......

By the time the tricycle arrived at the teahouse, the time had not yet reached 7 o'clock, so after Su Changqing waved goodbye to Yuanguang, he walked into the teahouse leisurely with the erhu in his arms, and then ran directly to the place behind the vegetable market.

This is also a market, but it is a market selling poultry, Su Changqing has been here before, so he is very familiar with the road.

What he wants to buy is naturally chicken, if it is a colorful chicken, it would be even better, but Su Changqing turned around, not to mention that there are colorful chickens for sale, and there is not even a single hair of the red chicken, which makes Su Changqing very worried.

I used to hear the old man say that this rooster should be a red bird. This animal is born to restrain all evil spirits. Therefore, Su Changqing planned to raise a chicken and give himself a house.

Although the process of raising a town house chicken is very complicated, it has to feed wine, poisonous insects and red peppers, but he still wants to raise a chicken, not for anything else, just because it can improve the safety around him a lot.

Although there are two monks living in the family, Su Changqing doesn't know how many catties and taels they have, so he won't give his life to the unknown.

And after raising a town house chicken, he also wants to raise a few old roosters to see if he can temporarily replace the underage town house chicken.

Just a few turns, he still didn't find any white chicken seedlings, and when he was a little disappointed, a middle-aged man sitting behind the chicken coop put down the cigarette in his hand and strode towards Su Changqing.

Then, his voice came, his voice was very loud, the volume was like thunder, and the big fan-like hand suddenly pressed Su Changqing's shoulder, making him unable to move immediately.

"Old man, I see you've been wandering around here for a long time, what do you want to buy? ”

Su Changqing didn't care about the man's impolite behavior, but just glanced back at the chicken coop behind the big man, and found that they were all ordinary chickens and chickens, and his heart was slightly disappointed.

"Baby, I see that you don't have anything, where do you say that there are many goods?"

The big man smiled and said, "Old man, you don't understand, of course the good goods are placed at home, and these chickens are just outside to see." ”

"Oh?" Su Changqing became slightly interested after hearing this, "What do you have at home?"

"Old man, tell me first, how do I know what you want?"

"Colorful chickens. ”

Su Changqing immediately reported the name of the rooster breed he wanted the most.

"This ...... It's hard to find this chicken...... What else do you want?"

Dahan scratched his head, a little embarrassed, after all, he had just released a big word, and now he was immediately slapped in the face, and his face suddenly became a little unbearable.

"That'...... "Knowing that there is no hope for this colorful chicken, Su Changqing reported the second variety, and he was also a little expectant in his heart.

"No ......"

The expression on the man's face became more and more wrong, and his heart became more and more embarrassed, but he stayed where he was and saw what the old man would say.

"......" Su Changqing frowned, talking in his mouth, but he no longer had hope in his heart, "What about the white chicken?"

It's just that when the big man on the opposite side heard the word "white chicken", his face was slightly happy, and he nodded like pounding garlic, "Yes, yes, this one, at home, old man, will you go with me?"

After Su Changqing on the other side got the answer, he was also happy in his heart, but after learning the price quoted by the man, he lowered his head and pondered for a while, glanced at the big man, and then nodded slowly.

The price of this white chicken seedling is even higher than he knew, it must be because the other party sees that he is old and easy to deceive, so he casually quotes a price.

Therefore, Su Changqing looked at him with a smile and said, "Your chicken seedlings are so expensive, you must choose one with good quality for me." ”

The big man smiled and hurriedly said, "That's good, that's good." ”

After speaking, the man helped him, rode a tricycle, and drove to Huanhu Village with Su Changqing.

Now that the sun is shining and the autumn wind is blowing, it is slightly gloomy, Su Changqing wrapped himself tightly with a scarf, revealing a pair of cloudy eyes, looking at the scenery on the road slightly hazy.

He walks this road every day and is already very familiar with it, but when his eyes look at the fallen leaves on the road, he sighs a little.

Unexpectedly, it is already late autumn...... He's been here for about half a year.

In half a year, he has changed a lot, and even his lifestyle has become no longer the same, but more energetic than when he was in a nursing home.

It's as if the whole person has hope.

Thinking of this, he looked up at the somewhat dazzling sun, and the corners of his mouth slowly hooked a smile, just because his eyes couldn't stand the light of the direct sun, and unconsciously, a touch of crystal appeared in the corner of his eyes.

He felt ...... The present days are more ...... than the previous days It's much better.

......

The tricycle drove very fast, and many evergreen trees passed them one by one, Su Changqing looked around, but suddenly found a fallen leaf floating in his arms.

The leaf was golden and a little transparent, he touched the veins of the leaf, put it in front of his eyes and looked at it stunned, then let go of his hand, and watched the autumn wind blow, and the leaf drifted away to an unknown distance.

The car continued to drive for a while, and soon the man's voice rang out.

"Old man, it's here. ”

Dahan smiled, stopped the tricycle, and helped Su Changqing down.

This is the entrance of Huanhu Village, but now, next to the entrance of the village, it is obvious that this piece is empty, as if something is missing.

...... That's it...... Then the shadow ghost has to solve it himself.

Su Changqing sighed slightly, and followed the big man who sold chickens to the side of a small bungalow.

There are many small houses like this in the village, and there are no man-made houses in the original earthen houses.

In front of the house is a courtyard where many clucking chickens, both native and white, live.

It looks like there's quite a lot.

Su Changqing nodded and looked at these plump chickens, looking quite satisfied.

Then he was helped into the house, and the man poured him warm water, and went out to catch the chicken.

With the sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping, the man held a small white chicken in his arms and appeared in the hall in a slightly embarrassed manner.

"Caught?"

Su Changqing drank water and looked at the little chicken in the man's hand with some curiosity.

"Hmm. The big man smiled innocently and handed over the fluffy chick in his hand.

The chicken stayed in the man's rough palm, chirping at Su Changqing and screaming, his voice was very immature, and when he saw him stretching out his hand to touch himself, not only was he not afraid, but he also stretched out his neck and pecked him a few times.

It's a pity that Su Changqing has rough skin and thick meat, and he didn't peck blood, which is probably related to the young age of the chicken.

"Do you still have a 5 or 6 year old rooster here?"

Su Changqing teased the little chick, looked up and asked the man.

“...... Yes, yes!"

Dahan was stunned for a moment, although he couldn't understand why he wanted this kind of old rooster, but he still nodded.

"How many?"

“...... Five of them. ”

Su Changqing thought about it for a while and decided to choose the auspicious number "five".

The "Five ......" big man was a little embarrassed, but in the end he still nodded.

"That's ......" Su Changqing let out a long sigh, rubbed his waist, and took out a few bills from his pocket and gave them to the man.

"I'll pay you the rest in the evening, so I'll leave this chicken here for the time being......"

He said slowly, "I'll come back and get ...... when I get off work today."
