I Can Talk to Cats - Chapter 67
The spring sunshine is very warm, and it is very comfortable to shine on pedestrians.
The flowers and grass in the green belt are flourishing, and under the blue sky, the street scene with red and willow is pleasing to the eye.
But Ms. Xiao’s mood is completely opposite to today’s weather, melancholy and gloomy, her eyes fixed on the daughter she is holding.
“Yaoyao, look, how good the weather is today.” I was sad, but the young woman’s face did not show any traces, and she gently talked to her daughter with an intimate smile. “The subway station is coming soon. Mom took you to the zoo to see the pandas. Are you happy? ”
The girl led by her was almost eight years old, wearing a cute denim suspender skirt, her hair was carefully braided into two twist braids, and the head and round toe shoes were decorated with small yellow daisies, with which Zhang Yuxue’s cute little face is definitely a delicate and beautiful sentence.
But at this time, the little girl did not respond to her mother’s inquiry, and even her facial expression did not change. She looked straight ahead with her eyes. There was no interaction except for the inertia of being held forward.
As if she didn’t hear her mother’s voice at all.
But in fact, Ms. Xiao knew that her daughter Yaoyao heard that Yaoyao was in good health, especially after she returned to her family and spent twelve distractions to take care of her.
But what about that?
Physical illness is easy to cure, and psychological illness is difficult to cure.
Thinking of her daughter from a little angel who can dance and laugh to what she looks like this year, Ms. Xiao felt like a knife.
Once again, there was no response. Ms. Xiao just pursed her lips and pressed down the bitterness of her eyes, and then continued to talk to her daughter: “Yaoyao doesn’t like the zoo, so ignore her mother? Then let’s go to the botanical garden, OK? I told your mom and dad that you like the botanical garden in spring, because there is a small daisy flower garden that you like. Now you talk to mom, mom will take you there, OK? ”
There was no answer, no eye contact, the little girl just stopped as the mother stopped, and nothing happened.
“Yaoyao still doesn’t speak? Then mother just went to see the giant panda when you didn’t want to go?” Ms. Xiao took the child’s hand and continued walking slowly, “The weather is so good today, as soon as you can see A lot of animals. Not only pandas, but also lions, monkeys, ostriches, beautiful flower peacocks … Yaoyao, have n’t you been there for a long time? ”
Today I am still singing a one-man show, but some things are done year after year, and I am actually used to it after a long time. So Ms. Xiao continued to talk to her daughter.
“What kind of animal does Yaoya like to see the most? When we arrive at the zoo, we will be the first to see it. Let my mother guess, is it a giant panda? Or a big tiger? Or is it … Yaoyao !?”
Before the words were finished, a small hand that she obediently held by her suddenly took the initiative to break free, always walking like a daughter of a quiet doll and running forward.
After a brief panic, Ms. Xiao immediately caught up.
Later, she saw her daughter pushing the door into a shop.
A little girl who didn’t follow the adult suddenly rushed into the tea house, sterilized, without the shoe film or the cover, and ran directly to the window area, pulling the glass wall and shouting at the window, instantly alarmed everyone in the tea house.
what’s the situation?
The series of actions of the little girl were too fast and too sudden, so that the nearest Song Xinmin did not react.
“Meow! Huang Meow!” She was still vigorously patting the glass partition, her voice was very high, and the sound of the slap was also very loud, which directly scared all the cats in the window.
“Children, you can’t do this …” Song Xinmin immediately walked over to stop, and when he was about to approach the little girl, the shop doorbell rang again.
“Yaoyao!” It was Ms. Xiao who hurried over.
A few minutes later, Yaoyao was held in his arms by his mother and sat face-to-face with the store manager in a corner of the tea house.
“I’m sorry, boss, my Yaoyao has caused you trouble, and I don’t know that she suddenly broke in today.” With her daughter in her arms, Ms. Xiao kept apologizing and saying hello.
And Yaoyao, who is being hugged, is staring at the orange cat in the arms of the store manager. The little girl is silent and staring at the cat with an expressionless face, so Lin Lan can’t help but slightly cover up Live the gentleman’s eyes.
For cats, especially if they were a stray cat earlier, looking directly at their eyes means framing. Although the gentleman wo n’t reach out because of her high probability of training, in the face of a child who is obviously not normal, Mr. Lin thinks it is better just in case.
Her action made Yaoyao very dissatisfied. The little girl’s expressionless face showed signs of crying. She reached out and tried to cross the table to grab the gentleman: “Huang Meow! Mine! Give it back to me!”
If it were not for her mother who had long known that her daughter would be out of the situation and hugged her firmly in advance, the gentleman might have been grabbed a piece of skin.
“Wow–” Yaoyao didn’t achieve his goal, and the cry broke out suddenly. His words and deeds were very arrogant. Lin Lan thought that if her mother gave her a hug, the child might immediately roll over in situ.
