Chapter 6: Marshmallows

Yao Qingqing twisted her little body and coquettishly in her arms, insisting that she was injured by herself, Zhong He couldn't help her, and made sure that she was only suffering a skin injury, and it was no big problem, so he let Liu Chi leave, "Only this time, next time you won't have such a good life, there are people dying every day in the mass graves outside the city, and I can't even distinguish my face, if I don't want to lie down with them, give me some peace."

Liu Chi shuddered, shook his head with a dry smile, "Don't dare, don't dare to give a small person a big dar." After saying that, he hurriedly ran away like a burning buttocks, and didn't dare to stay for a moment.

Zhong He hugged Yao Qingqing lovingly, but Yao Qingqing struggled in her arms, clamoring for Su Chengye to hug her. This can make Zhong He angry, and he made a gesture to screw her face, "I kissed my sister just now, it turned out that I was all lied to me, and after using my sister, I turned my face and didn't recognize anyone, what a little villain." ”

Yao Qingqing's little face was very entangled, "Of course I'm close to my sister, it's just ...... It's just that my brother hasn't hugged me for a long time, and I want my brother to hug me again. ”

The innocent words made Zhong He sad, and also made Su Chengye, who was half-sitting on the bed, sad, and quickly got up and took her from Zhong He's hands. He was weak and anxious, and it was inevitable that he had a slight physical contact with Zhong He, and his arms touched each other, and at that moment, Su Chengye seemed to have returned to the earth, and the moment before he died, the illegal big truck was crashing into him, and boundless fear rose in his heart, and his body couldn't move.

Fortunately, it was only a moment, and fear came and went quickly, he hugged Yao Qingqing, frowning, was it just an illusion His eyes subconsciously looked at Zhong He, and he only saw a cold face without any emotion.

"Brother, am I very heavy?"

Yao Qingqing touched his frowning brows, looked at his white and tender arms, and his little face was bitter.

"Qingqing, lightly, as light as your name, as light as a marshmallow. Su Chengye smiled and comforted her, but it was really heavy. His body has just been recuperated by Linglu, and he is only recovering, not to mention how good his physique is, and it is very difficult to hold it.

Yao Qingqing laughed happily, tilted her little face and asked: "What is a marshmallow, is cotton made of sugar, the gentleman in the county school taught us that cotton can be used to make cotton clothes, quilts, and candy?"

She looked at the quilt on the bed with her fingers in her eyes, and she had a look of discovery of a new world on her face.

Snack goods, Su Chengye sighed in his heart, afraid that she would really eat cotton, and immediately explained: "Marshmallow is candy that looks like cotton, soft, light, sweet, beautiful and delicious." ”

When Su Chengye was a child, you can see cotton candy machines everywhere on the street, and the school gate is indispensable, the hawker uses a bamboo stick to stretch into the rotating cylinder, and "fishes" a cloud from it three times or twice, which is very magical, and the marshmallow machine is surrounded by water when the school is over, even if there is no money to buy it, everyone is willing to watch it on the side.

"Is it really delicious?" Yao Qingqing bit her fingers and looked yearning.

"I've never heard anything like this, you don't lie to Qingqing, the child's world is very simple, if you lie to her, she will take it seriously, look forward to it, be disappointed, and be sad. Zhong He's indifferent face showed dissatisfaction, and it was only fleeting, and she rarely showed her emotions to people other than Yao Qingqing, because she didn't care.

Yao Qingqing was very disappointed, Sister Zhong knew a lot, she said that if there is no, it must be nothing, but Yao Qingqing really wants to eat candy that is light and soft like cotton, "Brother, is there really nothing?"

"Of course there is, when did my brother lie to you. Su Chengye swore solemnly.

"You always lied to me before, and even cheated my father and mother out of the New Year's money I gave me. Yao Qingqing's face was innocent, pouting.

There is indeed this incident in my memory, and Su Chengye was very different from the past. Su Chengye was embarrassed and laughed a few times, "My brother also saw it from the book, I thought that Sufeng County was too young to have it, and there would be it in other places, but I didn't expect it to be ......"

