And this time the pinafore went up in earnest, and Tiza began to cry piteously. Can't you make up anyway? I wish I had anything to give you to make up." Tiza suddenly dried her eyes and looked at Milly, with a bright expression which was very puzzling. "Come here by the hedge, don't let mother see us." So they ran along the far side of the hedge till they got into the farmyard, and then Tiza led Milly past the hen-house, up to the corner where the hayricks were. |
