Chapter 26
Ye Guosheng asked in surprise: "The shell is broken?"
Ye Chi nodded excitedly: "Yes."
Ye Guosheng hurried to Yechi, opened the curtain and saw three hens lying in the coop. One of the hens had two eggs behind the buttocks. It can be seen that Ye Chi pointed with his little finger and asked excitedly: "Grandpa, is that yellow little yellow chicken?"
Ye Guosheng smiled and said, "It's a little yellow chicken!"
"The little yellow chicken is still a small group."
"Well, wait, it's not a small group."
The huddled little yellow chicken slowly stretched its wet little body, stretched out its head to push open the eggshell next to it, and groped and squirmed outwards, small and weak, extremely cute, Ye Chi's eyes excited It glowed and said: "Grandpa, I can see that it is a little yellow chicken."
Ye Guosheng replied: "Yes."
"It's so small."
"Eggs are not big."
"Small ones look good."
Ye Chi has eyes that are good at discovering beauty, and he always says something that makes people feel comfortable. Ye Guosheng couldn't help but smile.
Ye Chi couldn't help squatting down in front of the little yellow chicken to take a closer look. After watching, he suddenly stood up and said, "Grandpa, I'll go find Brother Fang!"
"Why do you want Brother Fang?" Ye Guosheng asked suspiciously.
"I said the chicken broke the shell, I want to watch it with him. You have to keep your word."
"Okay, then you go."
Ye Chi immediately ran away, ran to Mrs. Lu's house, and dragged Lu Mingfang to the chicken coop. The two children watched the two little yellow chickens crawling out of the egg shells, speechless in amazement, eyes blinking. It's wonderful to stare at without blinking.
Under Ye Guosheng's explanation, the two children knew that the chick broke its shell by itself, came out of its shell, stood up by itself, and then became a strong chick. This is called relying on oneself.
Only by relying on yourself can you have a better self.
After the two children understood, they continued to look at the two little yellow chickens until the two little yellow chickens stood up. Then they followed Ye Guosheng to make a cardboard box for the little yellow chickens, a food box for feeding the little yellow chickens and cooked rice, and then carefully put the little yellow chicken into the cardboard box together.
The two children lay on their stomachs in the cardboard box, looking at it like something new, and even ate a little indiscriminately.
In order to be able to watch the little yellow chickens for a while, Lu Mingfang followed Yechi to Jingshan to plant vegetables. While planting vegetables, the two of them were still thinking about the little yellow chickens. When they returned home, two more little yellow chickens came out of their shells. At that time, a total of six little yellow chickens came out.
At this time, old man Lu came to find Lu Mingfang, and Lu Mingfang reluctantly followed him home, while Ye Chi continued to look at the little yellow chicken.
Ye Guosheng was afraid that the little yellow chicken would freeze to death, so he covered the cardboard box with a thin quilt and put it on the head of the bed. At night, Ye Guosheng would lie on the bed, but Ye Chi finally couldn't help but climbed out of bed, and carefully lifted the quilt , took a look at the six little yellow chickens, and then got into the bed again.
Ye Guosheng asked: "Yechi, are they okay? What are they doing?"
Ye Chi turned sideways and said in a low voice, "They're lying down to sleep, they look so pretty!"
"Where does it look good?"
"A fluffy ball, super cute." When Ye Chi said this, there was a cute smile on the corner of Ye Chi's mouth, much cuter than the little yellow chicken.
"The fluffy ones are cute?" Ye Guosheng asked with a smile.
"Yes."
Ye Chi was lying on Ye Guosheng's body, his eyes were bright, his heart was full of little yellow chickens, he completely forgot what happened to Ye Hongwei during the day, and he didn't feel sad anymore, Ye Guosheng felt relieved and tucked Ye Chi in the quilt .
Ye Chi said, "Thank you, Grandpa."
Ye Guosheng smiled and said, "You're welcome."
Ye Chi laughed out loud.
Ye Guosheng asked: "Little guy, what are you laughing at?"
Ye Chi said: "I'm happy."
Ye Guosheng asked: "Tell grandpa, why are you happy?"
"Because the chickens in our family have broken their shells, and many eggs will break their shells in the future. There will be many, many chickens, and then many, many eggs will be laid. We can earn a lot of money."
"Are you so happy to make money?"
Ye Chi nodded very seriously: "Well, because I have money, grandpa doesn't have to work so hard."
Ye Guosheng smiled without saying a word.
"Grandpa." Ye Chi continued: "From tomorrow onwards, I will raise chickens and sell them to others!"
Ye Guosheng said, "Okay."
