"Bring it back to your mother, and when it enters your house, it can also live a rich life, and with me, it can only eat fish and shrimp every day." She said.

Han Ji is not reluctant, and he is not interested in parrots.

The boat is boring, Haizhu is happy to watch the parrot learn to talk to people, it is big, eats a lot and is hungry fast, every day on the boat to rummage other people's goods to find food. The fruit is not resistant to hunger, and the bacon cannot be gnawed, so it can only be eaten with people three meals a day according to people's habits.

"Haizhu—"

Hearing the sound, Haizhu picked a bowl of rice and put it on the ground, peeled three shrimp and put it in the bowl, and the parrot walked in with its big paws, and it walked to the bowl to peck the rice.

Han Ji looked at the bird while eating and said, "It learns words very quickly. ”

"I've found it too, and I'm smart, I think it's more than Chaoping's mind." Haizhu peeled another shrimp for it.

"You really don't raise it?" Han Ji asked again.

"No, give it to your mother, I'll feed it when I'm idle."

After eating, Haizhu opened the box and took out two apples, and the parrot immediately threw away the rice bowl and flew to the table to stare at her hand, and handed the apple in front of her, it pecked it down, and turned its head to turn its eyes.

"What's your name?" Haizhu asked.

The parrot didn't answer, but ate another piece of apple before asking, "You don't keep birds?" ”

"No, you're eating too much." Another thing is that it's too smart.

The parrot spread its wings and hit her.

Chapter 201: Together

After eight days at sea, and the twenty-seventh day after leaving Yongning, the official ship loaded with goods returned.

Yongning Pier came into view, Haizhu couldn't sit still, she excitedly walked out of the cabin, leaned on the railing and looked into the distance, muttering to the parrot standing in the window: "This is my home." ”

She was tired of looking at the sea on the boat, but when she looked at the sea that belonged to Yongning alone, she was happy again.

The parrot cleaned its feathers and ignored her, and when it saw Han Ji coming over, it "clucked" and said hello.

Han Ji glanced at it, walked up to Haizhu and said, "You're home." ”

"Hmm." Haizhu nodded heavily, "It's better for us in Guangnan." ”

The merchants on the board of the ship also began to pack their luggage, and the bedding on the board was folded up and stuffed into the baskets, and before the boat stopped, they were already lined up to disembark.

"Are you going straight back to Fucheng, or are you spending the night in Yongning?" Haizhu asked.

"Go back to Fucheng directly, I'll come back when the things on the ship are taken care of." Han Ji looked at the quarryman on the other boat who was like a refugee, these people's conduct had not yet been figured out, he wanted to take people to the island where the sailor was stationed to take care of them, and those who could find their families would be put back, and those who could not find their families would find work on the island first, and they would not be able to leave Quang Nam anyway. They know the way of human trafficking, and they have suffered what ordinary people have not suffered, so they may not be able to have a twisted mind and embark on the path of persecuting others.

The official ship docked, and the merchants of Yongning disembarked first.

"The ship docked at Yongning Wharf for three hours, and after three hours continued westward, trying to get off the ship and estimate the time." The steward of the ship shouted.

In three hours, Han Ji can have a meal in Yongning and go to see his mother again.

The guards disembarked with the things Haizhu had bought, and the parrot fluttered its wings and landed on the box containing the apples, staring at the people on the dock with pride.

The seabirds on the reef on the shore looked at it in unison, their richly colored feathers shining in the sunlight, their powerful claws, sharp beaks, and huge sizes, they were quiet for a moment, and then reacted to the noisy chirping of birds.

"Where is this bird? It's so good-looking. Du Xiaowu leaned over and asked, "It's the first time I've seen a bird of this color, and it's also a seabird?" ”

The parrot was coldly silent, and it raised its paws to kick away its outstretched fingers.

"Yo, it's not afraid of people." Du Xiaowu touched the bird's head, turned his head and said, "Haizhu, you're back." ”

"What? Something happened to my family? "Haizhu is nervous.

"That's not true, it's just that I haven't seen you for a long time, I'm not used to it, and people in your family often come and wait."

