Strange Life of a Cat

Because of the incident with the little cat, Feng Baijin and the other three have become much more familiar with Jiao's father, without the formulaic communication between the landlord and the tenant at the beginning.

The name of the kitten was given by Feng Baijin because the cat always liked to put the tiger toy in the nest and kept barking without the tiger toy. Therefore, Feng Baijin directly named him "Hu Zi".

The name "Huzi" is a nickname of some people. Many people in Jiao's hometown are nicknamed "Huzi", but there are also some pets called this, especially pet dogs. Aunt Li and the uncle were quite satisfied with the name. The little guy has a big head and a strong brain. Being thin now does not necessarily mean he will be thin in the future.

When Zheng Tan went over to take a look at the kitten, the two uncles and aunts were standing nearby watching the kitten play.

"When the people at the pet hospital examined Huzi, they told me that this little guy will definitely grow taller and stronger in the future!" Aunt Li said happily.

"That's just someone trying to comfort you. It's just a little kitten. The parents don't know what it looks like. Who knows what will happen in the future." The uncle sneered. However, Zheng Tan looked at the uncle and looked at it as he spoke. There was a smile in Xiangmaozai's eyes, and he obviously liked it, although the uncle always said that he liked dogs better.

The kitten's condition has obviously improved a lot in the past few days. She is flapping her fur balls and is very energetic.

Zheng Tan watched for a while and then left.

When the kitten grows up, it will probably be restless. Thinking about the leopard cat, you will know that it has good genes. Moreover, Zheng Tan suspects that the leopard cat was probably conceived in a cat fighting ring. If Inherited a fierce and aggressive temperament...

Will this place still be peaceful when it grows up?

A 3-month-old cat is equivalent to 5 or 6 years old in humans, 1 year old is equivalent to 13 to 15 years old in humans, and 2 years old is equivalent to 24 years old in humans. Generally speaking, cats go through puberty between one and two years old, so it only takes one year for this little guy to grow up.

Taking Peanut Candy as a reference, when that guy grows up, he just goes out to enclose a territory and have a fight. I don’t know what will happen when these two confront each other in the future.

Just thinking about it gives me a headache.

After leaving the villa, Zheng Tan did not leave the place immediately. Instead, he walked to the lake and walked along the road.

A fish jumped out of the water in the lake and fell back with a clatter.

Zheng Tan was admiring the scenery by the lake when he suddenly heard several cats meowing in the green bushes on the roadside. They were the sounds made during fights.

He stared over there, and soon, two cats ran out of the greenery one after another. The cat in front was a little stronger, and the one behind... Zheng Tan knew him.

Isn't this the three-legged tortoiseshell cat that Ermao's great-aunt raised? !

Zheng Tan had heard from Er Mao before that his great-aunt lived in a house near a lake, but Zheng Tan never knew which lake it was. When he first came here, he also wondered whether the old woman might live here. , I didn’t look for it carefully at the time, but now it seems that the old woman is really here.

The old woman's three-legged tortoiseshell cat lost one of its legs, but Zheng Tan knew that this guy was very tough and could even catch big, fat ones like mice. Now it has been proven that this guy can not only catch mice, but also catch mice. He didn't even lose in a fight. Didn't you see that the strong and healthy cat in front of him was chased and beaten by it?

The tortoiseshell cat seemed to recognize Zheng Tan. It glanced in Zheng Tan's direction and made no other unnecessary moves. After the cat it was chasing ran away, it stopped chasing and ignored Zheng Tan. , turned around and walked to the other side.

Zheng Tan followed him. The tortoiseshell cat was probably going back. He also followed him to see where Ermao's aunt lived. Once he found out, he would walk around here in the future.

The tortoiseshell cat walked slowly. When walking, it was obvious that it was different from other cats with sound limbs. However, it was not necessarily the same when running. Zheng Tan did not dare to underestimate it.

The place where Ermao's great-aunt lived was a little far away from where Feng Baijin and the others lived. It was also a two-story villa, slightly smaller than the one at Feng Baijin's place, but with a larger yard. Zheng Tan watched the cat climb over the fence and get in. He turned his head and looked into the yard.

There was a wheelchair in the yard, and it was the old woman in the wheelchair.

"Hey, Xiao Heitan, there are few visitors!" The old woman in the wheelchair said with squinted eyes, seeming to be very happy about Zheng Tan's arrival.

Zheng Tan didn't expect to be discovered by the old woman when he showed his face. He really didn't intend to go in to say hello and show his presence. He just wanted to confirm that the old woman didn't live here. He didn't expect that the old woman's observation skills were so keen.

After the tortoiseshell cat entered, he jumped into the old woman's arms, found a comfortable position, lay down and closed his eyes, looking indifferent to everything around him.

Seeing that Zheng Tan didn't go in, the man in the wheelchair waved to Zheng Tan again, "Xiao Heitan, come here, come here and let's talk."

Zheng Tan hesitated for a moment. He always felt that this old woman was weird and couldn't figure out what she was thinking. However, even for the sake of Dad Jiao and Er Mao, the old woman probably wouldn't do anything to herself, not to mention she was still sitting in a wheelchair.

After climbing over the fence, Zheng Tan stopped three meters away from the wheelchair and looked at the old woman in the wheelchair. Facing the old woman's smiling face full of wrinkles, Zheng Tan always felt a little uncomfortable.

"Xiao Heitan, how have you been during this time?"

Zheng Tan didn't answer, and couldn't answer. He just looked at the old woman, waiting for her next words.

"Isn't it hard to be a cat?" The old woman still looked at Zheng Tan with her smiling face.

