Chapter 44: The Sound of Cicadas

"Here, touch it."

Xiao Dong tried to reach out and touch it, and sure enough, it was very soft and hot, through a thin layer of hair, he could feel the tender flesh underneath, and even feel the fragile but warm vitality in this little body.

Her appearance was too cautious, which made Qin Lie laugh.

"Don't be afraid, it doesn't peck at people."

Xiao Dong thought, she was not afraid that it would peck people, but that she was afraid that she would have a strong hand and touch it badly.

The chicken finished eating all the millet in Qin Lie's hand, and Qin Lie also pointed to the place where it should be the chicken's chicken and said to Xiaodong: "Look, the millet I just ate is here." ”

Xiao Dong snorted, she felt very awkward.

I don't know why it's awkward, it's awkward anyway.

The chick tries to walk on the quilt, of course, the paws are hooked, otherwise it will be soft and slippery, and it will definitely not be able to walk steadily.

Faced with a head down, of course it is...... Well, Xiaodong.

To be precise, the chick is now walking on her lap across a room of thin quilts.

The chicks are not heavy, about two taels?

But Xiao Dong could clearly feel its weight, as well as its movement at every step, and she didn't dare to move.

She was too awkward, Xiao Dong thought, she should quickly let Qin Lie take this chick away and take it away.

But inadvertently, Xiao Dong saw Qin Lie's expression.

Well, it's early autumn, there's sun, but it's not very hot.

Qin Lie's face was redder than usual, and there were shiny, fine and dense beads of sweat on the tip of his nose and on the door of his head.

Is he hot?

No, he didn't blush when he came in through the window just now.

Is that......

Xiao Dong suddenly understood.

Qin Lie was also nervous.

Yes, Qin Lie was also nervous.

Before coming to the capital, he had never had a girl as young as Xiaodong in his life, and he didn't know how to get along with children. I don't know what they like to play, what they like to eat, what they like to talk about.

He sent someone to the street to find this chicken at noon. It should be novel and interesting, but there should be nothing wrong with it, and it should be easy to hide and carry. The long-term follower also put a lot of effort into it, and finally found several things for him to come back, including two chicks.

Qin Lie hesitated for a moment, but still chose a chick to bring over.

Xiao Dong had never been so close to Qin Lie before, so close that he could see the slightest expression on his face.

Qin Lie's nose is very high and straight, as if he has heard someone say that people with such noses are also very determined. The eyebrows are thick, the eyelashes are thick, and the black ones are long and dense. He also has a groove on his chin, which is very handsome.

Since he saw Dongfang Undefeated, Xiao Dong felt that no matter how handsome a person is, if his chin does not grow this groove, he will have to make a big discount, and he always feels that he is lacking something.

The chick is not afraid of people at all, pacing slowly on the quilt, looking unhurried, looking very confident, well, very general.

Although I can't see it now, Xiaodong intuitively thinks that this should be a little rooster, and when he grows up, he must have a concave belly and a lively spirit all day long.

Thinking so, she asked, "Is this a little?" ”

"Probably right?" Qin Lie wasn't sure, he didn't have much research on chickens. If two big chickens stand in front of you, the male and female are clear at a glance. Chicks...... They all look the same, and I really can't tell the difference.

The two of them are entangled for the sex of the chick.

The chick didn't recognize it, and looked at Xiao Dong with a bright spirit, his head was still slightly tilted to the side, and his eyes were round and black, as if he was weighing how much weight this big guy had and whether it would pose a threat to it.

Qin Lie was on the side, feeling that Xiao Dong tilted his head, and the appearance of the little chicken tilting his head to look at each other was very similar.

Maybe the eyes of children are all the same, innocent, pure, frank, persistent......

There is no haze and cloudiness, no fear and intimidation, no interest and calculation......

Suddenly, there was the sound of soft footsteps outside.

Xiao Dong and Qin Lie both heard it.

Although she sent everyone out, whether it was the Hu family or the red silk family, she would definitely not rest assured that she was alone in the house. Besides, she's still sick.

Qin Lie moved extremely fast, stretched out his hand to bring the chick together, and walked to the window in two steps. Xiao Dong hurriedly lay down and covered the quilt.

At the same time that the door curtain was lifted, Qin Lie had already turned out, but the window sash had not yet had time to close.

It was Hongying who came.

She tiptoed to the bed, and Xiao Dong closed his eyes and lay there honestly motionless.

Hongying looked at the half-open window, but she didn't think much about it, she just felt that it was blown open by the wind.

When she closed the window and turned around, her eyes fell on the bed again, but she found something strange—

It's on the quilt, what's wrong? How did it get crumpled?

Also, what is this beach?

Hongying leaned down and took a closer look, Xiaodong's whole body was tense nervously, and she kept reminding herself in her heart to keep her breathing steady, don't be nervous, and don't be afraid......

This one...... It seems to be ...... Bird poop?

Well, I can't help but say that Hongying actually guessed correctly.

Chickens are also birds, and birds are also birds.

Where did the guano come from in this house?

Hongying was extremely puzzled.

But she quickly gave herself an answer.

It must have been that the window was not closed just now, and maybe some birds flew in, grabbed the quilt, and pulled a puddle of on it!

A good quilt was ruined like this.

Fortunately, the county lord was not woken up by the bird, which is a blessing.

Hongying secretly made up her mind that she must kill the window next time, so as not to encounter such a thing again.

She sat silently on the side of the screen to do needlework, and Xiao Dong finally relaxed a little more than just now.

Fortunately, Qin Lie ran fast, otherwise he would have been caught.

The afternoon sun shines on the window, and the window paper looks crystal clear and bright. The wind chimes under the eaves tinkling. Xiao Dong lay down like this, and he really fell asleep after a while.

In her dream she saw the chick again, yellow and fluffy, a small clump walking around in front of her with vigour. When she got closer, the chick suddenly turned around and spat out, but it was Qin Lie's voice.

In the dream, Xiao Dong didn't feel scared, just giggled. Sit in front of the chick and listen to him babble.

When she woke up, she didn't remember what the Qin Lie chick said in her dream, she just remembered...... I laughed a lot.

The face was a little sour, maybe it was because I had been laughing for too long in my dreams.

Hongying saw that she was awake, so she hurriedly poured water for her to drink, and took the warm quilt to replace this one on her body.

Xiao Dong listened to her complain to Hong Aya with some weakness, and a "wild bird" flew into the house to wreak havoc, and her shoulders trembled with laughter.

Zhao Lu and the others came back soon, probably trotting over from the door, their faces flushed.

"How's my sister doing today?"

"Well, that's good." Xiao Dong muttered in a low voice: "Actually, I occasionally have a small illness...... Not bad ...... either."

Zhao Lu didn't hear it clearly, but seeing Xiao Dong's complexion and spirit, he laughed along.

Shen Qiang and Yao Jinfeng were not as fast as Zhao Lu, they walked in one after the other. Shen Qiang was holding a book in her hand, full of thoughts and thinking about repeating to Xiao Dong what she had talked about in class today. Yao Jinfeng followed her, her steps were brisker than usual, with a little smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she had an extremely precious and beautiful secret hidden in her heart.

I don't know which tree, the cicada suddenly chirped.

The sound was not as restless and muffled as the cicadas in summer, but with a little autumn warmth, it spread far and near.
