33.

"No, we don't want to sell Betty."

Johnny said,

"She has been working hard for us. If she is sold to someone else because she is old and can't help us, then she can't help others. …"

-

Facts have proved that even after so many years, the memory of Yan Tang playing wildly in this area when he was young and ignorant is still helpful.

He found a place to park with ease.

In this old community, Yan Tang followed the address given by Aunt Li, but it was a bit difficult.

The units and buildings above are somewhat difficult for a person who hasn't been back for many years.

Of course, fortunately, Mr. Cat was leading the way.

As soon as Yan Tang parked the car, Mr. Mao got out of the car quickly.

It is obviously very familiar with this place, its tail is raised high, like a small antenna.

It walked in front of Ai Bao and Yan Tang, and meowed a few times at the biped beast behind it.

No matter how mature the cat is, it will be very excited when it is time to go home.

"Ouch! Dasheng is back!" Yan Tang and Ai Bao had just arrived near the downstairs when Aunt Li, wearing a mask, greeted her.

She obviously sat under the big banyan tree at the bottom of the building early, and jumped up when she saw her cat.

"Meow!" said Mr. Cat.

He is old now and can't do many of the young kitten's pounces and coquettish actions.

It could only meow and circle around Aunt Li's feet.

Mr. Cat's tail is straight, and he is in a very good mood now.

Aunt Li hugged it into her arms, weighed it, her face full of distress, "Ah, we have lost weight in Dasheng, and this little belly has flattened!"

She said, and touched Mr. Cat's white belly.

Mr. Mao paws the hands of the landlord's auntie, and rubs against her.

Auntie coughed a few times, hugged and touched Mr. Mao, and then remembered Yan Tang and Ai Bao.

"Hey, look at me! Really!" Aunt Li stomped her feet, and she quickly invited Yan Tang and Ai Bao into her home, "Come, come, this Mr. Yan, and...?"

She looked at Ai Bao who only showed half of his face behind Yan Tang, and then looked at Yan Tang inquiringly, not sure what to call Ai Bao.

Yan Tang touched Ai Bao's head, "This is Ai Bao." He introduced.

"Ai Bao, come out and say hello to Auntie." He said, gently pushing Ai Bao out.

Ai Bao has become much more courageous.

He looked at Aunt Li who was wearing a mask, and said softly, "Hello, Auntie."

Aunt Li, like her cats, is both elderly, and they all like innocent children like Ai Bao.

"Hey, okay," she laughed. Although she was wearing a mask and couldn't see her mouth, just looking at her smiling eyes made one feel that she must be extremely happy.

"Hurry up, hurry up, come in!" She hugged Dasheng, and invited Yan Tang and Ai Bao into her home, "I heard that you guys were coming, so I spent a whole night cleaning it, and I weighed it at the door. Big bag of sesame candy, let me tell you, the sesame candy at our door is really delicious, piece by piece, crisp and not sticky to the teeth! After a while, Mr. Yan, you take a bag and bring it back to Aibao to order Son!"

Aunt Li said with her mouth, but her hands were not vague.

She held the cat in one hand, and touched the key to open the door with the other.

With a click, the security door of your home is opened.

Aunt Li's house lives on the first floor, and you can see her as soon as you turn a small corner when you come in.

"Excuse me, we visited in a hurry and didn't bring anything." Yan Tang stood at the door and said politely.

"Why do you want to take something?" Aunt Li pretended to be angry, and raised her eyebrows, "Mr. Yan sent our Dasheng back, it really helped me a lot, it's a great gift! I thank you before it's too late, How could it be possible for you to return me some gift? If you took it, it would be an embarrassment to me, and I would never want it!"

"You don't need to take off your shoes. It's not that particular. I mopped the floor last night. Mr. Yan, you can just step on it." Aunt Li hurriedly stopped Yan Tang who asked Aibao to change shoes, "It's winter, so many shoes are changed. It’s cold! Go sit on the sofa, I’ve spread a blanket, it’s sure to be warm. I’ll get you something to eat now.”

After she finished speaking, she took her cat and walked to the kitchen.

Aunt Li has been holding Dasheng since she saw it.

