The little mermaid mixed into the cat pile

The ocelot didn't come back to his senses until lunch time.

At this time, he was lying in a pile of ocean balls. As the only alien among the blue and yellow ocean balls, the ocelot looked around, then patted his claws, pushed the balls across the ocean balls, and finally rolled to the bottom of the slide entrance.

Qi Yun saw it and walked up the stairs from the other side.

"Qiao Qiao." He called out, and asked the leopard cat sealed in the ball with a smile, "Are you having fun? Do you like this ball?"

The leopard cat, who was about to accidentally fall off the slide again, paused, immediately withdrew his hand, and even rolled into the slide with him along with the ball.

"So-so, I don't really like it."

The little lion who climbed up from the bottom of the slide lay on the slide and acted as a temporary interpreter for him.

There was a smile on Qi Yun's lips, and a sea of ​​stars seemed to be reflected in his eyes.

"really?"

He asked, pausing deliberately before speaking: "But I saw Qiao Qiao playing with balls in the kitchen and sliding down the slide many times, so I was very happy."

The ocelot that was poked immediately looked at him with a stern face: "Where is it? No! Don't talk nonsense, I don't like this kind of ball, it's just a ball, I don't care about it."

The little prince tilted his head, "Really?"

Leopard cat nodded very seriously: "Maybe I'm going to lie to you?"

The little lion couldn't help laughing: "Joyce likes to lie the most."

The leopard cat immediately turned its head ferociously and looked at him threateningly.

Qi Yun said: "Wait here, I'll get something up for you to see." After saying that, he ran away, and after a while, he came up with a mirror about the size of a leopard cat, and put In front of the leopard cat.

"Qiao Qiao, when you say you don't like it, don't wag your tail. Your little tail is always dangling. This is not liking, so what is liking?"

Leopard cat looked in the mirror.

The light gray kitten was trapped in a transparent ball two or two cups the size of his body. It straightened its upper body, only its two hind paws stepped on the ground, and its front paws were tucked into the fur.

But it is not this that stands out the most.

The most conspicuous thing should be the small tail behind him that is half the length of his body and is always dangling.

Leopard cat: "..."

Go back and put the tail dark shark.

He wanted to control his tail, but the cat's tail didn't listen to him at all. He stared at the cat's tail several times, but the tail was wagging happily, without the slightest thought to lie down obediently.

Leopard cat: "..."

Qi Yun thought of a sentence he heard before:

We all know that cats and cat tails are two completely different species.

Isn't Jojo's tail the same species as Jojo, the little prince thought.

He watched the expression on the leopard cat's face change from serious to cracked and then angry, and finally couldn't help saying: "Okay, we're going to have dinner soon, and we'll go out to play after lunch." ——Does Qiao Qiao want to Do you want to play one last time?"

The leopard cat instinctively wanted to open its mouth to refuse.

...he doesn't want people to know what he likes.

Last time, the little pudding was blurted out with a quick mouth and a greedy mouth, but this time it will not work.

But in an instant, he heard Qi Yun's words - "the last time".

Then play one last time.

The leopard cat thought seriously, it had nothing to do with him, it was Qi Yun who wanted to play with him.

The little prince squatted down and watched him move to the slide entrance spontaneously. His eyes were full of liking and anticipation, but the expression on Maolian's face was serious, deliberately not letting others know what he liked.

He touched the little yellow duck sticker on the sphere with one finger, and then pushed it lightly.

"Let's go!"

The leopard cat and Qiuqiu rolled down the slide together, and landed in the middle of a pile of ocean balls. They fell dizzy, but snored comfortably.

Qi Yun went down the slide with the little lion in his arms, picked up the ball, and took out all kinds of meat and vegetables from it, but the extremely excited little cat stuffed it into his pocket, and placed the other ball on the most conspicuous place on the table. Location.

The leopard cat glanced up inadvertently, and its eyes froze for a moment.

There was a person's name on it.

—Joyce.

With a gray pen, I wrote such a name crookedly on the top, and wrote it on the belly of the little yellow duck sticker. On the fat little butt of the little yellow duck, I also drew an ugly, cute and ugly dog. Adorable kitty.

This means that this ball belongs to him.

The leopard cat took a look, stuck its upper body out of Qi Yun's pocket, looked at him eagerly, and pretended to be fierce: "Who allows you to write my name on it casually? It's not my property, how can you just write it on it?" Write my name?"

