The rest of the children who heard Yueyue speak blinked curiously and asked, "Sister Yueyue, where are you going?" ”

"It's nothing, let's use an analogy......" Yueyue said mischievously in a relaxed tone.

Grandpa seemed to realize something, and suddenly grabbed Yueyue's hand, and then found that Yueyue's hand was cold and piercing, suddenly frowned, and sighed: "Yes, grandpa will definitely want to...... If one day, you're going to come back to see Grandpa and your siblings......"

It seems that Yueyue felt the love and worry from her grandfather, and Yueyue also cooperated and said: "I will often come back to see grandpa's ......"

"Don't be so scary! It's like I won't see you tomorrow! How unlucky! ”

Qingtian suddenly stood up and patted Yueyue on the shoulder, thinking about how Yueyue could save Yanhong so easily, and asked her curiously: "I always feel that the reason you just said is not quite right, do you have something to hide from us?" ”

Yueyue closed her eyes and shook her head, then opened her eyes and said to Qingtian: "Qingtian, I am the eldest sister among you, and I am also the only elder among you except for my grandfather, I am older than all of you, so I have some of my own little secrets?" ”

"Huh? Can saving Yanhong still be a secret? ”

Qingtian was suddenly stunned, he scratched his head, and thought to himself, is there really any secret between men and women that cannot be said?

Thinking like this, Qingtian suddenly didn't dare to ask.

Grandpa shook his head, he patted the back of Qingtian and said, "Hungry, we should cook and eat......"

Hearing his grandfather say this, Qingtian hurriedly said, "Okay! Grandpa, I'll chop wood and light the fire! ”

"I'll cook!"

Jumping suddenly jumped up, waving his hands high, looking extremely excited, finally it was his turn to show what he was good at, why wasn't he excited?

Yueyue saw that everyone began to have a clear division of labor, and began to get busy, no one pestered her anymore, and asked her questions, Yueyue finally sighed deeply.

At this time, she finally didn't have to worry about it anymore, she was afraid that others would ask her questions, Yueyue was not good at lying after all, if she was asked by them like just now, she would definitely show her feet.

In case someone else knew that he had agreed to the uncle's request, everyone would definitely have to fight for themselves, but fortunately none of this happened.

Yueyue lifted her sleeves, wiped the beads of sweat from Yan Hong's forehead, and prayed, "Yan Hong...... You need to get better. ”

……

Dinner was the warmest and most reassuring meal for their group of children in a foreign place. After eating, everyone will be swept by sleepiness, and one by one they will lie on the bed and sleep happily.

Qingtian was worried about Yan Hong, so he lay down next to Yan Hong, planning to watch Yan Hong all night, and waited until Yan Hong woke up, but he still did not overcome his sleepiness and exhaustion, and fell asleep while sitting.

Seeing this, Grandpa smiled, stretched out his hand to pick up Qingtian, let him lie on the earthen bed, and covered him with a somewhat wrinkled, dirty quilt.

Probably because it was more comfortable to lie down and sleep, after lying down, Qingtian opened his mouth, and the sound of snoring came from his throat intermittently.

Even though the snoring was a bit heavy, it still didn't wake up the rest of the children, and everyone slept soundly and soundly, because they regarded this place as their home.

The only ones who didn't fall asleep at this time were Yueyue and Grandpa.

After the grandfather covered the quilt for the sunny day, he beckoned Yueyue to come to the yard with him, and he had something to say to Yueyue.

Sure enough, it was the night of autumn, the wind was blowing coldly on the body, and when the moon first came out, I felt a cold wind blowing, and I couldn't help but have a cold war.

Seeing this, Grandpa took off his coat and draped Yueyue on his shoulders.

"Thank you, grandpa......" Yueyue smiled, looking at her grandfather's face, a trace of warmth was born in her heart.

"Now that the kids are asleep, you don't have to hide it from me." Grandpa sighed softly.

"Grandpa, you know everything?" Yueyue wrapped the clothes on her body tighter, and her words were a little cautious.

"It's not easy to take Yanhong away from that kind of person, Yueyue, you are a kind child, but you can't agree to their excessive requests, do you know who that uncle is the king and landlord?" Grandpa frowned, his head pressed low.

"Grandpa......" Yueyue didn't speak, but hugged her grandfather tightly in fear.

"Grandpa didn't know until he was lame that he was the one who was looking for resources for the king and landlord...... Whoever the landlord wants, he will give it to him according to the landlord's preference. Over the years, he has done many things that violate his conscience...... When he introduced me, he ended up speaking ill of me and instigating the king and landlord to discount my leg......"

As he spoke, Grandpa pointed to his disabled leg and regretted it.

"Yueyue...... Grandpa is useless, can't help you anything...... But you have to remember your grandfather's words, when you get to the king and landlord, you must be careful, don't offend the king and landlord, otherwise you will die! ”

Grandpa's eyes were red, with an impotent cry between the words, and with his calloused rough hands, he trembled and touched Yueyue's cheeks and wiped away the tears from the corners of Yueyue's eyes.

