Yun Xia transmigrated into the body of a pitiful orphan in the 1980s, living in a den of wolves and constantly being bullied. Since she took over this body, she naturally had to avenge its original...
Chapter 66 Yun Xia's Favoritism
Noticing that the boy's gloomy aura was even stronger than before, Yun Xia blinked and hurriedly said, "Coal Ball, black cats are evil, I'm afraid you can't control them. Why don't you get a tabby cat to bring some good luck? Look, it likes you very much."
The kitten obediently licked the back of his hand. The wet touch amazed Coal Ball. His black grape-like eyes stared intently at it, and finally, he gently hugged it in his arms.
"Brother Bai, I want to adopt this tabby cat."
"Okay, it's fine once you've made up your mind."
Bai Ye said that he was too busy with his studies and business to take care of the kitten, so he didn't have the extra energy to take care of it and therefore didn't pick and choose.
"Perfect! We can raise them together; they'll keep each other company!"
After the kittens were assigned, Yunxia taught them some cat-raising techniques, and soon the group arrived at the door.
"Young Master Bai, farewell!" He no longer wanted to sit in the crowded back row.
"This place is far from Huaimin Street, and it's windy. Are you sure?"
"That's none of your concern, Mr. Bai."
Jiang Chao didn't train the husky, indicating that he didn't want to sit there either. Yun Xia smiled faintly, found an excuse to gloss over the matter, and after watching the car leave, she nudged Jiang Chao with her elbow.
"Here you go, black cat!"
The boy took the black cat, kneading its cool triangular ears with his fingertips. "Yunxia, you're really biased." With that, he smiled slightly and strode forward in a good mood.
"Little butterfly, how are you being biased?"
When three people walk together, two of them are bound to have little secrets.
The little girl smiled mysteriously, lightly leaving behind the word 'secret,' and followed Jiang Chao with cheerful little steps.
"Hey, you two, wait for me!"
Feng Jingling, who was stunned for a moment, came to her senses when the two had already walked some distance, and she quickly jogged to catch up.
Back home, I found some cotton swabs, dipped them in some boiled water, and gently wiped away the yellow pus from the kittens' eyes. Suddenly, I could see that the two little guys were incredibly excited and were chasing after me everywhere.
"Brother, can I hold them?"
"No! They're too small and can't withstand any rough handling. Let them stay for a while before you play with them."
"Oh well!"
After cleaning the kittens, Yunxia fed them some warm goat milk. Soon, the two little ones, with their bellies full, snuggled together and fell asleep.
"One is black and the other is white, so why not name them Xiao Wu and Xiao Chang?"
With a cocky tone, he earned a sharp rebuke: "You, surnamed Feng, go play somewhere else."
"No numbness, no numbness, I want to sleep with the kitten tonight."
Yunxia: ...Husky, you're doomed!
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chao could no longer sit still. Holding up his slipper, he was about to strike hard. Feng Jingling covered her head and ran away. The chase was quite a spectacle.
"Sister Xiaxia, can't cats sleep with people?"
It's possible, but the kitten was found in a flower bed, and its body was covered in bacteria. It was also too weak and small to take a bath, so it couldn't possibly crawl into bed.
In order to prevent An'an from disliking the kitten, Yunxia had to change her words and say that the kitten was too small and that if a person rolled over while sleeping, the kitten might be crushed to death.
"Too...too dangerous, let's keep it in the box for now!"
Seeing how well-behaved he was, Yunxia patted his head, told him not to touch the kitten, and then got up and left the main room.
"Little butterfly, please save me!" Feng Jingling said anxiously, hiding behind the little girl.
"Jiang Chao, Aunt Wu is still sleeping. If we keep making noise, we'll wake her up. It's getting late. Come on, let's go to the kitchen to cook!"
With a stern face, Jiang Chao glared at the peeking boy, snorted coldly, angrily threw away his slippers, and turned to go to the kitchen.
"Little butterfly, thank goodness you're here. I'll treat you to a big meal tomorrow."
