Chapter 1820 The Girl Holding a Cat
Life is always bitter and sweet.
Graduation, finding a job, raising a family, renting a house, eating, traveling, spending what little salary you have, and then experiencing unemployment, running takeout, going through wind and rain, living in the cheapest rental housing, and eating the cheapest fast food.
Now that I live in a pet store, I don’t have to be exposed to wind and sun, and I don’t have to fall asleep smelling musty smell. I also have a group of cute little guys to accompany me.
Being able to sit down and read a book to enrich himself is already a very comfortable thing for Jiang Hao.
When I had nothing to do, I took out my mobile phone and opened Douyin to take a look. The uploaded song "Travel Away" already had hundreds of thousands of hearts, tens of thousands of comments, and more than five million views. His number of fans increased again. , more than 80,000.
In the comment area below, many comments are about the little brother’s side profile and his peerless appearance.
Brother, please post more songs, there are only two in total.
He is talented and good-looking, but his updates are too few. If he can increase his updates, he will definitely become a new generation of internet celebrity.
There are even many private messages saying that he belongs to such-and-such team and such-and-such company, and he can be packaged and built into a new generation of Internet celebrities.
To be honest, Jiang Hao is not very interested in becoming an Internet celebrity. His starting point for posting songs is just to record his mood.
Jiang Hao has two days off every month. He took leave on this day and planned to visit Wang Baohua.
Carrying things, I arrived at Wang Baohua's house. The person who opened the door was Wang Baohua's mother. When she saw Jiang Hao, she greeted her warmly, "Xiao Hao is here. Come and sit in the room."
Hearing Jiang Hao's arrival, Wang Baohua came out of the back room on crutches.
After divorcing his wife, he got into a car accident, and his parents moved from a suburban county to Binhai City. After more than four months of recovery, Wang Baohua was able to get out of bed and walk around. The doctor also recommended that he move more to help with recovery.
"Mom, let's go down and take a walk."
"Okay, you go ahead. I'll go to the vegetable market to buy some food. Xiaohao will eat here at noon." The old lady said with a smile.
"Okay, Mom." Jiang Hao agreed.
When Jiang Hao came downstairs, he wanted to help Wang Baohua. Wang Baohua waved his hand, "No, I'm used to walking."
The two went downstairs and strolled around the community.
Wang Baohua is quite lucky. He almost had his leg amputated after the car accident, but he is recovering well now. The doctor said that based on the current situation, he will not have much problem walking in normal life in the future, but he will not be able to do any physical exercise, such as running.
The taxi was owned by their family and had insurance. The more expensive thing about a taxi was the procedures and license plate. The insurance company lost the money, so their family borrowed some money and bought a new one. Now Wang Baohua's father drives it and rents it out.
Originally, the old man worked as a taxi driver for half his life. Later, when his son did not have a good job, he inherited this business. It was natural for the old man to retire and return home to take care of himself.
Now his son is divorced, injured his leg in a car accident, borrowed hundreds of thousands in foreign debt, and has to pay monthly mortgage payments. Wang Baohua still needs to continue to recover from his injuries.
There was no other way. The man in his sixties, already gray-haired, had no choice but to go back to work and start renting again.
Walking downstairs with Wang Baohua, Jiang Hao said, "Why don't you see Dabao?"
Dabao is Wang Baohua's son.
Wang Baohua was silent for a while.
"His mother picked him up."
Jiang Hao looked at Wang Baohua, who looked a little confused, "Dabao's mother broke up with the Land Rover driver. In fact, it was nothing. She was just having fun, and within a few months he found another woman."
"Now she has no place to go, so she goes back to live with her parents. Her family's conditions are very average. They live in a suburban village. Her parents live with her younger brother. Her younger brother is also married. She was in a relationship with her younger brother and sister before. The relationship is not good, and I guess things won’t be very good now.”
"I suddenly came to pick up Dabao a few days ago. This was the first time I saw her after my divorce, and it was also the first time she came to pick up the child. She sat in my room for a while and even asked about my condition."
"She is much more haggard than before, and she is less arrogant than before. Haha, Haozi, brother is not stupid. I can guess what she is thinking. After all, we have been married for several years, and I understand her character."
"Yesterday, I received a call from a relative who told me about her situation and said that she regretted it now and wanted to come back. My relative advised me that for the sake of the children, it is better for the two of us to remarry. A complete home for children.”
After saying this, Wang Baohua paused and gritted his teeth.
"Do you know how much I loved her and spoiled her before? She was the treasure in my heart. But now, I don't feel any fucking feeling in my heart at all. Let alone love, I don't even fucking hate her anymore."
"No one told me about my car accident this time. In fact, it was because I was sad about the divorce that I was in a daze and hit the guardrail. Otherwise, how could I, a taxi driver with several years of driving experience, hit the bridge pier by myself."
