Without saying anything sentimental, Mo Yutong just stared at him with soft eyes. After he lowered his head shyly, she waved to Yan Mingxue.
"Xue'er, come here, let me braid your hair." Hearing that her sister was going to braid her hair again, Yan Mingxue very consciously dragged over a chair and a low square stool and sat in front of her obediently.
"Brother Li, do you want to learn?" Mo Yutong looked at the blush on the boy's cheeks with a half-smile, and then heard him pretend to be calm and replied: "No!"
He was not afraid of learning, but he was afraid of the little girl's hands-on teaching. She had important things to do today, and he couldn't waste her time.
"Sister, a butterfly hairpin." Yan Mingcheng handed the butterfly hairpin to Mo Yutong from under the pillow. He was the one who helped his sister take it off yesterday.
"Chengcheng is so good. Today we will use red hairbands to braid your hair." Mo Yutong took out two long red hairbands from her pocket and smiled at Yan Mingcheng.
Take a red hairband, fold it in half, tie it around your hair twice and use it as a parting piece. Braid the hair into three strands together with the two strands. Then fix the ends of the hair with the red hairband and tie a beautiful bow.
Because she didn't teach the young man, Mo Yutong braided the hair very quickly. After a while, two pigtails with red hairbands were hanging in front of Yan Mingxue's chest.
"Sister, this red hairband is so beautiful!" Yan Mingxue couldn't let go of the bow on her braid and couldn't help touching it again and again.
"When my sister was little, her favorite thing was the red hairband. Her mother could use it to style her hair in all kinds of beautiful ways."
Mo Yutong was very satisfied with her craftsmanship, but Yan Mingli took her unintentional words to heart.
"I have to go, otherwise I will be late." Mo Yutong said as she walked into the bedroom and slung her military bag.
"I'll take you to the village entrance." It would take twenty minutes to walk from his home to the village entrance by taking a shortcut, and he was really worried about her as a little girl.
He also wanted to give her the thing he had made this morning, but he didn't know if she would like it.
"Okay!" How could Mo Yutong miss the opportunity to be alone with the boy? He would definitely climb up the pole as hard as he could.
After saying goodbye to the two little ones, Yan Mingli locked the gate and led the little girls to the village entrance via a shortcut.
Seeing that this road was completely different from the one he took yesterday, Mo Yutong didn't ask any more questions and just let him lead forward.
Soon they entered a small forest. Yan Mingli led the way and Mo Yutong followed slowly behind him.
The two walked in silence in the woods for five or six minutes. Yan Mingli suddenly slowed down and handed her the straw hat he had been holding in his hand. "Here, block the sun."
"Is this specially woven for me?" The straw hat was spotlessly clean, without any dirt or wear, and the joints were trimmed very smoothly, so it was obvious that it was newly woven.
Such a big surprise suddenly hit her, Mo Yutong was a little unable to react and even forgot to reach out to catch it.
She has been the one who has been running around actively these days, and even the pair of straw sandals were begged for by her.
Although she believed that he would eventually agree to her passionate pursuit that transcended this era, and even felt his slight hesitation, she still did not dare to expect happiness to come so quickly!
"I got up early in the morning to weave it, so it doesn't look very good." Seeing that she hadn't accepted the straw hat yet, Yan Mingli's heart, which had been burning with nervousness, gradually cooled down.
A strange yet familiar pain suddenly arose in my heart, like a blunt knife cutting flesh inch by inch.
He pursed his lips and remained silent, took back his straw hat and held it tightly, then continued walking forward with difficulty.
The little girl didn't like the straw hat he wove. His hat didn't match her, just like he...
"Brother Li, you are so nice!" Suddenly the little girl's cheerful voice came into his ears.
He turned around in a daze and saw his little girl smiling brightly and staring at him with burning eyes.
"As long as you like it!" In a moment, it seemed as if spring had returned to the earth, and the colorful world burst with the most abundant vitality.
That is the lakeside covered with green grass, thriving with the prosperity of all things reviving.
"I like it, I like it very much!" Unable to restrain the surging waves in her heart any longer, the little girl rushed towards her boy with great joy.
The young man smiled, the cold winter in his heart was dispelled by the ever-bright starry sky, and his eyes were filled with the soft little girl who rushed towards him.
The little girl was soft, with a faint floral scent in her braids. Her fair arms were tightly wrapped around his waist, and her little head kept rubbing against his chest.
"Does it look good?" The little girl may have had enough of rubbing against him, so she took the straw hat from his hand and put it on, looking at him shyly.
"Beautiful!" The young man spoke in a hoarse voice, lowering his eyes to look at her gently. His pair of bright black eyes were like two obsidians, full of captivating charm.
"Brother Li, does it really take seven days?" Mo Yutong felt that she would be the one to lose first. With his seductive look, she really couldn't resist him anymore.
"Then how many days do you want to think about it?" The young man laughed softly, and his gentle laughter echoed in her ears, burning her ears as if they were about to melt.
The sound was so beautiful, it tickled her heart like a cat toy, making her chest numb and hot.
"Let's have seven days!" There was a time limit, so she could at least take it slow. Otherwise, she would have pounced on him without caring about anything.
"Don't let your imagination run wild." The young man leaned close to her ear, warming her with his clean voice, which enveloped her.
She was stuck in place, unable to move, and stammered, "No, I'm just imagining things, no."
"Have you hugged me enough?" The young man's eyes moved, and what was shimmering in his eyes was more than just a pool of rippling spring water, it was three thousand weak waters that seemed to be drowning the little girl alive.
"No." The little girl was intoxicated by his eyes as deep as the sea and didn't want to leave at all. She just wanted to hug her boy and hold him tightly.
"If you don't let go, you'll be late." The boy whispered softly, like a spring breeze blowing through a tree full of flowers, revealing soft warmth.
"Then, let's go!" The little girl reluctantly let go of his hand, straightened her straw hat, and tried to cover her eyes full of lust.
"Yeah!" The boy who was hugged by the little girl raised the corners of his lips, with a tender look in his eyes.
After they walked out of the grove and saw an ox cart parked not far away, the boy took out the key from his pocket and handed it to her.
"You should be back earlier than me, so don't come to the fields. The sun is scorching hot, be careful not to get too hot."
"I understand." Mo Yutong didn't dare to look at him. She lowered her head, took the key, and stuffed it into her bag anxiously.
"You were so brave just now, but now you don't dare to look at me." Yan Mingli said with tenderness in his eyes and laughed softly.
"Who said I don't dare?" Mo Yutong, whose heroic spirit was stirred by the provocation, met the boy's gentle gaze, pulled the brim of her hat awkwardly, and said coquettishly, "Hate it, I'm leaving!"
After watching her get on the ox cart with a happy mood, Yan Mingli turned around and walked towards the brigade headquarters. The faint fragrance of the little girl seemed to still linger on his chest.
