"Yuanyuan." Lin Lan walked to the long-haired cat who was sitting with her back to them, called its name softly, and took out a cat strip from her pocket and tore it open, "Look here, Yuanyuan, I'll treat you to a snack. "
The cat, who had been ignoring people because of the pain, turned his head all of a sudden, and the cat's eyes widened.
"Meow..." (Why can I understand you?)
Of course, Lin Lan couldn't answer this question in front of a human, she just smiled and shook the cat: "I was invited by your family to help you solve the problem, you can tell me if you have any troubles, I will think A way to help you solve it."
It didn't take long for Lin Lan to come over, and she found a problem in the cat, and the client's family's confidence in her was suddenly improved by more than half.
Especially after she walked to the cat, smiled and greeted the cat while crouching down and approached, Yuanyuan, who was wary of strangers, not only did not run away, but also took the initiative to stretch out her head to sniff her hand, and then let her touch her head without biting at all People, and meowing to her coquettishly, like a complaint, this family has no objection to what Lin Lan said.
Hmm... The Yuan family did not guess wrong, their cat was indeed constantly complaining.
(Not bad here at all! There are nasty strangers everywhere!)
(I've told Lei Lei and my mother many times that my back hurts, but they always touch my wounds!)
(And some guys out there are always provoking me! This is my turf!)
(I want to protect this home, never let them invade successfully!)
"Then, Miss Lin, about Yuanyuan suddenly likes to urinate and grab furniture in the villa..." After hearing that the returning wife said that she had made an appointment to see the veterinarian in the afternoon, the male owner timely raised the remaining troubles.
At this time, Lin Lan, who had just finished negotiating with Yuanyuan, was reaching out to the cat with both hands. The cat, who always bites people, jumped into her arms on her own initiative, and then adjusted herself to a comfortable position. Lin Lan's arm.
The adults were okay at this time, but they were surprised. The little girl Leilei had already opened her mouth and said, "Sister Lin, Yuanyuan took the initiative to let you hug me! I haven't hugged Yuanyuan for a long time!" Finally, the little girl pouted like jealousy.
"Because it's physically injured, when the veterinarian heals it, Yuanyuan will definitely let you hold it." Smiling to reassure the little friend, Lin Lan hugged the cat and turned to look at the owner's house, "You can take me here. Do you go up and down your house?"
"Of course!" The hostess and the hostess nodded again and again, asking others to solve the problem, naturally they had to look all over the scene.
This villa has five floors and a family elevator. Lin Lan decided to take the elevator lazy after asking the kitten if she didn't urinate on the stairs.
Starting from the third floor, each floor of the villa is equipped with a viewing balcony, where people can easily see the verdant mountain scenery of Xicheng and the landscape of the wetland park. Excellent place to live.
"Mr. Yuan, Mrs. Yuan, animals like to use excrement and claw marks to mark their territories, you should know that?" During this period, Lin Lan watched and talked to the client's family, "The same is true for cats. You also said Guo Yuanyuan was not like this when he first moved in, and then suddenly became manic, in fact, because he divided the villa into his own territory and was invaded or provoked by other animals."
When he said this, the host was all stunned.
"Ms. Lin means... Our house, other animals have come in? Then Yuanyuan found it?" The host then said.
The hostess, who is often at home, lowered her head and meditated: "Speaking of which... I did see birds flying over from the mountain on the top floor several times, and once I saw Yuanyuan catch them on the top floor."
"I've seen it too!" Little Leilei raised her hand high, "I've also seen weasels, foxes, and cats in the garden under my house! I wanted to catch them, but they ran away quickly. ." The little girl was still a little gloomy when she said this.
Lin Lan and the others looked at her unexpectedly, but they couldn't tell that she was still a little girl, and she was quite sturdy at a young age.
But the hostess changed her face: "Where did you see it from the garden?" Is the fence at home useless
The little girl didn't know what her mother was thinking, but she pointed to the northwest corner of the downstairs as a matter of course, and tilted her head innocently: "It's over there, the place where my mother planted camellias! When I chased it, I found the wall. There's a little hole that they can get through with ease, but I can't get through..."
If you could have drilled that hole, it would have been discovered long ago.
This time, the case was basically solved, and the docile domestic cat suddenly became frantic because the villa was invaded by the surrounding wild animals.
In fact, it is not unexpected at all when you think about it for a while. This villa area is built on a mountain, and next to it is a wetland park with a natural oxygen bar. It is strange that there are no wild animals. Dangerous animal community properties must have been stopped long ago, but they can't stand those small animals that are not dangerous and roam around the community.
It is definitely a high probability that these foreign mobile wild animals will conflict with domestic cats with fixed sites.
"Maybe the cat will fall and get injured because it is entangled with those animals." Yuan Jiaqing muttered.
Cheng Fengyang, who had never spoken next to him, also nodded at the right time, staring at the cat in Lin Lan's arms thoughtfully: "I heard from your family before that this cat has been raised for six years, and according to its age, it is a middle-aged and elderly cat. , the physical quality has declined, and the injury is definitely not as easy to care as before." He suddenly remembered the stars at home, fortunately, his dog is still in his prime, and the bald hair will be healed soon with a little hair growth agent.
