1 Yueyin

In an old tree by the lake, there is a very beautiful phoenix with golden-red feathers cultivating. That phoenix had already been cultivated for a thousand years. Today was the Phoenix's thousandth day of cultivation. Now her body is emitting a golden-red glow, and the light that comes out of her body is getting clearer and more dazzling. Moments later, the light faded, and the phoenix disappeared but turned into a very beautiful girl. Her face glows and makes anyone who sees it will immediately fall in love.

"Hoaahhmmm..." the girl's voice when she woke up from her long meditation. She was currently feeling confused because she couldn't remember who she was and where she came from. All she knew was that she had now become a very beautiful girl. She then stretched her muscles started to get up from her current place and looked out from inside the belly of the old tree. She looked around her. There was no one. She only saw a very calm and quiet lake. She then immediately left the place to look for something she could eat.

After walking for a long time, finally, Phoenix, who has now become a beautiful girl, found a village that was quite densely populated. She also saw a lot of food that seemed to be very delicious. She then smiled and immediately went to an osmanthus cake seller, because she didn't know anything about how to live and interact with the beautiful human girl and then just took the cake in front of her and ate it. Of course, the owner cursed and scolded her, then asked him to pay for the cake she had eaten.

"Miss, you have eaten my cake now you will just leave. You have to pay first before you can go." said the baker who scolded the beautiful girl harshly. At the same time, the girl, of course, did not know anything about what the cake seller meant. The girl then immediately left the cake seller who was currently chasing her.

"Miss, wait! Are you deaf? I asked for money for the cake you ate!" said the cake seller again, but the beautiful girl still didn't understand what he was saying. "Uncle, what is money? What is pay?" asked the beautiful girl because she really didn't know anything. Because the cake seller was so noisy, many people gathered to see what was really going on. Among them was a middle-aged woman who felt sorry for the beautiful girl and then paid the cake seller as much as the cake the girl had eaten. The middle-aged woman immediately took the beautiful girl to her house, which was on the village border.

"Son, what's your name? why have you just seen me in this village? are you new?" asked the middle-aged woman to the beautiful girl she met earlier, but the beautiful girl just shook her head because she didn't know anything. "Who are you? I don't know who I am. I just found myself alone, then I felt hungry and I came to this place. I saw a very delicious cake and ate it but the cake man scolded me and asked for money." said the beautiful girl while looking around in confusion.

"Son, because you have eaten the cake seller's cake of course you have to pay for it. If you don't pay it's called stealing." said the middle-aged woman explaining to the beautiful girl she met with great patience. "Introduce my name is Shuwan, what's your name?" asked the middle-aged woman who claimed to be called Shuwan to the beautiful girl in front of her who at this time could only shake her head. Shuwan thought that the girl must have had a memory loss, so she took the initiative to give her a name.

"Miss, since you don't know what your name is, how about I give you a name as long as you don't remember who you really are?" asked Shuwan, which was immediately answered with a nod of her head, she, of course, agreed with what Shuwan said. "I'll do what you say auntie..." said the beautiful girl looking happy. At the same time, Shuwan currently thinks what name to name the girl in front of her.

"Well, since you are very beautiful, your face is rosy and bright like moonlight then I will call you by the name Yueyin which means bright moonlight, how about it? Do you like it?" Shuwan asked Yueyin, who immediately nodded her head.

"Okay, since you agree from now on, your name is Yueyin. Do you understand? Shuwan asked Yueyin, who again nodded her head. "Okay, Shuwan aunty, from now on, my name is Yueyin, right?" Yueyin asked happily. It was Shuwan who then decided to give Yueyin a place to stay. Shuwan decided that from today on, they would live together as a family.

"Alright Yueyin, I'll show you where your room is." Shuwan said as she grabbed Yueyin's hand and led her into a room inside her house. The room was not big but decent enough to live in. Yueyin was feeling very happy. Shuwan also gave some new clothes that she had bought for her sick daughter and then died. Her daughter's age at that time was the same as Yueyin's current age. Yueyin and Shuwan then talked a lot. She taught Yueyin how life is where they are now.

Yueyin was very clever. In an instant, she learned how to survive and socialize with the people she would meet. Yueyin had also started to think about how they would survive. The two are now truly a family. They love and care for each other like a mother and child. Yueyin also often helps Shuwan look for firewood in the forest to cook their food, while for their daily life, Shuwan makes jewelry from seashells and the seeds of the cypress trees that grow around her house. Yueyin turned out to be also good at making jewelry, which made Shuwan earn a lot of money right now.
