Chapter 3882 Barefoot
"Thank you, big brother."
The child said loudly.
A bright smile on his face.
……
"You're welcome."
Xiao Xiao quirked his eyebrows.
……
The woman walked forward with the child.
"Baby, have you decided what you want grandpa to do?"
……
"Well..."
The child suddenly looked confused.
He poked his cheek.
"I have a lot of things I want..."
"Mom, can I only do one?"
"Can I have a few more?"
……
"No way."
The woman shook her finger.
"Only one."
"Baby, think about what you want most?"
……
Xiao Xiao smiled.
He turned his face slightly.
"What kind of candy man does Pipa Ghost like?"
……
The Pipa Ghost raised the Pipa in his arms.
Xiao Xiao suddenly understood.
Do you want a candy man who looks like a lute?
As expected, it was Pipa Ghost's choice.
……
"Be careful."
Xiao Xiao reached out to support the child who was about to fall.
……
The child was not happy that he had escaped, but looked anxious.
"My-"
The child's words stopped abruptly.
……
Xiao Xiao's other hand slightly shook the candy man in his hand.
"Your sugar man."
……
The child blinked.
Then he opened his mouth and showed a big smile.
He reached out and took the candy man from his elder brother's hand.
"Thank you, big brother!"
……
"Thank you, young man."
The child's grandmother who arrived smiled gratefully at Xiao Xiao.
The scene just now scared her so much that she almost had a heart attack.
……
"You're welcome."
Xiao Xiao smiled and shook his head.
……
Grandma left with her grandson.
The grandson held the lost candy man, held his grandma's hand, and jumped up and down.
Overflowing with obvious happiness.
There was a gentle smile on grandma's side face.
……
Xiao Xiao smiled and looked away.
……
Children come and go.
Finally, Xiao Xiao was the only one left in front of the old man.
Xiao Xiao stepped forward.
……
The old man who made the candy man smiled at the young man.
"Young man, I've been waiting for a long time."
He noticed this young man.
The height of this young man is remarkable.
Also, he also saw the young man's care for the child.
Therefore, he had a good impression of this young man.
When he was still very old, he still came out to be a candy man.
In addition to not wanting to waste my craft, being idle is also idle...
Another reason is that he likes children.
He likes the way the children surround him with their eyes shining brightly.
I love the joy on the child’s face when he takes the candy man.
I like the proud expressions on the children’s faces when they hold the candy figures to show off to others.
……
He likes children's pure and straightforward expression of emotion.
It made him feel relaxed and comfortable.
……
He likes people who are good to children.
He knew it wasn't absolute.
But most people who are good to children have a kind and gentle heart.
……
"What kind of candy do you want?"
The old man asked the young man in front of him.
He didn't chat much with the young man.
This young man has been waiting for a long time.
He didn't want to keep the young man waiting any longer.
……
"Old man, I want to make two candy men."
Xiao Xiao smiled.
……
"Okay."
The old man nodded cheerfully.
"伱说."
"What do you want?"
"Don't say two, you can have more."
……
Xiao Xiao curled his mouth.
"First..."
"I want a candy man who looks like a lute."
……
Pipa Ghost suddenly turned to look at Master Xiao Xiao.
Hey...
Mr. Xiao Xiao is...
……
"Pipa?"
The old man was stunned.
Then he smiled sheepishly, "Young man." "I know Pipa."
"But what the pipa looks like... I don't know much about it."
This has to be done...
It’s a bit difficult for the elderly.
……
"Wait a moment."
Xiao Xiao took out his mobile phone.
……
Soon, Xiao Xiao turned the phone screen to the old man.
"Look."
"That's it."
"Can you do this?"
……
The old man narrowed his eyes slightly.
Xiao Xiao, who noticed this, brought the phone closer to the old man.
……
The old man nodded uncertainly.
"It should be possible."
"I'll give it a try."
The old man's hands moved.
….
During the process, the old man looked up at his phone from time to time.
……
Xiao Xiao's hand was very steady.
He said nothing.
Watching the old man's movements quietly.
His eyes dropped slightly.
Pipa Ghost looked intently at the candy man that was gradually taking shape in the old man's hand.
It's an all-too-familiar look.
Pipa Ghost's eyes were astonishingly bright.
……
"Okay."
The old man looked at the candy man in his hand, and then looked at the pictures on the young man's phone.
The old man nodded with satisfaction.
good.
He looks quite similar-
No.
It's exactly the same.
……
He handed the candy man in his hand to the young man opposite.
"Here, young man."
"Are you satisfied?"
"My first time making Pipa..."
Before this, although he had received various requests...
But Pipa... it's really the first time.
Although he made it according to the picture that the young man found for him, after all, he had never seen a real Pipa, and he didn't know if the result was biased...
……
Xiao Xiao took the candy man.
He turned the candy man in his hand slightly.
After noticing the look in the eyes of the Pipa Ghost who was following the candy man, Xiao Xiao's face showed a smile.
"Satisfied."
"Master, you did a good job."
……
"Really?"
The old man breathed a sigh of relief.
The corners of his mouth widened.
"That's good."
The old man smiled happily.
"Come."
"Young man, what else do you want for a candy man?"
……
"What I still want..."
Xiao Xiao lowered his eyes slightly.
Pipa Ghost was staring at the candy man in his hand with sparkling eyes.
"It's a candy man in human form."
……
"Humanoid?"
The old man was slightly startled.
Then he smiled with some understanding.
Different from the Pipa just now, the humanoid Candy Man does a lot of things.
"What does it look like?"
The old man asked in a familiar manner.
"Do you have any photos?"
……
"No."
Xiao Xiao shook his head.
……
The old man didn't care about the answer either.
He has encountered similar situations.
"Then can you describe to me what he looks like?"
……
"Okay."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
"He is a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old..."
……
Why?
The old man was a little surprised.
"Young man?"
He thought the young man was bringing a candy man back to his girlfriend.
After all, there are many young couples coming to his place.
The people who want to make humanoid sugar figures are basically lovers.
Children all like animals or various cartoon characters.
So he thought this young man also wanted to give his girlfriend a surprise...
……
"Yeah."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
"It's a friend of mine."
……
"Oh."
The old man nodded.
The movements of his hands continued.
……
"...he is thin and pale...barefoot..."
Xiao Xiao slowly described.
……
"Barefoot?"
The old man paused.
……
"Yeah."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
"Just no shoes."
