Chapter 37: Apu's Worries and Catharsis
Han Mingshan's group of people expressed their intentions, and Apu looked down at Ah Le, wanting to see what she thought, and if Ah Le was willing to move, he would give an answer after discussion. Then Ah Le didn't want to go, so there was no need to delay the time and directly refused.
Apu actually knows that Ah Le's ability can't be hidden for long, after all, he is too outstanding, he is simply a creature in myths and legends, and she often worries about this matter.
Ah Le hadn't come back yet, and after Han Mingshan and his group came over, they vaguely mentioned that they could solve this problem. They have formal channels to help eliminate the social impact of a special animal, and they still have the confidence and ability.
Apu has heard the introduction, this mission is not dangerous, but Ah Le needs to help search for the traces of poachers, and the rest is handled by a large team.
So Apu is tempted, there are not many such opportunities. With an identity and a formal background, Ah Le will be much more convenient, and it will be convenient to solve things in the future, and someone can help deal with them.
Han Mingshan also promised that if Ah Le played a role in this mission, he took them to find the poachers first, and made meritorious contributions, and then he would be directly attached to the animal training brigade, just in name, and usually did not participate in training and attendance. If there is a special task, we will ask for permission first, and then make other arrangements.
The favorable conditions made Apu have to take their suggestions to heart, and now that Ah Le has listened to the content of this mission, it is up to Ah Le to decide whether to go or not.
In Apu's inquiring gaze, Ah Le was still so leisurely and calm.
Lying lazily at Apu's feet, leaning his head on Apu's lap, squinting his eyes, supporting his ears, and gently sweeping his tail back and forth rhythmically.
Outsiders look normal, but Apu knows that Ah Le is interested in this mission.
So Apu said hello to everyone, saying that he still needed to discuss, and entrusted Uncle Jiang and Uncle Jiang to accompany the guests to chat for a while, and then took Ah Le and Zhang Xiaoming into the house.
Coming to the second floor of the wooden house, Zhang Xiaoming and Ah Le sat down, Ah Pu found the sand table and put it in front of Ah Le, and the three "people" began to discuss.
"Ah Le, do you want to go on this mission?" Apu asked, looking into Le's eyes
"Wang~" Ah Le, who had a smart and expectant look in his eyes, nodded dryly
Dotingly reached out and touched Ah Le's head, Ah Pu and Ah Le talked about their thoughts.
She also wants Ah Le to participate in this mission, there is no danger, she can solve some identity problems, and she can rely on her good performance, after all, she is contributing to the motherland.
Then he said some details of participation, this mission Apu can't participate, Uncle Jiang and Uncle Jiang can't go, only Chen Hanlei is an acquaintance.
In Ah Le's case, it really doesn't work if there is no suitable person to follow. Fortunately, Ah Le is kind to Chen Hanlei, after a few contacts, I feel that Chen Hanlei is not bad, and he is from the team, and he has heard Zhang Xiaoming express his praise for "Uncle Chen" many times, so he dispelled his worries and put his mind at ease.
Then he told Ah Le not to be publicistic when he was outside, to be low-key, and to protect himself. In case of danger, when you can do it, you can save your companions in the most hidden way. You must remember to play stupid and don't expose too many extraordinary abilities.
Apu told Ah Le over and over again, and in the chattering care, Ah Le had already understood what Apu wanted to express: go out low-key, be stupid, and try not to move at other times unless necessary. Follow Chen Hanlei closely, if something can't be solved, just look for him directly, pay attention to his safety by the way, don't let him die. Take care of yourself first when there is danger, don't rush in the head, and play dead dog when the task and safety conflict.
After talking for more than half an hour, Apu stopped, and with a dry mouth, she asked Zhang Xiaoming to help pour a glass of water, wanting to ease her breath and then add some precautions to Ah Le when she was out of the house.
Ah Le was already dizzy when he heard it, and even Zhang Xiaoming couldn't stand it, so he took the opportunity to pour water for Sister Apu and slipped away, leaving Ah Le as a "dog" to accept Sister Apu's edification.
In fact, Zhang Xiaoming also wants to go, it must be very exciting and exciting to follow Brother Dog to participate in the action, but he knows that he must be no play, and the important task of adults is not something that he, a little kid who doesn't know anything, can get involved.
