Chapter Twenty-Three: The Plague Dog
The three-day temple fair ended quickly, and Meng Zhen and Wang Zhihang did not collide with the spark of love as Chen Xue expected, but Meng Zhen still gained a lot. Excluding the bleak first day, in just two days on the weekend, Meng Zhen's persimmons and strawberries were sold for nearly 3,000 yuan, 3,000 yuan, which is equivalent to his previous month's salary.
Although Chen Xue was very disappointed that Meng Zhen had failed again, she was relieved to see that Meng Zhen was having a good time, and when she sat in the car and saw a certain woman who was already happy, she still couldn't help but sigh: It's really the emperor who is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry! She is here to help her find a suitable partner for Meng Zhen's personal problems, but this leftover girl shows her income from the temple fair in front of her.
Okay, she admitted that Meng Zhen earned a lot, but she kept staying in the small mountain village of Zhoujiazhuang? How can a woman be considered a complete life if she has not experienced marriage and childbirth?!
"Honey, don't worry about me, I'm really happy now. I don't want to get married, it's not that I refuse marriage, I just don't want to marry because of the world's eyes and the expectations of my relatives and friends. You all started a family because of love, so bless me to marry someone who loves me......"
Meng Zhen understands that the sisters are sincerely thinking about themselves, but if the two people come together not because they love each other but to live together, then such a marriage will not be able to accept any tests, and she will not be happy, so she would rather wait for the Mr. right who belongs to her.
"Well, as long as you still want to get married!"
Chen Xue saw that her attitude was so firm, so she dispelled the idea of introducing her to someone in the near future, and usually helped her pay attention to it, and besides, a few of them had designated a plan for Meng Zhen, hehe, when Lao Qi gave birth to a child and was out of confinement, he would implement it!
When he got home, Meng Zhen piled all the income of the past two days on the sofa and began to count the money! When I used to go to work, I always wondered when I would be able to live a life of "sleeping until I woke up naturally, counting money until my hands cramped". The former, now it has been realized, and the latter has not come true, and the income has not been saved in the past few days, just enough to live the addiction of counting money.
Chen Xue and Feng Xiaoyan looked at Meng Zhen's appearance as a wealth fan, and the corners of their mouths twitched, especially Chen Xue, she really blushed for this woman who only had Grandpa Mao in her eyes, so she instructed her husband: "Zhao Kai, you go and move a ladder to pick all the ripe persimmons on the tree, and that toon bud, doesn't your mother like toon sprouts mixed with tofu the most?" Xiaoyan, where is the bamboo basket where your sister Meng usually puts vegetables, bring me two. NND, and said that when I go home, I will pick some fresh vegetables and fruits for us, this person is about to get into the eyes of money, let's be self-reliant! ”
Feng Xiaoyan and Chen Xue got along for two days, and they liked her straightforward personality very much, and at the temple fair, I saw her escorting Sister Meng to the blind date meeting to meet people everywhere, and the people in the village were very happy, but I didn't expect Meng Zhen, who is usually generous and easy-going, to have such a childlike side!
When she heard Chen Xue say this, she ran to the kitchen and handed her two bamboo baskets that Sister Meng used to buy vegetables.
Chen Xue didn't say hello to Meng Zhen, and went to the yard to start picking vegetables. Zhao Kai also smiled and went to pick persimmons. Usually the relationship with each other is very good, and even Xiong Xiong does not stop their almost robbery, and continues to lie lazily on the side.
When Meng Zhen finished counting the money, the two of them had swept the yard empty, and finally Chen Xue saw that the roses in the corner of the wall were blooming brightly, so she took a chic flower basket on Meng Zhen's shelf, put some soil in it, and inserted the cut flowers into it.
