Chapter 36: Today is a Good Day
After seven o'clock, the Fujimoto couple returned home on time, and when the couple got out of the car, they were carrying a lot of convenience bags in their hands, and it seemed that they had already known in advance that they were coming to the house and had bought food.
As soon as she entered the house, Mrs. Fujimoto began to prepare today's dinner, and Grandma Fujimoto also gave up continuing to follow the drama and went into the kitchen to help her daughter-in-law.
After changing his clothes, Mr. Fujimoto asked his children to take out the homework they had done today and check it for him until he was sure that they had written all the work correctly and then let the two children play by themselves.
Because most of the things I bought back are semi-finished products, and many of them can be served directly on the table as long as they are heated, so the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Fujimoto family prepared this dinner very quickly, and the four dishes were made in less than half an hour.
The staple food tonight is the bread bought from outside, because there is sugar filling in the middle, so it can't be eaten by cats and dogs, so the cats and dogs in the house tonight, including Mo, eat pet food.
The Fujimoto family didn't have a special food plate for ink, so Kenta picked out the largest one from Xu Jie's food plate, poured it full of food, and sent it to the cats.
The cat food poured in is one of Xu Jie's remuneration for these two advertisements, and in order to ensure the star effect, the cat food sent by the manufacturer is the top one in their factory.
Xu Jie likes this expensive cat food very much, and the taste of it is not salty, not light, and the flavor is very suitable for its appetite, so he can eat up the food on his plate every time.
Just when the family was eating dinner with their chopsticks buried in their heads, Jian Tai suddenly found that the big black cat who came to find their great sage actually sat next to the food plate and didn't move his mouth, just watched their raccoon cat eat.
In fact, this habit was only developed by Mo recently, because most of the prey objects in this vicinity are not small, and many times one prey can be eaten by two cats.
So every time Mo goes out to hunt, most of them are point-to-point, and only catch one, after all, it just wants to fill its stomach, not to kill/kill.
At the beginning, because he didn't know how much Xu Jie had eaten, and he only brought back one prey, Mo always asked Xu Jie to eat first, and then clean up the rest of it when it was full.
Later, this situation slowly became a habit of ink, as long as there was only one food in the encounter, ink would always wait until Xu Jie finished eating before moving his mouth.
But this habit is obviously contrary to the cat's eating habits, so Jian Tai asked curiously: "Hey, why doesn't this black cat eat by itself, but only watches the Great Sage eat there, is it possible that it wants to wait until the Great Sage finishes eating before eating?" Do cats still have this habit, why do the cats I see only grab each other's food? β
Hearing this, Junko calmly sandwiched a chopsticks of fish meat for herself, and said while sending it to her innermost: "My boyfriend and husband are used to clean up the leftovers, don't you see that our father has always done this?" β
Poof, Mr. Fujimoto, who was drinking the soup, squirted all the miso soup in his mouth when he heard this, and Mrs. Fujimoto, who was sitting next to him, hurriedly found a towel and hurriedly cleaned up the soup he spilled for her husband.
Faced with the chaos at the table, Grandma Fujimoto sat motionless in her chair and continued to eat her dinner without changing her face.
It seems that she agrees with her husband on the idea that he is responsible for cleaning the leftovers.
Compared with Mr. Fujimoto's hurry, Xu Jie's side was much quieter, because he had just accidentally swallowed half of the bitten cat food into his trachea, and he couldn't make any sound.
Fortunately, the volume of the half of the cat food was quite large, and it did not fall directly into the trachea but was stuck in the airway opening, and after coughing a few times, the half of the cat food that almost caused trouble was finally spit out.
Xu Jie, who was almost stuck, took a few deep breaths, and then his face suddenly turned red for some reason.
In order not to be discussed, it quietly stretched out its paws and hooked the black cat over to share a plate with it to eat.
After a small turmoil, there was silence at the Fujimoto family's table.
It's just that I don't know why, Xu Jie just feels that everyone in the Fujimoto family sitting at the dining table always looks at themselves and the black cat around him with their spare eyes.
After dinner, Mrs. Fujimoto served fruit and tea to everyone, and Grandma Fujimoto sat on the sofa with Ah Zhong in her arms, ready to continue chasing her favorite series.
Xu Jie and Mo climbed onto the spacious big cat rack on the side, cleaning each other's hair while silently digesting dinner.
Just when Xu Jie licked Mo's back, it suddenly found that the black cat that was lying there obediently with its eyes closed and honestly letting it lick its fur suddenly trembled a few times with its ears extremely fast.
Seeing this, Xu Jie stopped his movements and asked, "What's wrong?" β
Mo Wenyan rolled over, curled his paws to keep his belly up, and then said while motioning for Xu Jie to continue licking: "It's nothing, I just heard that there was something unpeaceful upstairs." β
As soon as it finished speaking, there was the sound of something falling to the ground and shattering from upstairs.
