Feng Yiping has always kept cats.

   In the fourth grade of elementary school, Feng Yiping's composition "My Cat" won the first prize of the county's elementary school students' composition, which was their best grade in many years in elementary school. Chinese teachers in all schools were full of praise for the essay and rushed to circulate it, but Feng Yiping couldn't remember what it was written. He only remembered that the teacher in charge of the class at the time and the Chinese teacher of their class seemed to say, "I wrote my true feelings."

   It is also out of practical need to keep cats at home.

   Although my family was poor when I was young, there were still rooms on the beams in the cabinet, and I had a lot of things to collect. Not to mention the two staple foods of rice and wheat, there are also peanuts, soybeans, sorghum, sesame, blue melon, sweet potatoes and so on. They are all used to recruit rats. I go to bed at night and I often hear rats rustling everywhere.

  Mouse traps cost money to buy, and they are not very effective. Be careful when using rats as medicine, and they don’t work much. The most practical one is cats.

   all say that cats are noble animals, indeed they are. Its nobleness is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

   One is to be clean. The cat is very hygienic and has not seen it take a bath, but it is always clean. Every time I finished eating, I always licked my paws and the oily spots on my body very clean. And when it's convenient, it's sheltered, and when it's over, it will bury the excrement.

   The second is deportment. Although it grew up in the homes of ordinary people, when it walks, it is always carefree, not humble, or overbearing, indifferent, indifferent, just like the pacing officials in Peking Opera. No matter how eagerly you call it, it will look up at you lazily at best, and keep the original rhythm when it's over.

   The cat never squatted on the ground. It either squatted on the ground in a standard posture, or occupied a chair, or squatted on it. Sometimes they jump on the stove, jump on the tall cupboard, and sit on it in a crouching tiger posture. Only in the cold winter, it will relax, lazily lying on the chair by the firepit and roasting.

  Three cats are very independent. With a cat, it is difficult for you to feel that you are his owner. It will never flatter you, and it will not buy you cute and wagging its tail at you just because you throw it a piece of fish. Of course, in rural areas, it is only during the Chinese New Year that Feng Yiping has the opportunity to carry his parents and throw a piece of fish to the cat. At this time, it will yell, and then quickly jump over. It will not "meow" at you after eating. It will just squat silently for a while, and then it will eat. When it is full, it will be on the ground. Those fish bones, fleshy bones, it doesn't care about it.

Most of the time, the family can only feed it with leftover rice, and just eat a few bites for the face. Many times, when everyone has finished eating, it will make a few noises. When you put the rice in its bowl, it will look at it. After a few glances, he jumped back to the chair and sat. Then it disappeared at some point, waited until the next meal, and poured it over to the pig, and then served it with hot rice. It still took a look, but didn't move a bite.

   is thirsty, it will not just look for water to drink, jump onto the water tank, easily grasp the edge of the water tank, bow its head, and lick the water with its tongue.

   Also, cats will never flatter their owners. When you tease it, when you are in a good mood, it does not take this to heart, and it will definitely scratch you when you are in a bad mood.

   Of course, it is also measured, as long as you are not too much, its claws will not be too hard.

   Finally, the cat is very angry. At night, the mouse came out again, babbling, babbling, and then suddenly screaming, and then calmed down. The cat was hunting. Then at night, the mice came out less and less, more and more careful, and the cat, never asked you for credit.

   Also, Feng Yiping watched the scene of a cat playing with a mouse at least twice. Hey, at that time, the cat's grace and demeanor would be impressive. To make an unsuitable analogy, it is almost the same as Kong Ming's seven captures and Meng Huo.

From when Feng Yiping remembered, the first cat in the family was a small yellow cat sent by his grandfather. The cat grew up and never came back after going out one day. At that time, his parents and Feng Yiping Said that if someone was holding the net cat, the cat might have been taken away.

   The second cat has a lot of stories. It was not caught from someone else's house, it can be said that it was delivered to the door by itself.

   It was a winter night. Another family in the village had a full moon with a child, entertaining guests during the day and playing outdoor movies at night. In the era when TV was not popularized, it was a rare modern entertainment in rural areas. Of course, Feng Yiping and his mother and sister took a stool to watch it. Seeing midway, a cat jumped straight into my sister’s arms, and fell asleep innocently. My sister put it on the ground several times, and it came back several times. When the scene was over, it followed, and it couldn’t be thrown away. Later, my mother said, take it with me, and the cat has been with me.

   That is a nice cat, with jet-black fur, smooth like silk, but on the chest, there is a piece of pure white that contrasts with black and white, which is very beautiful. The eyes are slightly bluish, very energetic, and there are three beards on each side of the cheeks, very generous.

   This cat is amazing.

