6. Chapter 6 Candied Haws

The little boy ignored his thoughts and couldn't wait to lead Dai Quan to the hawker selling candied haws, "I want three strings of this." He had never eaten this snack in his mansion and could not call out its name, so he could only use this instead.

"Okay, I'll give it to you!" Seeing that the little boy was wearing some silk clothes, the servants around him had white skin but were not angry at all. The most important thing was that they didn't have an Adam's apple. The vendor who had been in the capital for countless years naturally guessed which little prince was probably taken out by the eunuch to play. He hurriedly selected the three biggest and most popular strings of candied haws for him.

After taking three strings of candied haws, the little boy pulled a string and raised it high, "Uncle, you eat it too!" The eyes clearly stated that he would not let go if you didn't take it.

These three strings of candied haws, one string of them, one string of them, and one string of them to the uncle who was responsible for giving money.

Dai Quan was about to hand over a few cents to the vendor when he suddenly heard the little boy's uncle's voice. His hand shook, and a few Yongsheng Tongbao fell to the ground, making a few loud noises.

"You... little... young master, call me again." Dai Quan didn't care about the few pennies on the ground, and his eyes were filled with hope and desire to mix, and his voice was unstable, and there were even some broken sounds.

"Uncle." The little boy didn't understand why, but he still said obediently.

Dai Quan's eyes were wet, and tears appeared. He said with trembling relief: "Okay... OK."

He entered the palace at the age of four, and after entering the Shenzheng Department, he went on a knife and was lucky enough not to meet King Yan. After working as a low-level servant for several years, the third prince at that time was Qingyan and accepted as a close eunuch. He followed the third prince and watched him grow step by step, from the third prince to the prince Zhao, from the Zhao prince to the crown prince, and finally from the crown prince to the emperor. As the most valued eunuch around the third prince, bribery, curry favor with his concubines, princes, court officials, etc., it was like a crossing river, but Dai Quan did not say it on his face, but he knew in his heart that none of them looked down on him, and none of them regarded him as a human being, let alone a man, because he was a castrator.

In addition to being the eunuch who was the leader and eunuch beside Emperor Wen of Zhou, Dai Quan also held a privileged supervisory agency for him - Dongjishi Factory, abbreviated as Dongjian Factory. In addition to monitoring the every move of officials, even the movements of foreign tribes, the remarks of Qingliu, and the daily lives of the people were within the scope of reconnaissance.

Because of this, he knew that a Qingliu, who looked down on them, said to others, when he mentioned them, "It looks like a human body, looks like a human face, hears like a human voice, and observes like a human being." They are bloated and curved, as if they have gall knots, and their noses are whistled like a cattle and a pig, so they are not like a human body; they have men's cheek bones but are not men, and have no beards but are not women, although their faces are as beautiful as jade, but they are not angry at all, so they are not like human faces; their voices are as childish as children but not crisp as women, as sharp as women but not soft as women, you say it hoarse but can make sounds, you say it is like a goose but can also speak as a human voice, so they do not like human voices; they can love others very much, and they can also kill others, and they cry when they pity you, and when they hate you, they kill like grass, so they do not like human feelings.

These words clearly mean monsters! However, Dai Quan was sad to find that these eunuchs were a group of monsters in the eyes of others. With this perception that made him feel painful and humiliated, Dai Quan changed. With the acquiesce of Emperor Wen of Zhou, he even more exploited those fat and wealthy court officials, and enjoyed the bribes of these "normal people".

Many times, eunuchs just want a word of recognition, but this is something that most people cannot give them. Therefore, it is conceivable how shocking the little boy's uncle was to Dai Quan.

"Uncle, are you okay?" The little boy gently pulled Daiquan's hand and asked with his big round eyes.

Dai Quan covered his eyes with a little disobedient, "It's okay, I'm fine."

"Xie Xiao Gongzi's Reward." Compared to the beginning, Dai Quan's words were more warm and sincere.

Dai Quan bit off a candied haw, chewed it slowly, and swallowed it into his stomach. He felt that the string of candied haws was unprecedentedly sweet and soft, sweet and sweet. He usually didn't like these sweet and sour snacks, but this time he ate a string of candied haws cleanly.

The little boy put the candied haws on Dai Quan's hand and saw him biting a candied haw with his own eyes, then he looked at the two strings of candied haws on his hand with satisfaction.

"Zigu!" Suddenly, a sound of swallowing saliva came from his side.

The little boy looked over and saw a boy who had made an appointment with him and had a pretty face and eyes nibbled his fingernails and stared at the candied haws on his hand.

