Strange Life of a Cat - Chapter 18
[Chapter 13 Today’s children… how does Tamar grow]
Yi Xin tremblingly explained the purpose of his visit. As soon as Professor Lan heard that Zheng Tan had fleas on his body, he snorted and
said, “It deserves it!” However, after all, Professor Lan went to get Zheng Tan’s medicine, and Zheng Tan followed into the room. .
As for Yi Xin, he was mopping the floor in the living room with a mop.
Professor Lan is a retired employee of the Faculty of Life Sciences of Chuhua University. Although he has retired and no longer teaches, he still has a great influence in the Faculty of Life Sciences. Moreover, even if he no longer teaches, some companies hire Mr. Lan for guidance with high salary. , Lan Laotou has a cooperative relationship with many companies.
So, don’t look at the simple and simple decoration of Lan’s house, and he is very expensive.
Professor Lan has always had a stern face, giving the impression that he has a bad temper and is too serious.
Professor Lan would go to the Academy of Biological Sciences from time to time. The old man was there to supervise the field during the practical guidance of the botany course. Some young teachers were a little lacking in speaking, let alone those students, who dared not let the air out.
No wonder Yi Xin stuttered when he saw the old man Lan. He was promoted from this school, and the experience of the botany course back then was still impressive in retrospect.
So Yi Xin was very curious. Old Man Lan is not the kind of person who can look at people’s faces. Even the current dean of the Academy of Biological Sciences, Old Man Lan would not necessarily give face here. That is to say, it is definitely not the reason of Boss Jiao, but why? How could old man Lan be so tolerant of the boss’s cat?
Being able to let Old Man Lan treat him like this was actually just something Zheng Tan did by accident.
More than a month ago, when Zheng Tan was walking downstairs, he met Mrs. Zhai, the wife of old man Lan. The old lady’s heart was not very good. At that time, the old lady helped an old lady in another building to carry some heavy objects. When she came back up the stairs, she suddenly There was a little sign of the disease, and it was time for work and class. The old man Lan was on a business trip again. When the old lady took out the bottle containing the pills, her hand shook, and the bottle rolled down the stairs. The state of the old lady at that time It’s hard to move.
In the end, Zheng Tan ran downstairs and took the medicine bottle back to the old lady.
The old lady took the medicine in time and quickly recovered.
After that, Mrs. Zhai laughed every time she saw Zheng Tan. If Mrs. Zhai was at home today, Mr. Lan would definitely not dare to scold Zheng Tan. Externally, the old man was very angry, but internally, the old man could only be attacked by the old lady. Of course, when there are outsiders around, the old lady still gives the old man face.
Therefore, Zheng Tan, relying on the support of the old lady, was not at all afraid of Old Man Lan’s tense old face.
Old man Lan took out two bottles, one for liquid and the other for powder medicine.
The liquid medicine is for Zheng Tan to take a bath. It can avoid getting fleas when he goes out to play. Zheng Tan used it before, but after using it, he was too troublesome and never came to Old Man Lan to ask for it.
As for the bottle of powdered medicine, it was sprinkled on the body.
These things are not sold outside. They are all configured by the old man himself. They are all natural and safe. Even if the cat licks into his mouth, it will be fine, but Zheng Tan never licks his own hair, let alone worry.
The old man poured out some medicinal powder in the palm of his hand, and then rubbed it on Zheng Tan Mao.
Zheng Tan turned his head to look at the messy hair on his back, and looked at the old man with drooping eyelids.
The old man didn’t say a word. After smearing on the powder, he slowly closed the bottle cap, put it back into the bottle slowly, and then slowly smoothed Zheng Tan’s hair back. After smoothing, he patted Zheng Tan twice. Get down.
“If you sell this medicine, you can buy a whole house of cats. You said you took such a big advantage. When are you going to the small flower garden to help me?”
Old man Lan didn’t expect the cat in front of him to listen. I understand, he was just making a fuss and slapped Zheng Tan a few more times in revenge.
Zheng Tan tugged at his ears, shook his hair,
ignored the old man who was talking to himself, walked out of the room, and prepared to go back.
Outside, Yi Xin had finished dragging the floor, and was sitting stiffly next to the sofa. Even an idiot could see his nervousness.
