MTL - Those Years of Dressing As An Animal-Chapter 122
The flower and bird market in Chengnan District of City A.
"Boss, how much will this little squirrel sell for?"
In front of the stall, a young boy in a school uniform and black-rimmed glasses asked the boss.
Hearing the little boy's words, the boss didn't look down on the child's purchasing power, and hurriedly said with a smile: "Little classmate, this little squirrel can be brought home immediately for only 300 yuan. By the way, I can also send a cage. Don't you bring one to the house?"
As soon as the boss finished his words, a fat man standing beside the boy with black-rimmed glasses asked questioningly, "Xiao Liang, didn't you say you came here to buy a kitten, why are you buying this squirrel again?"
Fatty Xiaozhi and Xiaoliang are not only classmates, but also at the same table. The two families live close together. When they were not in school, they often played together in the community. They had a very good relationship. Xiaozhi heard Xiaoliang say that today After school in the afternoon, he planned to go to the flower and bird market to buy a cat to take home. He also liked small animals and came with him at the same table.
It's just after four in the afternoon, it's still early, and the city's public security has always been very good. In addition, the two young students are both natives and they are very familiar with the local area, so they are not afraid to come together after school. What will happen when you visit this flower and bird market.
"Three hundred yuan!" Xiao Liang hesitated after hearing the boss's answer.
But after hearing the words of Xiao Zhi, who was at the same table, Xiao Liang quickly explained: "Oh, I don't think this little squirrel looks really cute, you look at it, it's so cute all over the body, and there is another one. The big fluffy tail, so small, can stay in my hands..."
Xiaoliang praised the cute little squirrel in front of the same table.
What Xiaoliang said is not wrong. The little squirrel in the cage on the boss's stall is really cute. It looks cute, the whole body is small, and there is a big tail. It can even be fluffy. When its parasol...
Such a cute little creature immediately caught Xiao Liang's eyes, making him suddenly stop in front of the boss's booth, and even took the initiative to ask the price.
"Indeed..." After listening to the words of the same table, the little fat man also nodded, agreeing with what he just said.
The two elementary school students continued to stand at the boss's booth for a long time, staring at the sleeping squirrel in the cage with squinting eyes, reluctant to leave.
The boss is quite tolerant towards the children, and he didn't think that the two children standing in front of his booth would influence other customers to come over, so he didn't drive them away.
"Ah~" Suddenly, Xiao Liang sighed, "Unfortunately, I have just bought a kitten, otherwise I will definitely bring this cute little squirrel home at this time."
As expected, Xiao Liang was carrying a small cage in his hand, which contained a cow-colored kitten, meowing from time to time, making people's hearts melt when they heard it.
Hearing this, the little fat man didn't understand, "You can't buy a squirrel if you have a kitten? Or is it that you've spent all your money and you don't have enough money to buy a squirrel? I can lend you my pocket money for the time being!"
Sure enough, he was a good friend, and the little fat man was willing to lend his hard-earned pocket money to the same table.
After listening to the fat man's words, Xiao Liang still reluctantly shook his head, "It's not about money, it's mainly because the squirrel is also a mouse. It and the cat are natural enemies, how can they be raised together? Don't keep the squirrel at that time. It didn't take long to bring it home, and it was killed by the kitten!"
Xiao Liang knew more than Little Fatty, so for the sake of the little squirrel's life, he never thought about bringing it home with the kitten.
"Well, you managed to convince your parents that you can bring a kitten home to keep, then this little squirrel really can't be brought back together." The little fat Xiaozhi also showed regret on his face.
Just as the two little classmates were standing in front of the boss's booth and talking loudly, the rat, who had been staring at them all the time, finally woke up in the cage.
[Ah, what animal is the star this time? 】
[It's another plush hehehe, it looks very cute, and it's so small. 】
【squirrel? What is a squirrel? I have only heard of rats in history books. It is said that they are not good animals. They are one of the four evils that people see! 】
[So these two children want to buy the stars and take them home? It seems that this time it is a domestic pet again, but domestic pets are actually quite good. Humans help to feed and serve them, and there is no need for Xingxing to worry about eating, drinking and living in this life! 】
Chen Xing, who finally opened his eyes and woke up, quickly understood the current situation.
This time, Chen Xingchuan turned into a two-month-old squirrel. Not long after weaning, he was brought to the stall in the flower and bird market by the owner of the squirrels behind the breeding.
On the first day he came to the stall, Chen Xing met a buyer who was interested in him, but they were just two elementary school students. Seeing that the other party didn't have the chance to bring him home.
