Sanya squatted on the ground, tilted her head, and spoke to it lovingly, “Manek, from now on, I’m your sister Sanya. Don’t be afraid of me. What do you think about this? I’ll touch you now. Please don’t be angry at me. I promise to be very gentle.”
After saying that, the little girl nervously stretched out her trembling little hand and touched Maneki’s head.
It was just a moment, and she quickly retracted it. Then, she happily told Shu Yu, “Sister, Maneki likes me so much.”
Shu Yu was speechless. Where did she get that from?
Dahu was admired Sanya. He imitated her and reached out to touch Maneki. However, Maneki suddenly became impatient and meowed fiercely at him.
Dahu immediately stood up, pursing his lips as if he had been wronged.
Sanya immediately comforted him, “Brother, don’t cry. Maybe, Mnaeki is a girl, so she likes me more. Or perhaps you didn’t talk to it before you touched it, so it thought you would hit it.”
“I’m not crying.” Dahu’s face was tense as he said with great ambition,
“Actually, I think boys shouldn’t play with female cats. If I want to touch them in the future, I’ll handle tall and mighty dogs.”
Shu Yu was speechless again. “Sorry, Maneki is a male cat. And who told you that a tall and mighty dog must belong to a male dog?” she thought. However, Sanya looked at Dahu with admiration. “Brother, you’re so awesome.”
Dahu stood behind Sanya with his head held high and his chest puffed out. He watched her play with Maneki and reminded her occasionally not to get scratched. However, the disappointment on his face was too obvious. The old lady laughed and whispered to Shu Yu, “This kid has been stubborn since he was young.”
He didn’t say anything when he was wronged. He didn’t say anything when he fell or when he was bullied. Such a small person always felt that he was an adult. He would not act coquettishly or say what he wanted or hated.
However, he would protect Sanya, help take care of Lu Erbai, and help the old lady and Madam Ruan share the workload.The old lady thought about it and sighed. “Let them play. We’ll do what we need to do.”
Shu Yu nodded and stopped paying attention to the three cubs. She placed the mannequins in their clothes.
Not long after, Daya returned with two potted plants. The potted plants didn’t have pots or basins; they only used hemp ropes to carry the soil. Even so, it was cumbersome to carry.
Wei Lan didn’t come with her. Something happened at home, and her brother called her home.
Daniu quickly asked her, “What is this?”
Daya said, “The granny who sells flowers noted that this is called the Fortune Tree. This is the Good Fortune. I thought it had a good meaning, so I bought it. ”
Their shop would be filled with customers with the Fortune Tree and the Maneki.
Daya only bought two. She wanted to go into the mountains to look at the remaining potted plants. She could transplant them herself.
“Brother Daniu, I saw two ceramic pots in the backyard. Bring them over, and we’ll plant them first,” Daya said.
“Alright.” Da Niu ran to the backyard and indeed brought out two flower pots. This flower pot was left behind by the Yu family earlier. Since the flower pot was not damaged, they did not lose it.
Shu Yu placed the Fortune Tree on the counter and the Good Fortune on the shelf. The shop instantly felt warm.
Just as she was about to say that the two pots of flowers were well chosen, she saw a familiar figure poking his head out of the door.
Shu Yu paused, got up, and walked to the door..
