Chapter 27
"My name is Xiaoyu and your name is Xiaobai!
Xiaoyu!" Xiaoyu pointed at herself, and then pointed at Xiaobai.
"noob!"
"Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu...!!!" Ever since she learned that this bird could speak human language, Xiaoyu began to teach Xiaobai how to speak very patiently.
"Xiaoyu!" Until one time, Xiaobai followed her and talked to her. The little girl immediately jumped up excitedly, hugged Xiaobai and kissed her twice. Then she held up the treasure to present to her brother, as if she had just completed a great project.
Some people say that parrots have the wisdom of a seven-year-old child, but Li Xiao is not so sure. He has two children under seven years old at home. Doesn’t that mean that this bird is smarter than them? God knows how old this bird is. Anyway, listen
It was said that British Prime Minister Churchill kept a parrot, which was still very energetic and cursing people even though it was over a hundred years old.
The development of the matter was completely beyond Li Xiao's expectation, because this flat-haired beast was really trying to learn human language. And the voice he learned was almost exactly the same as Xiaoyu's milky voice.
It's just a simple Xiaoyu, and it's not a problem for Xiaobai. But when this smart guy learned more vocabulary, Li Xiao started to pull his hair.
"Xiaoyu, it's time to eat! Wash your hands quickly!" Li Xiao shouted to the back room.
"Why?"
"Wash your hands clean and eat, and your stomach won't hurt. Xiaoyu is the best!"
"Why?"
"You don't want to wash your hands, do you? Then ask why brother wants to beat you."
"Why?"
"Don't ask so many whys, come out and wash your hands quickly."
"Why?"
"You kid...Xiaobai...!" Looking at the flat-haired beast on the beam, Li Xiao had the urge to catch it and cook it in brown sauce.
Xiaoyu clapped her hands and laughed beside her. She was very happy to see her elder brother making a fool of herself. As a result, Li Xiao was so angry that his brain collapsed. Li Hu, who was also laughing happily, was kicked by Li Xiao!
Thinking about it, I felt angry and kicked him again.
Xiaobai learns new vocabulary every day, and this has happened several times. Li Xiao's meaningless conversation with a parrot has become a repertoire of his younger siblings.
Whenever Li Xiao, Li Xiu, Li Hu, Li Hao, and Xiaoyu laughed like silver bells, Xiaobai would put up his crest like an Indian war flag, fly to the tree excitedly, and then not
Stop repeating your name.
"noob!"
"noob!"
Li Xiao was so angry that he couldn't do anything to the bird. If he knew that it was Li Xiao who killed the bird, Xiaoyu would die of grief. Making Xiaoyu sad in this yard is tantamount to becoming a public enemy of the country.
But this did not hinder Li Xiao's revenge. Li Xiao broke open the ice and got some small fish. He stewed them in a pot and put them on the ground next to the yard. Within two days, several cats came here to look for food.
.
Two of them were calico cats with black stripes on their bodies, and they were extremely agile. Li Xiao saw them more than once, raising their heads to watch Little White on the tree licking his lips.
Xiaobai obviously has experience in dealing with cats and children. He must have been bullied by naughty children and cats many times before.
When cats approach Xiaobai with their unique curiosity, there will be a burst of barking of hounds. At this time, the cats will look around in horror. Although they do not see the shadow of the dog, they will still run away as fast as possible.
On the wall.
Then Li Xiao saw Xiaobai, who was like a bomber, fluttering his wings and swooping down. His strong and powerful claws would always bring critical damage to the poor cat. But after two times, the cat no longer wanted to trouble Xiaobai. Eat
He dropped Li Xiao's fish, then turned around and walked away. He didn't even look at Xiaobai who landed on the wall. As long as the cats didn't provoke them, Xiaobai wouldn't imitate the barking of dogs to scare them.
The harmony between the two parties was so complete that Li Xiao rolled his eyes in anger.
What makes Li Xiao even more desperate is that the average life span of wild parrots is sixty years. Domestic parrots are much longer. Churchill raised a hundred-year-old parrot. God! Just think about how long he will live when he is seventy or eighty years old.
After a fierce battle with a flat-haired beast, Li Xiao had the urge to commit suicide!
Li Xiao had countless calculations, but he still couldn't figure it out. As a time traveler, his most tenacious enemy was actually a parrot.
But today Li Xiao didn't want to get angry with this flat-haired beast, so it would be more reliable to make a meal of dumplings during the winter solstice. He chose a large piece of meat with 30% pork belly and threw it to Li Hu to chop into mince. As for Li Hu, he took the fat
Meat, tease Xiaobai and induce it to talk, just pretend you don't see it.
Li Xiu was on another pier, chopping radish hard. Under the flying knife, the crystal clear radish shreds turned into pieces. Li Hao and Xiaoyu were peeling onions and peeling garlic.
Li Xiao worked hard to knead the dough himself, and he had to knead the dough well to steam the dumplings. Kneading the dough was a strenuous job, and Li Xiao couldn't bear to let his younger brothers and sisters do it, so he had to do it himself. There was too much water, so Li Xiao could only ask Li Hao to add it.
A little bit of noodles. As a result, the little guy poured a spoonful of noodles into the basin, and Li Xiao had no choice but to add water. After repeated attempts several times, Li Xiao felt that after finishing the dumplings today, he could still eat steamed buns for a few days.
The sun was shining in the small yard, and everyone was so busy working that their heads were covered with sweat.
Three big men appeared at the entrance of the small courtyard, all wearing Ming army uniforms. Looking inside through the courtyard door, they looked shady and did not look like good people.
"Xiaoyu! Xiaoyu!" Everyone was busy working, and it was Xiaobai who first discovered these three guys.
"What are you going to do!" Li Hu and Li Xiu immediately gathered in front of Li Xiao, who had his hands full of faces.
"Which one of you is Li Xiao!" One of the guys asked after seeing the people in the yard. When this guy spoke, his tongue was obviously hard. This guy is not Han, so why is he wearing the clothes of the Ming army? Could it be that he is dressed as a bandit?
"I am Li Xiao. May I ask what you three are doing?" Li Xiao took the kitchen knife from Li Xiu's hand and asked.
"Our eldest brother is a friend of leader Geritu. Leader Geritu said that he can ask you for help if he has any difficulties." The big man felt a little unsure when he saw that Li Xiao was just a young man. But Geritu said that he and Liaodong Jing
We have friends with the young masters of the Lue family. Now that the eldest brother is in trouble, he has to try his luck.
"Oh! Did Geritu ask you to come?" Li Xiao was surprised. Geritu was quite interesting to talk about. Before leaving, he not only gave Li Xiao ten taels of silver, but also left behind a dairy goat and
A slaughtered sheep. Xiaoyu has goat milk to drink these days, all thanks to that dairy goat.
"Geritu said before leaving that if we have difficulties in Liaoyang Mansion, we can come to you for help. We are Mongolians too!"
