No. 27 Melon
quiet……
The courtyard suddenly became extremely quiet.
You can even hear the sound of leaves falling in the wind around you.
No one expected that this would be a tasty melon!
The point is, they are both grown up, how can this be such childish behavior? Is it childish?
Zhu Mingzhi and Bao Wenhan did not get a seat to watch the show, and they had no idea about it. They didn't even notice the strange looks from the other guests, and continued to stare at each other.
— in the fight for the last cookie on the plate.
Everyone: “…”
It’s better to stay away from them!
Don’t stay with the mentally retarded, your IQ will drop!
After a short break, the program team saw that the time was almost up and prepared to announce the variety show tasks.
Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door in the yard. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw the old lady from the next-door neighbor's house knocking on the door.
"Hey! Grandma Xia, why are you here?"
Liu Mingqian immediately went up and supported Grandma Xia.
Grandma Xia was leaning on a cane, her silver hair had already turned white. Although she was old, her steps were still steady and she was in good health.
"Xiao Liu! Do you like the fruit wine we had last time?" Grandma Xia asked with a smile.
"Of course the fruit wine you brew is the best!" Liu Mingqian praised generously. "I'm so sorry to keep accepting your fruit wine. We have some milk sent by the brand. I'll send it to you later!"
"No, no," Grandma Xia waved her hand. "I'm the only one home, and I haven't finished the two cartons of milk you gave me last week! I came here because you've got a lot of people on your show, so I wanted to ask you for a favor."
Liu Mingqian: "If you have any questions, please tell us. We will definitely help if we can."
Grandma Xia thought for a moment and then said bluntly, "It's like this... Our calico cat gave birth to a litter of kittens half a month ago. I was so happy about it, but when I woke up today, I found that all the kittens were gone!"
Grandma Xia looked worried and sighed, "Those are all premature kittens. They wouldn't survive if left outside. I see there are so many of you, so I wanted to ask you to keep an eye on them for me when you have time."
When Grandma Xia said this, the calico cat lay on the banyan tree beside the yard, with its tail hanging down and swaying back and forth, looking carefree and not at all nervous about losing its child.
"If it's a premature kitten, it hasn't been weaned yet, right? Doesn't the mother cat breastfeed it?" Zhou Zexu asked.
"Of course he did!" said Grandma Xia. "I tried to follow him, but I couldn't! I was quickly left behind!"
Cats are very agile and certainly not something an elderly person can catch up with.
"In that case..." Lu Yanyan was eager to try, and turned to look at the director team, "Director Yu, let's change our variety show mission today to finding kittens, right? Helping the elderly in the village is so meaningful!"
"ha?"
Director Yu popped his head out from behind the monitor, looking confused. "But today's activity is to pull corn on the mountain!"
All the guests instantly looked sad.
Pulling corn, how boring!
Lin Cha directly expressed everyone's thoughts:
What's so fun about pulling corn? People don't like that! It's better to find a cat! They're so cute and furry!
Liu Mingqian struck while the iron was hot, "We are neighbors with Grandma Xia, shouldn't we help her find the kitten? This is neighborly help!"
Chen Xianzhi: "Caring for small animals! Protecting small animals! This also reflects the positive energy of our program team!"
Upon hearing this, all the guests nodded rapidly.
"Go Zhao Kitty! Kittens are so cute!"
"Director Yu, you are so kind, how could you bear to let this little kitten wander around like this!"
"If you don't look for the cat, I'll deduct the balance from your payment!"
Director Yu: “…”
A huge question mark popped up in Yu Chengyi's head.
Aren't they just a casual, rural variety show? Why did it suddenly become a cute pet variety show?
Moreover, this scene in front of me...why does it seem a bit familiar!
Finally, Director Yu agreed that the program team's task for the day was to help Grandma Xia find the missing kitten.
——It’s not that he was persuaded, but that Lu Yanyan, the father of the client, wanted to withhold the balance.
Lu Yanyan not only got Director Yu to agree to change the variety show task, but also said that a brand was recently looking for a guest to endorse the program, but no guest had been decided yet. This task was just the right opportunity to use this task as a prize. If a guest who was a kitten was found, he could become the brand spokesperson and shoot gg!
Suddenly, everyone became more interested.
[Hahaha! I have to say, the show has really gotten a lot more exciting since Missy came along!]
Director Yu's only rewards are: food, food, food... Missy's rewards are: a million-dollar red envelope, brand endorsement resources! Double the happiness!
[I feel like everyone has become more motivated and excited!]
[What nonsense! Our guests are looking for cats to promote neighborhood harmony and care for animals, not for prizes! Dog head.jpg]
After the task was issued, Director Yu returned to the work area and the guests discussed how to find the cat.
After discussion, the simplest way is to catch the mother cat and hang a pet-specific GoPro around her neck. When the mother cat goes to feed the kittens, everyone can find the kittens through the camera.
