Chapter 498: Washing the Cat
"Tom, don't run around, you've soiled the floor. ”
Nia hurried out of the bathroom with an apron on, glaring at the fat cat in the hall who was trying to get under the sofa but got stuck.
"Meow meow!"
As Tom was picked up, a terrible cry echoed through the hall. Most cats don't like bathing very much, and Tom is no exception.
However, for Nia, who likes to be clean, her cat doesn't want to run into her room if she doesn't take a good bath.
God knows how much Tom has gotten himself into living in that old castle, and maybe he has fleas on his body.
"It's useless to bark, you must wash it today, otherwise you won't want to eat dried fish in the future." Nia crossed her hands on her hips and glared at the fat cat who had just broken free from herself and slipped into the sofa.
"Albert, Albert, come down and help. ”
Nia walked to the top of the stairs and shouted to Albert upstairs.
The door creaked open, and Albert put down his half-done homework and went downstairs with his boots off.
As soon as he entered the hall, Albert saw Nia crouching in front of the couch, dragging a pair of cat paws in both hands, trying to pull Tom out from under the couch.
"What's wrong. Albert saw the water on the ground, looked at Nia in her apron, and asked, "Are you going to bathe Tom?"
"Come over and help. Nia urged, "That guy is dirty, and he tried to run into my room last night, it's really me off." ”
"Move the couch first. Albert said, "Come and help." ”
"Don't you know how to use magic?" Nya, letting go of Tom's claws, went over to help move the couch, but complained dissatisfiedly, "This should be easy for you!"
"You can't use magic at home. Albert explained, "You should know. ”
The two of them moved the couch together, and Albert picked up the whole cat while Tom got back into the couch. However, the clothes were also wet with water stains on Tom's body.
"It's really troublesome, don't let people use magic, so what's the use of you learning magic?" Nia followed Albert into the bathroom.
This time, Nia closed the bathroom door and didn't give Tom a chance to slip away.
Albert looked at the puffed Nia and said with a smile, "It's really troublesome not to use it. ”
"You must not have bathed Tom at school!"
"I've washed it a few times, but I didn't wash it for Tom. Albert put Tom back in the tub, and the fat cat immediately struggled in the water, but he didn't like to touch the water, and when Nia was about to bathe Tom with the showerhead, he struggled even more, and if anyone else heard it, he thought they were abusing animals.
"That's not going to work, you wait a minute. Albert put Tom down and walked out of the bathroom.
"What are you going to do. Nia asked, confused.
"Get Tom some food and let him settle down. ”
"If the food is useful, I don't need to call you for help. Nia muttered, she had already tried, and it didn't work.
Albert soon returned, and only took a small dried fish.
"Useless"
However, Nia soon found that Tom, who had eaten the small dried fish, was actually quiet, and it should be said that it seemed to be ...... Asleep?
"I added a small amount of potion to the dried fish. Alright, let's get Tom out of the shower as soon as possible!" Albert casually explained, noticing Nia's surprised expression. He reached out to help hold Tom's head and asked Nia to apply shower gel to the fat cat.
Even if Tom quieted down, bathing a cat was still a big job.
Twenty minutes later, Albert walked out of the bathroom with Tom wrapped in a towel, and then fed him some water with vitality potions, and woke up the cat prince.
"I'm so tired. ”
Nia looked at Tom who was shaking his fat body with a resentful face, and Albert was holding a hair dryer to help Tom dry the water on his body.
"If you're tired, go get some rest!" Albert flipped Tom over and blew on his belly.
"No, let me do it. ”
Nia took Albert's hair dryer and rubbed Tom back and forth on the towel.
"Tom is getting fatter, I thought you were going to help him lose weight. ”
"It's not easy to get a fat person to lose weight. Albert said helplessly.
To this day, the task of giving Tom to lose weight is still hanging on the task board and has not been completed.
Albert took out two bottles of homemade bubble tea from the fridge, handed one of them to Nia, and asked, "How are you doing at school, have you made good friends?" ”
"Of course. ”
Nia raised her chin and said, "Jenny, Shirley...... Well, what do you ask these for?"
"It's nothing, just a casual question. Albert put the bubble tea on the table and went back to his room to change his clothes.
"By the way, I heard Herb say that he wants to promote this. ”
"They're not going to be lawyers, they're going to open a bubble tea shop?" Albert asked with a smile.
"It's not. Nia shook her head and said, "It seems that Uncle Charlie is interested in bubble tea." ”
Charlie is Daisy's younger brother, a half-baked chef who is said to have opened a restaurant in London dedicated to British cuisine.
As for the taste.
Well, the Andersons never dined at that Uncle Charlie's restaurant anyway.
"Well, Uncle Charlie asked me a while ago, what do you like?" Nia glanced at Albert secretly and said with a strange expression, "It seems that I want to come to discuss this matter with you." ”
"Talk to me?"
"Daisy's suggestion is to have Uncle Charlie come and talk to you personally. Nia put down her cup and picked up the hair dryer again to blow Tom's tail.
"She probably thinks that Uncle Charlie is not as good as you, and that he is not as shrewd as you in certain matters, and needs your help in some matters. ”
"Why didn't Daisy just tell me?" Albert didn't think he would be the one to bring bubble tea to the UK.
"You just had a holiday, Daisy doesn't want to bother you for the time being, and you're not short of money, as long as you're willing to buy a lottery ticket, you can win. Nia pulled back Tom as he was about to slip away.
Jean Nia told Albert about this, that is, to get a vaccination first.
After dinner, Daisy told Albert about it herself.
Of course, if Cha Li wants to make money with bubble tea, he naturally needs to pay a price.
It's about 20% of the profit.
Of course, they knew that Albert would not be short of money, but Herb and Daisy did not want Albert to make money through the lottery.
After all, this kind of thing happens too often, and there will always be a day when someone finds out.
Albert agreed.
He also found that Daisy adhered to the habits of a lawyer in some ways, even if it was his own brother, he would not be soft at all.
In Daisy's words, it's one thing to need it or not, and it's another thing to give it or not.
