four and a half year old farm family pet

Chapter 964 Years Ago
Ever since I told my family that someone was coming from the capital, I kept waiting and waiting, but no one came.

Gradually more than a month passed, and the Jin family was simply in ruins.

"It's true that the people here in Beijing can kill without giving an accurate time, which makes us anxious for a long time." Miao said, covering her palpitating chest.

Jin Zhong smoked a hookah and said, "Come if you come. If you don't come, don't come. Our family doesn't need to be so nervous. Just go and do what you have to do. It's a good time if you don't come. The Chinese New Year is not far away. Who doesn't have some?" The thing is, if it comes at this juncture, we won't have time to entertain people. If we neglect the people in the capital, our family will suffer a loss."

After thinking about these things, the Jin family simply put it aside and started busy with New Year matters.

In addition to cleaning and unpacking and washing bedding, what was even more tiring was buying new year gifts. The five daughters-in-law of the Jin family got together to discuss what gifts to give to people they knew.

Their Jin family is unusual now. They have a princess and two boys in the army. Their business is not big or small, and there are many people who are familiar with each other. This gift is expensive, and the friendship is deep. This gift is too light, but it will make people laugh at you and criticize you behind your back, so you have to be more careful.

Yuan Bao is also very busy. This year is colder than previous years. She can't put so many grapes in the restaurant warehouse to avoid freezing them into ice grapes.

I can only run around every day to replenish the supply of the restaurant. Fortunately, this stuff is rare. Even if the supply is suddenly cut off for a day or two, the diners will not feel anything. They will just wait for the new vineyard in Taozhuang to be built next year. Once harvested, there will be a steady supply.

Since the 25th of the twelfth lunar month, Yuanbao has been living in the city. He sent people to move a lot of grapes and put them at the door of Renjianzhao, so as to add some fruit to people's New Year's dinner table.

Nowadays, it is bone-chillingly cold, and there are already very few fruits and vegetables in winter, not to mention exotic treasures like grapes.

No one is allowed to entertain guests during the Chinese New Year. Treating them with a big meal of fish or meat would seem petty, so it would be better to add a bunch of grapes to the dinner table.

Moreover, the dishes and fruits in the human world are not particularly expensive. A bunch of grapes sold by the pound only costs less than [-] to [-] yuan, and the price is still high!
During the Chinese New Year, everyone wants to live a more comfortable life, especially those wealthy people who don’t care about the seven or eight hundred coins. They are willing to buy a box and take it back to entertain guests. No, in the past few days as the New Year is approaching, Yuanbao has to go to the human world at least one day. It took four replenishments to barely keep up with the needs of the people.

On the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, Jin Xibao and his brothers were on holiday from the school. Early in the morning, Yuanbao drove his carriage to wait at the door of the school.

As soon as they saw the five Jin Xibao people coming out, they immediately waved to them to get in the car. The brother and sister huddled together, warming themselves by the stove in the car, talking and laughing along the way without stopping.

"Grandma, I've brought my brother back! Look, what I brought back." As soon as he arrived at the door of the house, Yuan Bao ran in from the outside with a face full of joy. He knew at a glance that he had something good to share with his family.

Miao looked into her arms and said, "Cat?"

"Yeah, grandma, on the way back, my brother and I saw this litter of little cats. Their mothers were not around. They were very pitiful. Can I keep them at home? I promise, I will take good care of them!"

Yuan Bao swore to the sky that she didn't expect to pick up a litter of cats on the way back. There were more than a dozen cats at home, and she didn't know if her grandma would agree to let her keep this litter of cats.

Miao was originally reluctant because there were too many cats at home, but thinking that Yuan Bao liked cats so much, she simply nodded.

"Still the old rules, you can only let them move around in your house, so as not to run out and be caught and eaten by scoundrels. Besides, they are dirty. During this period, you have to use a cage to separate them from other cats. Can you Can you do it?”

"can!"

Yuan Bao was overjoyed. No need for grandma to tell her, she would do the same thing. Firstly, she wanted to give the little cats a safe environment. Secondly, she was worried that there were unknown unknown diseases hidden in them that could be transmitted to other cats. How long would they have to be locked up? The weather is familiar, so she can just bring it into the space to take a bath when the time comes.

Mrs. Miao was quite open-minded. Seeing that her granddaughter had listened to her words, she said, "Okay, I'll find a cage for you. You put the cat away first, and then wash your hands and eat with your brother and the others. The pot is still warm."

"Yeah, thank you grandma."

Yuanbaopipianpidian put a litter of five kittens into a cage and covered them with a piece of cotton cloth to keep them safe and warm. Then he went out to wash his hands and picked up the food to eat with his brothers.

While eating, Yuan Bao suddenly thought of something. He quickly walked over to Miao with a bowl in hand, squatted down, and whispered:
"Grandma, I heard something in the city today..."
