In addition to the boys and girls who were playing with cats, birds, dogs, and monkeys outside, there were also a few responsible students who were good at cooking in the house. They were responsible for rolling the wrappers, chopping the stuffing, making dumplings, and cooking dumplings. Fu Tao took the fruit and dessert gift boxes from Zhang Zian into the house and distributed them to the students outside. He then took the rest of the desserts to the students outside. Except for a few girls who were determined to lose weight, basically everyone got two or three yuan.
The desserts from Wang Qian and Li Kun were exquisite and delicious, but too sweet. Fu Tao took out coarse tea leaves and boiled a pot of hot water for the students to drink and eat.
The desserts that Zhang Zian brought were not enough for so many people, so they were all distributed quickly. Fu Tao came out with the empty box and wanted to find a place to throw it away.
"Master Fu." Zhang Zian waved at him. "Can I talk to you in private?"
Fu Tao walked over, confused. "What's up?"
Zhang Zian explained euphemistically, "Well, the crew has left a few German Shepherds here. It's the end of the year, and although most of the staff of the Dog Warrior crew have left for a new film, everyone misses the dogs. I'm the only one in Binhai City now, so everyone asked me to take a few photos for everyone to see. Is it convenient now? "
"Why not?" Fu Tao threw away the empty box and took out a bunch of keys from his waist. "Come and take the photos."
Zhang Zian and Famous followed him to the kennel. Ning Lan hesitated for a moment, but seeing that they didn't object, she followed.
As soon as the door of the kennel was opened, several dogs immediately barked. They were the German Shepherds that the crew had bought from the police dog training base. The loudest barking was the biggest dog, Big Teeth. In contrast, the few police dogs in the nursing home just glanced at Zhang Zian and didn't bark. Maybe it was because they were old or well-trained, but they just looked at Zhang Zian and didn't bark.
After Zhang Zian entered the door, he quietly observed the kennel and found that it was much cleaner than last time. Disinfectant, mops, brooms, and rubber gloves were placed by the door, ready to be used at any time. The food bowls of the police dogs had also been replaced with uniform aluminum bowls. There were numbers on the food bowls, which corresponded to the numbers of the dog cages. It looked more formal than before.
There was also a vase on the windowsill. In the vase, there was a large bouquet of light yellow carnations. They were real flowers and emitted a faint fragrance. With the addition of this bouquet of flowers, the originally dark and dull kennel inexplicably gained some liveliness.
"These were all done by them." Fu Tao raised his chin at Ning Lan. "Fortunately, these young people have been coming here frequently recently. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to handle everything by myself. But I've told her many times not to do these things. It's just a waste of money. What's the point of putting vases of flowers in a place for dogs? "
"A bunch of flowers really isn't that expensive." Ning Lan quickly explained, "Besides, I didn't buy these flowers. They were given to a popular girl in my dorm by a boy. She has a rich boyfriend, so she basically receives flowers every day. We even know the staff at the flower shop. After she received the new flowers, I took the old ones and put them in. Otherwise, I would have thrown them into the trash can. What a pity. "
"Even if it's not expensive, the point is that it's useless!" Fu Tao shook his head and said, "It's troublesome to take them everywhere. When they wither, they will have to be thrown away sooner or later."
"I think it's pretty good." Zhang Zian agreed with Ning Lan's approach. "Just keep them. They don't get in the way anyway. We can't stop growing flowers just because they will wither sooner or later. It's just like you can't stop raising pets just because they will die of old age. Even humans are no exception. "
"Right?" Seeing that Zhang Zian was speaking for her, Ning Lan laughed happily.
Fu Tao sighed, "I'm a rude person. I don't understand you."
"Master Fu, the feed is ready." A boy wearing glasses pushed a cart and knocked on the door of the kennel.
"Okay, let me do it." Fu Tao walked over and wanted to pick up a spoon from the dining cart to feed the dogs.
The boy wearing glasses hurriedly stopped him, "Don't. Master Fu, you can rest today. We will do it."
"Yes!" Ning Lan grabbed the spoon first. "Today, you can just command us with your mouth."
Zhang Zian pretended to walk over casually, glanced at the feed in the dining cart, and secretly took a picture of it with his mobile phone.
There were many kinds of feed, mainly finished pellets. In addition, there were two steaming pots. One was filled with chowder, including cabbage, potatoes, carrots, eggplants, etc. It was cut into small pieces and stewed together. Although it didn't look good, it was nutritious. In the other pot, there was stewed pork belly with broth and meat. The broth was covered with oil. Most girls didn't like this kind of greasy meat dish, but it was a delicacy for the police dogs.
"Wow, the food is good." Zhang Zian pretended to be surprised. "Do you eat so well every day?"
"Basically every day. Now that it's the New Year, many families in the village next door are killing pigs. Pork is cheap, so we eat it every two or three days. If chicken is cheap, we eat chicken instead. It's much better than before." Fu Tao hesitated and said hesitantly, "That … the food money your crew sent here is for the eliminated German Shepherds, but … I'm usually the only one here, so I can't make two different dishes for one meal …"
What Fu Tao meant was that since the crew was fostering these German Shepherds, the food expenses should be earmarked for their own use, so that these German Shepherds could eat well. However, he didn't divide the money into small portions, so he directly used it to improve the meals of all the dogs here, including the police dogs that had retired because of old age or injury. They had benefited from the crew.
Zhang Zian nodded and didn't say anything. If he were in Fu Tao's shoes, he would do the same. These eliminated German Shepherds were bought as stand-ins for Famous and other police dogs. In fact, they had not been put to use. To be honest, the police dogs that had risked their lives on the battlefield and on duty should be given priority. As long as Fu Tao didn't pocket the money, it would be fine. In fact, Zhang Zian believed that Fu Tao wouldn't do that. If he was greedy for money, there was nothing else he could do than open a police dog nursing home.
"It's okay. After all, there aren't many people. It's understandable that he's too busy," he said lightly.
Ning Lan and the bespectacled male student cooperated very well. It was obvious that this wasn't the first time they had fed the dogs here. The male student pushed the cart and stopped in front of each dog cage. Except for Dog Cage No. 3, Ning Lan scooped a big spoon of pellet feed, a big spoon of stew, and a small spoon of stewed pork into each food bowl.
The dogs that got the food immediately began to eat. The dogs that hadn't had their turn yet were running around in their cages, waiting eagerly.