"This car accident made me feel like I was in another world. After experiencing the joys and sorrows of life and death, all the thoughts I had about her suddenly disappeared."
"But look at the child, Dabao is only over two years old. There is no child who would not miss his mother. Haozi, do you think I should still accept that woman?"
Jiang Hao didn't answer because he didn't know.
If you have not experienced other people's suffering, you are not qualified to help others make decisions.
At noon, we had dinner at Wang Baohua's house. After the meal, he chatted with Wang Baohua for a while, and then Jiang Hao returned to the pet shop.
When Xiaoqin and Xiaoying saw Jiang Hao coming back so early, they came over and said, "Brother Hao, you have a holiday today. Why did you come back after such a short time?"
"Actually, I don't have anywhere to go during the holidays. I just went to see a classmate today. He had a car accident a few months ago." Jiang Hao said.
There are no guests now, and we sat down to chat for three days. As we chatted, we talked about Wang Baohua again. Jiang Hao didn't say his name, but just said that he was a classmate. He had just divorced and had a car accident. He borrowed more than 100,000 yuan in debt. The old man was over 60 and started driving a taxi again. His life was very difficult.
At this time, Xiaoqin said: "If you want to talk about hardship, I have a cousin. That family is really hard."
"My cousin is my grandmother's cousin, my mother's uncle. When my cousin was young, there were three brothers and sisters in the family. One day, his mother took the two children to farm, and later all three drowned in the creek."
"My cousin's father took care of my cousin. When he was 13 or 14 years old, his father died, and he lived alone. Six relatives helped him, and he farmed and dug sand. In the end, he was able to support himself."
"My grandma said that my uncle worked harder than others because he had a hard life since he was a child, and he never argued when he was wronged. My uncle was pretty, and someone helped him find a wife."
"My uncle's wife was a good person, and she didn't ask for a dowry and didn't look down on his poor family. The two families sat together and had a meal, which was probably not as good as a casual meal we have in a restaurant now, and my uncle's wife married and lived with us."
"Later, my uncle had a son. My uncle was able to endure hardships, and my aunt was able to manage the household, and they lived a good life. It was OK. My cousin also married and had children. Unfortunately, a few years later, my cousin fell off his motorcycle and died, leaving behind his wife and a four or five-year-old grandson. "
"For rural people, men are the backbone of the family. If the backbone collapses, it is difficult for women to make a name for themselves in the village. They suffer all kinds of grievances and are looked down upon. My cousin's mother took out her grievances on her family and often quarreled with her aunt. "
"The son died, and the wife was like this. My cousin's grandmother was so upset that she drank paraquat. The thing couldn't save her, and she died. "
"My cousin Seeing that my aunt was alone and pitiful, my uncle arranged for her to remarry. My aunt didn't have children, so in the end, my uncle and his grandson were left to depend on each other. Later, when my grandmother died, my uncle came to pay his respects. He was in his sixties, but not yet seventy, and his face was full of vicissitudes. "
"My mother told me these things in a casual chat after the old man passed away."
Jiang Hao has read a novel called "To Live" and thought that Xiaoqin's uncle had a similar experience to Fugui, who was severely destroyed by life for his entire life.
In fact, think about us, our parents are alive and well, and we think that the heaven is unfair to us because of a little setback.
People should be grateful.
Not to others, but to life.
Just as he was talking, the boss Wang Bin came and looked at the employees in the store and said, "It's another month. The business this month is not bad. Salaries are paid today."
Paying salaries is definitely a happy thing. Wang Bin pulled up the accounts on the computer to calculate the accounts. Jiang Hao received more than 7,600 yuan in salary and commission.
It was no less than running a takeaway, Jiang Hao was going to take half home and keep the other half for himself.
"Jiang Hao, come with me to the farm to buy some cats and dogs." Wang Bin said after handing out the money.
"Okay, boss."
The two drove to the suburbs, where there was a cat and dog farm. The scale of this farm was not small. Jiang Hao looked around and found that there were almost all kinds of cats and dogs. Of course, Wang Bin only selected the best-selling cats and dogs, so there were only more than 20 varieties in the store.
Jiang Hao stood behind during the entire purchasing process. He saw that the purchase price of these cats and dogs was much lower than the selling price.
For example, the most popular British shorthair golden tabby, silver tabby, and ragdoll cats, which are of excellent appearance, are often sold for three to five thousand in the store, but the purchase price is only more than one thousand, which is several times the profit.
In fact, other cats and dogs are similar. The purchase price and selling price are often several times different, so pet stores are also the kind of industry that does not open for three days and makes money for three days after opening.
