Strange Life of a Cat
Chapter 204 Gu Family
Er Mao stayed in the bedroom and made a phone call. Ever since Da Mi Xiaomi was born, Hei Mi had taken good care of the two kittens. Everything was going well. Er Mao was relieved and his anxious state gradually disappeared and returned to his original state. He was probably there again recently. Make an appointment to hang out with someone.
Zheng Tan went in through the ajar door, stood at the door of the study and looked at the cat's nest. Heimi was eating outside his home. When he noticed Zheng Tan at the door, he just glanced at him and ignored him. However, if Zheng Tan walked into the study, Heimi would definitely yell. So every time Zheng Tan came, he would just look at the door curiously and not go in.
The kittens have been born for two weeks and have recently begun to grow teeth. They have also become much stronger and more coordinated. When Heimi is not around, they will crawl around in the nest and sometimes crawl out of the nest. Er Mao asked someone to look over it and found out that the black and white cat with a mole on the corner of its mouth that looked like peanut candy was male. Er Mao also posted in a pet forum that his "daughter" had given birth to twins.
There was a layer of carpet outside the cat's nest. This was specially prepared by Er Mao so that the kitten would not get cold on the floor when it crawled out. Er Mao felt that it should be careful even on a hot day. After all, it was a kitten, not a big cat.
Zheng Tan also saw some kittens that were a few weeks old when he was filming commercials at a pet center. In comparison, it is probably because the special genes of "Jue Ye" are too strong. Now the two kittens are as good as ordinary kittens in two weeks. Three-week-old kittens are about the same size, and their fur is longer and thicker than that of three-week-old short-haired domestic cat kittens. These are similar to their father's peanut candy. It is said that short-haired cats open their eyes earlier than long-haired cats. Not only do these two cats open their eyes earlier than other cats, and they grow bigger, but they also often crawl out of the cat's nest in high spirits and groping around. But now they seem to be unable to stand upright or crawl. My limbs tremble when I walk.
When Zheng Tan was looking at the two kittens, the two kittens had just woken up and found that Hei Mi was not there. They started making noises and barking again. When no one paid attention, they stood on the edge of the cat's nest and looked out, and then with one force, It fell out of the cat's nest and rolled on the carpet.
Heimi looked over there and continued eating. He was probably used to the two of them struggling like this.
As the two kittens stumbled away on the carpet, Zheng Tan looked at them and saw that their ears had not yet fully stood up, but they would still move in response to some sounds outside.
After watching Heimi take the two kittens back to the cat's nest, Zheng Tan left and went upstairs.
Tomorrow, Jiao's mother will take Xiao Youzi, Jiao Yuan and Zheng Tan to leave Chuhua City and go to Jiao's hometown to spend the summer vacation. Before leaving, Zheng Tan came over to see the two kittens. When he came back, the two kittens would probably be full of trouble in the house, but he didn't know if they would have the same personality as their father.
If these two kittens stay in the compound in the future, the compound may find peace difficult to come by. But I heard that the mother cat will drive away the kittens once they grow up. When listening to Wei Leng and Er Mao chatting that day, Zheng Tan was thinking that Peanut Tang would often patrol in this area. If Zheng Tan hadn't been the mediator, Peanut Tang would probably have a fight with the police chief and Big Fatty every time he came to the compound. Have a fight. So, when the two kittens grow up, will there be a war between father and son and father and daughter?
Cats have a strong sense of territory. Sir Alex and Peanut Sugar care about "territory" very much. The kittens who inherit the bloodline of "Grand Master" will most likely not be kind cats. They say that there are no fathers and sons on the battlefield. In nature, I don’t know if the rules of wild cats will be enforced here. Maybe then, Ermao will still have to give these two away.
After the summer vacation, Xiaoyouzi and Jiao Yuan stayed at home all day long to do their summer homework. They wanted to finish it early and go out to play early. They didn't want to go out with their summer homework, which would not be fun. For Xiao Youzi, the best she can do is to leave the space for writing essays and diaries in her Chinese summer homework and make up for it when the time comes. Now, they had almost finished their homework, and Mother Jiao had nothing to do, so she called Mr. Gu and told him the time.
