Chapter 13:
"Oh my darling, why did you go down the mountain again?"
As soon as Old Man Chen saw the black and white dumpling entering his yard, he quickly put down the cigarette in his hand, and pretended to complain.
"Everyone, hurry up and go to the kitchen to get Gun Gun some more to eat. Didn't you buy a few bones in the morning, just to give Gun Gun a taste of it, you can see that it's edible too, and your cousin? The box of apples that I sent was just for Gun Gun to taste..." Old Man Chen quickly ordered his daughter-in-law beside him to get something.
"Got it, Dad, go into the house with the charcoal, the house is burning with charcoal, and it's getting warm!" The daughter-in-law heard her father-in-law's order without any objection, and looked at the black and white dumplings with joy, and then quickly strode to the Go to the kitchen.
Then old man Chen babbled at the black and white dumplings with satisfaction: "Okay, hurry into the house and get warm, although you have such thick fur, it will still feel cold when it's cold, I'm wearing such thick clothes now. The coat is..."
At this moment, the black-and-white dumpling who followed Old Man Chen into the room was naturally Chen Xing who had come down the mountain to find someone for help.
As the days passed, the winter of the year came again in a blink of an eye.
This winter is particularly cold. The mountain has long been covered with white snow, and even a lot of snow has accumulated on the village road. It is easy to slip and fall if you are not careful.
Pandas don't need to hibernate like brown bears. After all, they basically don't eat meat, and their staple food is still bamboo, which can be seen everywhere. Therefore, even now, Chen Xing is still active all day long.
However, it is precisely because of the arrival of winter that the food on the mountain is not as abundant as in other seasons, and even the amount and taste of the staple food bamboo are greatly reduced.
Chen Xing and Niuniu spend a lot of time finding and eating food every day.
It just so happens that the villagers at the foot of the mountain are very fond of the national treasure panda, not only will they not drive them away, but they will also welcome pandas to their homes.
When Chen Xing went down the mountain to find him for the first time, because he was in a hurry to pull people over to find out the condition of the injured panda, he called the police and the forestry bureau for help, so he didn't have time or opportunity to get along with humans at all. Did not enjoy some of the hospitality of the villagers.
It just so happened that Chen Xing took the initiative to go down the mountain again, and it could be said that he was able to enjoy something that he didn't enjoy the first time.
Chen Xing obediently followed Old Man Chen into the house. The room was just a very ordinary living room. The TV was on, playing a domestic drama with mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Old Man Chen's wife was watching it with relish.
There was a hot charcoal pot next to the coffee table. The closer it was, the higher the heat. Attractingly, a dog and two cats in the family gathered around the charcoal pot to keep warm, and they fell asleep.
When the old lady saw her old man entering the house, there was a black and white dumpling behind her, her attention was immediately shifted from the TV series to Chen Xing, her face raised a smile, revealing a gold tooth inlaid, "Yo, it turned out to be a panda. Come on, this is the one from last time, right?"
The old man nodded proudly, "That's not it! I think this panda just likes our house and has his eyes on our house, otherwise why would he come to our house every time?"
The old lady echoed the old man Chen: "Yes, yes, Human Panda is not just here for you!"
"Then let's get some more food for the panda to taste, otherwise it's useless to eat bamboo on the mountain as an adult, and the mountain is full of snow now, so I'm afraid there won't be enough bamboo for it!" The old lady was a little worried about Chen Xing's food. Directly ignore the fact that Chen Xing is not thin at all, on the contrary, he is a little longer.
"Hmph, didn't you just tell the old folks to go to the kitchen to get some things!" The old man sat beside the old lady and cooked together, "Come on, little guy, come and cook together!"
Chen Xing took his eyes off the TV and sat beside the charcoal basin, just beside the dozing cats and dogs.
Feeling the movement beside him, the sleepy dog glanced to the side with its head bit by bit, but the sight shocked it immediately, only to see it jumped up from the ground immediately and barked several times with its tail tucked. Voice.
"Wang Wang Wang!"
The dog's barking soon woke up the two cats on the side. As soon as they opened their eyes, they immediately saw Chen Xing, a black and white strange creature, even bigger than the rhubarb at home. It was so annoying, they were immediately covered in fur, hunched over, and jumped to the feet of the old lady, staring vigilantly at Chen Xing not far away.
The performance of two cats and one dog immediately made old man Chen and the old lady laugh.
"You guys are so brave!"
"Da Huang, stop barking, the pandas are our guests! Besides, I'm afraid the three of you won't be able to beat them, and it's useless to bark, they are still national treasures!" Old man Chen began to appease the family's dog after laughing. and two cats.
Being stared at so vigilantly by the dog and the two cats, Chen Xing felt a little wronged and innocent. He didn't feel threatened by himself, and he didn't intend to bully them at all. On the contrary, he just tried to lick them, but it's a pity He jumped away without even a single dog or cat hair being touched.
After Old Man Chen's comfort, the dog no longer barked at Chen Xing, and the fried fur on the two cats gradually gathered, but the three were still full of vigilance towards Chen Xing.
