"I think it's because you like it yourself." Qieqi said angrily, "You are really an old naughty boy with a childlike heart."
The father laughed heartily, and Yalan also smiled and hugged her father's arm and acted coquettishly, "Mom, buy it, buy it!"
The father and daughter also felt something was strange. After coming back from outside, their daughter seemed to be even more attached to them, and almost never left their side.
But no matter what, their daughter is willing to be so close to her father, so they are too happy to think too much about it.
So, Qieqi smiled and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, buy, buy, buy. How much do you want?"
"It's a rare opportunity to come here, so I might as well buy ten chicks and ducklings to make a perfect couple." Yalan pointed at the cage and said excitedly.
My father-in-law chatted excitedly: "Let's buy a few big chickens and ducks. They will lay eggs after they are raised, and we can kill them and eat them. Why not buy a dozen of each?"
Listening to the father and daughter's nonsensical words, Xiao Lu was dumbfounded. "You two are...exaggerating."
The chicken and duck vendors were so happy after hearing this that they couldn't stop smiling. It was like they had earned a lot of money.
So he greeted her even more enthusiastically, and acted even more enthusiastically than when he met his biological father.
It's really a living dad. He needs to buy thirty or forty chicken and ducklings at one time. This is the first time he has encountered such a big buyer.
A family of three, happily looking at chickens and buying ducks, didn't notice two unusually eye-catching people approaching from the crowd. It wasn't the tall man who caught their eye, but the man with the tall figure was more eye-catching.
The other person walked with his head held high. Although he was carrying a lot of things in his hands, his posture was still steady. His demeanor was completely out of tune with this noisy vegetable market, and was in sharp contrast to the old country woman next to him who was wearing a plaid shirt and a woolen bun on her head.
"Mom, you've been walking around for most of the day. It's about time we go out."
Qin Kaishen accompanied his relatives to the county town to buy things. The vegetable market was crowded and noisy, and the air was filled with the fishy smell of live poultry and aquatic products. He frowned and became a little impatient after shopping.
"Okay, okay, don't worry, son. Come with me to look at the chickens and ducks. Let's buy a few to raise. I've been thinking about raising more chickens and ducks for a long time. Mid-Autumn Festival is almost here, and your aunt and uncle's relatives are coming to visit. I'm afraid there won't be enough food."
Qin Yu said as she made arrangements, "Also, while you're at home resting for a while, Mom plans to let you have chicken every day. My son is already quite successful, so a chicken a day is nothing. When the time comes, even if you want to go, you can bring a few with you so that the other good colleagues can have a taste."
Qin Li became happier as he spoke, not noticing his son's increasingly unhappy expression. He treated the chickens like treasures and was not afraid of being laughed at if he told others about it.
"Mom, you have already bought a lot of things. I didn't bring much money with me. Now I only have enough money for the bus ride there." Qin Kaishen said with a grim expression.
His monthly salary was only about ten yuan. His father was old and could only do simple work back home, so he had to mail money and supplies home every time he got his paycheck. Fortunately, his company provided a subsidy, and the cafeteria was free, otherwise he would have had nothing left. But even with his frequent payments, his family was not well off.
"Oh, then... let's take a look first, and then come back to buy it when we have money."
Qin Li was still in high spirits. She thought it was a rare occasion for her son to come home, so she asked him to take her to the county town. Even if they didn't buy anything, it would be nice to just walk around.
Of course, the first place she visited was the vegetable market here. Many of the things there were not available in the countryside.
What's more, with his son accompanying him, the curious looks, admiration and envy he received along the way made Qin Li even more proud and happy.
No matter how hard he tried to persuade her, she had her son out to go out with her, wasn't it just for these reasons?
Now she thought, what difference does it make if she doesn't have a jade bracelet to show off? What else can make her prouder than her promising baby son?
Just as he was thinking this, Qin Li discovered with his sharp eyes that this was really what he thought would come true.
In front of a stall selling live poultry, there was a middle-aged couple in their late fifties. The young girl following them looked clearly like... Qi Yalan.
Qin Qi rubbed his eyes and tugged at his son's sleeve, "Kai, look in front of you, isn't that Qie Qie Zhi?"
Qin Kaishen was getting impatient, and when he heard what his mother said, he couldn't help but pause for a moment. He followed the direction of his mother's finger and saw the young girl in the skirt turning around and happily saying something to the middle-aged woman holding her.
Her eyebrows were curved, and her smile was as charming as a ridge. Qin Kaishen couldn't help but stare at her in amazement. It took him a long while to react. He subconsciously said, "It seems to be true."
Qin Li clapped her hands and confirmed, "I told you, it's her. Hey Kai, Mom has told Xiao Xiaozhi several times before about the idea of buying chickens and ducks. Do you think they might... buy them for our family?"
Qin Li became excited as he spoke.
Qin Kaishen did not respond, but walked over with his relatives.
Over there, Yalan had already selected the chicks. Her mother didn't want her to buy too many, so she persuaded her mother and finally made her agree, and they decided on a compromise.
Buy ten chicks and ducklings each, and ten large chickens and ducks each. The vendor was so happy that he made a cage for them and put ten chicks in it first.
Qin Li's eyes widened. Why buy so many? She looked at her son excitedly and said with certainty, "This is definitely bought to make amends for our family's sin. Otherwise, they live in the city and have nowhere to raise them."
