    ?

    Fang Xiaoyuan rubbed her eyes vigorously, reconfirming that she was not mistaken.  She hurriedly jumped off the wicker chair and ran towards the cabin.

    This simple wooden house was built by grandma herself. It is made of many wooden boards of different sizes. It has no windows, and only a one-meter-high doorway is left for people to go in and out to get things. It is dark inside.  If it wasn't for Xiao Yan staying inside, Fang Xiaoyuan would never have approached this wooden house.

    She bent down and got into the wooden house, blinking her eyes and staring at Xiaoyan, "Why are you here?"

    Xiao Yan showed a troubled expression, "I went out to play too much last night, I forgot the time, and I couldn't go back before the chimney closed, so I was temporarily trapped here." Saying this, it scratched its head embarrassingly,  "I was worried about being seen, so I kept hiding."

    Fang Xiaoyuan was surprised, she never knew the chimney could be closed.  Even if she could, she had never seen anyone climb up and down the roof to close the chimney.  She poked her head out of the doorway and looked up, and found that the tall chimney was standing in place, without any change.

    "Then how can I help you? Should I climb up to open it?" Fang Xiaoyuan asked.

    Xiao Yan shook her head, "It's useless, the chimney was sealed with a spell by the head of the garden, and it can't be opened through the methods of the human world. Every day when the sun rises, the spell takes effect, and the chimney will automatically close until after dark  It will only be turned on again. I have tried various methods, and none of them work."

    Fang Xiaoyuan understood, the reason why the director of the Fairy World did this must be to prevent curious fairies like Xiaoyan from sneaking into the human world. Unexpectedly, not only did its spell not have the desired effect, but it also  Leave the little smoke here.  When she was helping to figure out a way, she suddenly heard grandma calling her name.

    "Yuanyuan! Where did this kid go?" The voice was getting closer and closer, as if it was coming in this direction.  Fang Xiaoyuan lightly pressed Xiaoyan's shoulder, signaling it to stay here and not move, and got out of the cabin by herself.

    Seeing her coming out of the cabin, grandma was startled, "Yuanyuan, why did you come into this room? It's dirty and dusty, come out quickly." She said, pulling Fang Xiaoyuan's arm and  She moved aside, intending to pass her into the cabin.

    Fang Xiaoyuan hurriedly blocked her way, "Grandma, what do you want? Let me help you find it."

    Grandma glanced at her and didn't pay much attention to it, "I'm looking for something to clean up the vegetable garden, where do you know it. If you're really bored, go inside and watch TV."

    Fang Xiaoyuan couldn't stop her, and in the blink of an eye, grandma had bent over quickly and entered the wooden house. She was so frightened that she quickly covered her mouth, not daring to think about what would happen to grandma after she saw Xiao Yan.  For adults, smoke is lifeless, let alone talking.

    But a few seconds passed, and nothing happened, only the sound of "ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping" from grandma looking for tools.

    Fang Xiaoyuan took a step forward and looked inside.  The wooden house is only more than three square meters, and the head can be seen at a glance, and there is no place to hide at all.  Xiao Yan is currently huddled in the corner, almost face to face with the grandma who is squatting next to her looking for something.

    Soon, grandma found a suitable tool, got out of the wooden house, and patted the dust on her body.  Turning his head, he found that Fang Xiaoyuan was still standing there, "Yuanyuan, what are you doing standing here all this time? You don't want to help me with farm work, do you?"

    Fang Xiaoyuan shook his head slowly, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Xiao Yan who had followed grandma out of the wooden house.  She saw Xiaoyan cautiously bypassing grandma, coming to her side lightly, and looking up at grandma like her.  The strange thing is, grandma still only stared at Fang Xiaoyuan as if she didn't see Xiao Yan.

    "It's hot outside, go inside, I've cut the watermelon for you, and it's on the table." Grandma said, then turned and walked towards the vegetable garden, leaving the two of them standing on the ground and looking at each other.

    "She can't see you." Fang Xiaoyuan arched the back of her hand, and whispered in Xiao Yan's ear, feeling secretly happy.  Since grandma can't see Xiaoyan, it doesn't have to hide like before.

    Xiaoyan's gaze followed her grandma's back all the way, until she entered the vegetable garden before turning her head and asking Fang Xiaoyuan, "Is watermelon delicious?"

    Fang Xiaoyuan moved a small bench and placed it next to his own, picked the biggest and reddest piece of watermelon on the plate and handed it to Xiao Yan, "Watermelon is the most suitable fruit for summer, it quenches your thirst, you can try it."

    Xiaoyan moved the watermelon to her mouth suspiciously, and hesitated for a while before taking a bite.  As a veritable elf, she had never eaten food from the human world, and this was the first time she had ever eaten.  Following Fang Xiaoyuan's example, she stuffed the pointed end of the watermelon into her mouth, bit it hard, and the sweet juice overflowed instantly, filling its mouth.  SmallYan's eyes were wide open, staring at the watermelon in his hand, and exclaimed, "There are such delicious things in the world!"

    Fang Xiaoyuan, who was sitting on the sidelines watching the excitement, giggled, "It's not a big deal, you will definitely jump up in surprise when you eat the braised pork ribs."  Swept away, quickly replaced by this fresher pleasure.

    They chatted while eating watermelon, and only temporarily shut their mouths when grandma came into the house to pick up things, and when the main room became quiet again, they laughed unscrupulously again.  Fang Xiaoyuan was very happy, now she not only has one friend, but also a few goblin friends that no one else can see.  Such a novel thing is not something that can be encountered by just anyone, and she now feels that she is a very lucky one.

    "Bang bang!" There was a knock on the door that was not too loud, Fang Xiaoyuan turned to look at the grandma who was still busy in the yard, got up and came to the door.  Through the glass, she saw that standing outside the door was Zhou Yangyang who just ran away from here in the morning, and hurriedly opened the door.

    Zhou Yangyang's expression was a bit cramped, he kept stirring his fingers, and looked at Fang Xiaoyuan with flickering eyes, "It's almost lunch time, my mother asked me to take the aluminum basin back."

    "Aluminum basin" Fang Xiaoyuan remembered that he had left in a hurry in the morning, and the aluminum basin used to hold soy milk was still on the stove.  She walked over, picked up the aluminum basin that had been cleaned by grandma, and handed it to Zhou Yangyang.  "Thank you for the soy milk." In fact, Fang Xiaoyuan wanted to apologize to him, although she still didn't know what was wrong with her, but it was wrong to make others unhappy.  The words suddenly turned into thanks, and she didn't know how to tell Zhou Yangyang that she had no malicious intentions.

    "You're welcome." Zhou Yangyang whispered.

    Fang Xiaoyuan was about to close the door when he was suddenly blocked by his outstretched arm.  Looking over Fang Xiaoyuan's shoulders, Zhou Yangyang's eyes fell on Xiao Yan who was sitting at the low table in the middle of the main room, gnawing watermelon.  "Who is that?"

    As soon as these words came out, the watermelon in Xiaoyan's hand almost fell to the ground.  It didn't expect that it would be seen, and it was obviously too late to think of hiding now.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
