Chapter 33: Dog Cub White Radish
Egg custard is exclusive to Shen Shuyu, and now there is also Gu Jiandong.
For breakfast, the Shen family had multi-grain pancakes, while Shen Shuyu and Gu Jiandong had egg custard and multi-grain pancakes.
He really can eat a lot. He ate ten pancakes. When Shen Shuyu asked him if he was full, he said he was half full.
"Jiandong, you're not full yet, eat a few more. Grandma Shen will make more later."
How could Gu Jiandong be polite? Shu Yu said this was his second home and he could eat whatever he wanted and do whatever he wanted.
Seeing him eat so much, the other members of the Shen family were surprised, but they didn't say anything. He was just eating his own rations, so what could they say?
Saying it will make the old man or old lady unhappy.
After breakfast, Goudan, Heidan and other children came to play with Gu Jiandong.
Shen Shuyu told them not to run too far and asked Gu Jiandong to follow them out to play.
Gu Jiandong ran out the door, turned around and didn't see Shen Shuyu following him, so he ran back, "Shuyu, don't you want to play with us?"
"I won't go. You just have fun with them." She had to go to the black market today and couldn't take him with her.
"OK then."
Shen Shuyu sat at home for a while, then picked up the backpack and went out.
This time she didn't ride the ox cart because it was too bumpy. Although walking was a bit slow, at least she didn't suffer.
After walking and resting for a while, he left home at 8:30 and arrived at the county town at around 12:00. Shen Shuyu simply disguised herself.
After paying 10 cents to enter the black market, Shen Shuyu found a small boss in the black market this time.
"What do you want from me?"
The younger brothers called him Scar Brother. He was tall and thin, with a scar on his face. He looked ferocious, but Shen Shuyu was not afraid of him at all.
People come to the black market either to buy or to sell. Shen Shuyu directly lifted the black cloth on the backpack, and a silly roe deer was lying inside.
Scar touched the silly roe deer's neck and said, "Not dead yet? You are quite capable.
How about this, we become friends, and when you hunt wild animals in the future, come directly to me.
How about this silly roe deer for 90 cents a pound?"
Ninety cents per pound is not too low, Shen Shuyu nodded, "Okay, Scar Brother, you can just call me Xiao Su, I will come to you directly when I hunt wild animals in the future."
Scar called his younger brother to call it a silly roe deer. The silly roe deer weighed 55 kilograms, and he sold it for 49.5 yuan.
Shen Shuyu bought 50 kilograms of flour and 50 kilograms of rice on the black market.
After walking around, he found an uncle carrying a puppy in a cage. Shen Shuyu walked over to take a look and asked, "How much do you sell this dog for?"
People who come to the black market to sell things are very cautious and are ready to run away at any time.
The dog seller had been here for quite some time, but the dog had not been sold yet. Seeing Shen Shuyu coming to ask for the price, the dog seller thought there was a chance, so he put down the cage and took the puppy out to show Shen Shuyu.
"One price, fifty cents. Look at this puppy of mine, it's plump, healthy and strong. It's worth buying it to guard the house."
The puppy had black hair all over its body. It was not afraid when being held out. Its tail was wagging and its pair of bright black eyes were staring at Shen Shuyu. Shen Shuyu reached out to touch it. The little guy was very obedient and licked her with its tongue.
Shen Shuyu instantly fell in love with the little guy and took out the money, "I want this dog."
The dog was sold, and both parties were happy. The uncle who sold the dog put the dog into Shen Shuyu's backpack.
The two hurriedly left the black market.
Shen Shuyu found an empty alley and threw flour and rice into the space. There were also a few rabbits in the space.
Shen Shuyu didn't sell them, letting them jump around in the space.
Afraid that Gu Jiandong had had enough fun and would get anxious when he got home and couldn't find her, Shen Shuyu strode back home.
When I got home, a tall figure rushed out and said aggrievedly, "Shu Yu, where have you been? Why didn't you take me with you? Am I not good enough, so you want to abandon me?"
Even though Gu Jiandong seemed to have adapted well to the past two days in the countryside, he actually didn't feel safe at all.
The person closest to him here is Shen Shuyu, because before going to the countryside, Gu's father and mother told him every day that Shen Shuyu was his sister and the person closest to him.
"Big sister, you don't know. Brother Jiandong almost cried when he came home and didn't see you. He sat at the door waiting for you to come back. He didn't even eat lunch when I called him at noon."
Shen Shuyu peeled a candy and put it in his mouth, then patted his head. "Gu Jiandong is the best. I don't want to abandon you. I'm going to buy you a gift."
When Gu Jiandong took out the black puppy from the backpack, it was furry and chubby. His eyes lit up immediately. He took it and held it in his arms, stroking its head curiously. "It's a puppy."
"Yes, it's a puppy. If I'm not at home in the future, I'll let it accompany you."
Shen Qiu also likes dogs. When her elder sister brought home a puppy, she touched its paws and said, "Sister, this little dog is so well behaved. It's not afraid of us at all."
"You two play first, I'm going to wash my hands."
By the time she came over after washing her hands, Gu Jiandong had already put the dog down. The little guy was wagging his tail and spinning around, looking around the new home with his black eyes and occasionally whimpering.
Fearing that it would be thirsty, Shen Shuyu found an unused bowl at home and filled it with water. It licked it a few times and then stopped drinking.
The puppy rubbed its head against the back of Shen Shuyu's hand. Shen Shuyu had no resistance to the puppy and held it in her arms.
The three of them squatted in the yard and stroked the dog's fur. The puppy enjoyed it very much and fell asleep in a few minutes.
Shen Qiu asked curiously, "Sister, where did you bring this dog back from?"
"I found it in the mountains. Maybe someone threw it there, and I brought it back." Shen Shuyu didn't intend to tell the truth. If her grandparents knew that she went to the black market, they would definitely be worried.
"Sister, you are so lucky. You can always bring good things back home from the mountains." Either green wild vegetables, mushrooms, pheasants or rabbits. Today, you even picked up such a cute puppy. Your luck is incredible.
"Sister, let's give the puppy a name." Shen Qiu suggested.
"It needs a name. It has black fur all over its body and its eyes are round and bright. From now on, we'll call it White Radish."
Shen Qiu: “???” I’ve seen casual people, but I’ve never seen someone so casual.
Gu Jiandong praised, "Shu Yu's name is really nice. From now on, it will be called White Radish."
White radish seemed to like its new name very much. When Gu Jiandong called it, the little guy barked twice.
When Old Lady Shen and her friends came back from work, they saw a black object in the yard. They thought it was something else, but when they looked closer, they realized it was a puppy.
"Whose pup has run into our house?"
Shen Shuyu came out of the house and said, "Grandma, this is the puppy I picked up from the mountains. I want to raise it."
"Shu Yu, raising a dog will waste a lot of food, why don't you consider it?" It's not that Zhang Cuicui doesn't want to raise a dog for her eldest niece, she has thought about it a lot. Having another dog at home is like having another mouth to feed. No matter what, the dog must be fed, otherwise it cannot be kept alive. But she feels sorry for the food.
