Chapter 214: Brother Nan is the place where I feel at ease
"Thank you."
The keeper extended his right hand and sincerely thanked Li Mu, "Not only did you save the life of a cub, but you also spoke well of me, allowing the panda and I to reconcile."
"You are welcome."
Li Mu stretched out his right hand and shook his hand. After thinking for a while, he added, "When you are raising pandas in the future, you should pay more attention to the emotions of the giant pandas."
"Yes, it's my fault this time. I failed to notice the abnormality in its stomach. I almost killed the cub and made it suffer for so long." The breeder said with a guilty look on his face.
"No, you got it wrong."
Li Mu shook his head. "The reason why the giant panda is angry with you is not because you didn't notice the abnormality in its stomach. In other words, this is not the main reason."
"Ah? What's the main reason?" The breeder looked at Li Mu in astonishment.
"You probably don't have any children yet, right?" Li Mu didn't answer in a hurry, but asked him back with a smile.
"No, no." The keeper was a little embarrassed by Li Mu's question, "Taking care of pandas takes a lot of energy, how can I have time to find a girlfriend?"
"I think so too."
Li Mu nodded, "It had a stomachache and couldn't eat because it had a cub in its belly that couldn't be born, but you mistakenly thought it wanted milk, so you deliberately refused to eat. Because it had a stomachache, you didn't take care of the cub, and you were mean to it. This is the real reason why it was angry with you.
"Don't be fooled by the fact that the giant panda is so big. In fact, it is just like a human child. In its heart, you are its nanny and the most important person to it. Similarly, it believes that it should be the most important person in your heart.
"But you are being mean to it because of another bear. That is absolutely unacceptable, even if that bear is its own child. To put it simply, it is jealous of its own child."
"It, it, that's its child."
"Who isn't a baby?" Li Mu said.
"."
The breeder opened his mouth, then closed it again, not knowing what to say.
He never expected that the fundamental reason why the giant panda was angry with him was actually this. He was even jealous of his own children. How could he be such a big bear now, but still be like when he was a child!
The keeper turned his head and looked at the giant panda lying on the bed through the glass on the door, feeling a little amused.
"Comrade Li Mu!"
After arranging the follow-up recuperation for the panda, Zhang An also came over, shook Li Mu's hand, and said excitedly with a red face, "This time it is really thanks to you that you helped our zoo save the giant panda and a cub!"
"Director Zhang, you're too polite. There are so many experts and veterinarians in the zoo. The pandas will be fine even without me."
"Don't be so modest! Without you, we still can't get close to the giant panda. And if you hadn't discovered the abnormality in its stomach quickly, we wouldn't have performed surgery on it so quickly. The giant panda might be fine, but the cub in its stomach wouldn't have survived!"
"As expected of you, Vice President Xu has strongly recommended you. You are still so young and your future is limitless!"
"Comrade Li Mu, I apologize for questioning you in the operating room just now."
"With rising stars like you in the veterinary field, we veterans can rest assured."
A group of experts and veterinarians from the zoo followed behind Director Zhang and talked to Li Mu one after another.
Li Mu responded with a smile, but he felt a little uncomfortable with the feeling of being surrounded and praised by others.
It would be great if Brother Nan were here.
If she were here, she could handle these things.
Li Muru was thinking.
Afterwards, Zhang An took him to the cafeteria inside the zoo to have a meal. Probably because he had informed the chef in advance, the chef prepared several delicious dishes.
Li Mu couldn't refuse, so he had to eat some.
Fortunately, no one persuaded him to drink.
After dinner, Li Mu declined the staff’s request to send him home, and did not ask them to accompany him, and walked around the zoo by himself.
The last time he visited the provincial zoo was when he was in elementary and junior high school.
Now the zoo has been renovated and expanded and has changed a lot.
As he walked, Li Mu entered the red panda pavilion.
Red pandas are small, very cute, and very docile, so a semi-open space is created here for visitors to interact with the red pandas. When the cute red pandas saw Li Mu coming in, they all tilted their heads to look at him.
They see a lot of tourists every day and are not afraid of people. Li Mu has a temperament that makes them feel very comfortable, so they all run to his side.
Soon, a large group of red pandas gathered around him, and this situation directly alarmed the keeper.
"Wow, you are so popular with them." The keeper ran out and was relieved to see that the red panda was just looking at the tourists.
At the same time, he felt a little envious. He had been feeding these red pandas for a long time, and they only enjoyed this kind of treatment when they distributed fruits.
The handsome tourist only had to go to that station and he was able to enjoy the feeling of being surrounded by furry things. Not only that, but there were also brave red pandas that asked him for a hug.
Sure enough, this world is an age where appearance matters.
The breeder sighed enviously.
Li Mu didn't touch them, but just looked at them for a while and left.
A group of red pandas stood up and looked at his back, reluctant to leave.
The keeper simply turned around and went back. It was so depressing.
After leaving the red panda pavilion, Li Mu went to the tiger park.
This used to be the largest venue in the provincial zoo, but it has now been surpassed by the newly built giant panda pavilion.
When Li Mu walked in, he saw a male Siberian tiger.
The Siberian tiger was very fat. It was lying lazily on a rock with cloudy and dim eyes.
Li Mu suddenly thought of Tiger Mom.
Tiger Mom would also lie lazily in the yard to bask in the sun, but her eyes never lost their luster.
Its eyes are always bright and sharp, and when they open and close, their gaze is as sharp as torches. That is the look that only wild Siberian tigers have, the monarch of the mountains that can hunt all kinds of beasts.
However, the male tiger in the tiger park, which is called the big tiger by tourists, has no such light in its eyes at all.
Li Mu sighed, turned around and left the zoo.
After spending a long time with real wild animals, I have a special understanding of the dullness of the artificially fed animals in the zoo.
Just like the Siberian tiger, in his eyes it was not a fierce tiger at all, it was just a show-off.
After walking out of the zoo gate, Li Mu stretched and prepared to take a taxi home.
Suddenly, I caught a glimpse of red out of the corner of my eye.
It was a red BMW, parked quietly on the side of the road.
Li Mu's lips curled up into a smile unconsciously, and he walked towards where the car was parked.
Brother Nan was squatting on the side of the road. He picked up a broken branch from somewhere and started prying the soil on the ground out of boredom.
"Why are you here?" Li Mu asked.
"Oh!" Brother Nan's hand holding the branch trembled, and he turned around suddenly and saw that it was Li Mu. "Are you done?"
"Well, did I scare you?"
"How is that possible!" Brother Nan stood up and threw the broken branch away. "Why did it take so long?"
"Performed surgery on the giant panda."
"Is it so serious?"
"She's not sick. She was pregnant with two cubs and only gave birth to one." Li Mu explained the situation to Brother Nan.
"Is it so amazing?" Brother Nan turned his head to look at the zoo, "When the cub grows up, we will come and see it. You are its savior."
"it is good."
Li Mu nodded. "Director Zhang gave me a note, saying that from now on, as long as I come, no matter how many people I bring, all tickets will be free."
Thanks to 666 for the monthly ticket! Thanks to more than love for the monthly ticket! Thanks to "lang"lang for the monthly ticket!
