"I promised my mom that I would never let pets affect my studies, but …" The little girl felt wronged, and her eyes turned red.
"But think about it. If you have a pet and it affects your studies, your family will definitely not allow you to continue keeping it. Maybe they will give it away or abandon it. Wouldn't the pet be very pitiful then?" He patiently explained.
"Woo …" The little girl looked at the hamster, probably imagining the hamster living on the street.
"So, it's not completely impossible for you to keep pets, but you have to exercise self-control from now on. For example, you have to get up and go to bed on time. You don't have to be called or urged. You have to help your family do some manual labor, like sweeping the floor, washing dishes, and so on. The most important thing is to study hard. You can't fall behind. Do you understand? "
The little girl's eyes lit up with hope. She nodded vigorously. "Yes! I understand! Thank you, Brother Store Manager! "
Zhang Zian smiled. "You don't have to thank me. These things are easier said than done. It's easy to do it for one day, or two days. The difficult part is whether you can stick to it. First, set a small goal. For example, stick to it for a semester. Let your parents see your efforts. "
She raised her small fist. "I can stick to it!"
"Okay, go to school. Don't be late."
After sending the little girl away, Zhang Zian fed the other three cubs some food, letting them eat until they were 80% full.
Many people loved pets. They were afraid that their pets would not have enough to eat. Every meal, they would feed their pets until they could not eat anymore. This kind of behavior is worthy of discussion. Whether it was humans or animals, the best state was between half and 80% full. Many studies had proven that eating this way could lead to better health and longevity.
Eating less and eating more often was the right thing to do.
Eating too much would lead to chronic diseases such as high blood fat and high blood pressure. Pets would also suffer from these diseases. Zhang Zian had seen a lot of fat cats and dogs that were too fat to walk. This was not a good thing. Wasn't there a fat Siberian tiger on the news a while ago?
The ancestors of pets were wild beasts. They were always threatened by famine. They would eat until they were full when they saw food, because they did not know when they could eat their next meal. Modern pets raised at home have no natural enemies, nor will they suffer from famine, but their habits have been preserved. Pets had no self-control, so they needed their breeders to control them.
If you love it, don't let it eat too much.
For pet shops, it was enough to feed the pets until they were seventy to eighty percent full. If the customers came, the pets would jump on the customers more enthusiastically, wagging their tails and begging for food. This was good for increasing sales. A well-fed, lazy, and indifferent pet would be hard to sell and find its real owner.
The pet shop was only a halfway inn, not the final home of the pets.
The pets were eating very happily, but Zhang Zian secretly sighed. Business had not arrived yet. If this went on, wouldn't it be a waste?
"Meow, Zian is not happy?"
Xinghai sensed the change in his expression.
It was squatting on the crib he had prepared for it, its body half buried in the soft, spongy mattress, only the upper half of its face exposed, its silver-gray eyes flashing as it stared at him.
"No, who says I'm not happy? I'm very happy! "
He cheered himself up. No matter what, he couldn't let a kitten worry about him.
"Come, do you want to play hide and seek? Xinghai! "
"Meow! Hide-and-seek! Hide-and-seek! I want to play! " Xinghai's eyes were shining, and it looked extremely excited. The crib gently swayed with its movements.
"Or should I be the ghost?"
"Meow! Zian be the ghost! Xinghai is getting serious! When Xinghai is serious, even Xinghai is afraid! "
Zhang Zian was speechless. Xinghai had learned what he had said a few days ago.
"Okay! You go hide! Let me tell you, I am more serious than you today! I am the man who will be the king of hide-and-seek! "
"Meow! Meow! "
Today's result was the same as a few days ago, Zhang Zian lost miserably.
That day, Xinghai deliberately lost, right?
After the hide-and-seek game, he lay on the recliner to rest, often glancing at the pedestrians outside the shop. There were so many people coming and going, why didn't anyone stop to walk into the shop?
Xinghai's eyes were shining as she looked at him.
…
Da! Da! Da!
The sound of high heels was light and rhythmic, just like the beat of a drum.
Zhao Qi finished her morning work, took her bag, and left the office building to find a restaurant to eat. She usually ate with a few female colleagues, but she was in a bad mood after being scolded by her boss. She wanted to be alone for a while, so she declined her friends' invitations.
She walked on the street with her head down, and the more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She bit her lower lip tightly.
"It was not my fault. Why do I have to take the blame?"
"I heard that the new assistant is a relative of the manager. No wonder the manager always favors her when there is a dispute!"
"I am so angry! I really want to quit! "
But she was just thinking about it. Now that the real economy was not doing well, and her job was paying well, it was too risky to quit.
"Hold on! I will hold on! One day, I will teach that b * tch a lesson! "
As she breathed heavily, the sound of high heels on the ground became chaotic.
The sign of Amazing Fate Pet Shop passed by the corner of her eye, but she did not pay attention to it.
…
The sign of Amazing Fate Pet Shop passed by the corner of her eye, but she did not pay attention to it. She took out her phone to check the messages.
…
The sign of Amazing Fate Pet Shop passed by the corner of her eye, but she did not pay attention to it. Her neck was a little itchy, so she reached out and scratched it.
…
The sign of Amazing Fate Pet Shop passed by the corner of her eye, but she did not pay attention to it. She saw an interesting license plate of a car.
…
The sign of Amazing Fate Pet Shop passed by the corner of her eye.
"What? A pet shop? "
She stopped walking.
She was quite hungry, but she was full of anger, so she did not want to eat for the time being.
She had never had a pet since she was a child, so she did not even have the idea of buying a pet shop.
"Forget it. I will go in and have a look. If there are disgusting crawling pets, I will come out immediately!"
Since she had nothing else to do, she decided to go in and have a look.
…
Xinghai's head was down, and her eyelids were drooping, as if she was struggling to fight against sleep.
"What's wrong? Xinghai, are you not feeling well? " Zhang Zian sat down on the recliner. He did not notice the professional woman who was walking towards the door. His attention was on Xinghai, who was acting strangely.
"Meow … Xinghai is a little sleepy … I want to sleep for a while …"
Zhang Zian let out a sigh of relief and said softly, "Then go to sleep."
187 futures that Zhao Qi passed by disappeared, and one future that Zhao Qi decided to go into the shop collapsed into reality.
