Dream Pet Shop

Since getting his first pet egg, Xia Ji has turned into an old hen hatching eggs, holding his eggs wherever he goes.

After a day like this, Xia Ji felt that this was not the way, not only was it inconvenient to do things, but also his hands were sore, so he ordered an extra-large incubator online and placed the pet eggs in it.

On the first day after the little parrot was taken away, the dream value in the system was still zero, Xia Ji was a little concerned, so he called the man.

"Hi, I'm the owner of Dream Pet Shop, and I want to ask about the situation of the parrot after adoption."

"Ah, hello. My daughter has been watching the parrot. There is no problem at present. Our family will arrive in Xiamen City tomorrow."

"That's it, I wish you a smooth journey. If you have any questions about pet keeping, you can contact me at any time."

"okay, thank you."

After hanging up the phone, Xia Ji breathed a sigh of relief, at least the family didn't throw away the parrot.The happiness between the pet and the owner has not improved, probably because of the exhaustion of traveling and traveling, it is too late to get acquainted with each other.Xia Ji comforted himself, planning to wait and see the situation.

Xia Ji logged into Weibo, shared the news that the parrot was adopted for the first time, and found that the number of Weibo fans had increased by more than 100. After thinking about it, he sorted out the cute photos of the parrot that he had never posted on his phone. sent it up.He wants to manage this Weibo well, maybe if there are more fans, he can receive an advertisement or something.

The first pet egg is still in the process of hatching, and Xia Ji feels like a mother who is pregnant in October every day, looking forward to the birth of her baby every minute and every second.

[Host, the primary task progress is 1/10, please continue to work hard. 】For the past two days, Xia Ji has been staring at the egg without doing anything from morning till night, the system has run out of patience!

"Oh." Xia Ji touched his nose, reluctantly left the incubator, went to the pet cage, and checked his "tasks to be completed."

There are still nine pets left. Under Xia Ji's care, these pets are slowly recovering. They are much more energetic than when Xia Ji first arrived, but some pets have been injured before, and Xia Ji wants to observe for a while.

"It's decided, it's you." Pokeball lover Xia Ji read the second line of the sentence, bent down and took out a three-colored cat from the cage.

Under Xia Ji's care, this three-colored cat has gained weight, and its hair is shiny.

Xia Ji hugged the Sanhua cat to his lap for a while, and couldn't help but think of the black cat that came and went without a trace.He stayed for a while, took a few photos of the Sanhuamao, and posted them on Weibo as usual.

"Dream Pet Shop's second pet looking for an owner, San Hua'er, has a gentle and clingy personality. (The right front paw is not very flexible, ask if the front page can cure it?) If you are the one!"

After posting on Weibo, Xia Ji hugged the Sanhuamao again and began to cut its nails.The nails were cut in half, and the primary school students from the primary school attached to H University came to Xiaji's shop in a swarm, making the cats frightened.

Xia Ji ignored the group of brats and sat on the spot to stroke the cat's fur.

Yamato asked loudly, "Boss, where's your bird?"

"..." Xia Ji was furious, and roared: "Can you speak well, what kind of bird is not a bird, haven't you learned the word parrot!"

This group of elementary school students did not expect that someone like Xia Ji would lose his temper, and they were all stunned by the yelling. One of the boys whispered into the ears of the students next to him: "My mother said that single male owners who run pet shops have mental problems. It appears to be true."

fall!Xia Ji thought to himself, who did I offend by being single?You bunch of brats!

"Okay, boss, where did your parrot go?" Yamato shouted impatiently.

"Adopted!" Xia Ji replied angrily.

"Adopted? Did a girl take it away?" Yamato asked again.

Xia Ji was a little surprised: "How do you know?"

Yamato didn't answer him, and said to himself: "Did you really take it away? Hahaha, okay. Let's go then."

"Eh? We agreed to come and see the little bird that can read poetry, and I even wrote a poem to teach it to read." A group of elementary school students were disappointed and walked out slowly.

The corner of Xia Ji's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself, please don't go around "mistaking people's children".

After cutting the cat's nails, Xia Ji put the cat back in the cage.I went to Weibo again, only to find that Weibo exploded!

"The blogger has released a new pet again! I took a closer look and found that things are not simple!"

"It's not simple +1. If you read correctly, the blogger's cat is a male cat! Sanhua male cat is a beckoning cat!"

"I'll go! Blogger, what is your background? You are a little parrot that can read poetry for a while, and you are a lucky cat for a while. Why is the pet store so good?!"

