Strange Life of a Cat - Chapter 151

[Chapter 140 The So-called Fate]

Over there, a group of people walked to several graves, put incense, burned paper, set off firecrackers, and knelt down.

Zheng Tan watched them complete that series of actions, and when he went to the Gu family’s old house, he followed Jiao Yuan and Xiaoyouzi to the grave.

When the people who went to the grave over there were walking back, Zheng Tan was also about to leave, but he didn’t expect to be seen by a little kid.

Among the group, the little boy was very happy when he saw Zheng Tan. It was probably a bit boring to follow his parents and grandfather to visit the graves here. The cat got excited and ran towards this side.

However, before he could run far, he tripped over a large clod under his feet, and when he fell, a gadget in his hand flew towards Zheng Tan.

The child’s mother quickly stepped forward to help the child up and patted the stain on his body.

“The big cock is gone.” The child didn’t cry, but looked very depressed, and even raised his empty palm to show his mother.

big cock?

Zheng Tan looked at the thing that flew over just now. It was a q-version local tyrant gold chicken toy, like a key pendant.

From Zheng Tan’s side to the child’s side, there is a ditch in the middle. The ditch is quite wide, about 1.5 meters in size. There is not much water in the ditch, but there is a lot of mud, and there are still some growing next to the ditch. Withered grass, more in the way.

If it is a young man with strong athletic ability, it is definitely easier to cross this ditch, but now there is no one who seems to be athletic in this group. The middle-aged man who talked to Jiao Dad was wearing expensive formal clothes. On leather shoes.

Very inconvenient.

And it seems that the middle-aged man is not ready to step over immediately.

“Go forward, you can pass from there, go and come back to pick it up.” The middle-aged man said.

The child ignored his father’s words and pushed his mother’s hand away.

Pointing to the opposite side of the ditch, Zheng Tan shouted, “Maomao!”

“Yes, that’s a cat.” The child’s mother thought that the child was just recognizing things and praised.

“Cat Cat!”

“Yes, a big black cat.” The child’s mother patted the dust on the child’s pants, ready to lead him away.

Throwing away his mother’s hand again, the child pointed at Zheng Tan across the ditch, and shouted, “Come over here~ Let me throw over here~”

“Come can’t be thrown away, so let Dad pick it up for you later, okay? ?” The child’s mother explained patiently.

“Let the cat throw it~”

“The cat can’t throw it…” Before the

child’s mother could finish the word “throw”, she heard a soft pop.

The q-version little rooster that reflected the golden light in the sun fell to the ground next to her.

The child’s mother: “…” The

child did not have as many tangled emotions as his mother, and Le Diandian picked up the golden chicken on the ground.

Tried one of the buttons above.

The golden rooster croaks immediately.

Not bad.

It’s good.

So the child grinned and smiled quite happily.

Zheng Tan didn’t intend to pay attention to them just now.

Seeing the child’s appearance, after thinking about it, he still fetched the golden chicken toy by his side, and threw it away with a hook.

It’s not too outrageous to throw a gadget, right?

Zheng Tan flicked his tail and left without looking at them again.

“That cat… Was it raised by the family we saw on the highway?” The old man looked at the black cat that ran away and wondered.

“Isn’t it? There are a lot of people who keep cats here, and now people are open-minded. There are also many black cats like this. Some people even think this kind of black cat is auspicious, so they go to buy this kind of pure black cat.” said the mother.

Although it felt a little weird, the old man and the middle-aged man didn’t talk about this topic any more.

According to Jiao’s plan.

After staying here on the fifteenth day, I would go back to Chuhua City, and the grandma had something to say first, so on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Dad Jiao took Zheng Tan to find her.

A little further away, Zheng Tan heard the sound of pulling the erhu from the place where the grandmother lived.

Zheng Tan didn’t know how to appreciate music, and he didn’t like listening to Erhu very much, but listening to this voice at this time, he always felt a sense of vicissitudes that could not be explained.

When Dad Jiao pushed open the fence door and walked into the yard, Zheng Tan saw the grandma sitting on the chair by the door and pulling the erhu.

At this age, I didn’t expect the erhu to be able to pull so smoothly. If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, Zheng Tan would definitely think that this old woman invited someone to pull over.

Dad Jiao didn’t interrupt Apo La Erhu, and first found a place to sit down.

Zheng Tan looked around. The three-legged tortoiseshell cat was lying on a wooden chair in the house. Compared with the first time Zheng Tan saw it, he was a bit fatter, squinting there as if he was in a Nodding off, but his ears twitched with the tone of the erhu.

There are many gifts for New Year’s greetings piled up on the desk in the house. It seems that many people visit this old woman during the Chinese New Year.

After finishing the song, Grandma put the erhu aside, and Jiao Dad said, “Come on.”

“Well, I plan to leave early tomorrow morning, so I will come to you today.” Jiao Dad said.

The old woman didn’t say much, and turned her eyes to Zheng Tan, seeing that Zheng Tan’s heart started to flutter again.

“Black cat, come here.” The old woman beckoned to Zheng Tan.

Zheng Tan hesitated, looked at Jiao Dad, then at the old woman in front of him, and tugged at his ears.

