The daily life of the villain raising cubs [British and American]

It seems that because of the rain just yesterday, the air this morning is exceptionally fresh.And because April is about to enter, even the cold wind that was cut by a knife in the early spring has gradually become warmer.

Su Qizhi opened the door lightly, took a deep breath, and then looked left and right at the corner of the street.

"Morning, Mr. Su, I'm out waiting for the newspaper again." The old Anthony next door leaned against the door, skillfully rolling a cigarette with his hands, and raised his head to greet him.

"Good morning, Anthony." Su Qizhi also replied casually. He came out on time. Every day at this time, newsboys would run in the streets and alleys, bringing the freshly released newspapers to everyone.

In this era, radio stations were actually very popular, but now it was morning, and there were not many people inquiring about the news when they went to the tavern to drink and pass the time. More people were still willing to buy a newspaper, so as not to be blind.But these are of the middle class and the upper classes, who continue to carry on the habits of the past.

Because now is the period of the Great Depression, the poor in the lower neighborhoods can't even afford alcohol, and even fewer people are willing to buy a newspaper.Everyone on the entire 87th Street knows that only Dr. Su, who used to run a clinic, still has this spare money.

"Mr. Su! Your newspaper and milk!" A little boy with a cloth bag slung over his shoulder ran over from the corner, handing the newspaper in one hand and the milk bottle in the other.His hand was steady, and the milk didn't spill out from the mouth of the bottle at all, which showed that the child had already done a lot of this kind of work.

"Thank you." Su Qizhi thanked him and took the milk bottle carefully, without turning his head, he could feel the envious gaze from the old Anthony next to him.

The milk bottles of this era have neither caps nor seals, and are generally delivered directly to the steps of the user's door.But if the owner doesn't come out quickly to get it, sparrows and red-breasted birds will come and steal the milk skin on the top of the bottle.

Needless to say, Su Qi's House is the first place to drink milk on the entire 87th street.In the past two months, seeing that the situation of each family has turned around, and the troubles are not as serious as the previous two years, Su Qizhi started to buy milk for little Tom, trying to raise him white and fat.

This is also convenient for the child. He is responsible for this bottle of milk every day, and he can sell newspapers in other neighborhoods after delivery.

"Mr. Su, my dining table was scratched again by Howard, please borrow your old newspaper to spread it." Old Anthony said, "Ella baked vegetable pie today, it must be delicious with milk Breakfast, I'll bring you a plate later."

"Okay." Su Qizhi exchanged a tacit look with him.

This is the practice of the two families, and it is convenient to exchange things.It is said to be an old newspaper, but it is actually from yesterday at most, and it is still brand new, waiting for old Anthony on the cabinet at the door.In fact, old Anthony didn't do it to read the reports, but to have a little entertainment every morning when eating, so he didn't care what day the newspaper was.

Who doesn't envy the close relationship between Stark's family and Mr. Su's family, even the old newspapers from the next day are often given to neighbors to read.But in fact, the old Anthony's family also helped a lot.In the past two years, one of Su Qi didn't know how to cook, how to mend little Tom's clothes, and didn't know where there were weeds that could be eaten or used as medicine. These things were all guided by the old Anthony and his wife.

"Ah!" Little Tom's exclamation suddenly came from the room.

In the quiet morning, the shout was so loud that the newspaper boy who hadn't gone far turned back in doubt.

Before Su Qizhi had time to enter the door to see what was going on, there was a sound of thumping footsteps, and Little Tom rushed out with messy hair holding a gift box, looked up at Su Qizhi, and was full of surprise: "Dad! This is you Send me a little snake?"

The packing box in the little boy's hand has been opened, and there is no cover. It can be clearly seen that there is a thin brown-gray snake coiled inside. It holds its head up, and its small eyes are not sure where it is looking. .

Su Qizhi didn't answer in a hurry, but smiled and looked at old Anthony, and after signaling, she led little Tom in and closed the door, then put the newspaper and milk on the table, and said, "Yes, you are going to wake her up." what name?"

"Nagini!" Little Tom blurted out excitedly, "I want to be like little Hero, Nagini is my snake friend!"

He suddenly lowered his head, looked at the little snake, as if he was listening to something, and then suddenly let out a cold and weird hissing sound from his mouth, but his face was still full of excitement, as if he hadn't noticed it.

Su Qizhi was thoughtful.

Is this the snake language?People who speak Parseltongue are called Parseltongue.I heard that speaking Parseltongue in their eyes is like speaking English normally, and there is no difference.

"Dad, Nagini told me that she used to live in England and was captured by a very vicious uncle." Little Tom raised his head in confusion and excitement, his black eyes glowed with excitement, "... ...I, I can also speak Parseltongue? Just like little Hero!"

"Yes." Su Qizhi patted his head and explained, "That's my friend, I ask him to help me find snakes. Also, Tom, I will learn snake language from you next time."

"Father? Follow me to learn Parseltongue?" Little Tom was so dizzy by the words, he repeated the question foolishly, and the smile on his face grew bigger.

