Chapter 316: Old Dog: About Loyalty (2)
【Wang——】
I always feel that as long as I don't leave, I can still smell the scent of my master.
Another week passed and Xiao Zhang could no longer sit still. He took a short video and posted it online, explaining under the video how he and the little white dog in the video met.
The video is just the original video, it has not been carefully edited and did not cause much heat.
However, Xiao Zhang wisely brought the detailed address.
It would also be great if there are local dog lovers willing to adopt the dog.
Someone from the local animal rescue station saw it, sent a private message to verify the situation, and rushed over to take the dog away, which was so thin that it looked like nothing but bones.
【Wang——】
(?Д?≡?Д?)
The dog is confused? The dog is panicked. What are these people doing?
Xiao Zhang really didn't expect that he would see the familiar dog again at the door of the funeral home early the next morning.
[Hey, why are you acting like a stubborn donkey? ! ]
【Wang——】
Xiao Zhang felt his pocket and found that it was almost noon and he had nothing to eat.
He called the animal rescue station, and the person on the other end laughed and cursed at him, but came back half an hour later and took away the dog that was too tired to get up.
Two or three days later, the funny and tear-jerking incident happened again.
Xiao Zhang asked his leader, "Brother Ma, how about we keep it? It can also help us guard the house at night. This dog is really humane!"
Mago shook his head.
【Wang——】
There was a mixed smell at the entrance of the funeral home, and the owner's scent could no longer be smelled...
As the saying goes, three times the truth never happens. This time, the guy from the animal rescue station put a rope around the dog's neck and never untied it for eating, sleeping, or bathing.
The dogs in the rescue center need to be sent out for foster care.
As a non-profit civil organization, labor, venues, and animal medical treatment are all huge expenses, while food supply is nothing.
Cats and dogs that have been checked and have no major problems are placed in one place for caring people to choose and take away.
【Wang——】
I huddled unwillingly in the corner, ignoring the teasing sounds coming from outside the iron railings.
[Eh? Mr. Chen, that white dog looks very familiar to me, is he a little internet celebrity?! ]
A man in a baseball cap asked the staff at the rescue station.
The rescue station does not have a general manager. It is the man's habit to add "General" to his surname. He is a salesman and is extremely good at the art of language.
[Well, it’s the dog that was guarding the door of the funeral home. It refused to leave even after its owner was cremated. It’s a loyal dog! ]
[But from the look on its face, it seems like it's not happy to be adopted. ]
[…It depends on fate.]
As the two men talked, their eyes shifted away several times and then quietly fell back on the white dog. Seeing that the dog still looked like it wanted to shrink itself and pretend not to exist, the man in the baseball cap gave up.
He finally chose a healthy black dog, just because he and Mr. Chen complained that business was not good this year, the black dog immediately shouted loudly [Wang Wang Wang Wang Wang! ]
The voice was unusually loud and the tail was wagging particularly happily.
He felt it was extremely auspicious and was so delighted that he held the black dog's head in his arms and rubbed it with joy.
[That’s it! Hahaha! ]
Of course Mr. Chen had no objection, and both parties signed the agreement. The man in the baseball cap promised to take good care of the black dog and not abandon or abuse it.
It's a gentleman's contract.
After all, conscience is something that you either have or don’t have.
The black dog's eyes were wet, and it stretched out its big tongue to lick the palm of its new owner. It rubbed its big head back and forth on the man's trouser legs, remembering the smell on his body. Hmm, it was a faint smell of tobacco, a little pungent...
A man and a dog left in the envious or numb eyes of their peers.
【Dabai! Dabai! 】
It was not until he was slapped on the forehead that a certain Wang Baitu Dog, Lucky Defa, looked up in surprise.
[I’m calling you, Dabai! Do you still want to go back to the funeral home? No way. I heard from Xiao Zhang that a large section of the road over there collapsed due to a large truck. We need to repair the road…]
The man felt bored when he saw that Dabai ignored him. He touched the puppy that came up to him and asked for a touch and a hug, then shook his head and got up to do other things.
A heart needs to be divided into countless petals. If you never get a response, you will naturally feel tired.
Time flies, from May to September.
A woman wearing full sun protection gear and whose face could not be seen came to the rescue station, holding a little boy of three or four years old.
The little boy ran back and forth outside the iron railings a few times, pointing at the corner with his little hand.
【Mom, I want it! 】
【Prosperous? 】
I was sleeping soundly when suddenly the rope on my neck was pulled.
My eyes were hazy and I looked at Lao Chen blankly.
[Dabai, this place is going to be demolished, and the shelter will be closed at the end of the month. Just go with them. You are still so young, what's the point of living a muddle-headed life?!]