If it weren't for the warm charcoal basin in the living room to keep warm, the two cats would have been scared away by now.
Ignoring this, Chen Xing grilled around the charcoal pot for a while, and then called out to old man Chen a few times, as if urging.
When old man Chen saw Chen Xing's eager expression at the moment, he immediately understood, and quickly took a tablet from the cabinet that the children had bought for their second elder. He put on special reading glasses and nodded solemnly on the tablet.
It took nearly a minute for Old Man Chen to find the video he was looking for. He pointed the display side of the tablet towards Chen Xing, and clicked on the video to play.
Chen Xing watched the video carefully.
A video related to pandas was playing on the tablet, and Chen Xing introduced to Chen Xing: "Don't worry, your injured companion last time is living a good life in the hospital of the protection base, and the injury is also fast. It's all good, eat and drink well all day long, can't it be faster?"
"Look at this video, is it a little fatter now? It's stronger than when it was injured last time, right?"
"If this is in the past ten years, your companion will probably stay at the base forever. The state has arranged for him to have a wife and let him have a child!"
"That is to say, the policy has changed a bit in recent years. Seeing that you are wild, you will not have to be kept in captivity. I am afraid that your companion will be sent back to release in a short time. At that time, you will not have to live forever. Run down the mountain and come to me to see how it's doing!"
Old Man Chen rambled as soon as he started talking, but Chen Xing didn't find him annoying.
Because of guilt in his heart, Chen Xing kept thinking about the injured panda, and finally came up with an idea, that is, run down the mountain to find out the situation of each other through these villagers.
It happened that the old man Chen was looking for when he asked for help last time, so Chen Xing ran to the Chen family at the end of the village as soon as he got off the mountain, which surprised the Chen family again.
Later, old man Chen was also a smart person. The last time he guessed that Chen Xing was very spiritual, and he still remembered the injured companion. This time, when he saw Chen Xing coming down the mountain to find their home, he would give it to Chen Xing as soon as he had an idea. Talking about the recent situation of the injured panda.
As Xiao Jun had guessed at the beginning, the wild giant panda broke into the villager's house to ask for help from humans, and finally the local rescue of an injured wild giant panda was quickly reported on TV.
The villagers, especially the Chen family, are also quite concerned about the injured giant panda that they collectively helped. From time to time, they let their children go online to find follow-up news, and they learned that the other party had been sent to a base dedicated to protecting giant pandas. The rescue of the injured panda went well afterward, and the recovery of the injured panda was also smooth.
Chen Xing learned about the specific situation of the injured panda through the report of the Chen family. Hearing that the other party was recovering well and that his life was not in danger, he was relieved, and the guilt in his heart did not deepen. .
After that, Chen Xing occasionally went down the mountain to Chen's house, eating and drinking, while inquiring about the status of the injured panda, killing two birds with one stone, and living a comfortable life.
The video finished playing soon, and Old Man Chen could be regarded as the end of his chatter, so he carefully put away the tablet.
At this moment, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Chen family also returned to the living room with an enamel plate.
Chen Xing's attention immediately turned to the enamel plate held by the Chen family's eldest daughter-in-law.
Noticing Chen Xing's eager eyes, the eldest daughter-in-law, who was once born and matured twice, smiled more and more brightly, put the enamel plate on the coffee table, and took a big watery apple inside and handed it to Chen Xing, who was roasting by the fire, "Nuo , this is an apple of the Red X Shi brand, but it is sweet, you are not very picky at first, you must like it!"
Because of Chen Xing's arrival, the Chen family has been paying close attention to giant pandas recently, so they also found panda recipes on the Internet.
Some things are even reluctant to eat in the family, but they have to be left to Chen Xing to taste!
Chen Xing unceremoniously stretched out his claws to take the big apple, opened his mouth and took a bite. It was crunchy, full of juice, and just the right degree of sweetness. It was not dull and astringent at all. Said Red X...
Seeing that Chen Xing was eating so deliciously, the three people present happily watched him eat bite after bite, watching the live eating and broadcasting of giant pandas, and they didn't feel tired at all.
Chen Xing ate the big apple with just a few mouthfuls and threw the core into the trash can under the coffee table, which immediately attracted the praise of old man Chen.
"It's awesome, you even know how to throw garbage in the trash can. If it weren't for the world of science now, many people would believe you if you were a genius!"
When old man Chen praised, it was as if Chen Xing was his own grandson, and he could find reasons to praise him anywhere.
Immediately afterwards, the Chen family's daughter-in-law took out a washed carrot from the enamel plate and handed it to Chen Xing.
Carrots have a different taste. It is obviously a food that I didn't like in my previous life, but in this life, I replaced it with the appetite of giant pandas, but Chen Xing accepted it without resistance. .
There are still many good things in the enamel plate. The eldest daughter-in-law feeds Chen Xing one by one. She puts down her work early, and she can't tell that she is in other places. She only concentrates on being surrounded by her in-laws. Chen Xing wandered around.
