Mara: In ancient times, when children grew up, parents would buy clay toys. Clay toys were also known as "clay goods", while humanoid toys were called "soil dolls", also known as "soil suitable". The most popular clay figurine toy in the Song Dynasty was "Mo He Le"(Sanskrit transliteration). It came from the Western Regions and was originally a Buddhist item.
Mara was very similar to the modern Barbie doll. Children could wear different clothes on the doll, and children liked to imitate Mara's movements. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there were more clay sculptures and toys, which were still popular today.

Mara was like a modern Barbie doll.
Daiyu was still young and had a delicate body since she was young. She fell sick twice every three days. Jia Min and Lin Ruhai never dared to buy her anything from outside, afraid that she would catch a disease.
Now that Daiyu's body was great and she rarely coughed in winter, she was naturally not afraid of anything. However, this was the first time he had seen these gadgets on the street. Therefore, when he saw these colorful dolls, he naturally liked them very much.
Lin Mo laughed at her for being like a child.
Daiyu pouted." I'm just a child. What's wrong with being a child? I'm willing to be a child! Humph!"
Lin Mo laughed loudly. This was how a child should look like.
Daiyu picked up the handkerchief with two fingers again." Don't buy me this kind of thing in the future. I don't want to spend the whole day on embroidery. I don't like embroidery!”
Lin Mo continued to laugh out loud. He really liked the way Daiyu was now. This was the true appearance of a child. To hell with the lady of a noble family!
"I really like this doll. It's so cute!”Daiyu hugged Mo Luo tightly.
Lin Mo thought to himself, Isn't this a low-end version of a modern Barbie doll? I'll get you a few high-end ones someday.
"Don't laugh!" Daiyu pointed at Lin Mo.
"Okay, okay, okay, I won't laugh anymore. You like this Mara. How about I make you a few soft dolls to play with another day?”
"What is a soft doll?" Daiyu was very curious.
"You'll know when you make it."
The siblings played around. Daiyu remembered the soft doll Lin Mo had mentioned and urged Lin Mo to go back and get it for her.
Lin Mo returned to his room with a smile. After returning, he carefully recalled the various images of Barbie dolls in his mind and drew a rough picture of them. She then drew Barbie's boyfriend Ken's face. In the end, she even thoughtfully drew a few pets for Barbie. There was a small polar bear, a charmingly naive giant panda, a gibbon, and a zebra.
"Qing Ping, come in!" Lin Mo called Qing Ping in.
As soon as Qing Ping entered, she was attracted by Lin Mo's drawings.
"Young Master, what are you drawing?”Qing Ping was extremely curious.
" These are all dolls designed for Daiyu. This is the doll's boyfriend. These…" Before Lin Mo could finish, Qing Ping interrupted him." What is a boyfriend?" Why is this lady's hair blonde? Why was her hair curly? Why didn't you comb your hair into different hairstyles like us? Why…"
"Stop, stop, stop!" Lin Mo quickly stopped Qing Ping. If she continued asking, when would she finish?
"Take it back and make it according to my request. After you're done, I'll draw a few for you and one with a boyfriend.”
" But…" Qing Ping pouted and looked at Lin Mo with her big eyes. Lin Mo's heart skipped a beat.
Although Qing Ping was not as beautiful as Dai Yu, sixteen or seventeen was the most beautiful age for a girl. Her skin was smooth and tight, her body was slim and fit, and her breasts were as beautiful as flower buds. Lin Mo's heart couldn't help but slow down.
"No buts. Hurry up and do it!”Lin Mo felt a little awkward and deliberately put on a stern face.
"Let's do it. Why are you so fierce?”Qing Ping mumbled to herself as she took the Barbie doll drawn by Lin Mo and turned around to leave. As she left, she rolled her eyes.
Lin Mo smiled bitterly. He was actually a single man in his thirties. Why was he suddenly attracted to a little loli?
He shook his head violently, trying to drive the thought out of his mind.
Qing Ping went down and called Qing Ju, Qing Mei, and a few other little girls. Everyone worked together, cutting and sewing. It didn't take long for them to make the rough appearance of Barbie.
Qing Ping came back with the Barbie model." Young Master, draw the eyebrows on this doll so we can embroider it."”
Lin Mo looked at Qing Ping's beautiful face and blushed.
Qing Ping felt strange. What was wrong with Young Master today? She always blushed.
"Also, how do I get this doll's yellow hair?”
Lin Mo composed himself and thought for a moment." Go find a few pieces of golden cloth and cut them into thin strips. Then, braid them into braids and put them in boiling water to be scalded. Then, unwrap them and they will become a beautiful woman's curly hair.”
"Beauty?" Green Apple was about to start the 'why' mode again.
"Stay!" Lin Mo quickly stopped Qing Ping from asking.
Qing Ping glanced at Lin Mo unhappily and said nothing.
Lin Mo took the doll that Qing Ping had made and carefully drew the eyes, eyebrows, and mouth of the doll.
Qing Ping didn't say anything this time and turned to leave.
Lin Mo did not have the mood to do anything else. He lay on the bed, feeling a little depressed. No one knew what he was thinking.
Actually, in ancient times, it was normal for a rich young master to have a few maids before he married. As he thought about it, a certain part of Lin Mo's body involuntarily hardened.
"No, no, no!" Lin Mo was still a modern man deep down, but he immediately rejected himself.
When Qing Ping came in again, Lin Mo was too embarrassed to look at her.
"That's strange. What's wrong with Young Master? Her face was red. Did she have a fever?”Qing Ping muttered to herself and naturally touched Lin Mo's forehead.
Lin Mo was shocked and did not dare to move. His face turned even redder.
"It's not burning! What exactly happened?" Qing Ping found it strange.
"Is the doll ready?" Lin Mo asked, pretending to be calm.
"No, they're doing their hair. I came to see if Young Master wanted some water.”
"Oh, then go and pour me a cup of tea!”Lin Mo felt dizzy. He had never had a girlfriend before. Female colleagues in the modern world were all tough women. This was the first time he had such a feeling, and Lin Mo was a little at a loss.
Qing Ping quickly brought the tea over." Young Master, drink it slowly. It's a little hot."”She kindly reminded Lin Mo.
"Oh, you can go back to work." Lin Mo didn't know how to face Qing Ping.
Qing Ping nodded and turned to look at Lin Mo as she left. Her young master was acting too strange today.
