I don't know what day it was, there was a stray yellow dog in the park. It is very timid, always dodging, afraid of being seen. At night it slept in the board room where the gardener put his tools, and the gardener would occasionally leave half a bowl of leftovers there for it to eat. This is a very common earth dog in the Chinese countryside, with tenacious vitality.

Akang the crow knew the poor "tramp". That day, Akon saw a tall young man driving to the side of the road at the entrance to the park. Pulled it out of the car and led it into the park. He led the dog on the path in the park for a while. Then the young man untied the noose from his neck and took a handful of dog biscuits from his pocket and placed them on the ground for him to eat. He took out another paper cup, poured half a glass of water and put it aside.

While it was eating, the young man quietly departed and walked along the path. Walk all the way out of the park gate, get back into your car, and drive away. When the young man left, the yellow dog stopped eating, looked up at the young man's back, and did not chase him. After that it stayed in the park.

The child who first discovered the yellow dog was Zhang Xiaotro. He approached Akang the Raven and asked:

"Akang, does that yellow dog over there have no owner?"

Akon simply replied:

"It seems to have been separated from its owner and can't go home. ”

"Can I play with it?"

"You can bring him something to eat and ask him if he'd like to play with you. ”

Zhang trotted home and took a steamed bun and gave it to the yellow dog.

The yellow dog was hungry and immediately went to nibble on the steamed buns when he saw them. Zhang Xiaotrot asked it:

"Would you like to play with me?"

The yellow dog is smart and understands trotting. While nibbling on steamed buns, he wags his tail at the trot.

Akang on the tree shouted happily:

"It wills! It wills!"

The trot was even happier, and went to find water for it to drink. After that, he trotted and ran on the grass with the yellow dog, and when he was tired of running, he sat down on the grass to rest, and the yellow dog lay down beside him.

After school the next day, more children come to play in the park. Zhang Xiaotrot introduced the yellow dog to everyone and asked the yellow dog to play with them.

The yellow dog is smart and docile, and every child loves it. If the sandbag is thrown too far, the yellow dog will run over and bring it back. Tarzan has a lot of strength, and when he throws the frisbee, the frisbee flies all the way to the top of the pond and then falls into the water. The children were worried about how to pick it up, but the yellow dog was a good swimmer, so he jumped into the pond, swam over, put the frisbee in his mouth and swam back to shore. Then run to Tarzan and put it at his feet.

Everyone sat down under the tree and discussed the yellow dog.

Fruit Tree Asks:

"Do you know what breed of dog it is?"

Zhang Xiaotrot said:

"In my opinion, it's just a dirt dog. Last year, I went to the countryside to see my second aunt, and there was one in her yard, which was very similar to it. ”

Tarzan Says:

"Then it's not a 'world famous dog'. ”

The crow in the tree, Akang, said:

"Yes, it's a dirt dog. It is not a picky eater, does not get sick easily, is adaptable to the environment, and is easy to feed. The ancestors of the Chinese domesticated their ancestors, and since then they have accompanied the ancestors of the Chinese for generations. Help people take care of their homes, graze and hunt. Maybe in the era of 'Dayu to control the water', it ran around King Yu. It is most familiar with the land and understands the people who live on it. Of course, it can't become the 'howling dog' of Erlang God, it only deserves to live in an ordinary person's house and faithfully guard its owner. ”

Tarzan thought that the yellow dog should have its own name, so he asked it:

"Yellow dog, what's your name. ”

The yellow dog barked twice. Everyone laughed, the yellow dog was not as good at human language as the crow Akang.

Tarzan asked Akang on the tree:

"Akang, do you know the name of the yellow dog?"

Akon shook his head and said he didn't know.

"Let's give it a name. "Someone proposed.

Zhang Xiaotrot said:

"In the countryside, this kind of dog is often called 'Wang Cai' and 'Laifu'. ”

Tarzan Says:

"My neighbor's dog is called 'Odie,' which is the name of the dog in Garfield. Let's call it 'Odie'. ”

The Fruit Tree Says:

"I want to call it 'rhubarb'. Its fur is yellow, and the 'rhubarb' sounds imposing. ”

Everyone voted by a show of hands, and Akang the Raven also participated. As a result, the proposal of the fruit tree was chosen. The fruit tree loudly announced:

"You're 'Rhubarb' from now on!" Rhubarb wagged his tail happily.

In fact, Rhubarb had its own name, which was given to it by one of its previous owners—that is, the tall young man. At that time, the rhubarb was called "Adolf", and the rhubarb was raised by him. It was a misunderstood story that shouldn't have happened.

The tall young man was wealthy, lived in a villa in the suburbs, and drove in and out every day in a luxury SUV. He felt that life was a little lonely, so he wanted to have a dog to accompany him. He looked up some information about pet dogs and felt that the German Shepherd was tall and mighty, and it was the best for him. Then he went to a place that specialized in buying dogs.

