The little girl in a black down jacket sat on the swing, rubbed her ears with her hands wearing yellow gloves, and let out a mouthful of white mist.

A line of footprints extends from the door of the second-floor villa in the distance to this place. In addition, the snow is clean and flat, as if she is the only one in the world. This is a lonely swing, placed on the open space in front of the villa, surrounded by a short white wooden fence. A path is separated from the fence, and more than a dozen villas are scattered in the snow, making them look deserted and lonely.

It was not yet dawn, but the sky was already white. She stared at the white mountains in the east, only occasionally shrinking her neck so that the cold wind in the morning would come in.

The clouds behind the mountains changed from slightly white to light yellow, and then from light yellow to orange, making the light more dazzling. The sun finally revealed its head, so the entire clouds were coated with bright light and shadow, and the sky became vivid and gorgeous.

The increasingly intense light made the little girl lower her head slightly, and then sighed in a tone that was absolutely inconsistent with her age: "It's the New Year."

On January 22, 2015, the eleventh day after Yu Qingqing arrived on the other side of the ocean.

The child's adaptability seems to be much better than that of adults. In just a few days of comfortable life, her face became round and white again, and her hair became soft and shiny. Ye Zhixing tied her a ponytail, so the little girl looked clean and refreshing, especially liked.

However, there are few people here, and in a few days only Ye Zhixing can come into contact with. Although there are Internet and games, Ye Zhixing is like a real parent who is not allowed to touch her too much. However, she is obviously worried because the little girl has been worried in recent days and spends most of her time sitting alone on the swing in the snow, staring blankly.

However, Ye Zhixing had his own problems and had no time to put too much attention on Yu Qingqing.

In fact, the matter was a bit contrary to her original intention - she originally planned to use her own method to train Yu Qingqing to become her disciple or student, and pass on some things she had always treasured in her heart. However, now, the past plans have been disrupted and everything has become unknown.

But the only thing that comforts her is that at least they are from her hometown.

In such a strange and uncertain country, nothing can give people more comfort than the people in my hometown.

The sun jumped over the mountains, and the stretching snow-capped mountains turned orange. Yu Qingqing jumped off the swing, took off his gloves, leaned over and held a snowball on the ground with his wet little hands.

Then she looked around.

On the right side is an empty path, and there are several houses on the other end of the path. At night, she will see lights inside, which should be inhabited by someone. However, no one will come out, or they will only come out late at night.

There was a forest on the left and right sides. She didn't know what kind of tree it was, but its branches and vines covered a wide area. The branches were very low, and even the trunks were covered. Although the leaves had fallen in winter, it was still a vague piece of land in the morning light.

She thought about it, rolled the snowball a little bigger on the ground, held it with both hands, raised it high above her head, and threw it hard towards the bushes.

The snowball flew several meters away, drew an arc in the air, and penetrated the bushes.

Then she heard a scream: "Ah!"

It seemed that it was also a girl's voice. But Yu Qingqing was surprised - she didn't know when there was another person there.

However, her heart twitched slightly afterwards. Because this was the first time she had seen someone other than Ye Zhixing these days.

After the shouting, a red figure walked out from behind the bushes. While fiddling with the snow on his face in a slightly embarrassing manner, he pulled the clothes scrambled on the branches and said something to Yu Qingqing. But she was in English, and Yu Qingqing didn't understand. She felt that the other party might be angry, so she shouted timidly: "I'm sorry, I don't know there is someone there."

The person behind the bushes finally walked out with a stuttering bang - it was a little girl. She was about the same size as Yu Qingqing, maybe slightly taller. She was wearing a big red cloak and a hood on her head, looking very much like the "Little Red Riding Hood" in the fairy tale.

It's just not clear whether Little Red Riding Hood also has a head of blonde hair like her, which is burning sunlight. They pour out from both sides of the hood and spread on their chests, reflecting a gold-like light in the morning light.

But the little girl had just got rid of the shackles of the branches and said "Oh" again. Perhaps she was focusing on her face and clothes, her left foot tripped on her right foot, and her body leaned down—

Thump! Falling in the snow again.

Yu Qingqing was shocked!

Because she knew about "concussion"! She quickly ran over there with deep snow and shallow feet, and thought with great concern as she ran... Did I beat her into a concussion?

But when she just ran to the little girl, she saw her standing up and wave her hand: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, I don't matter!" This time she spoke Chinese. Although her pronunciation was not very standard, she could still understand it. But her tone sounded a bit strange, as if it was herself who did the wrong thing, not Yu Qingqing.

Qingqing was stunned and didn't know what to do. While watching her stand up staggeringly, she leaned out slightly - because the child's movements were really a bit reluctant, she was worried that she would trip her again and fall again.

