Little Yuzu peeked out from under the fluffy hood of her cloak.
She wasn't wearing her hair up; instead, she had two thick braids that didn't quite match her clothes.
Seeing this, Li Lan immediately waved to her: "Little Youzi, shall I braid your hair?"
"OK."
Little Yuzu readily agreed and went over to sit on the stone bench.
Li Lan patted Xiao Youzi's head and said with a smile, "Wait for me."
After saying that, she went to the room and found a comb and some rubber bands, jewelry and other decorations on the dressing table.
Li Lan carefully braided Xiao Youzi's hair.
Before long, a brand new-looking pomelo appeared!
Li Lan styled her hair into double buns and pinned them with two red, fluffy, ball-shaped hair clips.
The warm sunlight shone on her red clothes, making Xiaoyouzi's pink face look like a peach.
When Li Liye came out, he was immediately amazed: "It seems that the clothes I made are really good. Ah Lan, look how cute Xiao Youzi is dressed!"
She looks even cuter after dressing up and getting ready.
Li Lan: "Yes, yes, yes."
If it weren't for Xiaoyouzi, he doesn't know how long these clothes would have been stored away.
Few people were dressed appropriately.
Li Liye raised his camera to check the location and said, "Little Youzi, hold that wintersweet branch in one hand and hold onto the tree with the other, then peek out from behind."
"OK!"
Holding the newly picked wintersweet from Li Liye's hand, Xiaoyouzi struck a pose as he requested, revealing a smile.
At the same time, Li Liye took a camera, squatted down, and started taking pictures of Xiaoyouzi like crazy.
"Click, click."
Li Liye pressed several buttons, examining the photos from various angles.
The little pomelo in the photo is all smiles, with a childlike innocence in her eyes and brows, lively and spirited, like a little fairy in a painting.
"Little Yuzu, let's do a few more sets." Li Liye held up his camera and looked at Little Yuzu expectantly.
Little Yuzu nodded in agreement.
"Click, click."
With the sound of camera shutters clicking, Li Liye led Xiaoyouzi around the yard and took many photos.
"I love every single one of them." Li Liye flipped through the photos in his camera, liking them more and more with each look.
At this moment, Li Lan glanced at the time and frowned slightly: "Little Yuzu, we have to go."
Are you leaving?
Li Liye stopped, his eyes filled with reluctance: "I've only been filming for half an hour, and Xiaoyouzi is already leaving?"
In just half an hour, we walked through two courtyards, and there was another courtyard inside, and even a backyard!
Li Lan chuckled and said, "Cousin, I need to take Xiaoyouzi to Old Zhou's place to get something."
"Then I'll pack all these clothes for Xiaoyouzi to take with her." Li Liye shamelessly added Xiaoyouzi on WeChat, and then packed up several sets of clothes that he had designed that fit Xiaoyouzi's size.
Li Lan said, "How much? I'll transfer the money to you."
"No need, I've already given it to Xiaoyouzi." Li Liye looked at Xiaoyouzi with a smile.
Little Yuzu chuckled, "Thank you, Uncle Li."
"You're welcome, you're welcome. You must come back next time to wear my clothes and take pictures here." Li Liye seemed to have met a kindred spirit.
Finally, someone can wear the clothes he makes and look absolutely beautiful.
He absolutely had to post it on his WeChat Moments and brag about it!

Xiaoyouzi and Li Lan got into the car carrying large and small bags.
On the bus, Xiao Youzi, still dressed in Ming Dynasty Hanfu, had rosy cheeks: "I've had a great day!"
So many beautiful clothes, I'm so happy.
Li Lan chuckled, "I'm glad you like it. I'll bring you here again next time."
My older cousin's money is too good to pass up; I might as well take advantage of it.
"Uh-huh."
A dozen minutes later, the car turned around and drove into another street.
This street has an antique feel, with dark gray tiles and snow-white walls.
The door is made of wood and looks a bit old.
Some people even have water tanks in front of their doors, with lotus flowers planted inside.
But at this moment, all that remains are withered, yellowed branches.
The car didn't stop and kept driving forward, so Li Lan opened the sunroof.
Little Yuzu heard loudspeakers blaring all over the outside.
"Top-quality jade! Don't miss out!"
"Grade A jade, cheap and beautiful, come quickly!"
"Huge clearance sale! Lowest prices on everything! Money back guarantee if you don't like it!"
The noise completely ruined the quiet atmosphere of the ancient street, giving it a lively, bustling feel.
Little Yuzu curiously looked out the window.
Strings of jade bracelets were displayed there casually, seemingly unafraid of being coveted.
"It's very lively here. Old Zhou likes to carve jade here."
As Li Lan spoke, she drove the car inside.
The further you go in, the fewer the sounds become, but the more ancient trees grow inside the walls.
Little Yuzu asked curiously, "Is Old Zhou very amazing?"
"Of course, he is a top-notch jade carver and jewelry designer. His style leans towards Chinese classical, and he makes excellent jade buckles, pendants, and the like."
When it comes to Mr. Zhou, Li Lan seems to have endless things to say, and she keeps enthusiastically introducing him to Xiao Youzi.
Little Yuzu listened very attentively.
Li Lan continued, "Old Zhou really liked the piece of purple jade you asked me to bring last time. He said it was particularly beautiful and he wanted to keep the extra scraps."
"Just make the few I need."
Little Yuzu smiled sweetly: "I heard it's called Ice Type Violet, and I found it when I was mining jade in Saudi Arabia."
"By the way, Little Yuzu, is Saudi Arabia fun? I'd like to take Shuqin with me next time," Li Lan asked curiously.
