Spirit of the Mountain

Chapter 5 Growing Pains: Ah Le may become bad when he grows up

A Le feels a little weird. This is what A Pu felt after observing after getting up in the morning.

It's not that Ah Le has become fierce, or that Ah Le has become wild. On the contrary, Ah Le is now very well-behaved and more spiritual.

The black eyes were bright, filled with aura; the orange fur shone brightly, and it became softer and more comfortable to touch. I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the little one was a lot bigger before. When it was hairy, my hands were all soft and soft, and the substance of the small ribs that could be felt under my hands before was gone.

Now Ah Le is full of energy, full of vitality inside and out.

After not seeing her for a day, her own Ale seemed to have completely changed. However, Apu didn't think too much, and there was no need to think carefully about what was reasonable or unreasonable. She could feel that this was her own dog, and it belonged to her. Ah Le, this is enough, don’t think about anything else.

Although they have been together for more than a year, Apu has not let go of some past things, so most of the time he is very casual in life, and he does not take good care of A Le. Everything is done casually and casually. .

The two "people" lived together relying on each other's "Buddha nature". Apu would eat whatever Apu ate, and there were no taboos.

Ah Le is simply a dog in the mountains. Perhaps he should have been raised like this. Apu, who has no experience in caring for small animals, actually kept Ah Le healthy and happy. Although he has lost some weight, the little one is A bit tired, but still very energetic and energetic.

In the past, Ah Le was a skinny little guy who could never stop being noisy, but it was different today.

When Apu opened his eyes in the morning, he saw a pair of dark eyes set on the head of a spirited dog, staring at him quietly.

At that time, Apu had a strange feeling of being spied on by "people":

What happened to your dog?

Has he become a sperm?

Didn't it say that after the founding of the People's Republic of China, people were not allowed to become sperms?

What do you want to do?

Could it be that you were looking at yourself like this just to rob someone?

Apu, who had not yet fully woken up, had some strange thoughts popping up in his mind.

But then he threw it aside, stretched out his hands from the quilt, wrapped his hands around the familiar dog's head in front of him, and rubbed it hard before the dog could react.

Hmm, this feeling is indeed my own. Although it has become a bit weird, it is still easy to get started.

While rubbing Apu, a strange thought came to his mind: What if one day, Ale won't let him rub and hug him, and can't accompany him anymore?

amount……

This question is so difficult... Apu shook his head and shook off this terrible question.

Thinking about the problem in his mind, the warm and wet feeling on his hands told Apu that A'le started licking again, rubbed it hard a few times, then pulled the fluffy yellow piece closer, and rubbed it back and forth against his forehead. After a few moments, Apu stood up.

There are so many things that need to be done in the morning, such as:

Necessary grooming and cleaning for girls;

Go to the latrine and squat to solve the problems left over from history. You can use the time squatting in a daze to watch news videos and other things on your mobile phone;

Let’s see if there is any leftover food from yesterday. Can we make some porridge to go with it and make breakfast together with Ah Le?

After dinner, I took a look at A Le's nest and cleaned the house and yard.

As a self-disciplined girl, she should have a regular life and make detailed arrangements, so Ah Le happily decided to break these rules. After washing up, he and Ah Le shared an apple and ate it while thinking about other things to do. things.

On a sunny morning, young girls should be more casual, not to mention accompanied by elves.

Breakfast was fish soup left over from the fish that Ale brought back yesterday, and then mixed with pickles and porridge.

Yesterday, because he was worried about Ah Le, Apu had no intention of making dinner. He waited until Ah Le came back before he relaxed and prepared food.

Fortunately, my dog ​​not only came back safely and smelled like green onions, but he also brought back a strange fish weighing more than two kilograms.

Apu has never seen this kind of fish before. It has a spindle-like body, thin scales, big eyes, whiskers on its mouth, and a golden-red color on its scales. It is somewhat similar to a carp but somewhat different.

Apu, who had been worried for a long time, decided to use the fish brought back by Ah Le to make a pot of fish soup to reward himself. At the same time, he punished Ah Le. He gave her a small portion of the fish soup, skipped the extra dishes, and ran out of pig bones. Just a fish soup: Apu likes to eat fish.

Apu didn't think carefully about whether this strange fish could be eaten. Subconsciously, Apu believed in his dog's instinct of beasts, and there seemed to be very few inedible fish in his memory.

At worst, cook it over high heat. If it's not enough, cook it over high heat. There is no inconvenience in eating food that cannot be solved by boiling it. If it really can't be solved, it must be because the cooking time is not long enough and the fire is not strong enough. Not powerful enough.

The strange fish was already out of breath when I took it from A Le's mouth. I skillfully removed the internal organs, scraped off the fish scales, cut off the fish head (separately to make fish head tofu soup tomorrow), stir-fried onions and ginger, chili sauce, garlic and peppercorns. , use a knife to bring out the flavor, add oil over high heat, season the broth, and simmer the fish, a pot of fish soup with fragrant aroma, rich milky white color, and charred skin and white meat is ready.

After setting up the bowls and chopsticks, serving the rice and pouring the soup, Apu and Ale's dinner was served.

The difference is that Apu has meat to eat, but Ah Le does not, but what is the same is the way he eats and his happy mood.

After the meal, Apu originally planned to teach A Le a lesson, but maybe because the strange fish was too delicious, Apu, who ate all the fish alone, was a little overwhelmed. After packing up his things, he started to feel sleepy and just wanted to have a good sleep. As soon as he fell asleep, he decided to let A Le go for the time being and talk about it later.

There was only some fish soup left, the meat was gone, and the fish head had to wait until evening, as we had more time in the evening. In the morning, Apu and Ale had fish soup, porridge and pickles for breakfast.

After solving most of the morning's problems in a hurry, Apu found a stool to sit down, and then called Ale to his side.

Although he was a little rushed in the morning, Apu still found that his spirited dog was unusually quiet today, like a newborn baby that had just opened its eyes and silently observed the world.

Since the door was not closed when he was washing up, Ah Le stretched out his dog head by the door and stared at himself while he was washing and scrubbing. Usually at this time, Ah Le would be writhing back and forth in the grass in the yard.

While cooking, Ah Le squatted at the door of the kitchen and watched quietly as he was busy. He usually made trouble around his feet asking for food.

Although he was eating as happily as before, Apu, who was attentive, noticed that the little guy was always peeking at him while eating, as if he was studying something. Usually at times like this, Ah Le would always bury his head in eating without looking up.

The most terrifying thing was that when Apu was solving the problems left over from history, the little guy was actually scratching the door. Apu, who had never encountered such a situation before, asked Ale to wait and took her outside to play after a while.

After being quiet for a while, Apu was startled by a dog's head that suddenly got through the crack of the door.

The toilets in mountain villages are not as strict as those in cities. Some toilets have gaps of different sizes under the door. The same is true for the one Apu rented. There is a gap that is not big or small, and a dog's head can squeeze into it.

Looking at each other, Apu's eyes were dull and a little unbelievable.

A Le's eyes were filled with excitement and curiosity, and then curiosity and mischief.

Apu's first thought was that it was over. This girl had been exposed, would she be unable to marry...

The second thought turned out to be a joke on the Internet: I didn’t eat it secretly -_-

Then I feel very angry. It's like my child has turned into a bear, become naughty, and makes my hands itchy to the point of getting angry.

Immediately, an angry voice called: "Ale, get out of here!!!" echoed throughout the entire two-story cabin.

My own Ah Le has turned into a naughty kid. My own Ah Le has learned badly. This is what Ah Le is thinking now.