The little boy stared at the tall Old Chen eagerly, jumping up and down as if trying to reach his hand through the gap in the railing.
However, his mother took out her cell phone, flipped to a video on her WeChat Moments, confirmed it with Lao Chen, and pointed at the white dog.
Lao Chen nodded as he watched the video.
[Yes, yes, I brought him back from the funeral home, and the date you mentioned is correct, it was those days.]
The woman sighed, nodded, and rubbed her son's hairy head.
[Xingxing, go ahead, let's take Lucky home. ]
It turns out the little boy's name is Xingxing.
【Wang?! 】
I seem to have tinnitus suddenly, why is there someone called Lucky? !
I looked over in surprise and suspicion. The woman was wearing a sun-protective suit that covered her from head to ankles in the sun. I couldn't tell who she was, but I seemed to have heard that voice somewhere before.
[Mom, isn’t Lucky Dad’s dog? Why do you call it Lucky?! ]
[Silly boy, it's your father's Lucky, it just grew up! ]
【Wang——】
I, who had been called Dabai for several months, burst into tears, stood up abruptly, and walked to his side without waiting for the little boy to come over.
The two of us, standing up, are about the same height.
The little boy was not afraid at all. He hugged the big dog's head affectionately and even wanted to turn over and ride on the dog's back.
【Lucky! Lucky! Dad’s lucky! 】
After Old Chen explained all the precautions for raising a dog, he watched the mother and son leave with Dabai with a worried look on his face.
Oh, no, Dabai has a name, it’s Lucky!
Lucky followed the person who was suspected to be the owner's wife and children back to their home.
At first, I was highly suspicious, until I saw a thick photo album on the little boy's desk, which recorded his photos from infancy to last month.
Among them, the man who held him in his arms and smiled foolishly when he was a baby, wasn’t he…
【Wang——】
The dog wants to cry! No, it is already crying, howling.
[Oh my, our Lucky really still remembers his daddy, what a good dog! ]
The woman leaned against the door, whispering softly.
It turned out that in early May, the woman suddenly received a huge sum of money in her Alipay account. Because the money was deposited into her account without her actively clicking to receive it, the woman did not find out until a few days later.
When I called again, I was told that the other party's phone was turned off.
The two divorced peacefully and did not commit any principled issues. People who love each other are not necessarily suitable to live together through the daily necessities of life.
As soon as the divorce took place, the woman returned to Australia with her children.
Oh, they met in Australia, one was an exchange student and the other was a local Chinese.
The disparity in economic status is real, and love is also real.
【Prosperous! 】
The woman and the little boy often talked to their father on the phone or via video, so Lucky had a vague impression of her voice.
She hadn't been able to make phone calls for several months, so she contacted other relatives and friends in China and learned the time of her ex-husband's death. She looked through the transfer records and burst into tears. She immediately applied for a visa to return.
I didn't expect that after we parted, we would be separated by life and death.
She had been to the cemetery before. It was very deserted. The person in the photo was much thinner than he was more than a year ago, but still had the same silly smile.
【Wang——】
【Hahahahaha! 】
The little boy laughed out loud when Lucky licked the palm of his hand.
The woman's wandering thoughts were brought back by the sound of laughter. She couldn't help but take a video and send it to the WeChat of the person who would never reply again.
A month later, after completing various formalities, the woman boarded a plane with her son and Lucky and returned to Australia.
The moon abroad is not rounder than the moon at home.
Year after year.
Xingxing is in the fifth grade of elementary school. Both his parents are top students, and his grades are far ahead of those in the class.
Australia is a vast country with a sparse population. The estate where the woman lives is not very big, but it is far away from her neighbors.
[Lucky, there are kangaroos next door, so don’t get into the fence over there! Also, keep your eyes on the stars, and don’t go into the water without an adult, just in case there are crocodiles.]
The woman felt relieved when she saw the dog nodding obediently.
Originally there was an elderly couple living next door, but starting last year, they somehow rented the house to a group of young people who started raising a lot of wild animals in the backyard.
The woman couldn't do anything about it, so she could only repeatedly remind them not to enter other people's homes easily.
It's no use just telling your own good baby. Kangaroos are aggressive and like to jump, so the fence is useless to them.
Xingxing didn't go into the water to swim, but Lucky did.
【Prosperous? 】
Damn, there seems to be a kangaroo in the river. The water is up to its neck. We have to save it!
[Science: Kangaroos are not as cute as the legend says. They are herbivores, but they are aggressive, cunning, and good at using tricks to lure animals into the water and drown them by pressing their heads, just for the sake of momentary pleasure.]
Poor Lucky, when Xingxing found him two days later, he was already swollen with blisters...
Lucky not lucky.
Good old dog, dead!