The little lion had already gone to the restaurant, so Qi Yun didn't know what he was talking about, so he patted his little head perfunctorily.

"Are you hungry? I didn't ask the kitchen to make small puddings, because after eating small puddings, Jojo wouldn't be able to eat lunch. Let's buy small puddings when we go out to play in the afternoon. What do you think, Qiaoqiao?"

Leopard cat gritted its teeth for a while, then angrily put it back into his pocket.

Hmph, for the sake of your incomprehension, I won't bother with you.

After lunch, Qi Yun put the keys into his personal yellow duck bag, put on the ugly cartoon hat he made by himself, and prepared to go out.

It's not enough for him to wear it by himself, he also has to let all the children in the big cat class wear it with him.

The caracal that finally took off its hat gave up, and jumped to a high place arrogantly, unwilling to wear such an ugly hat.

Lynx, on the other hand, had a gloomy face, pushed aside the hat that did not match his temperament and image, and watched him silently.

The leopard cat also grunted, took off the super mini hat, and looked at him with its hind paws.

The other three cats, who are completely opposite to them, have already put on small hats according to Teacher Qi's instructions, and they seem to have no sense of shame at all.

Qi Yun looked at the two rows of cats and cats that were clearly separated.

He always thought that the naughty cats would be the big cats, but unexpectedly, the three youngest cats were the most naughty ones. The little lion and the white tiger can almost do whatever they say now, and the snow leopard just stared at him with a smile for a while , and nodded in agreement with his idea.

The three small and medium-sized cats resisted the most.

Qi Yun picked up Lynx's hat, patted the ashes on it, and said unwillingly, "Do you really want to wear it?"

Lynx nodded sullenly, as if someone owed him 800 million, but knowing him, he was like that almost all the time.

"If you don't wear it, it's ugly. I don't want to be the focus of the crowd."

They didn't want to, and the little prince didn't force them, so he put away the three little hats and put them into the little yellow duck's bag with great disappointment.

"Let's go."

Ankang Mountain is one of the famous scenic spots in District A-01. Now it is the weekend again, and there are crowds of people everywhere. The food street at the foot of the mountain is full of people, and there is a big queue in front of every store.

Qi Yun's plan is to take the cubs shopping first, and then go hiking with food after shopping.

There is a temple on the top of the mountain, which was rebuilt using architectural reconstruction technology and based on the film and television materials that have flowed down in the past. Although it is not really a temple that was passed down from the people of the ancient earth, it is still very popular.You can go up and ask for anything you want.

The premise is sincerity.

No matter what you do, you should pay attention to a sincere heart.

"Look, Qiao Qiao, there is your favorite pudding." Qi Yun said to the leopard cat in his pocket, "Let's go there."

After that, he led the cubs to line up in front of the dessert shop.

There are many people on the food street, and there are many animals mixed in the crowd, some are walking by themselves, some are being held in the arms of others, but it is still rare for Qi Yun to bring so many animals at once.Coupled with his appearance, many people looked at him for a while.

The team quickly lined up in front of Qi Yun. This store is a rare store that makes delicious food manually.

The proprietress is a middle-aged lady, and she looked at him with a smile: "What do you want to buy, kid?"

Qi Yun automatically attributed the little friend she called to his cub, and picked up the palm-sized leopard cat: "What do you want, Qiao Qiao?"

The leopard cat meowed and said excitedly: "This, this, and this!" He stretched out his small paw and patted on the menu of the dessert shop.

The proprietress wrote down what he photographed: "Is there any more?"

The leopard cat shook its head and retracted it into Qi Yun's pocket.

The little prince asked Zai Zai beside him: "Is there anything else you want? If this store doesn't have it, let's go to the next store and have a look."

The white tiger straightened up his upper body, stretched out a claw on the pad, and poked it on the chocolate-flavored potted ice cream.

"Aww——" I want to eat this!

The proprietress poked again on the light screen for ordering.

The little prince looked at Snow Leopard, who shook his head, "That's enough, these are enough, they don't want anything else."

"Okay." Qi Yun bent his eyes towards the proprietress, "The three it just pointed out will cost seven servings, and another glass of this orange juice will also cost seven servings."

