Chapter 79 Concept of raising cubs

Zhao Jinbao twisted his fat body and stumbled back to the village.

　　It wasn't until I rushed into my own yard that I felt relieved.

　　Glancing at the kitchen, his mother Wang Ying was lighting the fire to cook. The third and fourth sisters were washing clothes and feeding the chickens. Dad and grandma were not there either.

Zhao Jinbao was a little scared, patted his small chest that was rising and falling violently, and kept looking outside, for fear that the black dog would chase him.

　　But there wasn't even a human figure outside, let alone a dog shadow.

　　Not long after, He Huifen came back.

　　After a while, his father Zhao Qingshan also came back, and the smell of rice wafted from the kitchen.

　　Wang Ying invited everyone to come in for dinner, and Zhao Jinbao responded, but still squatted in the yard and played with dirt.

　　I don't know what happened to Ye Anbai later. He didn't dare to tell the adults rashly, so he had to wait in the yard.

　　When it got dark, he heard the noise coming from next door. When he stood at the door and looked out, he saw that it was indeed Ye Anbo.

　　Ye Anbai was covered in dirt, her hair was messy and dirty, her pants were wet, and she didn't know if she peed.

　　He kicked off his shoes and was about to turn into the door of Ye's house with a slumped head.

　　What happened today really frightened Ye Anbo.

　　Although the black dog did not bite him, he still bruised his hands when he was thrown to the ground. Now the palms of both hands are bloody and painful.

　　Ye Amber gritted his teeth, he must tell grandma!

　　That little bitch Fu Ge'er dared to let the dog bite him. I'm really tired of living!

　　Grandma loves him the most. Tomorrow he must let her take care of that little bitch!

　　Ye Anbai thought bitterly.

　　Just as he was about to step over the threshold, a hand suddenly stretched out from the side, grabbed his arm, and dragged him aside.

　　Zhao Jinbao is strong and strong, and his flesh is not in vain. He can drag Ye Anbai with ease.

　　"Ah~"

　　Ye Anbai was startled, and just as he was about to scream, Zhao Jinbao covered his mouth.

　　"it's me!"

　　"You...what are you doing!"

　　Ye Anbo opened his hand and glared at him: "You didn't run very fast in the afternoon!"

　　Zhao Jinbao looked innocent: "Didn't you tell us to run quickly?"

　　Amber Ye:...

　　He said angrily: "If you have something to say, say it quickly, and if you have something to say, let it go!"

　　"What about the gadgets Brother Fu gave you? Have you got them back?" Zhao Jinbao asked.

　　He was also thinking about Fu Zai and Shi Tou's fancy gadgets.

　　Ye Anbai shook his head. He was so scared that he couldn't care about anything else.

　　"Then we will go find them tomorrow." Zhao Jinbao said, "Don't tell the adults what happened today."

　　"Why?"

Ye Anbai's hands were hurting to death. He wished he could ask Wu Xianglian to beat Fu Zai right away.

　　"You're stupid," Zhao Jinbao's beady eyes were shining, "Brother Fu is wrong to let the dog bite you. If we threaten him with this, he will definitely be afraid. Then it won't be you and him. He will give you whatever you want."

　　Upon hearing this, Ye Anbai suddenly realized.

　　Yes, he was scared to death by that little beast today, and he didn't get any benefits at all. How could he just let it go?

　　It's better to use this to threaten Fu Zai. Ye Anyian will make these gadgets anyway. If it's not what he wants, Fu Zai will have to give him what he wants!

　　"I know." Ye Anbo replied.

　　Zhao Jinbao concealed his pride and patted Ye Anbai on the shoulder: "I came up with this idea for you. If you get those fun things by then, don't forget me."

　　"I know, I know." Ye Anbai was impatient, his hand still hurt.

　　After the two children finished their plot, they went home, and the street returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

　　…

　　Early the next morning, Ye Annian and Jiang Zhu were eating the morning meal with their two children, when Shitou came carrying a small bamboo basket.

　　As soon as he saw the stone, Fu Zai immediately picked up the rice faster.

