Chapter 5: Rooster 1
"What's wrong with their family?" Xia Beifeng was a little interested when he heard this, and asked the child curiously.
"What a family! Gee. The child pretended to shake his head, looking like an adult with a lot of emotion: "The dead people's money earned by their family is lacking in morality, and it is light to cut off children and grandchildren!" ”
Xia Beifeng was amused by the child's pretending mature tone, and then forcibly held back his smile and asked him with a serious face: "Why is their family lacking morality?" ”
"It's just a lack of morality......" The child lowered his head and frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly clapped his hands, raised his head and said to Xia Beifeng: "The old lady of their family may have scolded people before, and she was not tired of standing at the head of the village and scolding all day, but then she was sick and couldn't get out of the house, and she scolded people in the house, and she scolded whoever passed by his door...... My dad said that the old lady couldn't get up because of the lack of morality in the family and the fact that she did too much. ”
"Hmm...... Anything else? ”
"Their family had money a few years ago, and it is said that they bought several houses in the city, but they refused to leave because they had to live in the village. Afterward...... You know what? The child asked mysteriously, and was satisfied to see Xia Beifeng's curious gaze, and then continued in a low voice: "Later, their family had a car accident in the city, and the eldest son died directly without even a human form. The second son almost couldn't even go to school. ”
"You've said so much, and I still don't understand." Xia Beifeng looked at the children around him in confusion, "What did their family do that lacked morality?" ”
"Big brother, I'll tell you the truth, I don't know much about this, and I just know a little bit about it. However, people I know say that their family has encountered so many unfortunate things because of a lack of morality and doing too many things. The boy sighed again and complained, "No one will tell me, and I will ask them that the children should not inquire about it, hmph......"
"Hmm......"
"There is another thing, I heard that their daughter-in-law ...... Gave birth to a freak with four hands and three legs...... He was born in seven months, and he died when he was born! The child frowned and puffed out his cheeks, and asked Xia Beifeng, "Big brother, do you think this is possible?" ”
Got pregnant with a freak and had a miscarriage?
Xia Beifeng didn't speak, but went through the child's words in his mind and smiled.
It seems to be a little interesting.
The child who was running ahead suddenly stopped.
"Hey...... Big brother, we're here. The child pointed to a courtyard next to him and said to Xia Beifeng: "Have you seen it, just the rooster standing on the roof, it's delicious at first glance, right?" ”
Xia Beifeng looked up at the family's house.
There was indeed a big rooster, with oily orange feathers, pacing slowly on the roof, like a beastmaster patrolling his territory.
"That's good." Xia Beifeng nodded to the kid and patted him on the shoulder approvingly, "Well done, there should be a reward." ”
After he said this, he took out a whole packet of toffee out of nowhere and put it in the child's hand.
The child looked at the toffee in his hand in surprise for a while, and then reacted and bowed deeply to Xia Beifeng's back.
"Thank you, big brother."
Xia Beifeng waved his hand at him with his back, raised his hand and knocked on the door of the family.
The kid didn't leave after getting the money, found a stone on the side of the road and sat down, and stared at the toffee bag in his hand for a moment.
Then he unzipped his jacket and put the whole packet of toffee into his clothes, and then zipped it up again. Then he stood up and spun around, jumped a few times, and after making sure that there was no problem, he patted his stomach a few times proudly.
The plastic bag of toffee rattled in his clothes, but it never fell off.
He glanced up at Xia Beifeng, who was gesturing and talking to the owner of the house, and reached out and took out the piece of toffee that was given to him separately from his pocket.
I don't know what brand the toffee is, but it says that I bought a twisted foreign word, which looks very high-end.
The child opened the wrapper of the toffee and carefully licked it with his tongue.
He smacked his lips, tasted the taste, his eyes lit up, and then he threw the whole piece of toffee into his mouth.
Xia Beifeng had already negotiated the price with the owner of the big rooster at this time, and was ready to go to the roof to catch the roof he had just bought.
The rooster was still walking on the roof with his chest held high, not having the slightest premonition of the danger that was coming.
It wasn't until Xia Beifeng stood beside it that it flapped its wings a few times in surprise and jumped to the ground.
Unexpectedly, its black-hearted owner grabbed him before it landed, tied his wings with ropes, and handed them to Xia Beifeng, who also jumped down with it.
The chicken struggled desperately for a while in Xia Beifeng's hand while screaming, but it didn't play a role.
Even its original owner picked up the axe, seemingly intending to finish it off right here.
