Splendid Pastoral

Chapter 11: Stray Cat

"Zhao Min, after putting the dishes in the kitchen, go and boil some hot water for Ling Qing, and take a bath later."

Gu Po gave instructions to Zhao Min who was carrying the dishes behind her.

"understood."

Walking to the small kitchen with heavy steps, Zhao Min sat on a small wooden stool and rubbed her thighs after putting away the dishes.

Walking down such a long mountain path is really amazing, Zhao Min himself admires himself!

I really miss the car of the 21st century!
But it's just thinking about it, I don't know how long I will stay in this body!

Resigned to his fate, Zhao Min went to the firewood stack to get a bundle of firewood, ready to start a fire.

Fortunately, my family background was not very good, and I grew up in the countryside when I was a child. Otherwise, making a fire would really be difficult for me, a doctoral saint.

Gu Lingqing sat on the chair with a serious expression on his face.

"Master." Gu Po respectfully stood in front of Gu Lingqing.

Gu Lingqing put her right hand on the table and clasped it lightly, once, once.

"This woman is very weird. I have never seen the boxing technique she used today. I don't know if Gu Po has any impressions?"

Gu Po shook her head lightly, "Forgive me for my clumsy eyes, I have never seen this kind of boxing before."

"Continue to stare at her, and see that this style of behavior does not seem to be sent by the people over there, but don't take it lightly."

"Yes." Gu Po slightly nodded

Gu Lingqing narrowed her eyes slightly, and there was a hint of interest in her eyes, "Interesting."

Zhao Min sat in front of the stove adding firewood and looked towards the room on the west side of the yard.

From time to time, the grandparent and grandson would get into the room, not knowing what they were talking about, or whether they were scolding themselves.

Zhao Min pouted and added some firewood.

In short, these two people are weird in every way. Gu Lingqing's mind is no different from that of normal people, but he is pretending to be crazy in this small village.

The Gu family's house is not different from other houses in the village, but Gu Po cleans it three times a day, and the small table for eating in the yard is always neatly arranged.

If it wasn't for obsessive-compulsive disorder and cleanliness, he would have received excellent education there.

No matter what Zhao Min said, he is also a modern person who has watched time-travel dramas. Although Gu Lingqing lives in this humble place and wears coarse cloth, the elegance he eats is definitely not something a rural person can do.

Moreover, it is normal to not take a bath for half a day in the countryside, but this Gu Lingqing actually has to take a bath every day.

Thinking of this, Zhao Min complained in his heart, looking at the cauldron sitting on the stove, he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.

I am an outstanding student, the youngest doctoral student in the school, and I am reduced to boiling bath water for people here? !
"(≧^.^≦) Meow~"

A meow interrupted Zhao Min's thoughts, Zhao Min got up and went looking for the sound.

After pushing aside the haystacks outside the kitchen, Zhao Min saw a small cat in the gap.

"So cute~"

This kitten is black and white, looking at Zhao Min with round eyes, sticking out its tongue to lick its paws from time to time.

"Meow~"

Zhao Min is about to be turned into a cutie!

Zhao Min stepped forward cautiously, for fear of scaring it, slowly, slowly, put his hand on its neck.

Seeing that the little cat didn't resist much, Zhao Min stroked it.

"Little cat, why are you hiding here by yourself?"

"Meow~"

Zhao Min held it in her arms, stroking it like holding a child.

The little cat kept meowing, and suddenly, it jumped out of Zhao Min's arms and ran out from the gate of the compound.

"Ugh?"

Zhao Min looked at his empty hands and shrugged his shoulders, maybe someone's cat ran out.

Zhao Min didn't pay much attention to today's little episode. How could he think that, the next day, Zhao Min saw another kitten beside the haystack, with black and white patterns, wasn't it the one that ran away yesterday?

"Why is the cutie here again?"

The little cat called "meow meow", which made Zhao Min's heart shudder.

Zhao Min has always wanted to raise a cat, but he has no choice but to shuttle back and forth in the traditional Chinese medicine room of the laboratory all day, and has no time to raise a pet at all.

Seeing the little cat again, Zhao Min's love overflowed, and he wanted to play with it for a while.

The little cat barked a few times and walked towards the door again, but this time it didn't leave directly. It stood at the door and looked at Zhao Min, as if it was waiting for her.

This little cat is so humane?
By coincidence, Zhao Min left with the little cat.

At a haystack not far from the village entrance, the little cat stopped.

"Meow~"

Zhao Min looked curiously at the haystack, and saw a litter of newborn kittens and a white cat.

The kitten squeezed under the white cat to drink milk, but the white cat looked very weak, probably because it was too weak to produce milk.

Zhao Min seems to have understood the reason why this little cat brought him here.

"wait for me a while."

In a moment of urgency, I completely forgot that it is impossible for the little cat to understand what I said.

Zhao Min ran towards the village, the little cat took a look at the white cat and the kitten waiting to be fed, and followed her away.

Finally approaching the entrance of the village, Zhao Min heard some strange noises coming from the cornfield not far away.

"Um~ don't~"

Zhao Min cat walked in, and from the gap between the corn stalks, he saw two people on the ground not far away doing messy things.

The woman who was pinned down by the man glanced at Zhao Min, wasn't she Zhao Xiu'e?

Zhao Min was startled, afraid that she saw him, and took a step back, not wanting to step on a dry branch in the ground, and made a "pop".

"Listen, is there someone~"

"Meow~"

The little cat meowed in due course.

"It's just a cat, Xiu'e, you miss me!" Hearing this man's voice, Zhao Min was a little disgusted.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Xiu'e hooked up with Zhao Mazi!
While the two were doing that, they lost themselves for a moment, Zhao Min hurriedly picked up the little cat beside him, and left this disgusting place.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Xiu'e, who has always been self-proclaimed, also fell into the hands of Zhao Mazi.

Zhao Min's face is full of sarcasm, this Qinghe is really good looking!

Gu Lingqing went out early in the morning, Gu Po also said to go to the mountains to collect herbs, Zhao Min also mentioned to go together, he still has a high level of research on Chinese herbal medicine, but was rejected by Gu Po, with a mysterious look.

Zhao Min is no longer surprised, the behavior of the grandfather and grandson has always been strange.

After returning home, the house was empty. Zhao Min took some cornbread, remembering that a newborn kitten would not be able to chew, and filled a bowl with the mush cooked last night before going out.

Seeing the kittens eating so happily, Zhao Min was also full of satisfaction.

Before he knew it, the sun was setting and the sun was about to set, Zhao Min secretly cried out.

"I'll see you again tomorrow!" He rushed home in a hurry.
