Shepherdess and Chimney Sweeper

In a little friend's room, there is an old wooden cabinet. In the center of the wooden cabinet is carved a man, whom everyone calls General Croissant. In the room, there are also all kinds of dolls, including the shepherdess and his grandfather, and a young man who sweeps the chimney.

One day, General Sheephorn said that he would marry a shepherdess as his wife, which startled the shepherdess. She said, "I already have someone I like."

However, the shepherdess's grandfather agreed to the marriage for the simple reason that General Sheephorn was carved from good oak, and there were many gold and silver treasures in the wooden cabinet. Besides, he is the grandfather, and he should have the final say.

The shepherdess didn't agree, how could she be willing to stay in the dark wooden closet all day? She had to pin her hopes on the young man who swept the chimney, because this young man was the one she really liked in her heart. General Sheep Horn heard that her grandfather had agreed to the marriage and fell asleep happily. Grandpa? Slept too. Isn't this a great opportunity? The shepherdess pulled the young man and ran, but where did she escape?

The young man said, "Well, let's get into the stove and escape through the chimney. I know this way very well, and none of them will find us. But you must be brave."

At this time, both Grandpa and General Sheephorn woke up, and when they saw that they were going to escape, they shouted.

The shepherdess followed the young man quickly into the chimney. It was so dark that she couldn't see anything clearly. She took the young man's hand and her mind was pounding. Suddenly, she heard a "bang", as if something in the room had broken. Without looking at this, she followed the young man and slowly climbed to the top of the chimney.

Ah, it's so beautiful outside, the air is so fresh. The sky is full of stars, and there is a full moon! Under my feet are the roofs, one by one, a gust of cool, the wind blows, and it is next to the young people.

Standing on the roof, the world outside was too quiet. Suddenly, the shepherdess felt lonely. This was the first time she had left the room, and he missed grandpa. She must go back.

The young man was helpless and had no choice but to take her back to the room. When they opened the furnace door and looked into the room, they were petrified. It turned out that Grandpa fell while chasing them.

The shepherdess cried, "It's all for me, it's all for me, grandpa made it like this."

The young man found a bottle of glue and said to the shepherdess, "Don't worry, let's put him together and stick it together."

What about General Sheephorn? Stand aside and don't move, as if nothing has happened.

The young man picked up the pieces one by one, the shepherdess carefully glued them one by one, and slowly, the grandfather returned to his original state.

Regrettably, Grandpa's neck could not be turned, but standing there, he was still as majestic as before. He said to the shepherdess and the young man: "Thank you very much, you helped me to restore me to the way I was." At this point, Grandpa looked at General Sheephorn deliberately. The General Sheephorn lowered his head, unable to say a word. What about the shepherdess? She took the young man's hand and returned to her original position happily. However, he and the young man were very close, and the two stood side by side.

Seeing the shepherdess like this, General Sheephorn felt very uncomfortable, but he still had the cheek to say to his grandfather, "You originally agreed to my marriage with the shepherdess, and now that she is back, please agree to our marriage!

Grandpa ignored her, Grandpa couldn't move his head, but Grandpa held his head high and didn't answer him a word.
