Xue wrinkled her little nose, trying to break free from Hua's embrace, "I'm fine, mom, let me go!"

Hua didn't let go of the snow, and held her tightly to check the snow up and down. She was relieved, and began to blame: "Didn't Mom say many times, don't run into the deep mountains alone, if..."

She gritted her teeth, remembering the despair when she saw 'his' body that rainy night, her voice couldn't help but choked up, "If something happens to you, what will my mother do?"

Xue froze for a moment, she gave up struggling, and turned her head helplessly at Bai Chuan Ma Xing for help.

"...Mom... don't cry, hug." Yu Yu, who had been following Hua, came out from behind Hua, silently hugging Hua's face, and comforted him clumsily.

"Please comfort Aunt Hua well." She opened her mouth silently, and Bai Chuan Maxing said to Xue with her lips.

Xue understood Bai Chuan Maxing's meaning at once, she squeezed a bit, and squeezed Yuhuan to hug Hua's neck.

Learning how Hua often coaxed her, Xue slowly patted Hua's back, "Mom, next time... I won't go to the mountains again, don't cry, okay?"

Xue, who has always been helpless with tears, hesitated for a moment, she still gritted her teeth and promised reluctantly.

"Well, if you don't go, it's fine if you don't go." Hua wiped away the tears that didn't exist in the corners of her eyes, she hugged Xue's young body instead, and muttered to herself.

After being hugged by Hua for a while, Xue became impatient and wanted to move. She twisted and wanted to get out of the hug which was really hot for the current weather, "...Mom, it's so hot to hug like this."

"I'm sorry," Hua was startled, she let go of the snow, stood up and touched Yu's head, which was looking up at her quietly, "Come and eat pudding, I also have black tea."

Xue's eyes lit up, and she immediately ran to the coffee table with her calves, put her hands on the table and looked at the yellow pudding, and cheered, "I'm starting!"

"It's really snow, you can only eat it after washing your hands. Yu, you go wash your hands with apricot jam. Mom is going to do the laundry." Rubbing Yu's hair that was tightly stuck to her side, the flower turned him to Pushed forward.

Xue pouted, and took the initiative to hold Bai Chuan Maxing's hand, "I'll take you to wash your hands, I don't need this coward." She cast a contemptuous glance at Yu who was pushed out and then ran back to hide beside Hua.

Bai Chuan Maxing paused, she turned her head and glanced timidly at the rain here.She wrapped Xue's hand behind her back, and led her to Yu, who unconsciously tightened Hua's clothes.

"Come with us, Mr. Yu." Reaching out to Yu, Makoto Shirakawa smiled and revealed the dimples on her face.

She is not very familiar with Yu, and she hasn't talked to Yu a few times.But every time she played with Xue, Xue would force Yu to join them.

No matter how reluctant Yu is, she still obediently follows them every time. In Bai Chuan Maxing's impression, the relationship between Xue and Yu is very good.How did it become like this?Could it be that there is something wrong?

Bai Chuan Maxing looked at Xue's froze expression for a moment, and then at Yu's subconsciously looking at Xue.She smiled slightly, and it really was awkward.

While holding Xue's hand, Shirakawa Makoto reached out to catch Yu's dodging little hand.After she caught it with Hua's help, she couldn't let her go.

"Yu-jun, Xue-chan, let's wash our hands together." Bai Chuan Maxing stood between them and said to the two of them.

Led by Xue, they came to the sink. Bai Chuan Maxing stood on the small bench and turned her face slightly to peek impatiently. She dragged Yu onto the only small stool, and helped to wash the snow on his hands with a look of disgust. .

Pursing her lips and secretly smiling, Bai Chuan Makoto sighed.Sure enough, no matter how awkward the two siblings were, they would still make up.

After eating the pudding, the snow was spread in front of the electric fan, drying the fleshy belly.He enjoyed the wind blowing from the electric fan comfortably, although it was not very strong.

Bai Chuan Maxing glanced at Yu who was sitting there alone playing with building blocks, she walked lightly and squatted down next to him, "Mr. Yu, what are you doing? A castle?"

The building block slipped in his hand and almost fell out of his hand, Yu shuddered all over, he turned his head in astonishment and glanced at Mako Shirakawa, who had a slightly innocent expression.

After hesitating for a while, he lowered his eyes and fiddled with the triangular building blocks in his hands, then nodded sullenly, "Well...it's a castle."

Originally, Bai Chuan Maxing, who had never thought that Yu, who was restrained by nature, would answer her question, was taken aback. She raised the corners of her lips, "Did Aunt Hua buy this?"

Taking a peek at Bai Chuan Makoto's side face, Yu shook her head, "Mom made it out of the wood that Grandpa Hosokawa sent, and then painted it."

"Hey, Aunt Hua is so amazing!" Picking up a square building block painted with red paint, Bai Chuan Makoto rubbed it a few times and smiled, "It really is amazing!"

"Hmm..." Because her mother was praised by others, Yu couldn't help being a little proud and blushing.

Xue heard the voice from Yu's side, she sat up straight like a carp, and not to be outdone, ran to Bai Chuan Maxing's side, holding her arm.

"Really! Let's go see Lily together!" She glared at Yu, a little dissatisfied that her little friend was taken away by others, even her younger brother.

Makoto Bai Chuan was forced to stand up by Sheila, she touched her pocket subconsciously, "Shall I go now?" Fortunately, she also took the gift for Lily with her when she went out.

