Eleven o'clock.
Li Xiu brought Tuan Tuan to Dexing Square.
Nowadays, the most prosperous place in a county should be the square.
It was noon, and there were many small vendors around the square.
There were stalls selling fried rice and noodles, egg pancakes, and some children's balloons.
Of course, there was also cotton candy.
Li Xiu paid one yuan.
She bought a cotton candy.
This cotton candy was as big as the little guy's face!
Tuan Tuan was so happy that his teeth couldn't be seen.
She couldn't bear to finish it in one go. She stuck out her little tongue and licked it. A sweet taste immediately spread.
She was so happy that she narrowed her eyes and smiled at Li Xiu.
Are you happy, Tuan Tuan?"
Li Xiu asked with a smile.
The little guy nodded and reached out to grab some cotton candy. He stood on his tiptoes and insisted that Li Xiu have a taste too.
"Daddi, eat, eat!"
Li Xiu originally did not want to compete with the child for food, but he did not expect the child to be so stubborn as to grab onto the hem of his clothes and refuse to let go.
He had no choice but to squat down and eat the marshmallow from the little girl's hand.
"Daddy, is it sweet?"
Li Xiu looked at her smiling face.
His heart warmed.
"Sweet."
How could it not be sweet when his daughter fed him?
"Let's go, Tuan Tuan. Daddy will buy you milk powder.”
Li Xiu still remembered this!
She had spent Tuan Tuan's milk powder money, and that was probably why Yan Liyi had decided to run away from home.
Although Li Xiu had always been puzzled by Yan Liyi's departure, he was still confused.
After all, she loved Tuan Tuan so much. Could she really bear to leave her alone?
Li Xiu's thoughts were fruitless, so he decided not to think about it.
She immediately pulled Tuan Tuan to the mother and baby store.
He looked at it for a long time and chose a Wandashan milk powder.
One hundred yuan per can was considered extremely expensive in this era.
After all, if he bought Flying Crane and Three Deer, it would only cost 30 to 40 yuan.
Li Xiu only wanted to give Tuan Tuan the best.
She bought a can of milk powder and some snacks for children.
Li Xiu looked at his own money. He was left with 108 yuan.
It was almost noon, and Li Xiu's stomach was growling with hunger.
He resisted the urge to buy food and spent six yuan on a pound of meat. With the two yuan fare, he had 100 yuan left.
Li Xiu carried Tuan Tuan and happened to catch the bus at 11:30 pm, heading straight home.
It was a quarter past twelve.
Li Xiu pushed open the door of his courtyard.
The courtyard was quiet. Yan Liyi was not around.
Tuan Tuan was still holding the marshmallow carefully.
The poor marshmallow had already melted halfway. Her heart ached so much that she licked the sugar stains on her hands.
Li Xiu was puzzled.
Where was Yan Liyi at lunchtime?
He walked to the stove and opened the lid. There was a pot of water with a few grains of rice inside.
There was also an empty bowl that hadn't been washed.
Li Xiu's eyelids twitched.
Was this Yan Liyi's lunch?!
As he pondered.
The courtyard door was opened.
Yan Liyi had returned.
She looked up and saw Li Xiu and the milk dumpling.
His eyes lit up.
She put down the basket in her hand and walked over quickly. When she saw Tuan Tuan, her eyes were filled with joy!
This morning, only God knew how much internal struggle she had to make before she let Li Xiu take the child away!
She had been restless the whole morning. She came back for some porridge at noon and forgot to bring her purse when she went out.
When she turned around, she realized that Tuan Tuan and Li Xiu had actually returned!
The little one missed Yan Liyi too.
He leaned over and kissed her.
Then, as if he was presenting a treasure, he handed over the cotton candy in his hand and looked at her with sparkling eyes.
"Mama! Marshmallow! Eat! Tiantian!"
"Did Daddy buy it for you?" Yan Liyi was surprised.”
Little Milk Dough nodded.
"Yes! Papa even bought Tuan Tuan milk powder!"
Tuan Tuan said happily.
Yan Liyi was shocked.
She suddenly looked up at Li Xiu.
There was a yellow plastic bag on the stove.
There was a cylindrical milk powder can inside. It was wrapped in a bright red package and was completely sealed.
She was stunned.
He took a few quick steps and walked over. After looking carefully for a long while, he raised his head and looked at Li Xiu. He was speechless."You really…bought milk powder for Tuan Tuan?”
Li Xiu nodded.
"I bought some carrots today," he said."I earned money from selling them."”
He was concise. Before Yan Liyi could ask any more questions, Li Xiu looked at her with an ugly expression and pointed at the empty bowl on the stove.
"Is this what you had for lunch?"
His voice suddenly sank.
Yan Liyi was stunned and felt a little guilty.
She lowered her head and avoided her gaze. She said vaguely,"I'm not very hungry, so…"
"In front of me, you don't need to hide.”
"It's my fault for letting you starve," Li Xiu said in a deep voice.”
He reached out and patted Yan Liyi's shoulder gently for the first time.
"Wait for me here. I'll be right back.”
After Li Xiu finished speaking, he turned around and strode out.
In the courtyard, Yan Liyi stood rooted to the ground.
On his shoulder, the heat from Li Xiu's palm seemed to be still there, scorching hot.
His words echoed in her mind.
In front of him, there was no need to hide.
She…
Was it really possible?
