Chapter 93

The three girls were captivated by various pets, playing to their heart's content, while Su Jing went to prepare lunch.

The three girls took turns teasing Ah Li, other kittens, and puppies, and took out their phones to take photos madly, vowing not to stop until they had taken several photos of each pet. Su Ya even made Ah Li play a tune with them and recorded a video, which she would surely show off to her classmates at school.

Just as the three girls were completely engrossed in their play, a somewhat sharp voice suddenly rang out.

“What’s your name?”

“Who’s talking?” Su Ya was taken aback.

“It’s not me,” Tang Xiaoyu and Qin Shuang shook their heads simultaneously.

“What’s your name?” The sharp voice sounded again. This time, the three girls heard it clearly and looked in the direction of the voice, only to see two green parrots standing at the window. Were they the ones talking?

“Hello,” the three girls immediately ran over, their faces full of curiosity.

“What’s your name?” one of the parrots called out.

“Haha, my name is...” Tang Xiaoyu was amused by the parrot and answered.

“You mustn’t say it, saying it is cursing,” the other parrot interrupted Tang Xiaoyu.

“...” Su Ya and Qin Shuang were first stunned, then burst into laughter.

“Stinky parrot, daring to curse people, your name is the real curse,” Tang Xiaoyu laughed and scolded.

“This girl looks pretty good,” one parrot called out, which made Tang Xiaoyu’s mood improve.

“Indeed, she looks like an actress when she covers her face,” the other parrot called out.

“Hahaha...” Su Ya and Qin Shuang laughed again, so hard they couldn’t straighten their waists.

“I’m going to pluck their feathers and make soup,” Tang Xiaoyu, angry, tried to catch the two parrots, but was held back by Su Ya and Qin Shuang.

“These two parrots are so interesting, it’s like they’re doing crosstalk,” Qin Shuang said.

“It sounds like a Guo Degang crosstalk segment, my brother likes to listen to it, maybe he learned it from my brother,” Su Ya said with a smile.

The two parrots started talking back and forth.

“Excuse me, sir, how do I get to America?”

“Who knows... Go ask the village chief!”

“We decided, in heaven to be birds flying side by side, on earth to be broccoli.”

“That’s right, if two hearts are one, why care about pork?”

Su Ya and Qin Shuang laughed so hard, and Tang Xiaoyu, forgetting that the parrots had just cursed her, joined in. Some crosstalk segments were inherently funny, and when said by the parrots, they became even more amusing.

“This is too funny, I’m going to record it.” The three girls took out their phones and started recording non-stop, playing even more enthusiastically. However, when they tried to run to the backyard, several large dogs barked fiercely, blocking their way, forcing them to run back. Su Ya ran to complain to Su Jing, but he only pretended to comfort her, saying that being scared by the dogs was better than being scared by the man-eating vines.

A loud cry rang out, and the golden eagle that had gone out to play returned, descending from the sky.

“Wow, such a big bird,” Qin Shuang exclaimed.

“That’s a golden eagle... Wow, so cool,” Tang Xiaoyu said as the golden eagle landed on the eaves. Now, the golden eagle’s wingspan was 1.7 meters, its posture more agile and powerful, its feathers more lustrous, and its eyes more sharp, making it look incredibly handsome.

“Brother, is this golden eagle also yours?” Su Ya shouted.

“Yes,” Su Jing’s voice came from the kitchen.

“Let me touch it, let me touch it,” Su Ya said excitedly.

“Little Jin, come down and play with them,” Su Jing called out.

The golden eagle called out somewhat discontentedly but still flew down and landed on the ground, though it held its head high in a haughty manner. The three girls ran up and couldn’t help but carefully touch the golden eagle’s feathers, becoming bolder when it didn’t attack.

“Its feathers are so smooth.”

“It’s so handsome.”

“Come help me take a photo.”

“Take one for me, then one for all of us.”

The golden eagle, clearly unhappy, accompanied the three girls in taking photos. If not for Su Jing’s command, it would have definitely flown away.

“Lunch is ready, let’s eat and then play,” around noon, Su Jing carried two plates of seafood out of the kitchen.

“I’ll help,” Qin Shuang offered, running to the kitchen to help serve the dishes. Su Ya and Tang Xiaoyu also put down the cats and dogs, washed their hands, and helped serve the dishes. Once all the dishes were on the table, Qin Shuang couldn’t wait to pick up her chopsticks and start eating voraciously, completely losing her ladylike image.

“Qin Shuang, pay attention to your image,” Tang Xiaoyu laughed and scolded, then put a piece of yellow croaker in her mouth, her eyes immediately widening as the deliciousness made her drool, and she forgot what she had just said, starting to eat heartily.

“Is it really that good?” Su Ya was somewhat skeptical. She had eaten her brother’s cooking many times but had never been satisfied. Recently, she had heard that her brother’s cooking skills had improved, but she didn’t really believe it. After taking a bite, she couldn’t stop, continuously putting seafood in her mouth and praising, “Brother, how did your cooking skills become so good?”

“You were just looking down on my cooking, you shouldn’t eat it,” Su Jing pretended to take away the plate of yellow croaker in front of Su Ya.

“No, no, Brother, I’m wrong...” Su Ya quickly protected the yellow croaker.

“Su Ya, did you know that Jing Brother has been called a little culinary god?” Qin Shuang asked.

“My brother told me last time, but I thought he was joking...” Su Ya stuck out her tongue at Su Jing, then suddenly remembered something, “Ah, I get it, Qin Shuang, you must have eaten my brother’s cooking before, that’s why you insisted on coming when you heard his name.”

“What else did you think?” Qin Shuang laughed, admitting it openly.

“...” Su Ya and Tang Xiaoyu were speechless, almost thinking that Qin Shuang had a crush on her brother (Su Jing).

“Qin Shuang, stinky girl, don’t take mine.” Tang Xiaoyu was about to take the last piece of sea crab but was beaten to it by the quick-handed Qin Shuang.

“Don’t eat so much, you’ll get fat,” Qin Shuang directly stuffed the large piece of sea crab into her mouth.

“You’re the one who’s fat,” Tang Xiaoyu scolded.

The three girls completely disregarded their image, eating like three hungry wolves. It didn’t take long for the entire table of seafood to be swept clean, and by the end, the three girls were a bit stuffed, their bellies round and full.

“Your place is so much fun,” as evening approached and they were about to leave, Tang Xiaoyu was very reluctant.

“Why don’t we stay the night?” Qin Shuang said with a thick face.

“Please, we have class tomorrow, don’t act like you’re more reluctant than me. Is this your home or mine?” Su Ya was speechless, though she also wanted to stay longer, she couldn’t skip school. She could only come back on Saturdays and Sundays.

In the evening, Su Ya went to the Zhenhong Seafood Store to greet her uncle, aunt, and sister-in-law, and naturally called out to the village elders. Finally, she symbolically went to see the fishing grounds and could go back to report to her parents.