The proprietress paused her hands, her eyes scanned Qi Yun's body up and down, as if she was a little puzzled: "Seven copies?"

She glanced at Qi Yun's side: "Aren't there only five of you?" The landlady's eyes naturally swept over the hats worn by the three cats, and then fell on Qi Yun's hat.

Don't blame her, the three cats are exactly the same as the cartoon hat Qi Yun wears, and it can be seen at a glance that they are companions, and the leopard cat without the hat is also counted among the companions because it is in his pocket.

Only the lynx and the caracal stood far away without hats on their heads, so the proprietress ignored them.

Qi Yun understood what she was thinking, and explained: "The two over there are also my students, but they don't wear hats."

The proprietress suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "It turned out that the teacher took the students out to play. I saw that they didn't wear hats, so I thought they were not from your group. Come on, I'll get them for you. The juice needs to be made fresh, please. You wait a moment."

Her voice clearly reached Lynx's ears.

Lynx looked up, suddenly feeling a little uncomfortable.

Qi Yun stood at the counter, with a snow leopard and a lion cub in his left hand, and a very conspicuous white tiger in his right hand. The three cats and one person wore the same hat, which looked very harmonious from behind.

Qi Yun also had a kitten with its head exposed in his pocket.

It looks very harmonious.

It seemed that there was no room for a fifth person anymore, and that hat made them look like a team even more.

...He is obviously also Qi Yun's student.

But because of an ugly hat, he was mistaken for a passerby by others.

Lynx's complexion became even more gloomy.

The caracal cat didn't care about this, and lazily licked its paws aside: "Since you're so envious, then go over and watch helplessly, do you think people will walk towards you? If he likes it, he will obviously act like a baby Joyce, and the clingy Jian Shiqi (Little Lion) and You Yuyuan (Snow Leopard), Bradrick is also more popular than you, no matter how much you look at him, he won’t take the initiative to rub you.”

What he said was obviously to let the lynx pass by, but there was always a sense of frustration and sarcasm in his words.

Lynx suddenly paused.

The caracal looked condescending and mocking: "Only the abandoned will envy them."

Lynx withdrew his gaze, his expression condensed.

"Are you talking about yourself? After being cheated by someone, you still believe that you are a fool and wait for someone to pick you up. To this day, you still refuse to believe that the other party lied to you."

The caracal froze.

Obviously, what lynx said was true. When he mocked lynx, he stepped on the other's painful feet, but forgot that he was also an abandoned person.

Not only him, every cat in this class is an outcast.

They are eager to get out of the darkness, and they are eager for someone to lend a helping hand and pull them out of the dark corner.

But no one ever noticed them.

They can only stay in the dark day after day, gradually rot and stink, and completely lose the idea of ​​seeing the light. In the end, they don't even want to resent.

So much so that when the light approached, they chose to ignore it.

Not far away, Qi Yun got the dessert. The proprietress was worried that it would be difficult for him to carry it, so she gave him a special bag, which can be hung on animals, so he didn't have to work so hard.

The leopard cat jumped out of Qi Yun's pocket when he got the pudding, and sat on the snow leopard's back, as if treating his back as a dining table.

Excitedly, he opened the pudding on the snow leopard's back, lowered his head, and took bites one after another.

Qi Yun nodded his little head: "Taking Leopard's back as a dining table again, Qiao Qiao is really bad."

The leopard cat replied confidently: "If you don't take his back, whose back is it? Of course I use his back as a dining table. Besides, I am such a small one, how heavy can he carry me on his back?"

The snow leopard who understood it just smiled softly, and didn't say anything bad, on the contrary, it walked more steadily.

"Let him sit down, he wants to eat pudding, it doesn't taste good in your pocket, and it's easy to dirty your pocket."

Hearing his words, the leopard cat raised its tail and snorted: "Leopard doesn't care, it's not the first time that it's sitting on his back to eat. If Leopard cares, it will be sooner or later." Just throw me off, but Leopard wouldn't do that."

The little prince looked at the little kitten who was shaking his head and speaking with certainty, and felt that he was so spoiled and cute.

He and the little lion walked over carrying things.

The lynx lowered its head, a foot came in suddenly in the field of vision, the toe of the light blue canvas shoes, and a cute fat-headed fish was drawn on the side of the shoe.