But at least she regained her balance and randomly patted the snowmobi on her body, as if she was trying to show a decent and steady smile. This expression was a bit strange when she appeared on a teenage girl's face, but Yu Qingqing did feel this way.

It was like... the person in front of him was planning to meet with some big shot.

"Hello, I'm Theresa." Little Red Riding Hood reached out, "I'm your neighbor."

Her tone was serious, her blue eyes wide open. However, her eyelashes were trembling slightly, and it was not calm and composed no matter how she looked. However, Yu Qingqing seemed to be nervous because of the accent of the leaders meeting. After hesitating for a moment, he reached out and squeezed: "Uh... Hello, I am Yu Qingqing."

Teresa shook her hands, then looked around as if nothing had happened. She said nothing, "Well, I just passed by here. I came to visit you."

In fact, her lying skills are not very good... Of course, Yu Qingqing could see that she was actually hiding behind the bushes and observing herself secretly. Because she recalled something that happened two days ago - once she found that the branches of the bushes were shaking. At that time, she still thought it was a hare or a big bird, but now she thought it was definitely the one in front of her.

However, being peeped is no big deal. After all, the other party is also a girl like herself. And... she looks so beautiful. The first time she saw such white skin, which was so white that it was almost transparent. Such skin, combined with golden hair and sky blue eyes, only reminds people of one thing - a doll.

Therefore, Yu Qingqing felt a little joy in his heart and said, "Do you live in the building opposite the road? You can come here often if you have time in the future. I have always been here."

Teresa looked at her with a smile and pointed to the swing not far away: "I often came here to play before when you moved here."

Yu Qingqing was stunned for a moment and said embarrassedly: "That's it... Then I will give it to you when you come from now on."

However, Teresa shook her head and looked at the swing, with a strange look on her face: "No...I just need to look at it."

After standing in the snow for so long, Yu Qingqing felt a little cold, so he stamped his feet: "We can take turns playing. I get up early in the morning, and I will come out at this time. Then we..."

However, Teresa looked at the swing, pursed her lips, and suddenly asked, "What does it feel like to sit on it and swing?"

Qingqing was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly understood something. The Teresa, who would trip herself when walking... dared not swing on the swing?

She suddenly felt very sympathetic to her new friend. This shows that she did not dare to run around the mountains, nor did she dare to go up trees to dig bird nests, nor did she dare to go down the river to catch shrimps, nor did she dare to...

This is simply pitiful!

A soft feeling appeared in her little heart. After thinking about it, she suddenly took Teresa's hand - and the other party was obviously startled, but she didn't pull it back. Then Yu Qingqing pulled her to Qianqiu, and said as she walked, "Come on, I'll take you to play, I'll watch you next to you-"

Teresa was pulled by her and walked forward, intending to refuse. However, the swing was right in front of her, slightly swinging - this sense of temptation that she had always wanted to experience made her unable to move her mouth, and was eventually conquered by the adventurer, and was pulled to the swing by Yu Qingqing.

"Sit up and I'll push you slowly."

Yu Qingqing's tone seemed unquestionable. However, this also dispelled the slightest hesitation in Teresa. She tried to show herself that silly expression, stood in front of the swing for a while, turned around, and sat up carefully.

However, this action took a lot of effort - the thing was swaying around as soon as it hit someone. Although Yu Qingqing tried hard to press it next to him, Teresa almost fell off several times.

Such a busy experience gradually made the two little girls get closer, and Teresa didn't have the heart to pretend to be an adult. With a burst of cheerful shouts and screams, she finally sat on the swing, clutching the iron chain next to her with her hands, and her face was joyful and nervous.

Yu Qingqing stood beside her with a smile and said loudly: "Get ready, I'm going to push you!"

Teresa quickly said, "Slow down!"

So Qingqing grabbed the iron chain and shook it a little, and the swing began to freely. When it swung back, Qingqing added force again - the swing was swinging higher.

Teresa's face turned pale, but the surprise in her heart was reflected on her face. She held the iron chain tightly with both hands, feeling the sound of the wind began to roar in her ears. The ground under her feet quickly moved away and approached quickly, making her feel that she was about to fly.

So she finally shouted as she rose higher: "Ah—!"

Of course she was so happy. But Yu Qingqing was shocked-

Because the swing has only been swung for half...

However, this stimulation was enough to make Theresa so happy that she couldn't help herself. She swung her arms for half an hour, and when Qingqing pushed her arms sore - Teresa couldn't wave her legs by herself - she barely got enough of her addiction.

At this time, the friendship between the two seemed to have reached a new level. So Yu Qingqing planned to "show his skills" to Teresa. She climbed the iron chain and stood on the swing, while Teresa shouted nervously from the side: "Be careful!"