However, there is no place selling GoPro in Qingchuan Village. If you go to the city to buy one, it will take two hours to drive there and back.
Another thing is that the mother cat saw so many people coming to catch her and ran away...
So, everyone decided to do both. The program crew went to the city to buy a GoPro, while the guests continued to stay in the village to look for the kitten.
Grandma Xia was very touched to see so many people helping her find a cat. "Thank you so much! I wanted to get the cat neutered a few months ago, but I forgot about it. I didn't expect it to get pregnant! I don't know which little male cat did it!"
Most of the cats in the village are not sterilized, so it is very common for female cats to get pregnant.
Not only female cats, but also female dogs in the village.
Lu Yanyan couldn't help but say, "Male animals just can't control themselves, animals and humans are the same!"
Male guest at the scene: “…”
Zhou Zexu, a pet lover who happens to have a male and a female cat at home, took the initiative to share some knowledge, "Men may not be able to control their genitals, but male cats generally can. Male cats don't go into heat on their own."
Female cats go into estrus spontaneously, but male cats do not. Male cats usually go into estrus passively after hearing a female cat's mating calls and receiving a female cat's mating signals. [Note 1]
——The implication was that it was the little female cat from Grandma Xia's house who seduced the other male cats in the village.
Lu Yanyan raised her eyes and glanced at Zhou Zexu coldly.
"Zhou Zexu, didn't anyone tell you that even if Party A is wrong, you still have to say it's right? Even if I ask you to paint me a colorful black, you can't tell me you can't do it! Otherwise, I'll deduct the balance from you!"
Zhou Zexu: "..."
He is still too young.
After finalizing the plan, the guests took the photos of kittens that Grandma Xia had taken earlier and scattered around the village to look for cats.
There are many cats in the village.
Almost all of them are Chinese rural cats, including white cats, black cats, orange cats, calico cats, tabby cats, cow cats...all kinds of cats.
Lin Cha looked at the photos taken by Grandma Xia. The kittens in the photos were just like the cats in the village, with all kinds of fur colors. It was almost impossible to guess what the cat's father looked like.
"Do you think it was the father cat who took the kitten away?" Lin Cha asked Zhou Zexu beside him curiously. Zhou Zexu was the guest who knew cats best.
"Cats generally don't take care of their kittens..." Zhou Zexu said, "But you never know."
We searched everywhere but didn't find any trace of the kittens. The main reason was that the mother cat's range of activities was too large. Cats can hide everywhere in the wild. We searched like headless flies and really couldn't find any trace of the kittens.
At this time, Zhu Mingzhi couldn't help but grumble, "If only Lin Cha could use the melon-eating system to find him..."
——Just when they were looking for the cat, Xu Zhiyan and Zhao Jinnan walked away and were out of the distance for eating melons. Zhu Mingzhi and Bao Wenhan automatically filled in. From then on, the door to a new world was opened and they understood the true meaning of this variety show.
"It's unlikely," Liu Mingqian said. "Lin Cha needs a name to locate it, but cat names are mostly just various foods, or Little Black and Little White. They're too similar, making it hard to find."
"Let's give it a try. There's nothing to lose." As he said that, Chen Xianzhi made a phone call and asked Grandma Xia the name of the cat.
Grandma Xia was excited, "Of course my children have names! I even gave them names that are especially suitable for them!"
When the guests heard the words "particularly suitable", they became discouraged.
What is a suitable name for a calico cat? Should it be "Xiao San" or "Xiao Hua"?
This is even harder to find!
Instead, Grandma Xia boasted, "One of my furry children is called Guangzong! That's the calico cat; and the other is called Yaozu! That's the big yellow dog at the door! Together, they mean Guangzong and Yaozu! Isn't that fitting?"
Guests: ???
Do you think this name is appropriate?
It feels like... the cats and dogs are carrying the burden of the whole family!
After getting such a special name, Lin Cha also had some ideas. Without waiting for Liu Mingqian to remind him, he had quietly opened the melon-eating system.
[Xia Guangzong~Xia Guangzong~Let me see where your babies are...]
Got it!
[Guang Zongsheng's kitten is at Uncle Chen's house, No. 43, Louxi, Qingchuan Village!]
The guests received the signal and walked towards No. 43, Louxi, Qingchuan Village.
To avoid being discovered by Lin Cha, everyone walked casually. But Lin Cha was also eager to find the cat, so she walked in a hurry herself.
When we arrived at Uncle Chen's house, what caught our eyes was a big black cat sitting on the stone doorstep, wagging its tail proudly at the guests.
Lin Cha opened her eyes wide: "Ah! This is the little male cat that slept with Guangzong! Guangzong gave the cat to Dahei, and Dahei hid the kitten in the cupboard!"
