Xiao Yan stood up slowly, her round eyes rolled quickly, and suddenly she saw a dark brown wooden cabinet in the corner against the wall. It moved quietly towards that side as if in slow motion, being careful not to make a sound.
"Squeak!" Unfortunately, the wooden cabinet is old, and the door leaves have been in disrepair for a long time. As soon as it is opened a little, it makes a harsh noise. Xiao Yan rubbed her forehead in frustration, and continued to pull the door of the cabinet. When the gap was barely enough for it to squeeze through, she plunged into the cabinet and pushed most of her body in three times, but her buttocks were still left. Outside, no matter what, you can't squeeze in.
It turned out that grandma had piled up a lot of unused sundries in the dark brown wooden cabinet, and the remaining space was limited, so there was no room for the whole cabinet. Xiao Yan is stubborn, she doesn't believe she can't get in, and continues to struggle. Under the watchful eyes of two pairs of eyes, the cabinet was quickly overwhelmed, wobbling and dancing, and it was about to fall apart.
Fang Xiaoyuan couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so she ignored Zhou Yangyang who was still standing at the door, and walked over to try to get Xiao Yan out. She pushed the cabinet door aside, grabbed Xiaoyan's leg and pulled it out forcefully, but unexpectedly she couldn't pull it even with all her strength.
"Fang Xiaoyuan." Xiaoyan's muffled voice suddenly came from the cabinet, "II seem to be stuck"
Hearing the call for help, Zhou Yangyang hurriedly opened the door and walked over, imitating Fang Xiaoyuan's example and grabbing Xiaoyan's other leg. He supported his body with that lame leg, stretched out the other leg to touch the cabinet leg, turned his head and said to Xiaoyuan, "I'll count to 123, let's work hard together."
"1, 2, 3!" "1, 2, 3!" The two worked together like participating in a school tug-of-war, concentrating all their strength on their hands, and desperately pulling them out.
"Plop!" "Clatter!"
Xiaoyan finally separated from the dark brown wooden cabinet, but Fang Xiaoyuan and Zhou Yangyang didn't have time to regain their strength, and the two of them fell to the ground together, dropping their big buttocks and squatting. Before they had time to stand up, the things that had been stuffed in the cabinet before fell out and fell on them.
After such a commotion, the grandma who had been squatting in the vegetable garden doing farm work stood up and walked towards the house. She pushed open the door and was shocked when she saw the scattered items scattered all over the floor, "Yuanyuan, what are you doing?!"
Zhou Yangyang hurriedly pushed aside the things piled up on him, stood up against the wall next to him, and answered first, "I was curious about what was in this cabinet, and wanted to crawl in to have a look, but accidentally got it out. I'm sorry. "As he said, he also bowed to grandma the same way he bowed to Fang Xiaoyuan yesterday, making people unable to bear to blame her.
"We will tidy it up." Fang Xiaoyuan hurriedly added, "I guarantee it will be exactly the same as before."
When grandma left, the two of them blinked and looked at each other, and suddenly burst into laughter at the same time. Xiao Yan, who had just hid by the door of the back room while everyone was not paying attention, poked her head out and asked, "What are you laughing at?" Zhou Yangyang remembered that there was still an unsolved puzzle waiting for him.
Putting the things on the floor back into the cabinet, Fang Xiaoyuan moved a new small bench and placed it beside the low table, and solemnly said to Zhou Yangyang, "I can tell you, but you can't tell anyone."
Zhou Yangyang nodded without thinking, "My mouth is very strict, and I must keep it a secret."
Fang Xiaoyuan thought about it, saw the watermelon on the table, grabbed the light yellow plastic basin containing the watermelon and hugged it in her arms, "You have to swear to this watermelon that you will never tell this secret to anyone else, or you will never be able to tell this secret to anyone else, otherwise you will be in the same place for the rest of your life." I can¡¯t even eat watermelon.¡± In her opinion, this vow is extremely heavy, and she believes that no one is willing to risk watermelon.
"Okay, I swear." Zhou Yangyang raised three fingers like the characters in the TV series, and said seriously.
After the agreement was reached, Fang Xiaoyuan turned around and shouted to the back room, "Xiao Yan, come out, we have already discussed."
Knowing that Xiaoyan is a goblin, Zhou Yangyang opened his mouth wide, and it was no problem to stuff one-eighth of a watermelon in one breath. He looked at Xiao Yan suspiciously, and stretched out his hand cautiously, "Can I touch you?"
Xiao Yan immediately passed her hand over and touched his lightly. This touch is so real, it's hard to believe it or not. Zhou Yangyang stood up, compared his size with Xiao Yan, and tried to pick it up and weigh it, but unfortunately he failed. Xiao Yan was heavier than he imagined, and he couldn't lift it up by himself.
After convincing himself that everything in front of him was real and not an illusion, Zhou Yangyang reached out and grabbed his cheek, squeezed it firmly, and soon cried out in pain. While rubbing his face, he stared blankly at Fang Xiaoyuan who was sitting opposite, and murmured, "So this is not a dream"
"Of course it's not a dream. If you don't believe me, pinch me too." Fang Xiaoyuan stretched out his arm, and Zhou Yangyang immediately stretched out his arm.Shaking his head like a rattle, "I believe it, I believe it. But if I didn't see it with my own eyes, but someone told me about it, I must think he is lying."
"Not everyone can see Xiaoyan, for example, grandma, she can't see it." Fang Xiaoyuan said proudly, "This shows that the two of us are very special."
Hearing the word "special", Zhou Yangyang scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, and suddenly remembered that he came with a mission. It was time for lunch soon, and his mother was still at home waiting for him to take the aluminum pot back to serve food, and he had completely forgotten about it.
"I have to go back." Zhou Yangyang picked up the aluminum basin again and bid farewell to Fang Xiaoyuan. He turned his head to look at Xiao Yan, and asked reluctantly, "Will I have a chance to see you again in the future?"
"Of course, my home is in the chimney on the roof. If you want to see me, come to Fang Xiaoyuan's house."
Hearing the good news, Zhou Yangyang became happy. Fang Xiaoyuan lowered her head and noticed that his long nails had been cut off at some point, and the seams between the nails were much cleaner than in the morning. Zhou Yangyang found that she was staring at his hand, instead of curling up his fingers like last time, he stretched out his hand in front of her.
"I've already cut my nails, and I washed my hands three times before I came here." He said with his head held high, "I will remember to wash before every meal in the future, and I will tell my parents to wash their hands carefully, so that we can Get sick less."
Fang Xiaoyuan's unspoken apology suddenly became useless. She thought Zhou Yangyang ran away in anger in the morning. It turned out that he was rushing home to wash his hands, which made her admire this thin boy even more. Suddenly, she had a bold idea.
"Zhou Yangyang, do you want to take a look in the world of goblins? There are many new gadgets there, much more than I have seen since I was a child."
"Really? I want to go." Zhou Yangyang nodded his head to show his sincerity. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
