In the room on the other side—

Hua Shi put the dishes and chopsticks he was holding on the wooden table beside him, walked towards the kang bed, and put the black cat on it.

"Meow......?"

The black cat squatted obediently on the kang bed, with dark blue cat eyes, staring at the flower for a moment.

When he spent the time, he pulled out his exclusive cat bowl from under the table, which was cut with a round bamboo tube and smoothed out of the cylinder, which was about the size of a palm.

This is when the flower is cut bamboo in the backyard and brought back to weave a bamboo basket, he will cut the bamboo tube with his hand, and use the knife edge to smooth the edge of the upper thorn, and give the black cat water to drink, which is a little reluctant.

The mouth was a little small, and Xiao Hei's head couldn't reach in, so she had to pick it up every time and feed it at an angle.

She wanted to go to the small kitchen to get a wooden bowl for Xiao Hei and hold it for drinking water, but the things in the small kitchen, every millimeter, were all calculated by the Li family.

Whenever something was missing, the Li family would soon find that there was no extra wooden bowl to take out.

There's no way, you can't let the black cat drink water every time she drinks water, she can only drink it with this bamboo tube......

"Drink some water."

When it flowers, it will fill a bamboo tube with water and put it directly in front of the black cat's head.

The black cat looked up at her before lowering his head, leaning over, burying his head in the bamboo tube, and licking the water in the bowl with some difficulty.

Listening to the sound of the black cat drinking water, Hua Shi's eyes kept looking at it facing him, the bald head that was too conspicuous......

The black cat didn't notice it, and with the help of Hua Shi, soon a bamboo tube of spring water was all drunk into its stomach.

The cat's legs and the broken skin healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, but the bald area did not regrow hair......

Hua Shi patted its head, touched the bald piece of flesh, and said helplessly, "The hair in this place can only wait for it to grow back slowly." ”

The sluggish black cat waited until it touched the top of its bald head when it was flowering, and then seemed to react.

It slowly raised its paws and scratched its head......

Bald?

Is this disgusting when you spend it?

"Meow meow? , meow meow... Meow meow! ”

The black meow that reacted used its claws to block the hand of the flower, and let out a burst of cat meows.

The tone of the cry seemed to have a bit of anger in it, and the round cat's eyes were as big as copper bells.

It yelled angrily as it rushed to the flowers, "Meow meow...!" Meow meow, meow! ”

Hua Shi withdrew his hand, looked at Xiao Hei's obviously angry cry, seemed to understand the reason why it was angry, and some cried and laughed,

"I don't dislike you, what are you thinking? How could I dislike you. ”

"Meow? …”

It's true?

The black cat screamed a little excitedly, and after being coaxed by Hua Shi for a few words, he quieted down again, stared at Hua Shi with round eyes, and looked at Hua Shi seriously.

It seems to be assessing the truth of what she said......

Seeing that it was in good spirits, she had time to complain that she disliked herself, so it was no big deal.

Hua Shi breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and put aside the noodles that had been on the side for a long time, which were a little lumpy, and picked them up, she ate half a bowl by herself, and poured the remaining half bowl into the bamboo tube for the black cat to eat.

After tossing back and forth for a day, there are too many things happening today, and I am not in the mood when I spend time, I just want to lie on the kang bed and sleep quietly.

After the black cat had finished the rest of the noodle soup, he wiped his dirty hair and paws with a wet and wrung out cloth before carrying him to bed.

A man and a cat, nested on the cold, hard kang bed, curled up, snuggled up and fell asleep.

The night is as cold as water, and outside the closed windows and doors, the howling wind and snow are getting louder and louder......

Listening to the sound of the wind and snow outside the window, she felt as if she was sleeping in an ice cellar, and her limbs were cold......

In a blur, I couldn't resist the sleepiness that swept over, and I finally fell asleep, but it didn't seem to have slept for long, and outside the house, there was a sudden sound of noisy and trivial noises.

When he opened his eyes, through the gap in the closed window, he could vaguely see the small light coming in through the window.

It's dawn......

