Strange Life of a Cat

Since you don’t have to pay fees yourself, you don’t have to worry about downtime, you don’t have to expose yourself no matter what you do, you don’t have to worry about being investigated, and you can still have fun, what a great thing. No wonder there are so many private detectives nowadays, the market demand is huge and it is easy to make money. The business of catching mistresses and looking for evidence seems to be quite profitable.

But Zheng Tan didn't intend to do those things. He only helped Teacher Xiaobai because she was very good to Zhuo Xiaomao. At the same time, Zheng Tan also wanted to destroy Zhang Dong. After this matter was over, Zheng Tan was no longer interested. Who else are you going to help do this kind of thing?

Zheng Tan was in a good mood after solving the annoying problem of recharging his phone bill. Even when playing mobile games that day, his claws were much faster, and he didn't make as many mistakes as before, and he got a high score in one breath.

Although he no longer has to pay his own phone bill, Zheng Tan is still active in making cash purchases. Every time he is taken by Xiao Guo to shoot promotional videos and commercials, Zheng Tan is not merciless in accepting overtime pay from Xiao Guo. He used to be impatient with the cats in the pet store. Something always went wrong, and now he wished the cats wouldn't cooperate so he could get some more cash.

Zheng Tan didn't plan to use the cash to pay the phone bill for the time being. He planned to save it for emergency use. Sometimes, even if there is a huge deposit in the card, it is useless if there is no cash on hand.

On this day, because it was the weekend, both children were at home. Mother Jiao was dragged out by some colleagues to go shopping, and Father Jiao was not there either.

Dad Jiao never had an absolute day off. After lunch, he ran to the hospital again. After being promoted to professor, Dad Jiao applied for a good project. Now he has several projects on hand, with many topics and is very busy. Now there are several senior students who are preparing to do research for Jiao Dad, as well as several juniors and sophomores. Some of them want to get more familiar with the laboratory. After all, there is still a big difference between undergraduates and graduate students. The gap between them is that their independent exposure to experiments is also limited. If they want to develop in this direction, they must prepare in advance; while others are interested in Professor Jiao's current reputation and the projects at hand. After all, they can follow a person who has projects and topics to do. Teachers with outstanding achievements, not only the "salary" they can earn in normal times, will also be of great help to them in the future. It is best to write an SCI paper before graduating from undergraduate degree to support the scene. This can not only compete for scholarships, but also help find a job after graduation.

Dad Jiao's reputation in the hospital has indeed improved a lot, especially when there are people above him to help him. There is nothing he can do about it. Those big guys above occupy Professor Jiao's red nest rat, so it is unreasonable not to help him.

Zheng Tan also heard students talking about the teachers in the college several times when he walked to the School of Biological Sciences on weekdays. Once, Zheng Tan heard them talking about who among this generation of green peppers (young teachers) would be most likely to take over the college in the future. A long seat, and among them, Dad Jiao’s voice is the loudest.

As Dad Jiao's reputation has risen, his family's status has also improved a lot. Zheng Tan knows more about Little Youzi. Now some of the teachers in the elementary school are much kinder to Little Youzi. They didn't show any signs of it before. .

At this moment, there are no adults at home, and Jiao Yuan and Xiao Yuzi are not seven or eight-year-old children who have to watch. Xiao Yuzi is watching TV in the living room after finishing his homework, and Jiao Yuan is doing test papers in the room. There are more study tasks in junior high school, and they The children of these college teachers may look very good from outside, but they are also under a lot of pressure. If they don't do well in the exam, they will directly embarrass their parents. Even if Jiao's parents and Jiao's mothers don't say anything, Jiao Yuan shouldn't want to listen to those people. Things like "Isn't your dad a professor at the prestigious Chuhua University? Why are you so bad in the exam?" It's fine even if the children from official families and rich families have poor grades, other students will express their "understanding", but if they, the children of college teachers, do not do well in the exam, No, it can choke you to death if you push it.