　　After finishing the porridge in the bowl, he simply put down the bowl and chopsticks and said to Ye Anyian: "Brother, I'm full. Can I go out to play with Brother Shitou?"

　　Ye Anyian drank the porridge slowly without raising his head: "Go ahead and pay attention to safety."

　　"Okay," Fu Zai agreed readily, "Can Brother Qiu come with us?"

　　Hearing the sound, Ye Anyian raised his head and glanced at Ding Qiu sitting beside him, and said calmly: "Okay, but Brother Qiu's eyesight is inconvenient, you have to take more care of him."

　　"I will!" Fu Zai promised.

　　The three children walked out the door hand in hand, and Copper Coin followed them, wagging their tails.

　　Ye Annian stared at the three small figures disappearing at the entrance of the courtyard, and did not look back for a long time.

　　"What are you looking at?"

　　Jiang Zhu stretched out his chopsticks and waved them in front of him, and Ye Anian came back to his senses.

　　"Nothing." He said, picked up the small spoon and continued to drink the porridge.

　　Seeing his distracted look, Jiang Zhu narrowed his eyes.

　　"You've been looking like this since last night until now. Why, what's the matter with the two children?"

　　"It's okay." Ye Anyian replied.

　　Jiang Zhu refused: "You and Ding Qiu have been talking to each other since last night. Don't think I don't know."

　　"I really don't know what it is." Ye Annian laughed and told Jiang Zhu about the strange thing he and Ding Qiu noticed about Fu Zai yesterday.

　　"So, are you planning to let Ding Qiu go explore the bottom?" Jiang Zhu smiled, "Since you are worried, just ask if you can? Fu Zai is so good, how can I not tell you?"

　　Ye Annian shook his head: "Children also have their own ideas and little secrets. Since he plans to hide it from us, he must have his own reasons or difficulties."

　　"so what?"

"So we must also respect the children's ideas so that we can trust each other. In this way, if they encounter something beyond their ability in the future, they will trust and rely on us more, instead of just thinking about how to solve it themselves without telling us."

　　Ye Anyian spoke eloquently, but Jiang Zhu smiled and rolled his eyes. As expected, he was glared at by Ye Anyian.

　　Jiang Zhu coughed slightly and suppressed his smile: "Then you still let Ding Qiu be the internal response. Where do you trust him?"

　　"You do not understand."

　　Ye Anian said nothing and stood up to put away the dishes. Jiang Zhu hurriedly followed him.

　　The children at home were not around, so it became extra quiet.

　　Ye Annian has already finished all the orders for the noble master. Yesterday afternoon, he tried to make a wooden Rubik's Cube. According to the modern style, the six sides were painted with different colors.

　　After spending the night, it is now dry.

　　He took the Rubik's Cube over and tried to turn it twice. It was a bit difficult and the smoothness was still a bit lacking.

　　Thinking of the rapeseed oil he put on the long table of the Medicine House, Ye Anian thought, went to the Medicine House, dipped some oil in with a small brush, and moistened it along the gaps of the Rubik's Cube.

　　After brushing the oil, wipe the outside with a soft cloth, and try to turn it again. It is much better than before. I think the buckle in the middle is still too tight, so I need to make it a little looser next time.

　　Ye Annian turned the Rubik's Cube around to try his hand. When he raised his head, he caught a glimpse of Jiang Zhu, who was turning over medicinal materials in the courtyard. He scrambled the Rubik's Cube and walked over.

　　"Try it?" He handed the Rubik's Cube to Jiang Zhu.

　　Jiang Zhu took it and looked at the new gadget over and over: "Is this the one you were talking about, the Rubik's Cube?"

　　Ye Annian nodded and told him how to play the Rubik's Cube: "You need to put these six colors together, and then each layer and column can be rotated."

　　Jiang Zhu tried it, and interest appeared in his eyes. This little thing is really interesting.

　　Seeing his interested look, Ye Anyian curled his lips: "Then you have fun, I'll make a few more rattles and sell them when I go to town tomorrow."

