Chapter 311
It was getting dark. Yunmian sat on a small stool behind the toy stall, holding a cup of water and tilting her head to look at the fried chicken stall next to her that was emitting a fragrant aroma.
She came to set up her stall a little late today, so she didn't get a spot next to yesterday's fruit stall.
Then grandma shrewdly led her to the fried chicken stall and found a small empty space to set up the stall.
"There must be a lot of children here buying food. Maybe if there are too many children waiting, some will want to buy the toys that Mianmian is selling."
Grandma always has some little wisdom in the details of life.
After grandma left, Yunmian took out the toys one by one and arranged them, then sniffed the fragrance emanating from the sides and secretly swallowed her saliva.
It smells so good! The aroma of the fried chicken fried in high-temperature hot oil almost dominates half of the street. The crackling sound when the fried chicken is thrown into the oil pan also constantly tempts the children's saliva.
The system felt that the host who secretly swallowed her saliva was a little pitiful, and couldn't help but say to her: "Mianmian, how about buying a little to try?"
Yun Mian shook her head, raised her cup and took a sip of water, then she looked away with difficulty, trying not to pay attention to the fragrant smell next to her.
She had asked the brother who sells fried chicken before, and a serving of fried chicken costs ten dollars...
Of course Yunmian only had ten yuan on her, but ten yuan was enough for grandpa to buy many crispy and sweet fresh cucumbers.
Yunmian couldn't bear to leave.
The system had no choice but to fly up and touch the child's forehead, comforting her: "It's okay, I'll help Mianmian remember the things you want to eat and buy. When we make more money in the future, we'll buy them all home, and don't leave any behind!"
Yunmian nodded vigorously: "Uncle, you also need to write down what grandpa, grandma and mom want!"
"Okay, Mianmian, do you want to watch some cartoons? School isn't over yet, so we can play for a while."
Yunmian's eyes lit up: "Yes! Thank you, uncle~"
The system dug out the various cartoons it had found in many small worlds, and found one that Mianmian had not watched yet and played it for her.
After the vendors at the night market gradually dispersed again, Yunmian sat in the cart behind her grandmother, leaning against the slightly heavy toy box, and continued to look at the receding scenery that she had seen yesterday.
I also looked up at the starry sky above my head, which I had also seen many times.
She still wanted to pick the stars and hang them in her mother's dark world.
She wanted to brighten up her mother's world.
Then there would be only the faint light of two stars, and maybe Mom wouldn't be afraid of the dark anymore.
When they got home, the children immediately ran into the house to look for it.
She decided to make a star for her mother as Uncle System had said before.
"Uncle, do all the stars in the world look like this?" Yun Mian tilted her head and looked at the little stars in the five corners of the system uncle's light curtain, holding the scissors and cardboard in her hands without moving.
The system denied: "Of course not. Real stars are planets. They don't look like this with sharp edges and corners. But the appearance of this star is recognized by everyone."
It is a "star" in the popular sense.
After getting the answer, Yunmian took the slightly rusty scissors, pressed the cardboard and carefully cut out a small piece of five-pointed star.
But after cutting, she held the "star" in her hands, tilted her head to look at the five perfectly fitting holes in the cardboard, and a light bulb suddenly lit up in her head.
"Uncle, I know what kind of star I should give to my mother!!" Yun Mian threw the star in her hand aside, picked up the cardboard on the ground, and placed it carefully in the corner, in case her grandparents would accidentally pick up the cardboard and sell it tomorrow.
The system has been thinking about how Mianmian will send the stars to Yun Mujin's world.
It thought about it all night and the best way was to make a star and give it to Yun Mujin. Apart from that, it couldn't think of any better way.
The next day, when the system saw the child excitedly holding the cardboard and walking under the eaves with her mother, it knew that Mianmian was going to give her mother a star based on her own understanding.
So the ball of light quickly followed the mother and daughter, watching everything that was about to happen quietly and curiously.