Mr. Mao was also obedient, lying obediently in Aunt Li's arms, rubbing the top of his black head against Aunt Li's chin from time to time.

Aunt Li was itchy, so she patted Mr. Cat's butt.

Yan Tang looked at the tiles on the ground, the tile surface was so clean that it could reflect light, it was really not like what Aunt Li said was dragged yesterday.

But the master's family has already shown such enthusiasm, and Yan Tang can't refuse, lest he lose face to the master's family.

That's not beautiful.

"Baby, come in," Yan Tang took Ai Bao and led him in.

Ai Bao let out an oh and walked in.

It was the first time he came to a stranger's house, he was a little cautious and a little unaccustomed.

"Is this the home of Auntie and Maomao?" Ai Bao asked, shaking Yan Tang and holding his hand.

Yan Tang nodded, "Yes, this is Aunt Li's house."

Ai Bao oh again, indicating that he understands.

They sit down on the sofa.

The cushions are indeed as Aunt Li said, warm and soft.

After Ai Bao sat down next to Yan Tang, he felt a little more relaxed.

He took Yan Tang's hand and played with his fingers.

Following Ai Bao's small movements, Yan Tang casually looked around at Aunt Li's house.

Aunt Li's house is not too big, Yan Tang glanced at it, it was probably two rooms and one living room, but it was tidy and clean, the tiles on the floor were polished brightly, the walls were painted with light yellow paint, one side of the window When the sun shines in, it makes people feel warm in their hearts.

Aunt Li probably loves to grow plants. Yan Tang looked around casually, and all the green plants that came into sight were pots and pots.

Yan Tang is a layman when it comes to plants, so he can't recognize these green plants clearly. Looking left and right, he just thinks that there are some tall green plants in front of the TV set with good leaves and luxuriant branches. The big red flowers outside the pot window are blooming brightly, which makes people feel full of vitality.

"It's been a long wait!" Aunt Li came over with a plate of snacks.

She obviously also has the habit of the older generation, and she always puts sesame candies, melon seeds, peanuts and other foods in the discs that are divided into boxes one by one.

"Try this sesame candy quickly, it's delicious!" She sat down on the sofa beside her and put Mr. Cat in her arms on her lap.

Yan Tang said thank you, and he didn't want to take away Aunt Li's kindness, so he turned his head and asked Ai Bao in a low voice, do you want to give it a try?

Ai Bao leaned on Yan Tang's shoulder.

He looked at the black Mr. Cat, and then at the black sesame candies on the plate.

He thought for a while and said, "Okay!"

So Yan Tang took a piece for him.

This sesame candy is cut neither thick nor thin, and it is quite thick in the hand. It is probably the real thing.

Aunt Li couldn't help laughing when she saw Aibao babbling, chewing sesame candies like a little rabbit diligently gnawing radishes, "Your children are so cute!"

Hearing this, Yan Tang lowered his head to look at Ai Bao who kept talking.

"He has always been very good." He said and rubbed Ai Bao's curly hair.

While chewing sesame candies, Ai Bao looked up in a daze.

He looked at Yan Tang, feeling as if he had been mentioned, but he didn't know what Yan Tang was talking about just now.

Yan Tang didn't explain anything, just took another piece of sesame candy to Ai Bao, "Eat it."

He said.

Ai Bao let out an oh, no longer entangled, took the sesame candy, and continued to eat happily.

Yan Tang raised his head and saw Aunt Li who was holding Mr. Cat, looking at them with a smile.

She still wears her own white mask.

"Eat some after you take off the mask," Yan Tang said.

Aunt Li was stunned for a moment. She touched her mask and quickly waved her hands, "I have a cold, it's not good to be infected..."

She coughed twice as she spoke.

Yan Tang was a little confused, so, "Colds are not so easily contagious, just pay attention to ventilation," he continued to suggest, "It is difficult to breathe smoothly while wearing a mask all the time."

Aunt Li stroked the cat that was resting peacefully on her lap.

"It's not that I don't want to take it, Mr. Yan," she whispered helplessly, "The piece on my nose and chin...is disfigured, and it's not very attractive...It's not good to scare children..."

Yan Tang is extremely sorry.

"Sorry..." He apologized to Aunt Li with some guilt.

