140 Nice, Delicious, Not Greasy
Gu Yundong could not take it anymore. She quickly took one out of her hat and gave it to her.
"You can't eat too much sugar, or your teeth will rot. In the future, you won't be able to eat braised pork, rabbit meat, or chicken."
The little girl swallowed her saliva and looked at the lollipop eagerly. "Then I, then I…"
She couldn't finish the rest of the sentence.
Gu Yundong smiled. "How about this? I'll keep the candy for now. I'll give you one a day, okay?"
As she spoke, she looked at the other children. "You too. You can't eat too much sugar. In the future, take one every day to develop a habit. Otherwise, if I make all kinds of sugar in the future, you won't be able to keep your teeth."
Gu Yunshu's eyes lit up. "Eldest Sister wants to make all kinds of sugar?"
Niu Dan and the others' focus was on another thing. "Can we eat candy every day?"
This was a very extravagant thing. Sugar was very precious. Niu Dan's family rarely bought it. Even if they did, they could only eat it during the new year and festival. It was usually hidden well.
Gu Yundong nodded. "I just made this candy. Try it and see if it tastes good. I'll try another type of candy tomorrow."
Only then did the children start to carefully eat the beautiful and cute lollipop in front of them.
Gu Yundong had made several molds before. They were all simple ones. Some were square, some were round, some were heart-shaped, and some were pentagrams. There were almost all of them, and they looked very likable.
In fact, if she really started, she could even make models of various small animals.
"Yes, it's delicious. It's sweet and fragrant. It tastes like pears." Gu Yunshu was the first to speak. His eyes were shining.
Niu Dan also nodded vigorously. Previously, he had licked it for the first time and didn't think about it carefully. This time, after eating it, he was so excited that his body was trembling. "Sister Yundong, did you really make this? It's even better than what I used to eat. This isn't greasy at all, and it doesn't stick to my teeth."
Zeng Yue also said, "Sister Yundong, if we sell this, it will definitely be sold out in an instant."
This was what Gu Yundong wanted. "Do you all think so?"
"It's good-looking, delicious, and not greasy." Zeng Jia was the oldest among the children. Zeng Hu, who had always been taken care of next door, was also quiet. It was rare for him to express his opinion.
As for the two youngest and oldest, Zeng Le, Gu Yunke, and Madam Yang, they could not be bothered to speak. They ate happily.
Gu Yundong was in a good mood. She took out a few more lollipops and handed them to Gu Yunshu. "Take them to the next room for your Uncle Zeng and Brother Shao. Go."
Then, she gave one to Madam Dong and ate the other.
Gu Yunke looked on helplessly as she ate. Her gaze was extremely pitiful.
Gu Yundong was amused by her. "Don't worry, there will definitely be one a day. If you perform well, Eldest Sister will reward you with one more."
With that, she went into the kitchen.
Because the sweets she made had received the unanimous approval of Shao Qingyuan and the others, Gu Yundong became confident about what she had to do next.
At night, she lay in bed and thought about her future development. When she earned money, it would be much simpler to look for Gu Dajiang or treat Madam Yang.
The next morning, Gu Yundong put on the carriage and went out.
Unexpectedly, when she left the courtyard, she saw that Shao Qingyuan was already waiting there.
"Young Master Liu hasn't given me the money. I'll go to the county city too."
"This is a big deal. Come up then."
The two of them went to the Liu residence together. Unexpectedly, when they reached the entrance, Liu Wei was already waiting outside.
