I awakened the cultivation panel.

Chapter 41 I have a friend...

Upon entering the house, I discovered that a kitten had crawled out.

It's fluffy and tiny, I don't even know if it's been weaned yet, but it looks very lively and cute.

Lin Guofeng was surprised: "You also keep cats?"

"Yeah. I don't know who threw it, it just happened to be right next to my orchard, so I picked it up."

Chen Jingle smiled slightly and beckoned to Changmao, who was squatting on the ground with a curious expression: "Changmao, come here."

Then Longhair, with its tail wagging, trotted to his feet and squatted down beside him.

Because he drank a lot of diluted moonlight dew and spring breeze dew, he has grown much bigger than when he was first rescued.

They're even cuter now!

"It can understand what you're saying?" Lin Guofeng was even more surprised.

Chen Jingle said with a hint of pride, "Yes, Changmao is very smart."

"What's it called? Longhair?"

"Yes, it's a long-haired orange cat."

"This name is too casual," Lin Guofeng complained, leaning forward and clapping his hands: "Long hair, come here, suckle suckle."

"..." Chen Jingle couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Only puppies suckle, this is a cat!"

"Don't worry!"

Lin Guofeng stared at the kitten with anticipation.

Long Hair glanced at Chen Jingle first, then curiously walked over to Lin Guofeng. He first briefly smelled the scent of Lin Guofeng's hands, and then grabbed them and placed them in his palm.

However, it did not struggle because it did not feel any harm.

Lin Guofeng looked at the kitten's belly with curiosity and delight: "No cat fleas, right?"

It looks quite clean.

Chen Jingle nodded: "Yes, I've had deworming done, but I haven't gotten the vaccine yet."

Actually, you don't need to get vaccinated, whether it's the feline triple vaccine for FIP and FIP or the vaccine for rabies.

For the long-haired creature that occasionally gets to drink diluted moon dew, its own immunity is strong enough that it is not so easily infected by diseases.

However, vaccines should still be given when necessary, just for peace of mind. As the owner, I have to be responsible for my cat's life and safety, and I don't need that little bit of money.

What do you usually feed them? Cat food? Or rice?

Lin Guofeng held the kitten with a satisfied expression and asked casually.

Chen Jingle replied, "Cat food and minced meat, I guess. It doesn't really like cat food, and I don't plan to buy any more after it finishes that. Cat food isn't cheap these days, it's ridiculously expensive, and it doesn't taste good either. I'd rather just buy chicken breast, cook it, and feed it to it with some corn and carrots."

"really."

Lin Guofeng nodded: "I have a colleague who has two cats. The cat food alone is a considerable expense every month. I've heard her complain a lot about how expensive cat food is and how she can't afford to keep them anymore."

He really likes these cute little animals, but it would be a bit difficult for him to keep them as pets.

It's not that I can't afford to raise them, it's that I don't have the time.

His job makes it impossible for him to even leave work on time. After a busy day, he's so exhausted when he gets home that he has no time to play with his pets.

Chen Kexin is slightly better off, but the problem is that her family lives in a large single-level apartment with her parents, brother and sister-in-law, and others. If they want to keep a pet, they have to ask for other people's opinions.

A little troublesome.

Moreover, you can't keep a pet just for a moment of novelty; you have to be responsible for their lives. You can't just throw them away because you don't like them anymore.

If you really want to raise one, you need to be mentally prepared, just like having a child.

So just look at them and that's it. At most, you might have the chance to tease someone else's pet.

……

Chen Jingle handed Lin Yuqing over to Lin Guofeng while he went to get tea leaves to make tea and cut some fruit.

Lin Guofeng had no choice but to put the cat down.

But this little thing is really adorable. It shakes hands when you tell it to shake hands, and spins around when you tell it to spin around. It's so smart!
At this moment, my desire to get a cat reached its peak!

But he knew in his heart that while he could think about it, he still had to compromise with reality; it was unlikely that his family would allow the presence of pets.

pity.

Lin Yuqing watched from the side, reaching out to touch the kitten as well. Lin Guofeng hesitated, not daring to give it to her directly: "You can't hold it. You're not very gentle right now; what if you hurt the kitten?"

Seeing her daughter pouting, about to shed a small pearl, she quickly comforted her, "Then touch the kitten's head, it'll be alright."

Actually, Lin Yuqing is quite clever. Afraid of hurting the kitten, she gently stroked the long-haired head with her small hands.

As a result, the long-haired man rubbed his head against her palm.

Feeling the fuzzy texture on her hands, Lin Yuqing giggled.

She met Longhair last week, but they were on a leash at the time.

Studies have shown that pets can reduce stress cortisol, increase dopamine secretion, and relieve anxiety in people, and this is suitable for both adults and children.

Especially for modern young people who face immense work pressure, having a pet is actually a great option.

However, not many people can ensure their pets have a good life from beginning to end, since not everyone has that sense of responsibility.

After playing with the cat for a while, while Chen Jingle was making tea and washing fruit, Lin Guofeng carried his daughter and strolled around the yard to inspect the situation.

Although Chen Jingle lives alone, the house is kept very clean inside and out, which shows that he is a person who loves life.

Not bad.

He's much better off than many single men.

As for the various flowers planted in the yard, it must have been planned and implemented a long time ago. I really admire their ideas and execution.

What I envy most is actually this big courtyard.

Since their family moved to the city, they can only experience the feeling of having a yard when they go back to their hometown.

It's much more comfortable than living in an apartment.

"I'll get a few potted plants and put them on my balcony later, at least they'll be pleasing to the eye."

Lin Guofeng pondered to himself.

……

After holding my daughter for a while, I felt a little tired, so I quickly put her down and let her wander around on her own.

At the same time, massage your sore lower back.

Chen Jingle finished cutting the mango and, seeing this scene, couldn't help but laugh: "Brother Feng, you're too weak. You need to exercise more when you have time."

"You don't understand," Lin Guofeng said awkwardly and with a sigh. "You'll understand when you get married."

"So that's why it was all fake."

Chen Jingle burst out laughing.

Feeling unwell and slightly fatigued are typical external manifestations of kidney deficiency.

Although he was not a doctor, as a low-level alchemist, he was familiar with both medicine and alchemy, and had a basic ability to make judgments about common cases.

I noticed it earlier, but I didn't want to investigate it too closely.

Lin Guofeng sighed: "Once a man is over 30, it's basically impossible for him to maintain the vitality of his youth under the dual pressure of work and family."

Chen Jingle suddenly remembered the Yang-Nourishing Pill he was about to refine, and said with a smile, "Actually, it's possible."

Lin Guofeng was stunned, and coughed twice: "What do you mean?"

Chen Jingle thought for a moment and said, "I have a friend who comes from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners. He once shared a top-secret prescription with us. According to my friends who have used it, it is indeed effective."

Lin Guofeng's expression suddenly became a little subtle, and he said hesitantly, "Well, if you put it that way, I also have a friend who might need this."

"It's not worth it for ordinary friends, is it?" Chen Jingle asked, looking troubled.

Lin Guofeng suddenly knelt down in front of Chen Jingle, which startled him so much that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry and helped him up.

"Jing Le, no, Brother Le! You're my brother! You have to help my friend! He's not just an ordinary friend, he's my dearest brother! And he'll be your brother too!"

Lin Guofeng wailed in grief.

"..."

Chen Jingle patted his arm to show his understanding.

Everyone has a friend who's physically weak, right?

"Since you've put it that way, I really can't just stand by and watch someone die."
