Chapter 746: Mantou catches a thief. It is a dark and windy night, which is a good time for some thieves to act on the roof.
A dark figure sneaked over the wall in the backyard of Xinweiju, and landed lightly without making much noise.
He crouched down, looking at the yard full of food and sundries in the moonlight, his eyes flashing with greed, thinking about what to steal.
Apparently, he didn't take the huge figure lying in the corner seriously.
After all, this white dog always looks lazy, and apart from being a little big, it doesn't seem to pose any threat.
I even sneered in my heart, thinking that the restaurant owner was really generous to hire such a big and stupid guy to guard the door.
In fact, the moment Mantou climbed onto the wall, his ears moved slightly.
When he turned over in, Mantou had already stood up silently, his muscles tense, and his eyes, glowing dimly in the night, were firmly fixed on this uninvited guest.
It didn't bark immediately, that was a low-level warning. Uncle Mantou focused on defeating the enemy with one blow.
The thief crept forward and was about to reach the door of the shed where the dry goods were stored.
Just as he was secretly delighted and about to succeed, a gust of evil wind suddenly hit him from behind!
Before he could react, he felt a sharp pain on his buttocks, which almost made him jump up.
“Ahhhh!!!”
A shrill scream, as piercing as a human could make, instantly shattered the tranquility of the night.
Mantou bit the other person's pants tightly... well, including the soft flesh inside, and his huge head shook to the left and right.
The thief grimaced in pain, tears almost streaming down his face. The tool in his hand fell to the ground with a clang, and he was dragged by the bun, staggering. He tried to break free, but the dog's mouth seemed to be welded to his butt.
"Let go, let go, you damn dog!" The thief cried out in shock and pain, slapping his hands back randomly, but he was unable to reach Mantou's flexible body.
The noise here immediately alarmed Liu Dong and Ma Hongxia in the hut in the backyard.
Liu Dong was the first to rush out, wearing his clothes and holding a door bolt in his hand. Ma Hongxia followed closely behind him and turned on the lights in the yard.
The lights came on, and the scene before them made the couple stunned for a second, and then they almost laughed out loud.
I saw the majestic Mantou "hanging" himself on the buttocks of a strange man.
The man was in a funny posture, half bent over, one hand covering his body that might have been bitten and hurt, the other hand waving in the air in vain, crying out "ouch, ouch".
Mantou growled threateningly, but his tail twitched slightly in triumph.
Liu Dong suppressed his laughter, stepped forward and shouted, "What are you doing?"
The thief was so frightened when he saw someone coming that he begged for mercy:
"Brother, brother, I was wrong. Please let this dog go. I was just confused for a moment and didn't take anything!"
Ma Hongxia suppressed her laughter and stepped forward to pat Mantou's head: "Mantou, it's alright, it's alright, let go, the person has run away."
Mantou finally opened his mouth with a sense of unfulfilled desire, but he still stood between the thief and the gate, staring at him with a fierce look, the low growl in his throat continuing.
In the end, the thief, who had a successful career and may have suffered a deep psychological trauma from the hip injury, was taken away by the street security guard.
Before leaving, he still felt a lingering fear and glanced back at Mantou who was squatting at the door.
After this battle, Mantou’s reputation of “defeating the enemy with one move and focusing on the lower road” spread throughout Xinweiju and even the entire street.
After Lu Qingyang learned about this, he smiled and rewarded Mantou with a large bone with meat on it. He rubbed Mantou's head and praised him, "Well done, Comrade Mantou. It seems that our security investment is very cost-effective."
As for Mantou, he calmly gnawed on the bone, keeping his achievements and fame to himself.
Ever since Mantou had done something great, his status in the backyard had risen sharply, from being a "gatekeeper" to being "Master Mantou".
However, this "master" has a big ego and a bad temper.
When it comes to people, it still has that majestic and awe-inspiring attitude. It sits at the door with a look of disdain, as if to say: "I opened this mountain and planted this tree."
But once it's someone it knows, even if it's just Mr. Wang who often comes to deliver groceries, its tail wagging can create a small breeze, and its sturdy body will move closer, rubbing the person's legs gently with its big head, and making a satisfied purring sound in its throat.
He especially likes people in the store because they give him delicious food.
That afternoon, the sun was shining brightly. Mantou was lying in the middle of the backyard with his limbs spread out, his belly exposed to the sun. He was sleeping with his legs spread out, looking completely undignified.
Ma Hongxia and Liu Dong were picking vegetables and watching it happily.
"Look at our Mantou's figure and appearance, he becomes more and more handsome the more you look at him." Ma Hongxia praised.
Liu Dong nodded, thoughtfully: "Yes, if this is bred to produce a litter of puppies, they will definitely be very good, and each one will be a good guard at home."
These words seemed to turn on a switch. Xiaohua, who was counting the accounts next to her, looked up with sparkling eyes. "Yes! It would be great if I could have a smart and gentle puppy like Mantou to accompany me."
Even the usually serious Master Chen came over with a teacup in hand, looked at Mantou's muscular physique, and said slowly, "Well, it's a good material. After this, it will definitely be worse. If I really have a puppy by then, I have to reserve one first."
When Master Chen and Lu Qingyang mentioned this matter, he could only laugh it off.
How dare I let Mantou go out for breeding?
Xiao Huihui is still in the space with a group of wolf puppies.
Wolves are monogamous. If they knew that Mantou was breeding randomly outside, the consequences would be unimaginable.
…
Lu Qingyang tried to make wine from the wild grapes that grew wildly in the space. He sealed them in several small jars and hid them in the corner of the space. He almost forgot about them.
I didn't think of this until I was sorting it out a few days ago.
놛 Carefully opened a jar, and a mellow aroma of wine with wild fruity fragrance instantly spread out, making people feel comfortable just by smelling it.
I first scooped a small pot and brought it to the store for Master Chen to taste.
Master Chen was a gourmet who knew a lot about wine. He first leaned in and took a deep sip, his eyes narrowed. Then he carefully took a sip, savoring it in his mouth for a long while. Then he slapped his thigh suddenly, his face full of amazement:
"Qingyang, this wine of yours... this aroma, this aftertaste, it's long-lasting and sweet, with a distinct floral and fruity aroma. It's even worse than those brand-name goods I've seen at the supply and marketing cooperative. You, kid, even learned how to make wine without a teacher?"
With such high praise from Master Chen, Lu Qingyang felt relieved.
When I got home in the evening, I brought back another small bottle and gave it to Ding Panyun and Zhongwen to try.
Ding Panyun took a sip, savoring the feeling of the wine sliding down her throat. She nodded and gave a very honest evaluation: "This wine is strong, soft on the palate, with a hint of sweet fruit. It feels very nourishing and blood-boosting. It's suitable for us women to drink a small cup at night to warm our bodies and sleep soundly."
The old man had a different reaction.
He picked up the cup, took a big sip with great generosity, smacked his lips, savored the unique aroma and sweetness, but frowned slightly.
"Hmm, the taste is quite unique, very fragrant, but...is the alcohol content a little too low? It tastes like a sweet drink, and it's quite strong! Anyway, it's okay to drink it as a snack."
Having said that, he didn't put down the cup in his hand, and unconsciously took a few more sips.
Lu Qingyang found it funny. It seemed that this wine had hit the mark unexpectedly and had caught the fancy of the same crowd.
But unexpectedly, the old man said he disliked it, but his actions were very honest.
Not two months later, while Lu Qingyang was away at home, the old man quietly took out a small jar, put it in his arms like a treasure, and strolled off to attend a weekend gathering with his old comrades.