There are German Shepherds on a leash in the dog market. The young man went to ask. What he wants to buy is a paparazzi and raise it himself. When the man heard this, he said,

"It just so happens that this has just given birth to a litter of puppies. ”

The young man followed the man to a van, from which he carried out a basket containing six half-month-old puppies. The man said,

"Don't worry, they're all purebred German Shepherds. One cannot be less than 2,000 yuan. ”

The young man chose the one that looked strongest. The man praised:

"Good eyesight. You picked the best one. But it's a little more expensive, $2,500. ”

Young men are very rich, and they have to buy whatever they like. So I paid the money happily and went home happily with the puppy in my arms.

The young man bought supplies for his new pet dog and instructed the family nanny to feed the puppies on time. The young man gave the puppy a "foreign name" - Adolf.

Puppies grow quickly and are smart and smart. However, the young man noticed that he looked less and less like a German Shepherd. Usually the German Shepherd's ears are erect, while it is always drooping. The young man returned to the dog market to find the original seller, but could not find it again.

The young man was disappointed and gradually lost interest in the fake German Shepherd and was unwilling to pay any more attention to it. No matter how much Adolf wagged his tail, the young man didn't want to look at it more.

Later, the young man bought a real German Shepherd from a legitimate source. What to do with the impostor, the young man decided to take him out of the house. So that day, the young man sent Adolf to a park far from his home and left him there.

Later, "Adolf" became the "rhubarb" in the park, and he played with the children every day. Rhubarb thinks that's the greatest happiness a dog can get.

But Rhubarb is a guy who is destined for many disasters. Soon Akon brings bad news, which is related to rhubarb.

Akon said to the children:

"The city is now getting rid of stray dogs. A special dog fighting team was organized to catch stray dogs on the streets every day, with a focus on various parks. It is estimated that they will be here soon. At that point, they will find the rhubarb and take it away. ”

Zhang Xiaotrot said:

"Then let's hide the rhubarb. ”

Akang Says:

"No, I can't. It's okay to hide it for a day or two, but it's going to come out and play with you. So it will still be discovered. Rhubarb must be given a new owner so that he is no longer a stray dog. ”

The fruit tree said, "I want to be the owner of the rhubarb, and I take it home." ”

Zhang Xiaotrot said: "I want to do it." Rhubarb was the first thing I discovered. ”

Tarzan said, "I want to do it too." ”

Now, Rhubarb has three candidate owners, who should be chosen?

Akang Says:

"Let's draw lots. Let God decide who should be its master. ”

The lottery ceremony was presided over by the girl Hua Man. She tore a piece of paper from her workbook and split it into three pieces. Write two words on one of the sheets: rhubarb. Fold the three sheets into identical pieces so that the handwriting on the paper is not revealed.

Three paper squares are placed on a park bench, and the three candidates have their backs to the benches, not allowed to peek. Hua Man reversed the position of the three squares and gave the command.

"Turn around, please choose!"

Which of the three squares should I choose? The three children hesitated.

A voice floated softly in the ear of the fruit tree, like Akang's, but not quite like it.

"Pick the one on the left!"

So the tree chose the one on the left. Tarzan chose the one on the right, and the trot chose the one in the middle.

Hua Man looked at their respective "signatures" and announced:

"The owner of the rhubarb is a fruit tree!"

The fruit trees cheered loudly. Trott and Tarzan are a little disappointed, but they are ultimately happy that Rhubarb has a new home and a new owner.

Akang the crow reminds the fruit tree not to be too happy, and to go home first and ask for his mother's permission. Only if his mother agrees to let rhubarb be the family's pet can he officially adopt rhubarb.

When the fruit tree came home, she made a request to her mother. My mother was feeling guilty about the corporal punishment of the fruit tree for practicing the piano a few days ago. She immediately agreed to the fruit tree's request, feeling that this was a little compensation for the child. In this way, the fruit tree finally became the new owner of the rhubarb.

The fact that the fruit tree became the owner of the rhubarb was actually the result of cheating. The cheater is Akang the Raven. During the draw, it was Ah Kang who quietly gave a hint to the fruit tree, because Ah Kang felt that the fruit tree was the most suitable candidate.

The home of the fruit tree is a large house with a courtyard, which is suitable for raising dogs. More importantly, fruit trees need more care in their lives. Whether this love is for others, or for family, friends, or the outside world.

Although the family of the fruit tree is wealthier than most children, the fruit tree feels more lonely and lonely than other children. His father was away on business all year round and rarely came home. His mother was also busy with her own work, often working overtime and coming home late. Since she was a child, she has been accompanied the most by the nanny. The babysitter is very nice, but after all, she is not a mother.

Ah Kang realizes that due to his lack of love, Fruit Tree's personality is a little more cruel than that of other boys. Now Rhubarb can be by his side. The smart and docile rhubarb can give this child a special kind of help, which Akon can't do.

Mother Fruit Tree bought a beautiful dog leash as a gift for Fruit Tree. The fruit tree put it around the rhubarb's neck and happily led it home. At this time, the crow Akon thought of something and stopped them.

"Fruit tree, have you checked what kind of dog Rhubarb is?"

"It's just a dirt dog, Zhang Xiaotrot said. ”

"Zhang Xiaotrot is right. But it has an official zoological name that belongs to it. Remember: it's a 'Chinese pastoral dog'. ”
