Whether the second sister gave a gift or not, Zhang Qiuchi didn't care about it, he just felt that since the family banquet at noon, he hadn't seen Zhang Meishou's figure, a little strange, and ordered someone to inquire, only to learn that the second girl was not in the house, so he was a little bottomless.

After all, the second sister is a little girl who can dig up more than 20 female corpses by casually dreaming about it and walking outside the city.

The second sister didn't have any strange dreams when she was napping, right?

Zhang Qiuchi sat in the study, looking at the rain dripping under the eaves outside, and the gradually darkening sky, and couldn't help but feel worried.

When I was thinking about going out to find someone in person, I suddenly heard the voice of the little guy in my ears.

"The second girl is here!"

"Where's the eldest prince?" Ah Li asked the little girl.

"Childe is in the study." When the little girl was about to go to the communication, he turned his head and saw Zhang Qiuchi striding out of the study.

Zhang Meishou took Ah Li into the porch, and Ah Li took the umbrella.

"Second sister, where have you been?" During Zhang Qiuchi's questioning, he looked people up and down, but he didn't see anything unusual, so he was a little relieved.

Zhang Meishou didn't have time to reply to him, so he dragged him into the hall.

"It's windy outside, but don't get caught in the cold, see your hair is wet."

Fu ordered the servant to fetch hot tea.

Zhang Meishou smiled and said, "Don't worry, I don't feel cold." ”

As he spoke, he looked at Ah Li, who was following in: "Quickly give the things to the eldest prince." ”

Zhang Qiuchi listened and subconsciously looked over.

Only then did I see Ah Li holding a cage-sized thing in her hand, covered with a black cloth, and she couldn't see what was inside for the time being.

"Second sister, what is this?"

"Big brother will know just by looking at it."

Zhang Qiuchi took the thing from Ah Li's hand, and took off the black cloth suspiciously, only to see that it was really a delicate birdcage-

And in the cage there was a bird with black feathers, shiny and orange beak.

"It's ...... Wren? Zhang Qiuchi's eyes lit up slightly, suppressing the surprise in his tone.

Ah Li said: "The eldest prince is really a person who understands birds, and the slaves and maids can't see any difference between those birds except for their color." ”

Zhang Qiuchi smiled embarrassedly, looked at Zhang Meishou and asked, "This is what the second sister bought?" ”

"It's for the eldest brother." Zhang Meishou said with a smile: "The eldest brother was admitted to the Songfeng Academy, and I couldn't think of anything to give the eldest brother as a congratulatory gift, so I bought it back." ”

It's hard to find the ones in better condition, and it took her a whole day of hard work to come back late.

Zhang Qiuchi looked extremely surprised.

What the?

He was admitted to the academy, and the second sister actually bought a bird for him as a gift?!

After coming back to his senses, Zhang Qiuchi couldn't cry or laugh a little: "Second sister, this is not appropriate - if the elders in the family know, I am afraid that they will be blamed." ”

It is not advisable to lose the mind of a plaything.

"What's in the way? The combination of work and rest is the long-term way, just raising a bird, is it possible to delay your studies? Besides, it can not only learn to speak, but also memorize poems, all for the eldest brother to read. Zhang Meishou asked seriously: "Could it be that the eldest brother doesn't like it?" ”

Zhang Qiuchi couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly denied it: "The second sister sent it, how can I not like it." ”

It's just, what is it to have a bird read to him?

Why is the second sister's head always different from others......

"Then the eldest brother just accepts it, so that people can give birth to it, and if their mother asks about it, they will say that I put it here to raise it."

The implication is that I will only take care of it, and I will be responsible for what happens.

Seeing her sitting there in a small place, but as if she was very capable of carrying things for him, Zhang Qiuchi felt both funny and moved.

"Then the eldest brother has thanked the second sister here."

He didn't make any more excuses.

Zhang Meishou smiled at this time.

Zhang Qiuchi looked at the wren brother carefully, and couldn't help but smile and said: "Starling dogs, wren cats, where is the second sister looking for me to read, obviously bought me a master to come back." ”

Zhang Meishou moved the corners of his mouth: "Big brother still can't understand?" ”

Tian really didn't lie to her.

She didn't know what kind of gift to prepare before, but she went to ask Tian yesterday, and Tian smiled and told her that Zhang Qiuchi especially likes to raise birds since she was a child, but she is afraid that Zhang Qiuchi's playthings will lose her mind, and then displease the elders in the family, so she quietly let go of the birds he caught several times.

Later, when Zhang Qiuchi was older, he understood her words, so he stopped catching birds to raise them.

So, this is the matter of Zhang Meishou sending birds.

She didn't instigate Zhang Qiuchi to have fun, but he was too restrained, even if he really let him go to play, it would not be easy to do.

In life, there must be some fun.

She originally thought about buying a more beautiful starling, but when she inquired, she said that Brother Wren lived longer, so she changed her mind.

"Second sister, what do you want to name it?" Zhang Qiuchi seemed extremely attentive.

"It's up to the eldest brother to pick it up."

Zhang Qiuchi thought seriously for a long time.

"It's called...... Da Zhuang, how? ”

Zhang Meishou looked at him in surprise.

I thought that according to the temperament of the eldest brother, the one waiting for this bird must be an elegant name, and it doesn't hurt if it's not elegant, but ...... "big and strong"?

"What does the second sister think?"

Seeing that he seemed to like this name very much, Zhang Meishou only nodded: "Big and strong, naturally it is good." ”

Other than that, she didn't know how to boast.

But this name, at least as soon as you hear it, is extremely frugal.

"Da Zhuang, you will be called Da Zhuang in the future." Zhang Qiuchi said through the birdcage.

The "big strong" in the cage let out a loud chirp.

Zhang Qiuchi was pleasantly surprised: "Second sister, you see, he likes this name very much!" ”

Zhang Meishou: "......"

Are you sure you like it rather than dislike it?

"The eldest son."

At this time, a servant braved the rain to walk to the bottom of the porch and said to the hall, "Someone has sent a congratulatory gift to the eldest prince—"

Zhang Qiuchi was a little surprised.

He didn't have any friends, not to mention that his admission to Songfeng Academy was not publicized at all.

And now it's late, and giving gifts at this time is not like a visit.

"Who sent it?"

"The things have been accepted by the second master, and according to the second master, they were sent by the 'son of the Zhu family'."

"The son of the Zhu family?" Zhang Qiuchi was stunned for a moment, and then immediately looked at Zhang Meishou.

He had heard his father mention the son of the Zhu family many times, and he seemed to be familiar with the second sister.

Zhang Meishou coughed lightly: "The second uncle didn't see the outside, so he accepted it like this." ”

"Even if you receive it, it's not easy to return it. When the coming day, I found a chance to return a gift. ”

It's just that this son of the Zhu family is so hearted at a young age, which is rare.

But when Zhang Qiuchi saw the congratulatory gift with his own eyes, he was surprised.

Uh, if you just said that you want to return the gift, can you take it back?

This gift...... He's just afraid he can't afford to pay it back!