"Mom, put your hand out~" Yun Mian guided her mother mysteriously.
Although Yun Mujin was puzzled about what his daughter wanted to do, after sitting down, he still followed his daughter's request and slowly extended his right hand forward.
The sun is shining brightly today. The bright and warm light under the eaves and the shadows together form a conspicuous boundary between light and dark.
Yun Mujin's right hand reached out from the shadow into the sunlight, and the shadow of her right hand also appeared on the ground.
Yunmian jumped happily and said softly, "Mom, don't move yet, I'll be fine soon!!"
After saying that, she ran into the sunlight and held the big piece of cardboard in the air above her mother's palm.
Yun Mujin had only one palm touching the sunlight, and most of his right hand was covered in shadow again.
But the light that slanted through the cardboard condensed into a warm light in the palm of her hand.
It was a light that lit up her palms into the shape of stars. When you looked down, you would find that she seemed to be holding a bright star in her hands.
The slight temperature difference in his palm caused by the change in sunlight and shadow also allowed Yun Mujin to quickly sense the difference.
She clenched her right hand doubtfully, and most of the "star" fell on her slightly curled fingers.
So she turned her right hand over again and felt it carefully with the back of her hand facing up.
Yunmian tried hard to steady the cardboard in her hand, and stood in the sun, looking at her mother with bright eyes and full of expectation.
The people in the system and the live broadcast room, who were originally equally puzzled, held their breath at the same time because of this scene.
“Stars”…is this how they are given as gifts?
Yun Mujin held a star, a star with contours, warmth and brightness, but like a real star, it could not be held or caught.
It is difficult to describe the astonishment and shock that occurred in their hearts when they saw this scene, but if they really had to describe it, it would probably be like they saw in an instant a real star penetrate through time and space and quietly fall into Yun Mujin's hands, right?
They unconsciously tensed their nerves, slowed down their breathing, and waited together with the children who were holding up cardboards in the sun for Yun Mujin under the eaves to slowly sense this unique "star".
Under the complex gazes of countless eyes with various emotions, Yun Mujin seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then spread his hands again, maintaining the initial spreading posture, slightly tilting his head to look in the direction of Yun Mian, hesitantly guessing: "Mian Mian, is there a star in my hand? A star made of sunlight?"
Yunmian's eyes suddenly brightened, and she nodded vigorously with joy: "Yeah! Mom is so great, you guessed it right away!!"
Although she really wanted to rush over to hug her mother and kiss her, Yunmian saw that her mother still stretched out her right hand, so she just stood there obediently, holding the cardboard without moving.
So the star always stayed in Yun Mujin's hand, quietly held by her, quietly emitting warm light.
Yun Mujin sensed this tiny star, and in his originally dark eyes, he could even easily imagine a bright star falling into the palm of his hand.
She couldn't help but want to curl her fingers and hold it.
But she did not move until her outstretched right arm began to feel numb and sore. Then she slowly curled up her fingers one by one and firmly and carefully grasped the warm star in her hand.
She withdrew her hand, placed her right hand on her knee, and was reluctant to let go of her clenched fingers for a long time.
Yunmian also put down the cardboard, jumped in front of her mother with joy, hugged her and rubbed her head, then whispered softly in her ear: "Mom, this is the star I picked from the sky. It has to work very late at night. It can only come to meet you secretly during the day, and then it has to run back to sleep quickly, otherwise it might be late for work at night."
"Mom, do you like this star?" Yun Mian hugged her mother and asked her in a low voice expectantly.
Yun Mujin couldn't suppress the smile on her lips as she listened to her daughter's innocent nonsense. Only after she asked this did she let go of her tightly clenched right hand, and then held the imaginative little girl in her arms, lowered her head and rubbed her head warmed by the sun, and replied in a gentle voice: "Thank you Mianmian, I like this star very much, and I also like Mianmian who gave mom a star."
These were the only stars she had been able to truly [see] in the six years since she became blind.
Cotton Boy’s clever light bulb finally lit up today!
