Chapter 028: Going to the Banquet
Mo Yao rested for a few more days, and the food source for these days was food and some money that Mo Xiaoxiao got in exchange for when he went outside to use his clothes as pawns.
The wounds on Mo Yao's body have all healed, and he went out to beg for food as always, and he carefully told Mo Xiaoxiao not to leave here like a big brother, and he will be back soon.
On this day, Mo Yao had just come back from begging, so he talked to Mo Xiaoxiao seriously, as calm as an adult.
"Sister, do you have a family, did you quarrel with your family and then sneak out?"
Mo Xiaoxiao was drinking white porridge, and suddenly choked on a sip, and said in a stunned and careless manner.
"What's wrong, no!"
The seriousness and doubt in Mo Yao's eyes ignited Mo Xiaoxiao's heart, and she was a little flustered and didn't know how to answer.
"Sister, I went out in the past few days and found that one of my brothers was looking for you, he doesn't look like a bad person, he looks very anxious, you better go back!"
The snickering joy in Mo Xiaoxiao's eyes was not noticed by Mo Yao, she just said leisurely: "How do you know that he is looking for me?" ”
"He is holding your portrait......"
Mo Xiaoxiao was stunned, she was a little incredulous.
"Oh, Xiaoyao, you must have read it wrong, it's not my sister, don't think about it!"
"Sister, that brother doesn't look like a bad guy......"
"Xiao Yao......"
Mo Xiaoxiao's tone was cold, his eyes were in a trance, and after a long while, he said softly in a calm tone: "When others ask you in the future, you just say that you don't know, do you know?" ”
Mo Xiaoxiao's sudden seriousness caught Mo Yao off guard, he had never seen Mo Xiaoxiao so sensitive and serious, so he didn't say anything anymore.
Mo Xiaoxiao's heart was very complicated, she didn't even understand why she was angry with Mo Yao, a child.
She didn't know whether to rejoice or be sad......
Is it He Yuwen? No, no, no, it should be Situ Zhaoyang...... She was in a mess and didn't know the answer!
The time has been set up like a clock, and fourteen days have passed before she knows it, and she has escaped for almost half a month!
Mo Xiaoxiao took out a red invitation from under the mattress that did not match the stinky bridge cave at all, its brilliant color looked incompatible with the black mess around it and was extremely dazzling.
Little Radish lay beside her, blinking her big watery eyes, swallowing her saliva and spitting out a few dry and tender words from her mouth.
"Sister, are you going to that beautiful sister's banquet?"
The corners of Mo Xiaoxiao's mouth raised slightly, and the gentleness and hesitation in her eyebrows fused, a little complicated and tangled.
"Mo Yao, do you like that beautiful sister?"
Mo Yao nodded, with a smile on his face, and scratched his head embarrassedly and said mischievously: "I like it, but I don't like my sister as much, I like my sister a little more." ”
Mo Xiaoxiao laughed softly, her smile was very beautiful, and she also reached out to scratch Mo Yao's armpits, making Mo Yao giggle.
"Good fellow, you little liar, but you have a conscience."
"Sister, sister is so itchy, don't scratch me, giggle......"
Day 2
Mo Xiaoxiao tossed and turned, and after a night of ideological struggle with herself, she still decided to go to the banquet, not for anything else, for Gu Qingshui's kindness and enthusiasm, her kindness and enthusiasm made her unable to refuse.
"Xiaoyao, my sister is going to find a beautiful sister today, do you want to go with me?"
Mo Xiaoxiao got up and freshened up when a frown just popped up in the red sun, and asked Mo Yao, who was sleepy-eyed and confused.
"Sister, you go, it's not appropriate for me to go, I'm so sleepy and I want to sleep......"
After Mo Yao finished speaking, he turned his head back and fell asleep again......
Mo Xiaoxiao changed into clothes that looked clean and tidy, went to the river to wash her face, and dipped her frizzy hair with her hands in water.
Mo Xiaoxiao took the red invitation and walked towards Gu's house.
Walking over the streets and rubbing shoulders with countless people, watching the sun on the river retreat from crimson to orange red, and then from pink rhyme to golden glow, until the endless river was completely blocked by rows of houses, and the sun hung on the attic of other people's houses, Mo Xiaoxiao found the Gu family.
Outside the Gu family is also a bustling and busy downtown area, and the gate of the Gu family is solemnly decorated with luxury and magnificence, which is very different from the small houses and low buildings in the market......
Mo Xiaoxiao stood at the door for a long time, she looked at the vermilion gate of the Gu family, and there were still a few stone steps, which was beyond the reach of many people......
She decided to go in anyway......
Mustering up his courage, he strode inside, and before he could step into the gate, he was intercepted by two strong men, with fierce faces and disdainful eyes, they pushed Mo Xiaoxiao out and drove her away.
"What are you doing, can you come here, come and join in the excitement if you want food, take a walk......"
"No, I'm here for a birthday party, I really have an invitation!
The two of them couldn't help but drive her out, like a fly......
"What do you do?"
A low male voice came out of the courtyard, the two stopped moving, and Mo Xiaoxiao stopped trying to see who was coming.
Jia Ding said: "Young master, it's a man named Hanako." ”
"It's called Hanako? It's good to give some money, don't fight for grandpa's birthday today. ”
"No, no, no, I'm not called Hanako, I have an invitation, don't believe you."
In order to prove his identity, Mo Xiaoxiao hurriedly took out the gorgeous and bright red invitation from his arms.
