"Steamed Bun, you little baddie!" Murphy looked at Steamed Bun, who was staring at her pitifully. The little yellow dog also had a pitiful look on its face. This made Murphy unable to vent her anger. However, there was no point in blaming Steamed Bun now. Steamed Bun wasn't human, so it wouldn't understand anything she said.
The problem was, what about the little goldfish?
Although one died, there were still three spare tires, but this was the most beautiful little goldfish. Xi Xi really liked it. If she knew, wouldn't she be heartbroken?
Thinking about how sad the little girl would be and how she would cry, Murphy's heart was in a mess. She felt terrible and uncomfortable.
"Murphy, we're preparing to go to Boss Lan's house to take a look," Wu Yue said to Murphy in the living room. "Do you want to come with us?"
"I'll come too! I have something to ask Yang Yi about. " Murphy forced a smile. She scooped out the dead little goldfish, put it in a plastic bag, and brought it over.
Of course, before she left, she didn't forget to cover the fish tank with a wire mesh.
When they arrived at Lanzhou Kai's villa, Xi Xi was playing with Lan Xin, Yang Luoqi, Chen Shiyun, and Nan Zhaoyu, and the other children, throwing little balls at Lan Xin's Samoyed.
"I want to come too!" She heard the little girl's cheerful laughter, and then Murphy saw Xi Xi run across the grass, chasing after the Samoyed and taking the little plastic ball from its mouth.
The Samoyed was also very excited. It stood up like a human, sticking out its tongue and waving its two front paws as if to say, "Throw it to me! Throw it to me! "
The little girl threw the little plastic ball high up into the air. The Samoyed flipped over, and its large body was still very agile. It pounced forward and bit the little ball in mid-air.
"Amazing!" Xi Xi and the other little girls jumped and jumped, all cheering excitedly for the Samoyed.
"It's my turn." Nan Zhaoyu also seemed to be in the mood. He happily ran to the Big Samoyed, stroking its soft hair while reaching out to ask for the ball.
Other people's dogs …
Murphy glanced at them and waved at Yang Yi, who was watching over the children, to come over.
"You guys go and play. I'll take care of the children." Wu Yue happened to see Murphy and Yang Yi's actions, so she volunteered to take over Yang Yi's duties. She walked towards the children with a smile.
Wu Yue's maternal instincts were aroused when she brought out this group of innocent little fellows to play.
"Xi Xi forgot to close the lid of the fish tank, and now the little goldfish is dead. What should we do?" Murphy pulled Yang Yi aside, carefully opened the bag, and said sadly to Yang Yi, "We have to think of a solution. Otherwise, Xi Xi will be very sad!"
Murphy had such an experience. When she was a child, her family's dog fell sick and died. She was so sad that she couldn't eat for several days.
Yang Yi looked at the dead goldfish in surprise. He frowned and asked, "Who did this? Little Gray? Little Guai? Or Shito? "
"It's not a cat, it's Baozi. When I went to the kitchen, I happened to see it by the fish tank. Its paws were still wet, "Murphy said.
Yang Yi nodded gently. But if it was Little Gray who did this, Little Gold would have disappeared …
"Can we buy the same one for Xi Xi and bring it back?" Murphy suggested.
"It shouldn't be a problem. It's just that, in such a rush, how would we have time to buy a new one for Xi Xi? She'll be bringing her friends home for some snacks later. Chen Shiyun and Xin Er were talking about this just now. " As Yang Yi spoke, he pondered. Then, his gaze fell on the huge aquarium tank in Lan Xin's living room.
This aquarium tank was not just big. Lanzhou Kai had previously gotten someone to arrange it into an ecological aquarium tank. Hundreds of goldfish swam around inside, beautiful as an underwater world.
"Big Brother Lan, help!"
…
At night, the noisy villa finally quieted down, and the children returned home. Xi Xi, who had played the whole day, was still not satisfied. She had already finished eating and was still circling around the dining table, excitedly telling her parents about the fun stories of her friends.
