Chapter 88 - CHAPTER. 88

Lou Che narrowed his eyes and was just about to answer the provocation of the person when Gu Mian had already taken the lead a few steps to walk to the little boy. She bent down slightly and handed the lifelike bamboo dragonfly to the little boy.

When Gu Mian was a child, she followed the old man out for a long time, so she made things very well by hand. All the small objects that came out of her hand seemed to be alive and vivid.

The little boy's eyes brightened after seeing the bamboo dragonfly. The village was so backward and there was no place where they sold toys. So the little boy had seen this cute thing for the first time since he was born.

Lou Che was as surprised as the little boy.

Gu Mian seemed to harbor endless treasures, waiting for him to dig.

Lou Che put down the task and looked at her relaxedly.

Gu Mian saw the desire in the little boy's eyes. She smiled slightly, raised the little boy's hand and carefully placed the bamboo dragonfly on the little boy's palm, "This is for you."

The little boy opened his mouth, struggled in his heart, but finally failed to reject the bamboo dragonfly.

He carefully wrapped the bamboo dragonfly with his hands, as if he was afraid that he would accidentally damage this thing.

Gu Mian smiled and began to teach the little boy how to play with this bamboo dragonfly, "Rub it with your hand, then let go and it can fly."

When the little boy heard the words, his eyes burst into a strong surprise.

After the little boy succeeded once, Gu Mian said, "Yes, that's it."

After playing with it a few times, Gu Mian tilted her head and asked, "Do you like little rabbits? Or little tigers?"

The little boy bit his lower lip and asked, "Can I like them all?"

Gu Mian smiled and the afterglow of the sunset fell on her eyes, emitting a faint light.

Her face was beautiful in the setting sun, better than the best scenery there.

Lou Che kept looking at her. In the next second, he heard Gu Mian say to the little boy, "Of course."

Gu Mian took a few leaves and then started to make a little rabbit and little tiger in front of everyone.

Li Xiaohe held her chin with both hands and squatted beside Gu Mian. While watching Gu Mian's hands, she said in awe, "Wow, I didn't expect you to have this skill."

Gu Mian hummed casually, "I learned it when I was bored when I was a child."

She was very wild when she was a child. She did things other children wouldn't do but not do things others did.

She didn't expect that the toys she learned to make would come in handy.

There was a saying in ancient times that it was always good to have more skills. What one learns would be useful someday.

The little boy sat beside Gu Mian eagerly, staring at the little rabbit in her hand.

Gu Mian's hands worked really fast. She had made many things when she was a child. So even after many years, her body remembered the process of making it. Sometimes, she didn't even have to think about it. Her body automatically made the moves.

As everyone watched her fingers flipping, a lifelike little rabbit stood pretty on her palm.

Gu Mian handed the little rabbit to the little boy, "For you."

The little boy blinked and said thank you to Gu Mian shyly for the first time.

Gu Mian waved her hand carelessly, "You're welcome."

After making the rabbit, Gu Mian moved quickly to make a tiger.

This time, Gu Mian didn't need to say anything. The little boy took the little tiger directly from her because he was afraid that she would regret it and want it back.

He placed the three small toys made of leaves on the rolled up clothes like a great treasure.

There was dust on the leaves. Gu Mian clapped her hands and said slowly, "I can also make mice, giraffes and turtles. It's more complicated. I can also make sailboats and trees."

"…"

Every time Gu Mian said a word, the little boy's eyes brightened.

He was so excited that he stammered, "Then…can you make them?"

Gu Mian smiled, "Yes."

As soon as the little boy breathed a sigh of relief, Gu Mian said the following sentence slowly, "But not now."

The little boy was taken aback and asked, "Why? Why not?"

He really liked these toys.

He had never seen these things.

He wanted all the things Gu Mian said. If there were many, he could also give them to his playmates. They would love it when they see it.

Gu Mian shrugged helplessly, "Because… it's going to be dinner soon, I am hungry and I will have no strength if I don't eat."

The little boy originally thought it was a serious reason. But as soon as he heard that, he stood up while still holding his treasures firmly with one hand and patted his ass casually with the other, "It's easy, my Grandma is already cooking. Can't you just come and eat with us?"
