Daddy Academy

Chapter 2677 Making a Clay Figure

Liuliu was really generous in treating us. If Zhang Tan hadn't reminded us, the little guy would have spent all his 500 yuan on one meal.

The meal was almost over and the kids couldn’t eat anymore, but Liuliu still wanted to order ten skewers of grilled corn kernels for everyone.

"No, no, Liuliu, don't order anymore." Xiaomi advised, everyone was full.

"Liuliu, look, I'm full. My little belly is bulging." Xiao Xiaobai showed off his little belly and lifted up his clothes.

Xier also advised: "Don't order more Liuliu, we can't finish it."

"Then I'll also order duck for Dunzi's parents!" Liuliu said, and then she ordered another barbecue and packed it up to take to Dunzi's parents.

After spending the money and satisfying his craving, Liuliu finally stopped and went to pay the bill with the boss. The barbecue meal cost 230 yuan.

Zhang Tan asked, "Liuliu, let me pay the bill."

Liuliu waved her hand generously, asking Boss Zhang to walk away: "I have money, I said I will treat you."

She thought that Boss Zhang looked down on her. She had clearly said she would treat everyone, so how could he let others pay?

Zhang Tan smiled and said, "Okay, then you pay."

Liuliu paid the money in a very proud manner, and even called Dudu and Xiaoxiaobai along, saying that they were there to protect her so that she could escape if she encountered robbers who wanted to rob her money.

Xiao Xiaobai received the task and followed excitedly, holding his head high and chest out, with an extraordinary demeanor and a solemn expression. He kept looking around to beware of the bad guys lurking in the corner.

With Xiao Xiaobai around, no emotionless killer can get close!

Even if the killer gets close to us, we still have Dudu who is invincible in close combat!

After paying the money, the group strolled along the street, looking around everywhere. Dunzi and Xier took the packed barbecue and ran to the melon stall to deliver it to Dunzi's parents.

At this time, the sun had already set and night enveloped the small town in the mountains. All the street lamps were lit up and lights were flickering in every household. People had dinner and came out for a walk and chat. The small town seemed particularly lively.

"Xier--Xier! We are here!"

Xiaobai shouted behind him that Xier and Dunzi had come back. After delivering meals to Dunzi's parents, they immediately chased after them and caught up with the main group.

"We are here. Dunzi's parents are having dinner. They asked us to thank Liuliu." Xier said, "Liuliu - Liuliu! Dunzi's mother said thank you."

"Hahahaha~~~~" Liuliu laughed. Rich people are just good ducks.

Suddenly, her eyes turned to a girl walking towards her, or to be more precise, she was staring at a clay figure in the other person's hand.

"Huh? Where did her clay figurine come from?"

The other party didn't listen and just walked away.

"Over there—" Dudu pointed to a place not far ahead where someone was setting up a stall.

Several children immediately swarmed over to me and surrounded the small stall making clay figurines.

At this moment, there was a little kid, led by his father, asking the boss to make clay figures for him.

The child’s father said that he would make a clay figure like his daughter.

"May I?"

He was obviously a little worried that the stall owner would not be able to make it. After all, this is a test of observation ability and technique.

But the stall owner just glanced at the little girl and said it was okay, and then he started to work on the clay figurine. While he was shaping the clay figurine, he kept looking up at the little girl in front of him.

At this time, Xiaobai and others also noticed the special thing about the stall owner.

"He has no fingers~" Xier said in a low voice.

"Where did his finger go?" Xiao Xiaobai's tone and expression were full of sympathy.

"Shh - keep your voice down and don't say any more. If others hear it, they will be very sad and it's not polite." Xiaobai said.

Everyone nodded. They were originally just curious and wanted to see the clay figurines being made, but out of some kind of sympathy, they decided to stay and see how the stall owner without fingers made the clay figurines.

Making clay figures is a delicate and technical job, and without fingers the difficulty is doubled.

The palms of the stall owner's hands were completely gone, leaving only bare wrists.

However, the lack of fingers seemed to have no effect on the stall owner. He flexibly pinched various shapes and then put them together. After just a few minutes, a lifelike little clay figurine appeared in his hand, which triggered bursts of exclamations from the children.