Even the idea of suddenly mentioning a few words to Sister Apu just now was quickly dispelled, and the current Sister Apu is so scary. The gentle and lovely Apu sister in the past is gone, and the Apu who has become a nagging demon king is too terrible, so he has to suppress his thoughts and pretend to be an honest and obedient little chubby dun.
As for Brother Dog, he can only ask for more blessings.
Looking at Ah Le, who was about to have mosquito coils in his eyes, Apu could only stop nagging helplessly.
She treats Ah Le as her own child, she has not participated in Ah Le's several adventures before, and Ah Le's "narration" is also vague, so she doesn't feel deeply.
But this time I knew in advance, although I knew that the danger was not great, but somehow I couldn't put my mind at ease, and I was always worried that something would happen to Ah Le.
Ah Le is not a human being after all, and in the case of inconvenient communication with herself, she can only grope and stagger alone, which causes Ah Le to be very independent in many places now.
Apu herself is still a young girl and has no experience with children at all. Some time ago, his work was busy, and on the other hand, Apu didn't know how to face Ah Le, who had undergone great changes, and taught Ah Le, but he subconsciously avoided it, so he was always busy and rarely got close.
Watching Ah Le change and grow rapidly day by day, Apu has always felt very guilty, fortunately Ah Le has always been happy and lively, and he has not distanced himself from himself because he ignored her.
This time, Ah Le was going out alone, and many things that Ah Pu had hidden in his heart broke out, and many of the chatters seemed to be telling Ah Le, but in fact, he was telling his heart and expressing his apologies.
Zhang Xiaoming stood in front of Apu and Ale with a water glass, and in front of him, Sister Apu and Brother Dog looked at each other stupidly, and the little chubby Dun'er who didn't know what was going on also fell into silence.
After a long time, Apu stretched out his hands and firmly hugged Ah Le in front of him, buried his head in Ah Le's soft golden hair, his shoulders shook slightly, tears flowed from his eyes, and he let out a low sob.
Ah Le could feel some of the emotions in Apu's heart, but she couldn't understand why Apu suddenly started crying.
Ah Le, who couldn't figure it out, threw these aside, tilted his head sideways, stretched out his tongue and gently licked Apu's neck, expressing his comfort to Apu in his own way.
Zhang Xiaoming, who was holding the teacup, watched the interaction between Ah Le and Sister Apu flurry, and stood stupidly for a while before dropping the water cup and joining in.
He pounced on Sister Apu, holding Ale with one hand and climbing on Apu with the other, expressing his emotions in the greasy and crooked, grinding and grinding.
The mood was broken by the messy little chubby dun, and Apu quickly returned to normal. Let go of his arm and put down Ah Le, then gently pushed away Zhang Xiaoming, who was glued to his body, and looked down at Ah Le.
Ah Le's eyes are still full of love and closeness, and there is nothing else, after the outburst and catharsis of emotions from the depths of his heart just now, Apu is much more relaxed.
She understands that she thinks too much, but a woman's delicacy is sometimes so strange, and she will put some strange thoughts in her heart.
If you put it for a long time and put it too much, some weirdness will brew.
But if there is an opportunity to vent out, a perfect catharsis can often deepen the feelings between each other and narrow the distance between each other.
Abandon these, the other Apu is just worried that Ah Le will learn badly, grow crooked, and whether something will happen outside.
The complexity of human society is not something that a puppy that has just opened its mind can handle.
After reaching a consensus and unifying opinions, and spending a lot of time teaching Ah Le, Ah Pu took Zhang Xiaoming and Ah Le downstairs and could give them an answer.
In the courtyard downstairs, everyone was still chatting lively, and when they saw Apu and they came out, they knew that there should be a result.
Chen Hanlei was very anxious, the time was urgent, and he was about to set off, and he was still making preparations on his side, which was completely dragging the animal training team back.
Han Mingshan advised him not to be too anxious, he was often in contact with animals and was familiar with dog nature, and from Ah Le, he saw the energy and restless vitality of eagerness, so he was not in a hurry.
It was the magical yellow dog that made the final decision, and the girl was also asking for the dog's opinion.
Apu smiled and replied in the affirmative.
Uncle Jiang, who had been paying attention, saw from Apu's eyes that she still had a trace of worry, so he quietly told Apu another thing: there are many groups involved in the mission this time, and there is no danger at all, but there is competition between each other, which is more like a form of competition than a dangerous pursuit mission.