The man in front of him was wearing a beige suit, under the sword eyebrows was a tall nose and a lip like a butterfly, the red lips were pale but seemed to be wearing some lipstick, the face was like a crown of jade, the outline was like a knife, the eyes were like stars, and he was very good-looking, Mo Xiaoxiao always felt a sense of déjà vu......
"Got an invitation? Then let her in......"
The man didn't confirm the authenticity of her invitation, but just glanced at her and let her in. With that, he walked inside.
Mo Xiaoxiao finally broke free from the shackles of the two men, smiled at the two of them in embarrassment, and swaggered in.
There was still a gate inside the compound, but through the wide open door, Mo Xiaoxiao had already seen the scene inside.
In the splendid courtyard of the Gu family, the people are like flowing water, the seats are full, it is lively and lively, the eight tones are sprinkled with joy, the courtyard is like a city, the visitors are all dressed brightly, the faces are full of joy and joy, the banquet is even more luxurious, there are all kinds of chicken, duck and fish, they are some big people with heads and faces, they are simply a gathering of heroes......
Mo Xiaoxiao looked down at her dress, no wonder the two people just now wanted to drive her away, compared to the world, Mo Xiaoxiao felt like a stone mixed in a pile of gold......
Just as she was hesitating and hesitating, Gu Qingshui appeared in front of her like a little angel with a halo.
"Xiaoxiao, you're finally here, I thought you weren't coming!"
Gu Qingshui was dressed in a peach-colored dress today, and the sparkling pearl hair ornament on her small curly hair was even more shining, her smile was like a peach blossom, like a delicate and rich peony in full bloom in the sun.
"I, I'm coming......"
Mo Xiaoxiao's inferiority complex surged up like a pool of stagnant water, almost drowning her whole body......
"Xiaoxiao, it's great that you can come, I'll take you in!"
Gu Qingshui took her hand and wanted to enter the lobby with a smile.
Mo Xiaoxiao suddenly felt like she was nailed to the spot by something and couldn't move her feet, she bit her lower lip, lowered her head and looked humble.
"Let's go, Xiaoxiao......"
"Qing Shui, I'm here to live up to your good intentions, I've already come, I didn't miss the appointment, but I won't go in, I'll embarrass you, I'm like a beggar now, your relatives and friends will laugh at you if you stand with me!"
Gu Qingshui turned her head, squinting her eyes and smiling at the corners of her mouth, she looked Mo Xiaoxiao up and down, and quickly fixed her eyes.
"I know, I'll take you somewhere when you go!"
"Hey, where to ......"
Before Mo Xiaoxiao came back to her senses, Gu Qingshui pulled her around and turned around from the side of the courtyard.
Mo Xiaoxiao was pulled by Gu Qingshui all the way to trot, she held her hand tightly, there was no dislike or estrangement, her self-confidence, generosity and kindness were all shining, illuminating Mo Xiaoxiao's inferiority, sadness and depression little by little.
Avoiding the crowded banquet hall, she led her down a quiet and elegant path to her boudoir.
Mo Xiaoxiao was dragged up to the attic by Gu Qingshui, and walked into an elegant, fragrant and luxurious room, all of which were private rooms made of vermilion mahogany, with the smell of smoke in the room, the clean room, the luxurious furniture and ornaments were as bright as new, and the air was full of the smell of women's rouge perfume.
"Come and sit."
Gu Qingshui asked Mo Xiaoxiao to sit in front of the dresser, the mahogany tables and chairs, the elegant tables and mirrors, and the dazzling array of cosmetics from Mo Xiaoxiao's rouge gouache bottles and jars, Mo Xiaoxiao had never seen these before, and was amazed.
Gu Qingshui only cared about opening his wardrobe and picked out the most suitable one for Mo Xiaoxiao from among the many clothes.
"You put this on!"
Mo Xiaoxiao looked at Gu Qingshui with a smile on her face, she was holding a light blue dress in her hand, which was also tattooed with white lace, and some soft patterns, and there was a faint fragrance of roses on her clothes, which was the taste of Gu Qingshui, beautiful, luxurious and elegant, which matched Mo Xiaoxiao very well.
"I ......"
Before Mo Xiaoxiao could say anything, Gu Qingshui handed it to her and replaced it, and Mo Xiaoxiao's hesitation and concerns were overwhelmed by Gu Qingshui's enthusiasm.
After a while, Mo Xiaoxiao changed, she stood in front of the dressing mirror and looked at her body modified by a beautiful skirt, she couldn't help but blush, her body curves were graceful and beautiful, and her figure was graceful and slim, she never knew that she could be so beautiful and elegant like a princess.
"Wow, Xiaoxiao, you are really a hidden beauty haha."
Gu Qingshui laughed like a cat.
Gu Qingshui asked Mo Xiaoxiao to sit in front of the mirror again, she took out her cosmetics and gave Mo Xiaoxiao the "icing on the cake". Mo gently closed his eyes, let the makeup brush wander on his face, the rouge stretched out on his face, and finally applied a gorgeous lipstick, which made Mo Xiaoxiao beautiful and moving.
The girl's face in the mirror was slightly flushed, the delicate makeup made her more beautiful, and the slim and tight clothes made her body more graceful, and she had already developed into a mature woman.
Gu Qingshui led Mo Xiaoxiao downstairs, she was nervous and excited......
Some things come without warning, just like a sunny afternoon, when people are inadvertent, the silent rain comes quietly, it comes lightly and urgently, so light that it can't be noticed, and it is so anxious that you don't know what to do, only to find that the air outside the window is a little cold before you find that it is raining......
