Xiao Lin ran home with the candy and saw his brother weaving a bamboo basket in the courtyard under the moonlight. His sister was looking ahead while rubbing the hemp rope skillfully.
"Sister, open your mouth."
Xiao Li smiled and opened her mouth obediently.
Xiao Lin opened his handkerchief and put a mint into Xiao Li's mouth. Then, he quickly sealed his sister's mouth with his hand.
He smiled and asked, "Is it sweet? You're not allowed to spit it out, or I'll ignore you."
Xiao Li felt the candy slowly melting on the tip of her tongue and nodded. Then, she took her hand off her mouth. "Brother, did you give it all to me again?" Although it was a question, Xiao Li knew that Xiao Lin definitely didn't eat it.
Xiao Lin quickly replied, "I did. I couldn't help but eat one on the way."
Xiao Li looked suspicious.
Xiao Sheng looked at the handkerchief and asked Xiao Lin how he got it. Xiao Lin told him the whole story.