As for Zheng Tan, he felt a chill running down his back. What did the old woman see? !

When Zheng Tan was tensed up, the old woman in the wheelchair slowly looked away and said in a calm tone: "Have you ever heard of a story? An old Zen master was walking in the Zen courtyard at night and saw a picture beside the wall of the courtyard. Chair, he understood that someone must have violated the temple rules and climbed over the wall. But he did not say anything, but walked to the wall, removed the chair, and squatted down where the chair was originally placed. Not long after, a young monk climbed over the wall and entered , stepping on the old Zen Master's back in the darkness and jumped into the yard. When his feet landed on the ground, he realized that the person he had just stepped on was not a chair, but his own master. The young monk panicked, thinking that the old Zen Master would reprimand and punish him, but he just To the little monk's surprise, the old Zen master neither scolded nor punished him, but said in a very calm tone, 'It's cold in the night, go and put on more clothes.'"

Coincidentally, Zheng Tan had heard of this story. When Jiao's mother was reading an education book, she discussed it with Jiao's father. They called this Tai Chi education, which is like Tai Chi. It can make problems invisible. At this time, silence is better than sound. Listen to the thunder in the silent place. The master's calmness made the disciples feel thunderous in their hearts. They moved from "exposure" to "spontaneity" and from "heteronomy" to "autonomy", allowing those who made mistakes to discover problems and correct their mistakes with dignity.

only!

Under this situation, Zheng Tan always felt that the old woman's words had another profound meaning.

"It's so rare to be confused!"

The old woman closed her eyes after saying the last sentence, as if she didn't want to talk anymore and was ready to rest.

When he heard the last sentence and connected it with the previous story, Zheng Tan's heart skipped a beat.

Under different historical circumstances, the meaning and context of the phrase "it is rare to be confused" are also different. Some people use it to ridicule, and some people use it to educate themselves. The old woman's words clearly point out one thing - Some people understand that even if you pretend, you are only pretending to others.

Zheng Tan is not a qualified cat. Even now, he still can't grasp the speed. If he doesn't pay attention, he will show some details that are far superior to other cats, such as literacy, making phone calls, recognizing maps, etc. But knowing that Zheng Tan Sigh, there is more than one person with these abilities, including Papa Jiao, Xiao Youzi, Er Mao, Fang Shaokang, Wei Leng and so on.

In terms of IQ, Zheng Tan is far inferior to many people around him. He is slower in thinking and will only figure out some things later. However, many people around Zheng Tan may have already noticed that something is wrong, or may have gone to some people. I thought about it in a direction that was unbelievable but close to the truth. It's just that everyone lives in peace on weekdays, knowing what's good and keeping what's dark.

For some people, like Long Qi and others, as long as Zheng Tan is harmless to them, who cares whether Zheng Tan is a god or a demon?

Zheng Tan once heard a philosophy student say when he was walking: Life is an art, but in reality people often ignore its artistry and always want to understand everything, and they can't even get a grain of sand in their eyes. , seems to be smarter than anyone else, but many times what he does always backfires. You can't be smart about everything and care about everything, otherwise you will be exhausted and even lose more than you gain, but you can't be confused about everything. If you don't know three things and are irresponsible, you will become really confused. Zheng Tan thinks that philosophers are just a bunch of lunatics with big brains. They think about what others think all day long and think about things that others cannot think. But Zheng Tan had to admit that what they said did make sense.

After all, this is a matter of "proportion", and Dad Jiao and the others have grasped this proportion very well.

There are many more smart people in the world than people think.

There are many strange people and strange things in this world. In this era, there are not all those kind of scientific weirdos. There are many people who make money from the country under the guise of scientific research. Moreover, Zheng Tan has many people covering for him. Zheng Tan didn't pay much attention to it before. Thinking about it carefully, he has many loopholes, but he is still safe and can run out freely every day.

Thinking about it this way, Zheng Tan felt that life was still full of sunshine, and he was not fighting alone.

Taking a deep breath, when Zheng Tan raised his head, he found that the old woman had left at some point, and Zheng Tan was the only one in the yard.

After leaving the old woman's yard, Zheng Tan walked along the cement road by the lake, walking briskly back to Chuhua University.

A fish jumped up on the lake, fell down and disappeared again, and the ripples gradually subsided.

After returning to Chuhua University, Zheng Tan saw that it was still early and there was still some time before lunch, so he planned to hang out at the kindergarten to see what the naughty kid Zhuo Mao Mao was doing.

Yes, now 2.42-year-old Zhuo Maomao has entered kindergarten.

2.42 years old comes from Zhuoxiao Mao’s self-introduction at the beginning of school - my name is Zhuo Yang, my nickname is Zhuo Mao Mao, I also have an English name, zhuoxiao cat, I am 2.42 years old this year...

That day, Zheng Tan would squat on the window sill of their classroom and watch. It was funny when he thought about it.

When Zheng Tan came to the kindergarten, the little dolls were playing with toys and slides, and Zhuo Maomao was holding a building block next to him. Standing next to him was a strange man in his twenties.

However, as soon as Zhuo MaoMao rolled his eyes, Zheng Tan knew what he was thinking. Based on Zheng Tan's understanding of this little kid, the man who was talking to Zhuo MaoMao in a friendly manner was going to be in trouble.

(5.28) I originally planned to make more updates during the holidays, but I have a dinner party these two days and have to go out tomorrow morning. I will just update once for the next two days to ensure the bottom line. But as promised, the debt will be paid off before the World Cup.

PS: Happy Children’s Day to everyone!
