The little one's purse connects the two worlds, turning a desolate village into a paradise.

Ya Ya snuggled into her little quilt. The kang (heated brick bed) was warm and cozy. The whole village was quiet. At night, only Grandma Liu's kang was still lit.

Normally she would still be strolling around the morning market looking for new and useful items at this time, but now that she's in bed early, she can't fall asleep.

Grandma Liu was sleeping more soundly than usual, perhaps because she had drunk the milk powder she had brought back; her breathing was light and long.

A faint light shone through the window.

Ya Ya touched the fluffy leopard-print blanket, opened her eyes and counted the chicks in her mind, one, two, three... As she counted, her eyelids gradually became heavy, and she fell asleep without realizing it.

The small pouch hanging on her chest flashed with a very faint light, then disappeared in an instant.

……

After dinner, He Miao went to Chen Lei's two-dollar store early. They were just regular customers and store owners before. Although they were more familiar with each other now because of Ya Ya, He Miao couldn't bring herself to sit in the store and wait without doing anything.

I simply grabbed a small plastic basket and went to the jewelry section to pick out small hair clips and hair ties.

When she first met Ya Ya, she noticed that the little one hadn't bought any accessories, only a box of colorful hair ties. She clearly loved those brightly colored and cute little hair accessories, but stubbornly refused to buy them.

Ten days passed in a flash, and there was still no lively decoration on Ya Ya's head. While waiting, she focused on picking out decorations for Ya Ya in the store.

A pair of blue-bordered, red-checkered, bow-adorned puppy hair clips; cute and playful, buy them!

I crocheted a red and white flower hair clip. It's fluffy and a really vibrant red. It matches Ya Ya's clothes perfectly. I bought it.

A pair of denim blue hair clips adorned with small cherries—fresh and simple, I'll buy them.

A pair of cute bunny hair clips with bows, so adorable, I'll take them.

The light yellow and light green checkered watermelon-decorated hair clip looks so sweet, like wearing the unpredictable summer breeze. I'll buy it.

The joy of the two-dollar store is fully embodied at this moment.

After picking out her hair clips, she went to look at hair ties.

He Miao immediately took a liking to a pair of blue-ringed pink bow hair ties. They were a light, earthy pink, and she took two pairs, keeping one for herself.

Colorful sunflower hair ties and yellow and blue star hair ties fell one after another into the small basket.

While browsing in a corner, He Miao spotted a bunch of animal-themed hair ties, and her eyes lit up.

Each hair tie is small, exquisite, cute, and has a soft, feminine color scheme.

I bought them all: a pink bunny with rosy cheeks, a yellow puppy with a big bow on its head, and a big white goose with a small bow around its neck.

Imagine how adorable these little hair ties would look tied around Ya Ya's little pigtails.

He Miao bought herself two more sets of armor and carried the basket back home, just in time to see Ya Ya pulling a small cart into the door.

Today, the cart only contained straw sandals.

This morning, Xiaodouzi picked some wild onions again, wanting to bring them to Yaya to exchange for money, but Grandma Liu stopped her. Wild onions have a strong smell, and mixing them with straw sandals would make the sandals lose their natural grassy fragrance.

Little Bean, who missed the opportunity to contribute today: o(╥﹏╥)o

The three stall owners eagerly awaiting their arrival: o(╥﹏╥)o

He Miao saw Ya Ya come in and quickly went to greet her, gently placing the small basket in her hand on the cashier's counter. She first said to Chen Lei, "Help me settle the bill."

After paying, she bent down and handed the small bag containing the hair accessories to Ya Ya, her eyes filled with anticipation. "How did it go? Did Grandma say it could be made?"

As soon as Ya Ya entered, she greeted the two of them, obediently taking the small bag He Miao handed her. Then, her round eyes crinkled with a smile: "Yes, we can make it! Grandma said it's okay, and we've already made it!"

Her little face was full of pride, "Everyone made them according to the patterns. Grandma checked every single pair carefully. Sister He Miao, look!"

After speaking, the little guy grabbed the buckle on the stroller box with his little hand and gently lifted it up with a "click".

One by one, the straw sandals carefully packed in transparent plastic bags came into He Miao's view.

He Miao was completely stunned.

I was originally planning to come today to confirm if it could be done, and if so, I'd have Yuqing transfer half of the deposit. But who knew that not only could it be done, it was all done in just one day!

She carefully picked up a pair of shoes. The fine grass fibers were woven in a dense and even pattern, with clean and neat lines. Even the straps were made soft, flexible, and exquisite. She posted them online, calling them high-end custom-made handcrafted items.

Even Chen Lei, who doesn't usually pay much attention to women's shoe styles and has no aesthetic sense when he sees these shoes, couldn't help but exclaim, "My God... the quality is absolutely amazing!"

He Miao was both surprised and delighted, and raised her hand to press her chest.

She quickly reached out to close the box for Ya Ya, then immediately pulled out her phone and called Su Yuqing via WeChat. Her voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement: "Yuqing! Come quick! The shoes you ordered are all finished! Come and see the samples to see if there's anything that needs to be changed."

On the other end of the phone, Su Yuqing looked shocked. "What? It's finished so quickly? Thirteen designs, and it's only been one day? Really?"

"I'm coming right now, wait for me!"

After hanging up the WeChat call, He Miao looked at Ya Ya, who was holding onto the stroller. "Ya Ya, Uncle's shop is still open. Can you go to your sister's house with her? It's not far away, just a short walk."

"When my sister's friend comes over, we'll all be at the door and it will affect my uncle's business."

If it were just the two of them, it would be fine. But with Su Yuqing and the three of them in a small car, it would not only be inconvenient to talk, but they would also block half of the two-dollar store's road. They couldn't very well kick Chen Lei out and let them occupy the cashier's counter.

Going to my sister's house?!

Ya Ya's eyes lit up. "Really? What's the fairy sister's house like? Does she live on the clouds? Does she live in a grand palace like Taiyi Zhenren?"

The little one hesitated for less than five seconds before nodding vigorously, "I want to go! Ya Ya wants to go to her sister's house!"

She was able to visit the fairy sister's house, and when she returned to the village, she could brag to Xiaodouzi, Xiaoshuanzi, the village chief, grandpa, and grandma that she had been to the fairy sister's palace!