Xu Jie was startled by the sudden sound, and jumped as if he was frightened, but forgot that he was now on top of the cat shelf. If it hadn't been for Mo blocking it with his tail, it wouldn't have fallen by now.
The sound of the beating was accompanied by the sound of a man and a woman arguing loudly, and then the cry of a child after being frightened.
Grandma Fujimoto, who was disturbed, held the teacup, glanced at the ceiling with an unhappy face, and said: "The family upstairs is really a little too much, and the husband and wife quarrel so loudly that the neighbors can't live in peace." The most important thing is that my children are scared and crying, and someone cares about it, and they are still arguing there, which is really good for parents, ha. β
Mrs. Fujimoto, who came out to catch up with her mother-in-law after cleaning up the kitchen waste, frowned when she heard this, and said: "Mr. Sawada's original company closed down last month, and I heard his wife say that the new job doesn't seem to be going well, and the couple should have quarreled over this matter." β
Hearing this, Mr. Fujimoto put down the half-seen information book in his hand and said, "Mr. Sawada used to work hard in the company for more than ten years before he sat in the position of a middle-level leader. Now to let him put down a qiΔ and start all over again, it is indeed a big blow to him, who is nearly forty years old, and it is understandable that he will be in a bad mood. β
Grandma Fujimoto heard her son's words and said: "It is his duty for a big man to make money to support his family, and if he doesn't have a job, he just looks for it, and he can do whatever he can, which is much better than staying at home and arguing with his wife." β
Mr. Fujimoto replied, "What my mother said is that the next time I meet Mr. Sawada, I will definitely persuade him." After all, even if a company needs leaders in that position, it has to examine its capabilities in advance. If you don't do it, how can you be promoted and reused without a way to understand. β
While the family was talking, the landline installed near the entrance suddenly rang.
Kenta, who was lying on the tatami mat and playing with blocks, quickly got up when he heard the sound, and the little chubby foot stepped on the ground and ran towards the phone.
I saw him skillfully pick up the earpiece and put it in his ear and said, "Hello, this is the Fujimoto family, who are you looking for?" Oh, it's my aunt, yes, grandma is here with us, you have to come over, and bring friends with you, I'll tell them, goodbye, aunt. β
Then he put down the microphone very neatly and ran back again.
Grandma Fujimoto, who was sitting on the sofa and vaguely listened to her grandson's speech, took a sip of the tea in her hand and asked, "It's your aunt who called, what's the matter with her?" β
Hearing this, Jian Tai conveyed the content of the phone call just now: "My aunt said that she was going to take her new boyfriend home to recognize the door later, so she called back in advance to tell SΓΉ. β
Everyone in the Fujimoto family was stunned for a moment when they heard this, and suddenly only the lines of the TV series were left in the living room.
Then Grandma Fujimoto's hand holding the teacup began to tremble, and she stroked her chest with her hand to the family portrait on the living room wall and said, "Old man, did you hear me?" Etsuko said that she was going to bring her boyfriend back, which was really an eye-opener for the ancestors. Where are the restrooms? I'm going to recomb my hairstyle, and this hairstyle seems like I'm too strict, and it would be bad if Etsuko's boyfriend misunderstood that I was too strict to get along with. β
Saying that, the grandmother, who was already in her sixties, rushed towards the bathroom with a brisk walk.
Mrs. Fujimoto took out her mobile phone and said to her husband: "Guangyang hurry up and help me clean up the table, how can the things I have eaten be used to entertain guests, go to the kitchen to wash some fruits, and make a new pot of tea." β
Then she quickly broadcast the numbers on her phone, and when the phone was connected, Mrs. Fujimoto said in a hurried tone, "Dessert shop?" I'm Mrs. Fujimoto across the street, and our family needs two boxes of good Daifuku cakes right now, so please wrap them and bring them to me for me. Yes, I still want cherry blossom and mango flavors, please try to hurry. β
Looking at the busy circles of the elders in the family, and then at the cats who were still licking each other on the cat shelves, Junko Fujimoto turned her head sideways and glanced at the date on the calendar card, and then took out a pen and drew a circle on today's day.
After doing this, Junko got up and whispered, "Today is a good day to bring your boyfriend home, I'm going to write it down, maybe I can use it in the future." β
On the cat shelf on the side, Xu Jie, who had watched Junzi's actions throughout the whole process, shook his head desperately at her, signaling that the girl had misunderstood, but unfortunately no one paid attention to it.
Only Mo, who was crawling there to enjoy it, still used his tail from time to time to gently slap Xu Jie a few times, suggesting that he should not stop and continue to lick his hair.
