Chapter 386: Open the Conversation
Shen Zhixing thought about it again, maybe the child really had something wrong, and the world was so big.
Harper seemed to sense that they were discussing themselves, and a pair of brown eyes looked at them, and his fingers played with the teddy bear's ears for a while.
The old man sat next to her and beckoned to Le Bao and Shen Zhixing.
"Come here."
The two children ran over, and the aroma of seafood was already coming out of the kitchen, like another hearty meal in the evening.
Although Harper is cool and ignores people, the old man and her father are old acquaintances on this island, for this kind of flawed child.
The old man's patience was very strong, and when the two children came to him, Harper visibly became nervous.
She hardly plays with her children, not because she doesn't want to, but because her mother doesn't let her.
The old man said to her: "Harper, let me introduce to you, this is my granddaughter's name is Lebao, and this is her good friend Xiaoxing, if you want, you can say hello to the two of them." β
Harper blinked, and finally spoke, "Hello. β
"Hey!" The old man smiled and rewarded her with a small snack.
Harper took it and pocketed it and said thank you.
They also don't know how long the little girl will stay at home, or maybe the parents will come back and pick her up.
The little guest is still at home, although she doesn't pay much attention to people, but she can't ignore people.
Although when he first met Shen Zhixing, he was also cold and indifferent, but he was also a child who could communicate normally.
But this Harper in front of him obviously didn't want to greet them or talk to them.
Subjectively it's not true, because of the kind in question.
Lebao can't get close to this little guy, in other words, it's a cold ass with a hot face against others.
The old man can only take responsibility for it, coaxing the children while coaxing his own children.
Until nightfall, Harper's family had not come to pick her up, nor did they see her clamoring to go home.
In this case, the dinner can only be eaten together, and the table is served, and they have been busy all afternoon today.
The crab, which is bigger than an adult's palm, is burned red and exudes aroma, and the unique Chinese cooking method exudes the aroma of seafood to the extreme.
Harper was also seduced by the aroma from the kitchen, and although her parents were Asian, they were not Chinese.
Her parents are both second-generation Chinese, and almost all of her family have adopted foreign lifestyles and dining methods.
They rarely eat Chinese food at home, so Harper's eyes lit up when he saw a table of Chinese food.
Genetic inheritance plays a huge role, and some foreign children take a long time to accept Chinese food.
Children with Chinese genes, even if they rarely eat, even if they grow up eating foreign food. She also still has an innate love for Chinese food.
Harper looked different for the first time in front of them, she looked at the food on the table, the curiosity and desire on her face could hardly be concealed.
Everyone thought it was very interesting, and Ye Lin took the initiative to ask her, "What do you want to eat?" I'll get it for you. β
Harper paused and said hesitantly, "Thank you, I can eat anything." β
So where her eyes stopped, where the aunt's chopsticks were there, Harper was used to eating with a plate and a knife and fork.
The food and rice were not on the plate, and it looked like a hearty bowl of rice bowls.
As she ate, she had an innocent smile and a sense of satisfaction on her face.
Strangely, no matter how gentle they were, the child refused to show them the slightest affection, but after the meal had passed, she seemed to have been opened with a key, and began to take the initiative to join them in the conversation.
For example, asking them what they were doing at the beach in the afternoon, asking them if they caught such a delicious crab from the sea, and asking them what to do with the crab leaving its child, all kinds of innocent questions arise one after another.
He also asked Lebao where they came from and when they were leaving.
Can you take her with you when you leave?
All kinds of naΓ―ve words make people laugh and cry, Lebao is half younger than her, but she promises that she will not say such innocent and cute words.
There was a confusing manifestation in Harper, and Shen Zhixing was thoughtful but didn't pay much attention to this child's affairs.
The workers' uncles helped them pick up a few hermit crabs on the beach and prepared Lebao and Shen Zhixing to keep as pets.
Raising this hermit crab also requires all professional equipment, the old man made a phone call, and someone sent it to the house at night.
Breeding tanks, materials, shelter houses and other new and interesting things.
Lebao remembers that she had seen such a cutie in the reptile shop, and she had never thought of raising such a little crab.
Shen Zhixing poured cold water at an inopportune time: "This kind of wild pick-up may not be able to be raised." β
The breeding tank is hot, and the bedding has been laid.
Hearing this, Lebao raised his head: "...... Can't you feed it? β
Ye Hui said: "The pet hermit crabs we breed now are generally artificially bred, and wild hermit crabs like this are not easy to feed, mainly because of the problem of environmental adaptation." β
Lebao didn't expect that it would be such a consequence to be enthusiastic for a long time, so he sighed: "Then if you don't get it, we will put them back tomorrow." β
The old man said: "If you are reluctant, we will put it back tomorrow, if you want to raise me, find a professional master to teach you." β
Lebao looked at being asked for advice, Shen Zhixing shook his head: "It's too troublesome to raise this, if you like it, you can raise it." β
It means he doesn't want to.
Shen Zhixing thought in his heart that they wouldn't stay in this city for too long, and they would leave when the time came.
The hermit crabs may not have been able to get used to the environment before they leave.
Or when the time comes, Lebao can bring these little things back to China to raise them together, but the customs may not be passable.
Back to the domestic climate and temperature, the temperature is different, maybe these little hermit crabs will have to go through another wave of environmental adaptation, and the survival rate will simply drop exponentially.
Shen Zhixing took these issues into account.
The thinking of boys and girls is different, Shen Zhixing's simple words and words are considered behind the question of how to raise it, and if you want to raise it, you have to raise it.
Both Cola Bao and Harper thought that if they weren't released back into the sea, they might die at home, which would have harmed the little hermit crabs.
"Then we'll put them back in the ocean tomorrow, shall we?"
Ye Hui nodded: "If you like it, I will buy it for you when I return to China." β
Lebao shook his head: "I already have a pony and a snake, so I won't have other pets, otherwise I won't be able to take care of them." β
Harper looked thoughtful: "If you can't feed it, do you have to send it back?" β
Ye Hui felt that her question was a little strange, and thought that there was nothing wrong with the logic, so he also nodded.