"What is recorded in a book, why have I never seen it?" Zhong He did not relent, "I like to read since I was a child, I dare not say that I am rich in learning, I have read a lot of serious poetry history books and miscellaneous books, and I am born to never forget, I will definitely have an impression of what I have seen, but the marshmallow you said has no impression in my memory." ”

She is the life-saving benefactor of herself and Yao Qingqing, Su Chengye is not good at saying anything, she wants to pinch her nose and admit that she is making nonsense, and when she sees Yao Qingqing's expectant gaze, the man sandwiched between the two women is very entangled.

"Recently, I was studying an ancient book, which recorded many strange things, including marshmallows, which looked like cotton up close, and looked like clouds from afar, which was very beautiful, smelling a strange sweet fragrance, licking the tip of the tongue and showing sweetness, not only children, but also many adults couldn't put it down. ”

Yao Qingqing's little mind put Zhong He's extensive knowledge behind, regained hope, and clutched his clothes tightly, "Is it true, where can I eat it, can my brother take me to buy it?"

"Which ancient book, can you lend me a long insight? I don't have any other hobbies, I just like to read and make things fresh. Zhong He didn't let him go, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, even a child lied, and he must expose his lies in front of Qingqing.

Putting down Yao Qingqing in his arms, touching her head and telling her that he would be back soon, Yao Qingqing reluctantly let go of his hand and watched him leave with wide eyes, as if he would disappear in the blink of an eye.

Su Chengye went to the study to get the "cheats" he bought with a lot of money and handed it to Zhong He, who looked at it casually, and the sneer on the corner of his mouth was even stronger. Su Chengye didn't care, he had expected to be seen through by the other party, and hugged Yao Qingqing, who was relieved to see him come back, into his arms again, "My brother has been studying this book recently, and I have learned a lot from the book, marshmallow is just one of them, and there are many interesting and novel things, and my brother will tell you slowly in the future." ”

"Are they all eaten?" Yao Qingqing looked at the "secret book" in Zhong He's hand with blue eyes, and it seemed that something delicious would jump out of it at any time.

"No, but there's a lot of good food. ”

"That, like marshmallows, can only be seen in books, can't you eat them?" Yao Qingqing couldn't forget the delicious and beautiful marshmallows, and she was about to drool.

Such a snack will grow round in the future, Su Chengye pinched her nose, "Who said that marshmallows can't be eaten, no one sells them, but we can make them ourselves, and when my brother's health is better, we will make marshmallows for you to eat." ”

The principle of making marshmallows is very simple, first dissolve the sucrose into syrup, and then throw the syrup out from the small hole through centrifugal movement, and the filament-like syrup quickly cools down into "cotton silk", and then twists it with a bamboo skewer a few times to become a marshmallow.

The only thing that can be called difficult is to throw out the small holes of the syrup, which must be very small, and only a sufficiently fine syrup shreds can instantly cool down into "cotton shreds".

"Brother, you must get better quickly. ”

Zhong He didn't refute him again, and touched Yao Qingqing, "Qingqing, is it okay to go back to the county with my sister to study?"

Yao Qingqing was very hesitant, she wanted to go back to the county school to continue studying, but her brother was not well and needed someone to take care of her, what if he fainted again.

"Let's go with Sister Zhong, go back to the county school and study hard, and my brother will make you marshmallows at home, and you can eat them next time you go home." Su Chengye wanted her to go to the county school, because he had no ability to protect her, as long as the other party was still thinking about the ten acres of spiritual land, Liu Chi would come to the door again sooner or later.

Yao Qingqing left with Zhong He, and before leaving, Zhong He left him a warning, "Think about Qingqing's forehead injury, she has suffered a great grievance but wants to swallow it in her stomach and refuses to say it, for whom, don't you feel guilty? No matter what you have done or what you want to do, touch your conscience, it is best not to implicate Qingqing again." ”