"Hmm...... Yueyue remembered...... Grandpa, don't worry......"

Yueyue choked aggrievedly, then looked up at the moon rising in the sky, the dim and dark night sky, broke free from her grandfather, and ran outside.

"Yueyue, ah......"

Grandpa was afraid of waking up the children in the house, so he could only whisper a word, and hurriedly walked forward, seeing Yueyue leave his sight.

He stood at the door holding on to the door frame, reaching out to pull Yueyue back, but Yueyue ran too fast, he really couldn't grasp Yueyue's arm, so he had to put his hand down helplessly, lowered his head, and his eyes were full of worry.

……

Uncle's house

The uncle was already standing in the courtyard of his house, looking out the door, waiting for the arrival of Yueyue.

Soon, Yueyue came to the door of the uncle as promised, looked at the courtyard gate that was not closed in front of her, but walked in alive.

"Here ......

Uncle walked to Yueyue's side, smiled and gently put his arm around Yueyue's shoulder, and let Yueyue follow his footsteps into the house.

Yueyue tensed her nerves, frowned and followed her uncle into the house, and took Yueyue into a room full of beautiful clothes and jewelry.

At this time, the uncle's wife was tidying up the dresser, and after seeing Yueyue's arrival, she had a smile on her face, took Yueyue's hand, and let Yueyue sit in front of the dresser.

Yueyue was sitting precariously, looking at the uncle's wife at a loss, but she didn't dare to ask more.

The uncle's wife put her hands on Yueyue's shoulders and said with a smile: "Auntie will draw you a beautiful makeup, and then change into this beautiful dress, okay?" ”

Yueyue didn't dare to refuse, "Good ......"

Yueyue looked at the bronze mirror that she had never seen before, opened her eyes, and looked at herself in the mirror incredulously.

After seeing Yueyue's appearance, the uncle's wife smiled and said to Yueyue: "This is a bronze mirror, it's amazing......

"Hmm......" Yueyue nodded dumbfounded, she did think it was amazing.

"Remember you in the mirror, and soon you will see a different version of yourself......"

The uncle's wife smiled, and then wiped the dust off Yueyue's face with a handkerchief, revealing Yueyue's smooth and white little face, and began to put on makeup for Yueyue.

Yueyue's foundation is good, and her age is still young, so she doesn't need to paint too heavy makeup, she only needs to apply some warm red rouge on her cheeks, smear her lips through the vermilion lip paper, gently draw her faint crescent eyebrows with carbon strips, and bring her a pair of small and cute earrings to complete the simple makeup.

She untied Yueyue's long hair, picked up the comb, and combed it from the top of Yueyue's head to the ends of her hair, and the long black hair fell to the ground like a waterfall, smooth and smooth, shining with a natural and healthy luster under the candlelight.

Combed her hair into a delicate bun, picked up a few flower butterfly hairpins from the jewelry box, and inserted them on her head.

The foundation of the little girl is good, and there is no need to deliberately create something when you dress up, even if you use the cheapest jewelry, you can also dress up beautifully, which makes people shine and feel happy.

Yueyue looked at herself in front of the bronze mirror, and couldn't believe that she could be so beautiful, which was something she couldn't even think of.

She originally thought that only the day she got married would be the most beautiful day, but now it seems that she is also beautiful today, and she can't help but sigh that the uncle's wife's hands are really dexterous.

"Alright, now it's time for us to change into nice clothes!"

The uncle's wife looked at Yueyue in the bronze mirror, and then looked at Yueyue's makeup left and right, and smiled with satisfaction.

Then he helped Yueyue up, stripped her clothes, let Yueyue enter the half-human-high wooden barrel, picked up a white handkerchief, and wiped Yueyue's skin.

Flower petals float in the barrel, and the warm water emits white smoke, and the fragrance of the petals becomes more and more sweet and attractive under the evaporation of the water vapor.

After wiping Yueyue's body up and down, the uncle's wife found a beautiful flower dress and wore it on Yueyue's body, layer after layer, Yueyue wore so many layers of clothes for the first time in her life.

After putting it on, Yueyue looked down at the beautiful clothes on her body that would only appear in dreams, and asked her uncle's wife, "This dress is so beautiful, why do you want me to wear it?" ”

"Silly girl, my aunt dressed you up beautifully, of course, to take you to the king and landlord. The landlord likes beautiful girls the most, there was a girl like you before, and she was also dressed up by my hands, she was not as good as you, but the landlord still spoiled her. You are even more beautiful than her, and you will definitely be the top baby of the king landlord in the future, hehe......"

Yueyue looked at her uncle's wife in ignorance and panic, and saw that her uncle's wife gently stroked her hands, patted Yueyue's palms, and her smiling eyes narrowed into a slit, and a trace of fear arose in her heart.