When Cheng Fengyang diverged his thoughts over there, the hostess was already anxious.
"You child, why didn't you tell me when you found out!" She complained about her playful daughter, and wanted to go downstairs to check the situation, but was stopped by her husband.
"Ms. Lin, the smell on the top floor is the heaviest. Does it mean that wild animals often come here?" The host pulled his wife and asked Lin Lan.
Lin Lan didn't answer, but looked down at the cat in her arms.
Yuanyuan immediately jumped off Lin Lan's arms and ran towards a place.
"Follow." She said, and chased after the cat, and the group of people naturally chased after him.
Later, under the guidance of the cat, everyone passed a small window in the attic and saw that a bird's nest had been built on the chimney used as a decoration in the corner of the roof.
The bird's nest has long been empty, and it is in a half-damaged state. It has obviously been abandoned by the nesters for a long time, but all kinds of bird droppings on the tiles around the bird's nest are very fresh, and some even use small windows for lighting. Got a dip or two in shit.
"Is this a cat and a bird feuding?" Cheng Fengyang groaned while covering his mouth and nose.
"It may be that the bird is provoking the cat." Yuan Jiaqing said, covering his nose with his hands, "No way, the smell of urine is too strong, it's a good thing that no one has ever come up to this attic, otherwise it would have been smoked to death. "
"I didn't even know that this part of the house stinks like this!" The hostess was the most broken one. She was reluctant to get angry with her cat, but her eyes were staring at the bird shit on the roof.
"You should pay close attention to the places with the most serious urine odor and claw marks, which means that it is also the place where the cat is most protected." Lin Lan brought the cat back, also half-covering her nose and holding her throat, "I've read it all upstairs, Let's go to the garden and have a look."
The group of people all hurriedly left with their noses pinched, and they didn't want to stay there for a second.
When they went to the ground garden, the fresh air in the open air made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, but Mrs. Yuan had already grabbed her daughter and asked her to lead her to find the hole in the wall.
Behind the dense camellias, they saw a hole the size of a child's head, surrounded by lawn vegetation. If the child hadn't pointed it out, they wouldn't have found it at first glance.
On the way to find the hole in the wall, the cat Yuanyuan also led them to find the feces of some other animals in the garden from time to time.
In a sense, this villa with high security for people is full of loopholes in the eyes of animals.
"I'm sorry, Yuanyuan, I'm the one who blamed you." The hostess carefully took the cat, her face was really tired, "I thought you became bad-tempered for no reason, but I didn't expect it to be like this."
Think about it from another perspective, it would be strange if people were to fight wits and courage with some guys who always have bad intentions towards their own family every day, and not have a bad temper.
At this point, Lin Lan's task is more than half completed.
"Yuanyuan lacks the most basic sense of security in this house, which requires the efforts of both Mr. Yuan and Mrs. Yuan. Before the wild animals stop coming to the villa, I suggest that the two of you put cats in the corners where the smell is the strongest. Sand basin, the situation can be improved to some extent." Lin Lan said to the two of them, "As for how to prevent these small wild animals from breaking in, I don't know much about this kind of thing, and I will rely on two other experts to solve it. And most importantly, give Yuanyuan treatment quickly, he has been suffering from pain for a while, which is very uncomfortable."
"We will." The hostess nodded immediately with a grateful expression, "Thank you, Miss Lin, you really helped us a lot!"
"You're welcome, this is also because the two of you are willing to trust me."
Lin Lan replied with a smile, looking down at the cat in her arms, because the hostess hugged the cat in the correct posture, Yuanyuan didn't struggle any more, and was lying in the owner's arms obediently, her tail even fluttering happily. Lin Lan unconsciously softened her eyes, and couldn't help but say again.
"Mr. Yuan and Mrs. Yuan, the lifespan of a cat is usually only ten years. If you take good care of it, you can live to be in your twenties or even close to thirty. Yuanyuan is not young anymore, but it still treats the two as parents. It loves, and it is also giving back to you in its own way. It is really a rare fate for you to meet each other and live together."
The Yuan family also looked down at the cat. Although the process was unacceptable, it was indeed protecting the family, but as human beings, they never understood it.
"Yes." The host reached out and rubbed the kitten's head. "It has long been part of the family and another child of ours."
Next, there was a discussion on how to build a safe villa. Lin Lan didn't understand this at all, but Cheng Fengyang, a home improvement designer, did.
So Lin Lan became a pure listener, just like Cheng Fengyang who kept his mouth shut before, listening to him and the owner of the house discussing how to renovate the wall, and what kind of electronic repeller to install in the floor and garden. , I don't know why, but I also feel like I have gained knowledge.
Because they couldn't shirk, the two of them had a hearty lunch at the host's kindness, and then sat down for a while before leaving.