"I want to raise it with Brother Fang, who also likes chickens."
"it is good."
"Grandpa, I will continue to grow vegetables. I am so happy to grow vegetables."
"sure."
"I can do anything." Ye Chi expressed his thoughts very naturally in front of Ye Guosheng: "I'm amazing!"
Ye Guosheng said with a smile: "That's right, but Ye Chi has to study hard to become a pillar of the country in the future."
"I will learn. I have learned pinyin very well. I can read all the characters with pinyin. I am such a good kid!"
"Really? Awesome kid, how about you read a short story to grandpa?" Ye Guosheng never paid attention to children's toys and books before, but now he does. When he went to the market to buy meat in the morning, he saw a street stall There was a seller of second-hand books for three yuan a piece, so he sold a children's storybook and stuffed it under the pillow.
At this moment, Ye Guosheng took out his book, put on his reading glasses, and said again: "Will Ye Chi read a short story to Grandpa?"
"Okay!" Ye Chi replied crisply, got into Ye Guosheng's bed, lay in Ye Guosheng's arms, leaned on the big pillow together, and under the dim light, Ye Chi pointed to the words and began to write to Ye Guosheng. Read: "c—ong—cong, q—i—an—before, y—ou—yes, once upon a time there was a z—u—o—a hill, and there was an m—i—ao—temple on the hill, and there was a -"
Ye Chi just read it with pinyin to Ye Guosheng, and Ye Guosheng listened very carefully, even the cows, dogs and chickens in the room listened quietly, until Ye Chi's upper and lower eyelids fought, he still Reading "Xiao Niu said, Xiao Niu said, said——", Ye Guosheng took the book with a smile, put Ye Chi away, turned off the light, and then lay down on his body.
He didn't fall asleep right away, and as he got older, he slept less, especially when he was thinking about Ye Hongwei. , he still felt a little chilly in his heart.
However, not long after being sad, he heard a milky raving "Grandpa, Grandpa" from beside him. Ye Guosheng's heart, which was still a little cold just now, warmed up. He turned to Ye Chi and touched Ye Chi's small face. , I don't know if it was affected by Ye Chi's good sleep, and after a while, he also fell into sleep.
The next morning, the grandfather and grandson went to bed together to watch the little yellow chickens. The six little yellow chickens were alive and well. The two were relieved. After a casual breakfast, Ye Chi and Ye Guosheng were going to sell vegetables in the market.
To prevent the little yellow chicken from having an accident, Ye Chi held Dahei's black head and said, "Dahei!"
Big black eyes stared at Ye Chi.
Ye Chi said: "Grandpa and I are going to sell vegetables, you are here watching the big yellow chicken, nothing can happen, you know?"
There was a big black bark.
Ye Chi didn't know if Dahei understood, but he followed Ye Guosheng out of the hospital, Dahei immediately followed up wagging his tail, Ye Chi stomped his little feet and said, "I've made an agreement with you, let you look at the little yellow chicken." , why are you following me again, go back! Go back and see the little yellow chicken! If something happens to the little yellow chicken, I won’t play with you anymore!”
Dahei lay on the ground reluctantly, looking pitiful.
Ye Chi stomped his little feet again: "Go back! If you go outside, other dogs will bite you. You can't even bite, and you will get hurt. Go back!"
With a "woo", Dahei reluctantly turned around and entered the yard.
Ye Guosheng locked the courtyard door.
Ye Chi followed Ye Guosheng to the market. Except for a few bamboo shoots, Ye Guosheng carried small green vegetables, spinach, garlic sprouts and coriander in his shoulder pole this time. He and Ye Chi are now well-known in the market, especially Ye Chi. Those who often go to the market to buy vegetables know Ye Chi.
Every time Ye Chi followed Ye Guosheng to the market, the vegetables sold quickly, and it was the same today. Ye Chi and Ye Guosheng closed the stall early, wearing a cotton cap and smilingly said: "Ye Chi, are you going home again?"
Ye Chi said: "Yes."
"What are you doing back home so early?" The man in the cotton cap is the same as Ye Chi Ye Guosheng. He sets up a stall to sell vegetables on time every day, and chats with each other every day. Everyone is familiar with him. The more familiar he is, the more he feels that Ye Chi is a kid. Cute, he can't help but want to chat with Ye Chi a little more, otherwise it would be like eating a bad meal.
Ye Chi is also willing to chat with others, saying: "I'll go home and raise chickens!"
"Do you still raise chickens?"
