After the Lantern Festival, whether it is the attached primary school or the students of Chuhua University, classes will start one after another.
School starts, some people are happy, some people feel the opposite.
In Zheng Tan's view, college students generally return to school with a lot more smiles than the children in the primary school.
The children in grades one and two are still trying to find excuses to play truant. Some children at the entrance of the small entrance are still red, and they sniff every now and then.
In contrast, the young people who ran by riding bicycles like a gust of wind were in a much better mood, eager to find the girls whom they had not seen for a long time and missed.
Children in the sixth grade have a special psychology. They spend their last elementary school years with mixed feelings of "I'm finally growing up" and "I still have so many homework and exams."
Zheng Tan wondered if every 6th grade kid had such a contradictory mentality, at least Jiao Yuan was like that, the kid always had inexplicable excitement and anxiety. Like Dad Jiao said, this is about to enter puberty.
Adolescent kids...
In this way, Jiao Yuan can no longer be regarded as a little boy when he goes to junior high school, and belongs to the ranks of "boys". Well, it is estimated that some small X books can be found in Jiao Yuan's room in the future.
Zheng Tan was lying on the sofa, the tip of his tail swaying slowly, watching Jiao Yuan and Xiaoyouzi go out, Jiao's mother sent them out, and went directly to buy vegetables after sending the child.
Zheng Tan didn't go out much during the day these days. The school was full of people and it was very lively. After the freshmen returned to school, the quiet campus for the winter vacation became noisy again.
Zheng Tan didn't want to hang out at such a time, it was inconvenient. Therefore, Zheng Tan changed his schedule. During the first week of school, he slept at home during the day, and went out to squat after dinner at night.
In the past few nights, Zheng Tan has a little understanding of the work and rest time of the tattooed man, but it is not enough. He has to guarantee a success, so he has to follow him a few more times. Besides, the materials at hand are still a little lacking, and some things have not been found.
Zheng Tan squatted on the sofa for a while. When he woke up, he found that it was only 9:30 and Jiao's mother hadn't come back yet, so she probably went to chat with someone again.
Stretching, Zheng Tan looked out the window. The sun is shining, but the temperature is still not high, and the people who come and go are still wearing thick down jackets.
Being bored and unable to sleep, Zheng Tan simply decided to go out for a walk.
Over the years, Ah Huang has become more lazy and fatter. Zheng Tan often sees Ah Huang sleeping on his balcony, with his head protruding a little from the crack of the balcony railing, his tail thrown directly outside, and occasionally still Shaking twice, for fear that others would not know where it was sleeping. Fortunately, the gap between the railings is not too big, so Ah Huang will not fall out of the gap.
As for the sheriff, the people of his family keep him at home, because there are many cat dealers who are trapping cats during the Chinese New Year. After some cats around him disappeared, the sheriff who often ran out was ordered not to leave the house, nor to call the sky.
Without them, Zheng Tan would be more free and casual by himself.
After climbing the tree for a while, Zheng Tan walked out of the woods with few people. At this time, there were not many people walking on the campus road. Perhaps because of the popularity of the campus, the two rows of bare plane trees beside the driveway did not seem so desolate.
Zheng Tan walked aimlessly along those sunny places. There is no wind, the sun shines on the fur on the body warm, fluffy, very comfortable.
Zheng Tan was squinting and enjoying the warm sunshine when he suddenly heard someone call his name.
Looking at the sound, Zheng Tan saw on the other side of the flower bed, a man in a long loose fur coat was standing there, waving at him.
Xiao Zhuo
Zheng Tan turned around and walked towards Xiao Zhuo.
Compared to the last time Zheng Tan saw her, Xiao Zhuo's belly was clearly protruding now, and even wearing loose winter clothes couldn't block the protruding arc.
Xiao Zhuo held a bag in his hand, and inside the bag was a book that looked like he had just bought it. He probably just came back from the bookstore at the gate of the school.
"What are you doing here?" Xiao Zhuo looked at Zheng and sighed. Bending down, he reached out and tapped Zheng Tan's forehead lightly.
He knew that there was a cat in front of him and couldn't speak, but Xiao Zhuo habitually asked.
People who have been with animals for a long time will also do the same when they see other animals, talking directly instead of imitating their names.
Zheng Tan is a little afraid to approach Xiao Zhuo, look at this stomach, what if something happens? Look how hard she is bending over. Moreover, don't they all say that pregnant women can't avoid cats because of the problem of Toxoplasma gondii
Glancing around, Zheng Tan realized that he had unknowingly approached the area of the West Family District. So, Xiao Zhuo lived in the family compound in the West District all this time
"Go, go to my place to play?" Xiao Zhuo took two steps, stopped and stood there, turned to look at Zheng Tan, looking forward to it.
