Chapter 520: Cat
....Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After Lu Zhen left the hut, she could no longer see Lin Mo. However, there was only one main road at the entrance of the hut. Lu Zhen followed the main road to look for Lin Mo. The village was not big, and Lu Zhen was quite lucky. Soon, she saw Lin Mo.
Lin MO sat on a stone wall, her legs dangling. The hot sun shone directly on her face and body. Her fair skin was a light pink after the heat.
Lu Zhen opened the umbrella and walked to Lin Mo t s side. She sat down and held the umbrella above their heads. No one spoke, Occasionally, they could hear insects and birds chirping in the vegetable field and the forest. After some time, Lin MO said calmly, “Go back. It’s time for lunch.”
“It’s fine. I’m not hungry either.” As soon as Lu Zhen finished speaking, her stomach growled. Lu Zhen smiled awkwardly.
Lin MO said helplessly, “You don’t have to accompany me. I’m really fine.”
Lu Zhen did not continue the topic. Instead, she brought up another matter.
“Why don’t I see any kittens in the hut?”
Lin MO explained, “It’s not a domestic kitten.”
It turned out that an old man from a family in this village had died last year. The old man’s child had left after the old man’s funeral, but he did not care about the kitten the old man had raised when he was alive.
After the old man died, the two kittens did not leave the old house. They went out to forage in the day and returned to the old house at night.
The old man’s neighbors all said that the two kittens were humane. They didn’t leave even after their master died. After everyone sighed, they took the time to feed the two kittens and tried their best not to let them starve.
At this point, Lin MO revealed a faint smile. “You must think that the two of them are a little pitiful. Actually, the villagers fed them very well. Both cats are very fat, so I specially found a large paper box to make a cat nest.”
Lu Zhen listened seriously, a trace of curiosity in her eyes. “Then can I go and see the two kittens?”
Lin MO thought for two seconds and nodded. “Alright, follow me.”
The two of them jumped down from the stone wall. Lin MO brought Lu Zhen around the vegetable field and casually picked a few tomatoes. After washing the tomatoes in the stream, she handed them to Lu Zhen. “Eat some tomatoes first if you’re hungry.”
They each ate a tomato and walked to a small road. After two turns, they saw an old house.
The weeds at the door of the house had already grown very long. Occasionally, the people who came to feed the cats seemed to be too lazy to clean them up. They only used their sickles to remove the weeds beside the road.
Lin MO said to Lu Zhen, “Stay two meters away from me. They’re timid. You’re a stranger, so they’ll be on their guard.”
Lu Zhen nodded and distanced herself from Lin Mo.
Lin MO walked to the door of the old house, squatted down, and meowed twice. Soon, two cats emerged from the hole in the threshold. One was pure white, and the other was tortoiseshell. Lin MO reached out and touched the white cat, then scratched the tortoiseshell cat’s chin. The two cats rubbed against Lin Mo’ s pants and looked at Lu Zhen warily.
Lu Zhen did not approach and only watched from afar.
Lin MO didn’t care whether the two cats could understand her or not. She said, “l came out in a hurry today and didn’t bring you anything to eat. The cat nest is broken. I’ll make two more another day. The weather is getting colder. You should still be able to warm the stove with your master last year, right? I’ve checked. It’s quite cold this winter.” After saying that, she patted the two cats’ heads and let them in. Then, she stood up and walked towards Lu Zhen.
Lu Zhen sighed. “Have you known them for a long time? It seems like they trust you very much.”
“About a month. When I first came, I saw the white cat when I was wandering
around. Later, I met them often. I fed them, and they gradually trusted me.”. After saying that, Lin MO smiled faintly. “It’s a pity that you only came for one episode. If you were also a permanent guest, you could have become good friends with them.”
Lin Mo’ s smile was very clean and innocent. Lu Zhen could feel that Lin Mo’s heart was also clear and transparent. She did not know how to hide her emotions, so when Lin MO saw that the child had broken her cat nest, she threw a tantrum.
Lu Zhen imagined it. If it were her, perhaps she would choose to pretend that nothing had happened.
Lu Zhen was a little envious of Lin Mo t s straightforwardness. Lin MO did not like to talk to strangers. After guests came to the hut, she would not pretend to be very enthusiastic. She did not like to talk, so she did not take the initiative to talk to others..
