147 Chapter 147: Sugar Figurine
For example, since Aunt Sun’s family found out that Qin Xiaoyao was collecting eggs, they would directly sell them to her.
Although it was at the market price, it was convenient for her to receive them since the seller delivered them to her doorstep.
Song Que glanced at Qin Xiaoyao and didn’t say anything else.
If they were not planning to leave Mountain Spring Town, it was indeed necessary to build a good relationship with their neighbors, wasn’t it?
Of course, the most important thing was not to offend the people nearby.
Otherwise, when the town fell into chaos, his family would be in a lot of trouble.
Qin Xiaoyao supported Song Que as they slowly walked forward, step by step.
After entering the bustling street, they looked around and pointed at this and that.
Qin Xiaoyao’s bright smile put Song Que in a very good mood.
All of a sudden, Qin Xiaoyao noticed a stall selling sugar figurines.
She quickly pulled Song Que over to buy sugar figurines.
When he saw that the stall was surrounded by children, Song Que did not want to go.
However, he couldn’t resist the woman’s strong pull and eventually arrived in front of the stall.
“Uncle, give me two sugar figurines. Make them according to our appearances!” Qin Xiaoyao replied quickly.
As she spoke, she took out the money.
The uncle who was selling the sugar figurines took the money with a smile. Seeing Qin Xiaoyao and Song Que’s intimate behavior, he guessed that they were husband and wife.
Although he was surprised that their appearances were somewhat incompatible, he didn’t think much about it.
“Alright. Mister, Missus, please wait a moment.”
After that, he began to extract the sugar mixture to make sugar figurines.
“Uncle, please make my husband first!” Qin Xiaoyao continued.
When she turned her head to look at Song Que, her eyes seemed to be sparkling.
“Hehe! Sure!” The uncle selling sugar figurines agreed with a smile.
Then, as he looked at Song Que, he began making the outline.
This old man had been selling sugar figurines for more than ten years since he learned how to make them. This was the first time he had seen such a good-looking husband.
As a result, the uncle selling sugar figurines put in extra effort when he drew the sugar figurine.
After a while, the sugar figurine was done.
Qin Xiaoyao held the sugar figurine that looked very similar to Song Que, and her face was all smiles.
“I’m taking this one. I’ll give you the one that looks like me when it comes out later!” she said to Song Que.
Song Que simply glanced at Qin Xiaoyao and did not say anything.
It was considered a tacit agreement.
Seeing that Song Que did not object, Qin Xiaoyao was delighted.
She held the sugar figurine in her hand and compared it to Song Que.
“It really does look like you! He has even drawn your expression, Hubby!”
Song Que glanced at the sugar figurine in Qin Xiaoyao’s hand and thought, “Which part of that thing looked like me?”
He was so much better looking in real life than that sugar figurine whose facial features couldn’t be discerned, alright?
However, despite his thoughts, the man couldn’t help but smile, betraying his good mood.
The uncle making sugar figurines continued to make sugar figurines with a big smile. From time to time, he would look up at Qin Xiaoyao to make sure that the new sugar figurine looked like her.
Before long, the new sugar figurine was ready.
Song Que took the sugar figurine from the uncle selling sugar figurines, and a smile appeared on his handsome face again.
He looked at the sugar figurine in his hand and said to Qin Xiaoyao, “Hah! It does indeed look like you.”
The figurine had a round face and was much bigger than the one of his likeness.
Qin Xiaoyao understood what Song Que was implying and glared at him.
As she helped Song Que along the way, she said, “In what way does it look like me? I’ve slimmed down a lot now.”
She estimated that she should still be around 170 pounds. However, she was 1.65 meters tall, which was considered tall in this era.
Right now, she could only be considered… er… muscular…
Song Que turned his head and glanced at the depressed Qin Xiaoyao, and the smile on his face grew wider.
“You’ve indeed slimmed down a lot.”
“However, if you slim down, you won’t be able to buy such a big sugar figurine in the future! Pfft…” The man couldn’t hold back his laughter this time.
