A bunch of gentlemen were a little high, so they drank liquor, brandy, whiskey, and hot pot's best partner, beer. Anyway, whoever wanted to drink whatever they wanted.
As a result, except for Zhang Chi, all the old men in the group were walking a bit unsteadily.
Fortunately, the ladies drank little and had no problem driving. Otherwise, Zhang Chi would not have dared to let these people leave easily.
Everything is eaten cleanly, and the dishes are all served on plates, so there is almost no need to wash them, which is quite good.
"Sister-in-law, you want to leave too? Why don't you stay here for one night? It's still a long way back."
Zhang Chi saw that Li Qin was leaving, so he spoke out.
Li Qin smiled and said: "It's okay."
"It's okay!" Li Qiao was already a little confused at this time.
Seeing her husband like this, Li Qin smiled and said: "Look at this drink, can't you drink less? Don't mind, he hasn't been so happy for a long time, there are not many friends here,...hey".
Zhang Chi now knows something about Brother Li. He did not come here voluntarily. It was equivalent to being assigned by the company. If the economic conditions were good, Brother Li would definitely quit his job, but now he
I didn't dare, it's not easy to find a suitable job now, so I had to move from a big city to a small town like Folsom.
"Don't mind me. Brother Li is a very nice person. You can come here more often when you have time. You're welcome. We are all Chinese and should move around frequently," Zhang Chi said.
Zhang Chi also noticed that Li Qiao was really happy today.
Li Qin said: "That's natural!"
After saying that, she began to try to lift Li Qiao up, but drunk people are heavier than ordinary people, so how could Li Qin be able to lift her husband up with her own strength?
Zhang Chi quickly stretched out his hand and lifted Li Qiao onto the car.
He put Li Qiao into the car and sat firmly on the seat, then put the safety belt on Li Qiao.
Li Qin took the children into the car, closed the door, and said to Zhang Chi, "Let's go."
"Be careful on the road."
Li Qin said: "It's okay. The roads here are not very safe in big cities. Besides, there is no snow on the road now. That means there is still some snow on the cement road from here."
With that said, Li Qin looked into the room and said to Zhang Chi: "Zhang Chi, the girl in the room is nice. You believe my sister-in-law, this girl is generous and not pretentious...".
Zhang Chi was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then he burst into laughter: "Sister-in-law, you are wrong. Melika is not my girlfriend. We are just friends, and we are not suitable for each other. Things are a bit complicated. For a while,
I can’t even explain it even if I’m half-skilled.”
What can Zhang Chi say? Melika is a rich girl and he is a poor boy. It’s not that Zhang Chi has low self-esteem or anything, but that the social class gap between the two is too big.
Moreover, Zhang Chi doesn't like Melika's character very much. She doesn't take advantage of her enough and always wants to pry into her secrets.
Li Qin smiled: "Okay, I'm leaving."
Li Qin felt that these two people must not have reached that point yet. If a man and a woman are pure friends, it can only prove that at least one party does not have that intention, and even if one party does not have that intention, when a catalytic incident occurs,
, the two of them must have got something.
But it's none of her business, she just needs to mention it, life is still between two people, she doesn't want to mess with it.
"Let's go!"
Zhang Chi repeated "Be careful" and watched Li Qin's car drive out of sight.
When I returned to the house, I saw that Melika had washed most of the dishes, so I went over to help.
"After having a meal at your house and working for a day, do you know how much money I can earn in a day?" Melica complained jokingly.
"Work hard and I won't see you complaining when you eat."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Chi heard the meowing sounds of two dogs.
"What's the name? Go to sleep," Zhang Chi shouted at Ergou.
But the two dogs turned a deaf ear and continued to meow at Zhang Chi.
Melika said: "Is there something wrong with Ergou? Why are they barking at you today?"
"What can it do? It just gave birth to a baby," Zhang Chi said.
Melika was startled after hearing this: "The second dog gave birth to a kitten?"
Well, Zhang Chi said yes.
"So fast?" Melika said.
"Is it fast?" Zhang Chi was a little confused.
"Hurry up," Melika said and walked towards Ergou.
Ouch, ow!
The two dogs immediately became irritable, raised their tails high, all the hair on their tails exploded, and the hairs on their backs also became a little stiff, and issued a warning to Merika, who was walking over.
Melika had no choice but to stop.
"Ergou doesn't like me, why?"
Zhang Chi replied: "You ask me about this? How do I know why it doesn't like you. But don't worry too much. There are many people it doesn't like, and you are not the only one."
Ergou is indeed like this. Among the neighbors who have been to the ranch, Ergou has never given anyone a good look, including the children. Even if Cannon wants to stroke him, Ergou most of the time has an expression of giving me a hard time.
I have to say that Ergou is a very characterful cat, which Zhang Chi likes very much.
When Melika came back to work, the two dogs meowed again.
Zhang Chi was annoyed by its barking, so he put down what he was doing and wiped his hands with a towel: "It barks like an egg all day long."
Seeing Zhang Chi approaching, the two dogs barked twice more and walked towards the house. After taking two steps, they looked back at Zhang Chi and barked twice more.
