When Niu Niu was placed in a transparent cubicle dedicated to foster cats in the teahouse, every day she was the first guest to check in after Wang Jiani.
"Bad Baiyin, I'm here!" The first time she came in, she rushed towards Jinjira in the group of cats.
The pure white Persian cat that was still lying in the cat basin before was caught, and when it was pressed into the arms, it had conditioned reflex to stick to the ear of the plane, and the next second, the little fluffy head was connected and slapped several times.
Until she became impatient with the kiss, Jinjira pressed a pad of flesh on Wang Jia's mouth and pouted her kiss: "Meow!" (It's almost done, minion!)
The body language of the refusal can understand the meaning of the kitten even without translation.
"Then don't kiss." The eldest lady, who has always been naive and self-conscious, has absolutely no temper with this kitten. She hugged it and walked in, her tone tolerant and doting, "I'll brush you!"
After combing Baiyin for so many days, Miss Wang already has a lot of experience in brushing and styling long-haired cats. She has not even learned the two or three styles of cat brushing by herself. The clumsy look when brushing.
Song Xinmin, who had watched the whole process: "..."
Although he has been working in this cat tea house for a while, he still cannot understand the mentality of the cat slaves. He always feels that when these tea guests including Miss Wang see the cat, they will be lowered their heads. What kind of temperament is usually, when you touch the cat, the style of painting changes greatly and there is no principle.
Every time he sees their performance, he thinks that the jokes on the Internet that some cats want to rule the earth through humans are not groundless.
Of course, the above is just what I think about in my head, and I will never say it.
Maybe it was because he stared at him for a long time, and Wang Jiayan, who felt the sight, hugged the cat and looked back at him, and his face that was still smiling before immediately pouted in displeasure: "I think you are thinking in your mind. My bad words."
"No." Song Xinmin immediately denied it, and picked up the mop in his hand and continued to clean it in a serious manner.
The eldest lady frowned. Just as she was about to say something, Lin Lan had already come out of the foster care cubicle, and when she saw Wang Jiajia, she handed a silicone brush: "Today, a foster child came to the cubicle. Cat, just be careful with Miss Wang."
Yes, the foster cubicle is also a special place for cats to be groomed. It's not bad in winter now. In the spring and autumn shedding season, we won't be separated and groomed. I can't imagine what kind of flying hair these dozen cats will bring to the teahouse. disaster. Seeing that Miss Wang was holding her heart so she could start serving her routinely, Lin Lan reminded her a little.
But she forgot about the possibility that something might happen to two squeamish cats in the same room.
In the small isolation room, the blue cat Niuniu had been taken out of the narrow cat bag by Lin Lan and put into a comfortable big cat cage with two floors.
Just learned from the mouth of the human who can communicate with cats that she is going to go hunting this time, and she will not come home for three days, Niuniu has been in a shock and a trance.
For three days, it has never been separated from the servants at home for so long.
I'm not used to it, I'm so nervous.
It's alright for you to come back, minion. After the big deal, you can put your hand into its belly to keep it warm and it won't bite again.
Otherwise... Won't you deliberately push the things off the edge of the table next time
And when you call it again, will it be okay if it doesn't pretend that it doesn't hear it and ignores people
Knowing that Qian Xuan had to go on a dangerous long-distance hunting trip, Niu Niu was rarely panicked. If Lin Lan hadn't made sure that Qian Xuan would come back in three days, this blue cat would have been running around in a hurry and tried to escape. It's not like lying in a cat's nest in a cage like he is now, flicking his tail feebly.
The simple kitten didn't know that its appearance was secretly recorded by a sinister human with a mobile phone and sent to its shovel officer. In a sullen mood, he saw a strange human being holding another strange cat in. Room.
Through the gap in the cage, Niu Niu could clearly see that the same kind was placed on the cushion by the human, and then… lay down and let her hair be brushed.
Wang Jiayi's movements are gentle and skilled, and her cat-stroking skills are no longer at the level of a novice when she first appeared. Bai Yin was combed by her so that she could lie down and pose, touch her stomach and tail casually, and even spread her limbs into a cat cake shape. Smooth hair.
"Snort..." The bubbling little snorer had already started fighting.
When Wang Jiayi stopped moving, the Persian cat even stretched out its small paws to hold her hand, and called at her tenderly: "Mi woo!" (Minions, don't stop, do it again.)
"Okay, I'll comb it again for obediently." Miss Wang agreed unprincipally, and the little arrogance that always appears when dealing with people is completely invisible now.
Head down very deep.
Outside the cage, one person and one cat had a good time licking and combing, and Niu Niu, who had just left the shit shoveling officer in the cage, was very upset when she saw this scene.
"Meow!" It stood up and called out to the cage.
Wang Jiamin, who was having a good time with the cat, remembered that Manager Lin had said that there were other cats in the compartment. It was not until she saw a blue cat in it that she realized that the empty cages in the room were real. Not for decoration.
"It's a blue cat..." she murmured casually.
"Meow!" The blue cat in the cage was still screaming, one paw even hooked on the gap fence of the cage. (It's a terrible technique, and it can't be compared with the way my servants serve!)
Wang Jiajia didn't know what the cat was meowing, but from the condescending look in his contemptuous eyes, he felt that the meowing sound was not a good thing. Bai Yin, who had been lying obediently in front of him, suddenly got up with a grunt, raised his head and called to the blue cat.
At first, the two cats were still pulling their throats and meowing and growling, and then the sound became more and more gunpowder, and developed into a threatening hissing and haha.
