there are geese in the house

The snow did not stop all night.

Cheng Yikuan was thinking about Jiang Yan's reply the night before, so he didn't sleep well, but it was only after five o'clock the next day, and he heard geese calling outside.

The big goose barked loudly and loudly, and when it came out, someone's dog barked immediately.

Cheng Yikuan was so frightened that he almost lost his mind, he quickly turned over, thinking about whether to muzzle the goose so as not to disturb the people, and saw that the guy on the balcony changed to humming, and while humming, he was excitedly stepping on the snow on the balcony .

The snow accumulation is very thick. This is the first snow this winter, more than a month later than in previous years, but fortunately, the posture is sincere enough. At this moment, the tree branches are covered with a layer as thick as a thumb.The maple leaf pattern on the balcony also left a long list.

Jiang Yan was very happy at the moment. He was actually woken up by the cold. He didn't realize it when he stayed in Wang Yan's goose house before, but now he slept on the open-air balcony for a night and realized that the geese are not very cold-resistant.After waking up and sleeping all night, he couldn't help knocking on the door a few times, but Cheng Yikuan was sleeping soundly, and Jiang Yan couldn't let him go out, so he could only sigh, huddled in the corner, opened his eyes and looked at the door. snow.

When I woke up again, there was a thick layer of snow on the balcony.Jiang Yan shook his feathers, and suddenly remembered "It's snowing, it's snowing, a group of little painters came in the snow..." in the elementary school textbook

There are chickens, puppies, ducks and ponies in the textbooks, but there are no gooses.Jiang Yan looked down at his goose paws, thinking that they should be in the shape of maple leaves, just like ducklings, so he stepped forward a few steps cautiously while thinking about it.Looking back, sure enough, the maple leaves on the left and right rows are perfectly shaped, patchwork and very beautiful.

Jiang Yan felt the novelty and couldn't help screaming a few times.The big goose's voice was loud and clear, and there was an echo in the neighborhood immediately.Jiang Yan realized that he might disturb others, so he immediately changed to humming in a low voice, walking from one end of the balcony to the other, and then back again. The balcony was covered with maple leaves in a short while.In order not to destroy the pattern, he walked around the corner of the wall and looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction.

After admiring it for a few seconds, Jiang Yanzheng regretted that he didn't bring a camera and couldn't take pictures, when he heard the balcony door being opened a crack with a "swish".

He looked up suspiciously, and found that it was Cheng Yikuan who came in with his hand extended.

"Let me show you your goose's masterpiece!" Cheng Yikuan pointed at it with the camera of his mobile phone and began to shoot, "This stupid goose knocked on the door at night, and it's not yet dawn, and it started barking again... I don't think I can bear it Yes, you can pick it up today."

Jiang Yan glanced at him with black bean eyes, and turned his face away.

Cheng Yikuan sent the video, stretched out his hand again, and recorded a new one, with a gentle tone, "Are you awake, Jiang Yan? It's snowing today, let me show you the picture that Big Goose drew early in the morning..."

Jiang Yan: "..."

Cheng Yikuan played it back after recording and was satisfied. He was about to send it to Jiang Yan when his phone rang.

He immediately stood up straight, and when he looked carefully, it was Wang Yan.

"I'm sorry, Brother Cheng, is Guagua not used to it?" Wang Yan obviously didn't wake up, and yawned and called, "Guagua?"

Jiang Yan immediately flapped his wings: "Ang——"

"Can you adapt there?" Wang Yan asked.

Jiang Yan hummed aggrievedly, and Wang Yan immediately laughed.

"If it really doesn't work, I'll pick it up, but I have to keep an eye on the store for the past two days for renovation, lest the smell here will be bad for Muggles." Wang Yan's voice became much clearer, and she said to Cheng Yikuan, "Brother Cheng, can you see if this is okay? If you look at it again today, if you really can't accept it, I will pick it up. If you can... Please keep it for two days. I will pick him up in two days."

Cheng Yikuan leaned against the door frame, glanced at the big goose, and said in surprise: "You can just leave him at home, isn't there an aunt to take care of him?"

"Auntie..." Wang Yan was silent for two seconds, and said, "I couldn't find the suitcase when I was packing the Muggles that day, so I went to check the monitor to see where I put it last time. The result ..."

She lowered her voice when she said this: "I saw that the Muggle had been hiding in the cage for a few days before I came back, not moving much, hardly eating, and panting with open mouth... I asked a foster A bird expert, the man said that he couldn’t tell what kind of illness he had from watching the video, but he guessed it might be a stress response after being frightened. Because the feathers on the top of the Muggle’s head stood up one day, and they hid everywhere,... But the earlier video is gone, and I don’t know what happened at home.”

Cheng Yikuan didn't expect this to happen. He glanced at the big goose who was eavesdropping, thought for a while, and closed the door with a swipe.

Jiang Yan: "..."

"This time I really caused you trouble." Wang Yan sighed, "I don't know how to say it."

"It's okay, I'll just say it casually. After all, this is also Patti's goose." Cheng Yikuan paused after speaking, then turned his head to look at the balcony, and sure enough, a small head was sneakily stuck to the glass, seeing him turn his head , Take it back with a "whoosh".

