Chapter 202 Mr. Yogurt Tests You The three of them walked slowly along the street, with no destination in mind. We walked and talked, just treating it as a walk after dinner. Passing by a stall selling grilled fish, Brother Nan couldn't move anymore and stood in front of the stall sniffing. But she ate too much rice noodles and her stomach was full, so she could only smell the food, smack her lips, and finally buy a raw saury for Yogurt. Brother Nan and Li Qinran are both girls and they are pretty. The boss generously said that it was free, but Brother Nan insisted on scanning the code to pay and asked the boss to put the fish on a bamboo stick and then hand it to Li Mu. Li Qinran reached out to take the fish, and then fed the yogurt into Li Mu's arms. She never missed any opportunity to get closer to the kitten. The light in the sky was getting darker and darker, and the street lights on both sides of the road all lit up. The three of them walked to a small park. The open space in the park was occupied by square dancing, and two black speakers were playing music with cheerful rhythms.
Square dancing seems to have changed now. In the past, all the dancers were old men and women, but now there are many young women in their thirties and forties. Especially the lead dancers in the first row, they look younger. Brother Nan is playful and active, so he naturally wants to watch this kind of excitement. I stood by and watched with interest for a long time. Li Mu suspected that if she hadn't been so full, she would definitely have sneaked in and joined in the dance. After watching the square dance, Brother Nan ran to watch the old man play chess. Two old men were playing chess, and a group of old men were watching. The onlookers followed Chuhe and Hanjie and also divided into two camps. Before the chess pieces had even made two moves, the "military advisors" of the two camps had already started arguing. Brother Nan was laughing so hard while watching this, and was fanning the flames. Li Mu looked at the old man who was becoming more and more excited, and quickly pulled Brother Nan away. This person always enjoys watching the fun and never minds the trouble. There were quite a few people on the roadside, all residents taking a walk after dinner, and some children chasing and playing. Not long after walking, we met a few talented boys who were standing on the side of the road, singing with guitars, and many girls were watching them. Li Mu listened and felt that the singing was very good, and it was obvious that the singer had practiced it specially. Nan Ge didn't care. She said that these people were playing guitar and singing here just to pick up girls. If she were a man, she wouldn't need to use these methods to pick up girls. Li Qinran nodded repeatedly to show her agreement. Brother Nan is not only good-looking, but his generous and magnanimous personality is also attractive to girls. Li Mu thought about it and felt that there was some truth in it. After strolling around for a while, the three of them took a taxi home. Li Mu located the Forestry Bureau staff quarters and asked the driver to turn to Government Street on the way.
"I'm leaving." After the car stopped, Brother Nan opened the door and got out, then bent down and looked at Li Mu and Li Qinran through the window, "Tomorrow is a holiday, I'll call you out to play when I wake up." "Yeah." Li Mu nodded. "Okay, goodbye Brother Nan." Li Qinran waved. "Goodbye, Bao Ran." Brother Nan grinned and skipped away. The driver couldn't help but turn his head to look at Brother Nan a few more times, and then peeked at Li Mu and Li Qinran through the central rearview mirror. The place where Brother Nan asked him to park was an intersection of a two-lane road. The provincial government is not far ahead of this road, and this road is a restricted area, prohibiting all foreign vehicles from entering. The driver was a local from the provincial capital and had been driving a taxi for many years, so he naturally knew what this regulated road meant. Walking along this road is the residential area of the Provincial Party Committee, where all the important figures live. He saw that the girl who got off the bus first was walking towards that residential area. The remaining two people in the car were also located in the Forestry Bureau’s staff quarters. The driver was secretly excited. This time he picked up someone whom he normally wouldn't be able to meet, and he could brag about it to others. When we got home, Mr. Li and his aunt were watching TV in the living room. Li Mu chatted with them for a while and then went to take a shower. When I returned to the room, the kitten was squatting on the windowsill of the bay window, looking up at the outside. "What is Master Yogurt looking at?" "Mr. Yogurt is looking at the sky." "Look at the sky?" Li Mu walked to the bay window and sat on it. "Master Yogurt, are you looking at the stars?" "correct." "When did you start liking stargazing?" "Didn't you often look at the stars when you were in the courtyard?" "So Mr. Yogurt is imitating me." "Hmm" The kitten turned his head to look at Li Mu, neither admitting nor denying. After a while, he spoke in a soft and gentle voice: "Sometimes Mr. Yogurt would climb to the rooftop to watch the stars with the little golden eagle, and sometimes he would lie in the yard with the tiger cub and the wolf cub to watch." "That's it." Li Mu smiled, took the pillow from the bay window and put it behind him, then lay down, reached out and held the kitten in his arms, gently stroking her back, "Mr. Yogurt must miss the cubs." "What is missing?" “Missing someone means that no matter what you are doing, whether eating, walking, or seeing something interesting, the shadow of the person or thing you miss will appear in your mind.”
Li Mu paused, "You will think about how they are doing when you are not around them. Will they be hungry? Will there be no one to play with them? For example, when Master Yogurt was looking at the stars just now, I thought of the time when I looked at the stars with the cubs. This is missing them." “This is missing you” The cat repeated in a low voice, looking up at the sky again, the stars reflected in his eyes, "Will the cubs be hungry?" "Will not." Li Mu looked at the kittens and said softly, "Didn't Master Yogurt make a lot of rats for them before he left? The Great Sage will take them down for them to eat every day, and their mother is here too." "That's right." The cat turned back and looked at Li Mu, "Will they be bored without Mr. Yogurt to play with them?" "Without Yogurt, they will definitely be a little bored, but they will also play by themselves. The toys are all in the yard." "Then you say——" "Ok?" “Are there cats in the stars?” "Probably." Li Mu smiled. A cat’s thinking is different from that of humans. Her imagination is rich, innocent, and lively. When you chat with her, her answers or questions are always very wonderful. This way of chatting made Li Mu feel particularly relaxed. Every time he chatted with the kitten, he would feel very peaceful inside. "Will there be anyone there?" "Most likely." "how do you know?" "Because there are so many stars in the sky, there must be a planet with life similar to ours." "You are so smart!" "I just read a little more books than Master Yogurt. When you learn more words and read a lot of books, you will be smarter than me." "really?" "When have I ever lied to Lord Yogurt?" "right." The cat nodded. "There are so few stars here, not as many as we see in the courtyard." “The environment in the city is not as good as that in the protected area.” "There are no chickens or butterflies in the oranges!" "There will still be some, but they will be less." "Oh." Mao Er was silent for a while, then secretly glanced at Li Mu, "Master Yogurt has a question for you."
"What's the problem?" "What's the next line of 'Look up at the bright moon'?" "Master Yogurt, do you want to compose a poem with me?" "Just testing you~" "That's it." "Don't you remember what the next sentence is?" "of course I remember." "Then why didn't you say anything?" "I bow my head and think of my hometown." "Look down and think of your hometown!" "Yes what's the matter?" "Nothing, nothing, just look at the stars!" Li Mu looked confused. Thanks to the book friend 20230206962_eC for the monthly ticket! (End of this chapter)
