Chapter 8: When the Swallow Comes (II)

"You're the thief who comes to my house every day to steal gems?"

Shen Yu was struggling to clasp the gem set in the birdcage, when he suddenly heard someone talking, and he was so frightened that he immediately flew out. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Wen Chengxing always thought that it was the servants of the family who came here to steal things every night, so he called a few trustworthy servants to catch the thief together, who knew that it was a bird that stole things, and when a group of people were caught off guard, Shen Yu fled from the Wen family.

Everyone in the world loves gemstones, so they all protect it, and some people can't wait to sleep with it every day, Shen Yu's luck is not very good, since she left the Wen family, she has never found one.

Looking at the more than a dozen gems in the nest, Shen Yu sighed, the end of autumn is coming, she is about to fly to the south of the Southern Jin Dynasty, and she doesn't know if it is enough for this year, then Shen Da tailor is really getting more and more picky, a centimeter of clear silk has to be counted clearly, and I heard that the price has risen a little bit this year, when will this hateful vampire be better to her, she really loves money.

Straightened the feather coat on his body with his beak, and found that a few feathers had fallen off, Shen Yu wanted to cry without tears, if there were not enough gems to change into a new feather coat this year, I was afraid that he would freeze to death on the way to migrate.

It has been half a month since the last time she escaped from the Wen family, and Shen Yu secretly came to the Wen family again, so much time has passed, and the son of the Wen family will definitely not stay in the house and wait for her anymore.

Looking at the birdcage that was re-inlaid with gems, Shen Yu swallowed the foam in her beak, if she hadn't cultivated enough, where would she have spent so much effort to deduct one every day, deduct one, and her beak would hurt to death.

Flying to the birdcage, Shen Yu's body was very light, and when he landed on the cage, the cage only shook slightly, but who knew that something would happen this time.

Wen Chengxing looked at the swallow who was trapped in the net and kept struggling, stood aside and praised him, "I think your swallow is really smart, and you know to stop for two days and come again, but it's a pity, I'm not stupid, I've already laid a net and waited for you to cast it." ”

Grabbing the swallow that was still fluttering, the visibility at night was already low, but the moonlight that could shine in from the window still exposed a small patch of bald skin on the swallow's back.

"Yo, it's still a sick bird that only loves gems, what? Knowing that his life is short, he wants to get more money for himself to hold a prosperous 'funeral'? ”

Seeing that Wen Chengxing was speechless, Shen Yu angrily pecked the back of his hand with his beak, Shen Yu's beak was very powerful, you know, she could even buckle the gems set in the cage, this strength is naturally not something that Wen Chengxing, a mortal in the flesh, can bear.

"Hey, you're a sick bird, you're really powerful, ordinary birds aren't as fierce as you're sick, go, find a cage again, I want to see what else this bird is capable of."

Wen Chengxing handed Shen Yu over the net to his subordinates, walked out of the house by himself, and walked to his room, just halfway through, he suddenly turned his head to the family who was secretly yawning behind him and said, "By the way, tell them to make a stronger cage again, it's better to beat one with gold, don't wait for her to bite those ordinary cages with that sharp mouth when the time comes." ”

After speaking, he turned around and went back to the room, in the middle of the night, in order to catch this bird can waste a lot of his thoughts, but this bird is really much smarter than the parrot starling he raised, it actually knows how to speculate on people's hearts, knowing that he will relax his vigilance after a long time, so he waited for half a month before shooting again, and tomorrow, he will take it out, and give those birds who always show off to him how smart their birds are, what is really smart.

Thinking like this, Wen Chengxing fell asleep with a smile, but he didn't know that Shen Yu over there was already worried.

It's all bad to blame, if you pick a few ordinary feather coats like other swallows, but you have a good face, you have to wear Qingjiao silk weaving, now it's good, the family is about to migrate to the south, but he is locked in this small cage.

Shen Yu lay in the birdcage and pretended to be dead for a long time, only to realize that it was still the middle of the night, where would anyone notice that she was 'dead', turned over and stood up again, recalling the past, in fact, in the family and even outside the clan to pursue her like a carp across the river, but every time they heard that she would change a piece of Qingjiao silk every year, they would give up, Qingjiao silk was too expensive, they were usually busy singing and catching insects, where was there so much time to find gems with her, and in the end, even when they saw her, those swallows would fly far away.

Otherwise, you will wear an ordinary feather coat in the future? Shen Yu hit the railing on the birdcage with her little head, no, I don't know what material Qingping silk is woven from, she also tried to wear Qingping silk many times because Qingjiao silk is too expensive, but every time she wears it, she will get a serious illness, and she almost took her bird life every time.

Shen Yu's actions are like a human being, thanks to Wen Chengxing not seeing it, if he sees it, he may become a madman, and anyone who exchanges a few beautiful stones for a sky-high treasure will be happy.

……

"Hey, do you think this bird is scared stupid, why hasn't it eaten or drunk for a few days and is it still motionless, is it dead?" Wen Chengxing poked Shen Yu's body with chopsticks and found that she was still lying there with her eyes closed and not moving.

"Young master, she is still alive, you see her chest is still rising and falling."

Shen Yu has been lying in the birdcage, although she also has a bit of cultivation, but a few days of not eating or drinking makes her a little dizzy, not to mention that it will be early winter in two days, the weather is cold to death, plus the feathers on the feather coat have fallen even more, she can only keep jumping every night, at least to keep herself warm.

Finally couldn't stand Wen Chengxing, who was always 'moving his hands and feet' to her, Shen Yu turned over and stood up stumblingly.