Forget it, the past is gone, anyway, Jiao Dad is here, this old woman should not do anything that people and gods are angry with.

When Zheng Tan approached, the old woman patted her leg and motioned Zheng Tan to jump up.

This time, Zheng Tan didn’t think for too long, then jumped onto her lap after a pause.

The old lady put her hand into her pocket, digging, digging, and taking out a jade pendant with characters written in seal on it. Zheng Tan only knew one of the characters for “yang”, and he was not 100% sure whether it was “yang” or not. ” He didn’t learn seal script, he just saw a few by coincidence, and most of them don’t remember.

The lanyard of the pendant was reworked and woven into a small loop, just enough to fit around Zheng Tan’s neck.

After the set was finished, the old woman looked at Dad Jiao and said, “Would it please let me save this thing?”

Zheng Tan tugged at his ears again.

You’ve already done all this, so what’s the point of asking for opinions now?

Papa Jiao was puzzled.

This jade looks even if there are not hundreds of thousands.

It is certainly not something that can be compared with dozens of hundreds of dollars.

However, what does grandma give to a cat for such an important thing mean?

People who don’t know will think this person must be crazy.

“I just ask you to help preserve it, if, one day, if you see a person wearing a jade badge like this, just tell me. My biggest wish is to see my relatives before I leave, but unfortunately, I don’t even know if they are still there.” The old woman sighed, and suddenly remembered something, Jiao Dad said, “Can you help me with this?”

Jiao Dad: “…” Your jade card is also set. Having said that, it is only now that you ask me if I can help?

“Help, I’ll definitely help.” Jiao Dad nodded and said again: “But. You are such a precious jade token. It doesn’t seem right to put it on my cat. My cat likes to run around, what if I accidentally lose it? ”

That’s it,” the old woman took down the jade plaque that was around Zheng Tan’s neck.

Hand it to Dad Jiao, “Then you can take it away first, and then give it to me at this time next year.”

Zheng Tan and Dad Jiao: “…” I always feel that this old woman does things unreliable, inexplicable.

“But grandma, I’m going abroad this year, and I won’t be able to come back this time next year.” Jiao Dad explained.

“Then push it back. You won’t settle abroad and not come back, right?” Grandma asked nervously.

“No.” Jiao Dad affirmed.

However, he was not sure that when he came back again, the grandmother in front of him would still be there. After all, according to some old people in the village.

Grandma is quite old.

“That’s alright,” the old woman waved her hand and saw that Dad Jiao was hesitant to say anything, and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t say too much, I can still live after three years.” It

was said that Dad Jiao was embarrassed by what the center was thinking of. He coughed and listened quietly to what Grandma said next.

Grandma came to this village more than 40 years ago. I heard that she came here as a refugee. At that time, most parts of the country were very difficult. Grandma found a place to live in the village alone. After recovering from her illness, she lived there forever. in the village.

“I tried a lot of methods in the early years, but unfortunately I haven’t been able to find them. I didn’t even give hope for a while. Alas. If I can’t find anyone, this jade card will be worthless to me.” Granny sighed. .

Zheng Tan muttered in his heart, since he lost hope, why did he find himself and the Jiao family?

It’s been more than 40 years, who still remembers you?

Besides, isn’t this old woman a goddess?

Can’t you do the math yourself?

Thinking about it, Zheng Tan glanced at the old woman, just in line with the meaningful eyes of the other party.

Suddenly Zheng Tan froze in his heart, can the paralyzed old woman see what the cat is thinking?

Some people say, this person, the older he gets, the more confused he will be, or the more shrewd he will be.

Zheng Tan felt that the old woman in front of her was pretending to be confused.

Dad Jiao was thinking about things, but he didn’t notice Zheng Tan’s little actions, and said, “The Internet has gradually risen these days, and you can use many channels to find people.”

Grandma waved, “Forget it, it’s fate if you can’t find it. I can’t ask for it.”

Zheng Tan patiently listened to the old woman’s nagging, and then walked out of the yard with Jiao Dad.

The old woman is really good at pulling things out. Once she starts pulling up, she can inadvertently stray from the topic, and then inadvertently come back.

What to do with the jade card given by the old woman, Zheng Tan didn’t bother to care about it, and left it to Dad Jiao. He is just a cat now, he can just walk around when he has enough food and sleep.

In the early morning of the 16th day of the first lunar month, the Jiao family and their cat drove out of the village by car.

It didn’t take long to see the familiar bmw emerge from the fork.

Originally, Dad Jiao didn’t plan to stop to say hello, but he didn’t expect the traffic jam on the road leading to the broad road. This time, the two cars stopped next to each other with the windows open.

“meet again.”

“Yeah, it’s really fate.”

Jiao Dad greeted the other party with a smile, and took the business card that the other party took the initiative to hand over.

Zheng Xuan, general manager of a company in Nanhua City.

If the visit to the grave was just suspicion, this time Zheng Xuan was sure that the black cat who was looking at him calmly from the car window was the one they encountered at the grave.

Zheng Xuan believes in fate, but does not easily believe in fate. The suspicious and cautious businessman makes him have to do this.

But as long as you feel that fate does exist, your attitude will be different.