Qin Xiaoyao’s face turned red.
Seeing Song Que laugh so outrageously and impudently, the little bit of gloominess in her heart quickly disappeared.
“What is there to be afraid of? If Hubby likes it, I can just buy one more in the future,” she retorted.
Hmph! Teasing her? She would show him who was teasing who!
She thought he didn’t like sweet food? Yet now, he was complaining that the sugar figurine would become smaller after she slimmed down?
“No, no… It’s a waste to buy more. Your husband only needs one.” Once again, Song Que was amused by Qin Xiaoyao’s aggrieved expression, and he smiled as he waved the sugar figurine in his hand.
He found that the sugar figurine was charmingly cute and was really exquisitely made.
Qin Xiaoyao’s heart thumped furiously when she heard this.
She was a little suspicious, wondering whether her attractive husband was taking the opportunity to confess to her.
“Hmph! You are the one who said this!” After saying this shyly, the woman did not dare to look at her husband again and continued to help Song Que walk forward.
When they reached a less crowded section, Qin Xiaoyao began to eat the sugar figurine in Song Que’s likeness.
Before eating, she even looked at it several times, almost as if she couldn’t bear to eat it.
Song Que’s situation was similar.
He didn’t like sweet food to begin with, and he felt that the sugar figurine in his hand had more ornamental value than edible value, so he really didn’t have the desire to eat it.
However, he also knew that this thing could only be kept for a few days.
Moreover, there was still that little glutton, Ye’er, at home, so there was no way he could keep this figurine from him.
Therefore, he still took a bite and started eating the sugar figurine with Qin Xiaoyao.
After that, the two of them ate sugar figurines and chatted as they went shopping together.
Song Que had stayed at home for a long time. In addition, in his previous life, he had only gone shopping in the street like this when he was young, so he quickly immersed himself in this freedom and joy.
Very soon, the two of them passed by a stall that sold jewelry.
Qin Xiaoyao simply glanced at it without any interest.
Song Que, however, really wanted to go and take a look.
He wanted to stop Qin Xiaoyao, but he stopped himself when he realized that he didn’t bring any money with him.
Forget it. There was still tomorrow anyway.
Tomorrow, he would bring some money with him when he went out.
At this moment, Song Que had not realized that he was no longer against going out.
He was even looking forward to going shopping tomorrow night.
After walking for a while, the two finally bumped into Madam Liu and the others who were coming back from shopping.
Song Ye was the first to notice the two.
Hey! There were also two sugar figurines that the two of them had not finished eating.
“Big Brother, Sister-in-law! You guys bought sugar figurines?” The little child looked at the remaining half of the sugar figurine in Song Que’s hand and could not take his eyes off it.
He also wanted to eat sugar figurines. When he saw them earlier, his older sister had promised to buy them for him.
However, their mother stopped her.
She said that they had already had dinner that night and were not allowed to spend money needlessly.
After that, he was a little depressed for a while.
Song Ye had almost forgotten about it after much difficulty, but then he saw Big Brother and Sister-in-law had bought sugar figurines.
Boo hoo hoo! He wanted to eat too.
Hearing Song Ye’s words, everyone immediately looked at the sugar figurines in the couple’s hands.
Song Que wanted to hide the remaining half of the sugar figurine in his hand.
How embarrassing…
Qin Xiaoyao didn’t think much of it. She even bent down and gazed at Song Ye with a big smile.
“Yup! Do you want to eat it too, Ye’er?” She reached out and stroked the little greedy kid’s face.
“I want!” The little child quickly yelled loudly.
Qin Xiaoyao was so amused she laughed.
“Alright! Sister-in-law will take you to buy some.” She straightened her body.
She then looked at the crowd and said, “One each!”
Song Yun and Wang Xiaomei’s faces lit up with joy.
Madam Liu frowned instead.
However, seeing that the children all wanted to eat, she didn’t stop them.
