Four Seasons Three Meals

Chapter 39 Shrimp Crackers

The next day was Saturday. They got up early and didn't need to work. Jiang Huai wanted to go to the zoo to see pandas.

Jiang Huai brought his Kung Fu Panda with him, ready to meet his relatives one by one.

When you arrive at the place, park your car, buy tickets, and enter the gate.

Next to the zoo is the botanical garden, and there are a few iron trees that slipped through the net at the entrance, casting a green shade.

Jiang Huai said: "After I came to Jiangcheng, I realized that iron trees are very common to bloom."

Cong Shan asked: "What else do you know?"

Jiang Huai thought for a while and said, "Strawberries grow on the ground, and durians grow on tree trunks."

Cong Shan smiled and nodded.

He said: "The north and the south have different styles, some are rare and some are common."

Jiang Huai knew that he had been to many places and was well-informed.

Cong Shan asked him: "Huaibao, what do you do for fun when you are studying?"

Jiang Huai said: "In April in Huaigang, when viewing flowers, the peach blossoms and willows are green, and there are tourists everywhere. It is fun to fly kites in the park. Once, I saw four or five big men holding a thick rope and holding a parachute, walking on the grass in the park. run wildly."

Cong Shan smiled and asked, "It's been put up?"

Jiang Huai said: "The wind is strong in spring, let's put it up."

Cong Shan smiled and asked, "What about other seasons?"

Jiang Huai said: "In summer, go to a park with a lake, go boating, and watch lotus flowers. In autumn, go to the mountains to see red leaves. There are many people on weekends, so it is interesting to skip classes. It's worth recalling."

Cong Shan suddenly asked: "Huaibao, who accompanied you to go shopping?"

Jiang Huai said, "Classmate."

Cong Shan asked: "What else?"

Jiang Huai said, "Ex."

Cong Shan said, "I'm jealous."

Jiang Huai opened his mouth to talk nonsense: "I have a lot of exes, starting from kindergarten, one boyfriend a year."

Cong Shan said, "Huaibao, you are very attractive."

Jiang Huai continued to be angry with him: "You must know them."

Cong Shan was puzzled.

Jiang Huai began to count one by one: "Kudo Shinichi, Sesshomaru, Kindaichi..."

Cong Shan smiled and said, "Stop talking nonsense."

Jiang Huai was disobedient, counting vigorously, Cong Shan bowed his head, and kissed his chattering mouth directly.

The two strolled around leisurely. There were many animals in the zoo and more tourists.

Standing by the edge of the bamboo grove, Jiang Huai asked Cong Shan, "Why are the pandas locked up by humans, not the pandas?"

Cong Shan smiled and asked, "What's the problem?"

Jiang Huai said, "I don't know what the problem is either."

Cong Shan said: "Humans are smarter than pandas and know how to use iron cages."

Jiang Huai asked: "Then I'm smarter than you, can I lock you up too?"

Cong Shan asked, "Huaibao, are you smarter than me?"

Jiang Huai asked, "I think I'm smarter than you."

Cong Shan asked, "How many emperors were there in the Qing Dynasty?"

Jiang Huai said: "Twelve. Nu Huangshun, Kang Yongqian, Jia Daoxian, Tong Guangxuan."

Cong Shan smiled: "Huaibao is very smart."

Jiang Huai knew that Cong Shan was coaxing him, but he was embarrassed instead.

Jiang Huai said: "The me just now is not the me now. Now I think you are smarter than me, but you like me."

Cong Shan let out a "huh".

Jiang Huai said: "That's why I'm still the best. People who are smarter than me like me."

Cong Shan smiled.

The sun was rising at noon, they were wearing cotton clothes, blowing on the heater, it was a little hot, bought two glasses of fruit juice and sat on the stone chairs to drink.

Jiang Huai looked up and saw a little raccoon poking around in the bushes on the big tree covered by glass, ran away, and came back again, a little shy.

Cong Shan also saw it, and said with a smile, "Huai Bao, the little raccoon has taken a fancy to you and wants to fall in love with you."

Jiang Huai smiled and said, "Tell it, I have a boyfriend."

Cong Shan smiled.

Jiang Huai said again: "To be on the safe side, let the little raccoon line up first. One day I don't like you, I'll make friends with it."

Cong Shan bent his knuckles and tapped his forehead lightly.

Jiang Huai said: "After I graduated from elementary school, I didn't need to use this trick anymore."

Cong Shan smiled and said, "I haven't visited a zoo since I graduated from elementary school."

"Then you're still here?"

"Huaibao."

"Ok?"

"Tomorrow I will take you to visit the zoo where adults visit."

"what?"

"The cubicle."

White-collar workers are locked in a small cubicle and visited by their superiors. It is a zoo for adults.

The social animal Jiang Huai was a little depressed.

At noon they ate at the restaurant in the park.In the afternoon, Cong Shan took Jiang Huai to the racecourse in the park.

Cong Shan bought him a pack of shrimp crackers and a pack of carrot slices for him to feed the horses.

Jiang Huai couldn't hold back, secretly opened and ate half a pack of shrimp crackers, feeling a bit salty, and ate a small half pack of carrot slices.

Cong Shanzhuang didn't see it.

Today there is a horse show, and several horses are blindfolded walking in the racecourse.

Jiang Huai lay on the railing, whispering the names of each horse.

There was a horse with good ears, and when it heard Jiang Huai calling it, it ran over in small steps and rubbed his palm affectionately.

Cong Shan looked at the horse trainer's badge, on which was written the name of the horse: Shrimp Crackers.

Cong Shan smiled: "No wonder you hit it off."

Jiang Huai carefully touched the horse's neck, touched it for a while, took out carrot slices and fed it, the shrimp slices turned his head and hummed softly.