The little boy hurriedly protected a bunch of candied haws that seemed the most delicious to the little boy, and then bit the remaining bunch of candied haws into his mouth.

Feeling the sweet and sour taste in his mouth, the little boy narrowed his eyes with joy.

A trace of cunning flashed in the beautiful boy's eyes, "Little brother, I want to eat candied haws!" He pretended to be pitiful and said softly.

"No!" The little boy refused, resolutely protecting his candied haws from falling into the mouths of others.

"Little brother-in-law" The beautiful boy pouted and stretched his tail. He knew he was good-looking since he was a child. Whenever he acted coquettishly, even the strictest father would soften his heart.

"...No!" The little boy pursed his lips and said a little hesitant but stubbornly.

Well done! He was not deceived by beauty at a young age. He is truly worthy of being the reincarnation of Pojunxing! Dai Quan, who has successfully escaped and turned into a chief brainless fan of the little boy, praised him fiercely in his heart.

The little boy paused and asked in confusion: "Why didn't you ask your family to buy it for you? I also asked the third master to buy it for me."

When he mentioned the word "family", it seemed to hit the beautiful boy's fatal hole. His eyes turned red, his nose felt sore, and two lines of tears rolled down.

"What's wrong with you? Don't cry! I gave you all my candied haws! Don't cry!" The little boy was so shameless that he cried, and he was at a loss, only knowing to coax the beautiful boy around.

"Get out! Who wants your candied haws? I don't want them anymore!" The beautiful boy stubbornly wiped away the tears from his face with the back of his hand, but he couldn't finish it, and continued to wipe it hard again and again.

The little boy looked at the beautiful boy's red eyes, and his heart seemed to be clenched hard with his hands, and he couldn't breathe.

"Don't use so hard! Come on!" He took out a sweat towel from his arms and carefully and gently wiped away the tears on the beautiful boy's cheek one by one.

The beautiful boy stared at the little boy's serious and focused face in a daze, and said unconsciously: "Dad, don't want me! I'll run away from home!"

"Why?" The little boy remembered that he was also running away from home. With the same experiences between the two, he seemed to be getting closer to the beautiful boy without realizing it.

"He only spoiled that bad woman and her son, and he was not as good as before for me!" The beautiful boy said aggrievedly.

The little boy asked again, "What about your mother?" He wanted to know if the beautiful boy's mother was the same as his mother and didn't love them.

"I died last year." When I mentioned my mother who died early, the beautiful boy felt sad.

The little boy was both happy for him and a little lost. The mother of the beautiful boy would love him, and the mother was lost because only his mother did not love him. "After you have enough fun, go home!"

The beautiful boy flattered his mouth: "Dad doesn't want me anymore. They are the family, and it's not my home! I won't go back!"

"No." The little boy said with little confidence.

He thought about it, came up with an idea, and said, "I don't have a home, so I will be your family in the future. My home is your home!" After that, he raised a big and enthusiastic smile, and even the sunlight seemed to be attracted by his smile, pure and dazzling.

The beautiful boy was stunned for a moment, but soon laughed, and his smile was like the ripples of a clear spring, overflowing from the small vortex at the corner of his mouth, rippling and his face full.

"Okay! Your home will be my home in the future, and I will be your family!"

"Well! Pull the hook and hang it, and it will not change for a hundred years!" The two little fingers were wrapped around each other, and the thumbs were turned up and faced each other.

"Young Master, we have to leave." After Emperor Wen of Zhou negotiated with the shopkeeper Shan, he saw that the little boy and Dai Quan did not return for a long time, so he sent guards to find them.

On the other side, "Young Master! You young master! You finally found you! Why did you run out without a sound? Old lady, the master and the wife are very worried about you!" But it was the servant from Xiuli Boy's house who came here.

"I have to leave. My name is Feng Zizhi. You must remember me!" The beautiful boy was held by his servant unwillingly, fearing that he would run away again.

"Yeah!" The little boy nodded heavily, "You must remember too! My name is Jia Lian, and I live in Rongning Street!"

"The candied haws are all for you, they are sour and sweet, so delicious." The beautiful boy was included in his own range. The little boy didn't protect him at all, and there seemed to be a tail behind him shaking.

The beautiful boy was pulled back to his house by his servants in one hand, and held the candied haws given by the little boy in the other hand. He bit it down with a bite and made a sound crispy, sweet but not greasy, and sour. The sweet and sour taste of the sweet and sour teeth kept lingering in his heart and never dissipated for a long time.