In the end, it was Xia Beifeng who saved its life and temporarily rescued it from its original owner, who was full of joy and was about to give away free after-sales service.
Xia Beifeng walked out of the yard with a big rooster that was still fluttering, and turned around and smiled and waved goodbye to the owner of the house.
"Big brother, what are we going to do next!" The kid stood up straight, roaring loudly at the north wind, but his eyes never left the big in his hand.
"Nothing." Xia Beifeng glanced back at him and smiled at him, "I have other things, you go home and have lunch." ”
"I don't have lunch ......" The kid said aggrievedly, but soon came to his senses again, and said to Xia Beifeng excitedly: "Big brother, I still have something to tell you, but if you want to hear it, you must take me to play." ”
Kid, which eye of yours sees me as if I'm playing!
Xia Beifeng sighed and asked kindly: "What's the matter, you tell me first, I will decide whether to play with you depending on the situation." ”
"No!" The kid took a step back firmly and shook his head, "Although you say that I am the eldest brother, but the rules still have to be followed, you promise me first, and I will speak." ”
"I don't even know what you're trying to say, what if it's boring?"
"Don't worry, it's definitely interesting!" The child patted his chest and raised his head proudly, "It's the matter of the dead man's family you asked, I promise that I will know about this matter alone after the whole village, and you can't ask anyone else if you find it!" ”
"But I still think I'm a little at a loss...... Xia Beifeng looked at the kid thoughtfully, and made a suggestion, "Otherwise, you talk about half of it first, if I listen to it interesting, I'll take you, if it's not interesting, don't continue to talk about it, just go home." ”
The boy fell silent again, and after a while he said, "Well, for the sake of you being my eldest brother, I'll give you a discount." ”
"Then you can follow me...... I'll just listen to it. After Xia Beifeng said this, he carried the rooster in his hand and walked in a certain direction.
"Their family, the old and the young often have nothing to do when they go out in the middle of the night and don't know what to do, and then one night I was out playing too late, and when I came home, I happened to meet their group, and they were carrying a big wooden box, and I quietly followed them for a while...... Big brother, guess what I saw? ”
"Hmm......" Xia Beifeng looked up at the sky, thought for a while, and then lowered his head to the child behind him and said, "You saw them go to the cemetery, right?" ”
"Damn, big brother, how do you know!" The kid was really scared this time, he looked at Xia Beifeng in surprise, and his mouth was open enough to stuff an egg into it.
"Hmm...... Well, I won't tell you this. Xia Beifeng smiled at him, and then asked, "What happened later?" ”
"I don't know very well, I didn't dare to approach and left, but I can remember that the box carried by the four people is gone." The kid raised his head and recalled for a while, and suddenly became depressed again: "Big brother, you really can't play with me, can you?" ”
"Tomorrow......" Xia Beifeng smiled and touched his head twice, as if he had just remembered something, and asked the child: "Speaking of which, I didn't even ask what your name is, what is your name?" ”
"Sun Hao." The kid replied in a frustrated tone, and quickly raised his head to look at Xia Beifeng: "Big brother, you must come to play with me tomorrow!" ”
Xia Beifeng nodded, pointed to the two jujube trees in the yard by the roadside and said to him: "I'm here, if you're bored, come to me." ”
When he had said this, he did not wait for the boy to reply, but went into the yard with a rooster in his hand.
The child stood on the side of the road in frustration, watching Xia Beifeng enter the house, and lowered his head aggrievedly, like a puppy abandoned by his owner.
When Xia Beifeng saw Ye Baiyu again, he was facing a bed full of "patients". Leisurely eating melon seeds. Su Yang sat opposite him and also swallowed melon seeds together, looking at Ye Baiyu curiously while snorting melon seeds, his eyes flickering, and he didn't know what bad idea he was thinking.
"Did you bring anything?" Ye Baiyu didn't look up, and he recognized that the person who had just entered the door was Xia Beifeng.
"Pretty much." Xia Beifeng threw the bag in his hand over, "I also bought a rooster, and now it's tied outside, it depends on when you are going to kill it." ”
"Let's not kill it yet." Ye Baiyu took the travel bag, opened it and rummaged through all the things he wanted. Only then did he look up at Xia Beifeng and said: "It doesn't matter if there is chicken blood in this situation now, keep that chicken, I think it may be useful in the future."
"Oh, good." Xia Beifeng nodded, stood in the corner of the window and lit a cigarette, "Speaking of which, I have gained a little bit from this trip......"
