Genius One Second Remember If You Want To Go? Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
When Li He returned home and opened the door, he saw that the courtyard was in a mess. The three dogs at home were biting Old Madam Yu's dog.
He quickly rushed over and kicked the dogs away. "Little Black, you're siblings. How can you fight like this? Hey, Big Yellow, this is your daughter. You don't even know her?"
One of the dogs' ears was bleeding. This dog belonged to Old Madam Yu's family. She had left, but the dog could not be taken away, so it could only be raised by Li He.
Now that there were four dogs at home, Li He was a little worried. Now that Old Madam Yu had left, who would take care of them when there was no one at home?
Li He looked at the empty house and felt an indescribable sense of loneliness.
Old Man Lee had gone to Thailand, Old Man Yu had passed away, and Old Madam Yu had gone to Hong Kong. Fu Xia had gone to Xianghe, and Shoushan rarely came.
He could not even see He Fang anymore.
After the new year, He Fang took another advanced class and was so busy that her feet didn't even touch the ground. She did not have much time to rest, so she basically did not come back anymore. All of her clothes and bedding had been moved away.
The so-called advanced classes were all teachers from local universities. Many local universities were being rebuilt, and there was a large shortage of teachers. This kind of training was indispensable.
Li He sat on the doorstep, not knowing what to do. He felt very uncomfortable.
Little Wei popped his head in and laughed, "I passed by and saw that the door was open. I knew it must be you."
Li He didn't even bother to raise his head, "What have you been doing recently?"
"Helping Big Sister Xia find a place to stay?" Little Wei said proudly. He had been following Lu Bo for the past year and had earned a lot of money.
"Why would she be looking for a place to stay?" Li He hadn't seen Fu Xia in a long time.
Little Wei said, "Big Sister Xia said she wants to open a furniture store."
"Open a furniture store? Have you found a house?" Li He did not expect Fu Xia to have such guts.
"No, her requirements are too high. She said that it has to be big, and that it has two floors. I've seen many places, but she doesn't like any of them," Little Wei complained. She had accompanied Fu Xia on many trips, and her toes were worn out.
He didn't know where Fu Xia found a foreign furniture magazine. When she saw the foreign furniture malls, she was instantly fascinated and insisted on doing it on that scale.
"Then help her run more. She won't treat you badly, so why are you complaining?" Li He didn't want to worry about these things, so he continued, "Help me bring all the dogs to Shoushan. Now that Auntie Yu is gone, there won't be anyone to feed them anymore."
Wei pointed at the cages in the front yard. "What about the chickens and ducks?"
A few chickens had already run out of the cages and were scurrying around the yard. Li He had almost forgotten about them, so he said helplessly, "Then find a tricycle and send them over."
Li He found a few ropes and tied them around the necks of each dog, then handed the end of the rope to Little Wei.
Little Wei carefully held the rope in his hand. Just as he was about to pull it, the two big dogs bared their teeth at him, as if they were about to pounce on him. He was so scared that he immediately threw the rope to the ground.
"Bro, I can't do this."
Li He saw that this was indeed not a good idea. Little Wei couldn't keep an eye on the dogs, and if there were too many people on the road, it would be troublesome if they bumped into someone. "I'll send them over then. Find a tricycle and catch the chickens and ducks for me."
Little Wei went home and found a tricycle. He called a child from the alley to catch chickens and ducks with him. After catching one, he stuffed it into a woven bag.
Li He said, "Cut a hole in the bag, or else it will suffocate."
There were less than ten chickens and ducks in total, but catching them would be troublesome.
The feathers on the chicken wings had never been trimmed before, and Little Wei was so anxious that he immediately jumped onto the wall, clucking as if he was laughing at him.
"Coo, coo, coo." Little Wei tried his best to call for the chickens, but they refused to come down. He angrily scolded, "Don't come down if you have the guts."
The child next to him thought of an idea and said, "Why don't we grab some rice and lure it down?"
The child was called Feng Kui, and he was about the same age as Little Wei. He had also finished middle school, but he wasn't as lucky as Little Wei and Wang Xinmin, who had a job as soon as they graduated. He had been floating around the alley ever since school ended, and he was not welcomed everywhere. It was obvious that he was doing badly. Seeing that Little Wei was doing well, he took the initiative to get closer to him.
Little Wei grabbed a handful of rice and scattered it on the ground. He banged the food bowl loudly and called for the chickens. The sound could be heard from the front and back of the yard.
However, the chickens on the wall refused to move.
Li He watched from the side, but there was nothing he could do. The chickens knew people too. Usually, when He Fang was around, the chickens would immediately come over as soon as they trembled.
He Fang could do whatever she wanted with them. Sometimes, this was the trust between humans and animals, so he kept them and could not bear to kill any of them.
The neighbors in the front and back of the yard also said that he was being unreasonable. What was he doing raising chickens and ducks without killing them?
"Alright, let go of the things in the bag. We'll do it next time," Li He said to the two children.
Little Wei had no choice but to listen. He poured the chickens and ducks out of the bag and untied the ropes on their legs. "Then who's going to feed them when you're not home?"
"If you don't feed them, who will?" Li He ordered Little Wei around, and he did not hold back.
"Me?" Little Wei was about to cry, and he quickly waved his hand. "I can't do this."
Feng Chuangtong said to Little Wei, "Little Wei, it's okay. If you can't do it, you still have me. It's just the two of us."
Little Wei glanced at Li He and finally nodded in agreement.
Li He had a higher opinion of Feng Chuangtong, who was still a kid. The kid had a sense of propriety.
He wanted to show off in front of Li He, but he did not tell Li He directly. Instead, he told Little Wei in the name of helping Little Wei. Most importantly, he did not want to embarrass Little Wei.
Li He only gave Lil Wei the key to the front door. He locked the doors to the living room and the bedroom. It was not that he did not trust Lil Wei and the others, but he was afraid that they would mess around in the house. The broken bottles and jars in the house were worth millions. He did not want to take the risk.
After telling Little Wei some things to take note of, he led the dogs to the restaurant on Shoushan. It was enough for the chickens to eat once a day, but not for the dogs. They had to eat every meal.
Li He held two ropes in one hand, and the dogs were not well-behaved on the road. They kept running in front of Li He, pulling him along.
It was three or four in the afternoon, and the restaurant on Shoushan was not busy. Zhou Ping was squatting at the entrance with a little girl, picking vegetables. When she saw Li He arrive, she stood up and said happily, "Sit, I'll pour you a cup of tea."
She knew that Li He loved to drink tea, and he did not even want to touch plain water.
Li He said, "Let's wait for a while. Put the dogs in the backyard first. There's no one home."
The restaurant was large, and there was a small courtyard in the innermost part of the house. Li He untied the ropes and locked the door, and the dogs ran around in the courtyard.
However, there was another tragedy of a father and son killing each other. The dog in the courtyard was also bullied and barked.
