Song Wenran brought Bai Ziqi home with the old man who sold wild mushrooms, and bought two chickens from him.

Later, when Song Wenran carried two live chickens alone, and Bai Ziqi returned with a plastic bag from the supermarket in one hand and a bag of wild mushrooms in the other, Bai Chong had already washed the pot and scalded all the new dishes in the kitchen. over again.

He saw Song Wenran coming back with a live chicken, and asked, "Why don't you give me some money and have someone kill it for you?"

Bai Ziqi was beside him and said coolly: "It's a big deal, if you can't kill it yourself, it's fine."

Bai Chong nodded, took a kitchen knife from the kitchen and handed it to him, "I'll leave it to you."

Bai Ziqi had no choice but to take the kitchen knife, and shouted at Bai Chong, "Why should I kill it?"

Bai Chong carried two plastic bags into the kitchen and said, "Is it okay to kill chickens?"

Bai Ziqi instantly felt underestimated, "Who can't?"

Song Wenran threw the two chickens with tied feet on the ground and said, "Wait a minute." He planned to find a bowl in the kitchen to catch the chicken blood.

Bai Ziqi raised the knife, walked up to the two chickens, and gestured with the knife somewhat at a loss.

Wen Qian came over and squatted beside him, whispering, "Are you going to kill them? How pitiful."

Bai Ziqi thought to himself why he would talk to a child, but he couldn't help but say: "Poor thing, don't eat at night."

Wen Qian said, "I won't eat."

Bai Ziqi glanced at her, and waved the knife in his hand, "Go away, the blood will splash all over you later."

Wen Qian's expression changed in fright, and she quickly stood up and took a few steps back.

Bai Ziqi glanced in the direction of the kitchen. Song Wenran didn't know what he was talking to Bai Chong after he entered. He faintly heard the laughter of the two of them.

As a result, the chicken that Song Wenran had been holding quietly in Song Wenran's hands suddenly fluttered its wings and struggled violently when he lifted it up. Bai Ziqi stood up and took two steps back, holding the chicken's feet in his hand and unwilling to let go. The chicken jumped at his face.

He was really frightened this time, and threw the chicken into the air. As a result, the chicken flapped its wings and flew into the air, and fell towards the top of his head.

Bai Ziqi yelled, and stepped back with a knife in his hand. Not far behind him were the barbecue grills that Bai Chong had brought in and hadn't had time to put together. Fall aside.

At the critical moment, he hadn't forgotten that he was holding a kitchen knife in his hand, so he quickly threw the knife to the right, and fell to the left by himself.

The one on the left is closer to Wen Qian. Seeing him falling down, Wen Qian reached out to grab him, but her short hands only grabbed his cropped pants, and she was forced to sit on the ground by her strength.Bai Ziqi's trouser waist was originally loose for the sake of fashion, but Wen Qian pulled it off for him, revealing the white underwear inside.

Song Wenran and Bai Chong came out of the kitchen one after the other. When they saw Wen Qian reaching out to pull Bai Ziqi, they couldn't help shouting: "Be careful!" Then they rushed over and hugged Wen Qian who was sitting on the ground. stand up.

Wen Qian was taken aback, but hadn't realized what happened.

Bai Chong also walked up to Bai Ziqi and asked, "Are you all right?"

Bai Ziqi blushed, got up and pulled up his pants, feeling ashamed and annoyed.

"Wow," Bai Yangyu lay beside the window on the second floor, poked his head out to look down, and when he saw Bai Ziqi looking up at him, he applauded Bai Ziqi expressionlessly. run outside.

Song Wenran called him: "Ziqi!"

Bai Chong pressed Song Wenran's arm, "I'll go see him."

When Bai Chong chased him out, Bai Ziqi was squatting beside the car, looking down at a group of ants carrying cake crumbs on the ground. He rolled up his sleeves, walked up to Bai Ziqi, and said, "What a big deal."

Bai Ziqi didn't look at him.

Bai Chong said: "When I was your age, I killed all the chickens and pigs during the festivals at home."

Bai Ziqi finally turned his head to look at him, "Your family are all powerful, so I'm the only one who can't do it, okay?"

Bai Chong squatted beside him, raised his hand and pressed lightly on his shoulder, "Aren't we a family? You are my son, why can't you?"

"Bai Yangyu is your son," Bai Ziqi muffled.

Bai Chong thought about his words, "Actually, I don't know how to tell you. Whether it's Wen Ran or Yang Yu, I can communicate with them comfortably and try to understand them, but I find it difficult to face you. .”

Bai Ziqi looked at him: "Because I'm not as important as them in your heart."

Bai Chong shook his head, "Because every time we talk, you set a position for yourself and stand on the opposite side of me. No matter what I say, you think I'm lying to you and trying to brainwash you, but it's not like that. .”

Bai Ziqi said, "Obviously that's the case."

Bai Chong was silent for a while, "What I wanted to tell you just now is that it doesn't matter if you don't know how to kill chickens, because Dad can do it."

Bai Ziqi was obviously taken aback.

Bai Chong continued: "In the future, you don't need to know how to cook, or even cook, because as long as you can make money by yourself, these skills are the trivial things in your life. You can learn them if you want to, and forget it if you don't want to learn them."

Bai Ziqi buried his head on his arm.

Bai Chong said: "Actually, Bai Yangyu doesn't know how to kill chickens. If you don't believe me, you can ask him to try it. It's no big deal. What you should do now is to let go of your heart, and don't resist everyone at your acceptable distance from the beginning." In addition, you will not be happy, and everyone will not be happy, understand?"

Bai Ziqi still didn't speak.

Bai Chong stood up, reached out to pat him on the shoulder, turned around and walked towards the inside.

When he came back, Song Wenran was grabbing a chicken, plucking the hair off its neck, and was about to bleed it.

