"That's not the case. The little chicken is over here." When Chen Dazhuang heard that the little chicken was disliked by Tan Rourou, he was the first to disagree and immediately explained excitedly.
They took Tan Rourou to the other side of the yard.
After looking carefully, Tan Rourou noticed that there was not only one chicken coop in the yard, but also another one on the other side, and that chicken coop looked more beautiful.
Compared to the fierce clucking of the wild pheasants, a soft chirping sound came from the chicken coop.
It was like the chirping of birds on the treetops in the morning, very crisp and not scary at all.
After listening to the sound, Tan Rourou felt relieved and walked over slowly, step by step.
Although she was willing to get closer, she still remained vigilant and followed Lu Yuanbao. If it was another fierce rooster, she would hide as quickly as possible.
However--
“Chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp—”
"Wow--"
Tan Rourou exclaimed when she saw the pale yellow furry chicks.
Chen Dazhuang squatted beside the chicken coop and turned to Tan Rourou and said, "Rourou, look, this is a real chick. Isn't it cute?"
Even the stubborn Tan Rourou couldn't help but nod her head quickly in approval, "Cute! They are really cute!"
The fluffy little feathers look like a ball of sunshine in the sun, and they look warm and soft.
Tan Rourou asked with sparkling eyes, "Can I touch it?"
Lu Yuanbao held up a little chicken with both hands, held it in his palm and handed it to Tan Rourou, "Don't worry, touch it, it's still small, it won't hurt you, and it's very clean."
If Lu Yuanbao hadn't reminded her, Tan Rourou would have forgotten about her mysophobia after seeing the cute pet.
She didn't care at all. How could such a cute little thing be dirty?
Tan Rourou stretched out her fingers and gently touched the chick's feathers. They were just as soft and warm as she had imagined.
"It's really small. It's so small, does it eat?"
"Of course I eat. I eat some food and sometimes I eat some bugs."
"Bugs..." After hearing this, Tan Rourou almost retracted her hand, but the little chicks were so cute. One was very cute, and a group of them were even more adorable.
A group of furry little balls huddled together, squeezed together, and made little chirping sounds.
Tan Rourou played with Lu Yuanbao and Chen Dazhuang for the entire afternoon for the first time.
They let all the chicks out and played games in the yard. The chicks liked to follow people and would follow them wherever they went.
When Tan Rourou came, she was wearing beautiful red leather shoes. The chicken stepped on her several times and pecked her a few times. Unexpectedly, the proud little princess did not get angry. She had so much fun that she completely forgot about it.
Her little face was flushed and sweaty, her little hands kept touching the little chicken, and she couldn't stop laughing.
Chen Dazhuang said, "Rou Rou, since you like chicks so much, let Yuanbao give you a few. Yuanbao is a very nice person. He gave me three chicks, which I can raise in my own yard. They are cute when they are small, and we can eat chicken and they can lay eggs when they grow up."
Tan Rourou frowned when she heard the words "eat chicken", covered the chicken's ears with both hands and said, "We don't want to listen, we don't want to listen. Chen Dazhuang, the chicken is still young and can't bear to hear these words."
Chen Dazhuang smiled awkwardly and scratched his hair.
Lu Yuanbao then asked Tan Rourou, "If you like it, you can take it home. I have a lot of eggs at home, and you can hatch more if you want chicks."
Tan Rourou's eyes showed reluctance, but facing Chen Dazhuang's proposal, she still shook her head firmly.
“I can’t take it home.”
Chen Dazhuang didn't realize the little girl's regret at all, and tilted his head and asked directly, "Why?"
Tan Rourou was not angry this time. She gently stroked the little chicken and said softly, "My mother doesn't like it."
If Fang Xiuli, a young lady from the capital, were to raise a chicken in her yard, she would probably be so angry that she would jump on the spot and then kick the chicken out.
The little chicks without a home are so pitiful, it’s better to let them stay well in Lu Yuanbao’s home.
Lu Yuanbao listened quietly at the side, and seeing Tan Rourou's lingering expression, he said, "Tan Rourou, if you like, you can come to my house after school every day to see the chicks, and then go back."
Tan Rourou looked up in surprise, "Really? Can I come again in the future?"
"Yeah. But the chick grows very fast. After a few days, it will become fat and not so cute anymore." Lu Yuanbao gave Tan Rourou a shot of prevention in a serious tone.
Tan Rourou didn't think too much about it. She just wanted to be happy at the moment. She stroked the chicks and said happily, "We'll talk about the future later. Anyway, they are all cute now."
The three of them played for a while before they heard shouting outside the door.
"Rou Rou, Rou Rou, it's time to go home."
This was after the last "earth-shattering" quarrel. One month later, Fang Xiuli came to Chu Yue's house again. Although the two of them had now made peace and Chu Yue didn't bother with her, and the two of them even worked together to deal with that waste Ye Zhigang, but looking at the yard where she had been once and thinking about what happened at that time, Fang Xiuli still had some post-traumatic stress disorder.
To put it bluntly, it's embarrassing and shameful.
So I didn't go in directly, but just shouted a few times outside the door.
When Tan Rourou heard Fang Xiuli's voice, she did not make a scene about not wanting to leave. Instead, she petted the chick one last time, put it in the group of furry chicks, waved her hand seriously and said, "I'm leaving now. Goodbye. You guys should grow up well~"
"Da Zhuang, Yuan Bao, my mother is here to take me home. I'm leaving now. Bye."
Tan Rourou also said goodbye to Chen Dazhuang and Lu Yuanbao.
She walked over to Fang Xiuli and called out, "Mom."
Fang Xiuli looked down at Tan Rourou's slightly soiled clothes, but didn't pay much attention to it. Instead, she looked at Lu Yuanbao, thought for a moment and said, "You can come to my house to play with Rourou next time. We have a lot of toys at home."
Really...really?
Now it was Lu Yuanbao and Chen Dazhuang who were shocked. This aunt with a bad temper actually took the initiative to invite them to play!
If this were to be made known to others, no one in the entire compound would probably believe that Fang Xiuli would say this.
Even Tan Rourou asked softly on the way, "Mom, can I really let Lu Yuanbao and Chen Dazhuang come to my house?"
Fang Xiuli listened to her daughter's question and began to reflect on herself for the first time. Was her image in the compound really so fierce that even her own daughter didn't believe her?
She nodded and said, "Yes, of course. Mom keeps her word. When you two agree on a time, I'll go buy some cakes and soda for you to treat them."
Tan Rourou listened, her eyes sparkling, and she smiled unconsciously, "Mom, you are so nice~"
She didn't know why, but she felt very happy, and... her mother seemed different from before.
If the mother changes, can she be allowed to raise a chick in the future?
You don't need too many, just one is enough.
Or, she can go and ask her father first. Her father loves her the most and will definitely agree. Her father can also persuade her mother to agree.
The little plan was running fast in the little girl's head.
