A Thousand Faces of Grace

Chapter 24 Falling into the Water (1)

Xiao Muli concentrated on embroidering the waistband, until a white, thin, but quick and powerful hand suddenly pulled the waistband out of her knees, only then did the dazed brother come back to his senses, and opened a pair of dull eyes Looking at this group of uninvited guests.

Seeing someone he knew, he showed a silly smile and called out, "Sister Yu Rui!"

"Who is your older sister, and she doesn't stick her head out to look at her stupid face!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yurui snorted, seeing Xiao Muli twitching the corner of his mouth and about to cry, with a disgusted expression on his face.

Cry, cry, cry, you know how to cry, it's really annoying!
Xiao Yurui said impatiently in her heart.

"Is this belt of yours for King Junque?"

Not wanting to see the disgusting cry of a fool, Xiao Yurui changed the subject and went straight to the point.

"Yeah, sister Yu Rui thinks Mu Lixiu looks pretty?"

As soon as the husband was mentioned, Xiao Muli immediately jumped up, with a silly smile of anticipation on his face, and asked foolishly.

Xiao Yurui raised the lapel to her eyes, looked at it carefully for a moment, twitched the corner of her mouth, and said with a contemptuous smile: "But what do you think, Miss Ben, this lapel is more suitable for a stupid parrot like you?" Sister Muli must be embroidering the lapel every day to reflect that parrot, right?"

"Sister, how do you know? Mu Li did embroider for the parrot."

Xiao Muli was very happy to hear that his story was rightly told, and replied excitedly, looking very silly and dumbfounded.

After saying this sentence, she came to her senses and realized that Xiao Yurui said her parrot was stupid, so she hastily distinguished: "But Caier is not a stupid parrot, Caier is smart!"

"That's it! Why don't you just throw this lapel into the pond and see if your clever Cai'er can find it for you!"

Xiao Yurui twitched the corner of her mouth, revealing a cold smile, loosened her fingers, and the waistband, which was as colorful as Cai'er's fur, floated down towards the pond!

"Ah! I'm sorry, sister Muli, I just wanted to play a joke on you just now, but I accidentally shook my hand!"

"My girdle!"

Two voices sounded at the same time, Xiao Muli threw himself towards the waist belt regardless of everything else.

Seeing this, Xiao Yurui pulled a cold smile from the corner of his mouth, and quickly stretched out his embroidered legs. Xiao Muli was unsteady, his center of gravity shifted forward, and he was about to fall into the pond.

But although she was stupid, her instinctive reaction in a hurry was no slower than others. She stretched out her hands and grabbed Xiao Yurui's sleeve corners.

Unprepared, Xiao Yurui was dragged towards the pond by Xiao Muli. Just as he realized it, he wanted to use lightness kung fu, but his feet happened to step on the stones that Xiao Muli was playing with.

Kong has martial arts but has nowhere to use his strength, his foot slipped, and with a plop, he fell into the pond.

But Xiao Muli lay safely on the edge of the pond, the place where she fell happened to be free of stones, although the fall was not light, she was not hurt.

Seeing this, Lao Lu, who was hiding aside, was very puzzled. Judging by the situation just now, the third lady must not be able to avoid falling into the water, so why is she safe and sound now?
After staring intently for a while, I realized that there was a mess of thick threads tied to Miss San's legs, and the threads were tightly stretched, just to prevent her from falling into the water.One end of the thread was tied to the wooden chair leg, and a colorful parrot was pecking at the thick thread with its sharp beak, flying back and forth cheerfully, winding the thick thread between Miss San's leg and the chair leg, busy Very happy.

Old Lu suddenly understood that it was the parrot that saved the third lady, but he didn't know if the parrot did it unintentionally or on purpose?If it's the latter, then this parrot is a big deal.