……

Xia Ji didn't pay attention to the gender of the three-colored cat at all, and immediately went to confirm it, and found that it was really a three-colored cat.He went to Baidu again and found that most of the three-colored cats are female, and male three-colored cats are very rare, and the male three-colored cat is the prototype of the Japanese beckoning cat, and there are people who buy this kind of cat at a high price on the Internet.

What happened was beyond Xia Ji's expectation, and he immediately deleted the Weibo post. After all, such a cat with commercial value will attract many people with ulterior motives.

This incident made Xia Ji realize that his knowledge of animals still lacks a lot.

In the evening, Xia Ji made coffee and was going to catch up on some pet-related knowledge.He went to the small study on the second floor. This small study was full of grandpa's belongings, all covered by old sheets, and a thick layer of dust accumulated on the sheets.Fortunately, the books are all placed in the bookcase, so they are not too dirty.

Xia Ji took out books about pets from the bookshelf, which was full. When Xia Ji took out the books, he accidentally pulled out a worn-out notebook.The notebook fell and just overturned the coffee mug.

Xia Ji: "..."

Xia Ji sighed, and resigned himself to twisting the rag to clean up the spilled coffee.He picked up the wet notebook and looked at it again, struggling to make out the writing on the cover, "Pet...thing...diary, pet diary!"

He accidentally found grandpa's pet diary!

Xia Ji carefully wiped the coffee on the notebook, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart.

When Xia Ji was a child, his grandfather loved him very much, and his liking for small animals was also influenced by his grandfather.Later, he grew up, went to school, and worked, so he rarely had the opportunity to see his grandfather every year.When grandpa passed away, he happened to be looking for a job in other places, so he didn't have time to come back.

Looking at the familiar handwriting on the notebook now, Xia Ji felt as if his grandfather was standing in front of him, feeling sad and missing.

Xia Ji couldn't wait to read the diary, wondering why grandpa opened this pet shop.

The first half of the notebook was wet with coffee and stained together, making it difficult to separate. Xia Ji was afraid of breaking it, so he started reading directly from the part that was not wet.But I found that this diary happened to be written about the little parrot.

——————————————————————————————

March 8st, sunny.

The weather is so hot that the cats and dogs in the shop are sticking out their tongues, and there is not a single customer recently.Fortunately, the summer vacation is coming to an end, and elementary school students nearby began to report today.

Something happened today.

At noon, I took a nap in the store as usual, but I didn’t expect a little boy to come to my store under the midday sun, holding a birdcage in his hand, and his little face was black and red.

I saw that he was about to suffer from heat stroke, so I gave him the sour plum soup in the refrigerator, but he shook his head and said in a loud voice, give it to my little bird first.

He opened the cage in his hand, and carefully took out a little bird from the cage. I saw that it was a very small parrot, blue in color, with a little red on the tail hair, with its eyes closed, lying on the ground. His hands were motionless, already fainted by the sun.

I poured the chilled sour plum soup into the cap of the mineral water bottle, and wrapped ice cubes in a towel and applied it to the parrot. Actually, I didn't know if it would work.

I waited quietly with the little boy. Fortunately, after a while, the parrot recovered and came alive again. It stood up and ran to the bottle cap to drink sour plum soup.

The little boy and I breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, he for his bird, I for him, I was afraid that if the bird died of heat, he would cry and make a fuss in my shop.

Then I poured him another cup of sour plum soup, and he drank it.After drinking, he took out a red envelope from his pocket and gave it to me. I opened it and saw that there was 100 yuan in it.

I put the money back into the red envelope and returned it to him, saying that there is no charge for these two cups of sour plum soup, neither his nor Xiaoniao's.

But he said that it was not the money for sour plum soup, but the money for the little bird he wanted me to adopt.

I could see that he cherished this little bird very much, so I asked him why he didn't keep it anymore.

He said that his parents would not let him keep it, and that it would affect his studies, so he asked him to take the bird out and throw it away, and he was only allowed to go home after losing it.He walked around the street for several hours on a hot day, and finally found my pet shop.

I don't understand what these parents think, how can children's keeping a pet affect their studies.But I really felt sorry for the little boy, and my heart softened, so I agreed to raise this parrot for him. Anyway, I also run a pet shop, so it’s okay to help him raise it. Besides, this parrot is really cute.

In the end, I promised him that he could come in to see his parrot at any time when he passed by my door after school, and he went home happily.

--------------------------------

The diary only writes here.Xia Ji flipped back and found that Grandpa hadn't written anything related to that boy.

Although no name is mentioned in this diary, Xia Ji is almost sure that the boy in his grandfather's diary is Yamato.

In this way, the parrot was originally raised by Yamato, and he just kept the parrot in Grandpa's shop... But now, the parrot has been taken away by others.

The author has something to say: Xia Ji: QAQ
