Chapter 491 It almost found out



Ouch!

On the way back, Little Green couldn't escape the fate of getting a spanking.

Its howls echoed through the mountains; to the uninitiated, it might have sounded like someone was slaughtering a pig.

Little Green: "Ah...the bird's going to be killed!!"

Luo Shimiao simply pinched its mouth: "Act, then just act." She didn't hit it hard at all.

......

"Sister Yun, open the door, we're back," Luo Shimiao called out through the door.

Hearing her voice, Hao Yun got out of bed and went to open the door.

"You're finally back. It was so boring being alone in the dorm." If it weren't for her period suddenly starting, she would have liked to go with her.

Luo Shimiao stepped over the threshold and raised an eyebrow at her: "I'm going to take a shower first, then we can be all lovey-dovey later." She took the little green hair ornament off her head and placed it on her shoulder: "Little Green will keep you company for a while."

While Luo Shimiao was taking a bath, Xiao Lü told Hao Yun the story of what had happened in the cabin, embellishing the details.

"You mean Miaomiao tore off half of Master Huikong's roof?" Hao Yun leaned against the headboard, her fair hand covering her mouth, her eyes filled with shock.

Why would she do that?

“A baby fell onto the roof, and when she couldn’t find it, she got angry and ripped the roof off.”

Hao Yun sensed something was wrong. Given Miao Miao's personality, she wouldn't be this agitated if she couldn't find something. He looked down thoughtfully at the parrot perched on his stomach.

"What does that treasure look like?"

"Hmm, long..."

She interrupted Little Green: "Is its body green, and it has a tuft of yellow feathers on its head?"

Little Green buried its head in its wings: "Well, I guess so."

Oh dear, Sister Hao Yun saw through me.

Half an hour later.

Luo Shimiao came out wearing a light yellow cotton pajama set, with a towel on her head and freshly washed clothes hanging from her arm.

"Since coming here, I have to hand wash my clothes every day, which is really annoying." She took the clothes out of the closet and put them on the balcony to hang them up to dry.

Hao Yun was teaching Xiao Lü to read when he heard this, and said, "I'll help you wash tomorrow."

Luo Shimiao's voice came from outside: "Thank you, Sister Yun. It's not too much trouble. It'll be done in a few rubs."

Little Green pointed to a word in the book with its paw: "Sister Hao Yun, how do you pronounce this word?"

She looked down and said, "This is Nianxiang."

"What about this one?"

"This is the character '真' (zhen)."

Xiao Lü suddenly realized: "So, if we say 'it smells so good,' then what's the first one?"

"What first?" Hao Yun couldn't understand what it was saying.

“There are three characters engraved on the bottom of the bowl I eat from at home. Now I know the last two, but I don’t know how to pronounce the last one, though I remember it.”

Hao Yun stroked its head, his eyes gentle as water: "Tell me the strokes, and I'll write them down and teach you."

"Okay, okay!" Little Green jumped up happily: "The first word has a rectangular frame above its head, and a rope is floating on the left side of the frame."

Hao Yun's forehead creased with three question marks. Was this really a word? He got out of bed, walked to a chair, sat down, grabbed the pen Luo Shimiao had brought back, and drew it in the blank space of the book as Xiao Lü had instructed.

"is that so?"

"No, no," Little Green pointed at the frame with its wing, "It's connected to the rope."

A thought struck her: "I know!" She quickly wrote down the character for "corpse": "Is this what it looks like?"

"Yes, yes, and then there's another one below, a cross with four legs."

Hao Yun was embarrassed. Birds seem to think differently from humans; who would describe words like that?

However, with the "corpse" radical, the range narrowed down, and considering the two characters that followed, she had already guessed what they were.

He picked up a pen and wrote the character "米" (rice) under the character "尸" (corpse), combining the top and bottom to form the character "屎" (shit).

"Take a look and see if this is the correct character?"

Little Green's eyes sparkled as she looked at Hao Yun with admiration: "Sister, you're amazing! This is what it looks like, how do you pronounce it?"

"read......"

"What are you guys playing?" Luo Shimiao walked in, drying her hair.

Hao Yun explained, "Your bird said there were three characters under the bowl, and it learned the last two from a book. So I wrote down the first character based on its description, and I was about to teach it when you came in and interrupted me."

Her right hand, holding the towel, froze. She was relieved that she had arrived in time. Otherwise, if Xiao Lü had known, she wouldn't have wanted to use that bowl to eat.

That means we'll have to buy a new set of bowls, and she'll definitely pick the most expensive one. Thinking of this, she quickly walked behind Hao Yun and placed her left hand on her shoulder.

He said, "Little Green, if you want to know, just ask me. That character is pronounced 'fan' (rice), and when put together, it means 'Fan Zhen Xiang' (rice is really delicious)."

Hao Yun opened her eyes wide and turned to look at her. "Are you sure?"

Luo Shimiao smiled and nodded, then gently squeezed her shoulder with his left hand.

"Sister Yun, is my pronunciation standard?"

"Uh... standard, very standard!" She finally understood what was going on.

I'm sorry, Little Green, it's okay that it wasn't real poop. Sometimes knowing the truth isn't a good thing. I was doing it all for its own good, that's right.

Xiao Lü: "So that's what it means. No wonder it always tastes so delicious when I eat."

Little Greenie, you've been fooled by the idea that you should read poop instead of food!

[Little Green was just a hair's breadth away from knowing the truth; it seems even fate is on Luo Shimiao's side.]

[Poor parrot! Its food bowl was maliciously carved with the words "poop smells so good!" And it was even tricked by its owner, who insisted on changing "poop smells so good" to "food smells so good!"]

[Wait a minute, you're saying it's pitiful? Didn't you see the fist-sized gold bowl on the table? Who eats their parrot from a pure gold bowl?!]

[If this is considered tragic, I'd be willing to switch souls with Little Green and let me suffer its pain!]

Luo Shimiao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xiao Lü didn't suspect anything, successfully saving a sum of money.

The sky outside the window had completely darkened.

Before the broadcast ended, Luo Shimiao had been copying the Heart Sutra, spending nearly two hours completing half of the task. She rolled up the remaining half, took her pen, and went to find Luo Ruilin.

She stopped at the door, turned around and said, "Sister Yun, I have to go out for a bit, I might be back a little late, don't worry about me." She wanted to let her know so she wouldn't worry.

Hao Yun: "Okay."

Little Green followed her happily, and after going down the stairs, it burrowed into Luo Shimiao's chest.

Luo Shimiao shook her head slightly. He followed her everywhere she went, even more clingy than super glue.
