Chapter 199: I, Zhou Yuan, am the head of the family
Most of the small leaf ficus planted in the community is still lush in this winter, but the leaves of the fruit trees have already fallen clean. Zhou Li saw a bud that had just emerged from the branch of a peach tree.
Everything that catches your eye is familiar.
Even the stray cats scurrying on the ground, many Zhou Li remembered their appearance.
Zhu Shuang also named them.
However, it is not only Zhu Shuang who names them, but also seven or eight names for each of their cats.
At this time, Zhou Li was dragging a box, carrying a backpack, and carrying a cat litter box with only a decorative function in the other hand. Tuanzi was also very sensible and didn't let him hug him, obediently followed him, and walked happily in small steps.
But Huai Xu was jumping in front empty-handed.
"The Great Demon King is back!"
"What about the two little demons?"
A half-fluffy head poked out of the hollow of the tree, and quickly retracted again.
Sail!
Huai Xu appeared at the edge of the tree hole, poked his head and looked inside: "Why are you still avoiding me? You haven't seen us for so long?
Old Ash's voice faintly came from the tree hole: "It's too cold in winter, and I don't have anything to eat, so I don't want to go out......"
"What is that rat doing in there?"
"Shhhh ”
"That's good. Huai Xu was a little envious, "If only I could sleep for a long time." ”
"The human child is back, too. Lao Zhou looked at Zhou Li.
"Are you okay?" Zhou Li glanced at the old ladies sitting in the distance chattering and ready to scramble for the paper shells in the trash cans, and he took out his mobile phone and pretended to speak to it.
"It's all right. ”
"That's good, we brought you the fruit from Xishuangbanna, in the box, and I'll ask Huaixu to take it down for you later." ”
"What's so embarrassing?" said Ash, rubbing his hands.
"It should. ”
Zhou Li saw that the old gray seemed to have lost some weight.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, he poked his head out and looked into the hole in the tree, and vaguely saw the sleeping Xiaoyuan, maybe it was too round before, and Zhou Li couldn't tell if he was thin for a while.
However, food is really scarce in winter, and there will be a lot fewer people even feeding stray cats, so stray cats are always listless.
Tuanzi suddenly tightened to Zhou Li's feet, pulled his trouser leg with his paws and said, "Zhou Li, there are a lot of wild cats in this place, and their eyes are a little scary when they look at Tuanzi." ”
"It's fine. ”
At this time, a few children ran over, Zhou Li didn't dare to let them see him talking to the tree hole, these children were about one-tenth of the naughtiness of Brother Nan when he was a child, which was quite terrifying.
"I'll go back first. ”
"If you go slowly, you won't send it. ”
"Okay. ”
Zhou Li pulled the box and walked towards a building.
When I went upstairs, I just knocked on the door, and there was a rapid sound of footsteps inside.
With a click, the door opened.
Aunt Jiang's figure appeared in front of him, with a smile on her face, and Lao Zhou followed behind Aunt Jiang slowly.
"Are you hungry, waiting for your lunch!"
"Not yet. ”
"Aren't you hungry?"
"Eat a lot in the morning. ”
"What did you eat?"
Aunt Jiang asked as she took the backpack from his hand, and at the same time, Zhu Shuang also came out of the room, and Zhou Li felt like a national treasure under the watchful eyes of so many people.
When Zhou Li changed her shoes, Aunt Jiang also looked out the door, but she was destined not to see Huaixu.
"Xiao Nan came back with you?"
“...... Right. ”
"Why don't you invite people to come up and sit down? Aunt Jiang said with some complaints, "I should invite people to come up and sit, it's noon, and I come back so far away, no matter how I have to stay for lunch." ”
"My parents read it too. ”
"That's right. ”
Aunt Jiang smiled, turned around and shouted to Lao Zhou and Zhushuang: "Why don't you go and scoop up the rice, you are stunned here!"
After the two of them ran to the kitchen, she said to Zhou Li tentatively: "Or, invite someone to come over for a light meal in two days, our family basically doesn't leave relatives during the New Year, invite a classmate to come to the house, and be lively." ”
Zhou Li put on his shoes and didn't say anything.
Aunt Jiang looked disappointed.
A variety of dishes have been laid out on the table, and the aroma of the dishes fills the room, giving it a warm feeling.
Tuanzi was not afraid of life at all, ran to Zhou Li's feet, jumped onto Zhou Li's legs, pulled the edge of the table and looked at the table, firmly attracting the attention of Zhu Shuang and Aunt Jiang.