"Yeah." Ye Chi nodded proudly and said: "My hen hatched it. When my little yellow chicken grows up a bit, grandpa and I have no food to sell, so we will sell the little yellow chicken, Uncle Cotton Hat, Do you want to buy a little yellow chicken? The little yellow chicken is super cute."
The man in the cotton cap laughed loudly, and said to Ye Guosheng, "Uncle Ye, your little grandson is really good at doing business!"
Ye Guosheng felt quite embarrassed, and before he could explain, the man in the cotton cap smiled and touched Ye Chi's head, and said, "Okay, when your little yellow chicken grows up, sell two to uncle cotton cap, okay?"
"Okay!" Ye Chi nodded happily.
Ye Guosheng quickly stopped and said, "Don't, don't, don't listen to children talking nonsense."
Wearing a cotton cap, he said, "I'm not talking nonsense. I'm serious. I just need to buy two chicks to feed my family. Buying someone's is not buying, don't you think?"
"But--"
"I just bought yours." Wearing a cotton hat interrupted Ye Guosheng, saying, "I believe Uncle Ye's chickens are definitely healthier than other chickens!"
In this way, two of the six little yellow chickens that were hatched were sold. Ye Guosheng looked at Ye Chi with a helpless expression on his face. Ye Chi ran over happily, took Ye Guosheng's hand, and said to the man in the cotton cap Goodbye, when I got home, three little yellow chickens in the family broke their shells, and every day after that, little yellow chickens broke their shells.
Yechi and Ye Guosheng were very happy. At the same time, they felt that there was nothing to sell the vegetables on the mountain and down the mountain. There is a small chicken coop around the small yard, and cardboard is spread on the ground, specially for the little yellow chickens.
After the small chicken coop was finished, Ye Chi said, "Grandpa, this can hold a lot of little yellow chickens!"
Ye Guosheng checked the firmness of the chicken coop: "This chicken coop is built to house a lot of little yellow chickens. It's too crowded in a cardboard box, and it's easy to get sick."
"Then I'll go find Brother Fang and let's play together." Lu Mingfang is Ye Chi's best friend, and when Ye Chi encounters interesting things, he will always think of Lu Mingfang immediately.
"Aren't Brother Fang at home?" Ye Guosheng suddenly remembered that Lu Mingfang was going to the city for a psychological checkup today: "He seems to have gone to the hospital for a checkup."
Ye Chi patted his head with his little hand and said, "That's right! Brother Fang is going to the hospital! Then let's release him. When Brother Fang comes back, Brother Fang and I will feed the chickens together."
"Okay."
"I'm going to move the cardboard boxes."
Ye Chi actively hugged into the room, and together with Ye Guosheng, they moved cardboard boxes out of the room one after another, carefully put one after another little yellow chickens into the spacious chicken coop, sprinkled with wheat The cooked rice grains of bran, the little yellow chickens immediately cheered up, bright yellow, doubled the excitement.
Ye Chi Ye Guosheng was watching in front of the open-top chicken coop, laughing, and suddenly heard a woman's cry from the courtyard door.
"dad!"
Ye Chi and Ye Guosheng looked at the entrance of the courtyard at the same time.
Before Ye Chi had time to ask, Ye Guosheng had already responded happily, and then trotted to open the door.
"dad!"
"Hey, here we come."
Ye Guosheng trotted to open the door.
Ye Chi followed trot to the gate of the courtyard, and then saw a woman carrying various gifts, the woman had black curly hair, wearing a beige coat, she looked like Ye Guosheng, her cheekbones were a bit high, but she was pretty, Ye Chi Then I remembered the woman I saw lying on the crack of the door on the first day I came here.
Is it aunt?
Ye Chi didn't dare to go up and shout, and looked straight at Ye Guosheng, who said, "Fengxia, why are you here? Aren't you going to work?"
Ye Fengxia said: "I've been off for the last two days, so I came to see you."
"Come here, and bring so many things, what a waste."
"How can you say it's a waste." Ye Fengxia smiled and said to her back: "Lingling, come in quickly, grandpa is here, call grandpa quickly."
Then a little girl with shofar braids walked in holding a bunch of candied haws that was almost eaten up, and called weakly: "Grandpa."
Ye Guosheng rolled his eyes with a smile: "Lingling, I'm here to see grandpa."
"Yeah." Lingling was a little timid, she hid behind Ye Fengxia after she finished speaking, and secretly looked at Ye Guosheng.
Ye Fengxia smiled and said, "It's your grandfather, what are you afraid of?"
Ye Guosheng took the gift from Ye Fengxia's hand with a smile, and greeted Ye Fengxia and Lingling into the yard. As soon as the three of them entered the yard, they saw Yechi holding a handful of rice grains in his little hand.
