Strange Life of a Cat

The son who had been by my side for more than ten years suddenly separated, and it would take half a year to see each other. Thinking about this, Mother Jiao's mood has never been high.

When eating, there are fewer people, and Jiao's mother eats less.

"What if Youzi leaves after three years?" Papa Jiao said.

Mother Jiao: "..."

As soon as the chopsticks are put down, stop eating! How can this have an appetite? !

Mother Jiao felt sad when she thought that the house would be even more empty in the future.

"I won't leave." Xiaoyouzi said.

Jiao Ma, who was about to go to the toilet and cry hard, stopped her movements. Papa Jiao and Zheng Tan also looked at Xiaoyouzi.

Generally speaking, children who grow up in universities will always tend to other schools after the college entrance examination. Maybe they want to go far away to see the outside world out of the control of their parents; or they may see clearly in it. Some disadvantages of the school, so I want to go to another school; or like Su An, the family has already arranged it. With Xiaoyouzi's grades, she may be like Jiao Yuan in the future, pass the recommendation, or pass the college entrance examination, and then go abroad or something. Xiaoyouzi lived abroad when she was a child, so it is easier for her to adapt than others.

But now, listening to Xiaoyuzi, does this mean that he will apply to the local school in the future, or directly at Chuhua University?

"Well, I'll report here from now on." After a pause, Xiaoyouzi said with a heavier tone, "I won't leave."

"Our school is also good." Papa Jiao nodded.

"Of course it's good. No matter how you say it, it ranks among the top ten in the country! You can still go home to eat and sleep every day! How many people are still envious of coming, and those little bastards still look down on them, and they are very excited!" Hearing Xiao For grapefruit, Mom Jiao felt better.

Regardless of Xiaoyuzi's choice, it will be three years later. However, three years is actually very fast, just like Zheng Tan felt that not long ago, Xiong Xiong and those little kids knocked on the door to find the refrigerator to get popsicles, and now they have grown so big and went their separate ways.

After school started in September, Xiaoyouzi packed up her things and went to the attached middle school, where she would basically live on campus. Xiaoyouzi had already made an appointment with Xie Xin and the others from the West Campus, and her family members also said hello, and they were all in the same dormitory. This is also easy to take care of, and you won't feel uncomfortable.

Looking at the empty home, Jiao Ma sniffed. It doesn't take three years, and it won't be like this in three years. At least Xiaoyouzi can eat and sleep at home if she is admitted to Chuhua University. Now she is so far away from home when she is in high school, and she can only go home in a week. Although Jiao's mother, as a teacher of the attached middle school, can meet Xiaoyouzi at school every day, she still feels uncomfortable not being at home.

The one with the strongest feeling was Zheng Tan, who had to sleep alone at night.

Jiao Yuan can only see each other for half a year, and Xiao Yuzi only sees each other once a week. The 70-square-meter room used to feel crowded, but now it always feels much empty.

During the day, Jiao's father is in the School of Life Sciences, Jiao's mother goes to the attached middle school, and Zheng Tan is at home alone. This feeling of emptiness is even stronger. I didn't feel it when I was alone at home before.

I took out the bicycle that Zhuo Xiaomao gave me and rode around the house, and then turned on the computer and surfed the Internet for a while. It was really boring, so Zheng Tan looked through the unlocked drawer of Xiaoyouzi. In the corner is a palm-sized portable notebook similar to a phone book, but I haven’t used it for a long time. Now I use my mobile phone to record calls, and I don’t use the phone book much.

Zheng Tan took out the phone book and flipped through it. Except for the few phone calls I wrote down earlier, there was nothing special. Most of the phone book was blank.

He took out the phone book, spread it out on the table, and flipped through two pages from the back to the front. Zheng Tan took a ballpoint pen in the pen holder, bent his claws, and got used to it. Write a diary on the notebook.

If it was in the past, Zheng Tan would definitely not have such leisure and patience. Now, it's purely boring and idle, and I just write and play on a whim.

"In 2010, on September 2, Jiao Yuan went to university, and Xiao Youzi was not at home for a week, so I was upset."

After finishing writing, Zheng Tan looked at this short diary, tsk, the writing is so ugly.

Putting the pen back into the pen holder, Zheng Tan wondered if he would write with the pen in his hand from now on? The operation is troublesome and the characters are ugly.

Putting the notebook back again, Zheng Tan came to the master bedroom, turned on the computer again, and registered a Weibo account called "Zheng Tan". At the place where the avatar is set, Zheng Tan looked through the computer. He remembered that there was a folder on a disk that contained a lot of photos of himself. Parents and mothers of Jiao put them there specially. He even scanned a copy of the fashion magazine he brought back. Put a clear picture inside and save it.

Picking out the one that he thinks is the most handsome, Zheng Tan set it as his profile picture. After dealing with it, Zheng Tan posted his first Weibo post since he was a cat.

Of course, when posting on Weibo, Zheng Tan didn't name Jiao Yuan and Xiaoyouzi, but simply typed "I'm not happy at home alone".

After posting, Zheng Tan turned off his phone and stopped surfing the Internet.

Recalling the treasure chest that Hou Junyi had mentioned, Zheng Tan got under the bed and dragged the box out.

It was not covered with a thick layer of dust as expected, but it was still clean. Probably Xiaoyouzi also wiped it with her help.

After recalling the password, Zheng Tan opened the box and began to study the little things inside.

When the time is almost up, go to eat, then wander around and come back to continue research.

a week later.

Zheng Tan had almost studied the contents of the treasure chest. He came out for a walk in the morning, came to the small woods on the edge of the campus, found the pencil hidden in the tree hole, and came to the section of the wall where he had written.

