Forest Kindergarten

Chapter 5: A Thank You Gift from the Civet Mother

The rain was pattering on the woods, and the wind from the window at the end of the corridor was cooling.

"Er raccoon? Go to bed now." Ye Kong whispered, and the little raccoon obediently went back to the room.

"..." Ye Kong pushed Lianpei, trying to maintain politeness and demeanor, "Please get off me."

Lianpei blushed a little. He was a majestic Master Mountain Ghost, and the mountain would tremble when he called out his name. He was overturned to the ground by an unknown small barrier, bound his body, probably for a while. Unable to get up, he could only say awkwardly, "I...can't move..."

Ye Kong touched the bath towel and stuffed it between the two of them.The postures were too weird, but one couldn't move, and the other couldn't be pushed away. He asked helplessly, "How long will it take to move?"

Lian Pei: "One hour..."

"what happened?"

"That room has an enchantment, ghosts can't get in."

There have been too many strange things in the past few days, and Ye Kong is no longer surprised by them. He is also a person who goes with the situation, just like the current situation, in the arms of the mountain ghost, he actually felt sleepy and yawned: "You are a ghost, how can you have a body?"

Lianpei: "Can those lonely ghosts be compared with me?" Even using the title of "this me", the mountain ghost's tone is like a child's complacently.

"...Isn't it impossible to move..." Ye Kong complained in a low voice, but was still heard by the other party.

Lianpei: "I am... this is careless, how could I have thought that there would be such a powerful barrier in this shabby house... I will tear down this shabby house later!"

The coolness came through the red robe, it was cold but not ice, it must be very comfortable to hug in summer, Ye Kong thought wildly: "You want to tear this place down, where will we live? Your group of civet cats like it here."

Lian Pei: "They can't live here forever, it's too close to humans, it's dangerous."

Ye Kong: "How can human beings be dangerous? Beasts and monsters are the ones that are dangerous!" After he finished speaking, he regretted it. They all said that wild beasts are dangerous. Human beings cut down trees, polluted water sources, and hunted animals for selfish desires. kind……

Lianpei's body was continuously gushing out with coolness, and Ye Kong felt that if he hadn't been unable to move, he would have torn himself to pieces.

He put his arms around Lian Pei, patted his back lightly and said, "I'm sorry."

Lian Pei was on the verge of anger, he was stunned for a moment when he heard his apology, Ye Kong continued: "I can't apologize to all human beings, I just apologize to you for what I said just now."

Lianpei's coldness subsided, and although he couldn't move, he still relaxed his body: "It's good that you know you're wrong. You're different from those humans. You're good to the cubs, and the food is delicious. I'll let you live. You take good care of the cub, don't get along with those human beings, I will cover you... well, it's better to cook for me... eh, did you hear that?"

Ye Kong took care of the child all day and tidied up the open space. He was so exhausted that he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

He woke up in another bedroom, covered with a quilt.

Before dawn, he tiptoed to the children's room. Fei Miao kicked off the quilt, grabbed a civet cat's tail with one hand, and fell asleep drooling.Feiya grabbed the quilt in her hand and kicked her younger brother in the face.

Ye Kong covered them with the quilt, rescued the tail of the big raccoon and the three raccoons, and went downstairs.

It probably rained all night and just stopped. A lot of water accumulated on the open space, and the woods were covered with mist. The water droplets fell on the ground along the leaves and merged into a small stream.

It was even a little cold in short-sleeved shorts, Ye Kong touched his arm, thinking that it was even colder than Lian Pei.

Lord Shangui didn't know when he left.He returned to the house with the enamel milk jug and began to prepare breakfast.

The village specially prepared milk for him, and it was delivered before dawn. The milk was freshly squeezed to supplement calcium for Feiya Feimiao. He poured out a small cup and drank it, closing his eyes and dancing excitedly.

It's so delicious, fresh milk is sweeter than packaged milk, and the milk taste is also good, but you can't drink too much.

He looked at the time, poured the milk into the milk pot, heated it until it boiled, turned off the fire and let it cool for a while, and then boiled it. This was repeated three or four times, and the sterilization process was completed in about 10 minutes. Layers of rich and sweet cream.

The fog outside was thick and it was likely to rain. He removed a door panel and smoked it with wormwood. When it rained, there would be more mosquitoes.

When the milk was brought to a pleasant temperature, it was dawn, and the sun was hidden behind the clouds and mist, and only a white light could be seen.

Ye Kong went upstairs to wake up the children, and lined up to wash up.

Both Fei Ya and Fei Miao don't like brushing their teeth, especially Fei Miao. Asking him to brush his teeth is like killing him. Ye Kong held him under his armpit and carried him to the sink: "Miao Zi, open your mouth!"

Fei Miao twisted and let out a loud cry.Fei Ya was watching the fun with a toothbrush in her mouth, and the foam of toothpaste sprayed out from laughter.

Forced to brush Fei Miao's teeth, Ye Kong broke out in sweat, and secretly made up his mind to reason with Fei Miao.

For breakfast, fried eggs, scallion and rapeseed heart, honey pumpkin, evaporated cake and milk.Add butter, sugar and cornstarch to the remaining milk leaves, heat and stir well and store in the refrigerator.

