Chapter 59 My Parrot Has Become a Spirit (1 update)
In the evening, the village in the city is filled with the smell of fireworks.
Students are riding bicycles home from school.
They ride side by side in groups of three or two, passing through the shade of the sturdy sycamore trees, talking about various interesting things in school, their faces filled with youthful vitality.
The workers have also finished a day's work, and buying some salty food, peanuts, and a small bottle of Erguotou on the roadside is the best combination to reward themselves.
The roadside snack bar is doing a good business, and a bowl of beef noodles can fill you up. It is a decades-old shop and the residents around it like it very much.
Sang Yian and Jiang Huaijing drove this section of road for a long time, and this road is too narrow.
The two of them walked into the fireworks of the world. Sang Yian liked this kind of fireworks very much and could always feel the taste of life in it.
Sometimes, just watching the people coming and going, she would feel a sense of joy in her heart.
This was a completely different life from when she was working.
Relaxed and comfortable.
Jiang Huaijing had never seriously observed the lives of these ordinary people. He was usually too busy with his work. Even in the car, he was busy dealing with various documents.
It was a new experience to sit quietly like this without being disturbed by official business, watching people coming and going, watching their joys and sorrows.
"This is life." Sang Yian said with emotion.
Jiang Huaijing's gaze fell on her. Seeing her eyes dancing with joy, her expression softened. "Do you like this kind of life?"
Sang Yian stretched out his index finger and waved it at him. "It's not that I like this kind of life, but this is life."
"I used to go to work as soon as I opened my eyes. In a 24-hour day, I could work 16 hours a day, commuted for 3 hours, and slept for only 4 hours."
"I'm so busy every day. I feel like I was born for work. I don't have any time of my own. I'm just a working machine, let alone a life."
Jiang Huaijing, who only works every day: "..."
He always feels like he has been shot in the chest.
Sang Yian continued to sigh, "I almost died from working overtime before, but fortunately I was rescued in time and I survived. At that time, I was thinking, if I died like this, how unfortunate I would be!"
"I didn't see the scenery I wanted to see, didn't eat the food I wanted to eat, didn't buy the things I wanted to buy, didn't meet the man I wanted to meet, didn't be with the one I love..." "
Then my life, isn't it just studying and working? Then haven't I lived my life in vain?"
Sang Yian thought about his previous life and felt a little scary.
Jiang Huaijing on the side raised his handsome eyebrows slightly, as if thinking about something. He always felt that she was talking about himself. What's wrong?
The two of them wasted ten minutes on the road before they arrived at the door of her small supermarket.
The roller shutter door of the supermarket was wide open. A neighbor ran out in a hurry with a bottle of soy sauce in his hand. He bumped into Sang Yian who had just returned.
"Sangsang, you are so amazing. You can let your pet watch the store when you are not at home. It's amazing!"
Sang Yian smiled, "Our old doorman is very powerful."
Jiang Huaijing was surprised after hearing this, "Pets can watch the store? Are they so smart?"
"Other people's pets can't do it, but my little parrot is very smart!"
Sang Yian was very proud. The supermarket's stock clerk, cleaner, warehouse manager, and now the cashier, the working team of this small supermarket is complete!
The two walked into the store and saw the little parrot standing on the cash register, holding a longan in one paw and chewing it happily.
At this time, someone came over with a bag of toilet paper, and the little parrot scanned it and said, "25 yuan! Scan the code!"
The customer was surprised and immediately turned on her mobile phone and started taking pictures of the little parrot. She picked up a piece of chocolate from the cash register and handed it over.
The little parrot threw the longan it had just eaten into the trash can next to the cashier with a click, and glanced at the chocolate again, "9 pieces! Scan the code!"
The other party deliberately teased the little parrot, "You said how much is how much? How come I don't know you are lying to me?"
The little parrot stared at the other party with its small eyes, and even the crest on its head exploded. It suddenly stretched out one wing and swept the barcode gun at one side.
"Scan it yourself! Scan it yourself!"
The customer was even more surprised. She immediately recorded with one hand and picked up the barcode gun with the other hand. She scanned twice, and the result immediately appeared on the screen, which was exactly 25 and 9.
"Are parrots nowadays too smart? They can understand human language, but they can also remember how much something costs?"
The other party was already somewhat suspicious of life.
When the little parrot heard someone praising it, the anger of suspicion just now disappeared immediately. Instead, it raised its head and strode forward to the cashier with great pride, feeling extremely proud.
"Smart!"
The female customer was so cute that she deliberately scanned 30 yuan to see how the little parrot would react.
Just as she was about to leave with the tissue and chocolate, the little parrot suddenly flew up and grabbed the outer packaging of the toilet paper with its two little claws. "Not enough! Not enough!"
The other party's eyes lit up, "You really know how to count!"
"Give me money! Give me money!"
The little parrot fluttered its wings and grabbed the toilet paper to fly into the store. It didn't use the right strength and pulled the customer to stagger and almost fall.
The female customer didn't want to leave at all. She just wanted to see the little parrot's reaction. Seeing it trying hard to protect the assets of the small supermarket, she wanted to rub its fluffy little head.
"What if I don't give it? Will you hit me?"
The little parrot was angry and loosened its claws. It poked the customer's hand with its sharp beak.
"Ah!"
The female customer subconsciously let go of the hand holding the toilet paper, and the little parrot took the opportunity to fly over, grabbed the outer packaging, flapped its wings, and dragged it into the store.
It happened so quickly that before Sang Yian could step forward to stop it, the back of the female customer's hand was pecked.
"I'm sorry, my old door is more honest. If you don't pay enough, it won't let you take these things away."
Sang Yian tore off a Band-Aid and put it directly on the back of the girl's hand.
"Are you the boss? Did you raise this parrot? It's too smart, isn't it? It seems that it can understand everything I say, it's almost a spirit!"
The girl was very excited.
Sang Yian picked up the little parrot that had already flown to the cashier counter, stretched out a finger to pull up a tuft of green hair on its little head, "Are you so combative? Don't attack people like this in the future, understand?"
The little parrot was unhappy after being taught a lesson. Who was it doing this for?
It turned its head away, not wanting to pay attention to this indiscriminate host.