"Of course! Really! Let's go quickly! Lily must miss us very much too." Xue took Bai Chuan Makoto's hand and was about to run out, but she took a step before she was dragged back by Bai Chuan Makoto.

"That... let's take Mr. Yu with us." Pointing to Yu who stood up with them and held the hem of his clothes, "Lily will definitely be very happy to meet new friends."

Xue turned her head and looked at Yu, she snorted and rejected Bai Chuan Maxing, "I don't want it! Lily's matter is obviously a little secret between me and Zhenzhen you! Why do you want him to go?!"

The full name of Lily that Xue and Shirakawa Mako said was Arrietty, and she was a member of the little people.Of course, the strange racial names of the little people are just Xue's one-sided name. In fact, there is no standard name for Arrietty and the others' races, and they are usually called directly by the little people.

And it was just a coincidence that Shirakawa Mako and the others met Arrietty——an inevitable encounter.

That day, Shirakawa Makoto and Xue went to the mountains to play, and then saw Arrietty who was being chased by a wild cat on the way.

The sharp-eyed Xue immediately saw Arrietty, who was less than ten centimeters tall. Playfully, she immediately turned into a wolf to scare away the wild cat, and even saved the villain from the wild cat's claws.

As for Arrietty, just as she was about to thank her, she found that she was seen by two humans who were told by her parents not to be seen by humans. Even if she was saved by these two humans, she was still scared. His face was pale.

After learning that Xue was a werewolf later, Arrietty breathed a sigh of relief.Feeling that she also mastered a great little secret, she then made an agreement with Shirakawa Makoto that no one should tell these secrets to others, and the three of them became good friends logically.

"But Aunt Hua, she's going to go to the fields to do farm work now." Bai Chuan Maxing frowned, and she looked around the unobstructed courtyard outside, "Look, Aunt Hua has already dried her clothes, Xue Jiang , do you want Jun Yu to stay at home alone?"

Xue didn't believe it, she ran outside and turned around in frustration, and found that the flowers were really gone, she ran back again, hesitating, "But...wouldn't it be good for us to bring the rain? Lily... she..."

Hearing what Xue said, Bai Chuan Maxing also began to hesitate.Arrietty's matter was originally a little secret between the two of them. After thinking about it, she discussed: "Well, let's take Mr. Yu there, and then ask Lily if she would like to see Mr. Yu. If she doesn't If we don’t, we won’t take him. Is this okay? Xuejiang, Mr. Yu.”

Yu naturally had no objection, rather he was eager to go out with Bai Chuan Maxing and his sister, and even hoped to use this opportunity to reconcile with Xue.

"...Okay, but if Lily doesn't want to see Yu, we can come back..." Xue struggled for a while, and the worry about leaving Yu alone at home was still greater than the anger between Yu and Yu.

***

The place where Hua went to the field happened to be in the same direction as the place where Arrietty lived. After talking to Hua, Xue took Mako Shirakawa and Yu to go out under Hua's worry-free instructions.

Under the scorching sun, Bai Chuan Ma Xing, Xue and Yu walked on the path in the field without the shade of trees.

The sun above the head was so big that even the bouncing and lively snow fell, like an eggplant beaten by frost.

She glanced angrily at the dazzling sun, took Bai Chuan Makoto's hand and led her into the nearby bushes, "Really, let's take a shortcut."

"Huh? Wait!" Bai Chuan Maxing subconsciously grabbed Yu's hand behind her before she could react, and when she came back to her senses, she found that she was already in the woods.

The tall trees that cover the sky perfectly cover most of the sunlight with their leaves, casting a large area of ​​shadow.The sunlight passing through the layers of green leaves seems to be filtered through a sieve, like golden streams.

Looking around the woods, Bai Chuan Ma Xing held Yu and followed closely behind Xue, who was familiar with the road, "Xue Jiang, do you know the road?"

"I know you! I've walked here many times, and I promise I won't lead you the wrong way." Xue patted her small chest and vowed, "Even if I remember the wrong way, I can still ask the person I left before. The smell that comes down follows it."

"..." Hearing what she said, Bai Chuan Maxing suddenly had a bad feeling, and swallowed hard, "You wouldn't..."

Bai Chuan Maxing didn't say the second half of the sentence, if Xue really left a scent in the woods as she thought...she thought she would be... a little hard to say.

As for the method that Shirakawa Maakyo thought of leaving a smell that she couldn't explain in words, you can refer to what the dog did to leave a smell on the ground.

Xue glanced at Bai Chuan Ma Xing strangely, she put her waist in, "Really, don't always speak half of what you say!" After a pause, she suddenly understood the meaning of what Bai Chuan Ma Xing didn't say in the second half. He blushed and defended himself: "That's not true! Last time I put some mint grass I picked on the road here!"

"Oh, so that's how it is." Bai Chuan Maxing nodded suddenly, making Xue feel no sense of accomplishment when she was misunderstood and then found out the truth.

After burying their heads and walking for a while, the three of them walked through the bushes, and suddenly there was a bright light in front of them, and their narrow vision suddenly became brighter.

Xiang was wearing thin pajamas and standing in a flower pot watering the flowers. He heard the rustling sound from the bushes by the courtyard, and walked a few steps there in surprise. He saw the leaves in his hair and looked embarrassed. The unbearable three people of Shirakawa Mako.

Unconsciously glanced at the unoccupied window, Xiang sized them up for a while, and then asked: "May I ask who you are...?"
