Chapter 147: The Girl at the Aid Station
After eating, Yang Guo came back from his godmother's house, and went to the baby products store to buy a body lotion for Qiqi, and then came back.
At the gate of the community, Yang Guo got the courier from the doorman for them to collect. The current logistics is still very criticized, especially the state-run postal EMS, the books sent by Zheng Yujie spanned thousands of kilometers of mountains and rivers, and it took several days before they finally arrived in Yang Guo's hands.
When he got home, Yang Guo opened the package with a knife and took out two books - the original English and Chinese translations of "The Fantasy Drifting of Young Pi", and touched the thickness, the English original book was not as thick as "Jobs's Biography".
It doesn't take much time to finish reading such a book.
However, Yang Guo didn't plan to watch it right away, because the next day, he had to go to the stray dog rescue station introduced by his sister-in-law Ji Xiaoyan to have a look.
After searching on the Internet, Yang Guo also has a certain understanding of this stray dog rescue station.
The shelter was started by a caring elderly couple who first rented a plot of land on a deserted mountain plot on the outskirts of the city and built a kennel. They have gained attention for taking in some dogs that have had bad luck.
Because there have been several reports on the news, the stray dog rescue station has received more attention. Many enthusiastic dog lovers enthusiastically donated money to the stray dog rescue station, and with their funding, the stray dog rescue station has been maintained year after year.
Some college student volunteers also helped set up a public page for the stray dog rescue station, where Yang Guo can browse information about it.
Most of the stray dog shelters take in dogs, which are brought in by well-meaning but incompetent people on the streets. Some dogs are disabled, some have been sick, some have been abused, and some have almost become a dish in a dog meat restaurant!
They were rescued and brought here, carefully cared for and healed by this kind couple and volunteers who came and went, and slowly regained their former vitality, and many stray dogs here were adopted back to feel the warmth of home again.
Of course, the rescue station is not just about taking in dogs, there are also some stray cats and other poor little animals, but cats are different from dogs, they are more adapted to stray life, more vigilant, and appear less in people's sight.
Over the years, the shelter has doubled in size, the cement-coated main entrance has been slightly renovated, and the large iron gate has been replaced with a glass door and a pull-down iron gate.
There is a wooden sign hanging on the door, which is engraved with six big characters of "Stray Dog Rescue Station", without anyone's name attached, this kind couple only wants to save the poor dog, and does not want any honorary credit, Yang Guo can't help but look in awe.
Yang Guo didn't go out until more than nine o'clock, it was too early and it was still very cold, Yang Guo carried Qiqi with a strap, and when he came to the aid station, it was almost noon!
Pushing open the glass door of the aid station, Yang Guo saw at a glance a petite, sweet-looking girl holding a notebook and taking notes, she checked each cage one by one, and poked her head with a pen from time to time.
The room that entered the door was not too big, estimated to be more than thirty or forty square meters, with two rows of iron cages neatly arranged on the walls on both sides, and a few simple tables in the middle, so it seemed that the space for movement was not too large. Yang Guo could clearly hear the sound of cats and dogs in the cage making noise.
"Hello!" Yang Guo greeted the girl with a smile.
The girl raised her head when she heard the sound and saw a tall figure walking through a light curtain at the door, as if it was a scene that could only be seen in a movie! When Yang Guo approached her, she saw Yang Guo's handsome and sunny smile, just like she imagined just now, she was really a handsome guy!
The girl was stunned for a moment, then suddenly blushed, and she whispered, "Hello." ”
Yang Guo looked at the girl's dress. Black plush pantyhose, indigo denim shorts, and off-white long-sleeved sweater look very youthful and fashionable, and of course, it is also a bit of a "demeanor not temperature" feeling.
Yang Guo paid more attention to the red vest that the girl was wearing, and the peaked cap on her head, on which the three big characters "Aid Station" were embroidered with yellow thread.
Yang Guo asked curiously, "Excuse me, are you a staff member of the aid station?" ”
The girl was still wandering in the world, a little shy, wanting to see but not daring to peek at Yang Guo's face, until Yang Guo asked again, she didn't react.
"It's not." The girl's head shook like a rattle, and she replied dryly.
"Huh?" Yang Guo was confused.
"It's not!" At this time, the girl realized that her expression was wrong, and hurriedly shook her hand and said word by word: "No, I mean, we are not the staff here, we are volunteers." ”
"That's what it means to come and do volunteer work." Feeling that she had not spoken clearly enough, the girl added.
After saying that, she regretted it again, because the explanation she had just added was like nonsense on reflection. Although the air was cold, the girl's face was still hot, and she felt so embarrassed that she wanted to cover her face and find a crack in the ground to get into.
It turned out to be a volunteer, but Yang Guo was even more confused, he looked around, except for the dog who barked Dehuan, except for their father and daughter and the girl in front of him, there was no one else!
"You guys?" Yang Guo asked with some surprise.
"Yes......" the girl opened her mouth.
Before the girl could explain again, the side door on Yang Guo's right side creaked open, and it hit the wall again.
In an instant, the air flow from outside poured in, with a bit of an icy chill.
Yang Guo looked over, only to see a girl wearing an apron and a straw hat stumbling in, and after coming in, she didn't forget to use her heel to hook and close the side door again.
The cold wind, which had broken its roots, finally stopped, and the falling room temperature slowly rose.
"Apricot, come and help! Heavy death! The girl in the straw hat was bent over, and her hands struggled to carry a black bucket, the bucket was heavy, and her steps were crooked.
Yang Guo walked forward quickly, leaned over, put his big hand on the handle of the bucket, and said with a smile: "You let go, let me come!" ”
"Ugh!" Seeing a man's palm, hearing a man's voice, the girl in the straw hat was stunned for a moment and said, "Okay, thank you!" ”
The girl handed the bucket to Yang Guo's hand, stood up straight, wiped the sweat with the back of her hand, raised her head, raised her straw hat, and revealed a delicate and familiar face.
(Hey, guess who?) )