The little girl happily took her own clay figurine, thanked the stall owner, and left with her father.

"Let's make one too." Xiaobai stepped forward and said.

She felt that the uncle's life must not be easy. Without hands, life must be very inconvenient and he couldn't do a job, so he could only set up a stall to make clay figures.

"What do you want to make?" asked the stall owner.

Xiao Bai thought about it, grabbed Xiao Xiao Bai who was watching the fun, and said, "Pinch her."

Xiao Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, then he became crazy with joy: "Pinch me!"

Immediately, her face was pinched by more than one person.

Xiao Xiaobai quickly covered his face and said angrily, "That's too much, you guys are going too far~ I'm going to be unhappy."

When the stall owner saw this, he smiled and said it was no problem and pinched the child.

Under the gaze of the crowd, the stall owner began to knead the clay figure. The head, eyes, nose and mouth appeared...

Everyone was very happy.

As more and more details emerged, a mini version of Xiao Xiaobai appeared in front of everyone.

I saw this little clay figure puffing up its cheeks, widening its eyes, and looking fierce, as if it was unhappy and angry.

It was exactly the same look on Xiao Xiaobai's face when he said something harsh after being pinched by everyone.

"Hahahahaha~~~It's like you, Xiao Xiaobai, it's like you——" Liuliu laughed.

"It's Xiao Xiaobai's unhappy look, so cute~" Xier also praised it highly.

Xiaobai was also amazed and immediately asked the stall owner to write the name "Robin" on the clay figure.

When Robin saw the clay figure, he instantly forgot his previous unhappiness and became extremely happy. He held the clay figure in both hands, fearing that he would break it if he used too much force.

"Do you like it?" Xiaobai asked her.

Xiao Xiaobai's big eyes sparkled, "I like it! Thank you, auntie!"

Xiao Bai waved his hand: "No need to thank me, I didn't say I wanted to treat you."

"Clam?"

Xiao Xiaobai, who was just happy, was suddenly stunned, with a face full of question marks.

Xiao Bai laughed: "I'm just teasing you. Of course, this is a gift from your aunt. Anyone else wants to pinch it? Cheng Cheng, you can pinch one too."

Cheng Cheng was invited to come forward. She sat on a stool, and her every frown and smile was very dignified.

The stall owner observed her skillfully while moving his wrist quickly.

Cheng Cheng's hair and eyebrows have grown out, and they already look somewhat similar.

When the entire clay figure of Cheng Cheng appeared, everyone praised the stall owner's excellent craftsmanship and said that he made Cheng Cheng look so much like him.

Xiaobai and the others were still reluctant to leave, so she came to Old Man Zhang and said she had something to say to him.

Zhang Tan asked, "What are you talking about?"

Xiao Bai looked back at the stall owner who was surrounded by her girlfriends and said, "Old man, this uncle has no hands. It's not easy for him. Can we ask him to make a few more clay figures? Let him make more money."

Zhang Tan asked, "Do you sympathize with him?"

Xiao Bai nodded and said, "We can help him. Old man, how much money do you have in your pocket? Take it out and let us see."

As he said that, he reached out to search Old Man Zhang's trouser pocket. Zhang Tan quickly said, "Don't search, don't search, I'll take it out myself."

He took out his wallet, which contained one thousand cash.

"You want both?"

Xiaobai did not answer, but turned around and counted how many people there were in their group of girlfriends.

Including Dunzi, there are eight people in total.

She was a little embarrassed, but still asked: "Old man, there are eight of us. Can I ask that uncle to make eight clay figures for me?"

Zhang sighed and said, "No problem, just make eight."

Xiao Bai said, "How about we give 400 yuan? 50 yuan for a clay figurine."

Zhang sighed and said, "If you think it's okay, then it's okay."

Xiao Bai asked uncertainly: "Do you think fifty yuan is expensive?"

After all, the girl made a clay figure and was given twenty yuan.

Zhang sighed and said, "If we only consider the price of the materials for the clay figurine, it is definitely not worth fifty yuan. However, the boss's skills and love for life are included in it, so it becomes very valuable. It depends on how you understand it."

Xiao Bai waved his hand generously: "Then give me 400 yuan, old man. I won't buy anything in Baijia Village to save you money."