However, Qingqing was so brave that she could only smile proudly and began to stretch her body.

So in Teresa's eyes, the swing magically swung - and Yu Qingqing was standing on it!

She quickly took a few steps away, opened her eyes wide and watched Yu Qingqing's body sway higher and higher, and her hair drifted in the air with the wind. This image was so majestic - she never knew that the swing could be swung like this, swinging so high!

The two little girls screamed and heard a lot, but no one came out to see what happened. They played around the swing for two hours, but they were still not satisfied. In the end, they were sweating heavily, their hands and feet were sore, and they had to stop and sit on the swing to rest.

Yu Qingqing was really very happy - this kind of happiness seemed to have not been experiencing it for almost a year. However, the precocious little girl had learned to hide her sorrow and fear in her heart, and it was not until this moment that she could finally forget them temporarily and smiled happily.

Because of this happy experience, her favorability for Teresa became even greater. After the two of them were slightly relieved, Qingqing turned her face and asked her: "Are you hungry? Sister Ye made a lot of delicious food for me before going out yesterday - have you eaten roast chicken?"

Teresa thought for a while: “Uh…you mean fried chicken?”

"No!" Yu Qingqing jumped off the swing all of a sudden. So Teresa lost her balance and screamed and fell on her back, but Qingqing grabbed her and pulled her down, "You will know it's delicious after you eat-I'll take you home!"

At this time, Qingqing had recovered from the shyness he had when he first met, and her bold and lively personality was fully reflected. She pulled Teresa away like a little bully, and the "mature" image she had worked hard to create before was useless in the face of her aggressive enthusiasm, so she had to follow her home obediently.

Twenty minutes later, the two little guys were already sitting next to the dining table, eating all over.

The most surprising thing about Yu Qingqing is...

Not only did Teresa never play with a swing, she now looks like she has never eaten chicken! Because she would eat it while saying, "So it's the taste."

She felt that Teresa was referring to the difference between roast chicken and fried chicken - because when she asked her if it was better than fried chicken, she would say, "I don't know either."

Therefore, Yu Qingqing felt that she was particularly pitiful, and even felt that she had always lived a more unfortunate life than herself. What kind of parents wouldn't even give her chicken? But of course she didn't ask much. Because she had known that the community she lived in was a bit unusual. Whether it was Ye Zhixing's advice or her own observation, she realized that everyone here was special - even the little girl in front of her.

But just as she could be friends with Li Zhen in the grave, this bold and careful little girl wisely did not try to figure out something that others didn't want her to know.

The topic of chatting between children is very simple, it is nothing more than some games and things between friends. Qingqing felt that she should let the poor little girl know how fun the outside world was, so she told her about her experience in the countryside.

For example, she put some cooked rice grains in a small glass jar, tied a rope at the mouth of the jar, threw it into the stream, and then ran to catch dragonflies.

After playing for a while, I felt tired, so I ran to the water and quickly picked up the rope and lifted the glass jar - so I found that there were many panicked fish and shrimps trapped in the jar. If I were lucky, I would catch more than a dozen at a time.

For example, she would find a shallow slope with a gentle flow, pull some grass, and use grass to form a small "dam". The water can flow out slowly, but some stupid fish will be trapped in the dam. Then she would quickly grab the grass and throw them on the shore, so there would be small fish jumping out, lying on the ground and breathing.

Teresa was stupid when she heard it. It seemed that she knew for the first time that there were such bold and interesting games in the world. She couldn't understand some dialects with northern Chinese characteristics, but it did not prevent her from completing the scene in her mind based on her own guesses, and at the same time, she cooperated to make up for the various incredible amazes.

When Yu Qingqing mentioned that one day she picked up a dead snake on the road, Teresa's eyes were completely admiring her.

Then Qingqing's face dimmed a little: "Later I met a good friend."

She held her face with her greasy little hands and looked out the window in a daze: "I don't know how he is now, and if he has run out."

Teresa was licking the little flesh in the bones of the chicken wings with her tongue, and asked with her eyes narrowed, "Where will I go?"

Yu Qingqing thought for a while, looked at Teresa and whispered: "I tell you, my friend is not an ordinary person! He used to live in the grave!"

Teresa was stunned: "Ha?"

"One day I went to the mountain to play..." Yu Qingqing lowered her voice and began to talk about her experience of knowing Li Zhen in a mysterious tone. In fact, she had never mentioned this to the second person. However, Teresa in front of her was a girl of the same age as her, and she had indeed suppressed some things in her heart for too long. After more than a year of sad life, today she finally found a new friend happily. She seemed to think that she could open her heart to her without realizing it.