The old man Lan handed the two bottles of medicine to Yi Xin, and went back to the room to get a small brown glass bottle, “Those two bottles are for cats, I don’t need to tell you how to use them, just ask your instructor, this brown bottle is fine. There are pesticides in it, 10X concentrated, and you can dilute it when you use it.”
After speaking, the old man Lan opened the door and motioned for one person and one cat to go out.
“That… Thank you, I’ve caused you trouble!”
Yi Xin said thankfully, holding the bottle in his hand, and followed Zheng Tan out.
When he returned to Jiao’s house on the fifth floor, Yi Xin breathed a sigh of relief.
And Zheng Tan is also much more at ease now, and the flea problem has been solved. He feels comfortable all over, and he has nothing to do and tear open a bag of grilled fish fillets and eat it.
However, before the person and cat were too comfortable, the door rang.
Listening to the frequency of slaps on the door and the movement at the door, Zheng Tan had already guessed the identity of the visitor, and he looked up at the ceiling, making it unclean!
Yi Xin didn’t know who was outside the door until he opened it.
At the door are three little boys, about the same age as Jiao Yuan, who are all in the sixth grade of the primary school affiliated to Chuhua University. They are all in the family compound, and a few of them often play together.
Zheng Tan knew them, but Yi Xin did not.
Before Yi Xin could ask, a child said, “Who are you?!” It
was a righteous question.
One of the stronger-looking children also took out a small rolling pin with a rat’s tooth print from his schoolbag and was on guard.
Looking at the three children who were obviously vigilant and suspicious, Yi Xin’s smile froze in order to show his affinity. He spent five minutes explaining his identity, and even took out his postgraduate certificate to verify his identity. .
The three little kids huddled together and looked at the photo on the graduate certificate, and then at Yi Xin.
“The person in the photo is your brother, isn’t it? It’s obviously more vicissitudes than you.” The boy holding the rolling pin said
. Remember to use it next time when you write an essay, maybe you can get more than 90 points.” Another child returned Yi Xin’s graduate certificate.
The three walked into the living room and looked at Zheng Tan, who was lying on the sofa An Ran. This time, they really felt relieved. The cat was fine, proving that the one named Yi Xin was really an acquaintance, so they sat down on the sofa one by one.
Yi Xin looked at the sofa that was no longer empty, and brought a stool from the dining table.
The three little boys sitting on the sofa all looked at Yi Xin, who was about to sit down.
Zheng Tan watched this scene, exhaled a long breath, jumped off the sofa, came to the front of the refrigerator, jumped up and opened the refrigerator.
“Oh~~”
“It’s still black and sensible!”
“The way of hospitality, this big brother surnamed Yi, even a cat understands it.
” I understand, but the problem is that this is Boss Jiao’s house, and I eat a bag of snacks carefully!
Lao Tzu is also a guest!
The strongest boy moved the fastest, and went to the refrigerator in one go, flipping there familiarly.
“Xiong Xiong, I want the mango flavor. Last time I saw Jiao Yuan hiding in the very innermost part, look it up!”
“I want the apple flavor!”
Yi Xin twitched his face. Is this the devil entering the village?
Xiong Xiong flipped inside twice with his little fat hand and pulled out three popsicles.
Looking at the three children sitting on the sofa nibbling on popsicles, Yi Xin asked, “The three children are here…”
“My grandfather said that there are people here. We saw that Jiao Yuan had not been to school for a few days, so he came here. Ask.” said the child who blamed Yi Xin for not understanding hospitality.
“Uh, who is your grandfather?”
“My grandfather is Lan Tiesu.”
Yi Xin: “…” The smile could not be maintained.
Lan Fei Su is the name of the old man Lan.
These three children, one is Lan Tianzhu, the grandson of old man Lan, the other is Su An, the child of a teacher from the chemistry college, and the sturdy one is Xiong Xiong. I am familiar with the principal.
Yi Xin knew that his boss had something to go to other provinces, but he didn’t know what it was, so when he explained, he only said that the Jiao family had something to do and would be away for a week.
“That’s it.” Xiong Xiong was not satisfied with Yi Xin’s explanation, but he finally came here again, and his mother forbade him to eat too cold recently. If he went out like this and was caught, he would definitely be punished again. After eating the popsicles Good to go again.
