Chapter 131 Running Errands
She first picked out a few big, yellow persimmons and placed them in the living room. As for the remaining persimmons, Qiao Xi put them into the warehouse and waited for her free time to ask the brown-headed vulture to help her peel them before drying them in the sun.
Back at the warehouse, all the golden macaques were present, each doing their own job and concentrating on the task at hand.
Josh didn't want to disturb them, so he took a large bag of "onions" from the warehouse, went outside to remove the roots and the soil on the surface, and then rinsed them slowly.
Ever since eating the ball with a strange taste yesterday, the burrowing rat has developed a little interest in this stimulating food.
So when they saw Josh carrying out another big bag of onions, the little ones stood in front of Josh one by one, pretending to help him.
"Okay, okay, I know you want to eat, one for each rat, and don't eat more." Josh looked at the five of them seriously and clearly forbade them to eat more.
After feeding them those "onions" yesterday, Qiao Xi ignored them. When she came back in the evening, she turned around inadvertently and saw five big rats looking at her with red, tearful eyes. She was almost scared to death.
Fortunately, they are much better today. Josh didn't even want to feed them anymore.
But looking at the five fat rats, they helped her wash the "onions" and deal with the garbage.
Josh was speechless. How could this "onion" be addictive?
I can only agree to it, one mouse for each.
However, with the help of the burrowing rats, the onions were processed quickly and well this time.
Soon, a large bag of "onions" had been washed. Josh put them into a clean large basket and waited for the brown-headed vulture to pass by and then let it chop them.
"Coo coo" Qiao Xi looked up and saw the white-feathered egret that he hadn't seen for a long time.
After not seeing it for a few months, it was still as beautiful as ever. However, when Josh looked back, he saw a shy little egret hiding behind it.
"It's been a long time since I last saw White-feathered Heron. It looks like your love journey is going very smoothly!" Qiao Xi teased. A few months ago, it said it was going to look for love, and then it disappeared.
"Coo." Of course, there is no bird that I, the white-feathered egret, can't catch!
Josh covered his mouth and laughed secretly, looking much more arrogant than before.
"Coo!" The big black bird is not here. Is there anything you can help with?
"Of course!" Josh's eyes lit up. "Can you help me cut these "onions" into small pieces? Just chop them as finely as possible."
"Gugu!" Of course, leave it to me! However, the White-feathered Egret never does business at a loss, huh?
"I know, I know. We are so familiar with each other, so of course I won't let you down." Josh waved his hand to reassure it.
This big white bird has been away for half a year, how come it has become more cunning?
Seeing that Josh agreed, the white-feathered egret flew in front of "Onion" and used its skills.
As soon as it flew away, the petite and lovely Miss Egret was exposed behind it.
Perhaps because it rarely comes into contact with humans, it cooed twice at the white-feathered egret with some fear.
"Coo!" Don't be afraid, this is our future neighbor, Miss Joshi. She is a wealthy and generous farmer. Of course, the most important thing is that she is gentle and kind, a good human being we can trust.
I have to say that Baiyu Lu's flattery was very effective, and the crooked corner of Josh's mouth was enough to explain it all.
"Oh, it's not that great. Nice to meet you, little heron."
"Coo~Coo" Hello, I am a little pond heron. I will live here with the white-feathered egret in the next few days. I am also very happy to meet you human.
The little pond heron was a little shy, but with the encouragement of the white-feathered egret, he bravely introduced himself to Josh.
After saying that, it bravely flew over and started cutting "onions" with the white-feathered egret.
"Gugu?" What is the purpose of chopping up these mischievous fruits? Xiaochi Lu asked curiously.
"Little Pond Heron, do you know this fruit? It is an important ingredient for me to make agricultural processed products." Josh replied.
"Gugu~" Do you need it? I know there are a lot of these things growing somewhere. The little pond heron got a little bolder and jumped in front of Qiao Xi and said.
"Really?" Josh asked in surprise.
All the stock of the stall owner selling "onions" was bought by Josh. He said that if there was more later, he would come back to get it. He estimated that the quantity would not be large. If the farm could find the place of production, it would be one less trouble.
"Little Pond Heron, can you tell me where it is? I really need these mischief fruits. They are very important to the farm."
"Coo~Coo~Coo" Of course you can, it's just on the hillside over the Weiguang Lake, not too far away.
Wait, the little pond heron looked at Qiao Xi and said, "Coo~" Without wings, it would still be a bit far away.
Is it far? Qiao Xi was troubled for a moment, but suddenly remembered that there was a brown-headed vulture, which could take her there.
"It's okay. I'll try my best to overcome this difficulty. Can you tell me the exact location?"
"Coo~" On the hillside northwest of the Glimmering Lake, it spread its wings and pointed in the direction. There was a thick patch of mischief fruit growing there. The smell could be smelled from a long distance, and there were more of them now.
"Okay, thank you Xiaochi Lu, you told me great news!" Qiao Xi was very happy and thanked Xiaochi Lu very sincerely.
"Gugu~" It's just a small matter, it's okay! It was the first time for the little pond heron to face such an enthusiastic human being, and she felt a little embarrassed.
"Gugu!" Qiao Xi, it's all chopped up! The white-feathered egret saw the shyness of the little pond heron and flew over to comfort the little pond heron.
While the two of them were talking just now, White Heron had already chopped the onions.
"Wow, you are worthy of being a white-feathered heron. You cut it so quickly. Thank you!"
Seeing them about to fly away, Josh quickly instructed: "Don't forget to come and try the farm's new products later. You haven't tried them yet."
"Coo!" Of course, of course, I, the white-feathered egret, am not a forgetful bird.
The big white bird flapped its wings and flew away with the little pond heron. Qiao Xi laughed, knowing that it would not let him suffer any loss.
When Qiao Xi put away the chopped "onions" and went in, the macaques had already scooped out the first pot of cooked bitter chestnut beans.
When Qiao Xi saw the pot, he slapped his head and wondered why he had forgotten about buying the pot again.
Fortunately, there are no orders for taro bread today, so we are only making baked beans in tomato sauce, which is enough. If anyone wants to buy taro bread, it will be troublesome again.
Hey, can I send it to a carrier pigeon? Today's newspaper hasn't been delivered yet. Qiao Xi opened the communicator and wondered whether to send a message to the carrier pigeon chain. If the wheat noodles could be brought before, the big pot should be able to be brought too.
While I was still thinking, a newspaper fell down. Well, the carrier pigeon has arrived, so what other message is there to send?
I picked up the newspaper and took a quick glance at today's news.
The four big words "Rookie Running Errands" come into view!
