"Qingzhi, this bird seems to be able to understand human speech. It's not happy that you talk about it." Xu Fuqiang liked it even more, whistling to amuse the bird.
The crow felt that the whistle was too unpleasant, so he covered his ears with his wings in frustration.
Xu Qingzhi smiled and said: "Dad, stop teasing the birds, I'm almost hungry."
"Okay." Xu Fuqiang stopped teasing and walked to the kitchen with the chicken in hand, "Your mother and I will cook together, and I will ensure that you and your brother and sister can eat in an hour."
An hour later.
A bowl of scallion chicken, a plate of cucumber and egg rolls, a bowl of tender tofu in tomato sauce, and a plate of stir-fried cabbage were served.
"The green onions at the back looked really nice, so I picked some and made this scallion oil chicken. These are the only vegetables at home. When I go to the market tomorrow, I'll buy a few more kilograms of ribs for you two siblings to make corn rib soup.
Wang Yanmei wiped her hands and said, "Eat quickly."
Xu Zijun couldn't wait to pick up a piece of chicken with his chopsticks, spit out the bones, and ate the meat.
"Mom, this chicken is so delicious."
Xu Zijun said, taking a big mouthful of rice and picking up another chopstick.
Wang Yanmei smiled, and calmly picked up the delicious-looking and tender chicken pieces and placed them next to Xu Zijun, "If it's delicious, eat more of it."
The food in the high school cafeteria is to eat whatever is available, and you can choose three dishes out of ten. However, the chef in this cafeteria is really not good at cooking, and none of the ten dishes are delicious.
The taste of the food can only be said to make you feel full and not starve to death.
Every time Xu Zijun comes back from monthly vacation, Wang Yanmei will try her best to prepare some good dishes, especially stew a good soup, to replenish Xu Zijun's body.
"Tomorrow I will go to your second uncle's house to buy some Chinese medicine and come back. I will make chicken soup for you the day after tomorrow. You are wasting your brains studying in school, so you can eat more when you get back."
"Thank you, Mom."
Xu Fuqiang also wanted to care about Xu Zijun, but it was inappropriate for the elders to say anything to each other. He pondered for a few words while holding the wine glass, then looked at the chicken legs in the basin and said: "There are two big chicken legs in there. I asked your mother not to chop them.
It’s reserved for you two siblings.”
In my hometown, adults regard chicken legs as very precious things and give them to children.
Xu Qingzhi pinched one, and Xu Zijun pinched another.
As soon as they heard the word chicken legs, the white cat and the crow immediately became restless and gathered around.
The white cat rushed over and pulled Xu Qingzhi's legs, and the crow habitually landed on her shoulders.
Xu Qingzhi was not frightened and startled Wang Yanmei on the left.
"Oh my god, what are these two little guys doing? Why did they suddenly come over?"
"Gaga~"
Master, chicken drumsticks~
"Meow~"
Master, I also want to eat big chicken drumsticks~
Xu Qingzhi reached out to touch the white cat that kept scratching her trouser legs, comforted her, and said to her mother: "They wanted to eat chicken legs. When dad said chicken legs, they ran over. The two little guys, these days
I’m probably starving out there.”
Xu Fuqiang saw that he liked the crow more and more and could still stand on people's shoulders obediently. He said with a smile: "Qingzhi, have you trained this bird? Can you stand on my shoulder? I will take it out for a walk."
Can you run?"
"It can't run away. This bird has a very high IQ, about the same as a three-year-old child. It just recognizes people and needs to be familiar with it."
The crow was not happy, "Gah~" You only have the IQ of a three-year-old child, and I am the smartest bird in the Bosai Forest.
"They haven't been fed yet when they come back. Qingzhi, have you bought the cat food and bird food?"
Only then did Xu Qingzhi realize that he had made a mistake, but considering that the two little ones couldn't eat those things, and it would be a waste to buy them, he simply said: "They don't eat those, just normal meals. Their favorite food is
Chicken legs."
Wang Yanmei couldn't bear to give the big chicken legs to her pets. "You can eat it yourself. How can you give the chicken legs to kittens and birds? Just make some leftovers later."
The white cat immediately lay down on Wang Yanmei's feet. Wang Yanmei was prepared now and was not frightened. Then, the white cat's little head rubbed against her legs again and again.
Wang Yanmei had a cat when she was a child, and it liked to rub against her legs. Later, the child next door threw her to death. She cried very sadly, and she stopped raising any animals from then on.
This time, it touched the chord in her heart.
She subconsciously reached out and touched the white cat's head. The plush feeling was extremely soft to the touch. It's hard to describe how to describe it. It just felt very soft and comfortable.
The white cat plucked her trouser legs and gave her a "meow~" sound.
Wang Yanmei looked at the watery, round black eyes, and immediately looked at the chicken legs in Xu Qingzhi's bowl, "Qingzhi, you don't usually like to eat chicken legs, so just give them to this cat. I heard that pet cats
You can’t catch mice. It’ll be pitiful to leave it outside for days.”
Xu Qingzhi:......
Mom, do you want to change so quickly?
"Okay, Mom." Xu Qingzhi nodded.
Wang Yanmei took the chicken legs away, then took the cat to the food bowl against the wall, and put the chicken legs in the food bowl. The white cat got the chicken legs and ate them especially deliciously.
Wang Yanmei also watched it eat, and the more she watched, the more she liked it. She coaxed it like a child: "Eat slowly, don't choke."
The crow immediately acted like an unloved child, and let out an aggrieved "ga~" sound, making a purring sound in its throat.
"What's wrong with this bird? Why is it snoring?" Xu Fuqiang asked with a look of curiosity and worry.
Xu Qingzhi glanced at Xu Zijun. He was completely undisturbed and was eating deliciously.
There was not much left of the chicken legs.
"It's nothing. It just didn't eat the chicken legs and is in a mood." Xu Qingzhi stretched out her index finger, and the crow's little head rubbed between her index fingers.
Xu Fuqiang thought the little bird was very interesting, as if teasing a child, "leave a chicken leg for it next time."
The crow got the words and flew to another place to stand.
Xu Zijun doesn't listen to what's going on outside the window and only wants to be a cook.
After he was half full, he went to get another bowl of rice. When he came back, he said, "Mom, these dishes are so delicious. The cabbage is so tender, and the cucumber egg rolls are also delicious. They are also fragrant."
Crisp."
"This is the vegetable grown by your sister, isn't it delicious?" Xu Fuqiang boasted a little proudly in his heart: "Even though your sister is skinny, she is a better farmer than me, and she has skill in wielding a hoe." p>
"Sister, do you farm?" Xu Zijun opened his mouth in surprise, and suddenly he was full of questions.
Xu Qingzhi saw it through at a glance and said calmly: "Well, if you don't accept it, just hold it in."
Xu Zijun immediately suppressed all his words, okay, he should stop asking about his sister's affairs, otherwise he would only end up being scolded by his sister, or scolded by his parents.
He can just eat honestly. Well, this food is so delicious.
After eating, Xu Zijun’s stomach was full.
The sky outside is in the evening when white and black alternate.
After Xu Qingzhi came back, she hadn't taken a walk around the village yet and was about to go out for a walk. Xu Fuqiang was worried that she was a girl, so he asked Xu Zijun to follow her.
The two of them walked up the mountain road at the back, which was a winding mountain road. They could also see the chicken coop at home and the bayberry forest in the back mountain.
Xu Qingzhi went straight in and picked two, gave one to her brother, and tasted one herself, "These bayberries taste pretty good."
