Chapter 299 Idiot
Chapter 299 Idiot
But birds are different!
Hehehe~
Not only is the bird fluffy and cute, it can also fly! And even if the bird bites her ten times, it won't kill her.
Therefore, you can't keep other wild animals as pets. But you can keep birds!
Lin Lanshan grew happier the more she thought about it, and burst into laughter, clutching her wrist. She even forgot about being angry about the bitten hand earlier…
No no no!
She raised her hands to cover her cheeks and shook her head vigorously to clear her mind.
What are you doing?! You're still so happy after being bitten?
Don't let the gyrfalcon confuse her; it might think she's some kind of masochist. What if it gets too docile and keeps nibbling at her for no reason...?
Lin Lanshan exhaled a long breath to control her emotions, her lips tightened, her face darkened, and she angrily said to the gyrfalcon that was staring blankly at her:
"What are you looking at? You just stay here and reflect on your actions. I'll give you meat when you become well-behaved and stop biting people!"
And now, these few meatless bones are your dinner for tonight. Chew them slowly; with your sharp tongue and tendency to bite, this will smooth things out for you, hmph!
Then, he threw a pile of small chicken bones in front of it, and tossed a wolf pelt with several holes in it onto the bird's bewildered face.
He closed the door, tied the rope, and left.
The gyrfalcon burrowed under its thick fur for a long time before finally poking its head out.
It smoothed out its ruffled feathers, then stared quietly at the closed door for a long while before finally turning its eyes:
Humans are so strange...
Lin Lanshan, on the other hand, maintained her angry expression and strode towards the bedroom. But as soon as she reached the door, before she even stepped inside, her expression completely crumbled.
She pouted, opened her mouth wide, and began to sing, "Sister, waaaaah, I kindly brought that stinky bird food and water, and that stinky bird repaid kindness with enmity and bit me! It even tore off some of my flesh! You have to help me get revenge! Waaaaah..."
Lin Chunyi, who was sound asleep, was startled awake by a loud wail. "Huh? Who? Who bit you?"
"Bird! Stinky bird! That disobedient stinky bird!"
She looked up, still groggy, and said, "Oh, then bite back. I thought it was no big deal."
Then his head fell heavily back onto the pillow, and he fell asleep again with a tilt of his head.
"What did you say? I bit it? How could I bite it? It's covered in feathers! Hey, wake up! Wake up! That stinky bird bit me! Look at my wound, it's really bad, you have to help me get revenge!"
She shook her sister's shoulder, which was sticking out from under the blanket.
Lin Chunyi was fast asleep and had no intention of waking up. Her head, following the pulling sound, responded little by little, stammering, "Mmm~ Mmm, okay~ okay, go bite it~ go bite it~"
After saying that, she pushed away the annoying hand on her shoulder, pulled the blanket up to cover herself completely, leaving only half of her head sticking out.
Peach and Reunion, who were awakened by the noise, also opened their eyes.
They looked around and, finding nothing amiss, continued to warm themselves by the fireplace and closed their eyes again.
"..." Lin Lanshan's expression was unhappy (?﹏?)
Hmph, well, nobody cares about her!
In a fit of anger, Lin Lanshan stomped her foot. "If none of you care about me, then I won't care about myself either. Let me die in pain! Humph!"
She angrily kicked her shoes far away, then crawled into bed, closed her eyes, and went to sleep.
She even retaliated by snatching a piece of her sister's blanket, muttering under her breath: "I'll teach you to ignore me, I'll freeze you, I'll freeze you..."
January,
Youxian Mountain has quietly begun the transition from spring to winter.
Most of the withered yellow branches and rotten leaves lay in the soil, while new tender shoots sprouted from the ground in large patches.
The sunlight was warmer, the sky was bluer, and even the cold wind that had been blowing for months seemed to have softened.
Lin Chunyi and Lin Lanshan also ushered in their second year in this world.
Unlike last year's Chinese New Year, this year they will no longer be just the two of them.
In their simple and peaceful world, peaches and family reunions and good health have become more abundant.
There's also an uncooperative gyrfalcon—Silly Egg.
As for why he's called "Silly Egg," that goes back to the day when there were only three days left until New Year's Eve.
That day, the two sisters had just discussed cutting up some old red clothes to make some new clothes for Peach and Reunion, so that they could also have a taste of the New Year.
"Sis, make one for Silly Egg too, it's a member of our family now."
Lin Chunyi held the hem of her clothes in one hand and scissors in the other, standing under the osmanthus tree, gesturing as she figured out where to start cutting.
Upon hearing the name, her mind was filled with questions.
"What the hell? Idiot? What idiot? You?"
"You're the idiot! How could someone as smart as me be called an idiot... Oh no! I mean the gyrfalcon, the new name I gave it is 'Silly Egg'! And it agreed to it." Lin Lanshan said confidently.
No words, no shouts, no resistance—that meant agreement!
That's right!
Lin Chunyi looked at her sister in disbelief: "It's a perfectly good big bird, a majestic and imposing gyrfalcon, and what kind of lousy name did you give it? 'Silly Egg'!"
Honestly, it doesn't even sound as good as calling it a silly bird.
Lin Lanshan stretched out the other side of her clothes and said confidently, "Sister, this is what you don't understand!"
The name "Haidongqing" is so imposing! Just hearing it tells outsiders how precious it is! Once it steps out, everyone, whether they know it or not, will be tempted to catch it, right?
But calling someone a name as awful as "Silly Egg" is different! Listen to that, "Silly Egg," what an ordinary, even idiotic, name!
We can call it whatever we want outside; people will just think we're calling it "Idiot," and they certainly won't be curious about what it is. Besides, "Idiot" itself really likes its new name!
She looked up at the gyrfalcon perched on the osmanthus tree, its greyish-white form barely concealed by the full canopy of leaves. "You're right, aren't you, you idiot?"
The gyrfalcon glanced down at her, then continued to crane its neck to look at the sky it longed to return to.
You're the idiot! An idiot doesn't know what a fool is, but a silly bird certainly doesn't understand! Humph!
Lin Chunyi lowered her head and continued cutting, saying helplessly, "All this rambling on and on, I think you just want to get revenge for the bite it gave you."
Speaking of this, Lin Lanshan became extremely excited, putting down the clothes she was holding and rolling up her sleeves to thrust them in front of her sister.
"It's not a matter of whether I retaliate or not, sister. Look closely, look at the bites it gave me! If there were rabies vaccines available here, I would have gone down the mountain that very night to get vaccinated!"
The red and swollen marks on her wrist had turned into a mixture of blue, purple, and red.
It looks like it's a little bit serious.
