Extra: Memoirs of Wangcai in His Old Age
My name is Wangcai. This is the eleventh year that I have been with Cui Qingyi, so should I be thirteen or fourteen years old this year?
It's been so long that I can't remember clearly, but there doesn't seem to be any need to remember too clearly the days before I met her.
The least noticeable of all the little animals in the Cui family is the kitten Lai Fu. It is usually elusive and often finds a place to stay after eating, and you won't see it for the whole day.
Wangcai was the last family member to see it before it disappeared.
It was an ordinary summer afternoon. Lai Fu woke up from a nap on the osmanthus tree. He sat on the tree for a while, then slowly walked to the main room with the elegant steps of a cat. He stayed in Cui Qingyi's arms for a while. Even the human cubs that he had never liked before made an exception and got close to him.
Of course, this did not last long. After finally biting Wangcai's still thick ears, the old cat Lai Fu swung his tail and ran out of the yard. He never returned home.
Wangcai knew where it went. In fact, it went out to see Lai Fu on the night he left home. Since then, Wangcai was very depressed for a few days. Later, he thought about it and felt that there was nothing to be sad about. After all, both it and Lai Fu had a long lifespan among cats and dogs.
And it is nearing the end of its life.
As he got older, Wangcai, who used to rely on his thick fur to ignore the winter wind and snow, had to compromise and move into the greenhouse that Cui Qingyi built specially for him.
This greenhouse is made of colored glaze shipped from the south, and it is very beautiful with colorful lights under the sunlight during the day. Wangcai lies on the thick mat and enjoys the grooming service of his little masters, with his big head resting on Cui Qingyi's legs, feeling her gentle caress.
The rich aroma that once attracted it to break free from the rope and come closer was still the same, lingering faintly on the nose mixed with the warm afternoon sunshine, reminding Wangcai, whose memory was not very good, of the scene of their first meeting.
The mule market had a mixed smell, and Wangcai was extremely unhappy because one of his hind legs was broken. Although he could not understand human conversations, he was very sensitive to the malice released by humans. But even in the face of life threats, Wangcai did not regret suddenly attacking and biting his original owner.
It cannot bear to bite its own kind day and night for human entertainment. In its eyes, humans are very bad and cruel people.
But from the moment he made eye contact with the girl across the horse's legs in the mule market, and then when he later dragged his broken leg all the way to Cui's house, Wangcai felt that it was fate and that he and she were meant to be a family.
In the process of getting along with Cui Qingyi Konjac, the warlike Wangcai gradually understood the meaning of mutual dependence. He knew very well that the young biped in front of him was actually very weak, but fortunately he, Wangcai, was strong enough to protect her from harm.
Wangcai accompanied Cui Qingyi from the courtyard of Huaihua Lane to the village chief's mansion and watched her get married. He even noticed the little life in her belly before Cui Qingyi did. During that time, Wangcai always stayed by Cui Qingyi's side. For the first time, he thought she was too careless and didn't even know she was pregnant. But it didn't matter, Wangcai would protect them.
During that period, Wangcai was not only worried about the increasingly haggard Cui Qingyi, but also thinking about what gifts to prepare for the unborn little ones. Yes, you heard it right, Wangcai is such a smart and reliable dog, and he is the only dog who would think of preparing gifts for his babies.
Although her baby was not very obedient and caused her a lot of suffering, it didn't matter. Once her baby was born, they would have no time to bother her with her baby by their side.
In this way, Wangcai gave birth to two puppies before Cui Qingyi. The puppies were left at the mansion to be raised with the newborn babies. Even their biological father, Black Wolf, could only smell a little scent of the babies from Wangcai when he saw him.
Fortunately, the big wolf and the little wolf did not disappoint their mother's expectations. When the children were two years old, they had become very stable big dogs. They inherited their mother's loyalty and bravery, and inherited their father's ferocity and height. When they were guarding the babies, no one with malicious intentions dared to approach them.
Ah, days like this are really happy.
When his teeth began to be unable to tear his favorite roast duck, Wangcai thought of his first litter of children after a long time, especially Shufeng. He wondered where Shufeng was now and whether he was doing well.
A dog’s longing is different from that of a human. It doesn’t seem to matter whether they see each other or not.
But Wangcai was still happy when she saw her long-lost child. She licked its fur and allowed it to rely on her, its old mother, for a long time when she felt its uneasiness.
Ah, this kind of dog life is actually really good.
There were signs of Wangcai's death. He began to sleep for a long time, and when he woke up occasionally, he was not even interested in his favorite roast duck.
But Cui Qingyi held it, so it always looked very happy. Because the biped always talked in its ear, Wangcai gave up the idea of leaving home like the old cat Lai Fu.
In this way, the old friend who had been Cui Qingyi's guardian angel for a lifetime passed away peacefully in the company of everyone.
After Wangcai died, Cui Qingyi buried him halfway up the east mountain behind the mansion. Just by looking up, one could have a panoramic view of the entire Cui mansion.
