Mao Yuchen had already called Grandma Zhan beforehand, and when the four of them arrived, the gray-haired old man was standing at the gate of the yard, looking around, waiting for them.
The old man was very thin and her back was a bit bent, but she was in good spirits, with a ruddy complexion and bright eyes.
Seeing Mao Yuchen, the old man had a smile on his face, Mao Yuchen also laughed at her, ran forward quickly, and held her shoulder, "Grandma Zhan, why did you come out? It's not that I don't know the way, you don't have to come here specially." Wait for me."
"Aren't you going to bring your friends? Those who come are just guests," Grandma Zhan looked at the two men and a woman behind Mao Yuchen with smiling eyes.
She was stunned for a moment, the appearance of these three people was too eye-catching, the two young men were very handsome, with a tall and straight figure, especially the one in the smoky gray shirt, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and gentle eyes, which made people feel good .
And the girl next to him is really bright-eyed, looking forward to shining brightly, as beautiful as a star.
She asked Mao Yuchen,
"Isn't your friend a celebrity?"
Mao Yuchen was surprised, "Do you also watch the live broadcast online?"
Grandma Zhan: "???"
Mao Yuchen realized that he had misunderstood, and immediately introduced Liu Man's identity, "She is my current boss, her name is Liu Man, and she is also a female network anchor."
Grandma Zhan was incredible, "She looks about your age? Is it your boss? Don't you work in a supermarket?"
Mao Yuchen explained his current situation to her again, and told her that Liu Man sold cat food, Ye Ziliang was a director, and Yu Zhan was a veterinarian. They came to her to make a documentary.
Grandma Zhan was very surprised by the occupations of these three people. She thought that Mao Yuchen brought new friends to do volunteer work.
"Hi grandma, let me tell you the details," Liu Man said to grandma Zhan politely, "We are the filming team of the online documentary "Cute Pet Hospital", and we are preparing the latest episode of the series, the theme is' Rescue stray animals', Yuchen told me that you have rescued stray pets for many years and have a lot of experience in this area, so we want to cooperate with you."
Grandma Zhan said, "I'm old, I don't know how to play with a mobile phone, I don't know about online documentaries, I don't understand your young people's stuff, and I don't know what propaganda is."
Grandma Zhan thought that Liu Man and the others were here to help her with publicity. In the past, she had accepted several interviews with traditional media, claiming to "help her publicize", that is, newspaper news that Mao Yuchen had read. After all, such a personal obligation like her The act of adopting stray animals, and adopting so many animals, is considered a rare act of charity, and it is also an anecdote.
But after these reporters interviewed her and completed their work performance, there was nothing more to say. Except for a few more kind-hearted volunteers like Mao Yuchen who came to help occasionally, her life did not change in any way.
The most irritating thing is that some boring people watched the news, ran over to watch, laughed at her, called her crazy, couldn't figure it out, ate, lived and slept with animals, was dirty to death, and called her such a Love, spend this money, why not help children in impoverished mountainous areas.
Only then did Grandma Zhan realize that she was just a material for the media, and they didn't take her seriously at all. She began to reject interviews from the news media and refused to answer calls from reporters. Her kindness was not rewarded, and she gradually ignored her.
Seeing Grandma Zhan's wary eyes, Liu Man quickly explained, "We are all pet lovers. I have raised two cats myself. One of them was a stray cat. It was in critical condition when it was picked up. My boyfriend cured it," Liu Man pointed to Yu Zhan and said to her, "He has a dog, which is an abandoned dog."
She pointed to Ye Ziliang and said, "He is the creator of this subject. He has a cat and a dog, and he has a deep affection for pets."
Hearing this, Grandma Zhan's expression softened.
"We shoot documentaries, not news. You are paid for our filming. I will give you 200 bags of cat food. If there are no animals that are sick, we can help you treat them for free."
Grandma Zhan's heart moved. These real things are much more useful than the reporter's fluffy "propaganda"! She looked at the handsome young man behind Liu Man, and she still remembered Mao Yuchen's introduction, "Is your boyfriend really a veterinarian?"
"Yes, he is not only a veterinarian, but also the owner of a pet hospital, and his second store is about to open."
Grandma Zhan believed that these three people really came to do good deeds. She wondered, "Why don't you go to the Capital Stray Pet Protection Association? They are so big and seem more formal than me."
"To be honest, we have already contacted their person in charge, and everything has been settled. They suddenly changed their minds and made my friends work for nothing."
"Is the person in charge named Zhang?"
Grandma Zhan suddenly asked this question, but Liu Man didn't know.
Ye Ziliang quickly said, "Yes, the surname is Zhang."
Grandma Zhan smiled coldly, and said inexplicably, "It's not the first time he's done something like this."
Liu Man and the others looked at each other in blank dismay.
"Okay, let me show you my place first, it's far inferior to the association's base, if you don't like the mess and can't get on the stage, you can go back on your word."
Before Liu Man and the others came, Grandma Zhan had just prepared the animals' food for today, so she wore a faux-leather apron in dark brown color over her clothes.
Walking into the yard, everyone could smell an animal smell, which was unpleasant but not strong. The three of them, Liu Man, were all familiar with this smell.
Grandma Zhan observed their usual expressions and was sure that Liu Man hadn't lied just now. People who don't keep pets will frown and feel disgusted when they smell this smell.
She went to the kitchen at the back of the bungalow first, and came out with a big bucket in both hands, which looked very heavy.
Seeing this, Yu Zhan immediately stepped forward, "Give it to me, and I'll get it."
"There is oil in this bucket, it will stain your clothes," said Grandma Zhan, seeing that Yu Zhan was well dressed and behaved as if he came from a better-off family.
So she was just now questioning his career as a veterinarian.
"It's okay, it's just a piece of clothing."
While talking, Yu Zhan had already taken the big bucket from Grandma Zhan. He was surprised that the bucket was not ordinary heavy. He insisted on exercising during this time, and thought his arms were very strong, but it was still a bit difficult to hold. Thinking of the old man carrying such a bucket every day, he couldn't help admiring and admiring her.
"Thank you, boy," Grandma James said.
Yu Zhan asked her, "Do you usually live here alone?"
"Yeah, I did everything myself."
