When everything was cleaned up, the proprietress locked the door, and Xiaoxi nodded faintly at her and said, "See you tomorrow."

"Creek...... the proprietress suddenly stopped her as she turned to leave.

Xiaoxi turned back, a puzzled look on his face.

Unexpectedly, the proprietress just stepped forward to trim her collar, touched the top of her hair, and said with a smile: "Go to bed early at night, dark circles will hang on your cheeks!" Let's go, go back quickly." With that, he shook his hand, shook his head and walked away.

Xiaoxi stood there for a long time. It had been a long time since she had felt such a close warmth, and for a moment she felt a little uncomfortable. It wasn't until the back of the proprietress turned a corner and disappeared into the night that she came back to her senses and continued to walk forward.

The dormitory is next to the hotel, less than 100 meters away, and it is an old community. I heard that it is the ancestral home of the proprietress family, and the last chef also lives here. After the proprietress got married, she moved out and bought a house with her husband in the new neighborhood next door. The husband of the proprietress is an officer in the army, and he guards the frontier all the year round, and he is an out-and-out hero. And when the son grew up, he also went to study at the National Defense University, wanting to follow in his father's footsteps and serve the country. Only the proprietress is the only one who guards this old restaurant and their home.

From her decades of perseverance, Xiaoxi admires the proprietress from the bottom of her heart.

"Tap, tap, tap, ......" the sound of sneakers on the road.

"Didi Da Da ......" followed by a series of footsteps.

Xiaoxi's ears moved, pursed her lips, and shouted helplessly, "Little Black?"

"Meow~" The black shadow behind him called happily, trotted to her, saw her look at herself fixedly, squinted her eyes twice in flattery, stretched her waist, and crawled to her feet and rubbed it. Seeing that the girl was still silent, she tilted her head and flipped over, and the whole cat body rolled to the ground, revealing her belly openly.

Even a person who is as cold as ice can hardly resist the temptation of a furry child, let alone a creek. She squatted down, stroked a handful of the kitten's shiny hair, and sighed twice: "Look at how fat you have been during this time, have you ever beaten Xiao Tangerine?"

As soon as he heard Xiao Tang's name, Xiao Hei scrambled to his feet, with a look of disdain on his face, raised his head proudly, and motioned for her to keep up with his pace.

Xiaoxi didn't know why the little animals he encountered were so ...... Human. This is true for rhubarb, and the same is true for little black. Looking at the expression on this little face, I don't know and think that there is a character living in the small body!

"Meow!" Xiao Hei took two steps, and saw that the girl behind him was still stunned, and urged angrily.

Xiaoxi smiled: "I know, I know, why is my temper so short-tempered! What do you want to show me......" Along the way, there were two subtle cat meows, as if they were conversations.

The range of Xiao Hei's activities is in the big grass behind, and the kind people in the community have prepared warm foam boxes for the stray cats, and put on thick cotton jackets that are not worn, even if the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, the cats can survive the cold night.

The brook followed its footsteps to the foam box, and when it stopped, thinking it was hungry, said in a kind voice, "I have to go home and get food, or how can I feed you?"

Blackie didn't seem to care, biting her trouser leg and pulling her inside, and whispering again. After a while, there was a small call from the cat's kennel, and a few more noises.

"Who's in there? It sounds a bit like a little orange—" Brook curiously opened the curtain of the foam box and looked inside, and sure enough, a familiar cat face came into view. The little orange cat's originally alert attitude softened the moment she saw the stream, and she meowed softly at her, revealing her small paws that covered her belly.

There was a cat cub lying quietly with a strange color. Inherited the genes of the little orange, the whole body is a flower color, but the four paws are suspiciously black......

Black??

Xiaoxi turned his head suddenly, looked at Xiao Hei who was behind him in disbelief, hesitated for a long time and pointed at it and asked, "You...... Your cub?"

"Meow!" Xiao Hei shouted proudly, bypassing

Brook turned into the foam box and furried Tachibana in front of her.

Xiaoxi is really angry, so long to see the two cats fighting from east to west, and from south to north, she thought that the two fathers-in-law did not let each other in order to compete for territory, and they were all flirting and scolding? Or is it to cheat and drink to win sympathy??

Thinking of this, Xiaoxi looked at the two of them...... Oh no, it's the eyes of the two meows that are wrong. These days, even cats are so scheming! The brook turned around and walked away, which would not make the two inside.

Xiao Hei ran out with a cigarette, blocking her way domineeringly, and cursing and swearing in his mouth.

Xiaoxi pointed at it, "Now, I haven't scolded yet, but you scolded me first?"

Xiao Hei's arrogance shrank visibly with the naked eye, and he came to her feet and rubbed it flatteringly, and this rub, the heart and intestines that had finally hardened turned into a puddle of water, soft and unbearable.

Touching its head, she looked at the time in embarrassment, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening, and the little orange inside was still looking at her eagerly. She gritted her teeth and made a decision.

……

Suddenly two domineering non-aborigines lived, and the originally deserted home suddenly became lively. The temperature in Xinjiang Province was very low at night this season, and the creek turned on the radiator, and after a while, all three of them hung on it in unison.

When Xiaoxi came out of the kitchen with homemade cat rice, she saw a warm and harmonious scene of a family of three, and her eyes dimmed a little for a moment.

"Tachibana, come and eat!" She brace herself and beckon. Xiao Tangerine had already smelled the fragrance, and was waiting for her to summon it, but this time the movement was fast, and he rushed to her in front of her, looking up at her with big watery eyes.

There are not many ingredients at home, and the cat rice is a little simple, using chicken breast and beef to puree, add egg yolk and carrots, knead into a ball and steam. Tachibana has a good appetite, and she takes one bite after another. The little black behind him was still waiting quietly even if he was so hungry that he wanted to shed it.

Xiaoxi hugged his chest and looked at the family of three seriously, but what appeared in front of him was a family happy in the capital.

Last night, she dreamed of Grandma Yu again. The old man still looked at her with moist eyes, as if he had a thousand words but could not speak. She wanted to step forward and hold her hand, but Grandma Yu suddenly disappeared.

He left a sigh that lingered in her ears for a long time......