Wang Bin said before that the pet shop only made a few hundred thousand yuan a year after working so hard. Jiang Hao was sure that he was not telling the truth. Based on the observations over the past month, Wang Bin's shop definitely made a profit of more than 200,000 yuan a year.
He took the new cats and dogs back to the pet shop to clean and inject them. Wang Bin graduated from the veterinary major and was qualified as a pet doctor. He was very experienced in doing these things, and Jiang Hao was there to help.
It was already seven or eight o'clock in the evening after he was done. Wang Bin and Jiang Hao said goodbye and left. Jiang Hao added some pet food and water to all the cats and dogs, and returned to his room to continue reading.
In more than a month, he had already read all the books left by Wang Bin, even those more advanced medical books, but he did not have a pet doctor's certificate and was not qualified to practice medicine.
"Bang bang bang~!"
The door of the pet shop was suddenly knocked. Jiang Hao was stunned and looked up at the clock on the wall. It was already ten o'clock in the evening. Who came so late?
"Bang bang bang~!"
The shutter door rang again, and the person outside the door was very anxious.
Jiang Hao quickly opened the shutter door and saw a girl in a white down jacket standing outside the takeaway, holding a ragdoll cat in her hands, with an anxious look on her face.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Hao asked.
"Are you a doctor? My cat is sick and vomiting blood. Please take a look at it quickly." The girl came in anxiously.
Jiang Hao found that the cat in the girl's hand was breathing rapidly with its mouth wide open, and a stream of saliva was left from the corner of its mouth.
The most serious thing is that there is blood in the saliva.
I don't know if it is poisoned or other diseases.
"I'm sorry, girl, I'm just a pet beautician, not a pet doctor." Jiang Hao said.
The girl was about to cry when she heard it.
"What should I do? My Mimi is dying." Her eyes were red.
"Hurry up and go to other pet hospitals. Don't waste time." Jiang Hao said.
"But I don't know where there are pet hospitals. The closest one I found is yours." The girl said in a crying voice.
"I know there is a large pet hospital over Sanyuan Road. They must have doctors on duty." Jiang Hao said.
The girl rushed outside with the cat in her arms, but she stood outside for a long time and no taxi passed by. The anxious girl stamped her feet.
Jiang Hao looked at the girl's anxious look, thought for a while and said, "Girl, the pet shop is not far from here. How about I take you there?"
The girl turned around and said, "How are you taking me there?"
"I have an electric car."
Jiang Hao pushed the electric car out of the store, pulled down the shutter door and locked it. The girl quickly sat in the back seat. Jiang Hao took the girl and the cat and walked seven or eight miles all the way. Finally, they came to the pet shop. There was indeed a doctor in the pet shop.
"How did you find it? What were the symptoms before?" asked the pet doctor.
"She was fine before. I was playing with her before going to bed and frightened her with a ghost mask. She suddenly became like this. I was so scared that I rushed to see a doctor."
After examination, it was found that the cat's problem should be stress-induced respiratory inflammation and bleeding, which was not too serious. The cat was quickly given oxygen and then an injection. It didn't take long for the cat to stabilize.
Finally, the doctor asked the cat to stay for observation for one night and come back tomorrow. The girl paid the money and left the pet hospital with Jiang Hao.
Walking to the street, the girl saw Jiang Hao through the street light and noticed that Jiang Hao was so handsome. She thanked him and said, "Thank you for sending me here, otherwise Mimi would be in real danger."
"You're welcome. Do you want me to take you back or do you take a taxi yourself?" Jiang Hao asked.
"I live in a community a few hundred meters away from your pet store. How about you take me?" the girl said.
"No problem, get in the car."
The girl got in the car and grabbed Jiang Hao's clothes from behind. Following the girl's instructions, she quickly arrived at the gate of the community. Jiang Hao looked at the community. It was an upscale community. The people living here should have very good conditions.
"Thank you, little brother. By the way, I don't know your name yet?" The girl asked Jiang Hao after getting off the car.
"My name is Jiang Hao."
"My name is Tang Rourou. Haha, bye, little brother." The girl ran into the community.
Jiang Hao rode his bike back to the pet shop and pushed the car in.
He didn't sell this electric car, but kept it for himself. He pushed it outside the store during the day so that it wouldn't take up space, and pushed it in at night when the store was closed to prevent it from being stolen.
Seeing that it was almost eleven o'clock, Jiang Hao was ready to go to bed. He didn't care too much about what happened tonight, it was just a small matter.
But he didn't expect that two days later, the girl named Tang Rourou appeared again, holding the ragdoll cat, and stood in front of Jiang Hao with a smile.
"Hello, little brother, we meet again, Mimi, come and say hello to your brother, he saved you that night."
Then he picked up the cat's paw and shook it at Jiang Hao.
The man and the cat gave Jiang Hao a sweet smile together.