The words were still there, but a little blurred. Zheng Tan retrace it, and then added a sentence below: "September 9, 2010."

After finishing writing, Zheng Tan rewrapped the pencil and put it back in the tree hole, came to the School of Biological Sciences, and entered Papa Jiao's office through the window.

In the office, Yi Xin was talking about some recent research with Papa Jiao. Although he was a teacher, he would still come over to discuss with Papa Jiao when he had any questions.

Seeing Zheng Tan who turned over the window, Yi Xin couldn't help laughing.

"Hey, Heitan, long time no see."

Zheng Tan glanced at Yi Xin, then jumped on his special chair, and let the master and apprentice continue to chat. Zheng Tan decided to catch up on sleep here first. I didn't sleep well last night, and I dreamed again. I dreamed of some familiar scenes. When I woke up in the middle of the night, I was still in a trance, and then I was in a daze until dawn. Now I am not in a good mood.

When Zheng Tan woke up again, it was already noon. Yi Xin had already left, and Jiao Wei brought over a lunch box.

Jiao Wei is now a master's and doctoral student. Now his family's conditions are good, the small restaurant has made some money, and he doesn't have to worry about life. Jiao Wei's parents didn't go to school much before, especially Jiao Wei's father. Like the current Professor Jiao, he will also be a university teacher in the future, and the requirements for university teachers, especially teachers in prestigious schools, are very high, so he has to study further.

Most of the postgraduate students in China don’t get much subsidy. Some students who have graduated will always talk about how much money they have earned from buying a house and a car. Good people will inevitably be swayed by some remarks. In addition, many people find that their graduate career is not what they imagined after studying, and there are many people who give up halfway through their studies.

Jiao Wei's father said to Jiao Wei: Don't worry about reading, you don't need to worry about anything else, your mother and I can survive for several years, and when you really can't do it anymore, you will be in your early years. We are just waiting to be blessed.

The society has become complicated, but many people in the older generation still firmly believe in the famous saying that "everything is inferior, but reading is high", no matter whether this is absolutely true or not, no matter whether the "scholar, farmer, businessman" has changed, it is brought about by some past experiences. The deep-rooted thoughts are difficult to replace.

But Zheng Tan saw that Jiao Wei wasn't that kind of dead-headed person, if he didn't want to, no matter how much his father thought about it, he wouldn't know how to read. Everyone has his own path, and if he chooses himself, he must go down seriously. Zheng Tan just wanted to see how far they could go.

The food in the lunch box was prepared by Jiao Wei's mother, and Jiao Wei brought it over to Dad Jiao and Zheng Tan after lunch.

After dinner, Zheng Tan was going to go out for a walk, but Jiao's father stopped him.

"Heitan, I have something to tell you. Er Mao called this morning." Papa Jiao said.

Zheng sighed one ear. Ermao called, is it an appointment for dinner, or is he planning to go out to play again?

I have to say that over the past few years, Zheng Tan still has a little understanding of Ermao.

Ermao really wanted to go out to play, and he made an appointment with Wei Leng to take his family to visit the old master after the 11th, so naturally he had to call Zheng Tan.

Although Jiao's father and Jiao's mother are not willing to let Zheng Tan go away, now that the two children are not here, once Zheng Tan leaves, there will be only the two of them left. And Zheng Tan's illness last year always made the Jiao family feel uneasy.

However, during this period of time, Papa Jiao saw that Zheng Tan was languid all the time, and there was nothing wrong with his body. It could be seen that he was in a bad mood, so it was okay to go out to relax.

"If you want, you can play with them." Papa Jiao said.

Zheng Tan was feeling unhappy during this time, and he was also moved when he heard that he could go out to play.

"It's still the same old saying, don't make trouble."

It was earlier than what Ermao said, Dad Jiao asked someone to make a cat card, and got it during the National Day holiday.

The cat tag with positioning function can also detect the health status of the wearer.

Zheng Tan has no opinion on this, anyway, he has worn similar ones before.

Because it had been planned a long time ago, Wei Leng took a break and arranged a holiday, worked overtime on November, and rested afterwards. They usually choose to avoid the November holiday when they go out.

Wei Leng's family of three, Ermao's family of three, and Zheng Tan. Heimi is not very happy to travel far now, and he is not placed in the pet center, and is entrusted by Ermao to his mother to take care of him.

When Jiao's mother was packing Zheng Tan's luggage, Zheng Tan also dragged out the treasure chest. The mobile phone and money were also hidden in it. Because the box was locked, Jiao's mother didn't open it. Hoping to get an answer, after packing up and saluting, he asked Father Jiao to carry it downstairs and put it in the trunk of Ermao's car.

"What are you packing? It's really heavy." Er Mao lifted the big bag and said casually without opening it.

Jiao Ma asked Zheng Tan a few words, and told Er Mao to remember to call, Er Mao repeatedly promised.

Gong Qin and Er Yuan sat in the back seat, and Zheng Tan sat in the passenger seat.

According to Ermao's plan, they would go to Qi Da's house first, play around along the road, and then meet up with Pei Liang before going to the old man's house together.

Eryuan has never been to Qi Dada's house, and Wei Leng took this opportunity to take a trip with his wife and children. Qi Dada's house is a very good tourist attraction.

Zheng Tan calculated that this journey would probably take more than half a month or a month, or even longer. No wonder Jiao Ma's face was full of reluctance when she was at home.

Over there, Ermao and Gongqin were talking to Eryuan about Qi Dada's affairs, while Zheng Tan was thinking about orchids. I don't know if those orchids grew more, bloomed more flowers, or were they discovered by others. ?

The next chapter is probably going to be very late, everyone go to bed first.
