Lao Wang has a pair of children. Twenty years ago, both his children were admitted to the university. After graduation, he was assigned to work in other places, married and rarely came back once a year. Since then, Lao Wang has lived a life where one person is not hungry and the whole family is full. But at that time, Lao Wang was in class, and he was also a small section chief in the unit. He is always busy and never idle. Although he has been single for 20 years, he never feels lonely.
After retirement, Lao Wang felt uncomfortable and no one spoke for a day. It's really uncomfortable
Once, Lao Wang was bored, so he went to the bird market once and met Lao Sunman, who was very familiar with him. After the greeting, Lao Sunman understood Lao Wang's "distress" and suggested that he buy a parrot. Lao Wang asked Lao Sunman if there were any parrots to buy in this bird market. "It seems not! If there is, it is just some' bad goods'. " Lao Sunman replied like this, and then said, "If you really want one, I can buy one for you, but the price …" Before Lao Sunman finished, Lao Wang said, "Money is not a problem! As long as I can buy a smart and active parrot who understands people and is willing to nag me, I will spend more money. After listening to Lao Wang's words, Mr. Sun began to analyze the current price of parrots ... Lao Wang agreed without saying anything.
Three days later, old Sunman called and said, "I found a parrot for you. This parrot is absolutely first-class, and you will be satisfied. The price hasn't changed, just ... "Lao Sunman said here and stopped. After all, Lao Wang has lived for decades and has not experienced those ups and downs; Social changes, people floating, not for money. He knew that old Sunman wanted "hard work". So, just ask: how much? On the other end of the phone: "Not much! Just one, a large one. " Lao Wang thought: you are too cruel! I want to go back to my hometown, but because I have reached an agreement with others, I really want to raise a parrot to relieve boredom, so I agreed.
Lao Wang saw the parrot and was very satisfied with its spirit and intelligence. The parrot met the old queen and was very kind. It kept calling, "Hello, Uncle Wang! Hello, Uncle Wang! ..... "This made Lao Wang even happier.
After Lao Wang paid Lao Sunman, he walked around the bird market several times, bought a new bird cage and replaced the old one. Then, he took the new birdcage and took the parrot home.
It was nearly noon when I got home. Lao Wang hangs the new birdcage on the parrot, and then prepares bird food and his own lunch.
After a busy period of time, I finally got the food ready. Lao Wang put the bird food in the cage first, and then went back to the house for lunch. While eating, Lao Wang thought: now, let the parrot eat and sleep; Let it get familiar with the flowers and plants here in the afternoon; Give it a bath at night, let it eat well and have a good rest; Talk to it tomorrow.
The next day, Lao Wang got up early. He was afraid that the parrot would not wake up, so he made breakfast first after washing. When breakfast was ready, Lao Wang walked to the yard outside the door with bird food and shouted, "Parrot, parrot, breakfast!" " "No response ... Lao Wang went to the crowd, and when he saw it, it was wrong! The parrot is here. Why was bird food there yesterday? Lao Wang thought, is it-the bird food I cooked not to the taste of parrots? Look at the parrot again-the spirit of yesterday is gone forever. Ask the parrot three or five times, but the parrot just doesn't answer. Helpless, Lao Wang went to the bird market and bought the parrot's favorite corn mixed with coriander.
The corn grain has been kept in the chaff of the bird cage all morning, and it has not moved. "What is this?" Lao Wang wondered, "Isn't the parrot sick?"
For several days, parrots still eat very little. Lao Wang cares about his parrot like a small patient, but the parrot's "condition" has not improved. This makes Lao Wang very worried. How can it go on like this? !
