Strange Life of a Cat

Zheng Tan's impression of Xiaoyuzi's mother stayed in his first year here.

At that time, Zheng Tan felt that Xiaoyouzi's parents were the same type of selfish people as his own. It was probably because Xiaoyouzi had been in the Jiao family for too long, and getting along with the Jiao family was too harmonious and natural. I almost forgot that Xiaoyouzi still has a mother, but this mother rarely calls Xiaoyouzi all year round. Even when the old man and the old lady went to Jiao’s mother’s hometown during the Chinese New Year and summer vacations, they didn’t mention Xiaoyouzi’s mother very much. It can be seen that The old man and the old lady were so dissatisfied with Little Yuzu's mother.

However, no matter how dissatisfied, no matter how wrong, no matter how displeased, this is Xiaoyouzi's biological mother after all.

I haven't come to see her once in three years, and my daughter hasn't said that she wants to take the little pomelo to play with. Why is this woman here now?

Zheng Tan was in a bad mood, and he had already started to imagine all kinds of possibilities. If this woman wants to take Xiaoyouzi abroad to live with her, the Jiao family has no right to stop her.

The more he thought about it, the more irritable he became, Zheng Tan followed Papa Jiao, listening to their conversation patiently. Although the atmosphere is not very good, but we can't stay in the cold all the time, Zheng Tan won't be able to get news in the cold.

Listening, Zheng Tan discovered something, Yuzu has a half-sister, that is to say, shortly after the mother sent Xiaoyouzi back to China, she had a second love abroad, and now she has The youngest daughter is a mixed-race child who is over one year old. What makes Zheng Tan angry is not that Yuzu's mother dumped Yuzu in China to live her own life, but that when she talked about her little daughter, from the expression to the tone of voice, Zheng sighed so much that she wanted to grind her claws. Zheng Tan was a little worried, and said artistically, when the original cinnabar mole on Yuzu's mother's chest turned into a dazzling chili sauce, should she rub it or not?

After talking about his youngest daughter with shining eyes, he may find that this is not a good topic, as you can tell by looking at Papa Jiao's rare black face.

Yuzu's mother coughed in embarrassment and brought the topic back.

Yuzi is in the fourth grade this year. How are your grades? Can you keep up? I'm actually not very optimistic about domestic education. Yuzi's mother said.

Papa Jiao glanced at her indifferently, Yuzi was in the second grade when she was sent back to China.

Xiaoyuzi was sent back to China in 2003, and now it is the second half of 2006.

Yuzu's mother froze, and calculated the year, So, I'm already in the fifth grade. It's so fast.

Papa Jiao glanced at her again, I will be promoted to the sixth grade in September this year, and I will be in junior high school next year. I remember she told you when she skipped a grade.

Yuzu's mother: ...

Well, it's cold again.

Jiao's father usually speaks in a tactful manner, and he rarely says such blunt face-slapping words. From Jiao's father's current tone, Zheng Tan knew that Professor Jiao's mood was indeed not very calm at the moment.

Zheng Tan looked at Yuzu's mother's expression and knew that she really didn't know what to say, she couldn't even laugh dryly. In any case, when it comes to her eldest daughter, she is more guilty.

Yuzu's mother originally planned to come and take a look and then leave. She came to talk because of a business need. It happened that there was a professor who often cooperated with Chuhua University School of Medicine to give a report. She knew about Yuzu's mother and Jiao's father. After the relationship, I also talked to Papa Jiao through Yuzu's mother, in order to go to the Academy of Biological Sciences to observe more about the red nest mouse, and it is best to get some samples or something. After all, Dad Jiao is a red nest mouse The discoverer of the mouse also has a little right to speak. Mice are model organisms in the embryology and developmental biology of mammals. No matter in the School of Life Sciences or the School of Medicine, some related research is inseparable from mice. The red nest mouse is more special. With the The publication of articles with high impact factors by Chuhua University has also caused quite a stir in the relevant international circles. As long as there is an opportunity, you must seize it. The professor obviously understands the skills in this area. In this way, Yuzu's mother will inevitably face Jiao's father directly, and she can't avoid it even if she wants to. She knows that she will be scolded, and Yuzu's mother will have to bear it.

Since you're here, let's sit at home. Your sister said yesterday that she knew you were going back to China. She hasn't seen you for a long time. You sisters are talking. Besides, don't you want to see grapefruit?

...Okay, then I'll bother you. Yuzu's mother knew that she couldn't hide this time, so she could only bite the bullet.

Mother Jiao came back very quickly today, and bought a lot of vegetables. Even though she felt that there was something wrong with her sister, she was her own sister after all. She hadn't seen her for three years.

Jiao Yuan obviously got the letter ahead of time, and he didn't have much enthusiasm for Yuzu's mother, so he ran back to his room to do his homework after yelling.

Zheng Tan was in the room watching Xiaoyouzi draw on the draft paper with a pen, and after a few strokes, he would pick his nails in a daze, obviously not in the mood to do his homework.

Zheng Tan was lying next to him, and when he was about to give him a hug to comfort him, he heard Jiao Yuan's ghost screaming from next door: Heitan—come here quickly, there is a big mouse!

Zheng Tan: ... This kind of excuse also has the face to use it.

Father Jiao, who was chatting with Yuzu's mother in the living room, glanced at Zheng Tan who came out of Yuzu's room through the window, and jumped into Jiao Yuan's room through the window, and said nothing.

Your cat is really special. said Yuzu's mother who heard the sound of turning over the window and looked over.

Papa Jiao didn't deny it: Well, this cat is very energetic and unconventional.

Yuzu's mother: ... Isn't it just a local cat? It's also different from popular customs.

It's cold again.

