When the Regent Princess kneeled, all the children in Beijing broke their knees.

Zhang Laosan, leaning on a small stick, walked to a stool on the side, sat down, took a few deep breaths, and then answered.

"Yes, what I carved are just some worthless little gadgets. If the girl likes them, I'll give two to her to play with." Zhang Laosan said with a smile.

"This wood was given to me by my neighbors. I am a useless person with nothing to do, so I carved it at home and gave it to the children."

"Children from poor families have nothing to play with, but this little wooden sculpture can keep them happy for a long time."

Zhang Laosan seemed to have not spoken to anyone for a long time, and his voice was a little hoarse, but as he looked at the rows of wood carvings, his eyes were somewhat fiery.

Jiang Yunchu walked closer, then turned around and asked, "Can I pick it up and have a look?"

The room was a little dark and she couldn't see clearly. Things seemed hazy but vivid.

"If you don't mind, you can pick a few for yourself. They are all worthless little things." Zhang Laosan laughed.

Jiang Yunchu thanked him, "Thank you. I have several children at home. I will buy some for them to play with."

She first picked up a wooden carved little rabbit. When she held it in her hand, she immediately felt the difference. It was polished to be round and smooth, without any edges or corners, and would not prick her hands.

Then she took the little rabbit, walked outside, and looked at it carefully under the scorching sun.

Not to mention, this little rabbit is so adorable and cute. Even its smiling eyes are so lifelike.

This……

The carving is amazing!

"Look at the carving, it's extraordinary." Back in the house, Jiang Yunchu smiled softly. He put the little rabbit in his hand and rubbed it twice.

Zhang Laosan, who had just lowered his head, suddenly raised it and looked at Jiang Yunchu's face.

I didn't see any familiar shadow on her face, so I felt relieved this time.

"Hey, I'm a useless guy, I just carve them for fun, there's nothing special about them, if the girl likes them, just take them." Zhang Laosan's smile was a little stiff, but he pretended to be indifferent.

If it weren't for Jiang Yunchu's keen observation, she might have ignored Zhang Laosan's vibrato due to her professional habits in her previous life.

"I'm also going home to give them to my children to play with. Can I take all of these away?" She squatted down and looked at Zhang Laosan.

Because of his disabled legs, the stool he sat on was very low.

She had to squat down so she could look him in the eye.

Zhang Laosan smiled reluctantly, "If the girl likes it, take it all."

"Don't worry, I'm not a talkative person. I'm just curious."

She took out thirty copper coins from her purse and handed it over.

Zhang Laosan quickly waved his hand and said, "These pieces of wood were picked up by neighbors and children. They are not valuable. You can just take them. I won't charge you."

Jiang Yunchu squatted on the ground, ignoring the dirt on her clothes. Seeing that Zhang Laosan didn't want to take the money, she put the copper coins directly on the table beside her. "The wood is not valuable, but the carving is valuable. Besides, I am giving it to my own child, so I, as a mother, have to buy it back."

After putting the copper coins away, he asked Shadow to collect all the wood carvings.

"Oh, girl, you must be anxious waiting." The lady ran in from outside.

Behind him were four or five women and the old man running the noodle stall.

"Come on, Zhang Laosan, you arrange the work and we will do it." The old lady spoke quickly and said directly to Zhang Laosan after entering the house.

Zhang Laosan looked at everyone and asked, "Why are you doing this?"

The greater his ability, the more copper coins he earned. For the sake of copper coins, he implicated all the neighbors for nothing.

"Third brother, look at what you are saying. Your father never said these things when he distributed food to us."

"That's right, among our neighbors, who hasn't received favors from your Zhang family?"

"Everyone has troubles, including us."

The old man came over and didn't say anything. He just patted Zhang Laosan on the shoulder and told him to relax.

Over the years, whenever the neighbors wanted to buy snacks for their children, they would come to buy candied haws, just to give Zhang Laosan some food. If he gave a little from this family and a little from that family, wouldn't he be able to survive?

"Thank you." At this point, Zhang Laosan couldn't say no.

Suddenly, the room became busy.

Jiang Yunchu watched everyone washing the hawthorns, removing the seeds, drying them in the sun, and stringing the hawthorns together.

Zhang Laosan washed his hands, cleaned the pot and tools, and boiled the syrup.

There is strength in numbers. With the help of these people, soon, fifty candied haws were coated with syrup and came out of the oven one by one.

"Girl, try it." The old lady looked at Jiang Yunchu expectantly.

Jiang Yunchu smiled and nodded. After seeing their production process, he felt relieved to feed the food to his children.

It tastes sweet, the syrup is crispy, and the hawthorn is sour. It is both appetizing and refreshing, with a full sweet and sour taste.

I have to say, this is the most delicious candied haws she has ever eaten.

"How is it? Do you still want those fifty?" The old lady asked a little embarrassedly. The main reason was that Zhang Laosan was having a hard time and they could only help so much. If the girl bought so many, Zhang Laosan's life would be better in the future.

Jiang Yunchu nodded and said, "Make all these hawthorns for me. I want as many as you can get."

There are many children in the family, and there are many young teachers in Ningguang Academy, and some are also sent from Kang Mansion.

She thought that Qingfeng Daru would also like such delicious candied haws. She didn’t know whether he had made a decision about what happened last time.

"Okay, okay, we'll do it right away." Everyone who was listening on the side became excited. No one was dissatisfied or unhappy.

Everyone was busy, doing what they were supposed to do and they were already familiar with it.

"Third brother, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and do something." The old man patted him on the side.

Zhang Laosan looked at Jiang Yunchu and said, "These can make more than a hundred skewers. I'm afraid Madam can't eat so much."

When the old lady heard this, she became anxious.

Everyone in the Zhang family has this problem. They can't bear to see others living a miserable life.

However, before the old lady could speak, Jiang Yunchu spoke first.

"It's okay. I have a large family. Next time I need candied haws, I'll ask my family to come directly to you."

"Okay, okay, okay, you can also go to my stall. As long as it doesn't rain or snow heavily, my stall is open all year round. There is no one in this North City who doesn't know about it."

Before Zhang Laosan could say anything, the old lady agreed readily.

During the most difficult days, her father-in-law fell ill and their family had no money. Finally, it was Zhang Laosan's father who hired a doctor for her father-in-law, who saved his life.

These are all favors, and she remembers them.

Although Mr. Zhang is no longer with us, Mr. Zhang is still here, so she naturally has to pay more attention to him.