Bai Chong walked up to him and knelt down, asking, "Will you?"

Song Wenran said, "I saw it when I was young."

Bai Chong took the knife with a smile, "You grab it, I'll do it."

Song Wenran held the chicken's wings and feet tightly to prevent it from struggling. Bai Chong quickly cut the chicken's neck with a knife, and Song Wenran quickly put the chicken blood that flowed out into the empty bowl in front of him.

Bai Chong squatted beside him and didn't get up.

Song Wenran whispered, "Bai Ziqi is still angry?"

Bai Chong said: "In his adolescence, he was angry for 360 days out of [-] five days a year."

Song Wenran thought it was a little funny, and then raised his head to look at the second floor, and saw that Bai Yangyu was no longer by the window, he still lowered his voice, and said to Bai Chong: "I think Bai Yangyu is a bad boy."

Bai Chong rubbed the edge of the bowl casually with the knife, and said, "He's pretending to be stupid, that brat pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger."

Song Wenran asked, "Is the tiger my brother?"

Bai Chong smiled, "Then what are you?"

Song Wenran thought for a while and said, "My brother is a tiger, so why should I be a leopard?"

Bai Chong suddenly stretched out his hand and scratched his chin, "They are all cats."

The two were laughing and squatting on the ground to bleed the chicken. At this moment, Bai Ziqi finally figured it out, rushed in, stood on the balcony and shouted towards the second floor: "Bai Yangyu! Come down! If you have the ability, kill a chicken for me to see." ah!"

Bai Yangyu didn't answer him, but after a while, he silently came down from upstairs, walked to Bai Chong's side, and asked him for a knife.

When Bai Chong handed him the knife, he said, "Be careful."

Bai Yangyu said "Mmm", walked to the middle of the terrace with the knife in his hand, picked up the chicken wings and picked up the other chicken, and said to Bai Ziqi, "Help me."

Bai Ziqi looked at him for a while, then reached out to grab the chicken wings.

Bai Yangyu acted rudely, grabbed the chicken's head, and without thinking, raised the kitchen knife and chopped it down.

Song Wenran realized what he was going to do, and stood up in panic to stop him: "No!"

But it was already too late, Bai Yangyu raised the knife in his hand, and at the same time as the chicken's head was cut off, chicken blood sprayed the two of them all over.

Bai Ziqi was dumbfounded.

Bai Yangyu raised his head to look at him calmly, "It's over." He was still holding a knife in his hand, his face and body were covered with blood, and the momentary situation was a bit scary.

Song Wenran walked over, snatched the bloody headless chicken from Bai Ziqi's hand, took it to catch the blood first, then looked at the mess on the balcony, and said, "Go take a shower and change your clothes first."

Wen Qian was watching cartoons on a tablet in her room, but when she heard the sound she shouted, "Second Brother?", she wanted to come out and watch.

Song Wenran shouted: "Don't come out!"

Bai Yangyu took the knife back to Bai Chong and put it down, looked at Bai Ziqi coldly, reached out to wipe the blood off his face, then turned and went back into the room.

Bai Ziqi froze in place, and after a while he walked over to Bai Chong and said, "I'll sleep on the first floor tonight."

Bai Chong watched them two calmly from beginning to end. At this moment, Bai Ziqi said that he would sleep on the first floor, so he said, "Are you afraid that he will kill you at night?"

Bai Ziqi squatted down next to Bai Chong and said, "I think he is a pervert."

Bai Chong was a little amused, "You asked him to kill the chicken, so he killed it for you to see."

Bai Ziqi said, "You said he can't kill chickens!"

Bai Chong saw that he was full of chicken blood, "Do you think he will kill chickens?"

Bai Ziqi suddenly had nothing to say.

Bai Chong said: "Go take a shower and change clothes, stop making trouble, if you continue to make trouble, you won't have dinner tonight."

In the evening, Bai Chong cooked a pot of mushroom soup chicken, and the whole kitchen was filled with the aroma of the fusion of fresh mushrooms and local chicken.

Song Wenran set up a round table on the terrace, and lit a plate of mosquito coils under the table to repel mosquitoes.

Bai Chong asked Bai Ziqi to go to the supermarket to buy beer, but Bai Ziqi refused to go, so Bai Yangyu put on a coat and went out.

The supermarket is not far from here, and it takes about 10 minutes to walk. He went to buy a case of beer, and on the way back, a Volvo stopped beside him. Wen Wenyao pressed the car window and asked him: Don't want to give you a ride?"

Bai Yangyu turned his head and saw Wen Wenyao and immediately smiled, "Teacher, are you here?"

Wen Wenyao pushed the trunk open and told him to put the beer in and get in the car.

When Bai Yangyu got into the co-pilot, Wen Wenyao asked him: "Is dinner ready?"

Bai Yangyu nodded, "I killed the chicken myself."

Wen Wenyao laughed, "It's no big deal to kill a chicken. When I was a child, I went to the river to touch fish and cut eels. I never did anything. You children grew up in a greenhouse."

Bai Yangyu nodded in agreement, "Teacher is still the best."

The car drove on the highway for two to three minutes, Bai Yangyu pointed at the villa on the side of the road, "Here we are."

Wen Wenyao also saw Bai Chong's car parked at the door, so he parked the car on the other side, and when he opened the door and got out of the car, he smelled the fresh fragrance in the air.

Bai Yangyu opened the rear compartment, but didn't immediately remove the beer box until Wen Wenyao went to look at him, "What's wrong?"

Bai Yangyu grabbed Wen Wenyao's arm, pressed him down and kissed him, and only let go when he was satisfied.

Wen Wenyao slapped him on the head, "Get lost!"

Only now did Bai Yangyu lift the box, turned around and walked towards the house.