Before leaving, the hostess forcibly gave Lin Lan a thick envelope. While thanking her repeatedly, she also said that she would send another big red envelope when the situation improved completely.
Lin Lan didn't get back to Cheng Fengyang's car until she opened the envelope and glanced in curiously.
"Wow—" She had just called out that, then quickly closed her mouth and packed the envelope into her bag.
"How, is this business good?" Cheng Fengyang, who was driving next to him, couldn't help laughing.
"Cough, thank you, Fengyang." Lin Lan was also a little embarrassed at the moment.
Cheng Fengyang glanced at her sideways, and when she rolled her eyes, she knew she was thinking about how to repay others' favor, and quickly said: "No thanks, we are mutually beneficial today. Received a new order again. Everyone wins!"
He really didn't want Lin Lan to tell him everything clearly, the accounts were too clear, how could he have a chance to mix up and make the relationship closer
After hearing what he said, Lin Lan twitched the corners of her mouth and stopped talking, but her face was a little complicated.
She didn't speak anymore, Cheng Fengyang didn't know what to say, and the car suddenly became quiet.
The atmosphere wasn't awkward, but it wasn't easy either, so I drove all the way home with a little tension.
According to the old rules, Cheng Fengyang first parked the car on the side of the small building and waited for Lin Lan to get off the car before turning the car to the gate of his own community on the opposite side.
Lin Lan watched the car leave, and when she turned around and walked back, she saw her mother standing at the entrance of the grocery store.
Wang Xiuzhi stretched out her hand to summon her daughter, and the other party came immediately.
"What's wrong, Mom?" Lin Lan didn't care when her mother called out to her. As she spoke, she walked into the canteen, took a bottle of drink from the shelf very skillfully, turned her head and said to Wang Xiuzhi. "Mom, let me tell you, I made a lot of money this time out to get extra cash. This is the number for one trip!" She said and gestured a number with her hand.
Wang Xiuzhi looked at her daughter with a beaming face, and later said that the customer would also give her a red envelope to thank her, and she also turned over the envelope in the bag to show her, but the expression on her face was always light.
The mother's reaction made Lin Lan a little overwhelmed: "What's wrong? Why are you not happy that I made money?"
"It's not that I'm unhappy. How can I be unhappy that you can make a lot of money." Wang Xiuzhi glanced at the thick envelope and then at the girl who was still confused, and couldn't help sighing, "This job is introduced by Xiaocheng. right?"
"yes."
"The table in the teahouse was also a lottery from Xiao Cheng, right?"
"Yeah..." Lin Lan felt bad when she heard it, "But I invited people to dinner."
"Yes, you have invited people to dinner and thank you." Wang Xiuzhi sat back on the stool behind the counter and looked up at her daughter, "Na Lanlan, what do you think of Xiao Cheng? You don't understand why they do it so obviously. Bar?"
What do you think? Lin Lan was stunned for a moment, but facing her mother, she still didn't hide it.
"Just... He's interested in me, but I'm not at the stage of thinking about him yet. Now he's a good friend, and he's a nice guy, so I don't hate him."
Don't hate it, it's a play!
Mother Lin, who is also a woman, is of course aware of the woman's thoughts, especially when her daughter said the other party's intentional words, Wang Xiuzhi felt that she couldn't let her daughter go on like this.
"Lanlan, you're 26 this year. Although our family is here, you certainly don't have to worry about getting married, but the age is here." Wang Xiuzhi looked at her daughter, "Xiaocheng is a good person, my father and I are in his family. I have inquired about it, and it is a match for our family. I know that you don’t say it, but you are still brooding about last year’s affairs and refuse to talk about it again. But good men are scarce resources at all times, and you are hesitating now , I missed it later, and regretting it is useless."
Lin Lan almost spit out a sip of soda: "Mom, aren't you? Are you also going to join the marriage urging army?" At the end of last year, she boasted about Haikou in front of a tenant. Will she be slapped in the face this year
"It's not to urge marriage." Wang Xiuzhi gave her daughter a sullen look, "I know someone like you who is over 30 years old wants it, but it's hard to find a man who knows how to be hot and cold. You are beautiful since you were a child, and you have always been attacked. Boys are courteous, but because you have always been very thoughtful, my dad and I can rest assured of you. There are actually quite a few boys who have seen us in front of us over the years, but there are not many who talk to you like Xiao Cheng. Maybe you don't feel it yourself, but your dad and I can see that you have never taken the initiative to invite the same boy out to dinner in a row before, and every time you come into contact with others, you have a smile on your face."
Lin Lan was stunned for a moment, and unconsciously squeezed the beverage bottle in her hand.
Wang Xiuzhi saw her daughter's bewildered look and knew that she didn't realize anything. She couldn't help but sighed again. She stretched out her hand to wrap one of her daughter's hands in her palm and patted it lightly.
"Aren't you always shrewd? Go to work, open a store, train kittens, you can do everything well. Why are you so careless about your own business?" Worried, "Mom just hopes that you don't hinder the present because of the bad things of the past."
