So they went to Lu's Village, buried Anian and Li Siqing together, and solemnly erected two monuments for Xiaotupo.

The matter of the puppet came to an end for the time being. After that, Zhuang Yin set off to return to Lijingyuan, and Xie Qi went to Jinghuacheng.

To go to Lijingyuan, Jinghuacheng is the only way to go.

There is a beauty village on this road. In the beauty village, not only are there beauties like clouds, they are all moon-like and beautiful, and even the men are very handsome and handsome.

But among this group of beauties, there is an extremely ordinary-looking woman named Dongzhu, with freckles all over her face, and her facial features are second to none. She was born with a large black birthmark on her face.If it is said that there is no birthmark, it can be regarded as ugly at most, but with this birthmark, it looks really ugly.

She never took the initiative to talk to people, and when she had to talk, she lowered her head into the dust, not daring to look at others.Therefore, almost no one wants to associate with her.

Dongzhu lives in the most remote and easily overlooked corner of the village. She likes to go alone to pick flowers in the mountains and fields. In other people's yards, there are either beautiful peonies or cymbidium orchids. They are fresh and refined, charming but not charming. .In her small courtyard, there are large black mandalas and blue and yellow nymphs.

As for why she planted the fairy, it was because her great-grandmother's generation encountered bandits in the village. Thanks to Dongzhu's great-grandmother's quick wit, she used the fairy to make wine to subdue the bandits and save the whole village.

But many villagers have forgotten about this matter, they treat Dongzhu as a different kind, and she ignores it.

Dongzhu’s parents died young, and she was brought up by her grandmother. Now that her grandmother is old, she can’t speak, and her eyes are dim. Dongzhu hides in the hut and does some handicrafts, such as paper cutting, flower tying, embroidery, and simple sewing. Clothes, the finished products will be sold in the city to earn some meager income, which is used to subsidize the family.

On weekdays, she also has a hobby, reading.If she had any spare change, she would use it to buy books. Legendary tales, local miscellaneous records, poems and songs, ghosts and tales, all piled up in the small wooden cabinet.Since she was young, Dongzhu secretly went to the private school in the village to attend classes secretly. Without paper and pen, she used branches to draw on the ground seriously. Without books, she borrowed books from children with the candy she couldn't bear to eat.

Later, the teacher found out, and seeing how pitiful she was, he sighed, "You are a little girl, but she is more studious and inquisitive than a man. From now on, come in and listen to my lectures." Then he reserved a place in the private school for her. , also comes with a book, paper and pen.

The older she gets, the more inferior Dongzhu becomes, and she loathes her own face to the extreme every time she travels through the beautiful village of beautiful women.If a person doesn't even like himself, he can't force others to like him.

But there is one person who is different. When others want to stay away from Dongzhu, he likes to talk to Dongzhu instead. In his eyes, Dongzhu is a clever girl.

He is a foreigner who has just moved to Beauty Village. When they met for the first time, he was holding a folding fan, and his smile seemed to melt the ice in winter: "Hello, girl. On the sinking branch, the jade furnace sinks into the water and smokes , a branch full of flowers. Dare to ask the girl's name?"

Dong Zhu suddenly felt dizzy, her heart was beating wildly, she stared at her toes, kicked the pebbles at a loss, and said in a low voice, "Winter, Zhu, Dong Zhu."

Shen Zhi folded the fan with a "snap" and murmured: "Winter pearls and spring jade, wonderful, wonderful."

The person opposite is really handsome, Dongzhu can't help feeling ashamed of herself.

But they became friends, unbelievable.This matter is puzzling, and the beauties in the village can't figure it out, why does Shen Zhi always chat with Dongzhu instead of looking for herself? Is it because the rouge is not enough, or the clothes are not beautiful enough?
