Chapter 3146 The Rooster, I'm Sorry
Robin's smartwatch rang for a long time, and the little girl deliberately didn't answer it. She even stared at the ringing watch and chuckled, but just wouldn't pick it up.
Dunzi leaned closer and glanced at her watch, noticing the number "66" on it. He asked, "Robin, why aren't you answering Liuliu's calls?"
Robin looked up at him and grinned: "I'll answer it later."
Liu Liu hung up the phone.
Dunzi said, "Liuliu is dead."
Robin laughed and said, "She'll call again."
As soon as I finished speaking, the smartwatch rang again, displaying "66".
Robin said smugly, "Look, Dudu's here."
Dunzi glanced at the little girl, shook his head, and walked away. He couldn't understand how city kids could play so well; Liuliu would be furious if she knew.
Robin stared at her smartwatch for a while, and just as Liuli was about to hang up again, she answered and immediately complained, "Liuliu, I'm so busy! We're cleaning! What are you doing?"
Liuliu was going to spray Robin, but he hasn't answered his mother's call for so long. Is he upside down? Is his bottom itchy?
Upon hearing Robin's words, he asked curiously why.
For her, cleaning is such a rare thing; she wasn't born to clean.
Robin then went on and on about cleaning up the dust, explaining that the whole village was doing the same.
Liuliu found it amazing and asked Robin if he could come to Pujiang to clean her house as well.
Robin: "..."
"What about all those food photos you took earlier? Let me see what they are." Liu Liu finally revealed her purpose.
A single photo of a tribute item is enough to easily win her over.
Robin ran to the image of the Kitchen God, pointed the video call at the offerings on the stove, and introduced each one to Liuliu.
"Hey, who's that portrait?" Liu Liu noticed the Kitchen God.
"It's the Kitchen God."
"who is it?"
"The Kitchen God".
Who is the Kitchen God?
"They are our ancestors."
"..."
Liuliu really disliked talking to Robin on the phone because the kid was clueless and couldn't explain many things clearly. She couldn't explain what the Kitchen God was, nor could she explain why we worshipped the Kitchen God. Most importantly, she couldn't explain what the specific offerings were.
She insisted on giving the phone to Xi'er so she could speak with her.
Xi'er could barely keep up with her intelligence and communicate on an equal footing.
Robin reluctantly handed the phone watch to Xi'er. She wanted to tease Liuliu a little longer; honestly, Liuliu looked down on her! Humph~
Liuliu quickly learned the whole situation, then hurriedly hung up the phone and ran to find Zhu's mother to show her the photos of the Kitchen God and the offerings.
"what?"
"The ritual to worship the Kitchen God is done like this."
"We don't have this custom here."
"It's never wrong to be overly polite. Do we eat at home? If we do, then it's up to the Kitchen God to decide."
"But we don't have this custom in our family."
"You're ungrateful!!! Can you sing 'A Grateful Heart'? It's a song written by Boss Zhang, 'A Grateful Heart,' thank you for being there, accompanying me throughout my life..."
"Stop singing! Stop! Singing!!!"
"Do you worship the Kitchen God?"
Just as Zhu Xiaojing was about to refuse, she heard Liuliu say anxiously, "Mommy Zhu, Mommy Zhu! Don't talk nonsense! Shh!!! Don't say no, the Kitchen God will be unhappy if he hears you."
Zhu Xiaojing: "Why do you want to worship the Kitchen God so much?"
She stared at Liuliu suspiciously, wondering what the child was up to. She didn't believe that Liuliu was advocating for the worship of the Kitchen God out of politeness.
"Because I have a grateful heart, I have to worship the Kitchen God to eat. We are able to eat our fill thanks to the Kitchen God's blessing."
"Is that right?"
Liu Liu felt a little uneasy under her gaze, but she absolutely couldn't show any weakness. She said solicitously, "Offer sacrifices to the Kitchen God, offer sacrifices to the Kitchen God, offer sacrifices to the Kitchen God~"
It remains to be seen whether Liuliu can persuade Zhu's mother. Meanwhile, in Baijia Village, the dust control work has reached a fever pitch.