"...You goose," Cheng Yikuan couldn't help but said, "Don't you think there is something wrong?"

"Ah? What's the problem?" Wang Yan tensed up, "Are the Muggles sick?"

"No, why do I feel that it seems to understand human speech?"

"You said this, small animals are like this after being raised for a long time, and they have become human." Wang Yan relieved and smiled, "It's just that kittens and dogs are more common, and pigs can also play games."

Cheng Yikuan let out an "oh" before he understood.He promised Wang Yan to raise him for another two days, hung up the phone and checked that it was still early, but the company had an early meeting that day, and it was snowing outside, so the road would be difficult to walk, so he simply cut some lettuce to feed the geese. Off to work.

Jiang Yan stood up slowly after hearing the sound of the door closing.When Cheng Yikuan came over just now, he only closed the door and forgot to lock it. Jiang Yan saw it at that moment, and he was so excited that he was afraid of being discovered, so he lay obediently on his stomach.Now that the person was gone, he stretched his neck and listened carefully again. After confirming that there was no sound outside, he put the goose beak against the side of the sliding door, and then pushed it hard with his wings flapping.

The track of the balcony was very smooth. After Jiang Yan opened it for the first time, he pushed it away with almost no effort.The bedroom hadn't been cleaned up, but it wasn't messy, and the floor was carpeted.Jiang Yan walked up swaggeringly, and suddenly felt like a king occupying the high ground.

He walked back and forth twice inside, squeezed open the door again, went out with his head poking around, and began to explore the new site.

Cheng Yikuan's house is very spacious, the living room is square and bright, with several express boxes piled up, behind the boxes is the fitness area, and on the other side is the guest bedroom.Jiang Yan strolled around to familiarize himself with the terrain, and then went straight to the destination this time - the kitchen.

There are not many things in it, except for a few handfuls of vegetables, it is a box of apples.Jiang Yan searched for a long time but couldn't find anything delicious, so he finally turned his attention to Apple.

That's better than eating lettuce, too.Jiang Yan thought to himself, since he is not a rabbit, he doesn't want to eat lettuce.

He pushed two apples out of the box, kicked them with his feet, and found that they couldn't reach them, so he simply pouted his buttocks and walked back with his mouth.It took a lot of effort for two big apples to push one and drop the other.

Holding back his energy, Jiang Yan pushes it back to the balcony in one go, patrols for another week, and then puts the apple behind the dog bowl and hides it.

The snow didn't know when it stopped.

In the distance was already a small world covered in silver. Jiang Yan was tired from working for a long time, so he sat on the ground to rest.He looked down at the maple leaf pattern he drew, then looked up at the gray sky, and began to feel melancholy.

When can I go back?

He heard the content of Wang Yan's phone call today. According to Wang Yan, it seemed that the Muggles were sick before he came here for the first time.If something happened to Muggles, then Wang Yan must be very sad, right?

Jiang Yan remembered that Zhang Yuanfan had raised a hamster before, and he bought it a few days ago. Just in time for an internal inspection, Zhang Yuanfan hid the hamster on the balcony of the dormitory, but everyone forgot to bring it in that night.Early the next morning, they discovered that the hamster had been frozen to death.

Zhang Yuanfan sat on the balcony all afternoon with red eyes, and Jiang Yan was not feeling well when he was with him.

Wang Yan has raised the big goose for more than a year, and the relationship must be deeper.Jiang Yan couldn't help sighing, praying that the Muggles would be fine, and began to doze against the wall.

It was too cold to ventilate on the balcony, Jiang Yan shivered, looked into the bedroom, and couldn't help but slipped in.

As expected, the room was warm and quiet, and Jiang Yan didn't want to leave when he came in.On another thought, it's still early anyway, so I can catch up on a comfortable sleep first, and go back before Cheng Yikuan comes back.

After he figured it out, he collapsed at the foot of the bed, pulled down a corner of the quilt with his goose beak, covered himself, and then fell asleep comfortably on his belly.

Cheng Yikuan was busy until nightfall before finishing the work at hand, and there was snowflakes outside again. The difference from yesterday was that it was snowing like goose feathers now.

His office has floor-to-ceiling windows. Looking out from here, he can have a panoramic view of half of the city.The neon lights are still shining, and because of the snow cover, the whole city has the feeling of a fairy tale castle.

Jiang Yan likes snow very much.

When Cheng Yikuan first met him, he heard that he moved from the south with his mother.

Of course I don't know more.At that time, the gossip system in the school was underdeveloped, and such things were rarely spread among classmates, and Jiang Yan was not a famous person, he was just an ordinary good student.What's more special, he looks very good-looking.But there were many good-looking and good students in the school at that time, and he was not the only one.

All in all, Cheng Yikuan's first impression of Jiang Yan was that he was very good-looking, very obedient, and wanted to be touched by others, but he was also very ordinary.

Of course, after getting to know each other, Jiang Yan is not so ordinary.

During the school meeting, Cheng Yikuan spoke on stage as a student representative, and every time he scanned the crowd below the podium, he could always find out Jiang Yan's location from among a group of identical red and black school uniforms.