Grandma Xia greeted Uncle Chen, and the guests politely walked into Uncle Chen's house and pretended to look for him.
Finally, Lin Cha opened the cupboard and saw a little black cat that was not even one month old. When he compared it with the photo, they were exactly the same.
The guests were overjoyed and picked up the little black cat.
At the same time, Guangzong outside realized that his child had been discovered, so he sneaked into Uncle Chen's house and stared at the little black cat in Jiabin's hand.
It seems that the little black cat is Guangzong's child, there is no doubt about it.
but--
Lu Yanyan raised her hand and glanced at the photo. "Aren't there six cats in this photo? Why is there only one here?"
"Is it hidden somewhere else?" Zhou Zexu guessed.
"This cat really doesn't mind the trouble!" Liu Mingqian said helplessly.
Everyone looked at Lin Cha again, waiting for him to tell them the next location.
Lin Cha tilted his head, also looking puzzled:
[That's strange. The kitten isn't in the same place? Let me see!]
[Really?! There's another one hiding at Granny Wang's house at the village entrance, one at Uncle Liu's house at the bridgehead, and then there's Aunt Zhang's house, Uncle Zhou's house, Uncle Chen's old house... Guangzong actually hid the kittens in six places!]
Six places?
The guests were confused.
Isn't this cat too much trouble? One kitten per place to hide?
Soon, Lin Cha gave the answer.
Awesome!
[Each kitten has a cat dad, and each cat dad lives in a different household. No wonder there are six hiding spots!]
Guests: ???
A kitten and a cat dad?
So... Guangzong cheated on six cats at the same time?!
Everyone turned their heads and looked at Guangzong lying on the ground.
Guangzong, a calico cat, is the most beautiful cat in the world. He holds his beautiful head high, proud that he gave birth to a kitten.
The big black cat, which was originally showing off its might, meowed and rubbed its head against Guangzong, probably wanting to beg for something.
Everyone: “…”
Afterwards, the guests followed Lin Cha's instructions and came to the hiding spot one by one.
Guangzong was very proud when he met the first group of kittens and cat father.
When he met the second group, Guangzong's cheating was exposed and he looked ashamed.
When they encountered the third group, the audience in the live broadcast room were shocked. This turned out to be a cheating cat!
The fourth group...
Group 5...
The guests were numb, and the audience was numb too.
[I was waiting in the livestream studio expecting to see some gossip, but I actually got to eat a cat's gossip today!]
[Did you see the big black cat follow the guests to Granny Wang's house? When he saw there was another cat dad, he was stunned!]
[Dahei: My wife got five stray cats outside without my knowledge! Ugh! Ugh!]
Guangzong: What are you yelling about! So what if a female cat cheated on six cats at once? I gave birth to these cubs, why are you male cats talking so much nonsense?
[Guangzong: Next time, hide the cub better so you pesky two-legged beasts won’t find it! Humph!]
The last kitten is in Uncle Chen’s old house.
The old house was a dilapidated structure. Initially, the skeleton was built, but construction was halted due to land acquisition. Uncle Chen received compensation for the demolition and no longer cared about the old house.
Lin Cha opened the melon-eating system and was about to look for the kitten's specific location, when suddenly, she found something wrong.
[Huh? Why are Xu Zhiyan and Zhao Jinnan also in the old house? Did they find the kitten? But they don't seem to be looking for a cat. What are they doing here?]
Lin Cha glanced at the melon-eating system again, and suddenly she saw something, and her face turned red from her ears to her cheeks.
She looked up suddenly, her face embarrassed.
I saw nothing! I saw nothing!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!
【Why in that kind of place?】
[The description is so detailed! Doesn't the "Eating Melon" system have any censorship? This kind of car would definitely be locked up in Lujiang!!!]
[Help! I really don’t want to know all of Xu Zhiyan and Zhao Jinnan’s 180+ 180+ positions!!! I also don’t want to know how many steps they’ve taken!!!]
The guests' pupils trembled.
Is it so exciting in broad daylight?
No wonder I haven’t seen these two people for a long time. It turns out that they went somewhere else to play alone!
There is a dangerous building in the field, and it may be photographed by a passing drone at any time... Zhao Jinnan and Xu Zhiyan are having a big game!
But now, there is another key issue.
People are busy, they can't go to the old house to look for the cat, right? It's so bad to disturb other people's good things!
Besides, they may have secretly sent away the PD who was following them. What if they went over and this scene happened to be captured in the camera?
The live broadcast room will be blocked!
The guests looked extremely embarrassed, as if they were constipated.
Lin Cha pretended to be confused, turned off the melon-eating system, walked here and there, but did not go towards Uncle Chen's old house.
[Director Zhao is not young anymore, so it shouldn't take long, right?]
[I heard it’s more exciting and faster in the wild! ]
[It would be best if it was only two minutes like Jiang Mingkai, that would be great!]