"No need. Just avoid provoking Jiang Chao in the future."
Mentioning this made Feng Jingling perk up. She pouted and said, "What exactly did I do to offend him?"
"You blockhead, go stand in the corner and reflect on your actions!"
The little girl shook her head as she walked into the kitchen, and soon the aroma of the food filled the entire yard.
When Aunt Wu woke up, dinner had just been prepared. She glanced at the two kittens snuggling together and frowned. "Keeping cats in the city is too much trouble. Ah Chao, are you sure you want to keep them?"
"Mom, we've decided that after school tomorrow, we'll go to the construction site to get some sand, goat milk, eggs, fish, and meat. We'll buy the scenery and stick the cat's fur on a cloth every day. Once the cat gets a little bigger, we'll bathe it every two weeks. That way, it'll be clean and hygienic."
Seeing that he was thoughtful, Aunt Wu nodded in agreement. From then on, the two little ones stayed at the Jiang family's house. After a quick wash, the family enjoyed dinner together.
Time, like sand, slips silently through our fingers!
Three months passed in the blink of an eye. In the sweltering summer heat, two kittens, one black and one white, hid under the wardrobe, panting heavily. No matter how Jiang An tried to coax them out, they refused to come out.
The apricot tree in the courtyard is laden with fruit; the large, plump yellow apricots exude a rich fragrance, indicating that they are ripe.
On Huaimin Street, three people licking torch-shaped ice cream bars were browsing a convenience store, picking and choosing until they filled a basket. When they paid, the shop owner couldn't stop smiling.
"I've decided, I'm not going to eat snacks all day."
Jiang Chao patted his shoulder and gave him a light punch. "Snacks can't replace meals. Do you think your stomach is too strong?"
The boy was already used to being punched. He held his head high and said arrogantly, "I haven't had a single stomachache during the months I've been in the Jiang family!"
Yunxia, who made the payment: It's all because of Lushui and my cooking skills.
"Heh, if you eat all of these, you're bound to have an attack today, and it'll hurt like hell."
"Okay, okay, stop talking. Big brother, I'm going to make cold noodles today. Are you sure you don't want some?"
The little girl's cold noodles were absolutely amazing; just thinking about them made my mouth water. Feng Jingling nodded hurriedly, afraid that if she hesitated even for a second, she wouldn't get any cold noodles.
"Little Butterfly, I'll take the things. Let's go home and have some cold noodles." With that, she strode away from the convenience store.
"Hey, you stinky Jiang Chao, you can't discipline a big dog with violence, you have to use wisdom and coax it, you know that?"
"Ha, does he really think everyone is as stupid as him?"
Wow, it seems that after several months of getting to know each other, someone's silliness has become deeply ingrained in people's minds.
Back home, Xiao Jiang'an pulled Yun Xia into the house, pointed to the bottom of the wardrobe, and looked aggrieved!
Looking down, I saw the two little guys happily licking each other's fur. "An'an, what are you doing?"
"Let them both come out and play with me."
He finally understood how it felt when Wu Lifang called him, but he stubbornly refused to come out.
"An'an, it's hot. It's cool under the cabinet. Don't worry about them. I bought a big bag of snacks. Come on, let's go eat something delicious."
Between 'playing with the cat' and 'being greedy', Jiang An decisively chose the former. He plopped down and started acting spoiled, saying he would find a stick to chase the kitten away. In the end, it was Jiang Chao who had to step in to calm him down.
"Ha! Yunxia, where's your wisdom? You still have to resort to violence to discipline a puppy."
The girl, feeling humiliated, was too angry to speak. She glared at him and then turned and went to the kitchen.
Cook the noodles until done, then drain and place them in cold water to cool.
Mix minced garlic, sesame paste, vinegar, salt, chopped chili peppers, light soy sauce, and water in a certain ratio to make a sauce.
Add vegetables, cucumber strips, crushed peanuts, carrot strips, and other side dishes, mix well, and the refreshing cold noodles are ready.
