: Cicada shells for popsicles

"Hey, hey, hey...Afu and Shou, what are you two doing? Come down quickly."

Encountering the energetic little boy, the two colorful tigers could only retreat. When they were tired from playing, they climbed directly onto the bed next to the tiger cage and animal pen.

When Chen Ling saw this scene, he hurriedly stopped him, but the two fools were not willing to listen. After climbing up, they arched their heads on the bed, turned sideways, and lay down with their backs spread out.

Close your eyes comfortably, I can't hear what you say.

This is the disadvantage of being enlightened.

He knows how to get close to people, but he likes to act like a child.

"His grandma is disobedient, right?"

Seeing that the two single beds were overwhelmed by the tiger, and the mosquito nets were crushed, Chen Ling walked over angrily, raised his hand and slapped them.

These two beds are used for guarding tigers here at night. They are covered with mats, pillows, and mosquito nets. They are clean.

As a result, two tigers tortured me like this. They just played in the water and fell on the bed covered in mud and water. This guy couldn't get the two things on the bed.

Can Chen Ling not be angry?

He was not used to them, so he went up and gave them a few slaps.

But the two tigers were tortured by Ruirui's head. They were tired and sleepy. The key point was that they couldn't resist at all and could only endure it. Now they lay down on the bed and suddenly felt really comfortable.

When Chen Ling hit them, they just squinted their eyes, exposed their wet bellies, hugged his arms with their front legs, and purred to prevent him from moving.

Chen Ling was helpless for a while.

"It's true that these two little tigers have changed drastically since they came to your place. In just a few days, they have begun to crawl on the bed like humans."

Xiao Li couldn't help but laugh when he saw that Chen Ling was finally deflated.

Now these two guys are still not wild or ferocious, which makes them feel relieved and they are now ready to tease Chen Ling.

Liu Jiancheng and Liu Jiancheng also walked over with smiles and looked at this novel scene.

Not to mention the little kids, they screamed with excitement again.

Chen Ling also knew that these two guys saw him sleeping on the bed at night and wanted to climb up in the morning. He didn't let him go, and after a few words of instruction, he climbed up.

"Climbing into bed is a trivial matter. The key is to make things messy and completely useless."

Chen Ling said with a dark face.

If the single bed I made wasn't big enough and strong enough, it wouldn't have been able to withstand the tossing of these two tigers and it would have fallen apart.

This was also the first time he felt that tigers were really not something ordinary people could raise.

It's still impossible to keep these big cats at home. Let's not talk about whether they can be kept at home. The key areas are too small, and the things in the house cannot withstand their harm.

Next, this feeling becomes even more profound.

When Chen Ling and his family were having dinner, they were roaring outside and couldn't stay away from people.

Good guy, can it be a trivial matter if the tiger barks?

There was a lot of chaos outside the farm, and the dogs in the village were trembling and afraid to make a sound.

Chen Ling had no choice but to bring them home, but after a while, he and the dog grabbed a piece of chicken bone and overturned the table.

After a while, I went to tease the little cat with my paws.

Although the little tabby cat is just a mountain raccoon, it has become accustomed to them in the past two days. When it was annoyed, it would greet the tiger directly with its paws in the face.

While saying hello, he barked fiercely.

The two tigers were driven away and ran around the farm, knocking over countless things along the way.

After getting into trouble one after another, the two guys knew they had done something wrong, and looked at Chen Ling pitifully with their big cat faces drooping in aggrievedness.

Chen Ling had nowhere to vent his anger.

I thought to myself, I shouldn't have enlightened these two fools. I thought Heiwa Xiaojin was like this back then, and it took three or four months for his temper to get better.

When I was still a puppy, I didn’t feel much.

But in the case of two sub-adult tigers that are almost the size of adult tigers, it would be a disaster.

"Fortunately, I have to leave tomorrow, otherwise I wouldn't dare to fight, and scolding would be of no use. It would be really frustrating."

After getting over their fresh energy, the two tigers became like little bears, causing headaches for the old man and his wife in the family.

But this will soon no longer be the case.

A tiger's happy time is short-lived.

They set out on their way back to the zoo the next day.

I didn't even get to see Chen Ling when I left.

Chen Ling also didn't see the two tigers, like two little babies, feeling aggrieved and panicked in the cage, roaring and reluctant to leave.

He was called to the village by Wang Jusheng early in the morning.

It was said that Wang Qingwen called the village from Fenglei Town and asked Wang Jusheng to send a message saying that Wang Cunye's cousin was gone and asked the old man to rush back as soon as possible.

Come on.

There is nothing anyone can do if something like this happens.

Chen Ling didn't even eat breakfast, so she got on her motorcycle and drove her father-in-law and sister-in-law to Fenglei Town.

Arrive early and return to the village early.

Gao Xiulan had to take care of Wang Susu and couldn't go back.

So Wang Zhenzhen should also go back with him.

After all, we are a family. If we have one more person back, we will look better.

After arriving at Fenglei Town, Chen Ling did not rush back that day and stayed at Yaowang Village for a day.

Mainly because besides the funeral, Wang Qingzhong was too excited.

He made a lot of money from those defective clothes. He only went to the store twice and almost half of them were sold. This greatly increased his confidence and he has already started to find people to work on them.

The couple pulled Chen Ling and talked about this and that.

Naturally, the words of gratitude to one's own family will not be expressed out loud, as this would appear to be inappropriate.

He just said that when Su Su would give birth to a baby, she would ask her two sisters-in-law to come over and help take care of her.

Chen Ling smiled knowingly and didn't say much.

He knows the character of his two brothers-in-law better than anyone else, and he can trust them better than anyone else.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be willing to reach out and give him a hand.

Mentioned in front of Wang Cunye many times.

But Wang Qingzhong could not change his mind before. He was afraid of losing money and being cheated. He was afraid of this and that. This was the most terrible thing.

Fortunately, the idea Chen Ling gave him was not a big step.

It is also relatively simple and reliable to do.

It can be said that it is very suitable for people with little experience like them.

As for selling grain to earn a price difference, the gap is still a bit big, and the effort is not focused on one place.

After Chen Ling hurried home, she told her daughter-in-law and her mother-in-law that they were both happy for the two brothers.

…

"I'm selling popsicles, white sugar mung bean popsicles, cicada shells for popsicles."

As soon as ten o'clock in the morning, the sound of selling popsicles started to sound in the village. They were either middle-aged men in red vests or old men in straw hats.

As soon as they hear the cries, all the little kids in the village will huff and puff around them.

Each carried a cloth bag or a bag cut from a urea bag, took out the cicada shells they had accumulated, and exchanged them for popsicles.

A popsicle costs five cents.

But after this year, prices soared, and five cents suddenly seemed worthless.

It's only a dime or two, and even five cents is not that rare. Let's talk about it alone.

Fortunately, little kids don’t have to worry about whether it’s ten cents or five cents, they can just exchange it for cicada shells.

As soon as Chen Ling came out of the village yard with Rui Rui in her arms, she met Liu Nier and the others gathered around an old man's car, exchanging popsicles.

My father-in-law and my sister-in-law went back.

Naturally, he has to do the daily work of herding sheep and raising children.

Don’t forget to feed the birds and pigeons raised in the village yard.