Zhang Chi now understood that Ergou was telling him to follow him.
Following Ergou back to the house, Ergou quickly took out the kitten, jumped onto the bed and placed it next to Zhang Chi.
"What are you doing for me?" Zhang Chi was a little speechless.
The little kitten has not opened its eyes now, and its voice is very low. You can't hear the little squealing tune unless you listen carefully.
Zhang Chi touched it with his hand and found that the cat's belly was flat and there was nothing at all.
"Breastfeeding, don't you nurse your own little one?" Zhang Chi stretched out his hand to catch Ergou and turned him over directly next to the kitten.
When he was put down, Zhang Chi was a little dumbfounded because the two dogs had no milk.
"What kind of baby are you giving birth to? Isn't this nonsense?" Zhang Chi pushed the two dogs away.
The little kitten was really hungry and had no energy left. The second dog had no milk, so Zhang Chi could only find a way. Fortunately, the goat milk powder that the second dog had eaten before seemed to be still available.
So Zhang Chi went out of the house to look for goat milk powder.
After searching for a long time and not finding it, Zhang Chi wondered if he had remembered it wrong.
This is really Zhang Chi's misremembering. He had already fed all the goat milk powder. Think about it, these two big-bellied men, Er Gou and Da Niu Er Hu, didn't drink up all the milk powder. How could they give up milk?
But now this kind of thing is a trivial matter for Zhang Chi, because the goat milk powder is gone, but Zhang Chi has sheep at home, and the ewe that has just given birth to a lamb must have milk.
Zhang Chi took the milk bottle and walked out.
Melika asked Zhang Chi: "What are you going to do?"
"Go to the cowshed to get some goat's milk. Ergou gave birth to a baby without milk, and the kitten was so hungry that it almost couldn't scream." As he said this, Zhang Chiren was already out the door.
Melika wanted to see the kitten, but the two dogs blocked the door and kept growling at Melika, so Melika had to go back and continue working.
Zhang Chi came to the stables.
"Come, come!"
Zhang Chi, smiling, walked towards the ewe.
It's a pity that the ewe doesn't care about Zhang Chi at all. Not only does it not care about Zhang Chi, it also lowers its head directly towards Zhang Chi, pretending that I want to challenge you.
"Damn it, I raised you for nothing." How could Zhang Chi tolerate this? He went up and lightly kicked the ewe on the forehead.
This time the ewe is honest.
"Splashing skin will not be fun without a beating!"
Zhang Chi cursed and prepared to pick up the milk, but the ewe was not honest and would not cooperate. Zhang Chi directly took off the rope hanging on the wall, tied the ewe to a pillar, and tied the neck of the ewe.
On the post, a lamb's leg was tied to the stable door shaft.
In this way, the ewe becomes more honest.
But the lamb came to cause trouble again, and the little guy was ready to nurse.
Zhang Chi pushed the lamb away, moved the milk bottle over and began to milk the goat.
After squeezing out almost half of the bottle, Zhang Chi closed the lid, put the goat milk bottle into his clothes, put the ewe down, and trotted back with him.
As soon as he entered the house, Zhang Chi took out the milk bottle and fed the kitten.
As soon as the kitten smelled the scent of milk, it immediately stopped meowing, raised its head and sucked milk with its belly bulging.
"You've suffered a lot as a mother because you have two dogs."
Seeing the little guy sucking milk, Zhang Chi sighed.
Zhang Chi gently stroked the kitten's head while feeding it.
The two dogs were quiet now, and they came over and licked the kitten again.
Zhang Chi looked at Ergou and said, "You guy, after a long time of trouble, you have a single seedling, and there is no milk yet!"
The kitten was really hungry. It held the bottle in its mouth and wouldn't let go until it drank all the milk in the bottle. Its belly almost turned into a ball.
As soon as Zhang Chi collected the bottle, the two dogs impatiently picked up the kitten.
"That's too much! Am I your wet nurse? After feeding you milk, you still have to feed your baby. Who do you think I am?" Zhang Chi looked at Ergou and cursed with a smile.
It was quiet now, Ergou hid the kitten again, and Zhang Chi's ears were quiet again.
When I walked back to the living room, I found that the dishes and other items had been washed.
"Thank you very much!"
Seeing Melika come in with two more big boxes, Zhang Chi smiled and was polite.
Melika said: "It's okay if you give me some money."
"No need to discuss" Zhang Chi immediately refused without any hesitation.
Melika raised her finger at Zhang Chi and tried her best to express her disdain for Zhang Chi. After finishing her disdain, she dragged her suitcase into the house.
When he closed the door, he closed it very loudly.
"Broken my door, take down your two boxes!" Zhang Chi shouted at Melika, then turned around and went back to his room.
Washed up and went to sleep.
In the middle of the night, Zhang Chi felt his ears itching.
When he opened his eyes, he found Ergou's eyes staring in front of him like gems.
Just as he was about to say something, Zhang Chi heard the sound of a kitten in his ear. He stretched out his hand and found that the kitten's belly was deflated again.
Cursing and cursing, Zhang Chi went to the cowshed to get milk again.