　　"Okay." Jiang Zhu put the Rubik's Cube away and continued to rummage through the dried herbs.

　　He originally planned to go to the town today, but since last night, he discovered that Ye Anyian and Ding Qiu were secretly plotting something. He was worried and did not go.

　　Now that I know the reason, but I have missed the oxcart to the town, I plan to prepare the medicine at home.

　　It happened that the two children were not at home, so they could live a world of two.

　　After finishing the work at hand, Jiang Zhu entered the medicine house with the Rubik's Cube and sat next to Ye Anian to play.

　　Ye Annian sat with his back straight and his wrists hanging to outline the pattern on the rattle. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Jiang Zhu seriously pondering the Rubik's Cube. He pursed his lips, planning to take action again if Jiang Zhu really couldn't solve it.

　　However, it didn't take long for Jiang Zhu to successfully restore the six sides to their original positions and show them to Ye Anian with a smile.

　　"I put it together."

Ye Annian had just finished drawing a drum head. When he saw this, he put down the brush in his hand, took the Rubik's Cube and looked at it. Sure enough, he did it perfectly.

　　He looked at Jiang Zhu in surprise: "You can do it."

　　…

　　On the other side, Fuzai, Dingqiu and Shitou went to the place where the kitten was hidden yesterday.

　　Ding Qiu has poor eyesight and was led by Fu Zai all the way. But over the years, he has gradually become accustomed to the darkness. His senses and intuition are very sensitive. Although he cannot see, he can tell the general direction.

　　The three of them found the big trees. The thorn nest they surrounded the kitten yesterday was still there, and the kitten was lying quietly on the thick grass.

　　Maybe it was too badly injured, but it still maintained the same posture as yesterday, as if it hadn't moved at all.

　　But when it saw Fu Zai and the stone, its dim eyes suddenly lit up.

　　"Mimi, we're here to see you!" Fu Zai saw the pitiful look and quickly stretched out his little hand to touch the kitten's head.

　　The kitten tried hard to raise its head, as if it wanted to nuzzle Fu Zai with its head, but it didn't have the strength.

　　At this time, it caught a glimpse of Ding Qiu standing behind Fu Zai. This face was so frightening that the little thing's pupils shrank suddenly and its fur stood up.

　　"Meow meow!"

　　The kitten let out a ferocious warning sound.

　　"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid," Fu Zai quickly smoothed his fur, "This is the doctor brother who will treat your injury."

　　I don't know if he really understood it, but the kitten stared at Ding Qiu warily for a while, then stopped barking, and its fur was smoothed down by Fu Zai.

　　Shitou took out the steamed buns he brought for the kitten from his own basket, broke them into pieces and soaked them in the vegetable soup. Then he put the bowl into Ding Qiu's hand: "Feed it, so that it gets familiar with you."

　　"Okay, I'll try." Ding Qiu responded.

　　But he couldn't see it, and the kitten was surrounded by thorns again. Fuzai saw that his hand almost touched the thorns, so he and the stone gently took the kitten out and placed it on the grass.

　　Then he helped Ding Qiu squat down and fed the steamed buns to the kitten.

　　As soon as there was food, the kitten's energy improved a lot, and it wolfed down the food, obviously starving.

　　After it finished eating, Shitou took the bowl and ran to the river to scoop out water for it.

　　Fu Zai asked Ding Qiu: "Brother Qiu, his tail and hind legs seem to be broken. Can you cure them?"

　　Last night, Fu Zai told Ding Qiu about the kitten, but he concealed the part about his quarrel with Ye Anbo and the others, and about going into the water to catch the cat.

　　"I have to check its injuries first," Ding Qiu said.

　　He had previously studied medicine and herbal medicine with Jiang Zhu. In order to train him, Jiang Zhu did let him try to prescribe prescriptions and also taught him about the treatment of trauma, but this was the first time he actually saw a doctor.

　　Even though it's just a kitten.

Ding Qiu touched the kitten's small, warm body and couldn't help feeling nervous.

　　He must cure the kitten.
