Chapter 1692: Witness
Translator: 549690339
The next morning, little celery passed by the Pet Shop again.
Today, the owner and his wife were not standing at the door, but busy inside the shop.
After a while, the middle-aged woman noticed a small figure standing at the door. She turned around and found that it was little celery, who always appeared on time from Monday to Friday.
“Good Morning,” She waved at little celery.
“Good Morning,” Little celery also waved her hand, but she didn’t run away as usual.
The middle-aged woman pondered the child’s thoughts and immediately understood. After all, she also had a child.
“Do you want to see the lop-eared rabbit?” She asked with a smile.
“It ... It didn’t run away today?” Little celery racked her brain for an excuse.
“Ah, he hasn’t run away yet. Do you want to come in and take a look?” She invited him again.
Little celery hesitated and didn’t say anything.
“I ... I don’t want to buy pets.”
“It’s okay, it’s fine if you don’t buy it. ” “Just take it as a thank you for helping us stop it yesterday,” she added with a smile.
Little celery told herself in her heart, I’m just going in to see the rabbit, I won’t talk to them, and I’m not going with strangers.
“Then ... Alright.”
Little celery walked into the shop carefully, looking curiously at the decorations and all kinds of pets in the shop. She glanced at the middle-aged couple from time to time, ready to run away at any time.
The middle-aged couple acted as if she didn’t exist. They continued to work skillfully while chatting.
Little celery saw the lop-eared rabbit in the cage. At this time, the Pet Shop seemed to be divided by pet species. Next to the lop-eared rabbit, she also saw a hamster, which was also a rodent pet, and it was also very cute.
The lop-eared rabbit and the hamster were all gathered on one side of the cage, as if they were anxiously waiting for breakfast. There were fresh vegetables and nuts outside the cage, but they could not eat them.
She turned around and looked at the middle-aged couple.
“If you want to feed them, then go ahead. It’ll save us some trouble.” They said.
It was still the same saying, a child’s mind was too easy to guess.
Seeing the lop-eared rabbit and hamster finish their breakfast in satisfaction, little celery was as happy as if she had just eaten a delicious meal.
“Aiya! Terrible! We’re going to be late!” She looked at her watch and was shocked to realize that she had been here for too long.
“Hurry up and go to school. You can see rabbits any day.” The middle-aged couple said with a smile.
“Bye ... Bye!”
Little celery ran out of the store in a panic and ran to the school. After a few steps, she suddenly remembered something and stopped to look back.
“Qi ... Pet shop.”
There were too many strokes in the second character, so she couldn’t recognize it. However, the teacher taught new Chinese characters every day, so she would definitely be able to recognize it in the future.
During dinner that day, her mother wasn’t as distracted as she was yesterday. When little celery told her about the interesting things that happened at school during the day, she also talked and laughed. It seemed that she had done a good job yesterday.
“Mom ...” Little celery took a sip of the soup and peeked at her mother’s face nervously.”Lop-eared rabbit ... It seems very cute.”
“No, you can ‘t.” Her mother seemed to have guessed what she was thinking and rejected her immediately.”We don’t have pets at home. It will affect your studies and it’s very troublesome to take care of you. The most important thing for students is their studies. If you want to have one, you can have one when you grow up.”
It was a very common reason. Basically, when all children begged to buy a pet but were rejected by their parents, they would hear the same reason, even the wish they made was the same, as if they could do anything when they grew up ... After all, parents all hoped that their children would become Dragons and phoenixes. Since ancient times, raising pets could be categorized as a waste of time.
“Oh.”
If it was Xu Zhuang Zhuang, he would probably lie on the ground and roll around until his wish was fulfilled. He would promise that having a pet would not affect his studies, just like buying a computer would not affect his studies ... But little celery did not say anything more and just drank the soup silently.
Fortunately, she would stop by the Pet Shop for a while every day when she went to school and personally feed the lop-eared rabbits and hamsters. As for the time after school at night, she had more time, but there were always other customers in the Pet Shop, so she just quietly looked outside the shop, looking forward to the short time of the next morning.
One day, the daily cycle was suddenly interrupted without warning.
That day, the Pet Shop, which would open early in the morning, was not open.
Little celery stood outside the rolled-up curtain and waited for a while. She looked up at the second floor. Did the owner and his wife sleep in?
She waited and waited, but there was no movement in the store.
Class was about to start and she couldn’t wait any longer. She could only run away regretfully.
After school in the afternoon, she passed by the Pet Shop and found that the door was still closed.
The next day, the third day, the fourth day ... As long as it was a school day, little celery would come to the door and wait, but the Pet Shop never opened, and little celery didn’t see the lop-eared rabbit and hamster again.
Every afternoon, when she ran past the Pet Shop, she saw some old grandpas and grandmas pointing at the Pet Shop and talking in low voices. She couldn’t hear what they were saying, but she felt that they were sighing.
For the past few days, she was in a bad mood. Her mother thought it was strange, thinking that she was sick or bullied by her classmates. But she took her temperature and found it normal. She contacted the school teacher, but no one bullied little celery. The teacher also noticed that little celery was a little depressed, so she thought that something was wrong with her family.
However, little celery’s depression didn’t last long, because the Pet Shop was open again. Although the owners of the shop were no longer the kind middle-aged couple, the shop door was still open for her.
The re-opening pet shop had changed a lot, not only in the layout and furnishings, but also in the people.
Since the Auntie and uncle were no longer around, the new brother store manager had strange ideas almost every day. When she came every day, she felt that the Pet Shop was different from yesterday.
She saw with her own eyes that there were more and more staff in the Pet Shop, from two silly staff brothers to the cashier sister who was good at drawing, and then to sister fish who always stayed with fish ...
She saw with her own eyes that there were more and more pets in the Pet Shop. There were all kinds of cute cats and dogs, and there were also strange-shaped fish ...
She saw with her own eyes that there were more and more customers in the Pet Shop. When school ended in the afternoon, the shop was often crowded, and sometimes there was even a line outside.
There were also a few unusual cats, dogs, and birds, all of which appeared in the Pet Shop like magic.
She had witnessed all these changes with her own eyes, earlier than anyone else.
More importantly, there were more and more laughter in the shop.
Little celery liked to stay in the Pet Shop. She still missed the old owner couple, but she liked the current manager and staff more.
Ah, there was one more thing. The teacher had taught her new Chinese characters, and she had finally matched the pronunciation with the shape. She could now write the name of the shop on her map.
The second word of the shop’s name was read as “Yuan.”