The black cat, curled up at her hand, sleeping on all fours, was like a small stove, and it always exuded hot warmth.

Hanataki stroked its smooth fur with love and thought to herself in a daze.

She didn't wake up in the middle of the night, thanks to this small stove-like, automatic and infinite heating sticker.

For some time now, Hanatoki has obviously become accustomed to the presence of black cats......

"Click......"

There was a faint noise outside the courtyard, and Hua Shi, who had woken up from his sleep, heard it very well at this time.

Hua Shi rubbed his hands and feet, slowly got up from the bed, got out of bed and put on his shoes.

She has already planned, today's task is very heavy, the sugar bought back with 500 yuan will be processed into frosted winter dates in these two days.

She hadn't been to Peach Blossom Town, which was thousands of miles away, and she didn't know much about the economic development of the town, so she wasn't very sure if the small snacks she made could be sold......

However, the basket of winter dates last time can all be sold, and there should be a lot of rich people in the town......

She thought that when spring bloomed, she would have to take some time to go to the town to explore the wind in person, and then she could make plans for the future......

Of course, this time depends on what kind of attitude Li has.

Although the Li family basically ignores her now, and it is too much to look at her more, but the Li family has an uncertain temperament, who can guarantee what will happen to her......

"Wang ......"

A small dog barking suddenly came from the corner of the room, interrupting Hanatoki's thoughts.

Hua Shi rubbed her eyes and slammed her hand, and suddenly remembered that there was a puppy sleeping in her room.

"Wang!"

The little white dog in the bamboo basket seemed to notice the gaze of the flower.

The head that poked out of the basket retracted a little, and a pair of black eyes looked at her blankly and vigilantly.

Hanataki walked towards the position of the bamboo basket.

When the little white dog saw the flowers, he walked towards him, and his emotions suddenly became extremely intense, and he jumped up, knocked over the bamboo basket sitting under him, and jumped out of it.

Under the figure of Hua Shi getting closer and closer, he arched his thin body, bared his mouth, showed his sharp teeth, and roared fiercely at Hua Shi,

"Woohoo!!"

The unfamiliar environment makes the little white dog unusually vigilant and uneasy.

Seeing an unfamiliar face walking towards him again, it seemed to think of something bad, and it looked very manic.

Hua Shi saw its restlessness, stopped, and did not lean on it easily, for fear that it would pounce directly and bite herself.

"Wow!! ——”

Even though the flower stopped approaching, the restless puppy was still retreating behind him, and from time to time he was about to show his sharp claws when he was about to rush to the flower.

It was as if if if it were to take two more steps in front of it, and it would pounce and bite her flesh off......

Hua Shi was thinking about how to soothe its emotions, and he didn't sleep well all night, and his head hurt a little.

She didn't notice that when she was standing in a stalemate with the little white dog, the little black behind her didn't know when she woke up.

Just happened to see the little white dog grinning at the flowers, Xiao Hei quietly jumped down from the kang bed, cushioned his toes, a pair of dark blue cat's eyes emitted a fierce luster, and made a posture of attacking at any time......

"Woohoooooooooo … Barking! ——”

The little white dog, who has been on guard, is very vigilant, and it is keen, and it almost immediately perceives Xiao Hei's hostility.

And when the little white dog yelled at the flower again, after the little black barked, he quickly pounced on the little white dog who had almost retreated to the corner.

The black cat shadow pounced on it at a gallop.

"Wang!"

"Meow ——!"

I didn't have time to see what it was, and when I looked at it again, a cat and a dog were directly entangled and bitten together.

"Blackie!"

"Woo woo woo ......!"

The deafening scream of the little white dog reached the eardrums.

Hua Shi looked at the cat and dog biting together, his chest tightened, and his heart was so frightened that he almost stopped beating.

"Black!!"

Hua Shi raised his voice twice, took two steps forward, and reached out to pat the black cat's head twice.

The puppy was obviously no match for the adult black cat, and after only two struggles, the neck was grabbed by the black cat, and the whole dog was pressed to the ground and could not move.

