MTL - Those Years of Dressing As An Animal-Chapter 184
"Yo, Mom Qingping, did you come to the market so early today?"
I suddenly met an acquaintance from the village on the street. The old lady Zhang Lian, who was in her 60s, quickly stopped to say hello, "Yes, it's not the day to go to the market today, come and see if there is anything on the street. You can add something to your home, and bring some dishes back by the way.”
"That's good," said another old lady surnamed Hu in the village who was talking to Mrs. Zhang. "By the way, a pig has just been killed at the stall on East Street. It's fresh and the price is affordable. If you want to If you eat pork, you can go and have a look, buy more and freeze it in the refrigerator.”
"Okay, I'll have a look later, thank you for telling me about it."
The two stood on the street and talked for a while. Later, there were more and more people going to the market on the street, and the two of them had other things to do, so they didn't get together for a while, and then they separated.
After separating from the old lady in the same village, Mrs. Zhang first went to the Dongjie stall mentioned by the other party just now. When she got there, she saw the owner of a pork stall who was decomposing a freshly slaughtered big fat pig. , There are already many people around his stall waiting to buy meat.
Seeing this, Mrs. Zhang was thinking about the cats and dogs that needed meat at home, so she also lined up to buy meat.
Mrs. Zhang is now in her 60s, and her two children have grown up. She no longer needs to work to support her family. The children will give her a lot of living expenses every month, which is enough for her to live well in the countryside by herself. life.
Originally, the children also wanted to bring the old lady to the city and they would take care of them in turn. They were reluctant to let her stay in the countryside alone, worrying about her safety. After all, she was also old, and she was afraid of accidents. He fell ill and left, and there was no one at home to accompany the old lady.
However, although the children are filial, the old lady is really not used to the life in the city. She has not made many friends in the city. She would rather live in the countryside and be more free, surrounded by acquaintances and relatives. She is still active in the past few years and can take care of herself, so there is no need to trouble her children so early.
If you really can't move for a few years, then it will be troublesome for your children!
The old lady didn't want to, and the children couldn't force the old lady to live in the city, so they had to let her stay alone in her hometown in the countryside, often calling her to talk to confirm her quality of life and her safety. Lest she accidentally had an accident in her hometown, the children in the city would not know.
In this way, Mrs. Zhang lived by herself in her hometown in the countryside. After five or six years, she is still very strong. She takes care of the inside and outside of the house by herself. Going for a walk, it happens that I also move my body and bones.
There were many people queuing at the pork stall, but the boss was not slow. Mrs. Zhang waited for only ten minutes before she bought a fat and thin pork belly and threw it into the basket in her hand.
After buying pork, Mrs. Zhang continued to wander around the lively farmers market. She saw something unusual, or something that just happened to be consumed at home.
After a while, the shopping basket carried by the old lady Zhang added a lot of things and heavier, but the old lady still carried it very easily. Not surprisingly.
Gradually, Mrs. Zhang came to a stall selling chickens, ducks and geese.
Mrs. Zhang raised chickens in her own yard, but not ducks and geese.
At this moment, Mrs. Zhang saw these fluffy and fluffy little guys on the stall, and she suddenly thought of raising a few.
"Boss, how do you sell ducklings and goslings?"
When the boss saw that someone wanted to buy it, he quickly told the price he set.
After listening to the boss's reply, Mrs. Zhang thought for a while and felt that the price was quite fair. If the duckling and goose bought by the boss were in good health, then the deal would be very worthwhile for the guests.
The boss saw that the old lady Zhang had been thinking and didn't speak, and simply said: "Look, these chicks, ducklings and goslings hatched from my house are in good health, and their spirits are also good. They are very lively, and they will be smooth in the future. Growing up, I still sell at such a fair price, you can't find anything better than me on this whole street..."
"Then let me pick a few!" Mrs. Zhang thought about it for a while, but was persuaded by the boss to start picking ducklings and goslings.
"Have you bought a lot? If you have more, I'll build a cage for you." The boss immediately smiled when he heard that the business was going to be completed.
"Is there only a few geese?" After picking a few ducklings, when it was time to pick the geese, Mrs. Zhang looked at the sparse little geese in the cage with a little dissatisfaction on her face.
The boss hurriedly explained: "There was a big customer just now, and I bought a lot of goslings to go back, and now there are only a few left."
"Okay, anyway, I didn't buy the goose to eat, one is enough." Mrs. Zhang had to choose among the remaining goslings.
As soon as Mrs. Zhang finished speaking, among the few goslings left in the cage, one of them suddenly jumped up to the old lady in an instant, opening her mouth and calling out "huihuihui" all the time.