Haizhu smiled at him, took two big coconuts to him and Mao Xiaoer, and said: "Qiongya's specialty, the water in it can be drunk, the white coconut meat can be stewed chicken, and the coconut water can also be stewed chicken." ”

Du Xiaowu took the coconut and thanked him.

The live chicken brought down from the bottom warehouse clucked at the throat, the parrot turned its head and flew down on Han Ji's shoulder, Han Ji reached out to bounce it away, and it reluctantly landed on Haizhu's shoulder.

"You're dead." Haizhu took its paws and pulled off her shoulders, hugged it and walked back, saying, "Don't speak, I'll go back and catch worms for you to eat." ”

The parrot learned to "cluck", and honestly nested in Haizhu's arms without speaking.

Shopkeeper Li was about to go to buy mountain goods, and when he saw Haizhu, he was surprised and said, "Haizhu is back?" You're back, I haven't seen you in a long time, and I always feel like something is missing. ”

"yes, I'm back, and I'm homesick when I'm gone."

"Is it fun outside?" The tavern owner came out and asked.

Haizhu thought for a moment and said, "It's fun, I've opened my eyes and seen a lot." ”

"You're hesitating, it doesn't seem to be fun." The grandmother who sells tofu said.

Haizhu laughed heartily and said, "I found out that our Guangnan is good after going out, and it is worth going out." ”

"What chicken are you holding in your arms? The chickens outside look different from our Yongning chickens. The daughter-in-law of the pig killer asked.

"This is a bird, it's a parrot, its hometown is Dali, and it sneaked on the boat and came back with us." Haizhu pinched the bird's beak to prevent it from making a sound.

Han Ji walked behind Haizhu, and there was a step between the two, but the people on the street talked to Haizhu, and no one paid attention to him.

Turning into the alley, the neighbors who sat under the tree to enjoy the shade greeted Haizhu in surprise and warmly, and after talking to people, they asked about the bird in her arms, and finally said: The young general is also here?

"I seem to have been brought back by you, and last year these neighbors treated me with enthusiasm, and this year I have become a dispensable person." Han Ji felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"Your light is obscured by me." Haizhu laughed, turned into Qingshi Lane, she turned around and handed him the parrot, ran quickly to the house, kept greeting the neighbors, and shouted before entering the door: "Milk, Dongzhu, Fengping, Second Uncle, Chaoping, I'm back!" ”

"Ahh Dongzhu was doing her laundry when she jumped up and ran out when she heard the sound.

"My eldest sister is back?" Feng Ping and Shiohei ran out of the house.

Grandma Qi also put down the work in her hand and walked out, and Second Uncle Qi sat under the eaves and stretched out his neck to look out.

Haizhu hugged her younger brothers and sisters, she hugged Grandma Qi, and then rushed into the house and shouted, "Second uncle, I'm back." ”

"It's good to come back, we look forward to it at home every day." Second Uncle Qi smiled and bared his teeth.

Han Ji also came in with a parrot, he greeted people one by one, and everyone shouted.

The guards who followed behind came in with their things, and as soon as the things were put down, Mrs. Hou and Changsheng next door came over, and the neighbors in the alley also followed, and they stood in the courtyard and asked Haizhu where she went.

"I'm hungry." The parrot tilted its head and spoke.

There was a moment of silence in the courtyard, and the children who were close to the parrot screamed in fright and cried out, shouting that the monster was coming.

"It's not a monster, it's a bird that learns to speak, and it's called a parrot." Han Ji rubbed his forehead and spoke.

"It's the first time I've seen such a big parrot, bigger than the parrot raised by the concubine in the palace." Mrs. Hou spoke up.

As soon as they heard that it was raised by a noble person in the palace, the neighbors were instantly afraid, and they looked curiously around the parrot and teased it before talking.

Haizhu brought a plate, cut an apple for it, and then grabbed a handful of dried shrimp and put it on the plate, afraid that it would not be enough to eat, so he grabbed a handful of rice and beans and put them on the plate.