When they go out for activities together, he can always perceive Jiang Yan's various small situations, such as falling behind, laughing out of breath, forgetting to bring water, or chatting with so-and-so very happily...

Cheng Yikuan suspected that there was some strange magical power in Jiang Yan's body, which made him unable to help but pay attention to him.But he didn't want to study it carefully, and was even willing to be enslaved by this magic power.It wasn't until he was about to graduate from the third year of junior high school that he unilaterally ushered in the first separation—it was the last unified exam before the high school entrance examination. His grades were good, so his mother decided to let him go to the experimental middle school in the next city to study in high school.

No one discussed this matter with him, and Cheng's mother didn't notify him one night until the arrangement was almost done.

"Yikuan, the teaching quality and enrollment rate of the Experimental Middle School are the highest in the province. The No. [-] Middle School and No. [-] Middle School here are incomparable. Mom hopes that you can grow and study in a better environment." Mama Cheng said that day, while Examine him and ask, "What do you think yourself?"

Cheng Yikuan never thought of going anywhere else. With a buzz in his mind, he subconsciously looked at his father.

Cheng's father frowned and raised an objection: "Is Yikuan uncomfortable? They are all unfamiliar classmates and environments."

"Why can't you adapt? What's wrong with this?" Cheng's mother asked, "He can adapt to their junior high school. What's wrong with the experimental middle school? Besides, which one is not a new environment when going to No. [-] middle school and No. [-] middle school? Is there any difference?"

Father Cheng said: "Don't get excited, I just said, isn't this No. [-] Middle School able to have old classmates?"

"How many good students can there be in this kind of junior high school?" Cheng's mother frowned, and said coldly, "The more you play chess with the stinky chess basket, the more you play, the worse you get. What's the point of hanging around with those people every day?"

After she finished speaking, she turned her head, her tone was not as kind as before, and she continued to ask Cheng Yikuan: "What do you think?"

Cheng Yikuan looked at his toes silently. After a while, he nodded and said obediently: "I can do it. I heard that there are many talented people in the experimental middle school, and the teaching progress is very fast. I should be brave enough to accept the challenge."

Cheng's mother frowned and rubbed his hair with a smile.

So it's settled.

Cheng Yikuan was afraid of his mother.Although they hadn't met much, and the latter had never physically punished him, he still had a natural fear of her.This made him submit to her wishes again and again.

This time he also surrendered, only to try to resist after the fact.

About three or four days later, Cheng Yikuan returned home with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

He waited until midnight, when he heard the door being opened, and then went to the bathroom pretending to be in a daze.Cheng's mother was changing shoes at the door, and she was stunned when she saw the wound on his cheek.She stopped him sharply and asked him what was going on.

Cheng Yikuan hesitated, and finally confessed that he had fought with someone.

"They said that I would definitely not go to No. [-] Middle School." Cheng Yikuan lowered his head and said, "They also said... that you usually put on a good dress, but this time you will definitely reveal your truth and use your power for personal gain to get me to a good school."

Cheng's mother was stunned, and after a while she asked him with a livid face, "Who said this?"

"They all said that, I don't know how to pass it on." Cheng Yikuan lowered his head, grabbed the hem of his clothes with his fingers, trying not to tremble, "I know my mother is not like this, they are slandering, so I fought with them. "

At that time, he had inquired that the experimental high school only accepted transfers caused by transfer of parents and transfer of household registration, and all procedures went through the Education Bureau.Cheng Yikuan's grades are good enough, although an exception can be made, but with his mother's relationship, this kind of exception is easy to attract people's imagination.

And at that time, the mother was facing an important competition.

Mother Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, walked half a circle in the living room with her hips on her hips, and said nothing.

Cheng Yikuan was in a panic.He waited for a few more days, and finally had a second conversation.

"Yikuan, after thinking about it, mom thinks it's not impossible to go to No. [-] Middle School." She frowned in confusion, looked away, and asked her son, "But the conditions over there are worse, and the environment is not good... What about you, what do you think?"

Cheng Yikuan suppressed the excitement in his heart, and talked in the way his mother liked: "Experimental middle school is naturally good, but No. [-] middle school is not without its merits. What's more, the ancients said that those who make great things are not only those who are beyond the world. If you are talented, you must also have perseverance. If No. [-] High School is a challenge, then I should sharpen my will.”

Mother Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at him guiltily.

Cheng Yikuan was promoted to No. [-] Middle School as he wished.

Before Jiang Yan came, he often thought, what if Jiang Yan went to another school?His mother is also very good to him, right?

A year later, freshmen enter school.

Cheng Yikuan and the others had been taking exams that day.He waited until the evening self-study, and then ran to the display boards in the front building to look for Jiang Yan's name one by one. Fortunately, he found it.

Another day, he saw Jiang Yan go to the school doctor's office, so he immediately asked the teacher for leave, went back to the dormitory and changed into a new school uniform, and then went to the school doctor's office to go shopping as if nothing had happened.

He bought a dozen boxes of watermelon cream.

He had a cool and handsome opening line in mind.

He heard someone call softly on the camp bed next to him: "Senior?"
