Chapter 209 Buying Fish and Pretense

The siblings Xiao Qi and Xiao Lin returned home, and Xiao Xiao suddenly felt that the surroundings were much quieter.

Xiao Xiao couldn't help laughing at those two noisy guys.

However, summer vacation is almost over.

I always feel like a lot happened this summer.

Maybe it’s because I encountered a lot of monsters?

"Chirp~"

The pigeon flew in happily, its feathers of dark blue and emerald green sparkling in the sun, and its emerald eyes were like top-grade emeralds, with a strange clarity that seemed unreal.

"Good morning, pigeon."

"Chirp~"

The pigeon stopped on the table and barked a few times happily in response to Xiao Xiao's greeting, its voice gentle and pleasant.

……

Xiao Xiao watched with interest as Owl gave his routine good morning greetings to every monster in the house.

Soon, Xiao Xiao's familiar voices of conversation were heard in the house.

"Chirp~"

"Giggle~"

"啾啾~啾啾~"

“Chuckle~Chuckle~”

……

Even though this scene had been happening every day during this period, Xiao Xiao still found it hard not to laugh.

These two monsters are really interesting.

Are they sure they are on the same channel?

But maybe he was the one who didn't understand? Xiao Xiao shook his head slightly, a smile on his face.

……

The pearl fish was lazy and a little indifferent, but it still gave the pigeon a responsive look.

The red carp didn't even open his eyes.

Chiyu had no good face towards this stupid monster that came to disturb its sleep every day.

……

The two monsters, Feifei and Taotie, acted like "big guys" and glanced at a pigeon that was smiling foolishly with a condescending look.

The gull didn't care at all, as if he had received a response, his emerald eyes exuding a bright aura.

Looking at Xiao Xiao, he couldn't help but reach out and touch the little monster's head.

What a silly and sweet little monster.

I don't know whether to say that he is stupid, slow-witted, or naive.

Regardless, it's a cute little guy.

"Chirp~"

The pigeon's round eyes curved into crescent shapes and rubbed Xiao Xiao's palm.

……

There is only a little over a week left of summer vacation.

Xiao Xiao was helping out in the teahouse.

However, what made Xiao Xiao helpless was that many familiar tea drinkers liked to ask him how he found Mr. Zhou's grandson, and also teased or praised him.

To this, Xiao Xiao always said, "Lucky."

In fact, everyone knows that finding the baby was just Xiao Xiao's good luck, right?
It's just because I was personally involved in this incident, so I can't help but talk about it.

The ups and downs of the incident inevitably made them feel a little emotional.

The final hanppy ending made them talk about it with gusto.

This kind of news, which they had only seen in newspapers and on the news, was now actually happening around them. It was also quite interesting to see Xiao Xiao dealing with their questions with a helpless look on his face.

Who can blame this kid for looking so mature since he was young? Although he is young, he is as leisurely as old men like them.

It was rare to see the child showing a different expression, and they were quite curious and had a lot of fun playing.

Xiao Xiao: ...

What a bunch of old kids.

……

The long summer vacation seemed to end in just a moment.

When realizing that school will start tomorrow, everyone will sigh: Time flies so fast, why is today the last day of summer vacation?
……

Xiao Xiao decided to leave the pearl beetle and the red carp at home. Anyway, there was still a black light emperor in the fish tank, so he just asked his mother to help feed it. At most, the black light emperor had a big appetite.

Besides, if he takes all the monsters away, won’t the owl be lonely?

The pigeon that comes to say hello every morning, and smiles without a trace of gloom even when being ignored, is actually a monster that really likes being in a lively atmosphere, right?

It’s just… the mullet gets along best with the pigeons… why don’t he go buy another fish?
The more I thought about it, the more I thought this was a good idea.

That afternoon, Xiao Xiao took a taxi to the flower and bird market and found the store where he bought the emperor black lantern and the pearl fish last time.

The owner actually still remembered him.

"Hey, little brother, you're here again."

The owner greeted us warmly.

“Buying fish again?”

"Could it be the Emperor Black Light I bought last time..."

"No, it's good."

“It’s just that I want to buy another one.”

"Ohh, one fish is pretty boring isn't it?"

"Little brother, why don't you buy a few more?"

"I recommend some fish that are easy to raise. They are easy to raise and cheap."

"No, I don't have a fish tank that big, nor do I have that much energy. I can just buy another one."

"Sure, whatever you like, little brother."

"Are there any fish you want?"

"No, how about giving me another Emperor Black Light?"

"Oh, what a coincidence! I just sold out of the Emperor Black Lantern and was thinking of getting more in a few days."

"Any other fish you recommend?"

Xiao Xiao didn't care. His original intention was just to find a cover-up for the minnow.

"How about this golden card?"

"It is also a top-quality tetra that is not inferior to the emperor black tetra."

"Little brother, take a look, isn't it nice?"

Xiao Xiao looked in the direction the shopkeeper's hand was holding and saw a small fish with a light golden body. Under the light, it looked somewhat translucent and dreamy. It was indeed a very beautiful tetra.

"And the color of this golden cocker gets more beautiful as it grows."

"Little brother, you will never regret buying it."

"Well, that's it."

Xiao Xiao placed the order promptly.

"Okay, little brother, that's great."

The shop owner smiled and said, "Then I will charge you the same price for this fish as the King Black Lantern you bought last time, 100 yuan. How about that?"

"Ah."

Xiao Xiao nodded, "Then shopkeeper, please help me install it."

"Okay, okay."

The owner happily went to get the net bag to catch the fish, then suddenly seemed to think of something, turned around and asked Xiao Xiao, "Little brother, do you want to catch it yourself? Or?" The owner pointed at himself, or should he do it himself?

"The owner, just help me fish it out."

Xiao Xiao was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile.

Last time, because he wanted to smuggle some "private goods", Xiao Xiao insisted on catching the fish himself.

This time, Xiao Xiao started observing the fish in each fish tank when he entered the store. Even when he was talking to the owner and looking at the Golden Cocker Spade, Xiao Xiao was looking around unobtrusively to see if he could find another monster.
Unfortunately, nothing was found.

Therefore, there was naturally no need for him to catch fish himself.

……

"Okay, little brother, keep your fish."

"OK, thanks."

"Oh, little brother, I should thank you for taking care of my business."

"If you encounter any problems in fish farming in the future, you can send me a text message or call me to ask me."

"Ah."

"Goodbye."

"Goodbye, little brother. See you next time."
