141, a single seedling

Taking advantage of the fact that it was not yet time to go to school, Zhao Yu hurriedly caught a string of grasshoppers, and just stepped into the gate in a hurry, Shi Ke ran towards him with an anxious look holding the basket, "Big brother, take a look at what's wrong with the little red ball?" Why don't you move? ”

"Don't move? Let me see. Zhao Yu took the basket and looked inside, isn't it, the little red ball is not lying in the nest, but lying on the side of the basket, the calf of the thin rod is still straight, he pointed the little red ball with his fingers, the little red ball is still motionless, not even a little breath, the result is obvious, "It's over, the little red ball is dead." ”

Shi Ke's eyes quickly filled with tears, "Big brother, how could Little Red Ball die?" ”

Zhao Yu scratched his head, "How do I know, this thing is too difficult to raise, you see, the little yellow mouth is also wilting, I'll feed it a grasshopper to try." Zhao Yu said, pulled a grasshopper, pick it, pick it and put it on the side of Xiao Huangzui's mouth, Xiao Huangzui didn't open his mouth, Xiao Badao opened his mouth when he smelled the smell, Zhao Yu handed the grasshopper string to Zhao Yu who came over and said: "Erchen, give it to you, feed your bird yourself." After saying that, he broke open the little yellow beak and stuffed the grasshopper meat into the bird's beak.

The little yellow mouth didn't swallow the meat at all, and his breathing was faintly wheezing there, it seemed that this one would not live long.

When he opened his eyes, he knew that the player was a finch, Yan Siqin slandered, set up breakfast, and shouted at the three little heads gathered together: "Come over to eat quickly, Da Zhuang, don't you look at what time it is?" You can't go to school yet! ”

"It's coming, it's coming." Zhao Yu raised his head and agreed, and then said, "Let's go, let my father see if there is any salvation?" ”

"Daddy, my little red ball is dead." Shi Ke sniffed, and pointed to the little red ball with teary eyes to show Zhao Liangsheng.

Yan Siqin was slightly stunned when he heard this, he died so soon? Didn't you say you could live for two or three days? She put down the chopsticks in her hand, looked into the basket, the little house finch that was still begging for food with its big mouth open yesterday, and now it was lying there silently, she couldn't help but feel uncomfortable in her heart, "Make a sin, pity a little life, big strong, you are not allowed to dig out the nest of the house in the future, do you hear!" ”

"Dad, my little yellow mouth is also dying, can you see if there is any salvation?" Zhao Yu lifted the basket and leaned in front of Zhao Liangsheng's face.

"Dad, look at it." Zhao Liangsheng lowered his head and looked inside the basket, shook his head and sighed: "It's hopeless." ”

The little boy is not as sentimental as the little girl, Zhao Yu heard his father say that the little yellow mouth was not saved, he said "oh", saying that he knew, Shi Ke would not be able to do it, and saw the big tears falling down vigorously, "Dad, they are so pitiful, if the mother bird knows that its baby is dead, how sad should it be?" ”

The child cried, the first one who couldn't greet was the mother, Yan Siqin hurriedly encircled the girl in his arms and comforted: "Obedient, let's not cry, isn't there another one, let's take care of that one, my mother boiled eggs for you, and picked out the yellow for it to eat in a while, it will definitely not die." ”

"Yes, my sister doesn't cry." Zhao Chen was very generous as a little brother, and he followed his mother's example and hugged Shi Ke's shoulder, "Sister, I'll give you the little domineering." ”

Although she knew that Xiao Huangzui would not live long, Shi Ke still did some remedies, she crushed the egg yolk into puree, smeared a few mouthfuls on Xiao Huangzui's mouth, and found a few rags to cover it to warm Xiao Huangzui.

Although Dad said that Xiao Huangzui was not saved, Zhao Yu still didn't want Xiao Huangzui to die, and the first thing he did when he got home from school was to ask Shi Ke, "Sister, is Xiao Huangzui still alive?" ”

Shi Ke shook his head gloomily, "Big brother, the little yellow mouth is also dead." ”

"It's dead." Zhao Yu was a little regretful, "What Dad said is true." ”

The three birds in the nest, only the little domineering is still vibrant, Zhao Yu grabbed the dead birds from the nest one by one and was about to throw them out, Shi Ke hurriedly stopped him, "Big brother, don't throw it." ”

"If you don't throw it away, it will stink after a long time." Zhao Yu was a little puzzled and looked at his sister.

Shi Ke also knew that the dead birds would stink after a long time, but she also took care of the two birds, and she was a little reluctant to throw them away like this, so she also waited for the eldest brother to come back, and discussed giving the little house finches a funeral, "Big brother, let's find a place to bury them." ”

The girl is a lot of things, and the house finch is dead when it dies, if you like it, I'll go and dig out a nest again, oh, my mother said that I am not allowed to dig it again, Zhao Yu looked at the dead house finch in her hand and said: "Okay, sister, you said we buried it like this?" ”

Since you want to hold a funeral for the little red ball and the little yellow mouth, you have to prepare a coffin for them first, Zhao Yu found the used homework book, folded a boxy cardboard box, put the two finches in it, and led the younger brothers and sisters to the back hill to find a piece of feng shui treasure full of wild flowers, and buried the two little house sparrows in it.