Zheng Tan opened the drawer at the cat climbing frame and looked through the business cards. These business cards all had mobile phone numbers on them. The only exception was the one with the number "68" written on it. There was no mobile phone number on it, only an email address. Zheng Tan originally planned to ask This experienced guy was looking for some experience, but he didn't expect that this person didn't even leave his phone number.

Forget it, let’s talk about it later.

Zheng Tan was looking at the business cards when the phone rang at home. Xiao Youzi ran to answer it and quickly ran out and knocked on Jiao Yuan's door.

"Brother, the person looking for you is Brother Xiong Xiong."

"If you are recruiting someone to play, just tell them that I am not free! Ma's stage test will be next week, and I will wait for the top three to slap those people in the face!" Jiao Yuan shouted inside.

Little Youzi brought Jiao Yuan's words to Xiong Xiong, and soon ran back to Jiao Yuan's door and said, "Brother Xiong Xiong said it wasn't about playing basketball, he said it was about buying gifts."

Inside, Jiao Yuan screamed, "I forgot!"

Jiao Yuan quickly opened the door and ran to answer the phone with his slippers on. He saw Xiaoyouzi and Zheng Tan watching at the door. Jiao Yuan, who was about to answer the phone, immediately ran back and closed the door of the master bedroom.

Zheng Tan and Xiao Youzi looked at each other and thought, what other secrets does this kid have? !

After closing the door, Xiaoyouzi couldn't hear the conversation inside, but Zheng Tan could hear it clearly. It seemed that a girl in Jiao Yuan's class had her birthday tomorrow and invited them, but Jiao Yuan forgot to buy it after he started doing the test questions. Gifts, now Xiong Xiong asked him to go out to see the gifts.

Judging from Jiao Yuan's tone, the female classmate must be pretty good-looking, maybe even the beauty of the class. Tsk, what's the point of being embarrassed about chasing a girl? Just say something and shut the door for fear of someone hearing it. But having said that, parents nowadays don’t seem to allow puppy love. Back then, Zheng Tan didn't have such worries and restrictions.

Five minutes later, Jiao Yuan came out and asked Xiao Youzi sheepishly: "Youzi, do you have any money on hand? You can use it urgently, and I will pay you back in two days."

Little Yuzi didn't say anything, ran to dig through it, and found out twenty yuan. She didn't have much money left on her hands. Although her irresponsible mother put a sum of money on her card every year, she never looked at it. She usually saved the pocket money given by Jiao's mother and father. , and after a certain amount, Dad Jiao will help deposit it into the card. She usually buys books and other supplies. A few days ago, the school organized a donation to a primary school in a mountainous area. She donated 50 yuan. For primary school students, this kind of charity donation is basically 5 yuan or 10 yuan, and anything above 10 yuan is fine. It was a large donation. The Jiao family heard about it from other people. Xiao Youzi never mentioned it at home. The donation money was all her own pocket money. She decided how to use it. Jiao’s father Jiao Mom doesn't interfere.

However, because of the donation, Xiaoyouzi didn't have much change on hand. After counting, it was less than twenty yuan.

Judging from the expression on Jiao Yuan's face, he knew that the money was not enough. He bought a new basketball and sports suit two days ago and basically used up all the pocket money he had. The bank cards he and Xiaoyouzi used to save money were all in Jiao's father's place. Of course his father, Jiao Yuan, knew that, so he really called to ask for the card. , two sentences, absolutely exposed the secret, he didn't want his father to know about it.

"There are still coins in the piggy bank."

Little Yuzi said as she went to hug the black cat piggy bank. There were 150 cents coins in it, which should add up to about ten yuan, right?

However, when Little Yuzi was about to take the piggy bank, a cat's paw pressed her hand and stopped her from opening the piggy bank.

Then, under the doubtful looks of the two children, Zheng Tan ran to the cat climbing frame and opened an unlocked drawer, took out fifty yuan from it, and handed it to Jiao Yuan.

Jiao Yuan and Xiao Youzi: "!!"