"This cat is so bold!" Aunt Jiang said.
"It looks a little different from the original. Zhu Shuang thought, "It used to be like a short skewer in the United Kingdom, but now it is like a short skewer in the United States." ”
"It could be a British short and an American short string. Zhou Li said.
"That's right. ”
"I spoiled her. Zhou Li saw Tuanzi meowing on the table and explained, "Usually she eats on the table, but she won't touch the dishes on the table, she will only eat what she wants, and she will instruct me to help her clip what she wants to eat." ”
"Then let it be served, we can't sit down at such a big table anyway. Aunt Jiang's eyes narrowed.
"Otherwise, people are to blame the pitiful. Zhu Shuang said.
"Good. ”
So Zhou Li brought the rice bowl of the dumplings to the table, moved the dishes to make a vacant space for her, and continued: "She usually doesn't eat cat food, and she doesn't eat it when she eats it, except for canned beef and dried fish, just like a human eat." ”
"It's easy to get sick like this......" Zhu Shuang said weakly.
"It's good that she's happy. Zhou Li said.
"Oh......"
"In the past, the native cats in our hometown were the same, they ate whatever people ate, and they were oily and slippery. Old Zhou squeaked, and then he looked at Zhou Li with chopsticks, faintly like a company leader, "Where is your car parked?"
"Brother Nan drove back. ”
"Such~~"
Lao Zhou nodded and smacked his tongue.
He originally thought that this child was 'wasted', but now it seems that it is not unreasonable for the blue to be better than the blue. Like when he was young, although he harmed many girls, they were all blind play, and they were poor.
Pooling money with other girls to buy a car?
I can't even think about it.
Zhu Shuang on the other side couldn't help but feel respect.
In his place, although he is financially independent and earns money to buy a car, he can't compare to the matter of 'chasing Brother Nan' - in their school, Brother Nan's name is well-known, sometimes better than the name of the teaching director, not only the idol in everyone's hearts, but also the eldest sister recognized by many people, I didn't expect to be soaked by my brother like this.
It's like being in it.
Meal.
Zhou Li and Zhu Shuang went to wash the dishes.
Lao Zhou sat leisurely on the sofa, set up the tea set on the coffee table, and took out the treasured Yunnan red and wolfberry, ready to make a cup of health black tea when it was almost digested.
There was news on the TV, and he watched it seriously.
Lao Zhou has also given himself a holiday in the past two days, and he pretends to be an uncle at home all day long, of course, mainly by deceiving himself-
As long as he firmly believes that he is the head of the family, he is the head of the family. If Aunt Jiang calls him, he will do it honestly, and when he is done, he will turn his head and forget about it, and his old Zhou is still the head of the family.
Seeing Zhou Li and Zhu Shuang coming out of the kitchen, he coughed twice and reminded: "This epidemic is getting more and more serious, you had better not go to crowded places in the past few days of the Chinese New Year." ”
"Is it so serious?" Zhou Li asked.
"It's okay......" Zhu Shuang said.
"I have a business friend in Jiangcheng, and I heard him say that Jiangcheng is about to be closed now. Lao Zhou said leisurely, "Maybe it will be a little pressed in the past few days, and you will know in two days." ”
"Lockdown?" Zhou Li was a little stunned.
"Really, fake?" Zhu Shuang was also surprised.
"Can't run. Lao Zhou's expression was calm, "But our Yancheng is a small place, so it shouldn't be too big, and we must have confidence in the country." It just so happens that our family doesn't have any relatives left. But don't go to crowded places lately, and try to go out as little as possible. ”
"That's right. ”
Zhou Li nodded, thoughtful.
Lao Zhou's vision is very wide, at least much wider than him, and he believes in Lao Zhou's information and judgment.
But he was planning to visit Zheng Zhilan tomorrow. Today I stayed for two days on the 27th, 28th, and 29th of the lunar month, and came back early on Chinese New Year's Eve, anyway, I really didn't have any relatives at home, and I came back for the New Year.
He doesn't plan to change.
Zheng Zhilan: That's obviously not a crowded place.
Zhou Li even thought in his mind that if one day a virus like Resident Evil broke out, the Yin-Yang Temple, guarded by evil gods and like an out-of-earth place, should become one of the safest places in the world.
It's best to bring Brother Nan with you.
Zheng Zhilan can also see Brother Nan clearly.