"No wonder it's a thing raised by a nobleman, and it looks unusual." Erwang Milk was speechless, "What else will it say?" ”

"It speaks a lot, it's smart, and it can talk to people." Haizhu could foresee the enthusiasm and curiosity of the neighbors about this parrot, she glanced at Han Ji and said, "Uncle, you take the parrot away later, with it with you, the house will be lively." ”

"You brought it back to me?" Mrs. Hou was pleasantly surprised.

Haizhu nodded, let her misunderstand.

"She doesn't let you raise it." The parrot exposed Haizhu's lies, it shook off the shrimp shell, and said in a childish voice: "The bird is not the ...... she brought back"

Haizhu covered her face, she knocked on it, and explained: "It was it that sneaked on to the boat by itself, and when it found it, it had already left Dali, and it could only be brought back with delicious food and drink all the way." When she was on the boat, she and Han Ji both asked what it was called and who the owner was, but it didn't answer. When asked if it would like to go back, it screamed that it would not go back.

"Good bird, good bird, our Guangnan is better than your hometown, it is a bird with only vision." Erwang praised it and promised: "In the future, let my grandson catch worms for you to eat, you come to our Guangnan, and you will definitely let you eat and drink well." ”

The parrot ignored her and continued to eat the beans.

"Haizhu has been on the boat all the way, she is tired, let her rest first, and you will come back tomorrow to play." Grandma Qi saw her granddaughter's tiredness and opened her mouth to drive people away.

"I'm going to boil hot water." Feng Ping ran to the kitchen with a smoke.

"I'll go get my clothes." Dongzhu went into the house.

"I, I'm ......" Chaoping glanced around, brought a comb and said, "Sister, I'll comb your hair." ”

"That's good." Haejoo touched the door of his brain.

Mrs. Hou took the parrot back first, and Han Ji also left with her with Changsheng, not disturbing Haizhu to talk to her family.

"My third uncle and third aunt are not at home?" Haizhu asked.

"Xingzhu's grandmother is sick, and the third child and Bei Niang took the child back to see her." Grandma Qi looked at Haizhuzi and looked around carefully, and said, "I lost weight after going out, didn't I eat well?" ”

"Floating on a boat on the sea is definitely not as comfortable as at home."

"Then don't go out after that." Grandma Qi said tentatively.

"That's not going to work, I'm going to have to go out and have a look." Chaoping combed his hair with just the right strength, Haizhu squinted comfortably, and continued: "Next time I go out to play, our whole family will go out, tired and tired, it is still necessary to open your eyes." ”

"Eldest sister, take me, I'll comb your hair every day." Chaoping said.

"Take you with you, do you comb your father's hair every day? It's a good job, boy. ”

Shiohei grinned.

The three fat cats who caught fish and ate on the beach came back from drying their fur, and when they heard a faintly familiar voice in the alley, they paused for a moment to confirm that it was Haizhu's voice, and they whined and ran home.

Chapter 202: Birds, Turtles, Children

Take a comfortable shower and wash your hair, wash from head to toe, change into old clothes with soaphorn incense, Haizhu pushed open the door and came out, took a deep breath, and felt comfortable.

Hot water was still boiling in the kitchen, six slaughtered and bloodletting chickens were piled up outside the door, and Dongzhu, Fengping and Chaoping sat side by side on a bench holding green coconuts and sucking coconut water from rice stalks. Haizhu combed her hair and sat over, and asked, "Second uncle, why don't you drink?" Don't like the taste? ”

Second Uncle Qi pointed to Chaoping and said, "I'll drink one with him, lest he drink too much and can't eat at night, and he is not allowed to wet the bed at night." ”

"I don't wet the bed." Chaoping is not angry, "Xingzhu just wets the bed." ”

Thinking of Xingzhu, who will be one year old in two months, Haizhu asked, "Can Xingzhu speak?" ”

"It's not very clear, she crawls neatly, and she crawls without seeing anyone in a blink of an eye." Second Uncle Qi said, "The few days you left, she didn't see you still looking for someone, and every time she hugged her, she stretched out her finger and pointed to the house where you slept, and she had to go in and look for it herself. ”

Haizhu was overjoyed, and asked incredulously: "Still looking for me?" ”