Ye Fengxia was startled.
Lingling also looked at Yechi.
Ye Chi called out proactively, "Hello, Auntie."
Ye Fengxia was slightly stunned, looked at Ye Guosheng and asked, "Dad, does he know me?"
"He saw you last time." Ye Guosheng said proudly, "I will remember it once I saw you. This kid is smart."
Ye Fengxia ignored Ye Chi and asked, "Dad, have you had lunch yet?"
Ye Guosheng said, "Not yet."
"I'll make it for you later."
"I'll cook for you." Ye Guosheng said, "How can I let you cook when you're here?"
"Then I'll do it with you."
"Okay." Ye Guosheng has three children, two sons and one daughter. If you want to say that you are a little relieved, this is the daughter. The daughter has him in her heart. She calls to greet him from time to time and visits him regularly. He is really satisfied. , happily pouring water, milk, and candy for the daughter and granddaughter.
As a result, the daughter said: "Dad, brother called me."
Ye Guosheng immediately put down his face and said, "Why is he calling you?"
"It's nothing." Ye Fengxia said in a low voice, "Just tell me about your recent situation, that you raised the second brother's son, and that you asked him to pay back 1 yuan."
"And then?" Ye Guosheng put down the candy angrily: "What else?"
"I didn't say anything, just said that you dig bamboo shoots on the mountain every day, sell vegetables, grow vegetables, and think that you should sit at home honestly at such an age, if you make such a fuss—"
"When you're old, should you just sit at home and eat and wait to die!" Ye Guosheng said directly to Ye Fengxia, "Then what's the point of living?"
The always gentle father suddenly lost his temper, Ye Fengxia immediately stopped talking, knowing that her father was really angry.
Her father, Ye Guo, sat in front of the stove vigorously and smoked the dry pipe again. Ye Fengxia silently washed and cut vegetables. When she went out to wash the rice, she saw the Yechi in the yard. Chi fell asleep on the bed, she didn't see Ye Chi's face clearly, but when she saw it this time, she found that the child was really handsome, with a spirit all over his body, much prettier than his father.
What a handsome face!
But what's the use of good looks, no matter what my mother doesn't want, my father has become a burden in the eyes of others. Ye Fengxia sighed and was washing rice in front of the faucet. Ye Chi suddenly ran over, put a millet bucket under the faucet, and said: " Auntie, don’t pour the rice washing water, you can pour it on the vegetables in the backyard in the afternoon, and the vegetables will grow better.”
Ye Fengxia was very surprised, she didn't expect this at all, when she looked at Ye Chi again, Ye Chi ran over to play, she lowered her head and continued to wash the rice, returned to the kitchen again, and suddenly found her father who was smoking, and felt that he was in good spirits The head is much better than last time, could it be Ye Chi's credit?How is it possible, what can a six or seven-year-old child understand?
Like her son is nine years old, he still only knows how to eat, drink and play. Ye Fengxia glanced at Ye Guosheng again, and continued to cook silently. After the dishes were cooked, Ye Fengxia walked out of the kitchen to call Lingling to eat, and saw the always timid Lingling , was squatting with Ye Chi in the yard petting a little black dog.
The little black dog lay on the ground with its eyes closed, and let the two children stroke it very docilely. Ye Chi also asked with a smile: "Lingling, are you not afraid?"
Lingling gave a small "um" in her voice.
Ye Chi said in a very gentle voice: "This is my dog. It's called Dahei. It's very smart and obedient. It won't bite you."
"Big black."
"Yes." Ye Chi touched Dahei's head, imitating the way adults communicate with children, and asked, "Lingling, how old are you?"
"I'm five years old." Lingling's voice was tender.
"I'm going to be seven soon, I'm older than you, you have to call me brother, I'll call you sister."
"Well, brother." Lingling immediately called her brother.
"Hey!" Ye Chi was very happy. Apart from Lu Mingfang, he had another friend. When he lowered his head, he saw Lingling's shoelace untied, and said, "Lingling, don't move, brother will tie your shoelace for you." .”
Lingling immediately said: "Okay."
Ye Chi clumsily tied Lingling's shoelaces. When Lingling got up and took two steps, the shoelaces were untied again. Ye Chi wanted to tie Lingling's shoes. Ye Fengxia said, "Ye Chi, let me tie them."
Ye Chi looked at Ye Fengxia upon hearing the sound, and called, "Auntie."
"Ah."
