Chapter 32: Happy Father
When it was time to get off work, Xiao Qi took two packs of cat food from the shelves and put them in a canvas bag.
Mu Yuan came over and asked, "I haven't been able to pay the cat food account for a few days, won't you explain it to me?"
Xiao Qi shook the bag and said, "Give it to a friend." ”
Mu Yuan didn't ask much, nodded lightly and said, "You should tell me, these are all recorded in your account." ”
Looking at Mu Yuan's serious lecture, Xiao Qi nodded with a smile and walked out of the pet shop.
Riding a bicycle to Changjin Park, Xiao Qi put the car away, and walked to the grove to the south, where the black cat moved his home a week ago.
He walked along a gravel path about a meter wide, with a basketball court on his left, surrounded by slides and swings, and a small garden of low shrubs on his right.
Walking to the flower bed at the end of the gravel road and turning left, Xiao Qi walked into a red mud path, through the bushes more than half a person high, in front of him was a relatively flat open space, and there was a boulder more than two people high in the open space that was particularly conspicuous, with a red word "Shou" written on it.
The black cat seemed to have known that Xiao Qi was coming, and walked out from behind the boulder, stepping on the leaves all over the ground but barely making a sound.
Xiao Qi took out a bag of cat food from the canvas bag and threw it over, and the black cat, which was originally moving slowly step by step, jumped out in an instant, like a black lightning bolt, opening its mouth and biting it at the moment when the cat food was about to fall to the ground.
Xiao Qi was stunned, a bag of cat food was about ten catties, looking at the black cat with an effortless look, it seemed that it was a little underestimated to let it carry it before.
Patting the canvas bag, Xiao Qi looked at the black cat with a smile, its eyes lit up, and put a bag of cat food in its mouth on the ground, its dark blue eyes stared at Xiao Qi's every move, as if it was very interested.
Xiao Qi licked his lips, he has seen a dog catch a frisbee, it is too common, it seems that cats also have this ability, if they are cultivated, it will not blind other people's eyes!
With anticipation, Xiao Qi threw the remaining bag of cat food far away, and the black cat's eyes stared at the bag of cat food, and his head turned, but he didn't mean to move.
"Why are you just watching, running over to pick it up, that kind of fighting look just now is teasing me?" Xiao Qi said dissatisfied.
The black cat raised his paws and combed his beard, and said lightly: "It's too far away, I don't want to go." ”
“……”
Xiao Qi couldn't say anything to refute for a while, this is the reason why there is not much difference in intelligence between dogs and cats, and dogs can accept human training, but cats are difficult to accept, because they have too many ideas of their own.
Even if the cats know what to do, whether they do it or not depends on the mood of these uncles.
Xiao Qi didn't plan to pay attention to this matter, and asked the black cat, "What about those of your subordinates?"
"They're not used to it when they first arrive, so they're getting around and getting acquainted with the environment and seeing what dangers are there. ”
Xiao Qi nodded: "Let the children take the cat food back, I have something to do with you, let's go out and talk." ”
The black cat glanced at Xiao Qi, raised its head slightly and called softly, "Meow!"
There was a "rustling" sound from the bushes on the right, and after a while, three fist-sized cats came out, which had only grown up quite quickly in just over a month.
One of the thinner cats, with white limbs and black and gray stripes on his body, ran to him enthusiastically when he saw Xiao Qi and shouted, "Dad!"
Xiao Qi's original grinning expression stiffened suddenly, which made other animals hear, do you want this old face of yours anymore?
He looked at the black cat with a puzzled expression, and the black cat stretched out his paws and licked it: "Xiao Qi doesn't mean anything else, it will only say dad and mom." ”
Xiao Qi looked down at Xiao Qi, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Xiao Qi, you deliberately gave it this name, did you deliberately take advantage of me?"
The black cat bent its head, as if it didn't understand what Xiao Qi meant: "It's my youngest child, ranked seventh, so it's called Xiao Qi." ”
Xiao Qi couldn't help but ask with some curiosity: "There are only three here, what about your other four children?"
"Four were my former children, and they were all sent away, and I don't know where. ”
It seems that the black cat was not born to be a wild cat, and it also has an embarrassing past, and said to Xiao Qi: "You help them take the cat food back, I have something to talk to your mother." ”
Xiao Qi called obediently: "Dad." Then he turned to help the other two kittens, dragging two bags of cat food into the bushes together.
Although it is already evening, the sky is still bright, and it is not uncommon for couples to have trysts in this grove, especially in this restless summer, often people will become a little restless, and when it is dark walking on the grass by the woods, they may step on one or two couples who are falling in love as if no one is around.
When Xiao Qi returned to the gravel path and walked out, he met two couples who came for a walk holding hands after eating.
Walking out of the grove, Xiao Qi came to the swing next to the basketball court and sat down, and the black cat also jumped to his left position, sitting cross-legged on his hind legs, his tail bent to the side, his front legs stretched out to support his body, and his head turned from left to right to observe the surrounding environment.
Xiao Qi propped his feet on the ground and shook gently on the swing: "Don't be so nervous when you are with me, relax when you should relax." ”
The black cat still maintains its original posture, which has become its habit: "What are you looking for me?"
"Speaking of which, I don't know your name yet, aren't you going to tell me?"
"You can just call me Black Cat, I like the name. ”
Since the black cat likes this title that is not a name, Xiao Qi is not going to argue with it, after all, everyone needs secrets, and maybe every cat is the same.
Xiao Qi stopped the swaying swing and said, "I want to ask you for help, I want to find a yellow stray cat with three white pinstripes on its back, its name is Dahua, and it has recently appeared in the Hualin community in the north of this." ”
The black cat blinked, "I can help you find it." ”
Xiao Qi nodded: "If you have any news, come and inform me." ”
At this time, three children of six or seven years old ran over, pulling a two-meter or so dining cloth behind them, they spread the dining cloth on the grass, and took out building blocks, cars and other toys from the small schoolbag behind them, looking like they were coming for a picnic.
One of them, a little girl with pigtails and a floral skirt, ran towards Qianqiu, and when she crossed Xiao Qi, her footsteps stopped, and there was a black cat sitting in what she thought was an empty position, and one person and one cat stared at each other like this.
The black cat stood up and jumped on Xiao Qi's lap, the little girl was not afraid of life, a smile appeared on her face, the two tiger teeth looked very cute, and said to the black cat: "Thank you." ”
The little girl climbed up with both hands on the swing board, Xiao Qi stood up and wanted to help, and the little girl shook her head: "I can do it myself." ”
Xiao Qi smiled and helped her grasp the swing chain, the little girl climbed much more easily, turned around and sat on it and swung her legs, as if she didn't feel enough, she raised her head and looked at him with big eyes: "Uncle, help me push it." ”
I refused to help just now, but I want to help again, and the little girl's mind is really incomprehensible.
Xiao Qi helped the little girl shake the swing slightly, she bent her legs and stretched her legs, and shouted happily: "Oh, fly!"
The two little boys laid out the cloths, took out a kite-like butterfly from their bags, and ran on the grass.