Early the next morning, before the sun was so hot, the three members of the Jiao family went downstairs carrying the prepared gifts. Jiao's mother had already driven the car for maintenance and refueled it. She didn't want her two children to suffer because of the car's problems. Something happened.
The air conditioner in the car was turned on, Zheng Tan was in the passenger seat, and Xiao Youzi and Jiao Yuan were in the back seat, preparing to play chess.
After taking a nap, Zheng Tan looked out the window again and found that he had gotten off the highway and there were large breeding ponds outside.
There are a lot of aquaculture activities in this place. I heard that there are nearly 4,000 fishermen here, which shows that the total area of the fishery here is huge. In addition to the four main species of fish, silver carp and bighead carp, there are also mandarin fish, eels, soft-shelled turtles, shrimps, crabs, etc. Anyway, Zheng Tan doesn’t have to worry about not being able to eat fish when he comes here.
In addition to being famous for its fish ponds, this place also has some experimental fields, and sometimes new varieties of fruits that are about to be launched can be eaten here in advance.
Many people here have made their fortunes through the aquaculture industry. Nowadays, roads in many places in the village are well built, so Zheng Tan was able to sleep until now without waking up because of bad roads.
"Look, someone is catching fish!" Jiao Yuan stopped playing chess and pointed outside and shouted. He likes to come here because he can fish and catch shrimps, which is fun.
Zheng Tan saw that there was a pond over there where fish were being caught, probably to be transported somewhere, and there was a truck parked next to it.
"Sit tighter!" Mother Jiao scolded from the front.
Jiao Yuan didn't move any more, just pressed against the car window and looked outside. There were some children from the village helping around there, but they didn't know what they were doing. Jiao Yuan didn't know much about them.
Little Yuzi was also very curious. Although she didn't say a word, she could tell from her eyes.
Mr. Gu and the old lady had been waiting at the door of the house, and their eyes narrowed with laughter when they saw the car.
Zheng Tan took a look and saw that the two old men were accompanied by a native dog with a wagging tail. It had a black back and some white on its chest and legs. The funniest thing was that the dog had two spots of white on its eyebrows. Zheng Tan didn't see this dog when he came during the Chinese New Year. He must have caught it after the New Year. He didn't look like an adult yet. The half-grown native dog seemed quite energetic. He looked at the car approaching and approached Old Man Gu. He stepped back, but he wasn't too afraid, and he stared here curiously.
Both Jiao Ma and Jiao Yuan were very happy to see Xiao Youzi, especially Little Youzi. As soon as Mr. Gu saw Little Youzi get out of the car, he jumped up and picked up Little Youzi, "Well, it's heavy, our little Youzi It’s grown again!”
After Zheng Tan got out of the car, the half-sized native dog that had been staying behind Mr. Gu started barking at Zheng Tan, "woof, woof, woof," and rushed over ferociously, but stopped suddenly twenty centimeters away from Zheng Tan. He didn't bite, but continued to bark, and his "eyebrows" trembled.
Zheng Tan looked at the half-grown native dog in front of him and thought: This guy's facial expressions are quite rich.
After parking the car, they were led into the house by Mr. Gu. The room had been tidied up.
"Your mother dewormed the front and back of the house last week. There are a lot of mosquitoes in summer, and sometimes there are snakes, but don't worry, I've already done some protection. Youzi is not afraid." Mr. Gu held Little Youzi in front. Let’s go. The first half of the sentence was to Mother Jiao, and the second half was to Little Yuzi.
Zheng Tan looked at Jiao Yuan. The child didn't care at all about Mr. Gu's favoritism. His eyes fell on the fishing gear in the room, and his eyes were shining. If Jiao's mother hadn't been standing beside him, the child would have gone up and grabbed it. played.
The local dog raised by Mr. Gu was called "Er Tong". The old lady said that she saw that the dog's eyebrows were funny and looked like Er Tong in mahjong, so she called it that name.
Hearing the name "Er Tong", Zheng Tan couldn't help but think, isn't it a collection of second-rate goods and losers?
