Chapter 491 Everyone Calls Me 'Cinderella' 09
Gu Li cried for a long time in front of her mother's grave until it was dark, but no fairy godmother appeared.
Could it be that she came too early?
If it weren't for Crane's help, she would probably still be picking beans in the cramped kitchen.
The wind at night in early spring is no less strong than that in winter. Even if you wear warm clothes, you will feel cold after sitting cross-legged on the ground for two hours.
Gu Li, whose nose was almost running from the cold, could not help but cross her arms and began to recall the plot carefully.
Hey, why does it seem like Cinderella met the Fairy Godmother on the day of the ball because she missed the departure carriage?
So all her work was in vain?
Gu Li sniffed, held onto Hazel Tree and tried to stand up, but her legs were so numb that she fell to the ground again.
She whimpered and cried out.
Sitting cross-legged for a long time caused poor blood circulation and her legs became numb and she almost lost feeling.
Crane, who was hugging Cinderella's neck, shook his feathers and flew in front of Cinderella, "Cinderella, what's wrong with you? Don't cry, I can help you go to the prince's ball. I will help you. Don't cry."
Crane thought that Cinderella was crying because no one could help her go to the ball in the palace, and she ran to her mother's grave to seek comfort.
In fact, it can help her.
Gu Li lowered her head and rubbed her legs continuously to relieve the numbness and pain, and she had a thousand dirty words in her mind that she wanted to burst out.
Before even going to the palace, Gu Li had already started to hate this poor prince. She almost broke her beautiful legs for this ball.
Gu Li limped slowly towards the manor's annex building, where the lights were already on, with a little white dove flying beside her that was glowing white even in the dim night.
That night, before going to bed, Gu Li unconsciously asked Crane softly, "Do you think the fairy godmother you know will help me realize my wish to attend the ball-----"
Before she could finish her words, Cinderella fell into a sweet dream.
Crane stood on Cinderella's pillow with his two feet, and his claws accidentally touched Cinderella's soft golden hair. It was like stepping on burning coals, and he quickly retracted his claws.
It said, "Yes, as long as it's your wish, Cinderella!"
The point is her wish, not anyone else’s ball!
Gu Li slept until almost noon the next day. She seemed to have caught a cold, with a stuffy nose and dizziness. She propped herself up and saw Crane sitting on the windowsill, staring at the sky outside in a daze.
"Crane, what's wrong with you? Do you want to go out?" There is no bird that doesn't miss the sky.
As Cinderella spoke, Crane heard the change in her voice.
"What's wrong with you? Is your throat uncomfortable?"
"Well, I think I have a cold."
"Then lie down for a while. Are you hungry? I'll prepare something for you if you want to eat!"
Gu Li waved her hands, "I have no appetite, I want to drink some water!"
Gu Li got out of bed with difficulty, put on her dress and ran towards the main building.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Temanee did not play by the rules. Even though it was still noon, she took her two daughters on the carriage early and prepared to leave for the palace.
"Mother, I have sorted the soybeans and mung beans you gave me. You promised to take me to the dance." Gu Li pleaded while pulling on the door of the carriage.
"Let go. Look at what you look like now! How can you attend the palace ball dressed like this?"
Mrs. Temani had received the news from Mrs. Heidi that her stepdaughter had quickly sorted the beans again. She had set out early on purpose to get rid of Cinderella, who had no self-awareness.
Dusula hadn't seen her stepsister of noble birth for a long time. Seeing her in such a miserable state, she couldn't help but gloat over her misfortune. "That's right, let go quickly and don't dirty our carriage. We are going to the palace to attend Prince Henry's ball!"
Anastasia covered her rose-pink lips with a beautiful handkerchief and said, "Ella, it's not that we don't want to take you with us. It's that you didn't make preparations in the stipulated time. We are about to set off, but you are still in such a mess, with unkempt hair and a dirty face. Your mother really can't take care of you!"
Gu Li begged, "Then wait for me. I'll go back to wash and change clothes. It will be quick."
Anastasha looked at him coldly, "You want your mother and sisters to wait for you alone?"
"That's right. How can you, who don't know etiquette, ride in the same carriage with us?" Dusula impatiently tried to grab Cinderella's hand, "Let go of me, don't let me hit you!"
She spoke as if she knew etiquette.
Dusula pinched Cinderella's hand and said in a low voice, "Go back to your little attic. That's where you belong."
Gu Li was pushed to the ground. Madam Temani tapped the wall of the carriage with the handle of her fan and said, "Let's go!"
The horse snorted twice and broke into a trot.
After watching the magnificent carriage go away, Gu Li slowly got up from the ground.
The performance was finally over. After brushing off the dust on her butt, Gu Li walked back dizzy.
After taking off her outer coat, Gu Li fell on the bed again and touched her empty stomach. It seemed that she just remembered that there seemed to be someone missing in the room.
Oh no, there's a bird missing.
"Crane?"
Ran away from home?
"Crane?"
The next second, a little white dove flew in from the window.
"Cinderella, are you awake?"
Gu Li looked pale, and smiled at Crane, as if jokingly saying, "I woke up and found that you were gone. I thought you were gone too!"
Crane landed on the cabinet next to her bed. "I'm going to prepare some medicine for your cold. I won't leave you."
Cinderella smiled bitterly, "Thank you Crane for being with me."
Crane was acutely aware of Cinderella's depressed mood, and he moved his head restlessly, trying to figure out what was wrong with her.
A small bottle filled with light pink liquid appeared on the bedside. "Cinderella, this is the potion I prepared for you. Drink it and your cold will soon be cured!"
Gu Li raised her hand to take the medicine bottle, and Crane noticed the scratches on Cinderella's palm.
It flapped its wings and jumped, "Cinderella, are you hurt? What happened to your palm?"
Cinderella smiled nonchalantly, held the vial and drank the medicine in one gulp.
It’s sweet and quite delicious.
Seeing that Crane was about to explode without an answer, she explained, "Mrs. Temani took her two step sisters to the dance, and they didn't want to take me. I begged them but was rejected, and Dusula pushed me down."
She comforted, "It's just a minor scrape, it's okay. Don't worry Crane!"
Crane was not comforted, and kept circling around Cinderella, "How can I help you, Cinderella? I can help you."
Gu Li, who was sitting on the bed, looked at the little white dove with amusement, stretched out a finger and tapped its little head, "Crane, it would be great if you were a human!"
Crane was stunned, his wings stopped in mid-air, and then the white dove fell into the duvet with Cinderella's body temperature with a clatter.
Dizzy again!