The black cat slapped its head twice when it was flowered, forced it to press, and let go of its mouth aggrievedly.

When the flower lifted the back of the black cat's neck, the whole cat was lifted, and there were two slaps in the head.

"Bang Bang," twice, and ate a few sturdy slaps.

"Meow ......"

Xiao Hei, who was pinched by his neck and pinched his face, his voice was dyed with an aggrieved tone.

"Who told you to pounce and bite it? Yes? Last night too, aren't you biao? If you yell at something twice, you're going to pounce on it and bite someone! ”

Hua Shi Erti grabbed its cat ears desperately, which was a scolding.

Although she knew that Xiao Hei was trying to protect her, she rushed out three times and twice, but this kind of behavior, once out of control, if she didn't listen to her once, it was easy to have an accident.

After all, this kind of thing, who can guarantee that it is right every time, she didn't let it pounce and bite, Xiao Hei rushed out in a daze, and after a few times, no major incident occurred.

"Meow ......"

Xiao Hei shrunk his neck, stared at the moist cat's eyes aggrievedly, and screamed weakly.

"Don't pretend to be stupid and pitiful for me, I know you understand, next time without my permission, you don't care about rushing over to ask for others, and if you don't listen, you will go back to the mountains by yourself in the future, don't follow me, do you hear?"

Hua Shi's tone was a little angry.

The black cat was stunned for a moment, and the meow became low, and the buzzing sound was so weak that it didn't dare to scream out of its mouth, but only dared to roll in its throat and whine out.

"Did you hear that?!"

Flower time drank it.

"Meow!"

The black cat hurriedly and obediently responded, not daring to have any intention of resisting.

Seeing that it was wilting, Hua Shi put the cat down, and when he turned his head to look at the little white dog again, it had already curled up again, and shrunk in the corner, looking at her warily.

When flowering, I noticed that its off-white neck seemed to ooze a little red blood.

She knew at a glance that it was bitten out by a black cat, and the bite was really ruthless, and it was just a bite, and it bit its neck and bled out......

Hua Shi's mind moved, and he squatted in the direction of the little white dog, and after a while, the palm of his hand was filled with a handful of spring water, and he cautiously leaned in the direction of the little white dog.

The smell of the spring water really worked, and the little white dog seemed to smell something at once, and his emotions were obviously calmed down.

Hua Shi looked at it and sniffed his nose, and the vigilance in his eyes dissipated a lot.

As she waited quietly and patiently, the puppy, who had calmed down, leaned over slowly, cautiously probing......

Until he put his head in the palm of her hand, let his guard down, stuck out his tongue, and licked the spring water in her palm.

Xu was under the influence of the spring water, Hua Shi tentatively reached out and touched its head, but the puppy didn't react, just buried his head and kept licking and drinking the spring water in her palm.

"Wow ......"

When it had drunk enough, it took time to withdraw its hand, and tried again, reaching out and touching its head, and it did not grin at itself again.

Squatting on the ground, looking at her smoothly, smelling the smell of her palms, there seemed to be a hint of dependence in the confusion in his little eyes......

It's just that when it reaches out to turn over the hair on its body, it subconsciously hides behind it, reflexively, hiding itself behind it.

Although there is not so much hostility towards Hua Shi, he still doesn't trust her so much in his heart, and he is still a little wary of her.

Hua Shi saw that it really refused to let it touch the hair on its body, so he no longer insisted on checking its injuries, and drank the spring water, and there should be no major problems on his body.

Right now, she is also a little entangled in her heart.

At first, she didn't plan to have another pet, she couldn't keep enough for a cat, and she had another puppy......

Hanashi sighed.

Forget it, if you don't raise it now, you have to raise it, and if you save it, you can't throw it out again.

Now it's better to put the plan of making money on the agenda......

Make winter dates into frosted dates first, and when He Shan comes back tomorrow, talk to him again to see if you can ask him to help you sell them, and then give him a share......

"Xiao Hei, you follow me, don't stay in the house anymore."

