Chapter 40: I am a fortune teller 03

In the early morning of the next day, the sky was faintly bright. You Xu woke up early and heard the boy's even breathing. She did not move and nestled quietly in his arms.
After a long time, the boy moved, and Yu Xu felt that he was awake, so he rubbed his head against his chest.
The boy touched her head, sat up holding her, and smoothed her again and again. They stayed quietly for a while, the boy touched her belly, and then gave her a straw like yesterday. After surrounding a small nest, I went out.
After waiting for a while, Yush stood up, circled the room, and found the small hole where the mouse got in yesterday. The hole was blocked by the boy with straw.
You Xu used her mouth with claws to remove the straw. The hole was a bit small and the mouse could easily drill back and forth, but she had difficulty drilling. Fortunately, the ground was soft soil, and there was no hard rock. earth.
After planing for a long time, it was considered that the hole was enlarged, and Yu Xu drilled it, which happened to be stuck in the position of the back waist and hind legs. She drilled forward desperately, not knowing how much hair she rubbed, before she managed to get out.
The snow outside has stopped, the sky and the earth are all white, there are layers of snow on the branches, and there are large and small piles of snow everywhere, with deep and shallow footprints.
Yush was a little slippery while walking on the snow. She found that the boy's cabin was in a very remote position with no neighbors around. This made the cabin a bit abrupt in the snow.
She didn't know where to go, so she walked around to the door and followed the boy's footsteps. When she walked to the back, she found that his footprints were gone, so she had to continue walking in this direction.
While walking, Yush looked around and noted the path she passed. Later, she noticed a low-lying place on the side of the road with many branches blocking it, but she found a frozen lake.
She walked down this small slope, passing through the branches, and some of the unbearable snow on the branches hit her. She was so cold that she shook her hair and shook the snow off her body.
The surface of the frozen lake was as flat as a mirror, and Yu Xu slipped his feet twice on it. After he stopped, he walked more carefully.
She saw an old man wearing a hat who was fishing by the lake. He made a slap-sized hole on the lake, hooked the bait into it, and sat on a small wooden bench and waited quietly.
Yush walked to him and saw that there were two big fish and a small fish in his bucket. The old man saw a cat approaching him, thinking she was going to eat it, and waved her away.
Yush had to go aside. She looked at her paws and tried to plan on the ice. After a long time, she didn't even have a notch.
She had to give up and wait silently.
The sky gradually darkened, and the old man caught a bucket of fish and left.
Yuxu immediately went to the place where the old man had fished before, looked inside, and saw the shadow of a fish faintly in the clear water, she squatted beside this opening.
The sky was getting darker again, and only the shadows of the surrounding trees could be seen.
Although she has hair, in the ice and snow, on the extremely cold lake, the feeling of cold invades the flesh and bones, and her whole body is stiffened by the cold.
You Xu later realized that she was too close to this hole, and the fish didn't dare to get in when they found her.
She took four or five steps back, ready to sprint and bite at any time.
Finally, when a fish came out of the lake, Yush rushed over. Before his paw touched the fish, the fish had slipped away.
Next, she failed more than ten times. It was either that she was stiff and didn't rush fast enough, or her feet were slipping, she missed the best time, or she didn't bite decisively enough.
Her body was basically wet with water, and her hair was wet and glued together, and it was bitingly cold when the wind blew.
Yuxu was so cold that she couldn't feel it, but she couldn't give up. It's not easy to find food at this time, and this Hukouzi will freeze again tomorrow.
Thinking of the boy scratching the flintstone again and again, thinking of his skinny body, Yu Xu closed his eyes and started squatting again.
There is a half-round bright moon on the horizon, silver brilliance is scattered on the ice lake, and the snow is slightly shining. In the scene that quietly becomes a painting, a small wild cat keeps repeating its biting movements.
"Wow--" Water splashed.
Yu Xu gritted her teeth and shook the water from her face. She finally caught a crucian carp. Although she slapped a bit bigger, she got some money.
She held the fish and walked back along the original route.