"Zhaoyu said he likes puppies and doesn't like little goldfish, but, but his Mom didn't let him raise puppies, so he raised little goldfish …"
"Qiqi didn't dare to play with Steamed Bun, then, then I told Qiqi that Steamed Bun was very obedient, so Qiqi played with Steamed Bun …"
As Yang Yi listened to his daughter's story, he subconsciously glanced at the "obedient" Steamed Bun. Although he and Murphy hadn't had the time to give Steamed Bun a lesson on ideology and politics, Steamed Bun seemed to have realized that he had gotten into trouble and didn't dare to look at Yang Yi.
He only saw his ears drooping, neck shrunk, head lowered, sitting pitifully to one side, completely unlike his usual crazy dog appearance.
Yang Yi and Murphy listened to Xi Xi's story with a smile, but didn't give a positive response. They also didn't dare to mention the little goldfish to Xi Xi. They avoided the topic of fish, delaying it for as long as they could.
But after taking a shower that night, before Xi Xi went to bed, she thought of her little goldfish. She hadn't done her homework to observe the little goldfish that day! So the little girl giggled, grabbed her camera, and wobbled down the stairs barefooted.
"Wait, Mom! Mom will go with you. "Murphy felt like she had done something wrong, so she followed behind Xi Xi in fear.
In the side hall, Xi Xi skillfully opened the mechanism, opened the lid, and looked at the fish tank. After a while, the little girl made a puzzled sound. "Huh?"
"What's wrong? Is something wrong? "Murphy was shocked and asked nervously.
Did Xi Xi see through it?
"Mom, this stone fell!" Xi Xi pointed at the rockery in the fish tank, looked at her mother with confusion in her big eyes, and said.
Murphy took a look. It was the rockery that the steamed stuffed bun had dropped. She and Yang Yi were so focused on getting the little goldfish back that they didn't remember to restore the rockery to its original state.
But it didn't mean that there was a problem with the little goldfish!
Murphy let out a sigh of relief, smiled, and said, "It's okay. Maybe Dad accidentally knocked it over when he was changing the water in the fish tank. It won't affect us."
"Mom, you have to tell Dad not to hit the little goldfish. They will hurt," Xi Xi said with concern. Her worried little face still looked very cute.
"En, en. When Dad comes out of the shower, I will tell him!" Murphy quickly nodded and said.
Xi Xi started to take pictures of the little goldfish. Murphy watched from the side, but her heart was still hanging. She kept muttering to herself, "Did they pass? Did they pass? "
"Mom, Mom!" Xi Xi suddenly turned her little head and happily told Murphy about her discovery. "Little Goldfish has grown bigger! It is bigger than Little White and Big White! "
The little girl was so surprised that Murphy almost thought that she had been exposed and was shocked.
However, it seemed that Xi Xi's reaction wasn't sadness, but happiness?
Murphy remembered the excuse that she had discussed with Yang Yi before, and she was secretly happy. "Xi Xi doesn't suspect that Little Goldfish isn't the original Little Goldfish. She just said that it has grown bigger. She should be able to fool us!"
"Little goldfish can grow too!" Murphy said softly, "Just like Xiao Guai and steamed stuffed bun, they are also growing up, right? You have taken care of Little Goldfish for so long, it must have grown up too! "
"Really?" The little girl was so happy that she danced with joy. She had been looking forward to the little goldfish growing up, but after observing it every day, it seemed that she couldn't see any changes. She didn't expect it to suddenly appear!
Xi Xi didn't doubt her words at all, which made Murphy feel a little guilty. She felt that she had deceived Xi Xi. After all, the little goldfish couldn't grow up so easily.
However, sometimes white lies were necessary. Murphy looked at Xi Xi's happy and not sad expression, and the big stone in her heart was put down.
"Xi Xi, this is a very good discovery. You have to record it," Murphy said softly to Xi Xi.
"En, en!" The little girl nodded with a smile. She sat down at the small table, then took out her recording pen and skillfully pressed the record button. Then, she happily told her new discovery as if she was telling a story to a good friend.