   The new house that was not built that year, I lived in the old house in the middle of the city. Because I owed a lot of debts for treating my mother's illness, less than one-fifth of the pigs killed in the New Year were left in the family. In addition, I only bought some cabbage fans, calculated carefully, barely enough to eat for a few days in the New Year, and then entertain guests in the first month.

   It was the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, and one day later, the year would be 30. From the beginning of the afternoon, there was a heavy snowfall. At that time, there was no electricity and the oil lamp was lit, but there was snow outside the window, which was brighter than normal nights.

   In the evening, when a group of debt collectors had just been hosted, Feng Yiping and his mother and sister were preparing to eat with leftovers. At this time, the door creaked and the cat squeezed the door and walked in. My sister's eyes were sharp, she looked back and saw that it seemed to be dragging something. She put down the table and chopsticks and took a look, and then she cried, "Dad, Mom, come and see, the cat caught a rabbit!"

   Everyone was amazed. When I saw it in the past, it turned out that it was dragging a fluffy gray rabbit, which looked bigger than the cat itself, and I didn’t know how it caught it. This fat rabbit, of course, has become a delicacy on the table during the New Year's Eve dinner. This is also a rare event that brings joy to the family during the not-so-rich Spring Festival.

   There has been more than one such thing. At that time, the varieties of vegetables were few. In June of the following year, the vegetables from the previous season in the vegetable garden were old, and the vegetables in season had not yet grown. In Mei Qiuping's words, it was the time when the green and yellow were not picking up. It's hard for clever women to cook without rice. The housewives tried their best. At that time, most people could only use various pickles or dried vegetables for their meals.

  Dried vegetables are a better dish. They are usually dried radish, day lily, dried blue melon, or some wild vegetables left over from the sun.

   In those days when there was no picking up, Feng Yiping ate a lot of dishes that he could never eat again.

   What he dislikes the most is peanut sprouts. When pulling peanuts, there are always some fish that slip through the net. After a few days when it rains, peanuts will sprout and emerge from the ground. People pick them up when they are working on the mountain, wash them, fry them, add water, boil them, and serve them. On the table, it was a rare green dish on the table. Peanut sprouts are not as delicious as bean sprouts. They are very green, and the older ones are a bit bitter. Feng Yiping can eat the bitter taste. It is very green and heavier than that of Chrysanthemum chrysanthemum. He can’t get used to it. To buy some soup, or eat pickles.

   It's okay for the days when the green and yellow are absent in autumn. Clean up the vegetable garden, the peppers will be pulled, and some of the small peppers that have not grown up are not removed from the seeds. Take a knife and stir-fry, which is very good.

   There are also green onions. Pull back a large handful of green onions. Wash them and stir-fry them. They are very fragrant and pretty good.

   The weather is cold in autumn, and several families make a tofu together, which will not be sour after a few days. Tofu can be fried, fried, and there are many tricks, so it's a good dish. There are only a few families, and each family doesn’t have much, and can’t eat a few meals. No one is extravagant to make tofu every few days. In the countryside, life is not like that.

   So Mei Qiuping thought of a way to get the bean dregs left over from making tofu, boil it with oil, add chili powder, and sprinkle with chopped green onion. Although the smell of tofu is still strong, it is not pickle at all.

   It was another night when the cat came back with a salted fish! It was an unexpected surprise again, so no matter where it came from, the whole family drove it.

  Who knows, it came back with another one after a few days! At this moment, Mei Qiuping was a little uneasy. In the countryside, it was not a trivial matter to throw a fish or two. A small gourd disappeared in many people’s vegetable gardens, and they would be crouched on the hills and scolded them for a while~www.ltnovel.com~ At least two salted fish like this were missing at once, it was worth it The housewife in charge scolded for a long time on the hill.

   But in those days, I haven't heard people say that I lost a fish. That's okay! So everyone praised the cat for being really sensible and thinking about the family.

   Of course, once, that cat also surprised Feng Yiping sturdily. It was a summer noon. Feng Yiping was sleeping in bed in the morning. He was half-dreaming and half-awake. He suddenly saw a black claw separating the mosquito net and stretched it out towards him, and suddenly he burst into cold sweat. After taking a look, it turned out that it was the cat who also came to bed to sleep. Because of the angle, the black cat's claw looked very big at the time, like the magic claw Feng Yiping imagined.

   As Feng Yiping grows up, the cat slowly ages. It is such a good cat who is considerate and considerate of the family, and is destined to be a member of Feng Yiping's family. When Feng Yiping was in fourth grade last semester, one early winter morning, he went out and never came back.

   A few days later, exactly on Sunday morning, Sibo came to his house and said that he saw the cat on a paulownia tree on the hill and had already left. Feng Yiping did not follow. Feng Zhenchang and Si Bo together took the cat from the paulownia tree and buried it on the mountain.

   This magical cat is like a gift from God to their home. Even the way it leaves the world is so different and so noble.
