The pastoral life of the lucky cat

After a while, the room was filled with the smell of food.

The little white cat was originally squatting at the door, but soon he was very hungry and was attracted by the aroma.

When he was on the truck before, he didn't eat or drink for a day and a night, and he got out of the truck to find a water source and drink some water.

He was so hungry a long time ago that he almost forgot that he was still hungry. Now that he smelled the fragrance, his empty stomach remembered that he hadn't eaten yet, and cried out.

"Little cat, are you hungry?" Jiang Qianqian squatted down with her eyes wide open.She stretched out her hand to touch the kitten's belly, but the little white cat took a step back, and he glanced outside again.

It was completely dark now, and it was still raining heavily. It was obviously not a wise decision to go out to hunt at this moment.

"Qianqian, you can give this pot of small fish to the kitten." Grandma took out a large porcelain bowl, and Jiang Qianqian immediately trot over to get it.

It turned out to be a large bowl of boiled small fish, which had cooled down and still had a little milky white soup.

It's summer now, but it's not the hottest time yet.Generally speaking, when it is the hottest time, there is a fish pond in their house. Because the water is not deep enough, it will easily dry up if it is not filled with water in summer.

Originally, they bypassed the pond to plant water chestnuts, but there are too many people growing water chestnuts in the village, and water chestnuts are easy to take care of, and they can't be sold for a few dollars.

So this year, my grandparents discussed changing the water chestnut pond into lotus root. Recently, it was the water chestnut harvest season, so they wanted to take good care of the pond and caught a lot of fish by the way.

Basically, these small fish don't grow big. Originally, these fish were prepared to be fried and eaten. Now that Qianqian said that she wanted to raise a kitten, these small fish would naturally belong to the kitten.

"Meow?" For me?

The little white cat raised his head, and Jiang Qianqian had already put the bowl on the ground.

"Hurry up and eat." Jiang Qianqian originally wanted to watch the kitten eat, but grandma yelled and told her to eat.

The little girl had no choice but to pat her knees and trot to the dining table.

After no one was around, the little white cat finally lowered its head slowly and began to eat the small fish in the bowl.

When he was taken by his parents at the foot of the mountain, he still had contact with human beings, but he was too young at that time, and he didn't have much memory. When he was a little older, he was sent back to the mountain, and he didn't meet people at all.

Uncle and aunt always wanted to catch him to make trouble in the zoo next door and grab the food for those animals.

But the little white cat doesn't like to grab the food of those animals, and has never been fooled again since the past

Today is his first formal contact with humans.

He took a bite of a small fish and opened his eyes wide in surprise.

When he was on the mountain, he would often catch fish in the creek to eat, and the small fish was one of his staple foods, but they were all eaten raw, and he had never eaten cooked ones.

He took a bite, and the meat was loose, but the fishy smell was much less, and it was full of fragrance.

While eating, he looked at the fish in the bowl seriously, and he didn't know what kind of small fish it was, why the fish he ate before looked similar to the fish now, but the taste was so different.

As an unusual little beckoning cat, he eats the bones without hesitation, and chews the fish bones in two or three bites, and makes quite a crisp sound.

"The kitten likes to eat small fish very much!" Jiang Qianqian took a mouthful of rice absent-mindedly, and basically focused all his eyes on the kitten.

"Of course, is there any cat that doesn't eat fish? But since you are going to raise a cat, you have to give him a name. It can't always be kitten or kitten." Grandpa immediately picked up the conversation.

When grandpa said this, Jiang Qianqian suddenly realized the problem.

Yes, even if it is a dog in the village, their owner will give it a name, so their little white cat must have a nice name.

The little girl frowned, thinking hard.

Grandma hit her on the head.

"Hurry up and eat first, and then think about it after eating."

"Ah, yes," Jiang Qianqian was a little excited, "That's called recruiting money!"

The dog next door to the uncle’s house is named Wangcai. The uncle still struggled with the names Wangcai and Zhaocai for a long time, and finally chose Wangcai.

This made Jiang Qianqian feel that it was a pity, and she thought it sounded better to recruit money.

It's just that it's someone else's dog, so she can't say anything. Now that she has a cat by herself, she has to use this name.

The little white cat was still eating the fish in the bowl, he seemed to hear those people talking about him, so he raised his head to have a look.

In the end, he only heard the word Zhaocai, which made his ears stand up in fright. Did they know something?

He had no idea that he had been given another earthy name.

After dinner, Jiang Qianqian took away the little white cat's bowl, washed it, and put it on the top of the cupboard. From now on, it will be a small bowl for fortune.