Apu nodded with a smile, indicating that he could reassure the uncle that he could understand.
agreed to participate in the mission, and she also needed to make some preparations for Ah Le.
There is nothing to bring with her at home, Ah Le is not picky, and she has no bad habits, as long as she is treated like a human child, there will be no problems.
In Chen Hanlei's place, she still has a lot of things to explain, because for a long time in the future, Ah Le will always live with him.
Pulling Chen Hanlei alone, Apu carefully recounted all kinds of Ah Le, and vaguely revealed that Ah Le is not an ordinary dog, hoping that he can put Ah Le in the same position, when human beings look at it, except for the appearance of dogs, other Ah Le is almost the same as humans.
Chen Hanlei was very excited when he saw that the matter was done, and the middle-aged man behaved very restrained in the face of the "little girl" who was much younger than him.
The things that Apu explained had already been known in his heart, he had seen more outstanding and demonic animals before, and he knew how to face these magical creatures with some experience.
The girl in front of her kept asking and explaining to herself.
Facing Apu, who changed from quiet and gentle to stern and talkative, Chen Hanlei could only answer cowardly and stammering, and maintained the action of nodding yes.
Chen Hanlei, who is not young, is now firmly suppressed by the momentum of a girl who is many years behind him, and some water shines on his forehead.
Chen Hanlei now feels as if he has returned to his very young age, facing strict parents and elders, listening to their reprimands and teachings.
Glancing at the sky secretly, he found that Han Mingshan was staring at him with interest next to him, and Chen Hanlei hurriedly sent out several distress looks, hoping to get help from his teammates.
But it backfired, and his comrades-in-arms still looked at him gloatingly.
Han Mingshan's idea at this time was to hide aside and quietly watch the excitement, it was rare to have the opportunity to see the joke of "Chen Shi", how could he not watch it for a while.
What's more, he also saw the deep relationship between this girl named Apu and the yellow dog.
It's right to be uneasy, and it's natural to be nagged, anyway, it's not yourself in front, and you're about to separate, so let people vent a few words.
After a lively exchange, everyone set the schedule, and then Uncle Jiang and Uncle Jiang warmly asked them to have dinner here and then go back, it was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon, and they cleaned up just in time for dinner.
Apu also said that he wanted to stay with Ah Le for a while, and then when Han Mingshan and the others left at night, Ah Le could set off with him.
Seeing this, Han Mingshan and Chen Hanlei also agreed, and they also wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to have Apu by their side now to have a good relationship with Ale Lala, cultivate a tacit understanding, and get along conveniently in the future.
In the lively atmosphere, everyone decided to have dinner at Apu's house.
You don't have to worry about the ingredients, the family itself has prepared a lot, and Apu instructed Ah Le to go into the mountains to grab a larger "golden beard white", and the ingredients that can make a hearty country dinner are almost ready.
Uncle Jiang also took advantage of his temperament and shouted to go home and bring a can of self-brewed medicinal wine, ready to take the opportunity to have fun.
As soon as Apu gave the order casually, the yellow dog could understand it, and he could understand the meaning and go into the mountain alone to catch fish, this magical scene calmed the animal handler and the guests who accompanied the county, and everyone was amazed.
After Ah Le brought back a fat wild fish from the mountains, everyone was completely convinced, especially the two animal handlers who came to inspect Ah Le.
At first, the two animal handlers looked down on Ah Le, thinking that if it was an untrained mountain dog, then no matter how good the performance was, it was estimated that it would not play a big role in this mission.
But the captain asked them to come along, and they had no choice but to follow.
When I first met, I still had the first idea: the dog is good, but unfortunately, it has not been trained, and it is a native dog raised in the countryside.
But later, with in-depth observation, they slowly discovered that Ah Le has a lot of extraordinary features.
After Ah Le finished his interaction with Ah Pu and caught a fat wild fish from the mountains alone, they were completely convinced and admired the captain's vision.
After being convinced, because they no longer had any worries, they all let go of the shelves, excitedly joined the lively crowd, and integrated into the happy atmosphere.
As the sun gradually sets, it shines obliquely on the two-story wooden houses in the mountain village, and the curling smoke rises. The lively crowd in the courtyard and the yellow dog squatting next to them and listening to them with their ears bent are all paired to exude warmth and memories, like life in childhood memories.
Everything is so harmonious.