Ertong didn't just stare at Zheng Tan at this time. Three strangers came. It was also smart. Except for roaring twice at the beginning and being scolded by Mr. Gu, it stopped roaring. It probably knew that the three people who came were not Bad people should be treated close to each other. Then it followed forward and backward, its curled tail waving very happily.
The old lady washed some grapes and brought them over. They were delivered by others two days ago. The two old people were reluctant to eat them, so they kept them for Mother Jiao and the others today. There are also some fruits from the experimental field that have just come onto the market this year, which are washed and put in fruit baskets.
Mr. Gu used to be a cadre in the village. After his retirement, he still had some prestige in the village and was quite popular. But what Mr. Gu often talked about was: What is the use of bank cards these days? Sometimes you have to swipe your face? !
Therefore, Mr. Gu values face and often brags in front of his daughter. He has two daughters. He has no shame to mention the things the younger daughter did to the village. People in the village only know that Mr. Gu’s youngest daughter is making a lot of money abroad, and his granddaughter and his family Because of her surname, Mr. Gu just called his granddaughter, and he always asked Xiaoyouzi to call him grandpa. People who didn't know thought that Mr. Gu had recruited a son-in-law.
After arriving here, after a day of rest, Jiao Yuan couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to run out to play.
Mr. Gu gave them two small shovels and a small plastic bucket to dig up earthworms in the backyard.
Zheng Tan stayed nearby, watching them dig up earthworms. Little Yuzi was a little scared at first, but gradually he let go. After a few shovels and saw earthworms, he grabbed them with his hands and threw them into a small plastic bucket.
After the earthworms were almost dug, Mr. Gu gave each of the two children a straw hat and found a few wooden poles of suitable length. He also dug out the cotton thread that had not been used at home. It didn't need to be too long and tied one end to the wooden pole. Go to a wild pond.
The wild pond is not big. It used to be a fish pond, but later it was filled in. No one took care of it. I don’t know when there were more shrimps here. Some children in the village like to come here to fish for shrimps in summer. There were some trees growing next to the wild pond to provide shade, and Mr. Gu tied earthworms on them. This is a shrimp fishing method often used by children in the village. It doesn’t require much attention, as long as you can catch it, the cost is almost zero.
Jiao Yuan had experience and didn't need Mr. Gu to say much. He just started with the wooden pole, so Mr. Gu taught Little Youzi alone. Also prepare a cheat sheet next to it.
People say that shrimps are stupid, but Zheng Tan thinks it is true.
The place where Jiao Yuan lowers the pole is not deep. After all, the length of the wooden pole is only about one meter, and the cotton string is not long. Zheng Tan could see the earthworms tied to the end of the rope moving underwater. Then, not long after, a shrimp approached. Zheng Tan could see the action of the clamp holding the earthworm. When Jiao Yuan lifted the wooden pole, the shrimp did not let go of the clamp.
Zheng Tan came to the iron bucket and looked at the shrimp that had just been shaken off by Jiao Yuan. The shrimp was facing Zheng Tanyang's small clip. Zheng Tan sneered, he was so stupid, just waiting to be eaten.
Of course, shrimps are not all like this, there are also some that are more clever, especially some older ones.
Zheng Tan squatted aside and watched them fishing for shrimp for a while, but he became bored again. He couldn't participate in the battle himself, so he could only watch from the side.
After looking around, Zheng Tan was ready to take a stroll.
"Don't run too far," Xiaoyouzi warned, paused, and added: "Don't cause trouble."
Zheng Tan: "..." Why do you like to say this to him?
(4.2) I was planning to update two chapters today, but I had to go out for something. I came back in the evening and took a nap first, then updated one chapter. I will update two chapters tomorrow.
Another: Let me complain about yesterday’s author’s remarks. Originally, some people had questions about the X-ray examination mentioned in Chapter 197, so yesterday I wrote more than 400 words of explanation in the author’s remarks, but today I found that at the end of the chapter There is not even a single word in the testimonial, so it may have been spoofed. I don’t know which words are too sensitive. If anyone still has questions, you can post them directly in the book review area or send a short message on the site.
