Ideal country

It was already very hot at the end of June. During the Dragon Boat Festival, Xing Ye gave everyone a holiday, leaving only himself and Huo Ke, so he simply closed the shop and went home to rest.

"Aren't you going home for the Dragon Boat Festival?"

Huo Ke was watching TV at first, when he heard Xing Ye's question, he turned his head and glanced at him, and said very calmly: "I don't have a home, my mother died when I was very young."

Xing Ye paused for a moment while searching for ingredients in the refrigerator, and then closed the refrigerator door: "What do you want to eat at noon? Do you want to eat zongzi?"

When Huo Ke heard it, his eyes lit up, and he forgot what the two were talking about before: "Eat!"

Xing Ye put on his wallet: "Then let's go."

Zongzi, which is a relatively difficult thing, Xing Ye has never done before, but after checking the recipe, it seems that it is not very difficult, so I have nothing to do today, so I bought some glutinous rice, rice dumpling leaves, cotton thread and other materials. Go back and do it.

Huo Ke was very excited, playing with glutinous rice and thread for a while, adding to the chaos.Xing Ye didn't say anything about him, he made a few according to the tutorial, Huo Ke also made a few in a learned way, and sent them to the pot to steam together.

After steaming for two hours, the smell of zong leaves was already wafting in the room. Xing Ye felt that it was almost done, so he took one to see if it was done.

Huo Ke eagerly expressed that he would be the first to try it, so Xing Ye cut the cotton thread, peeled it and handed it to him, asking him if it was done while telling him to iron it carefully.

"How about it?"

Huo Ke took a bite and chewed, it felt a bit hard, but the novelty still prevailed: "Delicious!"

He was about to take a second bite when Xing Ye stopped him.Xing Ye looked helplessly at the raw glutinous rice exposed in the gap: "You are really flattering, it's still delicious, but it's not cooked yet. Don't eat it, throw this away. I'll cook it for a while."

The two waited in the kitchen for a long time, opened the lid again, and found that it was still not steamed. After checking the Internet, they found that glutinous rice should be soaked in advance, and it is best to cook it in a pressure cooker, otherwise it will be very difficult to cook.

In the end, I went to the supermarket to buy ready-made vacuum-packed rice dumplings.

Xing Ye peeled one and put it into Huo Ke's bowl: "Try it, is it delicious?"

Huo Ke worked with Xing Ye all afternoon, and finally ate it. He nodded excitedly: "This is delicious! It's better than the one I ate in the afternoon!"

Xing Ye smiled: "That one is not cooked yet, it's no wonder it tastes good."

That Huo Ke had already started eating, and had no mouth to speak at all.

Of the so many zongzi bought back, Xing Ye ate three, and Huo Ke ate four by himself, and he felt a bit full after eating.Xing Ye patted his round belly with some amusement, and took the dishes to the kitchen to wash.

Huo Ke watched the program on TV introducing the traditional customs of the Dragon Boat Festival on the sofa, feeling very novel.

"Aiye...realgar wine..." He muttered to himself for a while, then excitedly ran to Xing Ye and asked Xing Ye, "Xing Ye, do you have mugwort leaves and realgar wine at home? I watched the program saying that mugwort leaves should be planted to drink realgar wine during the Dragon Boat Festival." of."

Xing Ye was originally calculating the accounts of the store for the previous month, but he forgot where he had calculated it, so he had to stop and answer him: "There is no mugwort leaves at home, and there is no realgar wine either. That is poisonous and cannot be drunk. But there are still some rice wine, if you want to try it, you can try it.”

This rice wine was brought to him by Xing Ye's friend who went to Shaoxing last month, but he didn't like drinking very much, so he kept it in the corner of the utility room.

Listening to the movement, Xing Ye probably thought that Huo Ke had gone to find wine at the place he said, so he ignored him and let him go to find it.

When the work at hand was finished, Xing Ye was about to go outside to pour a glass of water, but suddenly found that there was no movement outside, only the sound of the TV.

His heart tightened, and he was thinking that Huo Ke might be drunk, so he opened the door and went out to have a look, he was suddenly confused.

There is no Huo Ke on the sofa, only a very familiar little cat sleeping next to the wine jar.

Xing Ye originally tried to convince himself, but Huo Ke went out and this little cat slipped in, but Huo Ke's clothes scattered on the sofa made it impossible for him to ignore the near-truth speculation in his mind.

He walked over and gently pushed the sleeping kitten. The kitten only grunted twice, waved its paws weakly in the air twice, and fell into a deep sleep again.

Xing Ye sat down at the side, only to feel that everything that confused him before seemed to be explained.

For example, he never told Huo Ke the origin of the chocolate, for example, Huo Ke said that he could speak cat language, for example, Huo Ke said that he had observed himself for a long time, but he had no impression of him at all...

Huo Ke slept until midnight, and woke up leisurely, only feeling that his head was still a little swollen.

He sat up frowning, feeling extremely thirsty, and was about to lift the quilt and get out of bed to drink a glass of water, when he heard a faint voice from beside him: "You're awake."

Huo Ke only felt that the hairs all over his body were blown up from fright, and when he looked to the side, he realized that it was Xing Ye.

"Why..." Huo Ke just wanted to ask Xing Ye why he came to his room in the middle of the night without sleeping, when Xing Ye interrupted: "You are a cat."

Not an interrogative sentence, but an affirmative sentence.

Huo Ke was a little dazed, what happened during the time he fell asleep?

He looked at Xing Ye cautiously, making sure that there was no hatred or fear in his eyes, and then whispered: "You...how did you know..."

Xing Ye sighed in his heart, this silly cat.

If he was skeptical when he saw the little cat sleeping on the sofa before, when he carried the little cat to Huo Ke's room later, when the little cat suddenly turned into a big naked living person, he was There's really no doubt about it.

"Don't drink outside next time." Xing Ye handed him the water glass on the bedside table, turned and left without answering any questions.

Huo Ke looked at Xing Ye's leaving direction with a bewildered expression while holding the water glass.

do not drink alcohol?What's the meaning?Huo Ke thought about it carefully, and found that the last memorable scene he had was when he dug out Xing Ye's rice wine from the utility room and took it to the living room to drink.At first, he still felt a little unaccustomed to it, and felt that it was a bit spicy in the mouth, but after drinking it, he felt a wonderful aftertaste, so he drank it one after another.After that... is now.

Could it be that he drank too much and changed back to his original form?But he is still wearing his clothes well now. If he really changed his body and changed back, who would wear the clothes for him?

Huo Ke pursed his lips, his face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.Ahhh, it must not be because he got drunk and turned himself into an exposure, it must be because he was too drunk and Xing Ye overheard him talking nonsense!Well, it must be so!