The deceased is gone, the living have to continue to take care of it, the little overlord has become the only seedling, the small life is called a comfortable, the three little brothers and sisters poured all their love into the little overlord, the cold is afraid that it will freeze, the hot day is afraid that it will cover, nothing to think about making it delicious, the little overlord is now fragrant every day, oh, the drink is also fragrant, within a few days, the eyes of the little bully opened, a layer of fine fluff grew all over the body, and gradually the little head became fluffy, and a few hard hairs with white spots began to grow on the wings, After a few more days, the beak became longer and sharper, and the yellow edge of the beak became thinner and thinner, gradually fading the tender yellow, and occasionally it could stand up and jump a few times.

The most pleasing thing for the little brother and sister is that the little bully has signs of human nature, at the beginning, no matter who stood by the nest, and then slurped, the little bully immediately straightened its little thin legs, erected its little body and opened its mouth wide to chirp in agreement, oh, this may also be its instinct, thinking that it was going to eat.

Ten days later, the feathers on the little overlord will grow all, if it weren't for the fact that there is still a little yellow left at the corner of its mouth, just like a ** finch, look carefully, the little overlord is still very beautiful, because of sufficient nutrition, the little domineering black pearl-like small eyes, round and clever, a body of feathers slippery and slippery, the brown feathers on the head are short and dense, fluffy, like a small pom-pom, a conical mouth, a large black spot on the left and right of the cheeks, the head and neck are darker maroon, the back is lighter maroon, decorated with black stripes, The shoulder feathers have two white bands, although other sparrows look like this, but in the eyes of the little brothers and sisters, their little domineering is very different.

Now the little bully is smarter and can run around, and the little brothers and sisters know the temper of the house finch, not free, and would rather die, so they never thought of enclosing the little bully in the cage, but directly put its nest on the table and let it bounce near the nest.

Little Badao is like a spoiled child, it just eats and sleeps, wakes up to play, it stands to reason that a house finch as big as it should be able to flapping its wings and fly on a section, see Xiao Badao now the only skill is to jump, happy jumping.

In order to create a spacious and comfortable entertainment place for the little overlord, the three brothers and sisters cleaned up the things on the table that got in the way to other places, and also set up a few small tables on the table, which is convenient for the little overbearing, its daily task is to jump from the nest to the platform, back and forth a few laps, the farthest jump to the table, stretch out the little head, stare at its round little eyes to look down, more than a meter high for the young little bully is a cliff, it is to see, but dare not jump down directly.

How can you be a bird if you can't fly? The three little brothers and sisters plan to teach Xiao Badao to learn to fly.

They brought Xiao Badao to the stone platform in the courtyard, and Shi Ke stood in front of the platform and shouted, "Xiao Badao." ”

Little Domineering is really a bit human, it knows that this is its name, and it also knows that when the little master stretches out his little hand and shouts its name, he wants to play with it.

Xiao Badao blinked his pearl eyes and tilted his head to look at Shi Ke.

Shi Ke nodded his little domineering furry little head and said, "You are a bird, you have to be able to fly, you know?" ”

What is flying? Xiao Badao didn't understand, it pecked the feathers on its belly a few times with its small mouth, and chirped a few times.

"Little overbearing." Zhao Chen shouted.

Xiao Badao looked over, and jumped a few steps in the direction of Zhao Chen.

"Won't you fly? That's it. Zhao Chen stretched out his two arms, learned to spread the wings of the bird, and flapped it several times.

The clever little bully understood, the little master was playing with it and stretching his arms, and it spread its two wings and flapped a few times.

Zhao Yu hated that iron could not become steel, and pointed at the tip of the little domineering nose and said: "You said that you can't fly as a bird, are you worthy of your two wings?"

The little bully blinked, turned his little head smartly, looked over on the platform, and stood on the side of the platform with two little paws, and had the intention to jump down to explore the unknown world, but he was afraid of hurting himself, so he retracted his little head again, and was far away from the edge of the platform, only playing in a safe range.

Zhao Yu was very disdainful of the little domineering cowardice, he heard that when the old bird taught the little bird to fly, he forced the little bird to squeeze the little bird out of the nest, forcing the little bird to learn to fly, he put his hand on the little overbearing side and said, "Come up." ”

Xiao Badao comprehended, jumped into Zhao Yu's hand, Zhao Yu put his hands together, directly covered Xiao Badao into his palm, and then threw it into the sky.

Xiao Badao was stunned, it didn't know what was going on, the bird was already in mid-air, and then the bird's body fell freely, like a small cannonball, smashed directly to the ground, seeing the ground getting closer and closer, Xiao Badao's heart was so frightened that his heart thumped, but he didn't know how to flap his wings.

Zhao Yu was also stunned, you melon baby, but flying! Seeing that Xiao Badao was about to fall to death, in the midst of Zhao Chen and Shi Ke's exclamations, he hurriedly stretched out his arm and narrowly caught Xiao Badao.

"Big brother!"

"Big brother!"

"Chirp!"

Six pairs of eyes looked at Zhao Yu condemningly, especially Xiao Badao, and there was grievance in the pearl's small eyes, "Chirp, twitter!" Translated, it means, "Why did you fall to my death!" ”

"You fool, you won't flap your wings!" Zhao Yu was really anxious, and he scared you to death by calling you a bear child.