Just when Wen Chengxing was excited, Shen Yu scowled away all the family members in the room.

"Fool." This is the first sentence Shen Yu said, which he learned from Wen Chengxing, and in the two days when she pretended to be dead, Wen Chengxing always knocked on the head of the family in front of her, and kept calling them fools.

Wen Chengxing's eyes widened, and he was so frightened that he fell directly from the stool to the ground, he knew it, but the swallow could also speak, and he couldn't accept it for the time being.

"Fool."

“……”

"Fool."

"You call me a fool again?"

Wen Chengxing opened the birdcage and grabbed Shen Yu's body, but found that he had just grabbed her, and before she could start to exert herself, she lost a lot of hair.

"Yo, all the scared hairs have fallen out? It just so happened that it saved me time for plucking, and the taste of roasted pigeon is not bad, I don't know how it tastes like roasted swallows? ”

Shen Yu was so frightened that he wanted to break free from Wen Chengxing's clutches, but Wen Chengxing's strength was too great, and watching him carry himself out of the house, Shen Yu closed his eyes in despair.

"Hey, I said you're a really funny bird, okay, I'm not going to tease you, just stay in this house.

Hey, you can still grow this hair back, right? I didn't seem to be using any strength just now, why did I lose so much? ”

Shen Yu didn't want to open his eyes, the family must have gone to the south, and he didn't know if they had noticed that they had lost it, let alone if they could survive it this winter.

Seeing that the bird in the cage didn't open its eyes, Wen Chengxing thought she was unhappy, so he went back to the room and took a box of gems, stuffed them into the cage one by one, and said while stuffing them, "Oh, don't you like gems?" It's all for you to play with, can you open your eyes and say a few words to me? ”

"What's the use of giving me gems now, bastard," Shen Yu picked up the smallest and worst-looking gem and threw it at Wen Chengxing, which provoked Wen Chengxing to be even more curious about her, could it be that this swallow is really spiritual and can understand him?

……

Shen Yu spent her first winter in the north at the Wen family, and Wen Chengxing put many braziers in her room so that she didn't freeze to death.

That winter, Wen Chengxing no longer went out to play with the group of fox friends, but picked up the books and stayed in the room all day, at first Wen's father thought that his son was just making a show for him and his wife, and then wanted them to take money to gamble, but I didn't expect that a winter passed, and the sound of reading could be heard from her son's room every day, and Wen's mother even began to recite Buddhist scriptures, often saying that this is the blessing of the ancestors of the Wen family, and the blessing of the Buddha.

God knows that Wen Chengxing actually studied in front of her every day in order to let Shen Yu speak here.

"Will your family fly back today?"

"No, no, no, how many times have you said no, don't you understand the bird's language?"

"But if your family doesn't come back for a day, you won't have any clothes to wear, and you're a girl anyway, so you're not ashamed at all."

Wen Chengxing looked at Shen Yu, who was hairless, and his tone was a little disgusted.

"Aren't you the fault of my hairlessness? If you hadn't caught me every day, wouldn't my hair have fallen so fast? ”

Shen Yu looked angry, although Wen Chengxing couldn't see it, but her tone couldn't deceive people.

"I said I'll make it up to you, well, the box of gems is yours."

Wen Chengxing pointed to a small wooden box on the cabinet, don't look at it, it is small, it contains I don't know how many priceless gems in it.

Shen Yu's heart turned from cloudy to sunny, although she spent the winter in the north this time, not only did she not freeze to death, but she also got so many gems, and she didn't know how much Qingjiao silk she could buy.

……

"The rich kid has become a black shop shopkeeper who kills people and robs money?"

The corners of Guan Yiyi's mouth twitched, he really couldn't believe this fact, "The Wen family is also bankrupt"?

"No, it's just ......"

"Chengxing is too willful, he broke off relations with his parents for me a few years ago, and then took me to this border town, but what can he do as a rich child? I can't lift my hands and shoulders, and I am a burden, so he has to make such a living. ”

Shen Yu flew to Wen Chengxing's shoulder and pecked his hair, very distressed, and then got a gentle caress from Wen Chengxing.

"Why don't you bow down to your parents and admit your mistakes? They are your parents after all, and as long as you apologize to them, they will definitely forgive you. ”

Zong Jiming opened his mouth and said, he was like this before, as long as he confessed his mistake to his mother when he did something wrong, his mother would forgive him immediately.

"It would be nice if it could really be like this, but it's a pity that they always have only the eldest brother in their eyes."

Wen Chengxing caressed Shen Yu, his tone was full of unwillingness.

"But no matter how good your eldest brother is, no matter how much your father likes him, you are also a descendant of the Wen family."

"My eldest brother is Wen Yan."

“……”

“???”

"The ...... of the Northern Jin Dynasty King Personal eunuch? ”

“???”

Wen Yan, the personal eunuch of Qi Jun, the king of the Northern Jin Dynasty, is scheming, but he is deeply loved by Qi Jun, except for sleeping, the two are almost inseparable.

"Ahem, in short, you are a descendant of the Wen family after all, but whether you want to go back is your own business, our words have come to this point, so I will not persuade much, as for the silver, I will send someone to send it in two days, compared to the gems you used in the past, I hope you are not too little."

If this 10,000 taels is placed in normal times, Guan Yi must be heartbroken, but looking at Shen Yu who has been shedding feathers, she can't bear it, just be a good person.

Wen Chengxing and Shen Yu thanked the two, prepared the things they needed all the way for them, and sent them away, as for whether to return to the Wen family or not, let's talk about it when he figured it out, the top priority is to find the feather yarn for Shen Yu.
