Liu Sihan was immediately attracted by the strangely shaped sugar figures.

Especially when he saw a little girl licking a small candy man with relish, he stopped in his tracks, licked his lips unconsciously, and his eyes were filled with longing as he saw the little girl licking the candy man happily.

He imagined the feeling of the sugar man in his mouth.

Liu Siyu didn't notice any of this, her eyes were looking for a restaurant in the bustling street.

"What are you looking at? If you want to eat something, ask your family to buy it for you."

A shrill voice brought Liu Siyu back to her senses. She looked up and saw an old woman protecting a little girl and walking away quickly.

There happened to be a small stall selling candy figures in front of me, and I immediately understood what my brother was thinking.

He patted Sihan's shoulder gently.

"Do you want to eat the little sugar man?"

Liu Sihan's face instantly turned red with shame and she quickly shook her head.

Liu Siyu felt a little sour in her nose. At an age when she should be playing coquettishly in her parents' arms, she had to bear the hardships of life.

It is said that children from poor families grow up early. If given a choice, who would like to be the one to grow up early?

"Uncle, how much is the little sugar man?"

The man selling candy figures glanced at the brother and sister, then pointed at the simple-looking ones and said, "These are two cents each."

Liu Siyu understood what the old man selling candy figures meant. For a child from a poor family, it was enough to buy a two-cent candy mouth. There was no need to spend an extra cent to buy the pretty one.

Indeed, they can't even get enough food to eat, so there is no need to put on airs.

He reached out and took out two cents, "Give me one."

Liu Sihan's eyes turned red as he held the little sugar man. It had been so many years since he had been treated like a child.

She pulled the corners of her mouth hard and handed the candy man to Liu Siyu, "Sister, you eat first."

Liu Siyu smiled and shook her head, "I'm already a grown-up, people will laugh at me if I eat candy."

Liu Sihan was very persistent, "If my sister doesn't want to eat, I won't eat either."

Looking at the little sugar man and then at the stubborn Liu Sihan, a warm feeling crept into Liu Siyu's heart.

Liu Sihan always manages to add a touch of sweetness to her heart unintentionally.

The resentment brought about by time travel was also gradually eliminated.

He took a small bite and handed it to Liu Sihan.

Under her sister's expectant eyes, Liu Sihan also took a small bite and was instantly stunned by the sweet taste.

"Sister, this little sugar man is so sweet!"

Liu Siyu smiled and tapped Sihan's forehead, "Silly boy, if it's not sweet, then it's still called candy."

Hearing the word "fool", Liu Sihan felt her heart sweeter than sugar.

The embarrassment and uneasiness disappeared without a trace. As long as my sister was around, there was always more sweetness than bitterness.

There is only one main street in the town. Liu Siyu looked around and saw two restaurants.

The largest one is Qingfeng Tower, so I decided to try my luck there first.

The restaurant is a two-story building with a particularly grand decoration, which stands out in this small town.

It was not time for dinner, so only one door of the restaurant was open and a waiter was cleaning inside.

Liu Siyu secretly mustered up her courage, stepped into the restaurant, and saw the cleaning boy and politely said, "Hello, young man. Is your boss here?"

The guy looked up and saw the two men wearing tattered clothes and carrying a small backpack. He thought they were ignorant beggars begging for food so early in the morning.

His brows were slightly furrowed in disgust.

Immediately, his face turned cold and he pushed her, saying, "Get out! Not everyone can enter Qingfeng Tower."

He spat fiercely as he spoke, "What bad luck."

Liu Sihan lowered his head in shame, his face flushed with embarrassment.

With his hands tightly grasping the patched corners of his torn clothes, he knew that he was poor and some people in the village laughed at them, but no one had ever said it so bluntly to their faces.

This made Liu Sihan, who was always sensitive, feel like digging a hole in the ground and crawling into it.

Liu Siyu patted her embarrassed brother comfortingly, hoping that he would not be frightened.

It was indeed very rude to suddenly go door-to-door to sell goods. Liu Siyu also understood that the world is fickle and people like to flatter the powerful and look down on the weak.

But being pushed like this still made him feel extremely embarrassed, and his thin eyebrows couldn't help but frown.

Especially the arrogant face of the waiter, which hurt Liu Siyu's heart, but they came here to sell things, and they couldn't be kicked out without saying a word.

"Since we have entered Qingfeng Tower, we naturally understand that this is not a place to beg for food. We have goods to sell. Please let your shopkeeper know."

When the guy heard that Liu Siyu was here to sell things, he looked her up and down with contempt.

After a long while, he pouted and said, "Humph, you come here to sell things, but you don't even know what kind of place our Qingfeng Tower is. With your rags and rags, how can you possibly have what our shopkeeper wants?"

Liu Siyu didn't want to cause trouble, and since she had no power or influence, she wanted to just endure it.

But the boy was really a snob and he felt uncomfortable if he didn't make some sarcastic remarks.

"I guess you are doing this to ruin the owner's restaurant."

The young man's face changed when he heard this.

"What are you talking about? The shopkeeper is my dear second master, and this is our family business."

Liu Siyu sneered, "Your family is really blind to choose a blind person like you to be the face of the family."

"A restaurant relies on fresh ingredients to attract customers, but you chase away the source of income. Isn't this seriously cutting off the restaurant's source of income?"

"As the saying goes, harmony is the most important thing in business, and money comes from all directions. You keep saying you're a poor beggar, so how do you know I can't provide the fresh ingredients your boss wants?"

"Your restaurant is not the only one in this town. You are not only blocking the restaurant's source of income, but also providing an opportunity for your competitors. I think you are probably a spy sent by your competitors."

The young man was speechless after Liu Siyu's scolding.

Especially the last sentence, that it was a spy sent by a competitor, the young man couldn't help but shiver when he heard it.

He was just about to open his mouth to scold the two of them, but Liu Siyu didn't give him a chance at all. After that, he pulled Liu Sihan and ran away.

Liu Sihan was completely dazed, but his admiration for Liu Siyu deepened.

After leaving Qingfeng Tower, Liu Siyu felt a little melancholy. She had just satisfied her craving for food, but she also completely offended Qingfeng Tower.

There were only two restaurants in the town. One had already ended her hopes, and the other might not buy her wild boar meat.

But she had to try it anyway. She really didn't want to go to the open-air market and bargain for each piece of meat. What's more, not everyone who went to the open-air market could afford her wild boar meat.

After planning for a while, I finally mustered up the courage to step into (Cha Xiang Ji).

There was also a cleaning boy who was there. When he saw the two men coming in with bamboo baskets on their backs, he was surprised but still went up to them and asked.

"Is there something that brings you here so early in the morning?"

Liu Siyu felt relieved when she saw that the young man did not have a bad attitude towards them because of their shabby clothes.

He smiled and said, "Hello, little brother. Is your shopkeeper here?"

The young man frowned and took a quick look at Liu Siyu and her brother.