Qi Yun knelt down in front of him and rubbed Lynx's head habitually.

"What's the matter? Why does the lynx look so lost? Did you quarrel with the caracal?"

He tilted his head, his eyes full of smiles.

Those dots of smiles seemed to really become stars, falling into his light blue pupils illuminated by the sun, as if falling into an extremely clean ocean, the whites of the eyes were sparked by the waves hitting the rocks, finely divided into pieces. spray.

Beautiful to the extreme.

At this moment, the bustling crowd turned into a background board, he couldn't hear other voices, and couldn't see anyone, and there was only Qi Yun in his field of vision.

When he is there, people's eyes will be unconsciously placed on him, and they can no longer move away. Only this person, this face, and these eyes are left in the field of vision.

The touch on the head was still there, Qi Yun rubbed it very smoothly, looking at the tips of his ears and the tufts on the ears, he felt a little emotional for a moment, and couldn't help but want to touch the tips of his ears.

Qi Yun has always been bold and reckless when it comes to sucking fluff, which is completely different from his timid temperament.

As soon as this thought arose, his fingertips squeezed past each other, touching his ear tentatively and cautiously.

Lynx: "!"

However, when Qi Yun touched a little bit of his ears, his ears fell down very sensitively and quickly. There was a "swoosh", as fast as lightning, and before the little prince even reacted, his ears fell down. behind the ear.

"...No messing around."

Qi Yun blinked, with a guilty look on his face, "Oh, I accidentally forgot, you don't like being touched on the head, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I will remember next time, I won't touch you casually feet."

Lynx flapped his ears, eager to stand up, as if he wanted to say something, he opened his mouth, but in the end he just pretended to be vicious, but in fact he asked: "How do you know that I don't know?" Do you like people treating me like this?"

"That's what Qiao Qiao said, heck, it said that sooner or later it will pluck the hair from your ears and rub your head hard. I asked it why, and it said it was because you don't like people touching you."

The little prince didn't notice at all that he had sold the ocelot, and he still seriously promised: "Don't worry, I will remember it next time, and I won't touch you casually."

The lynx's ears stood up little by little, and the black tufts on the top of the ears also went up and down, floating lightly in the air.

Qi Yun felt his heart itch.

He looked at the unknown lynx again, and thought, not only the cat's tail, but also the cat's ears and the kitten are not the same species.

Lynx was thinking about something, and it took a long time before he spoke with some difficulty: "It's not...it's particularly annoying."

"Huh?" The little prince didn't understand what he meant.

Lynx: "Divide people."

He hates other people touching him, but Qi Yun is obviously not one of them.

Lynx actually liked the pot of clover very much, even with it, he couldn't hate Qi Yun anymore.

If someone knew what he was thinking, they would tell him that it wasn't because he liked Clover that he didn't dislike Qi Yun.

It's because he doesn't hate Qi Yun that he likes Clover.

It's a pity that no one knows what he is thinking in his heart, and no one will tell him that the causal relationship he thinks is opposite.

Hearing his words, Qi Yun's eyes lit up, "Then, am I among those who can touch you, or among those who can't?" He looked at Lynx eagerly, wanting to hear from Lynx an exact answer.

The lynx didn't speak, and the two tufted ears stood up again, and the eagerness to try was already very obvious.

The little prince had no confidence in himself, so he tentatively reached out and touched it.

Her ears quivered, but she didn't move away.

Qi Yun grinned.

Lynx hated him very much when we first met, but as time passed, he gradually couldn't hate Qi Yun anymore.

Qi Yun is the cleanest among all the people he comes into contact with.

It's not about being born clean, it's about character and people being clean.He does not belong to any power, does not have all kinds of thoughts, entering the kindergarten is purely coincidental, and he does everything possible to get close to him, and it is not because of what he has, or the position under him, the power and wealth.

Qi Yun didn't know anything, there was only one reason for wanting to get close to him:

Want to lick a cat.

It is very difficult for Lynx not to like such a person. He is like the sun, not only bringing light, but also staying by his side.

He was even a little envious of the leopard cat, because the other party could act like a spoiled child wantonly, could be spoiled and arrogantly lose his temper with Qi Yun, and would be coaxed by Qi Yun in the end.

...he also wanted to be rubbed.

Why can't he have what others have?

Just knead it and do nothing.

The more he thought about it, the more confident Lynx became.