"Are you so happy?" Su Qizhi hugged the little boy to the chair and told him to put the snake box aside, urging, "Tom, drink the milk quickly. You should discuss it so that Nagini will not bite you in the future." , It's a poisonous snake... But it might be okay if you bite it? Your current physique is not like that of an earthling. Alright, I'll deliver newspapers to your Uncle Anthony's house."

The black-haired young man turned around and went out. Little Tom raised his head carefully and saw the white Samoyed dog and the black cat on the cloth sofa next to him staring at the little snake in the box. Their eyes were piercing and focused. , looking very alert.

"Nagini won't bite me." Little Tom quickly protected the box, stared at the cat and the dog with a sullen face, and then fumbled for the milk bottle to drink milk.

"Is your name Tom?" came a soft voice in the room, but only little Tom could understand it so far.The little snake in the box straightened up, eagerly looked at the milk bottle close at hand, and begged, "Can you give me some milk too?"

"You want to drink this?" Little Tom paused.

Guiltily, he turned his head to look a few times, but he didn't hear the sound of his father coming back, so he quickly jumped off the chair and found an old wooden bowl from the cupboard, poured some milk into it, put it beside the box, and said in a low voice: "Hurry up, milk is quite expensive. Dad buys it every day, but he never drinks it himself. If Dad finds out I pour milk for you, maybe he will punish me."

"I've never had milk before," replied the little snake.It slowly crawled out of the box, flipped over into the wooden bowl with a bang—because it was so small, it looked like a milk bath, and hummed happily.

Little Tom had never done such a guilty conscience, while anxiously watching the little snake drink milk at the speed of a turtle, while fidgeting and listening to the sounds outside.Soon the familiar footsteps sounded again, scaring him to pick up the bowl and try to hide it.

But before Little Tom could find a good place to hide, Su Qizhi, who was carrying the grilled vegetable cake, had already returned.

"What are you doing?" Su Qizhi asked in surprise, and walked over to put the plate on the table.He saw the snake soaked in the milk bowl at a glance, and saw the guilty and flustered face of the little boy, so he understood.

"It's fine to give him your milk, but we agreed."

Su Qizhi was not angry either, and pushed the vegetable cake over there. Little Tom quickly sat back on the chair and drank a few mouthfuls of milk, then picked up a piece of cake with a guilty conscience, "What? Dad?"

"Nagini is your pet, so you have to feed him everything in the future, and you have to prepare his nest." Su Qizhi's face showed a hint of malice at this moment, but it was just that Little Tom After blinking, as if the hallucinations were gone, he continued,

"You need to go to the library to find the answer to the habits of the young snake and what to eat, but I will give you a suggestion - if you are going to the river to catch its food, you must bring Mao Mao and Slime, They can help too."

It is already very euphemistic to say that it is helping. Little Tom, who is only four years old, has small arms and legs. Compared with the half-meter-high river, it is not sure who is taller. I am afraid that he will become a slime catching fish. Little Tom Playing in the water, Maomao looks at people.

Anyway, Su Qizhi is not in a hurry to do something now, he mainly wants to cultivate Tom's sense of responsibility since childhood.

"Okay!" Little Tom didn't think too much, when he heard that he was in charge of the little snake and could go to play in the river, he immediately leaned over and flung himself on Su Qizhi's lap coquettishly.A resounding kiss with a milky taste came to Su Qizhi's side face, and she felt extremely happy, "Daddy is the best!"

"Then why don't you drink the milk, really, you didn't comb your hair neatly when you got up, do you like Nagini so much?" Su Qizhi complained, and brought the comb over, and under the action of Little Tom automatically coming over to please him with a smile, He began to straighten the curled hair on his head as if no one else was there.

Little Tom: "???"

Dad, what is this operation?

Since I said this, don't you mean to comb his hair?What does it mean to comb your hair?

Su Qizhi looked at Little Tom's stunned and aggrieved eyes that were rounded, with a look of astonishment, and he continued to comb with a sullen face as if nothing had happened, but he almost couldn't hold back the laughter brought by the wickedness in his throat.

So cute, little Tom, always so funny to tease.

The father and son finished their breakfast quietly, with a little communication between Tom and the little snake Nagini, and his translation of Su Qizhi.When Su Qizhi was washing the dishes, she heard a noise outside, which seemed to be coming from the next door.

"What's going on?" Su Qizhi and little Tom looked at each other, one big and one small put down the things in their hands, and hurried out to check.

There were quite a few well-dressed people in front of the old Anthony's house next door, all of them were very enthusiastic, vying to say something, and Ella, who opened the door, was a little dazed and afraid.After listening for a long time, she stopped those people and concluded hesitantly:

"Are you here... to interview my husband and son who were saved by Wumingxia?"

"It would be even better if I could go to the radio station with me for an interview!" one of them rushed to say, with a positive and friendly attitude.The rest of the people couldn't let him say everything, they shouted again and again.