Jiang Mingkai: “…”
Is this matter irreversible? Has "Jiang Mingkai" become some kind of measuring tool?
He looked up and saw Zhu Mingzhi and Bao Wenhan staring at him with shock, sympathy, and disbelief...
Very good, this matter is really unacceptable!
About ten minutes passed.
Liu Mingqian estimated that Zhao Jinnan was about old enough, so he asked everyone to walk towards Uncle Chen's old house.
Lin Cha followed at the end with his head down, not daring to open the melon-eating system, for fear of seeing something strange again.
Just as they were about to reach the old house, suddenly, a tabby cat carrying a calico cat in its mouth ran towards them.
The sixth kitten appeared!
The guests were overjoyed and excitedly picked up the kitten and put it together with the other five cats.
but--
"Why did the father cat suddenly come out with the kitten in his mouth? Did something happen in the old house?" Chen Xianzhi asked.
Grandma Xia noticed that the direction the male cat was running from was the direction of the old house, and explained, "This tabby cat is a wild cat, eating at many houses. It usually hides in Old Chen's dilapidated house, but the house was demolished these two days, so it must have been scared out of its wits."
Just as he finished speaking, a rumbling sound suddenly came from the old house!
The guests were horrified and rushed over to take a look.
I saw a huge bulldozer parked next to the old house, and it was pushing the bulldozer towards the old house!
With a loud "boom", the old house collapsed into ruins!
Everyone's eyes widened.
This this this this this this this...
Aren’t Zhao Jinnan and Xu Zhiyan in the old house?
Are you two okay?!
Lin Cha was also worried. Although he was worried about seeing something strange, he still turned on the melon-eating system.
She squinted her eyes and looked at it for a few seconds, then finally breathed a sigh of relief.
[Luckily, the workers checked the old house before starting construction and drove both the big orange cat and Director Zhao out! So even though the house collapsed, there weren't any casualties!]
All the guests breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that Zhao Jinnan and Xu Zhiyan left early, I'm glad nothing happened.
After all, everyone just likes to eat melons, but doesn't want anyone to die.
Suddenly, the guests thought of something——
The workers inspected the old house, so...
[Hahahahahaha! Director Zhao and Xu Zhiyan were both seen!]
Director Zhao was stunned. He forgot to even pull up his pants. It was Xu Zhiyan who helped him do it!
As they left, the workers were still muttering, "I thought we'd have to wait at least half an hour, but it's less than the time it takes to buy a cigarette? I've just opened my King of Glory and have to idle! City folks can't do that!"
Then Director Zhao heard it and got emo! Xu Zhiyan was right there comforting him. Three minutes was pretty good!
"Three minutes is really... great! Jinnan, don't believe what novels say about a three-hour session, it's all fake!"
"Zhiyan, are you comforting me?"
"How could that be? I'm telling the truth! My previous boyfriends only lasted two minutes!"
In the room, Zhao Jinnan was particularly emo, curled up in the corner, drawing circles and cursing those tactless workers.
It was not until Xu Zhiyan came to comfort him that he felt better and slowly raised his head.
Xu Zhiyan ruffled his hair and said, "Director Liu and the others have found all the kittens. Let's go out."
Zhao Jinnan followed Xu Zhiyan to the leisure courtyard. Lin Cha returned the six kittens he found to Grandma Xia. There were actually six male cats squatting next to them, staring at the kittens in Lin Cha's hands, reluctant to let them go.
Seeing that everyone's attention was on the cat, Zhao Jinnan breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, only Xu Zhiyan knows about his embarrassing moments, and Zhiyan will not despise him!
This wild fight was a lesson for him. He would never do such a thing again! As long as he calmed down for a few days, or even saw a psychiatrist, he would be able to regain his composure!
The next second, Zhao Jinnan heard Lin Cha's sincere voice—
[Wow! Director Zhao and Xu Zhiyan are out! It seems Xu Zhiyan has successfully comforted Director Zhao and helped him get out of the dark times in his life!]
[Ah, that's how it is. Isn't it just "I bought a Coke in three minutes, then a demolition worker saw my penis, I was shocked and my girlfriend had to help me put on my pants"? It's no big deal! Director Zhao, get ready! You can do this!]
[Oh, I forgot. Director Zhao was just frightened by the workers and couldn't stand up...]
Zhao Jinnan: “…”
How could he forget that Lin Cha had this ability!
He now regretted why he suddenly became so excited and wanted to have sex with Xu Zhiyan in the old house!
If Lin Cha knew, then the rest of the people...
Zhao Jinnan looked up suddenly and saw that all the guests looked calm, as if nothing had happened.
——But they were trying to hold back the corners of their mouths that were trying to turn up, which proved the fact that they were trying to hold back their laughter!
Zhao Jinnan cried in his heart.
Help! Dig a hole for him to crawl into!
