Chapter 304: Deskmate
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
After attending Wang Tian’s wedding, Chuchu couldn’t forget that big dog of Xiao Hu family for a long time.
For the sake of this dog, Chuchu had to go to Xiao Hu ts house almost every day.
Anyway, they didn’t live far away, and it was on the way after school. Sometimes, when the two children played Eagle Catches Chicks, the puppy would be the eagle, and they would be the chicks. They could also play happily for an entire afternoon.
Chuchu felt that the big courtyard at home was more suitable for it, so she brought it over to her house as a ‘guest’.
However, Sisi disagreed, “It stinks. I don’t want it.” The big dog was almost as tall as her. Sisi felt the dog’s mouth was smelly, and it just happened to smell her.
She didn’t want to play with it. Chuchu wanted to drag the big dog in, so Sisi stood at the door and protested.
Such a big dog weighed more than twice as much as Sisi. Seeing that the little fellow did not agree, it obediently squatted at the door and frowned.
After a period of extremely hot sun, it finally rained in Jiang City.
The storm lasted for half a month, and it was damp everywhere. The dog was rolling around in the mud pit in the yard. It was so dirty that only its eyes could be seen. Auntie Hui did not let it in.
Chuchu could only let its new friend suffer and stay at the door. However, Chuchu would also give the dog some chicken to eat so that they wouldn’t have a ‘guilty conscience’ during dinner.
Because Chuchu often went to Xiao Hu’s house, she became familiar with Lei Chen.
In the past, she did not like Lei Chen that much. She felt that although this uncle was very nice and gentle, he was always strange and did not seem to like talking.
But recently, she realized that she was wrong.
Not only did this uncle know how to play house with them, but he was also willing to let Chuchu tie braids all over his head. He also taught Chuchu how to make homemade dog food.
The meat paste made by Chuchu was eaten by Toto with relish. When Toto was eating, Chuchu squatted beside her and watched, giving her a small sense of accomplishment.
Although she still didn’t know how to cook, she could cook for Toto. She could be considered a chef in the dog world.
Of course, what made Chu Chu’s last line of defense against Lei Chen crumble was that Lei Chen was able to let her see “China Youth and Children”.
This series of magazines was too popular among primary school students.
With one magazine in each class, the child who had the magazine first was the most popular one. Everyone would borrow books from them, so there would naturally be a lot of snacks.
Although Chuchu hated this kind of atmosphere, she had no choice but to devote herself to it.
After all, “China Children and Youth” was really good to read. It was also one of the few “non-leisure books” recognized by the teachers.
Of course, Qu Zhi wouldn’t object to her daughter ordering these books, but she was afraid her daughter wouldn’t cherish the books she borrowed from others, so she asked her daughter to deduct them from her own treasury.
As soon as this suggestion was made, Chuchu’s face immediately twisted into a walnut.
She still had many plans for her little treasury. She had saved up for a long time to buy Anne of Green Gables, but if she were to buy magazines, not only would her little treasury be empty, but she would also be out of savings for a long time.
Chuchu’s desire to buy magazines was mercilessly dispelled for a long time.
Until one day, when she went to Xiaohu’s house to play, she saw a brand-new book, “China Youth and Children,” on Xiao Hu’s desk.
She asked Xiaohu if she could look at it, and after Xiao Hu generously agreed, she finally mustered up the courage to flip through it.
It was the latest episode!
The “big spender” who specialized in buying magazines was sick at home yesterday, so there was no one in class who have this issue.
Chuchu carefully held the magazine in her hand as if she had obtained a peerless martial arts manual. She stared at it as if she was afraid that it would suddenly grow legs.
Xiao Hu burst out laughing, “If you like it, you can take it back and read it. I can also ask my dad to order another one.” Anyway, he was still young and didn’t recognize many words.
Chuchu was so excited that she was incoherent, but she still refused.
To adults, magazines might not be expensive, but to her, it was not a small sum.
“Just lend it to me. I’ll definitely return it to you in a few days!”
However, the next day, before Chu Chu had the chance to show off, she realized something she couldn’t accept.
“What? My deskmate isn’t Chen En anymore?”