On this day, Lao Wang stood by the birdcage, thinking thoughtfully ... Then he picked up his mobile phone and dialed the number. Hearing the sound of the bugle, the parrot knew that it was for Lao Sunman, so he quickly said, "Hang up! You are not allowed to call old Sunman. " The parrot finally spoke. Lao Wang was naturally very happy and immediately asked, "Why not call him Lao Sunman?" The parrot asked, "Do you want to send me to Old Sunman?" Lao Wang replied: "I do have this idea. No, I was just about to call him. " The parrot asked, "Why?" Lao Wang said, "You just came to see me, and you are not used to it. You are not used to it, and it is easy to get sick. I want to send you to Old Sunman for a few days, and I'll pick you up after you recover. " Hearing this, the parrot shouted, "No, old Sunman is too bad!" " "Listening to the parrot's roar, Lao Wang stood there. The parrot went on to say, "I bought it from another bird dealer for 80 yuan the year before last. Because he never found a good buyer, I stayed in his birdcage. "He often doesn't give me food or drink, and he often beats me. That day, you paid me 588 yuan, and I was very energetic. This is fake. If I don't do that, old Sunman will kill me and punish me for not sleeping or eating for three days. " Oh! I see, but Lao Wang still doesn't understand. He asked the parrot doubtfully, "I will give you a new cage, a good place to live, cook for you and give you the best food." Am I good to you? ! Why did you ignore me instead? The parrot said a little sadly, "through getting along these days, I know you are a good man and a great man." "Actually, I'd like to get along with you and nag you, but …" The parrot choked here. Lao Wang comforted him and said, "Don't be sad, it's all right now! Now that you are with me, old Sunman can't bully you any more! If you have any requirements or ideas, just let me know. " "I don't know." At this time, the parrot was a little embarrassed, but still said, "I bought it at a high price." How can I have wild thoughts? " The old king said, "Who is right and who is wrong? Just say what you think. " "I said, you won't agree." Said the parrot. "I will do it for you as long as I can." Lao Wang said. Seeing Lao Wang's sincerity, the parrot was very moved and cried and said, "I have been locked in a cage for four or five years." I wonder if my parents are still alive? " I don't know if my brothers and sisters are doing well. Are they locked in a birdcage like me? Uncle Wang, I know you are a good man. I want you to let me go back to nature, to my parents, to play, play, sing and dance with my brothers and sisters ... I will come to see you every day and nag you. If you like, I will bring my kind to see you. "After listening to the parrot, Lao Wang felt a little sad and felt sorry for the parrot. Lao Wang reached out and opened the birdcage. He said to the parrot, "I'll let you go. You should be free. You can go now. "Free! The parrot couldn't control his excitement, threw himself into Lao Wang's arms and said gratefully, "Thank you, Uncle Wang! I said I would come to see you tomorrow. "So, the parrot flew away happily and flew to the place where it should go.
Early the next morning, the parrot really kept his promise and came to Lao Wang's house. It seems that parrots are much more energetic and lively. After nagging for two hours, the parrot went back.
On the third day, the parrot came again, just a little late. Lao Wang nagged the parrot a few words and found that the parrot was unhappy and absent-minded, as if he had something on his mind. Then, Lao Wang asked, "What's the matter?" The parrot replied, "Nothing! Just a little tired. " Lao Wang gave a "Oh" after hearing this, and then told the parrot to go back to rest early.
Two days later, the parrot came again. Lao Wang saw the parrot and asked with concern, "Do you feel better?" The parrot faltered and didn't answer directly. Lao Wang looked at the parrot carefully, only to see that the parrot was dejected and despondent, feeling that it had not been a good day these days! Look at its prevarication, there must be something wrong! So Lao Wang forced the parrot to tell the truth
The parrot said, "When I first got back, everyone was very happy when they saw me. They welcome me and bring me anything delicious and useful. " At this point, the parrot's eyes began to get wet and continued: "I learned later that they didn't even have enough food." Lao Wang was puzzled and asked, "What is that?" The parrot sighed and said, "You don't know-the mountains are either occupied by humans or destroyed by humans." Either someone infected it or someone "transformed" it. We birds have no food to find ... some starve to death, some freeze to death, and some are caught by humans and kept in cages for their entertainment. "The parrot continued sadly," No, yesterday and the day before yesterday, I searched for two whole days, but I couldn't find a grain of food. Later, I was chased by those mountain people for a while and almost lost my life. "Hearing this, Lao Wang also became sad and sighed:" The sadness of birds is made by human beings; The sorrow of mankind is of its own making. Lao Wang then said to the parrot, "Although I only have meager food here, it's better than nothing!"! "You'd better come to my house for dinner. You are still free to come and go. If you have time to nag me, it doesn't matter if you don't nag me Anyway, I can grow flowers and grass. "
On this day, the parrot didn't return to his companion, but stayed and nagged Lao Wang for the middle of the night. Then they all fell asleep and slept soundly. Sleeping in the depths, both Pharaoh and parrot had a dream: they dreamed that they would nag, be happy and be happy together forever. ...
