticks, ghosts, leprechauns, and skeletons are all Halloween markers. Bats, owls, and other nocturnal animals are also universal Halloween symbols.
So almost all the stalls, as well as in front of the store, no matter what it sells, will have some Halloween symbols hung to indicate that it is to celebrate the holiday.
These markers are made in a variety of strange ways, and they look very fun, so Jinyang finally has a rare time to go shopping without feeling bored and bored, Yan'er went to buy all kinds of small commodities she likes, he admired these strange markers along the way, and took some photos by the way, and borrowed them for appreciation.
In addition to costumes, there are all kinds of weird candy made on the street, and if you don't have candy at home on Halloween, then you will be treated like aliens, and those cute little kids will hate you to death, because you not only deprive them of fun, but also deprive them of a legitimate reason to eat candy.
The important thing is that Jin Yang found that not only Xiao Duoduo, but even Yan'er was full of interest in these strange candies, no, just after lingering in a small stall selling DIY handicrafts for a long time, she became obsessed with a small stall selling all kinds of candy next to her.
"Jinyang, these candies look so cute, I guess they'll be very fun, and Xiao Duoduo will like them very much, right?" Yan'er said with some surprise, pointing to a bunch of candy in the shape of small animals.
These candies are all made into lollipops, including kittens, puppies, lions, little devils, white ghosts, and mummies.
It's just that Jin Yang doesn't understand Yan'er's brain circuit at this time, shouldn't candy be used to eat?
Should this term be equated with candy?
Jin Yang said a little speechlessly: "Yan'er, if you want to have fun, I think we can buy some interesting toys, or make some gadgets by ourselves, instead of taking what should be in our mouths and playing with them." ”
Yan'er glanced at him when she heard this, and looked like you were already LO, "Who said candy must be for eating? This is for Halloween, carnival, screaming, horror, surprise...... These should be synonymous with Halloween, right, Mr. stall owner?"
The stall owner is an old man who has an old man, his gray beard looks very happy, and his red rosacea nose reminds people of some classic cartoon characters, he is holding a small stick of lollipop at this time, inserting it into the mold that has been fixed, and then quickly pouring the syrup that has been prepared on the side, the action is fast, ruthless, and accurate, it seems that he often makes this, and the technique is very skillful.
I didn't expect these cute and beautiful lollipops to be all handmade, it's incredible.
The white-bearded rosacea old man quickly made a batch of lollipops, until he heard Yan'er calling him, then he slowly raised his head, squinted his eyes at the pair of men and women in front of him, and said with a kind smile:
"Oh, beautiful young lady, these lovely candies can certainly be used for play, if you like, but I think they themselves would have preferred a beautiful lady like you to taste them for themselves rather than treat them as a toy to be discarded.
The lollipops made by Old Augustus were once the most memorable masterpieces for children, but it is a pity that today's young people are only interested in fun and excitement, and they have forgotten the deliciousness of candy and the pain of hunger. ”
As he spoke, his hands continued to move, taking the stick and pouring the syrup...... The movements are beautiful and rhythmic, and lovely masterpieces are born in his large, rough and wrinkled hands.
It's just that the words of old Augustus are full of loneliness, and this old man who looks like he is sixty or seventy years old is reminiscing about the innocent years that people once had, and sighing for the current society full of money and emptiness.
Jin Yang didn't know if he had thoroughly understood the meaning of Old Augustus's words, so he just smiled and continued, "This also shows that this world is developing rapidly, but we can't let go of some traditional things, eh, although many young people may not like these traditions very much, but Mr. Augustus, the lollipop you made is exactly what we need." ”
These candies are very interesting, this is not literal, nor does it mean that they have strange shapes, Jin Yang squatted down and picked up a lollipop that looked a bit like a cucumber and looked at it, and instantly became full of curiosity about this strange-shaped guy, and then asked with great regret, "Mr. Augustus, can I taste it?"
"Of course you can!" Grandpa Augustus's smile was full of strange feelings, and there was a hint of a child's mischief and the plot succeeded.
It's a pity that Jin Yang didn't see it at this time, otherwise he would definitely regret it, his eyes were completely attracted by the "gherkin" lollipop, and he didn't notice this little evil smile.
Yan'er's eyes were also attracted by the "tender cucumber" that grew brightly, and there was a small animal called "cute" in his heart that was about to move, and he also did not notice the strange smile of old Augustus.
This "little gherkin" is only as long as a thumb, covered in emerald green, slightly thicker than the thumb, a little bent from the middle, with some small green bumps on it, which looks watery, delicate and dripping, making people very appetizing at a glance.
Jin Yang only hesitated for less than a second, and then couldn't wait to put this "little gherkin" into his mouth, and then wrapped his tongue around it and sucked it.
Suddenly, an indescribable taste exploded in his mouth, filling all his taste buds, and then instantly spreading throughout his body......
Everyone knows Laotan sauerkraut, right?
is the one advertised by a famous host: "Unify a bucket of Laotan sauerkraut noodles, this is sour." Some people imitate my face, and some people imitate my noodles, no matter how similar the imitation is, it is not a unified bucket of Laotan sauerkraut noodles. Sichuan aged Laotan sauerkraut, pickled in ninety-nine eighty-one days, this sour, I can't believe it!"
But the power of this "gherkin" is much more than that of Laotan sauerkraut, and the feeling that is more sour than Laotan sauerkraut directly caused Jinyang to shiver several times, and he was covered in cold sweat, feeling that his mouth was sour, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
At this moment, Jinyang even had a feeling of doubting life, does this special code have anything to do with the word "sugar"?
Obviously, it fell into the vinegar vat, and it was soaked for an unknown number of days. This sourness, I'm afraid that an elephant can be soured, right? Jin Yang was stunned, and was directly frozen by this sourness, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