His ears comprehended what he meant, and he quietly leaned towards Qi Yun's hand, and the long black fur seemed to be absent and lightly rubbed against the back of his hand, like the tip of the softest feather brushing past.

The little prince's mood can be described as flattered.

Zai Zai, who has never liked him very much, has actually recognized him in his heart long ago, and is willing to let him rub his head that will not be touched by others.

She even took the initiative to rub him with her fur!

The little prince touched his ear hairs vigilantly, then stretched out his hands to pinch his ears, and rubbed them lightly.

Lynx's ears trembled, but he held back and didn't take it back.

He was very unaccustomed to being touched by others, so he couldn't help but look up, and seeing the smirking Qi Yun, he felt it was worth it again.

Qi Yun's arm suddenly became heavy, and the kitten who had finished eating the pudding ran over at some point, hung on his arm, looked at him seriously, seemed very angry, and was grinding his teeth faintly.

"Meow meow meow!" You actually rubbed other cats while I was away!That cat is still ugly!

Lynx's mood immediately sank when he just got better.

He looked at the leopard cat expressionlessly.

The leopard cat struggled to grab Qi Yun's arm with its two paws, and the little cat snorted coldly: "Isn't my top-quality kitten not enough for you? You still want other ugly cats!"

Qi Yun didn't understand at all, so he stretched out his hand without any psychological burden, and picked up the kitten with the other hand.

"Jojo is also good, Cecil is also good, they are all my good cubs!"

Cecil the lynx looked at the kitten whose head was so rubbed that it couldn't lift its head, and its face turned a little cold.

...Smelly human beings who are different and change their minds.

I liked him so much just now, but turned around and started to share the blessings of Qi Mao, really superficial.

The superficial Qi Yun rubbed the ears of the little cat and the big cat, and took the cubs to climb the mountain.

Halfway through the climb, more than half of the cats in the big cat class were exhausted and lay down on the resting gazebo, unwilling to leave.

The leopard cat, who hadn't reached the road at all, got out of Qi Yun's pocket and looked at the caracal with disgust: "Some bald cats even say that they are of noble blood, but they can't even climb the stairs, waste."

The caracal glared at him: "My noble claws are not for climbing, but for enjoying."

Baihu, a cat, occupied the entire bench, collapsed on it and refused to leave.

"Aww." So tired, the stairs are so long.

The lynx and the snow leopard couldn't hold it any longer, and each rested quietly on the bench.

The altitude of this mountain is really too high, and many pavilions for people to rest have been built on the mountainside.Of course, if you don’t want to climb the mountain, you can take the cable car and enjoy the scenery while slowly going up. If you don’t like the trouble, you can use the speed elevator directly, and you can get to the top in 30 seconds.

Among all the cats and cats, only Qi Yun and Leopard Cat didn't react at all.

The former obviously followed them all the way up, and now he still has the leisure to observe them, his face is rosy, and he is not even out of breath.

If he hadn't seen the tired and out of breath tourists behind him, the little lion would have even suspected that they were too weak, that's why Qi Yun compared them like this.

Caracal was a little unbelievable: "You're not tired at all?"

Qi Yun looked at the little lion and blinked: "Are you tired? I don't feel tired."

Caracal: "..."

This is the second gifted skill of the little prince after stroking cats - good physical strength.

He is weak and timid, but he has good physical strength, and he is not afraid of running a marathon in one go. Mountain climbing is easy for him.

As the only cat that doesn't feel tired, the leopard cat looked at them triumphantly: "It's just climbing a mountain. If you don't know, you might think that you were being chased for eighteen streets. Look at me, I don't feel tired at all." feel tired."

Other cats: "..."

Snow Leopard complied with the public opinion, and pressed the cheap and good-looking kitten into Qi Yun's pocket.

"You are always in your pocket, why do you feel tired?"

After resting enough, Qi Yun called the cubs one by one and walked to the speed ladder.The entire mountain has speed ladders every 300 meters on the mountain road, which are specially prepared for tourists who cannot climb down.

The little prince stuffed his cubs in one by one, took out the leopard cat from his pocket, and put it on the snow leopard's head, opened the terminal to scan the QR code to pay, and took a step back out of the elevator.

His actions stunned the cats.

Leopard Cat frowned and said, "Why don't you come in?"

