Chapter 18 The Dutch Pig
When I passed by the pet store, I saw that the store posted a few big words about the expiration of the rent and the tearful sale.
Outside the store, there are empty cages, large and small, and the small animals in the cages are probably sold by the shopkeeper at a very low price to the busy pedestrians on the road.
The shopkeeper muttered to the guy that it was not too early, and there was only one Dutch pig left in the cage, and it was estimated that no one would come to buy it, so it was better to open the cage and let the Dutch pig fend for itself.
The Dutch pig probably didn't expect that the eight generations of its ancestors were human pets, and in its generation, it would have to be displaced and fend for itself.
I gritted my teeth and bought the Dutch pig for five yuan, and Liu Ziyang told me that this thing would pee indiscriminately, love to shed hair, and it smelled very stinky, and he had one when he was a child, and it didn't take long for his mother to give it to a relative's child.
I didn't think about it that much, I just felt that it was better for me than to go out and fend for myself, after all, in this city, it has to solve not only the problem of food and clothing, but also the boundless loneliness. If you don't have a companion of the same kind around you, you probably won't be happy.
Although Liu Ziyang said that he disliked Dutch pigs, when I sympathized with its short life and loneliness, I once again opened my mouth to the owner of the pet store and asked him if he still had Dutch pigs and found a companion for him.
The answer is no.
Liu Ziyang once again persuaded me not to raise Dutch pigs, saying that the life cycle of this thing is not long, it is better to buy a turtle, and if it is not well raised, it will be sent away, and if it is well raised, it can send you away.
I still insisted on buying the Dutch pig, and the shopkeeper continued to clean up the cages outside the door.
Young man, you don't understand this, little girls like fluffy things, and they don't even understand people's careful thinking, how to do other people's boyfriends shout.
He's not my boyfriend.
I'm not her boyfriend.
Our family said that the store had misunderstood our relationship, and that we were classmates and very good friends. The shopkeeper ignored it and walked into the store with a few iron cages.
Actually, I wanted to give it to Wang Yinan. I want it to be by Wang Yinan's side instead of me.
One of the things my dad used to say to me was, "You're too young to control anything."
At a somewhat dimly lit intersection, Liu Ziyang and I said goodbye to each other, and I was going to walk into the courtyard where I could pass by Wang Yinan's house, and he was going to ride that very windy bicycle in the other direction.
The moment he handed me the small cage containing the Dutch pig, we saw Wang Yinan and He Keren coming from the other direction. In his hand, He Keren also carried a cage containing Dutch pigs.
