"Xiao Jin, quickly get Grandma Qiu's shoes." Grandma Fang shouted hurriedly.
"Oh." Fang Jianjin hurried into the house to get his shoes, then washed his hands and went to pour water for the old lady. "Grandma Qiu, I poured you some warm water. Please take a look."
"Thank you." Grandma Qiu smiled and turned her head, holding Grandma Fang's hand. "Your little Jin is really sensible."
Fang's mother also came out to say hello, and then called Fang Jianjin to the kitchen to help her pick vegetables.
"You kid, just pick the vegetables. Why are you always looking outside?" Mother Fang couldn't help but say.
"Mom, did you guess that someone would come to visit grandma, so you bought so many vegetables?"
"Do we even need to guess? When your grandma was in the hospital, your dad and I didn't tell anyone, but how could we keep such a serious matter as her illness and hospitalization a secret? In the next few days, your cousins and their relatives will surely come to visit one after another. It's definitely a good idea to prepare some extra food at home so that we won't be caught off guard when the time comes."
"Mom, you are so awesome." Fang Jianjin couldn't help but praise.
"What's so great about that? Your dad is the same, he didn't even discuss it with me. But your sister Qing will take the college entrance examination in two days. If there are too many relatives at home, it will disturb her rest. Forget it, I won't say anything more." Mother Fang shook her head.
Fang Jianjin pursed her lips, knowing what her mother was worried about, and immediately said, "Isn't it still possible for me to help you?"
"What can you do to help me?" Fang's mother said with disdain, but when she thought about how sensible her daughter was, she sighed.
Even her daughter could see it, and she couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved. She couldn't help but say, "Actually, I'm not afraid of hard work or fatigue. It's just that your father acted first and asked for your permission later, making it seem like I don't understand him and am petty. I'm a little bothered by this."
"Then just tell dad directly. Husband and wife need to communicate. If you are embarrassed to say it, don't you still have me as your little cotton-padded jacket?" Fang Jianjin immediately recommended himself.
"You? You're just a piece of cloth at best. The cotton wick hasn't even been installed yet!"
"Mom, how could you say that about your own daughter?"
Fang's mother laughed to herself and reached out to slap Fang Jianjin's hand away. "Don't you dare say anything? Look at you. You've got to tear off the skin of the pumpkin tip, and even the tentacles. What the hell are you picking?"
"I eat pumpkin, not the tip of the leaf." Fang Jianjin pouted, but still followed and learned obediently.
When everything in the kitchen was almost done, Grandma Qiu said she wanted to leave, and Grandma Fang naturally invited her to stay for lunch.
The two old men hadn't seen each other for a long time, so naturally they held hands and continued chatting.
The two old classmates, who were in their eighties, were simply lamenting the impermanence of life and how one of their classmates had passed away. After chatting about these things, they naturally talked about their children.
When Fang Jianjin heard Grandma Qiu talking about her eldest grandson and the dog, she immediately sat down next to her grandmother and listened attentively.
Only then did we know that after Shi Tou went missing last week, Grandma Qiu's granddaughter was very sad. In order to comfort her daughter, her youngest son and daughter-in-law immediately went to the pet hospital and bought a little Teddy, and they did not tell the eldest grandson Chen Xiaolong about this.
"I have my eldest grandson on one side and my youngest granddaughter on the other. I was in a dilemma. Fortunately, the dog was found later, and it is easier to raise two dogs together. But I didn't expect that the older one ran away again last night." Grandma Qiu couldn't help sighing, with a worried look on her face.
"Grandma Qiu, how did Shi Tou suddenly run away?" Fang Jianjin couldn't help but ask. After all, Chen Xiaolong couldn't explain it clearly.
"As soon as the door was opened, the big one sneaked out." Grandma Qiu lowered her eyes, her gaze a little evasive.
Fang Jianjin frowned.
They lived in the same complex, and there was a gated entrance downstairs. If the dog had really escaped through the crack in the door, there would have been a good chance of finding it if they had searched for it immediately. But Shitou had disappeared again, so...
Fang Jianjin suddenly wondered whether this family had ever looked for him.
Moreover, last week Chen Xiaolong suddenly sent her a WeChat message to inquire about adoption. He was probably angry because he learned that his uncle's family had already bought another dog.
She sighed immediately and didn't know what to say.
After lunch at noon, she finally had the chance to go to the pet hospital and talk about this with Jian Xiu.
"People's luck won't always be good. I'm really afraid that I won't be able to find the stone this time." She was a little pessimistic.
"Don't be discouraged. We've been walking the dog around a lot lately." Jian Xiu comforted her.
Fang Jianjin thought about the fact that dogs had to be walked several times a day in the pet hospital, so she immediately cheered up and repeated the characteristics of the stone to everyone.
"Yes, Madam Boss!" Liu Shengyi immediately shouted jokingly.
"What are you shouting about?" Fang Jianjin's face turned slightly red, then she rolled her eyes at him and walked away.
In the next few days, everyone tried hard to find the dog, but there was no news about Shi Tou at all.
Fang Jianjin also learned from her communication with Chen Xiaolong that when his uncle went out to take out the trash that day, Shitou followed him out, and no one in the family noticed. This can only mean that after the family got the puppy, they no longer cared about the big dog, which led to no one noticing that the big dog was missing.
He now particularly regrets that he did not insist on giving the dog up for adoption because of his relatives' feelings, or perhaps he should have insisted on raising the dog himself.
"Jian Xiu, do you think that after getting married, we have to abandon our dog in order to prepare for pregnancy?" She sighed and couldn't help asking when she thought of Chen Xiaolong's family situation.
We have seen too many examples like this. The owners are suffering and the dogs are not treated well. It can be said to be very sad.
"Do you know why my cousin didn't continue to run the pet hospital?" Jian Xiu suddenly asked.
"Why?"
"Because she wants to get pregnant."
"Ah?" Fang Jianjin was stunned. "But, but..."
"We all know that this has no impact, but the elders don't think so, and most of us can't convince the elders, so..." Jian Xiu's tone was quite helpless.
"I do often give my parents warnings, but if they ask me to send Diandian away, I won't do it." Fang Jianjin puffed up his cheeks, looking very angry.
Then she thought of something and couldn't help asking, "By the way, doesn't Sister Lin have a cat? What about her cat?"
"The cat was fostered at a good friend's house. She had several arguments with her family about this matter, and finally sent the cat away."
"No wonder she looked so bad last time. So this is what happened..."
Thinking that Lin Qingxue was a person who loved small animals so much and was also a pet doctor, but she couldn't convince her family and had to send her cat away, Fang Jianjin immediately felt extremely distressed for her.
This is equivalent to severing the connection between her and her pet.
"No, I must give my parents more scientific knowledge!" she said immediately.
"No rush." Who knew Jian Xiu would say this.
"Why?"
"Marriage is a long way off, and pregnancy preparations are on the back burner."
"Get married?" Fang Jianjin looked at him and was suddenly stuck.
