Chapter 168: Hook and Hang, No Change for a Hundred Years
"Oh?"
Li Mu lowered his head and looked into the kitten's amber eyes. "Why did Master Yogurt suddenly want to learn to read?"
"Well"
Maoer turned his head to look at Xiaoshuai and the cubs who were chatting across servers with Gnoll-Headed Gold and Brother Nan, then lowered his head, his eyes flickering, not knowing what he was thinking.
Li Mu smiled slightly, without asking any questions, poured the chopped chicken pieces into the pot, covered the pot, walked to the small stool in front of the stove, sat down and lit the fire.
He had heard the conversation between Xiao Shuai and the cubs just now, and knew why Suanyou suddenly wanted to learn to read.
This kitten is just like a child. When it hears about studying, it resists and doesn't want to learn.
He had tried to fool people for a long time before but failed. When it came to this topic, the kitten pretended not to understand.
This time, Xiao Shuai asked her questions in a very thorough manner, and she couldn't answer any of them.
That's pretty cool!
Mr. Yogurt is a big cat who is extremely smart, powerful and capable!
In order to maintain this cat image, Maoer took the initiative to find him to learn how to read.
This is good, so he doesn't have to find ways to fool me again.
Li Mu decided to give Xiao Shuai a snack tonight.
At this time, the kitten raised her head, and Li Mu also lowered his head to look at her.
"Mr. Yogurt is a busy little kitty."
"Yes."
"People should have mud ideas!"
"ideal."
"Cats also have to think! Master Yogurt wants to be a cultured cat!" The kitten said seriously. She didn't understand the questions Xiao Shuai asked her just now, probably because she couldn't read.
Since Nimu can read, he understands a lot.
"That's it."
Li Mu grinned. It seemed that although the kitten pretended not to understand what he said before, he actually remembered it.
"Mr. Yogurt actually took the initiative to ask to learn and aspire to be a cultured kitten. He is truly awe-inspiring!"
"Right!" The kitten answered subconsciously, then froze for a moment before quickly correcting himself: "It's not a kitten, it's a big cat!"
"Yes, Master Yogurt is a mighty big cat!"
Li Mu immediately corrected what Xiaomao said, paused, and then said: "But if Master Yogurt wants to learn to read, there is a small problem."
"what is the problem?"
“Learning is a long-term process, which may be a bit boring.”
Li Mu added some firewood to the stove, turned his head and looked at the kitten, "Once you start studying, Master Yogurt must not be distracted during the study process and must not think about going out to play."
"Can't go out and play?"
The cat looked at him blankly, "Can you catch mice?"
"Mice, birds, chickens, and even the bottle-chasing and sandbag-chasing games that adults like to play with are not allowed."
"Neither of them." The cat repeated in a low voice.
"Of course, you can't play with these only while you're learning. After you're done, Master Yogurt can still play whatever he wants."
"Play whatever you want~"
"Yes, but only after I finish studying."
“How long will it take to learn?”
"Studying requires a combination of work and rest. Mr. Yogurt is so smart, and he doesn't need to go to school or take exams. Two hours of study a day is enough."
"Two hours~"
"Can Master Yogurt do that?"
"Well"
Mao Er looked back at Xiao Shuai again and said, "I can do it."
"Forget it, forget it, Master Yogurt, don't learn it."
Li Mu pretended to sigh, "Mr. Yogurt is lively and active, but he can't play for two hours every day. I feel bad for him. He can't concentrate on studying and not play, so he should just stop studying."
"It can be done!"
"You can't do it. You won't be able to play for two hours." "Mr. Yogurt can do it!" The cat suddenly became very serious and stared at Li Mu seriously.
"Really? Master Yogurt, please think about it carefully."
Li Mu also imitated the kitten, with a serious face, "Master Yogurt never lies, and the mighty big cat always keeps his word."
"Master Yogurt keeps his word!"
"If you regret it later, Master Yogurt will no longer be the mighty big cat."
"Mr. Yogurt will not go back on his word!" The cat's expression became more serious.
"Okay!" Li Mu raised his right pinky finger, "Let's pinky promise."
"Pin it up?"
"Pinning a pinky promise is an agreement. Once you pin it, it means that Master Yogurt can no longer regret it."
"Pull the hook!"
The cat raised one of its little paws with a serious expression.
Li Mu hooked the kitten's paw with his little finger and said, "Pin it together and don't change it for a hundred years."
"What does it mean?"
"This sentence represents that our agreement is lasting and will never change."
"constant!"
The cat puffed out his chest, and there was a seriousness and solemnity in his eyes that had never been seen before.
"Two childish ghosts."
Brother Nan, who had been watching and recording the video for a long time, saw that the agreement between the man and the cat was reached, so he put away his phone, walked over, pushed Li Mu away from the small stool, and sat on it himself.
"Oops!" Brother Nan slapped his head after sitting down, as if he remembered something, and raised the kitten beside him and handed it to Li Mu, "You just made a promise but didn't stamp it, so the agreement is not valid. Make up one!"
"."
Li Mu stretched out his hand and pressed on the kitten's little pad again under her puzzled look.
The sentence "You say we are childish, but aren't you a childish too" was never said out loud.
The next afternoon.
Li Mu finished patrolling the forest early and returned to the courtyard.
The mother bear and her family refused to leave the yard, and they wanted to build a wooden house for the three of them to spend the winter.
Brother Nan was sitting under the parasol. There were two porcelain bowls, one big and one small, on the table. The big one was Brother Nan’s, and the small one was a special bowl for yogurt.
A group of cubs were lying at his feet, and there was a small iron basin in front of each cub.
The contents of the bowls and basins were all the same, a fruit salad made of apples, bananas and dragon fruits. Brother Nan also added a lot of honey. The two little black bear cubs ate it with the utmost relish, making smacking sounds.
One person, one cat and a group of cubs were eating while watching Li Mu sawing wood in the yard. They were very comfortable.
With the experience of building wooden houses before, Bear Mom’s wooden house was assembled in a short time, and the house was also waterproofed and insulated.
"Isn't the black bear family's wooden house ready? What are you doing?" Brother Nan walked over with a bowl.
"Build a hive for the queen bee. That makeshift hive made of a cardboard box can't hold too many bees."
After hearing from Mother Bear that there were many wild flowers on the low hill where it originally lived, Li Mu placed the temporary beehive in the wild fruit forest outside the backyard.
"Oh."
Brother Nan scooped a spoonful of fruit from the bowl and handed it to Li Mu's mouth, "Open your mouth."
"It will be ready soon. Eat it after it is done."
"It's been left out for too long. It won't taste good when you finish cooking it." Brother Nan didn't allow any explanation and pushed the spoon forward again, until it touched Li Mu's lips.
"emm"
Li Mu looked at the small spoon close to him. It seemed to be the one used by Brother Nan.
"The fruit in the bowl was left for you. It has not been touched."
After saying that, Brother Nan glanced at the spoon in his hand and said in a more serious tone, "Dislike?"
Li Mu immediately opened his mouth, held the spoon and ate it.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion.
Li Mu felt that the fruit salad this time was particularly sweet.