Miss Wang, who had never encountered such a situation, was at a loss. Seeing that the two cats began to concentrate on their quarrel, she hurriedly got up, pushed the door and ran out of the cubicle to rescue soldiers.
"It's not good, it's not good!" Lin Lan, who was staying in the water bar and prepared her share of cakes in advance, heard such a voice, "Silver and the foster blue cat in the room are fighting!"
Lin Lan immediately took off her gloves, and when she walked out of the water bar, she saw the eldest lady's panicked face, and stammered for help: "No, I don't know why, the two cats suddenly quarreled." She had no doubt that if there were cages separating them Well, the two cats will definitely fight at this time.
Passing Wang Jiayi, Lin Lan hurried over. Her cat has always been well-behaved, and it should be impossible to take the initiative to pick things up, so the rest of the situation could only be Niuniu's problem. Was it because she knew that Qian Xuan was not around for three days and was in a panic that she started to make trouble? Or say something else...
"Meow ow!" (In addition to brushing my hair, my servants will also give me all kinds of dried fish and snacks. I dropped her favorite cup and would be reluctant to hit me!)
"Woooooooo!" (In addition to combing my hair, my minions would hug me and feed me every day. When I ride on her head, she will only be afraid that I will fall. She will buy me whatever I want!)
"Hi-" (My slave will warm me up in winter!)
"Ha-" (My servant treats me as a human flesh mat every day!)
Before the door was opened, Lin Lan heard the quarrel of the two cats with the ears of the plane arguing. There is a fierce battle.
But Lin Lan, who could understand cat language, only had a string of ellipses to express her mood.
The cat owners are fighting for the name of their minions, should she step up to interrupt or just let it go
After thinking for less than a second, Manager Lin pushed the door directly into the room. She didn't restrain her movement, and when she stepped in, she startled the two cats, which was also intentional.
"Okay, alright, stop arguing." Picking up Jinjira from the ground, Lin Lan reluctantly said to the two cats, "You guys are all good shit shovelers, and they love you equally. Yes, there is no need to distinguish between high and low."
Jinjira in her arms immediately complained of grievance, and her voice replied in a second: "Mi woo!" (Lan Lan, this stinky cat said that my exclusive minion's grooming skills were not as good as theirs, and it made me mad!)
"Then you can continue teaching. She comes every day, and she will soon learn how to take care of you." Lin Lan reassured him, then looked up at the blue cat in the cage, "Don't lose your temper, Niuniu. Knowing that you miss Qian Xuan, I will communicate with her during lunch and let you meet her."
After a few words, the two cats calmed down. Lin Lan also walked out of the compartment and handed the Persian cat to Wang Jiani, who had been waiting nervously.
"You really scared me to death." The eldest lady hugged the cat lovingly and rubbed her face, talking to the cat as she walked away, "Why don't we quarrel with it, this is barbaric behavior, we don't learn, Be classy…”
Regardless of whether the eldest lady's elegant theory can be instilled in the Persian cat, Lin Lan, who was standing still, glanced at the two of them, then glanced back at the compartment, and shook her head with a smile.
These two squeamish cats who always seem to be a minion and don't seem to care about humans, I never thought that there would be a day when they would not let each other down for their "minions".
It's just... so cute.
Since being able to understand cat language, Lin Lan has really discovered the hidden truth that many kittens who seem cold and neurotic are actually too cute.
"Xiao Song, I'll ask you to greet the guests. I'll go back and make cakes." After explaining to Song Xinmin, Lin Lan went back to the water bar and continued to work.
"Okay store manager." Song Xinmin responded immediately. He was holding his mobile phone in his hand, and there were a few photos just taken on the screen.
In the camera, there is a scene where the blue cat and Jinjira confront each other in the transparent compartment. The two cats are bowing their waists and their whole body hair explodes. It is relatively tense.
Song Xinmin stared at the screen for a while, and finally couldn't help turning back to the water bar: "Store manager, can I bring the camera into the store and take pictures of the cats?"
Lin Lan, who was putting the egg mixture under the food processor, was stunned when she heard the request, and then blurted out: "Of course! If you take a good-looking cat photo, remember to send it to me and let me post it on the store wall. Photo area!" She laughed at the end.
She almost forgot about this long-term photographer's main business, and everyone took the initiative to ask for it. Why didn't she agree
Comrade Xiao Song, who got the approval, was satisfied and went on to work, but his eyes were already staring at the cats in the store, simulating and looking for the best shooting angle from time to time.
In the corner that neither of them noticed, the orange cat and the cow cat, who were also locked in the cage but placed in the lobby because they wanted to learn to be cute, had a panoramic view of what had just happened.
The cow cat didn't respond very well, and even yawned, complaining to the orange cat in the next cage that there was a cat that kept making noise early in the morning and it didn't sleep well.
The orange cat gentleman is shaking his pointed ears without any feedback. Although he is lying there like a peasant, his eyes are wide open, very energetic and very clever to observe those people and cats, like Like what information is being collected.
Lin Lan originally thought that the episode in the morning was the highlight of the day, but she did not expect to receive another foster care request in the afternoon.
"Sister Lan Lan, I'm on vacation!" When Yu Lingling, a junior high school student who lived on the second floor, ran into the store with a smile, Lin Lan hadn't remembered anything until the little girl said, "We will go back to our hometown in three days to celebrate the New Year. , Xiaokui at home will also ask you this year!"
The author has something to say:
Lin Lan: ... I almost forgot about that parrot.