After breakfast, it started to rain again. The civet cats didn't like the rain, so they lay down on the straw mat and took a nap.

Erli likes to play with Fei Ya, and turns into Fei Ya, and writes with her. Ye Kong gave her a notebook and a pen. Her hands are not as dexterous as humans, and she can't write well after writing for a long time, and she sweats a little. Come on.

Seeing Fei Ya write her name, she followed suit, and finally wrote it crookedly around noon, and proudly showed it to Ye Kong: "Fei Ya, Fei Ya!"

Ye Kong praised her, took out the solidified milk jelly from the refrigerator, unmoulded it and cut it into small pieces, divided each person into three pieces, cut some apples, and put them on a small bamboo plate as an extra meal.

The milk cube is sweet, and children love it. If it has condensed milk, cocoa powder or coconut milk, add it together when heating, cut it into pieces and wrap it with a layer of shredded coconut, it will be even more delicious.

"It's delicious~" Fei Ya praised.

"It's delicious~" Erli also followed suit.

The misty rain gathers in the mountains and forests and cannot dissipate. Although the wooden house is old, it is well maintained and there are no leaks.

In the sycamore forest, it seems that someone is walking with an umbrella.

The civet cats hid upstairs, Ye Kong shouted from the porch: "Village chief!"

The village chief's black rubber rain boots, holding a big black umbrella with two broken bones: "Mr. Xiaokong."

He put away the umbrella and put it on the ground, took off his shoes and went into the house, took the tea from Ye Kong and asked, "Aren't the siblings making trouble? Don't think that Ya'er is a girl, she is skinnier than her brother!"

Fei Ya put the finished plate in the kitchen sink and made faces at the village chief.

Ye Kong: "No, no, they are very obedient, Ya'er is also very capable of learning, very smart, basically once taught."

The tea in the village chief's hand was steaming, and he said with a smile, "Are you still used to living here? Is there anything uncomfortable?"

Ye Kong: "No, everything is fine, thank you village head and folks for making such thorough preparations for me."

Village head: "Hey, you treat Zongshan Village as your own home, and if you need anything, just tell us!"

"Thank you, mayor."

The village head said with a smile: "I contacted the town office yesterday, and they said that the support teachers in other villages had all retreated, and they wanted to gather all the cubs from several villages together, but I didn't expect you to come. God, a boy from the next village will also come over, and then the two villages will hold a welcome party for you, and people from the town will also come."

Ye Kong waved his hand: "Don't be so troublesome. I appreciate everyone's kindness. I also have selfish intentions when I come to teach. I have seen Zongshan's photos before I came here. I like it very much. I am happy to be able to live in such a fairyland-like place for free. It's too late."

He spoke sincerely, and the village chief was very happy, and he repeatedly persuaded: "Then you should come to the welcome party to get acquainted with the villagers, and we haven't seen each other for many years, so we can get together and have a good time when you come here lively."

The kindness is hard to turn down, so Ye Kong had no choice but to agree.

The village head brought the meal cooked by his wife, but he refused to stay for lunch together, and left with a broken black umbrella.

After lunch, the children went to take a nap, and Ye Kong sat on the porch drinking tea.

The rain stopped, and there was a little wind, blowing the mist high into the sky, the sun slowly emerged, beams of golden light fell on the puddles in the open space, and the water droplets on the eaves dripped, tick-tock-tock-tick-tock golden ripples.

There is the sound of frogs in the distance, and the mountains and forests are quiet and distant.

Far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, Ye Kong calmed down physically and mentally. He has been in the orphanage since he was sensible.He was well-behaved and sensible when he was a child, and he knew how to help the dean and teachers with work even if he couldn't speak well.

He knows how to be grateful, tolerant and gentle.A self-disciplined and dedicated personality always desires a little indulgence, and his indulgence is just like his own.

When he saw Zongshan's photo, he decided to come here. Other students chose a new village with good Internet access, or a township-level school. Only he chose a village closest to the mountains.

This is his indulgence, away from doubt and incomprehension, only nature can tolerate it.

The sound of frogs stopped, and something came running from behind the house. He turned his head and looked over. A big civet cat ran out from under the pedestal. Its coat wetted by the mist became wisps, and it looked at him warily. .

"Hello, are you the parent of the civet cat babies?" Ye Kong asked, patting the floor beside him.

The civet cat jumped onto the porch, and in a blink of an eye it turned into a woman dressed as a peasant woman, with a limp on her bare feet, timidly afraid to step forward.

Ye Kong beckoned her to sit down: "They are taking a nap, are you here to pick them up?"

The civet cat mother shook her head: "I'm here to thank you." She took out a cloth bag from her pocket and stuffed it to Ye Kong, "I have bad legs and feet, they are always hungry..."

Ye Kong understood, and said with a smile: "You're welcome, you can pick them up when they grow up and find food by themselves. You are also welcome to visit them often."

The peasant woman smiled, turned into a civet cat, jumped off the porch and ran away.

Ye Kong opened the small cloth bag, and there were three mushrooms with soil neatly placed inside: "Oh, it's matsutake!"