It didn't take long for her to feel tired and sour in her mouth. To be honest, if she doesn't have hands, she always bites with her mouth, which is really a bit tired.
It started to snow again, and the wind mixed with snow patted her damp hair, and Yush felt like she was about to become an ice sculpture.
About half an hour later, Yu Xu finally saw the cabin, and vaguely saw a man squatting on the ground in a ball on the small road outside the door.
Moonlight fell on him, stretching his lonely shadow very long.
You Xu felt that Duan Min was waiting for her to go home under the street light, and her heart palpitated, so she speeded up and walked over.
The boy's exposed face, hands and feet were red and blue with cold. When he saw the kitten running back, the world-weary gray under his eyes faded and his eyes lighted slightly.
He picked up the kitten, swept her away the snow with his clothes, wiped the water, and carried her into the house.
Yu Xu was stunned, so he was really waiting for her, waiting for her cat?
"Meow—(are you waiting for me
"Meow-(why not go in and wait
You Xu continued to educate him heartbrokenly: "Meow, meow!!! (What if you catch the wind and cold
The boy only thought she was cold, and touched her head, holding her tighter.
Yush: I hate the language barrier.
What she didn't know was that the boy didn't see her when he came back in the evening, thinking she was gone, and was afraid that she would be hungry if she couldn't find food, or found her own home, and would never come back.
He thought he couldn't have anything and didn't deserve it.
Like fate, those close to him will leave.
But it came back. It was just hungry to find food. It didn't want to leave him. Even if it didn't understand this, it would be fine if it came back.
The boy put her in the placket, Yush showed his head from his collar, and wanted to give him the fish, but seeing how busy he was, she continued to hold the fish sourly.
The boy was busy for a long time before he succeeded in setting up the fire. You Xu thought he was going to cook fish, but he held her in the palm of his hand and approached the fire to help her dry the wet fur.
Yush bent his head and put the fish in his hand. He pushed the fish to her mouth again, and Yush shook his head and pushed the fish to him.
The boy was taken aback for a while. He didn’t recover for a while. He knew that the kitten was hungry and didn’t eat anything. The return is...for him.
A place in my heart suddenly felt warm, like a warm wind blowing on an ice sheet that no one can reach.
A person was enveloped in malicious ice, and just a little bit, still from the warmth of a kitten, pried the layer of ice open.
"Ah...ah..."
He hadn't spoken for a long time, couldn't say a complete sentence at all, and could only make some vague voices.
Yush listened carefully for a while, he said too hard, and his voice was hoarse and hoarse, it was difficult to understand what he wanted to express.
She had to push the fish again, beckoning him to eat quickly.
The boy picked up the iron bowl, put the fish in, cut the fish open with a rusty knife, removed the internal organs, and scraped the fish scales, finally poured some snow, and put it on the fire to cook.
He wiped his hands, reached up to the fire to warm him up, and hugged her to warm herself.
The snow on his body melted, and the cat's hair was slowly dried. Finally, Yu Xu stopped shaking and his body stiffness eased.
In a short while, the fish soup is also cooked, and with the steaming heat, a light fragrance drifts out.
The boy rummaged through the straw and found a broken porcelain bowl and a pair of poor chopsticks. He used the chopsticks to divide the fish in half, put half of the fish in the porcelain bowl, and poured some soup into it.
You Xu thought that the little porcelain bowl belonged to her, and as soon as he stretched his head over, the boy put the iron bowl in front of her.
She paused and looked up at him.
He touched her head and made a difficult and vague voice: "Ahhh..."
Yush still didn't understand him, and probably guessed that he wanted her to eat more.
She lowered her head and took a sip. Although there was no salt, it was better than the fish's tenderness and good taste. Some of the hot soup entered the stomach and quickly spread the warmth to the limbs.
The chill was slightly driven away, and the body gradually warmed up.
The snow outside the house is getting bigger and bigger, and it is drifting freely by the wind, the pitch black silence is with the silver moonlight.
Sparks burst from the fire in the cabin, and the boy looked down at the sleeping kitten in his arms.
He didn't know how soft his eyes were, nor did he notice the corners of his lips.