Jiang Qianqian seemed to have thought of something, she took down the bowl and took a little water, and brought it to the little white cat, who really lowered his head and started to lick the water to drink.

Seeing that the little white cat stopped drinking water, Jiang Qianqian thought for a while and put the bowl aside. She wasn't going to put the bowl away, in case Zhaocai got thirsty again, he could drink the water here.

"Fortune." Jiang Qianqian called out to the little white cat.

Little white cat:?

The little white cat's eyes widened. How did he know that he was a beckoning cat? Does this human have any magical powers?

"I forgot to tell you, I named you Zhaocai, I will always call you Zhaocai from now on, okay?" Although Jiang Qianqian spoke in a discussing tone, it was actually a matter that cannot be discussed. fact.

The little white cat heaved a sigh of relief. It turned out that he just gave him a name, but he didn't expect her to name it so accurately.

The little white cat wanted to protest, he had his own name.

He yelled and found himself making a "meow" sound, which was obviously incomprehensible to the human being in front of him.

So the little white cat had no choice but to accept the new name silently.

Overall... there's nothing wrong with the name either.

"We'll be friends from now on, Zhaocai!" Jiang Qianqian was much more courageous now, because she found that Zhaocai was actually a kitten with a good temper.

So she boldly stretched out her two hands, pinched the little white cat's cheek and rubbed it.

The little white cat, whose face was deformed by rubbing, frowned slightly. The way humans greet each other is really weird.

comfortable.Jiang Qianqian straightened up very satisfied.

……

Jiang Qianqian is seven years old this year, but she has only been in kindergarten for one year.

The situation of their family can only send their children to the kindergarten in the town at best, and the environment of the kindergarten in the town is really average.

Because there are very few people around here, even the kindergarten in the town has only two or three classes, and preschool children of any age are placed there to study.

It is said that I went to study, but it is better to say that it is a nursery school. By the way, I will make some friends there and play together.

Jiang Qianqian stayed at home until she was six years old. Anyway, her grandfather can read and write. It is not difficult to teach her pre-school knowledge. I only sent her in last year, not to learn anything, but to let her adapt to school. Life.

Because there are too few children nearby, the primary school is a little further away than the kindergarten.

Originally, there was an elementary school in the village, but now it is deserted, and children who want to go to school have to go to a school further away.

Now in the village, children of school age are usually taken to the place where their parents work, and those who have no choice will go to the elementary school there. The time spent on the road every day is almost three hours.

Jiang Qianqian was scheduled to go to her parents' side when she was in elementary school.

Although grandma agreed to keep the cat, she was still a somewhat old-fashioned person after all, so she didn't agree with Jiang Qianqian taking the cat upstairs to the bedroom.

So Qianqian had no choice but to take off her childhood clothes and make a temporary cat litter for him.

The little white cat squatted down on the cat's nest. Seeing that these people had all gone upstairs, it slowly stood up and squatted down on the stool again.

It's so hot in summer, it's a bit too hot to squat on furry clothes.

Although the little white cat slept on the truck for a long time, he never rested after getting off the truck, and his physical strength as a cat was almost at its limit.He stretched and closed his eyes.

……

The weather finally cleared up today. When Jiang Qianqian went downstairs, she found that the little white cat had already woken up.

He walked around on the ground a little anxiously, and began to pull on the door. Jiang Qianqian quickly opened it.

The little white cat rushed out quickly, ran to the field next to it, went to the toilet, and slowly covered those things with soil.

Because of the rain yesterday, he didn't take a good look around here.

Now the rain stopped and the sky cleared up. After he went to the toilet, he finally had a clear view of the surrounding scenery.

The first thing he saw was the mountains about 200 meters away from Jiang Qianqian's house in the south, but these mountains didn't look very high, only [-] meters.

He is now in the front yard. The front yard is a vegetable field full of various vegetables. There is a narrow river to the east. At this moment, ducks and roosters can be heard. Ducks and geese are raised in the backyard.

Across the small river, as far as the eye can see, there are patches of rice fields, with a few families dotted here and there.

There are quite a few people in front, but it's a bit far away, but the neighbors to the west are quite close.

The little white cat didn't know much about human society when he first entered the human society. He was just a little surprised. He had seen many places where humans lived on the truck.

Jiang Qianqian's house seemed to be a little different from the places he saw. The people he saw seemed to be crowded together, and their appearance was a bit stranger, without so many flowers and trees.

There is no concrete road here, and the side road is just a dirt road mixed with some gravel and bricks.
