Chapter 449 Sugar

"Don't worry, Uncle Wang, we'll send it later. You make us a cabinet, there's no reason for you to add more things." Gu Zian said.

When he got home, Gu Zian frowned slightly.

The Gu family is not a carpenter, who would put varnish in the house in an ordinary family!

Not to mention the varnish, even the vermilion lacquer was gone. What Gu Changping bought when building the house back then had already been used up.

After so many years, the color of the door of the Gu family has also dimmed, but it has never been repainted.

When food and clothing are problems, if they still have the mind to paint the gate, they will be discussed.

"If the snow outside melts, I can go to the town to buy some." Xu Yibai sighed.

The snow outside is very thick, even in places where people often walk, the snow has been trampled hard, and it is not so easy to walk.

The main thing is to walk and slip. Originally, it took one or two hours to reach the town, but now it is estimated that it will take four hours to reach the town.

Walking all day to buy a can of paint doesn't feel like a good deal.

Hongdou thought for a while and said, "What's the point, anyway, we're not in a hurry to use it. We'll put it somewhere when it's ready. It's the same when we open it and buy it after the spring snow melts."

The two families live so close to each other, and Lao Wang would not be reluctant to ask him to help with painting when the time comes.

Besides, isn't it just painting, it should be quite simple.

The four of them had no other good ideas for the time being, and after hearing what Hongdou said, they agreed.

Who would have thought that Zhang Wang would come the next day.

This time Zhang Wang brought two taels of silver.

Hongdou was a little surprised, it was getting colder and colder, why is Zhang Wang's business getting better and better?
Zhang Wang didn't hide his secrets, so he told the reason with a smile.

"Country people are used to living frugally. Although this year's life has not been smooth, but by saving here and there, you can save a lot of money in a year. Seeing that the New Year is coming, I always want to add something to my family. Things. I can’t afford meat or anything, so I have to buy two pieces of candy for my child!”

When Zhang Wang mentioned sugar, Hong Dou remembered the malt peanut candy that Gu Changping made before, which looked a bit like the nougat in her previous life to her.

Each piece of candy was cut into a finger width and a half finger length, and it was not wrapped in fat, but wrapped in glutinous rice paper.

This kind of paper is not available in supermarkets, and Hongdou asked Zhang Wang to help buy it back.

Anyway, he always has to run back and forth, so it doesn't take much trouble to help bring it over, as long as she pays him some hard work.

Zhang Wang couldn't help swallowing when he saw a basket of sugar-like things wrapped in glutinous rice paper brought by Hongdou.

The people he just mentioned buy sugar, but in fact, most of them buy some white sugar or brown sugar, take it home to make water to drink, or squeeze a little bit into the child's mouth when the child is hungry.

Those who are richer or who love their children will buy more rock candy, and let the children eat it slowly in their mouths when they are free.

But how can those candies compare with this thing in front of me?!

Seeing that Zhang Wang just stared at the candy without saying a word, Hongdou simply picked up one, peeled off half of the outer candy wrapper, handed it to Zhang Wang, and said, "Although the candy is a bit weird, it's delicious, you Taste one and decide whether you want it or not."

Zhang Wang looked at the candy handed to him, swallowed his saliva, and then took it carefully.

He took a sip of it very cherished, and slowly tasted it in his mouth, but he wrapped the remaining candy as it was.