Zheng Tan stood there and thought for a while. He had been sick for a while. As for the Toxoplasma gondii problem... I shouldn't have it, right? I seem to be very healthy, and I take baths often. I sleep with Xiaoyouzi in the same bed every day. Seeing that Xiaoyouzi is fine, there should be nothing that can spread to Xiaozhuo.
After hesitating for a while, Zheng Tan looked at Xiao Zhuo who was full of anticipation and took a step.
Seeing Zheng Tan following, Xiao Zhuo immediately showed a smile, and while walking in front, he told Zheng Tan something about the past few months.
Xiao Zhuo usually doesn't talk to people very much, and there are actually only a few who can talk, but Xiao Zhuo doesn't directly say what he thinks to them. When dealing with people, there is always some consideration, but when dealing with cats, it is different.
It is easier for people to speak to some animals or some spiritual objects, which is also a way of catharsis. Some people keep pets for this reason.
Later, because of the growing belly, Xiaozhuo was not very convenient to move and needed to rest. "Buddha" was worried that Xiaozhuo ran around every day. Just at that time, the new building in the western compound began to be allocated, and "Buddha" would belong to him. The one that belonged to Xiaozhuo.
People like "Buddha" have already earned both fame and fortune. They don't care about such a house at all. In normal times, "Buddha" will not go to grab other teachers, but, for Xiao Zhuo, "Buddha" Really started.
"Buddha" word, everyone else has to stand aside.
At this time, there were not many people walking outdoors in the western district. During working hours, only a few people could be seen in the compound.
The houses on the west side of the compound are very new, and some buildings have a similar layout to the buildings on the east side, but the exterior looks much more gorgeous and fashionable. The greening is okay, but it is definitely not as good as the one in the east courtyard. Although various constructions are very bright, it always makes Zheng Tan feel uncomfortable.
Perhaps he was used to the old houses in the East District compound. Facing these splendid new buildings, Zheng Tan always felt that something was missing.
Zheng Tan remembered the time when he first came to this place. Many family buildings in the east courtyard were covered with creepers, the surrounding trees were lush, and there were people setting up grape trellis in the corner of the courtyard. In the evening, some elderly people They sat there, shaking their brown-spotted bamboo shoot fans and chatting.
Some people say that old is a kind of feeling, and it is true. The years have eroded for decades, and the accumulation of feelings that have been precipitated by generations. This may be the reason why those old professors are still willing to live in the old house that is not big.
After living there for a period of time in the east courtyard, Zheng Tan really felt the kind of quietness in simplicity.
Xiaozhuo didn't live in the houses Zheng Tan saw after entering the gate of the community, and he had to go inside a bit.
The west family compound is much larger than the east compound, so in addition to the main entrance, there are several side doors.
The front part of the main gate of the hospital is a six-story building, and further inside, there are several newly built elevator rooms. It is very close to one of the side doors. Xiaozhuo sometimes enters and exits through this side door. It is convenient to go outside the school. . Today, she just bought a book on a whim and was about to go for a walk in the campus, but she met Zheng Tan unexpectedly.
It's not easy to get places in these elevator rooms.
Zheng Tan followed Xiao Zhuo into the elevator. There was no one else in the elevator. If anyone else was there, he would definitely wonder why there was a cat in the elevator. Do cats still take elevators
Xiao Zhuo pressed the sixth floor, which belongs to the middle section of the building.
"This is where I live now."
After getting out of the elevator, Xiao Zhuo pointed to the house with the house number "606". It's also attached to the Spring Festival couplets.
When Xiao Zhuo opened the door, Zheng Tan walked in and found that there were other people's breath inside. So I stopped at the door and sniffed.
Seeing Zheng Tan's reaction, Xiao Zhuo said with a smile, "Mr. Ye please help me and ask someone to take care of me, but she's not here today, she has something to do."
"Buddha" is really considerate. But also, with such a big belly, no one is worried. Zheng Tan thought.
Zheng Tan glanced at the furnishings in the room. About 100 square meters, the lighting is very good, the decoration is full of modernity, and the color is very warm.
There are several fruit baskets on the table with various fruits, and another basket with other food.
Zheng Tan jumped onto the table and looked beside the basket. There were still some preserved fruits and sour plums in it.
"It's all from Teacher Ye's family. I can't even finish it, can you eat it?" Xiao Zhuo grabbed a handful of peeled walnuts and peanuts from a bag. After taking it out, she hesitated again, she didn't know if the cat could eat these.