Jiao Yuan, who had a big mouth, took the fifty-fifty card to check its authenticity, and then said with a look of disbelief, "Where did it come from?!"

Just as Jiao Yuan finished speaking, Zheng Tan took out another fifty note and handed it over.

After checking the authenticity, Jiao Yuan curiously looked at Zheng Tan's small drawer and found a handful of bills inside, ranging from ten to one hundred yuan, "Youzi, our Hei Tan is actually a little rich cat, right?" ?! But where did Heitan get so much money?"

Little Youzi remembered at this time that she heard something from Dad Jiao, "It seems to be overtime pay for Heitan's commercials."

Jiao Yuan and Xiao Youzi were not there when Zheng Tan came back from overtime work, so they did not see Zheng Tan hiding the money with their own eyes. Xiao Youzi only heard a few words when Jiao's father chatted with Xiao Guo. She didn't expect that There really is so much money.

Little Youzi and Jiao Yuan never expected that the money on Zheng Tan's card was much more.

Jiao Yuan just sighed a few words, then stuffed one of the 50-yuan notes into the drawer for Zheng Tan, leaving only the other 50-yuan note on hand, and helped Zheng Tan close the drawer, "Fifty yuan is enough." Come on, Heitan, keep it for yourself and get a wife later!"

Zheng Tan: "..."

Jiao Yuan still worried and asked Xiao Youzi to help and keep other outsiders away from the cat climbing frame. Xiao Youzi nodded cautiously.

Zheng Tan said again: "..."

Zheng Tan saves money to save money in times of emergency, and he is not stingy with giving money to his family members. He is also planning to give red envelopes to anyone on their birthday or during the Chinese New Year. Oh, Zhuo Mao Mao will also give him a red envelope when the time comes. In Zheng Tan's heart, he actually always regarded himself as an elder rather than as a peer of the same age as Yu Jiao Yuan. At this time, he selectively forgot that the "Zheng Tan" who was still a human in this world was actually the same as Jiao Yuan. Almost as big.

Jiao Yuan went out with Xiong Xiong and the others, but did not come back for dinner. Yue Lisa and Xie Xin from the West District Courtyard came over to talk to Xiao Youzi about the blackboard report next week. Zheng Tan had nothing to do after dinner and went out for a walk.

There are many branch roads on the old street, and one of them used to have a place that was busy at night.

Zheng Tan came here tonight mainly because he wanted to see if he could encounter Peanut Candy vs. Pekingese. That guy had recently been eyeing a mixed-haired Pekingese there, and would start a fight every time he went there.

Walking through a long alley, it immediately becomes lively when you step out, with food stalls everywhere.

Every day in the evening, this place is quite lively, full of the atmosphere of the market filled with firewood, rice, oil and salt. Most of the people active here are people with lower social status. After all, those social elites rarely go to food stalls. It's a make-believe, but it feels like it's downgraded. After entering, their expensive suits will inevitably be stained with the mixed smell of cheap beer and cooking fumes.

People who come here will not maintain a arrogant and reserved petty bourgeois sentiment. They will have two large plates of kebabs bought on the roadside, order a table of favorite dishes, a few bottles of beer, talk and laugh, and show their true temperament.

The overflowing fragrance didn't interest Zheng Tan at all. What worried him now was that in order to avoid a drunk man, he stepped on the bubble gum that some bastard had spit out here. What’s even more annoying is that the bubble gum is so sticky that it can’t be shaken off or rubbed off.

What brand is this Tamar?

Paralyzed and disgusting shit!

From today on, bubble gum is listed among the things that Zheng Tan hates, and he stays away from bubble gum!

While Zheng Tan was struggling with the piece of bubble gum on the palm of his forelimb, two people on a table not far away were also looking at this side.

One of the older ones said to the other: "Hey, Ronaldinho, look, is that cat having cramps?"

(6.5) I came back and took a nap in the evening. I overslept as soon as I fell asleep. I was ready to continue the second update, but I didn’t expect that the first update was already 1:30. If I continue to code, I don’t know if I can update it.
