After Huahua fell asleep, she didn't wake up until the next morning. As soon as she opened her eyes, she meowed and meowed everywhere to find food. At the moment, Luo Meng was squatting in the yard to kill chickens and ignored it for a while. Went into the house to pester Liu Chunlan.

"How can this cat be eaten?" Soon, Liu Chunlan's nagging came from the room.

"Don't keep eating it too closely. If you feed it so much every day, it will still catch mice? You won't be able to grow a lazy cat in the future." Old Man Luo said.

"If you want it to be hungry, can Monkey agree?" Liu Chunlan said as she took out a plate of ribs from the cabinet, poured some soup into the rice bowl in her hand, picked up two more ribs, and mixed it up Pour into the flower bowl.

"A lazy cat is a lazy cat. Anyway, we don't have many mice on this mountain." Old man Luo thought for a while, then smiled and said, since Monkey likes it, let him be a pet cat.

"You just talk a lot." In many places, people believe that rats can understand human speech, and they are evil, and some things cannot be said.

"What are you afraid of? The Bull King is in charge."

"If you ask me, all the mice on the mountain must have been eaten by that cauliflower snake."

"A few days ago, when I went to the reservoir on the mountainside to look at the water, I saw it sitting on a rock basking in the sun. It also saw me, and just took a look, but it didn't move. I don't know if it's afraid of people. , you can still tell the difference between good and bad.”

"Can it still be that powerful?"

"I looked at it like it was human."

"It's good to have such a snake staying on the mountain to catch mice, but luckily it wasn't eaten by Lao Xiao at the beginning."

"I haven't seen it recently. I don't know if it's too cold and hibernating."

Liu Chunlan, old man Luo, and the others now know about the existence of two thousand five, and many people in Niuwangzhuang know that this big snake was bought by Lao Zhou and the others for two thousand, five hundred yuan, and no one wants to beat it. idea.

As for Huang Daxian, there are very few people who know about it. This guy is smaller and easier to hide than [-]. In addition, he seldom comes out to move around during the day, let alone lie on the rocks to bask in the sun. Everyone basically has no chance to meet it face to face.

"The chicken is finished, do we want to save some here?" At this time, Luo Meng entered the house while wiping his hands with a rag.

Until now, Lao Zhou refused to give up looking for chicken spirits, because there were too many little roosters tied up by him at the beginning, and his family could not consume them all, so he has almost contracted all the work of killing chickens recently. For the extra meal over there, the chickens were killed by Lao Zhou himself, and the little roosters for Boss Xiao were also killed and brought over.

"I won't keep it. After the fat man is cooked, let's go and order some and come back to eat." Liu Chunlan said.

"Okay, then I'll mention it." Romon replied.

"Have you cleaned up the chicken intestines?" Old Man Luo asked him.

"I didn't get it. It's too troublesome. Throw it away." Romon said.

"Five chickens, a lot of chicken intestines, enough to make a plate, I will make it later, don't worry about it." Old man Luo waved his hand.

The chicken sausage tastes good, but it’s very troublesome to make it. I can’t eat it at noon anyway. The old man Luo made it slowly in the afternoon. When he finished it, Houwazi also came back from the kindergarten with his schoolbag on his back. He came back with him They are the two sisters, Meihui and Meiling.

This day, Luo Hongfeng had a lot of things to do in the store, so Liu Chunlan asked her to bring the two girls to Luo Meng's place to eat. When she went to pick up Luo Meiling just now, she picked up Houwazi along the way. Today is It's the last day of kindergarten this semester, and Houwazi and the others don't have to go to school tomorrow.

I bought some food for the night from the courtyard, and I cooked another plate of chicken intestines mixed with a tofu. Three children and five adults had fun at the dinner table.There is no rule in their family not to talk when they eat or sleep, and the adults and children at the dinner table talk lively.

Luo Meiling is most concerned about when her five citrus trees will be planted. Luo Meihui is obviously more concerned about pig blood peaches. I heard that those peaches are as red as pig blood when they ripen. They taste sweet and juicy, full of peach flavor. A while ago, Luo Hongfeng, Liu Chunlan and the others talked about this peach at home, and Luo Meihui thought about it.

"Taking advantage of these two days, you two can tidy up Houwazi's room, and don't ask him to sleep downstairs again next year." When the dinner was almost over, old man Luo said to Luo Meng.

"It's warm downstairs." Romon replied after taking a big mouthful of rice.

Houwazi's nest is next to the fireplace, which is indeed warmer than upstairs. The basket that Xiao Shulin wove for him was big enough, and a quilt was spread inside, and a new quilt was made for it. Wearing it makes people feel very comfortable, and Houwazi obviously likes it very much.