Meng Zhen watched Chen Xue go in and out blankly, and it wasn't until she moved everything into the car that she eased up: "Xiaoxue, you devil has entered the village, why did you pick all the vegetables, what else did I sell when I rushed to the market?" ”
"Aren't you rich, we are robbing the rich and helping the poor, okay, it's not too early, don't send us, we have to send vegetables to my mother-in-law's house when we go back to the city, and she also likes to eat the vegetables you grow. Husband, let's go! ”
"What? Robbing the rich and helping the poor? I'm dizzy, Xiaoxue, you're too ruthless, the devils in the occupied area back then weren't as thorough as you, why didn't you even let go of flowers. And that flower basket, which was specially made for me by the third grandfather, I said-"
"Meng Zhen, let's go," Zhao Kai rolled down the window and said to the incoherent Meng Zhen with a smile: "By the way, don't forget to take Xiong Xiong for vaccination!" ”
After speaking, the car left Zhoujiazhuang as if fleeing, leaving Meng Zhen speechless: "What kind of injection?" Is my family healthy? This is the police, a whole robber couple! ”
In the evening, Liu Jiajia also came back, and the three of them had dinner and were busy with their own business in front of their respective computers. Liu Jiajia has recently fallen in love with online games and is fighting monsters to upgrade; Feng Xiaoyan is still watching Korean dramas, watching Korean dramas online is much better than watching them on TV, there are no advertisements and the Internet is updated quickly, almost synchronized with South Korea; Meng Zhen is investigating how to raise a dog!
Zhao Kai's words before leaving made her very confused, and she checked on the Internet after eating. I don't know if I don't check, but I find out how derelict I am when I check. People raise dogs as children, but she really raises bears as dogs.
Alas, it can't be compared with others, she hasn't heard of those dog food brands alone, and then look at the price, it's expensive to death. Let's do the basics well, she wrote down the things to pay attention to when raising wolf dogs, and checked the nearby veterinary hospital, searched, but I didn't expect Liu Jiaji to have one. With the address and phone number recorded, she plans to take Xiong Xiong to get vaccinated tomorrow.
The next day, after Meng Zhen had breakfast, he pulled the bear out of the manor, and since the tree inside had borne fruit, it had aimed at the almost transparent fruit. The meal prepared for it was not eaten seriously, but pestered her and asked Meng Zhen to pick the fruit for it.
Hugged the reluctant Xiong Xiong onto the tricycle, spread an old towel quilt in the car body, and watched it sit down, Meng Zhen patted its head: "Xiong Xiong, good, let's go to the hospital, and after the injection, we will give you another 'ginseng fruit'." ”
Xiong Xiong whined twice, and they all came out anyway, so he went out for a walk with the master.
When he came to the veterinary hospital, Meng Zhen parked the car and went in with Xiong Xiong. It is said to be a hospital, but it is actually a small outpatient clinic with a veterinarian and a nurse about forty years old.
Meng Zhen explained Xiong Xiong's condition to the veterinarian clearly, and the doctor also checked its health status, "Girl, you have a good wolf dog." It's only two months old, and it's just that strong. It's much better than the nouveau riche who just left. That guy really spoiled all the good dogs......"
While examining, the doctor chattered with Meng Zhen.
Meng Zhen watched him give Xiong Xiong an injection, prescribed some medicine, paid the consultation fee and remembered a question: "By the way, doctor, is my dog a male dog or a female dog?" ”
Meng Zhen didn't know that his problem was almost the two people and one dog in the house, and the veterinarian coughed a few times, "Ahem, well, you dog, it's a female dog!" ”
Just praised her for raising her dog well, but the result was not as good as the nouveau riche just now, her dog was fed for a month, and she didn't even know whether it was male or female. At this level, the puppy is still alive and strong, what a good breed.
"Oh, thank you!"
Seeing that the little nurse was suspiciously carrying her back and constantly shaking her shoulders, Meng Zhen found that she seemed to be making a joke, and asked Chen Xue if she knew it, but she was laughed at by outsiders and was ready to leave with Xiong Xiong in her arms. But the dog also has self-esteem, and when he found that his owner didn't even know his gender, he struggled down and ran out of the veterinary hospital by himself.
