Chapter 53 The old hen suffers from depression
Gu Chan ignored it for the time being, but began to check its body carefully.
Just this inspection made her stunned!
This old hen not only has shiny fur, but also has plump flesh on her body. Are there any symptoms?
The most important thing is that it is fed delicious food and drinks by the village chief's family every day. Whether it is living environment or nutrition, it keeps up with it, and there is no problem of being unable to lay eggs.
If it is normal for an old hen to be unable to lay eggs due to her old age, this old hen is not yet able to lay eggs!
"Oh my god! What's going on here?"
At the end of the examination, Gu Chan couldn't help but mutter.
Recalling that before time travel, when she opened a pet shop, this situation also happened. If a small animal has no physical abnormalities, but is depressed and has a loss of appetite, it is likely that there is a psychological problem.
Thinking like this, Gu Chan said tentatively, "Come, let's chat! I want to know why you are in a bad mood."
【Two-legged beast! What do you mean by my being a chicken? I just eat and sleep every day, eat when I sleep, and be supported by you two-legged beasts like my ancestors. I always feel that there is something missing in my chicken life. My chicken life is incomplete! ] The old hen lay on the ground and confided.
Gu Chan's eyes widened upon hearing this.
Dry!
Is this old hen suffering from depression?
Obviously it lives such a good life every day, it can be said that it can reach out for clothes and open its mouth for food, but it still has this kind of meaningless thought, isn't it a proper depression patient? Is there any symptom of the disease?
Chickens... can also suffer from depression?
Gu Chan quickly asked, "So, you are not actually sick, but you are just in a bad mood because you feel that your life is meaningless?"
[I want to die, I don’t want to lay eggs, and I don’t want to live either. 】The old hen has no love left.
"Okay, I found the cause of the disease." Gu Chan reached out and patted her thigh with a smile on her face.
To cure this old hen, she only needs to prescribe the right medicine.
The five members of He Fengyang's family sitting behind Gu Chan looked at Gu Chan with confused expressions.
Gu Chan was talking to the old hen just now, but to them it sounded like "cluck..."
They didn't understand anything the old hen said.
The village chief's son even looked puzzled and said, "Dad, what is he doing? Why does it feel like he is talking to that old hen?"
"Yes! Look, when he said something, the old hen giggled and replied, I have never seen a veterinarian who treats chickens like this!" The village chief's daughter-in-law also scratched the back of her head and muttered.
He Fengyang frowned, "I don't know how he treats the disease, let's wait and see!"
After saying that, the five people closed their mouths and calmed down to continue watching.
By this time, Gu Chan had almost finished chatting with the old hen. After confirming its condition, Gu Chan immediately got up and walked to He Fengyang and said, "It is a bit seriously ill and has the tendency to commit suicide at any time."
"Ah? Is it so serious?" He Fengyang was surprised.
"This disease is called 'depression'. It is a psychological disease. It is difficult to be completely cured. Only external force can alleviate the disease."
"Depression syndrome? I've never heard of it!" He Fengyang was stunned.
His son and daughter-in-law even looked at each other, looking at each other in confusion.
Gu Chan said seriously, "It doesn't matter whether you heard it or not. Now you just need to tell me whether you want to cure it so that it can continue to lay eggs for your family in the future."
"Of course I have, please tell me how to cure it!" He Fengyang urged.
"It's very simple. You go to the county fair, buy a rooster and keep it company. Its disease is caused by psychological loneliness. You usually don't raise other chickens at home, so it feels lonely, and then I got depressed." Gu Chan immediately thought of this. They say love is the cure for all diseases.
Since this old hen feels that her chicken life is incomplete, she will help her fall in love, so that her chicken life will be complete, right?
“Goo!”
As expected, as soon as Gu Chan said these words, He Fengyang didn't wait for her to agree! The old hen lying on the ground over there suddenly made a cooing sound. Then, as if it suddenly felt better, it became interested and slowly stood up from the ground.
He Fengyang's family of five were dumbfounded.
The son exclaimed, "Dad, is this rooster so powerful? Just hearing the word rooster, it suddenly became energetic!"
"That person still has to get married and have children! What girl doesn't want to be young when she's older?" He Fengyang scolded him angrily.
Gu Chan smiled dryly upon hearing this.
Although He Fengyang's words may not be pleasant to the ear, they are rough and rational! She didn't bother to refute.
He Fengyang told his son, "Okay, just listen to him for the time being. You go to the market immediately and buy a rooster. From now on, we will raise two chickens at home. When we lay more eggs, we can also lay chicks to raise them." , which is quite good.”
"Okay dad, I'll go right away." The son agreed quickly, got up and ran into the house to get the money. He packed a basket on his back and hurried out of the house and rushed to the market to buy a big rooster.
He Fengyang looked at Gu Chan and said, "You go back first. When the rooster is bought back, if it does what you said and its condition improves and it can continue to lay eggs for my family, I will give you five taels of silver."
"Don't worry, as long as you buy a big rooster, I guarantee that its illness will be relieved soon, but I can't guarantee you that it will recover." Gu Chan assured you, patting her chest.
After saying that, she turned around and left.
The village chief's daughter-in-law suddenly stopped her, "Wait a minute."
"What?" Gu Chan turned around.
"Since you are really good at veterinarians, why don't you go to the county to practice your skills instead of staying in such a poor mountain village?" asked the village chief's daughter-in-law.
Gu Chan didn't answer and left directly.
On the way back, she was thinking about the question asked by the village chief's daughter-in-law.
yes!
According to her current situation, she is both a practitioner of physical arts and can understand animal language. Although the veterinary thing is a bit of a gag, at least she can treat mysterious beasts better than ordinary people.
Then she has these skills, and it will obviously be better for her to develop in the county and make more money. So what is the point of her continuing to stay here?
Thinking about this, Gu Chan couldn't think of an answer for a while.
It wasn't until she came to the door of her house and saw Zhang Wanshan who was carving a piece of wood with a chisel in the yard, trying to carve out a wooden trough, that she had the answer in her heart.
"Why do you continue to stay here? Because I have relatives here!"
Gu Chan thought to herself, with a happy smile on her face, "Grandpa, let me help you."
Zhang Wanshan nodded happily.
Gu Chan trotted over and helped her grandfather dig the food trough.
