There were quite a number of children who signed up for the care group. Those who raised their hands accounted for more than half of the total number. After all, children of this age all had a pure and flawless heart. Of course, it was unknown how long their enthusiasm would last.
Li Ruolan spent some time to divide the children into teams. There were a total of five teams, which corresponded to Monday to Friday. Each team was responsible for taking care of the birds for a day. Moreover, each team had a class committee member as the team leader.
Xi Xi, of course, also became the team leader. In addition to her, there were five other team members, including Lu Xiaoyu and Wang Leilei. Their team was responsible for taking care of the birds on Tuesday.
Xi Xi, for the first time, felt her presence as a literature committee member and the benefits of being a class committee member.
…
Although it was already Wednesday and Xixi and the others were not in charge of taking care of the little birds, the little ones were still very enthusiastic. After class, they crowded in front of the birdcage, discussing and quarreling with each other.
"Can you guys stop arguing? Xiao Ya needs to sleep. You see, it's not in good spirits. After it was injured, it must be in pain and wants to rest. "Xi Xi's eyebrows drooped slightly as she worriedly appealed to everyone.
Xi Xi's words were quite effective. Other than Jiang Chen and Chen Yuxuan, the other children were willing to listen to Xi Xi's command.
Of course, Jiang Chen and Chen Yuxuan did not cause trouble at this time. They were worried about the birds and obediently shut their mouths.
"Xi Xi, let me tell you, you have to feed the birds water," Wang Leilei whispered on the side.
"Feed them water?" Xi Xi didn't understand at first.
Wang Leilei nodded vigorously. Under everyone's surprised gaze, he said seriously, "Yes, birds need to drink water. Our family used to raise a beautiful pigeon, but I didn't give it any water to drink, so it died!"
He was dead!
Such a terrifying result!
Immediately, the little guys started to panic.
"I have water, I'll give it water to drink!" Xi Xi reacted the quickest. She quickly ran back to her seat and took out the water bottle that she usually drank from.
"Here." Wang Leilei pointed to a small blue barrel at the bottom of the birdcage and said.
He looked into Xi Xi's eyes and blinked, but he had no intention of making a move himself. Xi Xi didn't know that Wang Leilei actually liked it but was also afraid of it. He had raised pigeons before, but he always let his parents take care of them. He was afraid that if he reached his hand in, it would peck him with its sharp beak.
Xi Xi didn't care. She only cared about how to take good care of the bird. She opened the birdcage and reached in to take the small blue bucket.
Fortunately, although the brown-headed raven was small, it was actually a lively and brave bird. When Xi Xi put her hand in, it only tilted its head slightly, looked at Xi Xi, and chirped weakly.
"Close the door, or it will run away!" Du Yuqian and the other girls anxiously shouted, but they were just making blind suggestions.
Xi Xi filled the small blue barrel with the water that she drank and stuffed it back to the bird. Moreover, Xi Xi pushed it and placed it in front of the bird.
Under the urging of her friends, Xi Xi quickly closed the birdcage, afraid that Xiao Ya would run out.
"Will it drink?" Xixi looked at the birdcage expectantly and muttered in a low voice.
Beside her, Liao Qianqian was kneeling on a chair, her two arms supporting her cheeks on the table. She was Lan Xin's deskmate. When she heard Xi Xi's worry, she kindly said, "Xi Xi, it might not be so fast! It hasn't recognized us yet! It treats us as strangers! It can't eat food given by strangers! "
But perhaps it was thirsty, or perhaps Xi Xi had some magical powers, the bird tilted its head left and right, not knowing what it was looking at. After pondering for a while, it slowly stepped on its thin little feet, walked over, and took a sip of water.
"It drank! It drank! " Before Xi Xi could feel happy, the boys behind her cheered excitedly. Wang Leilei was so excited that his little face was red.
Not only did it drink water, after the bird drank its fill, it even took a sip of water and combed its hair. Obviously, it was more energetic than before.
Xi Xi was overjoyed like her friends. Moreover, she still remembered what Liao Qianqian said just now. The girl turned her head around happily and said to Liao Qianqian, "Qianqian, looks like Xiao Ya is willing to treat us as good friends!"
…
Yang Yi only found out about the story of "Xiao Ya" when he went to pick up Xi Xi and Lan Xin in the evening.
"… I really want to bring Xiao Ya home to live, but Xin Er said that cats eat birds. But, Papa, our family's Xiao Guai, Xiao Hui, and Dodo are so obedient. They won't eat Xiao Ya, right?" Xi Xi was still thinking about this. After returning home, she saw Xiao Guai walking through the living room with its big fat butt, so she ran to ask her father.
"They won't eat birds. These guys have been raised to be picky. Not to mention birds, they won't even eat mice." Yang Yi smiled and said.
Murphy heard this and quickly waved her hand and said, "You can't say that. Although they won't eat, after all, their nature is there. If you really put the bird at home, it may still suffer. I saw a Microbroadcast two days ago. It said that cats treat themselves as part of our family. They feel that they have the obligation to hunt for food for the family, so they will catch some mice, birds, and so on and give them to you! "
Yang Yi suddenly understood. He smiled and said to Murphy, "Yes, you also showed it to me. That photo. When I woke up in the morning, I found a dead mouse beside my bed. "
"Then we can't raise Xiao Ya at home." Xi Xi was anxious and worried. She said, "Xiao Ya is so small. It can't beat Xiao Guai and the others. Also, I'm afraid that Steamed Bun will bully it."
Steamed Bun, who was lying on the side bored, raised his head and looked at the little master with a confused expression.
"Papa thinks that your teacher's idea is pretty good. Let you and your classmates take care of the bird together, instead of only you being able to see the bird. Everyone can help the bird recover. How good is that!" Yang Yi said with a smile.
"It's called Xiao Ya because the teacher said that it's a brown-headed crow, but I don't know why it's called that." Xi Xi twisted her little butt, pouted her little mouth, and said sadly, "But, but if Xiao Ya lives in school, won't it be lonely? Also, I'm worried if it will be scared tonight! I can't accompany it in school because at night, I'm also scared. "
"There's no such thing, little bird. Yes, Xiao Ya is different from us humans. It's also different from Xiao Guai and Steamed Bun." Yang Yi comforted gently, "It won't be scared. It used to live alone in the wild. Also, it wants to sleep peacefully at night. It's already very tired from playing with you guys during the day."
"It's okay, you go do your homework first. Tonight, you can come to the study. Papa and you can look at the information together. We'll come up with a very detailed plan to raise Xiao Ya. This way, you can take good care of Xiao Ya!" Yang Yi rubbed Xi Xi's little head and said with a smile.
"En en!" Xi Xi nodded her head and a smile appeared on her face.