Ye Fengxia nodded and smiled at Ye Chi. Ye Chi could tell the friendliness in Ye Fengxia's eyes. I don't get carried away, and I follow my grandfather's teachings when eating, and I am very particular about eating.
Ye Fengxia looked at Ye Chi, then at Ye Guosheng, and asked Ye Guosheng about growing vegetables. After eating, Ye Chi helped put away the bowl, saw Ye Guosheng took out the pipe again, and immediately said fiercely: "Grandpa, stop smoking!"
Ye Guosheng paused and said, "I'll just suck it up."
Ye Chi said: "You have smoked a bit today."
"No." Ye Guosheng felt that Ye Chi must not have known that he had smoked in the kitchen.
"You liar, I could smell the smoke on you just now!"
Ye Guosheng put away the cigarette pouch with a smile, and said, "Okay, grandpa lied, grandpa was wrong, grandpa apologized to Ye Chi, now grandpa put away the cigarette pouch, okay?"
"En." Ye Chi nodded.
Ye Guosheng really stopped smoking.
Ye Fengxia looked at Ye Guosheng in surprise, and then at Ye Chi, feeling very puzzled. As a daughter, she often persuaded the old man to drink less, and the old man promised well, but he still did it. Unexpectedly, the old man I listened to this little guy.
After the little guy Ye Chi finished speaking, he fed Dahei with rice. Lingling looked at the novelty, squatted next to Yechi and said, "Brother, Dahei is eating."
Ye Chi said: "Yes."
"When it is full, let's play together."
"Do you want to play with me and Dahei?" Ye Chi asked happily.
"Ah."
"Then I'll take you to play with my good friend, okay?"
"Okay." Lingling nodded, her cute shofar braids trembled slightly, she smiled lightly, showing a mouthful of small teeth, then turned her head and said to Ye Fengxia: "Mom, I want to play with my brother."
Ye Fengxia nodded in a daze.
After Dahei finished eating, Ye Chi put Dahei's food bowl in the corner of the wall: "Grandpa, Brother Fang should be back, Lingling and I will go find Brother Fang to play."
"Okay." Ye Guosheng said, "Take care of my sister."
"I know."
Ye Chi took Lingling's little hand and said, "Sister Lingling, let's go play with Brother Fang."
Lingling's shofar braid trembled twice.
"But Dahei can't go?"
"Why duck?" Lingling asked with her head tilted.
"Dahei is afraid to let the big flowered dog of brother's family go, it dare not go."
"Then what to do duck?"
"Let's go find Brother Fang first, and then play with Brother Fang together with Dahei, shall we?"
"it is good."
"My Brother Fang is amazing!" Ye Chi introduced Lu Mingfang to Lingling while walking. In Ye Chi's heart, his only friend Lu Mingfang is the most powerful friend in the world, and he doesn't accept rebuttals!
Lingling asked: "Why is Brother Fang so powerful?"
"Brother Fang is super good-looking, super smart, and super powerful."
"Is it better than your brother?"
"Much better than my brother." Ye Chi was happy that his friend was better than him!
The two children walked and talked like this, and when they arrived at the door of Mrs. Lu's house, the door of Mrs. Lu's house was opened, which meant that Lu Ming was at home, and Ye Chi was very happy. Sure enough, he saw Dahei running away like his butt was on fire.
Ye Chi: "..."
Lingling: "..."
"Okay, we don't care about Dahei." Ye Chi took Lingling's little hand and said: "Let's go find Brother Fang!"
As soon as Ye Chi stepped into the courtyard gate, he shouted: "Grandma Lu, Grandpa Lu, are you at home? I'm here to find Brother Fang! Brother Fang! Brother Fang!"
As soon as Ye Chi's voice fell, he heard thumping footsteps upstairs. He raised his face and saw Lu Mingfang lying down on the railing, and immediately shouted: "Brother Fang!"
There was a little smile in Lu Mingfang's eyes.
Ye Chi shouted: "Brother Fang, come down! Let's play!"
Lu Mingfang nodded, went downstairs, and ran to Ye Chi in one breath. Ye Chi asked, "Brother Fang, are you back?"
Lu Mingfang nodded.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time." Ye Chi said.
Lu Mingfang pursed his lips after hearing this, and only then did he catch a glimpse of a little girl standing next to Ye Chi from the corner of his eye. He turned his head and saw that the little girl was small, with round eyes that were neither too big nor too small, which was pretty.
Ye Chi tugged Lingling's little hand and said, "Lingling, call Brother Fang."
Lingling called out: "Brother Fang."
Lu Mingfang's face tensed instantly, he turned around and left.
Lingling: "..."
