Since it will appear frequently in the future, it makes sense to come and observe.
As for him feeling strange, is that not strange?
Among all the people in this area, that woman's family was the most special.
Gossip is the key to bringing aunts closer together.
Mai Fan asked, and my aunt answered energetically.
It's just that when he answered, he was mysterious, and the expression on his face was so weird.
"You know, she was originally a maid in the palace. After she came out, she got married."
"The man she married was her counterpart in the palace, a eunuch."
Mai Fan had known this for a long time, but his face reflected a shocked expression.
Seeing that Mai Fan was so frightened that he couldn't close his mouth, the aunt became even more proud.
"You don't know, these two children are definitely not hers."
"That was given to the eunuch as his godson by the nephew of the great eunuch's family."
"This woman is also pitiful. Her family is gone and she can only rely on the eunuch to live."
"But you also know how angry the servants in the palace usually have to endure."
"When I got home, I finally had no one to make him angry with."
"Where is he going to vent his anger?"
"These two children are the eunuch's lifeblood. They are raised as his own sons."
"What's left is this poor woman who has become a punch bag."
"Don't look at her. She is still dressed neatly. I did laundry with her last time."
"The sleeves are densely covered with needle holes and bruises."
"Don't think about it, it must be the eunuch who did it."
"This palace maid can endure it. When she came back, I didn't even see her shouting at all."
"No one sympathizes with her, but sympathy is useless."
"I don't even want to think about it. Eunuch, I heard that he is someone who is close to the empress who is favored in the palace."
"Who can offend that kind of person?"
"How dare we, ordinary people, cause such trouble?"
"Thanks to this eunuch, I won't be able to come back for more than a few days a month."
"The days will pass if I endure them."
"You see her frowning today, that's because counting the days, the eunuch will be back in the next two days."
"You have to remember, if you see a richly dressed man with a white face and no beard, he will be beaten here."
"But stay far away."
"Something or a word may have poked his lungs."
"If I want to argue with you, a kid like you is no match for me."
"Don't live a good life, because that old guy ruined your family."
Mai Fan nodded desperately.
This is why he appears here.
If this old guy is good, why do so many people want to kill him?
Even if it only requires him to die, it doesn't matter whether it was a killer or not.
This is the most purposeful employer Mai Fan has ever seen.
As long as the person dies, even if he is struck by lightning, the mission has been completed.
Mai Fan nodded when he thought of this, indicating that he had learned the lesson.
He made an agreement with his aunt that if he came over to do business, the other party would definitely come to support him, and then he left here.
It seems that the day for the eunuch to leave the palace is approaching.
He has to hurry up with his plan.
On the second day, there was an extra peddler in front of the house.
The salesman is a half-year-old boy with a sweet mouth, quick hands and feet, and he cleans up neatly.
The things he came to sell on his load were very interesting.
It is a twistable maltose.
It was golden and soft, and was kept warm by a small charcoal stove underneath.
If there is a little kid who is hungry for candy, he only needs two copper plates and can roll one here.
Just watch this kid use two small wooden sticks to twist and twist the maltose into a golden candy ball. He poked it with the two sticks and handed it to the child's hand.
Before these children eat the candy, they can use two sticks to pull it up and play with it before it cools down.
Or twist it into a twist, or pull out long white silk.
Or completely stretch the golden maltose into white hard icing.
All in all, it is a snack that can make people laugh out loud and be sweet to the heart.
This thing looks simple, but it is more novel than anything else.
The conditions at home for the children here are not bad enough to be stingy with these two cents.
Mai Fan's business here is actually quite good.
As expected, the aunt who was inquiring came over to take care of his business.
Mai Fan reciprocated by giving free maltose to his aunt's children.
After going back and forth, he became a familiar face.
In addition, he was quite thick-skinned, so he actually sold candy to the woman's two children when she went out.
But when eating, the two children licked it, and the woman refused to eat.
Mai Fan looked for an opportunity and saw that there was only the bottom of the sugar in the bucket.
When the woman passed by, he grabbed her and casually twisted the remaining sugar melon into a peanut-sized sugar melon and stuffed it into the woman's mouth.
In order to prevent my behavior from being so abrupt.
Mai Fan gave one to all the aunts who passed by here.
It's like clearing the bottom of one's own pot and taking a good sign that it's sold out.
After all the sweets were delivered, he left with his load.
The woman was very surprised at first.
Later, faint tears appeared in the corners of my eyes.
I wiped away my tears, then turned around and went home.
This Maifan still came here to sell it the next day.
By the third day, his maltose business was no longer as popular as it was at the beginning.
But he brought different rice krispie treats.
A long strip of rice krispie treats is slightly more expensive because of the addition of rice.
But it's still a matter of a few coppers, and these aunts are still very willing to support it.
I don’t know if the candy this time is in line with the woman’s taste or what.
She became Maifan's big customer.
Nearly half of the rice krispie treats were bought back by this aunt.
Mai Fan watched with his own eyes as she ate the one he gave as a gift, and then he carried the burden and walked back home with a smile on his face.
When he reached the intersection, Mai Fan saw the eunuch's sedan stopped here.
Probably because the palace's belongings could not be parked here, several young eunuchs carried the sedan back again.
The eunuch walked down this short 100-meter stone road.
When Mai Fan walked past the eunuch carrying his burden, he unconsciously tilted his burden and rubbed against the edge of the eunuch's robe.
Mai Fan tried his best to look salesy.
This made the eunuch very disgusted.
"You want me to put something as vulgar as rice krispie treats in my mouth?"
"What I hate most in my life is eating things that stick to my teeth."
Because the eunuch didn't like Mai Fan, he really didn't like him.
