"You can only have one! No more!"
The maltose candy was personally made by the head chef of the Imperial Kitchen. It came with a smooth bamboo stick, similar to a lollipop.
In ancient times, cane sugar was precious, affordable only for the Royal Family and nobility. However, for children, consuming too much cane sugar was bad for their teeth. The less sweet maltose was just right. Not only did it not harm teeth, but it was also rich in various vitamins and trace elements beneficial for children's growth and development. It was somewhat like honey. However, it wasn't very good for children to eat honey. After weighing the options, maltose was still the best.
Little Bun held the candy in his mouth, giggling joyfully. Soon, he was drooling all over the place.
Xia Ruqing eyed him with disdain. Her son is definitely going to be a foodie in the future.
Thinking this, she took a handkerchief and wrapped it around Little Bun's neck.
"There, now it won't drip down your neck!"
