Chapter 116: Are there crazy buffaloes in the village?
In the end, it was only after Du Ruo promised to take her to the tavern to eat dried fish the next day that she stopped hanging around Du Ruo.
The family had a great time eating, drinking, and chatting about what they had seen on the grassland and their horseback riding experiences.
The next morning, Du Ruo did not practice martial arts at home. After getting up, he drove directly to the B&B with Yaya Maomao.
Logically speaking, he wanted to stay home with his parents for a few more days when he just returned, but his mother was too terrible and seemed to start nagging again.
Moreover, Du Ruo had been away for such a long time that he remembered a very important thing, which was whether the clouded leopard on the mountain had given birth to cubs. The last time he went to see it, its belly was already very bulging. He also wanted to see if the newborn clouded leopard would be more adorable.
"Yuanyuan, Ah Qi~"
Standing downstairs, Du Ruo shouted.
"Boss Du, Yaya is here, come up quickly, and Maomao should come with you."
Li Qiyao opened the window and saw Yaya and Maomao beside Du Ruo. She immediately waved to them. Du Ruo called them when she came out of the house. They had just come back and decided to rest at home for a few days. They didn't plan to go anywhere. It would be a good idea to take Yaya with them so they wouldn't be so bored.
"Yaya, I'll leave it to you guys. I have an appointment with Chen Guang at noon. Let's have lunch together then."
Du Ruo said something to Li Qiyao, and after seeing the other party nod, Du Ruo turned around and went to buy beef.
I bought a lot of beef, not only for lunch, but also to take some with me to see the clouded leopards.
As usual, I went up the mountain from behind Yang Chenguang's tea garden. I was familiar with the route and it didn't take me much time to arrive under the familiar boulder.
It is now much easier for Du Ruo to climb up the boulder. He just needs to stomp his feet and jump up, then he can climb onto the edge of the boulder with his hands.
When he arrived at the boulder, Du Ruo immediately saw a clouded leopard lying in the grass under a pine tree not far away.
The clouded leopard was lying in the grass. The original grass was pressed down from the middle by it to form a natural nest. The clouded leopard was lying on its side with its eyes slightly closed. Two little clouded leopards, one lying on its belly and the other on its neck, were covered with fur and were sleeping soundly.
"Meow~~"
When the clouded leopard saw Duruo, it barked, then stood up and walked towards Duruo. The two little clouded leopards rolled off it. One of them was still asleep and continued to sleep, while the other one whimpered twice, crawled in the nest and sniffed everywhere with its nose until it came to the sleeping little clouded leopard. Then it gave a "bump", and the two little clouded leopards continued to sleep soundly like a stack of people.
"Woo~"
The clouded leopard came close to Du Ruo's legs, rolled on the ground, with its belly exposed and its tail wagging.
"You are such a jerk..."
Du Ruo smiled, took out the piece of beef from the bag and put it on the ground.
When the clouded leopard saw the beef, it stopped rolling on the ground. It immediately stood up, pressed it with its paws, and began to devour it. While eating, it kept making humming sounds. Obviously, the clouded leopard had not had a good meal for quite a while.
The clouded leopard was eating beef and didn't care about Du Ruo at all.
Du Ruo came to the edge of the grass, squatted beside it, and looked at the two little cubs in the nest.
It is very small, weighing about one pound, covered with fur, and its eyes are not fully open yet.
"What's the difference between these two little cubs and kittens? You weren't picked up by your mother, were you?"
Du Ruo looked curious and couldn't help poking them with his finger. The two sleeping cubs ignored him completely. Only the one that was poked twisted its body.
Butt, then go back to sleep.
Newborn babies are the cutest, and Du Ruo is no exception, especially this little guy whose eyes haven't even opened yet.
Du Ruo pulled up a piece of grass nearby, tickled one and poked the other, having a lot of fun.
But the two little guys were not so happy. They were poked here and itchy there, and they could not sleep at all. Maybe they were anxious or hungry. The two little guys were spinning in circles in the grass and crying.
"Meow!!"
When the clouded leopard heard the call, it came to the edge of the grass with the unfinished beef in its mouth, lay down in the grass, and continued to eat the beef.
The two little guys stopped crying and each took one in their mouth and started sucking it.
"Woo~~"
The clouded leopard was eating happily. Seeing Du Ruo squatting beside him, it touched the back of Du Ruo's hand with its head, licked its chest, and then just looked at Du Ruo.
"...I won't drink it, you can save it for your kid."
Du Ruo was silent for a while, touched the clouded leopard's head, and then spoke.
Du Ruo did not continue to go up the mountain. He played with the clouded leopard family for a long time. The little clouded leopard ate when it woke up, and slept after it was full, completely ignoring what was happening outside.
After waiting for the sun to appear again, Du Ruo jumped off the boulder, wondering if he should bring his cell phone with him next time, but he did not stop and ran quickly down the mountain.
……
After coming down the mountain, Du Ruo drove straight to the vegetable market. Since he was inviting guests over for dinner, he had to prepare more dishes. Of course, Du Ruo had little confidence in his cooking skills.
I simply bought all seafood. After all, both adults and children like seafood, and none of them are allergic to seafood. The most important thing is that it is easy and convenient to handle, and it tastes good whether it is blanched or steamed.
Du Ruo was busy for a while, and when Yang Chenguang came over, he saw that the table was already filled with seafood.
"Du Ruo, did you do this? When did you learn this skill?"
Yang Chenguang saw Xiang Yuanyuan and Li Qiyao were watching cartoons with Yaya, while Du Ruo was busy in the kitchen alone. He asked in disbelief.
"It's just cooking seafood. All you need is your hands. Okay, let's get ready to eat. Remember to bring back some of the local specialties I brought back later."
Du Ruo calmly turned off his phone. The query records on it were all: "Should seafood be blanched in hot or cold water?" "How long should prawns be steamed?" "When should soy sauce be added to steamed fish?"...
"Okay, let's eat."
Du Ruo brought the last plate of crabs to the table and shouted loudly.
"Dingling bell~~"
As soon as Du Ruo finished speaking, Yang Chenguang's phone rang. He stopped as he was about to go to the table and answered the phone.
"You guys eat, there's a crazy buffalo in the village, it just hurt someone, I have to go over there quickly."
After Yang Chenguang hung up the phone, he rushed to the door. After he finished speaking, he ran straight out without stopping for a moment.
"I'll go see if I can help. You guys eat first and don't follow me. Yaya, be careful with fish bones when you eat fish."
Du Ruo thought about it, took off her apron, and ran outside with Yang Chenguang.
