Pirates: The first companion is Tom Cat

Chapter 7 Temporary Settlement

"Oh, husband, didn't you go to work? Who is this little brother?"

The door was opened by Mrs. Goodman's wife, Mrs. Molly, with black curly hair, regular features, and an apron on her body, who seemed to be doing housework.

"This is brother Tatsuya and his cat Tom. I'll talk about the details later. Anyway, let's get them something to eat first." Goodman urged.

Molly nodded and let Goodman and Zhang Da in. She poured two cups of tea and prepared a small saucer for Tom to pour water on.

"Drink some water first, the food will be ready soon."

"Thank you, sister Molly." Zhang Da didn't remember who he heard it from. When he saw a strange woman older than himself, he just called her sister, and he could put his seniority aside depending on the situation.

In fact, Mrs. Molly is 37 years old this year. For women in this world, she is at her most domineering figure at this age.

After the age of forty, they will have a high probability of being infected with a virus called "Oda's Curse", and their body and appearance will gradually change. I can't call my sister.

"Oh, my brother can really talk!" Mrs. Molly held her face and went to the kitchen happily.

Zhang Da also sipped hot tea, and Tom licked the water in small sips. It was rare that he behaved like a normal cat.

"Well, Molly is as good as I said, right?" Goodman took this opportunity to continue talking about the heroic deeds of how he, who was handsome at the time, made Molly fall in love at first sight.

In less than ten minutes, Mrs. Molly came out with two plates, one large and one small, and placed them in front of Zhang Daye and Tom.

"Are you bragging again?" Mrs. Molly ruthlessly exposed Uncle Goodman, and said to Zhang Da with a smile,

"It's almost enough to believe one-tenth of what he said! Come and try, seafood fried rice."

"How can you say that..." Goodman complained dissatisfiedly, mumbling "remember when I was young" in a low voice.

Zhang Da also thanked him calmly, and then picked up the spoon to prepare to eat. In a short period of time, he has gotten used to Goodman's character. He is probably an enthusiastic uncle who likes to brag.

"It smells so good!" After taking a mouthful of fried rice, Zhang Da couldn't help but praise it. Fortunately, he didn't set up any flags randomly, so he couldn't be regarded as the incarnation of Jingze.

Tom took the little spoon too, and tasted it, his eyes shining.

"As long as it suits your taste." Mrs. Molly smiled, and looked curiously at Tom who could use a spoon, but she wasn't too surprised.

Zhang Da also ate sashimi for several days in a row. At this time, eating a piece of fried rice was like eating some delicious food, and he couldn't stop eating one spoonful after another.

Tom's eating habits are actually very similar to humans. Even though he has a preference for fish and birds, he still likes to eat cooked food.

While the two of them were eating, Goodman told Mrs. Molly how he had met Zhang Daye.

In fact, he went to the bank to release water after finishing the work at hand, and then found Zhang Daye and Tom paddling over on the plank.

Goodman saw that Zhang Daye didn't look like a bad guy, so he kindly reminded him of the log-in location, and brought him back when he saw that he was not in good health.

"Thank you for the hospitality. I haven't eaten such a delicious meal for a long time. Uncle Goodman said that Sister Molly's craftsmanship is good, and it really comes from the heart." No rice was left.

Tom licked off the rice grains hanging from his beard, slumped on the table and rubbed his belly, showing a comfortable expression.

"Oh, my brother is exaggerating!" Mrs. Molly covered her mouth and smiled happily.

"I'm just telling the truth." Zhang Da also stood up, feeling his strength recovered after eating a full meal, "I've been bothering you for so long, I should leave now, thank you Uncle Goodman and Sister Molly for taking care of me."

"Are you in such a hurry?" Mrs. Molly asked, "Goodman just said that my brother wants to find a place to work, right?"

Zhang Da also nodded: "Well, at least the problem of eating has been solved first, and then we can think about other things."

Goodman kept silent about his cut, and said with a smile: "In this case, I have a job here that suits you."

Zhang Da also thought that he was going to take him to work in the dock, so he shook his head and said, "I can't do it as a boatman. If you don't know how to do carpentry, it will only make trouble for uncle, right?"

"Haha, don't worry, I didn't ask you to be a boatman, brother, you can't do it with your physique." Goodman laughed, Zhang Daye's small body is really weak like a chicken in his eyes .

I'm so sorry for being so weak... Zhang Da also complained silently in his heart, even a fitness expert in the original world would probably be able to punch and scream in front of this uncle boatman.

As if suddenly realizing that it is not good to make fun of others like this, Goodman coughed lightly and continued: "That's right, I think you have received a good education, brother?"

Zhang Da also nodded: "I was still a student before I came here."

Goodman looked at him expectantly, and said, "That would be great. In fact, I want to invite you to teach that brat in my family for a while."

"Me? My level may not be as high as you imagined..." Zhang Da didn't know what to teach, and we didn't know much about this world.

Goodman said indifferently: "It doesn't matter, as long as he is taught to read and do simple arithmetic."

You may not believe it, but I just learned the characters of this world... Zhang Da also thought that it would not be a big problem if he only taught literacy and arithmetic, and the Goodman family seems to be quite reliable, so he went outside to find a new one. At work, you may also encounter unscrupulous bosses.

"If that's the case, let's bother you for a while longer." Zhang Da also agreed, so at least there is a temporary place to stay.

As for living under the fence or something, he doesn't have the money to stay in a hotel now, does he?

...

clatter...

Zhang Da also took a bath in the bathroom of Uncle Goodman's house.

After agreeing to be a tutor here, Mrs. Molly immediately tidied up a guest room and prepared a change of clothes and toiletries for Zhang Da.

When asked about their son, Mrs. Molly said that Bayer went to play with old Bob, and asked Zhang Da to take a good bath and rest, and then start class tomorrow.

And Goodman wanted to go back to work, and before leaving, he said that he would go back and inquire about the salary of the tutor, and he would never treat Zhang Daye badly.

Zhang Da also had no choice but to rejoice that he met a good person, and then he did as he wanted.

After applying the shampoo for himself, Zhang Da also lathered Tom all over. The whole body of the cat was covered with white foam, only two eyes were exposed.

I heard that human shampoo is not good for cats, but... Tom is no ordinary cat.

At this time, Tom was sitting on a small stool, resting his chin in one hand and enjoying Zhang Daye's scrubbing service comfortably.

Rinse off the foam on Tom's body, Tom shakes the water, and in a blink of an eye there is a brand new cat again.

Next, Zhang Daye squatted down. Tom stepped on a small stool and rubbed Zhang Daye's back with a towel. Despite Tom's small stature, his hands were not bad at all.

While enjoying Tom's back rubbing service, Zhang Da looked at his sunken cheeks in the mirror.

"Just five days without enough food, can you really starve people like this?"

Because he didn't have such experience, Zhang Da couldn't make a judgment. He always felt that such a big change was a bit exaggerated.

"But since Tom is hungry and thin, it should be normal for me..."

Zhang Da also suddenly noticed something was wrong, turned his head and asked, "Tom, why did you recover so quickly?"

There was a problem with the time calculation in the last chapter, I changed it secretly, thank you for your correction