Hua Shi cleaned up in the house, and after taking the bag containing one hundred and thirty yuan, he went out of the house.

It's just that before leaving, I didn't forget to stare at the little white dog's little black bark.

"Meow ......"

"Follow me out for a walk today, don't run away recently, first raise at home for two days, and then talk about getting better."

Hua Shi lowered his head and nagged at the black cat.

"Meow ......"

Xiao Hei didn't know if he understood it, he tilted his head and walked beside her lap, rubbing around coquettishly and clingily.

There was a weak little white dog hidden in the room, and Hua Shi didn't dare to let it stay with Xiao Hei, for fear that he wouldn't look at it, and the two would fight again.

Anyway, she secretly hid the matter of saving the little white dog, and no one can let him know except her.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to explain even if she had ten mouths......

In the yard, Hua Yu was standing in the snow chopping firewood, while Hua Xiao was squatting by the well, washing her clothes with ice water.

Hua Li was holding a broom and a bamboo shovel, clearing the accumulated snow, and even the youngest Hua Ying squatted aside, picking up the wood cut down by Hua Yu, picking them up one by one, and placing them on the low wall on the side.

For the first time in a long time, it was the first time I had seen the four brothers, working neatly in the yard.

It's just that the expressions of the four people are a little silent, except for the trivial sounds that come from time to time, none of the four people have the intention of speaking.

When she saw Hua Shi and came out of the house with the cat, Hua Xiao turned her head and looked at her eyes, which were a little complicated.

"What's wrong with you?"

Hua Shi noticed that Hua Xiao's eyes were wrong, thought for a moment, and asked.

I don't know if it's because of the bowl of vegetable noodle soup last night, at this time, Hua Xiao's eyes looked at her with a little less hostility and more soothing.

Hearing her ask, Hua Xiao stopped the movement of her clothes, and said with a complicated look in her eyes, "Just now, her milk went out, her face and neck were bitten and scratched, and her whole body was bloody......"

Speaking of this, Hua Xiao's voice paused.

It's not so much that the eyes of the flower are complicated, but that the eyes of the black cat that follows behind the flower are more complicated.

After all, what happened last night is still vivid, and the culprit ...... It's this black cat.

Hua Shi paused for a moment and came back to his senses.

She almost forgot that Xiao Hei scratched Li last night, and she was only concerned about checking the black cat's wounds, where could she still think of Li......

Moreover, the sense of oppression that Li usually gives her is too strong, although she is an old lady who is over half a hundred years old, she does not look old at all.

On weekdays, she is aggressive, aggressive, and physically tough, the key is that she works in the field all year round, and her strength is not ordinary......

Hua Shi didn't think about what the black cat could do to her, thinking that at most it would just scratch her, and Li was so frightened that he let out a series of screams.

On the contrary, looking at the black cat's lame hind leg again, and the head that was forced to be bald, the injury was too serious, and she was not in the mood to think about what happened to the Li family......

Bites on the face and neck, scratches......

Thinking of Li's pretentious appearance, Hua Shi gasped.

I decided to go out with the black cat first and come back when the time came.

If Li was really seriously traumatized by the black cat, it is estimated that she herself was a little frightened, and with Xiao Hei here, she didn't dare to do anything with herself......

"I've gone out beforehand."

Hua Shi thought about it, decided to bring all the baskets of winter dates in his house, and hid three sugar cubes underneath, and after carrying them, he went out towards the gate of the courtyard.

It is estimated that today is also an uneasy day, and when the Li family makes trouble, she can't do her own thing at all, so she can only bring her things and go outside to do it.

As for the tools needed, she decided to...... Grandma He's house went to borrow it......

After Hua Xiao watched Hua Shi leave the courtyard gate, she blinked, looked in the direction of the second brother again, and asked in a low voice,

"She's just gone? When the time comes, what should we do? ”

Hua Yu's hand raising the machete paused, and the sound of chopping wood also stopped......

"Hey! Second brother, where are you going?! ”

Hua Xiao looked at the back of the second brother who suddenly walked out of the courtyard with a muffled voice, was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked......

…