Seeing this scene, the old lady took a closer look at the goose that suddenly jumped in front of her, and suddenly felt that the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, "Just this one, it's fate with me."
The boss then praised: "Old lady, you are really insightful, look at this goose, it's the cleanest among my batch of ducklings and goslings. I usually eat deliciously, and I see you being so lively. Designated to take you as the master at first sight."
Although Mrs. Zhang bought a small number of ducks and geese this time, the boss saw that she was easy to talk, and she was an old lady, so she gave her a small cage made by herself, and put these ducklings and geese that she selected into the cage. In the cage, hand it to her, "Old man, take it!"
Mrs. Zhang took over the cage and paid the boss by the way.
After buying the ducklings and goslings, Mrs. Zhang then spent some time strolling around the market, buying some daily necessities for the family, and some vegetables seeds, and it was already ten in the morning. After a little more, I finally left the market contentedly and walked slowly towards the village on foot.
Mrs. Zhang has neat legs and feet, and the road to the village has been replaced by a flat concrete road in recent years, which is very easy to walk around. Therefore, even if the old lady moves slowly, she still arrives at the entrance of the village in about ten minutes and walks again. After a while, he arrived at the door.
After entering the house, before the old lady Zhang put everything down, a big yellow dog and a big orange cat came straight to the old lady.
The big yellow dog swirled around Mrs. Zhang excitedly. If it wasn't for Mrs. Zhang's age, it would have jumped on the other side directly.
Although the big orange cat is not as enthusiastic as the big yellow dog, it has always followed the old lady, rubbing its tail against the old lady's trousers from time to time, looking arrogant.
Seeing the two pets at home, the wrinkles on the old lady's face got deeper with joy. She quickly put the things in her hands on the ground, and reached out to touch the two pets at home.
The first master and the second pet were tired and crooked for a while, until the ducklings and goslings in the cage became louder and louder, and Mrs. Zhang finally came back to her senses, "I went to the market to buy ducklings and goslings, and gave them to both of you. Added a lot of friends!"
After speaking to the big yellow dog and the big orange cat, Mrs. Zhang opened the cage with the ducklings and goslings open and released the ducklings and goslings inside.
As soon as the cage door was opened, the largest and cleanest goose, the only goose, immediately held its head high and took the lead as the eldest brother, and rushed out of the cage to the yard.
Afterwards, several other ducklings followed out of the cage.
Mrs. Zhang closed the cage door, put the empty cage aside, and started to pack up the other things she just bought at the market.
The only goose present, that is, Chen Xing, looked at the surrounding environment. The heart that had been tense at first was finally relieved.
This time, when Chen Xing opened his eyes, he became a little goose that had just hatched. He was also mentioned to sell on the street. When Chen Xing realized his identity in this life, he was very nervous.
The geese are obviously poultry, and the most likely outcome is to serve on the human table.
Chen Xing didn't want to let himself become a human's meal, so these days, he was so autistic, he was like a dumb goose, and he didn't have the noisy and lively energy of the other unconscious chicks, ducks and goose beside him. Son.
Perhaps it is precisely because Chen Xing is very silent, and he is not very lively when he looks at it, so even if he was taken to the street by the boss to sell for several days, he was still not bought by anyone, and he always stayed at the boss's house.
Although he has not been bought for the time being, Chen Xing has been thinking about the way out of his life these days.
It is naturally impossible to be eaten by humans, so Chen Xing wants to escape very much these days.
However, escaping is a difficult task. If the escape is successful, how will Chen Xing survive in the future is still a big problem.
However, in today's market, when Chen Xing heard that Mrs. Zhang said that she didn't buy goose to eat her stomach, he finally jumped out decisively, and finally Mrs. Zhang bought it home.
Today's Chen Xing only hopes that Mrs. Zhang can do what she says. Buying him is for other purposes, not to satisfy appetite.
Mrs. Zhang was arranging the things she bought at the market this morning, and the big yellow dog and the big orange cat immediately focused on these new friends at home.
Chen Xing, who was thinking about something, suddenly had a shadow over his head. When he looked up, he saw a dog that was huge for him now, approaching him, and his wet nose was about to touch him. his head.
wow~
Seeing a big yellow dog from such a perspective is really novel for Chen Xing.
The big yellow dog is very measured, knowing that the ducklings and geese in front of him are the property of the owner and are new members of the family, so he only touched them lightly, and did not move his claws indiscriminately, and he did not open his mouth. .
As the only goose present, Chen Xing was especially favored by the big yellow dog. Almost his entire body was smelled by the big yellow dog, and his head was licked wet by the big yellow dog's tongue.
However, the other big orange cat present had no interest in these new ducklings and geese. After a few glances, he ran to Mrs. Zhang's side and continued to stick to her.