The horse trainer smiled and said: "Shrimp crackers have a picky mouth, so I only eat shrimp crackers for snacks." It seemed to be a tongue twister.

Jiang Huai let out an "oh", put the carrot slices back into the bag, opened the shrimp slices and handed them over.

Shrimp Chip snorted and buried himself in his snacks.

Jiang Huai smoothed the fur while feeding it, and discussed with it nicely: "This bag is too much, you will get angry if you eat all of it."

Shrimp Crackers ate intently, ignoring him.

Jiang Huai said: "I'll feed you shrimp crackers, shouldn't you share some with me?"

Shrimp Crackers still ignored him.

Jiang Huai said on his own, "If you don't speak, I will take it as your acquiescence."

After he finished speaking, he carefully took out a few slices and put them into a small carrot bag.

Both the trainer and Cong Shan laughed.

After feeding for a while, Shrimp Cracker is about to go on stage to prepare for the show.

Cong Shan pointed to the two horses and said, "This one is called McDonald's, and this one is called Malatang. They are of the same breed as Shrimp Crackers."

Jiang Huai said: "Their owner must be a big foodie."

Cong Shan laughed.

The first program was a horse race. McDonald's ran first, but it was not strong enough, and finally only took second place.

Shrimp Crackers ran in the middle at a constant speed, neither forward nor backward, and finally sprinted and won the first place.

After the race, the trainer led the horse around the arena. Jiang Huai deliberately lured the horse with the shrimp to prevent him from leaving.

Shrimp crackers are tame and a bit of winning pride.

On a whim, Jiang Huai sang to it.

Xia Cracker's eyes were wide open, watery, staring at Jiang Huai, probably not believing that someone sang so badly.

Jiang Huai raised his hand and stroked the mane of the shrimp slices through the fence.

The horse trainer is chatting with Cong Shan about the high IQ of Shrimp Chip.

In the middle of the night, he unlocked the door by himself, went out to graze, came back after eating, and closed the door...

The zoo workers knew what it was doing after watching the surveillance.

The horse trainer asked Jiang Huai if he wanted to ride a horse.

Jiang Huai nodded excitedly.

Cong Shan helped him get on the horse, stepped on the stirrups, turned over, sat behind him, and grabbed the reins.

They walked slowly around the venue, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, the blue sky, like water droplets.

After walking around and dismounting, the shrimp crackers performed very well, and Cong Shan bought another pack of snacks to reward it, which was much more luxurious than Jiang Huai's shrimp crackers.

For the first time, Jiang Huai knew whether a horse could laugh or grin...

He felt that his prawn crackers were a bit shabby, and wanted to touch the prawn crackers, but the prawn crackers avoided him.

He finds out that Shrimp Cracker is a snob.

Jiang Huai said: "Shrimp Chips, I fed you so much, you just smiled at me."

Shrimp Chip refused to laugh, it was very snobbish, and only smiled at Cong Shan.

Jiang Huai said: "Shrimp slices, you can't be too snobbish. Although I only have shrimp slices, I can give you all of them. Although Dr. Cong is rich, he will only buy you a bag of snacks. Don't be obsessed with material things." Huayan, you have to distinguish who really loves you."

Shrimp crackers ignored him.

Jiang Huai went around behind it, wanting to make a surprise attack.

Cong Shan pulled him back and told him: "Don't stand behind the horse, you will be kicked."

The horse trainer took the opportunity to pull the shrimp chip away.

Jiang Huai looked at its back, thought of its performance in the competition, and said, "It is quite human-like, and knows how to recharge its energy."

Cong Shan said: "Cong Yue bought a horse named Xanthos. Xanthos' parents are racing horses, and the breed is good, but he has no fighting spirit and always runs last in every race."

Jiang Huai thought about Cong Yue's temper, and said, "Then Cong Yue should be very unhappy, right?"

Cong Shan gave a "hmm" and said, "Cong Yue was very angry and gave it to me, saying that this horse can only be used for horse meat hot pot."

Jiang Huai asked: "And then?"

Cong Shan said: "Then this was heard by Xanthos, who has won several grand slams and has the same limelight."

Jiang Huai laughed: "Cong Yue must be very angry."

Cong Shan said: "Indeed. He took Xanthos back later, but Xanthos didn't want to make progress, and ran to the bottom again."

Jiang Huai smiled: "Xantos did it on purpose."

After speaking, he was a little worried, afraid that it would be beaten and scolded by the horse trainer or Cong Yue.

Cong Shan said: "Xantos is a horse with human nature. I left it in the Cong family's horse farm, let the horse trainer take it to meet the beautiful filly every day, eat and drink for it every day, doing nothing .”

Jiang Huai laughed, feeling that it was always unreasonable for people in their family to raise animals.

Cong Shan asked: "Huaibao, do you want to be Shrimp Crackers or Xanthos?"

Jiang Huai asked back: "Can I still choose?"

Cong Shan said: "Children can do it, adults can't."

Jiang Huai didn't say the answer, but just smiled and said, "How nice."

Cong Shan asked him, "Do you want to ride Xanthos?"

Jiang Huai nodded and said yes.

Cong Shan said: "Next summer, we will ride Xanthos to the mountains and pick two baskets of loquats when we come back."

Jiang Huai smiled happily: "Could it be that the shrimp crackers are also your horse?"

Cong Shan also smiled, and asked him: "Huaibao, I can understand."

He said he was a foodie...

The two stood by the railing, chatted a lot, and seemed to say nothing, and time passed quickly.

Because when it comes to racing horses who will retire at the age of 11, Jiang Huai suddenly thought that he and Cong Shan would also grow old.

If he grows old with Cong Shan, it seems acceptable even if his face gets wrinkles and his reaction becomes slow.
