Each generation has its own swallows.

A pair of swallows that don't know how to build a nest have come to a netizen's home.

[It collapses right after it's built]

[After the collapse, they stood back to back arguing on the power lines.]

Even the male swallow catching insects didn't bring peace.

In the end, the mother swallow got so angry that she flew away.

Only the male swallow remained, all alone, guarding the ruined nest.

[The netizen's father couldn't bear to watch any longer, so he nailed a wooden board down to help them build a foundation.]

[I never expected the mother swallow to actually return!]

Two swallows successfully built their nest and hatched several baby swallows.

[As a result, because there were so many chicks, even catching insects until their wings were smoking wasn't enough to feed them all]

The couple started arguing and going on strike again.

The baby swallows were crying loudly from hunger in their nest, but no one paid them any attention.

[With no other option, netizens have to buy mealworms and feed online to feed them.]

As a result, the two swallows immediately stopped arguing.

[He no longer goes out hunting; he stays home all day feeding the kids with food he finds.]

"So, family discord is due to insufficient material conditions?"

[Gong Yanzi: Is it really feasible to put on such a show?]

Mother Swallow: It's a package deal. His family is so kind. If you act well, they'll provide food and lodging.

Swallow's Wife: Do you think this method will really work?

Swallow's husband: "My wife is a busybody, that old man loves to meddle in other people's business."

"Yes, swallows love to run away. Last time I saw a pair, the female swallow took a taxi and ran away, the male couldn't catch her, it made me cry!"

"If it weren't for the Chinese belief that swallows coming to this house is auspicious, I would have swatted a bee long ago [crying emoji]"

"[Tears streaming down my face] I've seen novice swallow couples who don't know how to build a nest, and the older swallows come back cursing and grumbling while building a nest for the young pair."

"Swallows used to build their nests because there were straw stalks in the ground, making it easier to build them. Now, swallows build their nests purely from mud, which is much harder to do."

"Three swallow nests come to my house every year, and we've lived peacefully for several years. One year, my dad thought it looked unsightly that the swallows were dropping their droppings at the front door, so he had a wooden board installed under the swallow nest. Since then, they haven't come back, and even after the board was removed, they haven't returned. [facepalm][facepalm]"

"We have three nests in our house. The first one was clever; it built right next to the door of our main room. The second one, through tireless effort, built its nest on the eaves. The third one was a bit unfortunate; it built its nest on the door of our kitchen. But our kitchen door is low, so every time it was built, it collapsed, and then we built it again. [facepalm][facepalm][facepalm][facepalm][facepalm]"

Our ancestors under the sky: No, how come these swallows have become as pampered as people in later generations? Now they can't even build a nest and need to be fed.

The swallows in our family always build their own nests and catch their own insects. No other swallows are this useless. They can't even build a nest, so how can they expect to have a mate? I bet they use all their tricks to seduce the female swallows and flirt with her!

Just like that Zhang scholar next door, he was no good at studying, and he was too weak to work in the fields. Luckily, he managed to marry a woman whose family owned a security escort agency, thanks to his pretty face. He ate and drank at his in-laws' house every day. In modern terms, what would you call that? Living off a woman? Tsk tsk tsk!

Those with swallows in their homes gaze enviously at the sky: "They're actually doing well. So what if they can't build a nest? At least the swallows build their nests outside."

Nowhere is my swallow as bizarre as this! It built its nest right next to the outhouse. Every time I poop in the outhouse, it poops too. I really don't understand, does it not have a sense of smell and can't it tell? The smell is so strong, doesn't it feel ashamed?

Yesterday, a guest came to visit. Late at night, he went to the outhouse and, in his half-asleep state, saw a huge pit. He was so frightened he almost fell into it. Later, he told others that our house was haunted and had bad feng shui…
