Stray animals 2
Wen Jiu finally knew the whole story. She didn't expect that Granny Zhao would be so kind. She would rather go bankrupt to raise these cats and dogs.
But it was expected. If Grandma Zhao hadn't been kind-hearted, how could she have exchanged the waste for food or star coins when she was living on the street?
It's not like she hasn't been to other scrap stations, but those scrap stations only accept scraps with recycling value.
When she first started picking up trash, many of the items she picked up were items that could not be recycled.
Later, relying on the memory of the original owner and the skill of picking up garbage many times, she knew which garbage could be sold, and which ones were real garbage among garbage, waste among waste products.
"Then what does Grandma Zhao think now? Doesn't she want to sell the scrapyard and continue to raise these stray animals?"
Wen Jiu asked worriedly, but Wang Nan could not explain clearly what Grandma Zhao was thinking.
I only know that the scrapyard will not sell them for the time being, because there is no other place to keep these stray animals except the scrapyard.
They wondered if the animals would be particularly noisy when they were hungry, so Granny Zhao took Qiao Shishi to the backyard to get food.
When Granny Zhao and Qiao Shishi came back with food, the animals stopped making noise and gathered around them with their noses wagging.
Even the puppies that were being petted by Chu Jiayan impatiently ran in the direction of Grandma Zhao. It could be seen that they were indeed starving.
Seeing this, Wang Nan scratched his head in confusion and said: "That shouldn't be the case. I fed them well at noon. Why are they hungry before four o'clock in the afternoon?"
"Brother Wang, what time do you usually feed them?" Hearing his words, Wen Jiu couldn't help but leaned over and asked.
"Because Grandma Zhao has trouble with her legs and feet, I have lived here since I came here to work. Then I feed them once every morning at eight o'clock, give them a meal at noon, and feed them again at six o'clock in the afternoon."
Wang Nan rambled on about how he fed these animals and how difficult they were to take care of. He was almost exhausted just cleaning the shack.
However, he complained, but he still helped Granny Zhao feed these stray animals.
Because Grandma Zhao and Qiao Shishi couldn't move much, so when they went to get food for the second time, he went with them, and then came back and was busy greeting these animals to eat.
It's not that Qiao Shishi doesn't want to use the Wisdom Ring Space to carry it directly, it's mainly because Grandma Zhao has been stopping her from helping, saying that she looks like a wealthy lady from a wealthy area, so how can she do such menial work?
"Hey, why do you think this grandma is so stubborn?" Qiao Shishi stood next to Wen Jiu.
She had finally managed to convince Grandma Zhao to let her help move the food, but after moving the food here, the other party stopped her from feeding the stray animals, saying that she was afraid that her clothes would get dirty and stink.
.
But she's really not that squeamish, and she quite likes these little animals.
Hearing this, Wen Jiu sighed and replied: "Grandma Zhao is like this, and it is difficult for others to change her mind."
Although Grandma Zhao is always kind to others and always smiling, her stubbornness is also obvious, and it is difficult for anyone to change her decision.
After she finished speaking, she quickly walked over to Grandma Zhao, picked up an iron bucket and began to help feed the small animals.
"Oh, put it down quickly," Grandma Zhao said in a hoarse voice, with an anxious look on her face, "Just go and stay by the side of your child. Xiao Wang and I will finish feeding it soon."
"Grandma Zhao, I'm here already, how can I just watch from the side." Wen Jiu ignored her obstruction and continued to feed the little animals.
The cats and dogs in front of me seemed to be starving. They buried their heads in the food trough and ate hard without even raising their heads to look at them.
Grandma Zhao originally wanted to stop Wen Jiu from feeding, but Wang Nan shouted loudly: "Grandma! The dog food here is not enough. I will go to the warehouse to get some more."
"Okay, okay, go ahead." Grandma Zhao replied casually.
However, when Wang Nan interrupted her, all the iron barrels around her were lifted away.
I saw Wen Jiu and Qiao Shishi each carrying a large iron bucket. They were walking back and forth by the trough. When they found that there were small animals that had no food to eat, they carried the iron bucket and poured it into the trough.
Grandma Zhao was unable to chase them because of her limited legs and feet, so she could only watch them feed all the small animals that needed to be fed.
"You two kids are really, ugh." She sighed helplessly.
After they fed all the animals, the animals no longer made any noise, and they all nestled obediently in the cotton or straw piles, as if they were full and wanted to rest.
So Grandma Zhao took them out of the shack and walked to her small house.
"Grandma, how many stray animals have you collected now?"
Wen Jiu held the cup and took a sip. The warm water brought her a lot of warmth.
Because Grandma Zhao had difficulty moving, Li Qingyu took the initiative to help with the work.
At this moment, he didn't look like the squeamish young master from a rich family at all. He carried a hot water bottle and poured a cup of hot water for everyone, and also took the initiative to clean the house.
"There must be more than two hundred cats and dogs in total," Grandma Zhao looked at Li Qingyu who was working with admiration, "This kid is very good, his hands and feet are diligent and quick, and he usually spends a lot of time there.
Are you working at home?"
Hearing these words, Qiao Shishi and Wen Jiu almost laughed out loud. How could Li Qingyu work at home? He just knew how to work in front of them.
However, Wen Jiu quickly brought the topic back, "Grandma Zhao, more than two hundred are too many. Didn't the Animal Management Bureau provide a solution? I can't let you keep raising them like this."
Grandma Zhao’s scrap station is about to close down, and she doesn’t know how long she can keep these stray animals.
"Well, the Animal Management Bureau said they would solve it as soon as possible." Grandma Zhao was actually a little distressed. She wanted to save these stray animals and prevent them from living outside and suffering.
But on the other hand, she has to accept the reality that her savings are really running low.
Because she was single, most of the star coins she earned were donated, and she didn't save much in savings over the years.
"But there is no way to keep these stray animals for a long time. The Animal Management Bureau has too much to take care of itself."
Wang Nan spoke more directly and said everything he wanted to say.
"Grandma Zhao, you can't keep them all the time, you have to know that your financial conditions are limited."