After thinking about it, Xiong Xiong asked Yi Xin, “Are you from the Academy of Biological Sciences? I have a question.”
Yi Xin sat upright, “Please tell me.”
“I heard that if you don’t eat breakfast, your body will eat shit, is it true ?
What?”
Zheng Tan, who was lying on the sofa, closed his eyes and snorted while listening, “…”
Su An and Lan Tianzhu also looked at Yi Xin curiously, waiting for an answer.
The smile on Yi Xin’s face was a little broken, but he still made this question academic, and after a while, he said, “Strictly speaking, it is not correct. After the food enters the small intestine, the nutrients will be digested and absorbed, and the remaining residue will enter the large intestine. , and then excreted in the form of urine. But the large intestine is not like the small intestine. It has no absorption function and can only absorb a small amount of water and inorganic salts. So even if you don’t eat breakfast, those ‘residues’ in the large intestine are also It won’t be absorbed by you again, so this proves that your point of view is not correct.”
“I just said my mother was bluffing me again!” Xiong Xiong said angrily.
“You can argue with your mother.” Lan Tianzhu said.
“No, I will be punished for kneeling on the washboard.” Xiong Xiong was frustrated.
“What’s the matter with the kneeling washboard? I kneeled on the keyboard two days ago, and I won’t get up if I don’t kneel down on the space bar.” Su An, who was nibbling on a popsicle, said.
“Why?”
“In order to verify whether aqua regia can really dissolve gold, I threw my mother’s gold leaf earrings into it and dissolved it.”
Zheng Tan and Yi Xin: “…” This prodigal child!
“For this reason, my father forbids me to enter his laboratory again, and my mother deducted my pocket money for a month.” Su An hummed.
“Actually…” Lan Tianzhu wiped his mouth, “Is it against the law to physically punish a child? You can call 110.”
“It’s useless, I called it before.” Xiong Xiong said angrily, “After the beating, my mother changed to a bigger one. The washboard came over and asked me to kneel.”
Zheng Tan and Yi Xin: “…”
“His grandma, children have no human rights!” Xiong Xiong sighed.
Lan Tianzhu glanced at it: “Pay attention to quality.”
“He is a grandma, children have no human rights!” Xiong Xiong said again.
Zheng Tan and Yi Xin: “…”
Xiong Xiong rolled up his trouser legs and showed a few people the red mark on his leg.
Zheng Tan and Yi Xin: “!!”
“Your mother is so cruel!” Lan Tianzhu and Su An swallowed.
“No,” Xiong Xiong said proudly, “I pinch myself to cry more! My mother really softened her heart and changed the original one hour to kneeling for fifteen minutes~”
Zheng Tan and Yi Xin: “… “You smug ass!
What a joy!
Listening to the conversation between the three broken children, Zheng Tan felt that he was really naive back then.
And Yi Xin was also roaring in his heart at the moment: How did Tamar grow up, the children of today?
After eating the popsicle, the three little kids reluctantly pulled up their schoolbags and left. UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com reminded Yi Xin and Zheng Tan before leaving, “There have been thieves in the compound recently, be careful, there are already Several households have been stolen, don’t lend out the access card, and don’t let strangers enter the building.”
After the three children left, Zheng Tan and Yi Xin felt that the world finally quieted down.
Boiling water for cats, blowing hair, applying medicine, and entertaining children… I was exhausted after a day.
Yi Xin decided to wait for Boss Jiao to come back and apply for a salary increase!
must!
Zheng Tan didn’t care what Yi Xin was thinking, he was tired now, and the two days were enough tossing him. Thinking of Wei Ling’s words, Zheng Tan decided to go for a run tomorrow.
Rarely, Zheng Tan fell asleep before eight o’clock at night.
Yi Xin used Boss Jiao’s computer to revise the paper, checked the time, it was after two in the morning, stretched out, turned off the computer and went to the living room to sleep on the sofa.
When passing by Gu Youzi’s room, Yi Xin took a look inside, and by the light of the living room, saw the children’s bed in the room, a large Garfield doll was placed in the middle of the bed, and the black cat was lying on the bed. Above, one leg was curled up, and the other was pressed across Garfield’s cheap pie face, sleeping soundly.
Yi Xin pouted, not sleeping!
In the dream, Zheng Tan dreamed that he became stronger and caught the thief.
