selling cakes

Chapter 14

Xiao Ning held Shen Yunjie in his arms and stayed up all night, fed water and medicine, changed the handkerchief.As dawn approached, Shen Yunjie's forehead was not so hot, and his breathing gradually calmed down.

The small door of the Nuan Pavilion was quietly pushed open. After waking up, Xiao Yuan rubbed his eyes and was about to call Daddy. When he looked up and saw the fierce uncle sitting beside his father's bed, he was so frightened that he hurriedly closed the small door tightly.Xiao Ning got up and pushed the door open again with one hand, and pulled out Xiao Yuan who was hiding behind the door with the other: "What are you hiding?"

Xiao Yuan whimpered and backed away, eagerly turned his head to call his father, but before he could speak, his mouth was covered by the super fierce uncle. "Don't call you daddy." Xiao Ning weighed Xiao Yuan into his arms and carried him downstairs.A small bench was placed in the yard, and he pressed Xiao Yuan on the small bench, and fetched a basin of water to wash the child's face.

Xiao Yuan was pressed by Xiao Ning's neck to wash his face, and his big hands wiped his small face over and over again, causing him to choke and stick out his tongue. "Uncle..." Xiao Yuan's long eyelashes were covered with drops of water, and he kept rubbing them with his small hands.Xiao Ning took a handkerchief and wiped his face clean, flicked Xiao Yuan's forehead with his fingers: "Who told you to call you uncle."

Xiao Yuan was at a loss, not knowing what to call it.Xiao Ning held down the small head under the palm, combed Xiao Yuan's hair, and carefully tied two small hair.

"All right."

Xiao Yuan jumped two steps, Xiao Jiaoer dispersed, and he sat obediently in front of Xiao Ning again, waiting for his uncle to tie his head.Xiao Ning had no choice but to tie it again, this time Xiao Yuan didn't dare to jump, and walked obediently behind Xiao Ning holding Xiao Ning's clothes.

"What do you want to eat?" Xiao Ning carried Xiao Yuan into the room.

Xiao Yuan thought for a while, then whispered: "Candied haws."

Xiao Ning nodded, and handed him a big cake: "Eat it, stay at home obediently and don't run around. Your father is sick and needs to rest, be obedient and don't make trouble with him."

Xiao Yuan nodded while holding a pie that was bigger than her face.

Xiao Ning just went out. He first went to the Sanyuan Building on South Street. When he came out, he carried a food box, and went to the East Street to buy candied haws. On the way back, he stopped by Linjie Hutong.At the corner of the alley, a man was squatting there, with a piece of clothes draped over his shoulders, his long hair tied up in a mess, with a weed in his mouth, and he was banging on the door frame.

"Old Zhou." Xiao Ning called out.

The overly slovenly old Zhou Wensheng raised his head, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Yo, are you really here to help me repair the door frame?"

Xiao Ning raised his eyebrows, and threw the small jar of wine in his hand: "No time, he should wake up, I have to go home."

Lao Zhou reached out to catch it, opened the seal and said with satisfaction immediately, "The flower carving in Sanyuan Building?"

"En, thank you." Xiao Ning waved his hand and strode away.

When Shen Yunjie was still awake when he got home, Xiao Ning changed his sweat-soaked undershirt, and went downstairs to decoct the medicine on a small stove.After finishing these, the biscuit shop opened.He was kneading the dough here, while Xiao Yuan sat on the threshold and gnawed candied haws with his head tilted, and turned his head to look at Xiao Ning after he gnawed.

After a while, Xiao Ning felt the hem of his clothes tighten, and looked down to see Xiao Yuan looking up at him, with the last two candied haws on the bamboo stick in his hand.

"What's the matter? Isn't it delicious?" Xiao Ning squatted down and asked him.

Xiao Yuan shook his head, pointed to the two candied haws in his hand and said, "This is for Uncle, and this is for Daddy."

Xiao Ning was stunned for a moment, his eyes softened, he stretched out his hand and pinched Xiao Yuan's face: "I told you not to call me uncle."

Xiao Yuan blinked her round eyes: "What's that called?"

Before Xiao Ning could open his mouth, he heard a crisp question from outside. "Brother Xiao Ning, whose family's child is this?" Xiao Ning looked up, and there was a girl standing outside the door, neatly tidied up, holding a wicker basket in her hand, smiling with almond eyes.Xiao Ning knows this girl who often comes to buy cakes, her name is Xiaocui.

"My family." Xiao Ning patted the biscuits in his hand, without hesitation.