And Zheng Tan, who turned into Jiao Yuan's room, watched Jiao Yuan anxiously walking around the bed.

Heitan, tell me, did Yuzu's mother come to bring Yuzu back? What if Yuzu really went with her? I heard that her mother is now developing abroad, and her mother doesn't care about her, and she is bullied when she goes out. There is no one to cover it. I don’t know what Yuzu’s idea is. No, I have to do work with Yuzi.”

Jiao Yuan sat down immediately, opened a blank homework book, brushed his sleeves and took a pen, writing something on the paper, which was much faster than when he was holding back his composition.

Zheng Tan jumped onto the desk and looked at it. There were nine large characters on the first line—a detailed count of eighteen crimes abroad.

Listed below are all kinds of bad things abroad, and between the lines, it expresses that Jiao Yuan doesn't want Xiaoyouzi to leave, and at the end he wrote Think carefully and act carefully! with a red pen at the end.

It was rare for Zheng Tan to dislike the dirty paper, so he flipped out the folded paper in his mouth, then went back to Xiaoyouzi's room, and gave the paper to her.

After reading the words on the paper, Xiaoyouzi's face became less bewildered, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she replied Yes below.

Papa Jiao watched Zheng Tan toss and turn between the two rooms, although the movement of the windows was a bit louder, he didn't say anything or stop him.

After eating a meal, although the food is delicious, no one is in that mood. The atmosphere at the dinner table was weird, only Mother Jiao talked a little more. The two sisters stood together, and at first glance, they would not immediately think that they were sisters, perhaps due to the factors of temperament and attire, but if you look closely, the two are still somewhat similar. Yuzu's mother doesn't have enough confidence in front of Jiao's mother. Even if she can surpass Jiao's mother in terms of career, she usually puts on airs in front of others, and here she pretends to be stiff and deliberate.

As for Zheng Tan, who was usually able to stand on a special chair and eat on the edge of the table, he was now placed on a small stool next to him, watching a bowl of food that he couldn't swallow.

Maybe it was the motherhood that was aroused after seeing Xiaoyuzi. Yuzi's mother said that she would stay in Chuhua City for a few days, and it happened to be the weekend the day after tomorrow, so she wanted to take Xiaoyouzi out to play.

This made Zheng Tan even more vigilant. By exchanging feelings and exchanging ideas, he might be able to deceive Xiaoyuzi away. Yuzu's mother already has a young daughter. Now Yuzi will definitely not be happy in the past, let alone there is another one over there who has never met. stepfather. However, Jiao's father and Jiao's mother didn't mention it in front of Xiaoyouzi, probably because they were afraid that Xiaoyouzi would think too much.

It's good to let their mother and daughter talk, Yuzu is precocious, not an ignorant child. Jiao's father said in the evening.

Jiao's mother was a little worried, What if Yuzu chooses to go with her? I don't think it's a good idea. The child may not be happy when she passes by. Why don't I stay with them this Saturday? After thinking about it, Jiao's mother sighed again Forget it, since she said she wanted to be alone with Youzi, she didn't think about letting me intervene. Hey, it would be great if someone reminded Xiaoyouzi. Jiao's mother knew her sister quite well. One day you can speak beautifully, and tomorrow you can make you want to hit the wall.

It's not impossible. Papa Jiao said.

any solution?

Heitan.

Indeed, Yuzu's mother said that she wanted to be alone with Yuzu, but this alone must refer to a specific person, not including Zheng Tan. Zheng Tan is not at ease to let Xiaoyouzi face her character alone. Mother of the earth, what if Xiaoyouzi gets tricked? Yuzu's mother is willing, but Zheng Tan is still reluctant.

Saturday.

Xiaoyouzi went downstairs with her backpack on her back, and Papa Jiao drove her to the appointed place.

The location of the appointment is a restaurant, which is a bit high-end, but for children, it is a bit restrictive and cannot be let go.

Watching Xiaoyouzi walk into the restaurant through the floor-to-ceiling windows, seeing her mother and sitting down, Dad Jiao drove away.

Xiaoyouzi had a serious face, which made the bad atmosphere between mother and daughter even more rigid.

Without Jiao's father and Jiao's mother to supervise the battle, even if she feels a little guilty, Yuzu's mother's words and deeds are smoother. I ordered a glass of juice and a small dessert for Yuzu, drank coffee by myself, and looked at the bag my daughter carefully held in her arms with a smile.

The bag is full, what is it? A gift for mommy? Yuzu's mother tried her best to make her smile amiable.

Xiaoyouzi looked at her mother, bit her lip, then took out a small gift box from her coat pocket and handed it to her mother.

Yuzu's mother looked at the bulging bag, then looked at the gift box in Xiaoyouzi's hand, took it and opened it, it was a small doll, the material was not very new, and the workmanship was not as good as those in the store Also very rough.

Did you make it yourself? Yuzu's mother asked with a smile.

Little Yuzu nodded with her slightly drooping head.

Very nice, mommy likes it very much!

Zheng Tan in the bag scoffed in his heart, true or false, this tone sounds too deliberate. That doll was sewed by Xiaoyouzi with the labor materials saved in the labor skill class and some daily necessities, and the dress of this doll was made according to the dress of Yuzi's mother in a photo.

I don't know if it's because of the anger in my heart or what, Zheng Tan felt that the bag was a bit suffocated, the air holes on the bag didn't get enough air, Zheng Tan opened the zipper on the inner seat of the backpack and stretched out his head to breathe hard.

Yuzu's mother just received the gift, adjusted her mentality and expression, and when she was about to speak, she saw the black cat's head protruding from the backpack, and the smile on her face froze there, and the words she was about to say were also stuck .