Aunt Li smiled indifferently and said, "It's nothing, there's no need to apologize, I'm used to it, it's not a big deal!"

She looked very open-minded, "I used to work in a factory when I was young, and I was injured by a mixer accident. The factory owner is kind, and he thought I was an old employee. He counted my work-related injuries and gave me a lot of money. Only then can I open a breakfast restaurant in Mr. Yan's community..."

Although Aunt Li only briefly mentioned the reason for her wound, the so-called "blender accident" had already made Yan Tang frown, feeling a little shocking.

She said, with a nostalgic tone, "Dasheng, I also met in the factory," she said, raising Mr. Cat's cat paw with a white glove, and waved it at Yan Tang and Ai Bao.

"In the past, it was terrible. In our factory, it was a bully, fighting with wild dogs and wild cats, hunting birds and touching birds' eggs. Everyone in our factory called him General Changsheng! "Aunt Li said, her spirits brightened, "Before the big victory, no one was close, but I was close!"

As she spoke, she looked at the peaceful Dasheng in her arms.

It is old now, gentle and peaceful, not at all majestic and majestic when it was young.

But Aunt Li still loves it.

"The day I left the factory, I asked Dasheng if he wanted to come with me? Guess what?" She spoke vividly and vividly, "Dasheng came to kiss my face and wanted to go with me!"

"Everyone in the factory said that Dasheng and I are destined to be destined! Only I can take it with me." After so many years, Aunt Li is still very proud when she mentions this matter.

The expression on her face broke free from the pale mask and flew out.

Yan Tang didn't interrupt Aunt Li, he and Ai Bao listened quietly.

After Aunt Li finished speaking, she realized that she had broken the habit of chatting with others again.

She touched her face in embarrassment, "Hey, let me tell you a lot of nonsense..."

Yan Tang shook his head sincerely and denied, "No."

"It's a funny story about you and your cat," he said.

Ai Bao behind him also poked his head out, listening quietly to Aunt Li's story.

He has already eaten a new piece of sesame candy with a grunt.

Sure enough, as Aunt Li strongly recommended, this sesame candy tastes great, the first bite, the aroma of sesame and peanut lingering between the lips and teeth.

Every bite is crispy and raw, so delicious that people can't stop.

Ai Bao ate with a bulging face, very happy.

Aunt Li saw that Yan Tang and Ai Bao were very interested, and she became very happy.

She touched Mr. Cat in her arms.

She shared another interesting anecdote.

She said that after she took Dasheng home, Dasheng seemed to have lost his temper and became gentle. The whole cat was gentle and gentle, and he knew how to take care of her.

There was a time before that whenever it rained, she would be in a bad mood, and she couldn't lift her spirits up.When Dasheng saw it, he would sneak out of the house and bring back a small flower or a beautiful leaf for her.

It is sensible and knows that human beings do not like mice and sparrows, but like flowers and plants.

Aunt Li said, and pointed Yan Tang to the pots of flowers at home.

This pot was brought back by Dasheng during the rainy season last year. She pointed to a small pot of lavender flowers on the coffee table and said that she and Dasheng planted this flower branch into the soil and watered it every day. Zhou Shi fertilized, but I didn't expect to feed him.

She pointed to a tall sapling on the side and said that it was a tree that she and Dasheng picked up while walking in the community in October. Come alive.

Aunt Li said with a warm smile on her face.

All the vibrant flowers and plants in the house were created by one person and one cat.

Both Yan Tang and Ai Bao listened carefully.

Yan Tang looked at Aunt Li, although she was no longer young and only showed her eyes, but when she smiled, her brows and eyes were soft, like a pool of spring water, she really looked beautiful.

Yan Tang thought, Aunt Li must have been beautiful when she was young.

Aunt Li was still talking, but she could talk for three days and three nights on any topic related to Dasheng.

Mr. Mao nestled on Aunt Li's lap and flicked his long tail.

It also listened quietly.

Just like when she ruined her face and hid in the back mountain of the factory crying, it nestled in her arms and listened to her cry.

But it is very old now, and it can no longer meow as forcefully as it did in its youth when it cried to her.

Cats are always like this in their life, they will meet someone they love, and then they will grow old slowly.