Regardless of whether the other cats can or not, Zheng Tan ate it anyway.
"Let's stay for lunch at noon." Xiao Zhuo touched Zheng Tan's head and said.
Zheng Tan scratched his ears.
Lonely pregnant woman...
Forget it, just reluctantly stay with you for a while.
Zheng Tan looked at the peeled nuts in the bag, ate some snacks and took a nap, it was probably the afternoon. Actually it's not hard.
Xiao Zhuo didn't know if the cat in front of him understood his words, so he called Dad Jiao at the end of get out of class and explained the matter, which also saved Jiao's family from waiting at home.
Xiaozhuo knows that the cat in front of him is very important to his family. During the time when Jiao's mother was hospitalized, Xiaozhuo also heard some things about this black cat when he went to visit. The Jiao family was really very fond of this cat. value. Moreover, Xiao Zhuo didn't want to treat the black cat like the other cats in the compound.
This black cat is different.
At noon, the nanny hired by the "Buddha" came back to cook.
When the nanny saw Zheng Tan, her expression was terrified. She thinks it's better for pregnant women not to get too close to cats. Cats like to run around, play with insects and eat mice. They mess with a lot of things. Who knows what kind of disease they carry!
The sitter said a few words about the germs or parasites that the cat may carry and the effect of these germs and parasites on the fetus. But Xiao Zhuo just said "um" twice to indicate that he heard it, and then continued to let Zheng Tan lie next to him, quite close to each other.
Seeing that the reminder was useless, the nanny called "Buddha" in the kitchen to report the situation while cooking.
"There is a cat?!" The voice of the Buddha over there rose a lot, and it sounded disapproving.
"Yes, yes," the nanny continued, sensing the dissatisfaction of "Buddha", "It's still only black!"
At the nanny's house, some people think that black cats are not very lucky, so she has never had a good impression of this pure black cat.
"Black?" The voice of "Buddha" dropped again, and it seemed much calmer.
"right."
"Black charcoal?"
"Uh... It seems that Xiao Zhuo called it that."
"Then leave it alone."
"what?"
"This black cat is different." When "Buddha" knew that Xiao Zhuo was more familiar with this cat, he went to investigate the cat's diet and other living conditions, as well as his habits and temperament. The results of the investigation made "Buddha" I'm quite satisfied, otherwise I wouldn't have a different attitude towards a mere little associate professor.
"Oh." After hanging up the phone, the nanny was still full of doubts. What's different about this black cat
The nanny stretched out her head and looked at the squinting black cat squatting on the moon chair in the bedroom. She shook her head. She didn't see anything special. It was similar to the black cat she had seen before, and it didn't have an extra ear or a missing one. eyes.
In the end, the nanny attributed the attitudes of "Buddha" and Xiao Zhuo to "the rationality of scientific researchers".
Zheng Tan squatted on a softly padded moon chair in Xiao Zhuo's room and put his hands up.
This posture was learned by Zheng Tan from Big Fatty and the others. The first time he saw Big Fatty posing like this, Zheng Tan still wondered, what kind of trouble is this kind of hatching egg-like posture? Then, Zheng Tan shoved a round rock the size of a quail egg between Big Fatty's claws.
Well, that's more like hatching eggs.
Zheng Tan still remembered Big Fatty's helpless look at that time, and then Big Fatty moved the soles of his feet and pushed the stone out.
Later, when Zheng Tan saw Ah Huang squatting in such a posture, he did the same thing, but Ah Huang just squinted and meowed, and then stopped moving. So every time Zheng Tan sees Ah Huang squatting like this, he has the idea of stuffing stones inside. Maybe he will just put an egg and see
Later, Zheng Tan found that many cats like this. It seems that cats are more at ease when they are in this posture, and they are not ready to move their paws for the time being.
So, Zheng Tan also learned to squat like this, and put his hands up. After getting used to it, Zheng Tan felt that it was okay.
The smell of food came from the kitchen. Xiao Zhuo, who was lying on the reclining chair, took the book away, rubbed his eyes, and looked at the black cat squatting on the moon chair next to him, smiling silently. Maybe, in the future, you can also have a cat at home. It doesn't need to be too expensive, just a local cat. You don't have to be too diligent, it doesn't matter if you can be lazy, it doesn't matter if you like to steal snacks...
At the same time, in the small restaurant not far from the alley in the old building area, the waiter who came to bring the wine looked at the beer box that had lost half of the bottles, and sighed, he felt that the person who stole the drink was really overwhelmed. It's too much, is it really going to steal the whole box