Chen Xing looked across the cage at the two elementary school students who were hesitant to give up, and quickly looked away. He soon found a little rat food in the cage.
It is said to be rat food, but it is actually a bit of nuts. It is a mixture of relatively cheap nuts such as peanuts and melon seeds.
But in the end, they are all nuts, which are very in line with squirrels' hobbies. They are squirrels' favorite delicacy. Even if the price is very cheap, Chen Xing did not dislike it at all.
This body had just slept, and Chen Xing's stomach was also hungry. He hurriedly came to the small pile of rat food and picked a large peanut still in its shell.
The squirrel's teeth are very strong, and many hard nuts can be opened, so Chen Xing quickly used the pair of front teeth to bite open the peanut shell, revealing the peanut kernel with a thin brown coat inside.
Chen Xing threw the uneatable peanut shell aside, holding a very plump large peanut kernel with two small paws and began to eat it bit by bit with his front teeth.
Peanuts are rich in oil and taste particularly fragrant. Chen Xing ate it fragrantly. The front teeth moved and the cheek pouches on both sides moved with the teeth occlusion, which made people want to poke.
Chen Xing ignored the two elementary school students who were hesitating and struggling, but the two elementary school students kept staring at Chen Xing's movements.
When they saw that the little squirrel in the cage finally opened its eyes and even took the initiative to eat peanuts, the two pupils' eyes widened, and they were even more reluctant to look away from this cute little squirrel.
"It's really cute!" Xiao Liang exclaimed.
"Yeah! It's so cute and cute." Xiao Zhi also agreed with what the tablemate said.
The two of them stood in front of the stall again, staring at the little squirrel in the cage who was concentrating on cooking.
"Ah, yes!" Suddenly, Xiao Liang, who was still holding the kitten in his hand, had an idea, "Xiao Zhi, although I can't bring the little squirrel home, you can! Anyway, you don't have a dog or cat at home. , there is no pet, if you bring the little squirrel home, there will be only one in the house, and it will not be bullied!"
"What? Let me take it home?" The little fat man came back to his senses because of the suggestion from the same table, with a tangled struggle on his face, "But my parents won't necessarily agree with me to keep a little squirrel!"
From childhood to adulthood, Little Fatty has never had any pets in his house, whether it was a cat, a dog, or even a goldfish tortoise.
Little Fatty used to argue with his parents about getting a cat or a dog, but after a few days, his parents still didn't nod in agreement, saying that keeping pets is too troublesome, and cats and dogs are easy to bite. It is impossible to agree to his request.
The struggle was fruitless, and the little fat man could not defeat the strong adult in the end, and the idea of raising a pet was not possible at all.
Today, the reason why the little fat man came to this flower and bird market to bring a kitten to his home was because he liked fluffy pets too much, but he had never raised them at home.
He also wants to see the kitten with his own eyes, and it is best to touch it!
After listening to the tangled words of the little fat man, Xiao Liang, who was beside him, didn't take it seriously, and said confidently: "Hey, why do I think you are hesitating! The little squirrel is so cute, as long as you bring it home and let it be Your parents get along with the little squirrel for a while, I don't believe they can bear the cuteness of the little squirrel, and they still don't want to leave the little squirrel behind!"
"Besides, the little squirrel is so small that it only eats a little every day. Whether it is feeding it or cleaning the toilet, it is much more convenient than raising a cat or a dog. You can solve it by yourself, without your dad at all. Mom is here to intervene."
"It's so easy to have a cute little pet, how could your parents disagree with you leaving the little squirrel?"
At this time, Xiaoliang simply used the situation of his own house as an analogy, and firmly believed that as long as the same table brought this cute little squirrel home, and he acted like a spoiled child, then his uncle and aunt would definitely be reluctant to give the little squirrel away. Come back and only leave the little squirrel behind.
Hearing his deskmate said so confidently, the little fat man's eyes lit up, "Really? Will my parents really be willing to keep the little squirrel?"
"Of course it's true!" Xiaoliang continued, "I have kittens in my house and squirrels in your house, we can go to each other's house to see each other's pets, and we don't have to worry about the cat and the squirrel living together. Let's fight, what a result!"
The more Xiaoliang thought about it, the more he felt that this method was very successful!
Hearing what Xiao Liang said, the little fat man's mind became more and more shaken.
In the end, the little fat man was persuaded by the good proposal of the same table, took out 300 yuan from his schoolbag and handed it to the somewhat stunned boss.
Chen Xing, who was concentrating on cooking in the cage, was handed over to Little Fatty, and he was then taken home by him.