Xi'er and Dunzi were both helping out, but Robin was like a street urchin, wandering around everywhere. After calling Liuliu, he called Dudu.
She told Dudu about the current work situation, saying that everyone was very busy.
Dudu was very interested when she heard this. After learning a little about it, she couldn't wait to go and lend a hand. This vast world is truly full of opportunities.
However, they had already done a thorough cleaning yesterday. Because they usually pay great attention to hygiene, their house is always kept very clean. There wasn't much work to do yesterday, and soon there was nothing left to sweep. Dudu had to put away the robot vacuum cleaner, otherwise, if the robot vacuum cleaner did all the work, what would she do?
She was against buying a robot vacuum cleaner in the first place, but her father bought it without asking her opinion. She studied it for a day and figured it out. From then on, she was the one who operated the robot vacuum cleaner.
After a morning of cleaning, the house was finally spotless. Xi'er took Robin to Dunzi's house, saying they were going to help the rooster clean the chicken coop.
Walking along the ridge of the field, Robin muttered to himself, naggingly instructing Dunzi: "You must lock up the rooster first, it's not safe at all if you don't."
"I'll call you back after I'm locked up."
"That's more like it. Do you need to clean your pigsty?"
"You want to clean?"
Do you have any piglets?
"No."
"Then let's not clean it."
When the group arrived at Dunzi's house, his parents had already finished cleaning. The garbage was piled up in the yard and they were burning it.
Dunzi first ran to lock up the rooster, and then called Xier and Robin over. Together they dragged the chicken coop out, pulled out the straw inside, and a stench wafted out.
Everyone covered their noses. Xi'er said, "It stinks! No wonder the rooster is in a bad mood and always likes to bite people, living here all day long."
Robin wholeheartedly agreed: "The rooster can't sleep every day, it doesn't sleep at all in the morning, it crows and disturbs everyone, I wouldn't be able to sleep either."
"We help it clean up, so it should thank us."
"Don't bite us next time you see us!"
"Huh? There are two eggs here."
"Hiahia, I saw it too, I'll take it."
Robin happily found two eggs in the chicken coop, which felt slippery in his hand.
"How can a rooster lay eggs? What the teacher taught us was wrong."
“These were laid by the old hen,” Dunzi said.
Robin asked curiously, "Does the old hen also live in the chicken coop?"
Dunzi explained, "They and the rooster are family... family chickens."
Robin secretly rejoiced, clutching the two eggs in his hands, wondering if they would hatch into chicks.
The group worked together to throw all the straw in the chicken coop into the fire, then found some more and lined the coop with it. At Robin's suggestion, Dunzi went home and got a bottle of floral water, which he then sprayed onto the chicken coop.
Meanwhile, Dunzi's mother discovered that the rooster had been locked up and was scratching around anxiously.
She didn't know that Dunzi and the others had done it, so she simply let the rooster out and went back to the kitchen to continue cooking.
Like a dragon returning to the sea, the rooster leaped out, and soon the panicked shouts of several children could be heard in the yard.
Dunzi and Xier ran home immediately. The rooster didn't chase after them, but instead chased after Robin, who had eggs in his hand.
Robin screamed in terror, his feet seemingly spinning on fire wheels as he desperately fled in all directions, shouting, "99 me, 99 me~~~"
Fortunately, she had experience and didn't foolishly run back home, where there was a long stretch of road with no way to avoid it, only a dead end.
She paced around in the yard, almost bursting into tears.
Dunzi and Xier shouted for her to run over here, but Robin had no chance at all. She could only run further and further away, and was finally blocked by the rooster under the wall.
She put the eggs in her pocket and climbed the wall, the same spot where they had watched the pig slaughter last time.
The rooster, seeing this, was no longer in a hurry and slowly approached.
Robin felt like crying. He quickly took the eggs out of his pocket and carefully placed them on the ground: "Here, here, they're yours, all of them are yours. I don't want them, I found them..."
