Chapter 41 Venomous Tongue Parrot
  "Am I handsome, little beauty?" the parrot showed off while flying, chirping non-stop.

It's just that there are only a few sentences going back and forth, so it seems that the language system is not very complete.

Mrs. Cheng and Cheng Yishen also finished checking their accounts, packed their things, and went to find Pei Shao.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw a parrot running rampant in the house.

The two were stunned.

Seeing another person coming, the colorful parrot became even more excited and raised its wings to say hello.

"Hi there, big beauty, good evening, big beauty!"

Mrs. Cheng blushed a little after being praised by a bird, and her impression of the bird improved a lot.

Cheng Yishen reached out and grabbed the parrot's tail feathers.

The parrot squawked twice and turned around to peck him, but Cheng Yishen hurriedly dodged it.

After escaping from the shackles, the parrot stood on the table and yelled at Cheng Yishen: "You idiot! Big fool! Big fool! Stupid! After eating the heart of a bear, the leopard dares to pull the feathers of your great master!"

The corners of Cheng Yishen's mouth twitched.

Pei Shao also didn't expect that this parrot would have such a dirty mouth when it came to scolding people.

She tried to communicate with the parrot.

"what's your name?"

The parrot stood proudly on the corner of the table, preening its feathers gracefully and speaking proudly.

"I won't change my name when I'm walking, and I won't change my surname when I sit down. Your Majesty, the King, is here——"

Pei Shao reacted for a while before he realized that it had named himself King.

Pei Shao's mouth twitched.

A colorful bird called King...it doesn't fit.

The king kept chirping in the room. Cheng Yishen tried to communicate with it, but it spat all over his face.

"Why don't you...come with me?" Pei Shao looked at the parrot silently. He really didn't know what to do and could only invite it.

"Oh?" The king tilted his head, rolled his eyes as big as mung beans, made a sound, and flew into the air.

"You want the king to go home with you - don't look at how much you weigh!"

Flying, it started shouting again.

"I'm hungry - Your Majesty is hungry -"

There was nothing to eat in the room, so Pei Shao took out two lychees from his pocket, peeled them and put them on the table.

The king immediately flew over, pecked the lychee into his mouth with lightning speed, and then spit out the core.

The bird that had been dismissive just now changed its attitude immediately and landed on Pei Shao's shoulder with a flattering tone.

"Little beauty, let's go home, little beauty~"

"The king keeps his word. From now on, life is your bird and death is your ghost!"

With quick eyes and quick hands, Cheng Yishen grabbed its wings and pulled it off Pei Shao's shoulders.

"Let's go, Shao Shao, curfew will be in a while, we have to get back home as soon as possible."

The king kept screaming in his hand and tried to peck the back of his hand. Cheng Yishen mercilessly tied his wings with something and then threw him back into Pei Shao's arms with a somewhat disgusted tone.

"Where did this smelly bird come from? I've never seen anyone keep a parrot."

His mouth still smelled so bad, Cheng Yishen added silently.

"It just flew here from outside." Pei Shao was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say, so he could only make an excuse.

She secretly covered the king's mouth with her sleeve to stop him from making any sound. The group of people drove the carriage, and those who hurried slowly returned to the house before the curfew.

Mrs. Cheng had not rested yet and was waiting for several people in the room.

After Pei Qianyue's treatment, Mr. Cheng has gotten better recently.

Now I can lean on a soft chair, my waking hours are getting longer and longer every day, and I can occasionally speak a few words.

"Father? Mother?" Mrs. Cheng saw the two old men as soon as she stepped into the door, "Why haven't you rested yet? How long has it been?"

Mrs. Cheng had a smile on her face, waved her hands, and said nonchalantly: "I am happy today, but I will rest soon. Why are you back now?"

The slumped old man on the side also said: "An Bai?"

Probably because he hasn't spoken for a long time, Mr. Cheng's voice is a little hoarse, but it is much better than before.

"Can daddy talk now?"

"Qian Yue came here again today and gave your father an injection. Now he can speak a few words, but he still doesn't speak smoothly."

Mrs. Cheng became more and more pleasantly surprised. She wheeled her wheelchair and moved to the old lady's side, explaining: "The shop opened by Shao Shao and my eldest brother, I originally thought it was a small business, but I didn't expect the business to be so good."

As she spoke, she sighed: "My eldest brother is indeed a born business person, and with Shao Shao's novelty, even the Queen Mother is proud of him."

When it comes to this, Cheng is also a little surprised.

She originally thought that the Queen Mother would just order her maid to send him a gift. Even so, her trip to the palace was not in vain.

Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother went there in person, and I heard that she stayed in the shop for a long time.

When I left, I also praised the things sold in the shop.

Mrs. Cheng said, with a smile on her eyes.

The mother and daughter were talking, and the conversation unconsciously turned to Cheng Yunchi again.

"Mom hasn't told me yet, why did fifth brother suddenly become Nalaoshizi's envoy?" Speaking of this, Mrs. Cheng was still a little puzzled.

Mrs. Cheng's eyes flashed unconsciously. She was about to be vague, but she felt something was wrong, so she could only give a few vague explanations.

"You five and six brothers have been working outside these years. You even went to Beique for two years before. Maybe you did something that caught the attention of the nobles in Beique."

Although this explanation was reasonable, Cheng felt that something was wrong.

She really couldn't figure out what was wrong, so she could only respond in a dull voice and temporarily accepted the answer.

"It's approaching the New Year these days," the old lady sighed: "It's easy to get into trouble in the capital. I don't know if you and your children want to go to the Hegong Night Banquet. It's better to stay at home these days and go out less often." .”

Mrs. Cheng smiled and felt that the old lady was worrying unfoundedly.

"Now that I have made peace with the Marquis of Wu'an, where can I go to the royal palace banquet?"

When there was no reconciliation, Marquis Wu'an was still a marquis, and she went to the Hegong Night Banquet every year.

The seating order at palace banquets is always based on status, but every time her seat is basically at the end of the table.

The kind where you can't even see the faces of the emperor and queen clearly.

Moreover, the palace banquet was long and boring, so she was glad that she could finally have some leisure time this year.

The old lady sighed.

"Your father's illness is almost healed now. Our Cheng family's roots are not in the capital, and I'm afraid he will have to go back soon."

The old lady said, with a hint of melancholy in her tone.

"Mother? Why is it so sudden?" Mrs. Cheng was a little surprised and asked anxiously: "Didn't you say you wanted to settle in the capital at the beginning? Why did you say you wanted to go back again? It's so sudden?"

No matter how she asked, the old lady said nothing more and kept driving her to rest.