Seeing this, Meng Zhen was dizzy, could it be that Xiong Xiong was also angry? How can it be? Can a dog understand what she says?
She said goodbye to the doctor, picked up the medicine and chased out, saw Xiong Xiong squatting by the car and seemed to be waiting for her, and when she came out, she prepared to get into the car.
Meng Zhen stood by the car with his arms crossed, a little look, and a temper, I see how you get up. The body is nearly a meter above the ground, and an adult dog can jump up, but Xiong Xiong is only two months old, and he may not be able to jump on it if he jumps hard.
Xiong Xiong looked up at the body, stood up and spun around, came to the pedal and jumped hard, jumped onto the pedal of the tricycle, then jumped onto the saddle, and finally jumped into the body under Meng Zhen's surprised gaze.
It's so smart, Meng Zhen put the medicine aside and rubbed its head affectionately: "Xiong Xiong is really amazing, it seems that my training for you is still very effective!" ”
As a result, Xiong Xiong put his head aside and ignored her.
"Oh, Bear, I'm so angry. I didn't mean it, I blamed Chen Xue for them, and I didn't tell me you were a girl when I sent you! ”
Xiong Xiong snorted, cut, and blamed others, he didn't even have the common sense to distinguish the gender of a dog.
Despised by the dog again, Meng Zhen looked at its awkward appearance, unlocked the car, and rode home.
"Wang-"
Meng Zhen was riding the car, and suddenly heard Xiong Xiong screaming excitedly, she thought that the dog had fallen out of the car, hurriedly braked, stopped to look, and Xiong Xiong barked at the side of the road.
"Xiong Xiong, what's wrong?"
It looked strange, its small body leaning onto the frame of the car, struggling to get out. Meng Zhen hurriedly hugged it down, and as soon as Xiong Xiong landed on the ground, he ran towards the woods on the side of the road, "Xiong Xiong, what's wrong, be careful of the car!" ”
Meng Zhen hurriedly chased after him, what happened to this dog today?
When I came to the side of the road, there was a dug ditch below, which had now dried up, and Xiong Xiong was careless, and his whole body rolled down. Fortunately, Meng Zhen was wearing cloth shoes, and jumped down quickly, only to see a gray bear surrounding a curled animal, screaming quietly.
Meng Zhen cautiously leaned over, it turned out to be a dying sick dog: the brown-red hair was stained with mud, the nose was dry and sticky with snot, and the mouth was also spitting white foam, and the body exuded a foul smell-
It's not good, this is a dog with canine plague, canine plague is contagious, "Xiongxiong, come here, this dog's disease is contagious!" ”
But Xiong Xiong didn't move, his clear eyes were full of sadness, and he looked at Meng Zhen almost pleadingly.
"Bear, there is almost no cure for this disease, otherwise its owner would not have left it here. Oh boy, we can't save it! Come here, or you'll be infected! ”
"Wang~Wang~"
Xiong Xiong stubbornly stood beside his fellow kind, refusing to leave.
"Okay, let's try, take it to the vet now!"
Meng Zhen couldn't resist it, and he couldn't watch a dog that was about to die die so miserably, every life should be respected. She climbed up, retrieved the towel from the car, and cautiously approached the sick dog. She doesn't have any research on dogs, otherwise she wouldn't be able to figure out the sex of the bear, she is not sure what breed this dog is, but looking at its eyes, although it is sick to death, but there is still a trace of fierceness, more despair! Meng Zhen looked away, not wanting to look at it, the abandonment of the owner actually made a dog's eyes full of despair.
Draped the towel over its body, Meng Zhen picked up the plague dog hard, and couldn't stop comforting in his mouth: "Don't blame your master, he may have done his best, we will go to the hospital now, even if we can't save you, we must let you leave without pain!" ”