This time he didn't need other cats to translate, he understood the meaning of Leopard Cat himself.

The elevator door was already closed. The little prince stood outside the glass and waved to them. He bent his eyes and said, "I think mountain climbing is quite interesting. I'll just go up by myself. You guys go up first. I'll be right there." Leopard, please watch them for me, don’t let them run around, especially Jojo, it’s too small, it’s easy to lose.”

Before he finished speaking, the speed ladder flew up with a "swoosh".

Qi Yun walked up the mountain path step by step.

No matter how ignorant he is, he knows one thing. If he wants to ask for something from heaven, sincerity is the most important thing.

When I was at the bottom of the sea, there was a festival every three years, and the place was held in the deepest part of the ocean, a place far away from the city.The fish in the mermaid country can take an airship, or catch a tuna and drive there.

But the little prince can't, and neither can his family.

Because they are royalty.

As the royal family, they have to swim there in person, and when they encounter large fish tides and large fish, they have to sink down and let the other party pass first, in order to express their sincerity and respect for this ocean, and pray to the sea god to bless the mermaid kingdom.

And when he got to the shore, if he wanted to ask the heaven for a wish, he had to show sincerity, and the most basic sincerity was to climb up step by step.

The little prince's wish is actually very simple.

All he wanted was for his cubs to live a long, happy, healthy life, just like the name of Ankang Mountain.

It was almost an hour later when Qi Yun climbed up, and the cats didn't go anywhere, they just stood at the mountain pass and waited for him.

Seeing him, the angry leopard cat was the first to rush to punch and kick him.

"Meow meow meow meow! Meow meow meow!" Brave trickster!How dare you leave me behind and climb the mountain by yourself!This is too much and you must be punished!

Qi Yun slowed down for a while, then came back to his senses, picked up the angry little kitten with his usual expression, and gave him a sip on his head.

"Don't be angry, Qiao Qiao. I was afraid that you would be bored climbing the mountain, so I sent you up with Leopard. Be good, be good."

The leopard cat was not good at all, and stepped on his palm hard.

"Meow!" Too much!unacceptable!Don't think about kissing me and I will forgive you!

Qi Yun rubbed the meowing kittens well and put them in his pocket, then went to rub the heads of the cats one by one: "Good cubs, they are all my good cubs."

He rubbed Snow Leopard's head vigorously: "Thank you, Leopard, let's go in and have a look."

This is the first time Qi Yun has seen a temple. He saw what other people did, and he did what he did. He knelt on the futon in a dignified manner, first worshiped the Buddha, and then worshiped the sea god in his heart, praying for the safety and health of the cubs .

When the group went down the mountain, they took the cable car down.

Qi Yun originally wanted to walk down the mountain, but after thinking about the cubs, he chose to take the cable car down with them.

On the way back, the dispirited ocelot took out his cartoon hat.

Don't get me wrong, he doesn't wear such an ugly hat, he just sits on it.

The hat that was just right on his head was turned upside down by the leopard cat and placed on the ground. He sat on it and played paw pawing and hand stamping games with Qi Yun on the small table in the bus.

Qi Yun stretched out his paws, and the leopard cat sat in the hat and stepped on the back of his hand with its hind paws. If it stepped on it, it would win, and if it won, it would pat Qi Yun's forehead with its paws.

After a game, it was replaced by him. He put his claws on the table, and Qi Yun could touch his little head as long as he could touch it.

From getting on the car to playing until getting off the car, the little prince never won a game.

...sorrow is so great.

While having fun, the car suddenly braked to a stop. Qi Yun thought he had arrived, and was about to get out of the car. Lu, who acted as a smart butler, spoke in a gentle and rigid electronic voice.

"It is detected that there is a living body in front, and the vital signs of the living body are weak. Please get out of the car and check, my little master. I will be ready to call the police at any time."

The sudden episode made everyone a little confused. The little prince hugged the leopard cat, got out of the car cautiously, and looked ahead.

It was dark now, and the lights of the bus shone far away.

And there was a dumpling lying on the road in the distance, showing no sign of being alive, and Lu also reminded him that the other party might be injured.

The little prince squinted his eyes for a while, and vaguely had an uncertain guess.

—It seemed to be a cat.

The author has something to say:

who's that?

Today is half an hour late, red envelopes!