"Then we can't always ask him to sleep downstairs." The fireplace in Luo Meng's hut is similar to a stove in the eyes of Liu Chunlan and Luo, and they don't have the habit of sleeping on a kang like the northerners. No one sleeps by the stove, only cats and dogs sleep by the stove.

"Son, shall we sleep on the second floor from now on?" Romon asked Houwazi's opinion.

"Oh." Houwazi responded, and took a spoonful of fried chicken intestines with a spoon and poured it into Huahua's small bowl. Huahua likes to eat this the most. Before Houwazi's spoon arrived, he had stretched his neck and waited. there.

There is nothing in Houwazi's room. When Romeng built the house, he never thought that he would have a son. He thought that this room would be used as a study or a utility room, so he only made the last one. Basic simple decoration.

Now that Houwazi is going to live in, Luo Meng and Xiao Shulin decided to decorate the small room, so they asked Houwazi what he likes. The kid thought about it for a long time and said that he liked birds. After a long time, I decided to make a bird's nest for him.

Don’t worry about wood. Those houses in the town are also being renovated now. The previous batch of renovations have been completed, and people have moved in one after another. Now there are still a few higher floors that have not been renovated.

Luo Meng asked Master Gan to adjust some treated wood, and he and Xiao Shulin brought a few tools to his hut, Ding Ding Dang Dang to start the decoration by himself.Xiao Shulin's hands-on ability is strong, and Luo Meng is not bad. The two of them can use hammer, chisel, and saw, and they are also fluent in electric tools.

"Why is it still a nest?" The old man Luo went upstairs to take a look this afternoon, and found that Luo Meng and Xiao Shulin had made another nest for the monkey boy. This time it was made of wood, which looked quite delicate, but the shape, It looks like a nest, not a bed.

"Monkey boy likes it." Romon said with a chuckle.

"You just get used to it." The old man Luo snorted twice, and then looked back and forth in the room. In the past, when people said that decorating a room, it was nothing more than setting up a bed and a few tables and cabinets. Life is richer, and the house is decorated more and more beautifully. Now Luo Meng and Xiao Shulin's way of playing is even more fresh in the eyes of old man Luo.

"How did you make the ceiling?" Old man Luo looked at it and couldn't help asking.

"A few layers of wooden boards have been put on, and the color is painted by Xiao Shulin. How about it? It looks real, right?" Romon explained to him enthusiastically.

"It's a waste." Old man Luo hummed twice again, this old man has such a temperament, he just refuses to say good words to others.

"What else do you want to do?" After a while, he asked again.

"Here, paint blue, you see, here and here, the borders are all painted."

"I saw."

"Just brush it on, I'll give you the brush."

"Green over there in a while?"

"How do you know?"

"What else can't be seen?"

"..."

For this small room, Luo Meng and Xiao Shulin really put a lot of thought into it. Later, even the old man Luo joined in. The three of them were busy for several days, and finally finished it before the New Year's Eve.

On the morning of the New Year's Eve, Romon got up early, and Xiao Shulin didn't go to the town to practice martial arts. After the two finished grooming, they dug the monkey out of the nest.

"Son, we're going to give you a New Year's gift." Lao Zhou slapped a kiss on the sleepy-eyed Monkey Boy.

"What is it?" Houwazi yawned with his mouth wide open, and rubbed his eyes again.

Luo Meng and Xiao Shulin took Houwazi to the door of his room and encouraged him, "Open it and have a look."

Houwazi stood on tiptoe, grasped the handle on the door and turned it lightly...

"Chi Chi Chi... Chi Chi Chi..."

"Chirp chirp! Chirp chirp!"

"Duk! Tuk!"

"Chi Chi Chi... Chi Chi..."

"..."

As the cracks of the door opened wider and wider, a green space came into view, as if it was a corner of the canopy of a big tree in the deep mountains. The green leaves covered a large area of ​​the sky, but there were still wisps of sunshine Through the gaps in the leaves, it was the electric lights installed on the ceiling by Romon and Xiao Shulin.

At the foot is a huge brown branch. The place where this branch intersects with the main trunk is the small nest where the monkey boy will sleep in for many years to come. The workmanship is very meticulous, and the sleeping place inside is also very flat and comfortable.

The surrounding walls were also decorated with blue and green wall paint, and some small branches were made to look like real ones. Coupled with the recording of birdsong specially prepared by Romon before, the moment of opening the door At that moment, Houwazi felt that he had suddenly come to the big tree.

"Do you like it?" Lao Zhou leaned on the door frame and looked at his son with a smile, while Xiao Shulin leaned on the other side, watching quietly with a faint smile on his face.

"I like it!" Houwazi turned around, his eyes sparkling with joy.