“Yaoyao, don’t do that! That’s not your Huang Miao, it’s someone else’s house!” Ms. Xiao spent a lot of energy before finally reassuring her daughter.
The child’s crying caused Wang Jiayang and Song Xinmin in the teahouse to come close together unconsciously. It was because there was no guest this afternoon, otherwise they might all be scared away.
But even so, these two waiters who are actually graduates of famous universities are frowning and staring closely at the little girl.
“This … wife, your child’s performance … seems to be autism?” Missy said at this moment.
Song Xinmin didn’t speak, but also showed his approval.
Shouting people should not, not responding to sight, not communicating with others, focusing only on themselves, or being a child … in their cognition is very consistent with autism, that is, the manifestation of childhood autism.
“No! My daughter is not autistic!” Ms. Xiao shook her shoulders, holding her daughter to refute almost conditionedly. “Yaoyao is not an autistic child. She was only stimulated for a while and closed herself!”
Obviously refuted, but the mother still shed tears.
“My children were all good until they were six years old … they all blamed me, they blamed me and my child’s father for being busy with business and neglecting to take care of her, so that Yaoyao became like this …”
Perhaps it was anxious to explain that Yaoyao was a healthy child with no problems, or maybe she wanted to talk to someone. Ms. Xiao told Lin Lan three of her family’s experiences.
The Xiaos and their husbands opened a store to do business. They were a foreign couple who came to Xicheng to work hard. At this age, where there is no small deposit, there are children who can slack off. After the couple opened the store, they were dedicated to earning money to support the family. Although they love children very much, time is always not enough. If you want money, you can’t spend more time with your children. If you want to stay with your children, you can’t earn more money. The couple planned to make money for the future of the family.
Therefore, Yaoyao grew up in free range.
Although her parents didn’t accompany her very much, because she opened her shop very close to her parents, the little girl was not uncomfortable. In addition, there were many neighbors and children around him who could play together. The childhood was very pleasant and the personality was very lively.
But perhaps it was because the over-breeding was too much, and then it caused an unexpected tragedy.
One day a year ago, Yaoyao hung out with neighboring children. The gang of bear children ran to a nearby abandoned construction site. When it was dark, other children came back, but Yaoyao did not come back.
The Xiaos and his wife were almost anxious that night. They took their neighbors and even called the police to search for three hours in the night. They finally found Yao Yao who was still trembling in a coma.
Since then, the lively little girl has never spoken again because of this fright. She closed herself off and ignored the outside world.
“I really regret it. I regret why I have been busy making money but I haven’t taken care of Yaoyao!” Ms. Xiao whimpered mournfully. “If you pay more attention to the sky at that time, look at the sky and ask your neighbors more, As for leaving Yaoyao alone in the horrible abandoned well for so long, she was only six years old! ”
Now it’s too late to say anything.
“I am no longer busy with business. I go home and accompany Yao Yao wholeheartedly, take care of Yao Yao, and no longer let my daughter encounter a trace of accidents. But what about it, it is too late …”
The sad mother confessed, and the three young people on the opposite side felt unconsciously sad, but Yao Yao, who was held in her arms, did not respond at all. It seemed that because the memory of that night was too scary, she included fear in order to protect herself. All emotions inside are blocked out.
However, the child is now reacting to the gentleman.
Lin Lan thought so, and took away the hand that covered the cat’s head. The gentleman showed his face, and the expressionless child began to cry excitedly: “Meow! Huang Meow!”
Once again, the little girl stretched out her hands and made a move towards the orange cat in her mother’s confinement.
Lin Lan watched her behavior, and suddenly recalled all the words and deeds she had rushed into the teahouse after sitting down and talking, and her mind flashed.
“Yaoyao, did she meet a cat that night? That cat was very similar to my gentleman, so she misidentified her.” She suddenly said, “Yaoyao who fell into the waste well once I saw it at the wellhead and tried to reach out and hug it many times! ”
It’s good to slap the glass wall, grab a cat over the table, or even try to reach out now, in fact, it’s all about trying to hold the gentleman in his arms. It seemed as though trying to extend her arms under the abandoned well, holding her only hope of spiritual support firmly.
“Cat …?” Ms. Xiao’s tears stunned, her expression caught in her memory, and suddenly she seemed to think of something that was shocking. “It seems … Before we found Yaoyao that night, we really heard a cat crying there. It was still It was called because it kept calling. ”
Speaking of which, she couldn’t help covering her mouth, and her tears couldn’t help falling again.
On that dark and helpless night, it turned out that a cat helped them find the child!
The hidden inside story lasted a year because the child woke up and became sick. Today, because her daughter bumped into a very similar cat, most of them were untied.
“Boss Lin, Lin.” Ms. Xiao wiped her tears and looked at the cat in Lin Lan’s arms as if she saw the hope of curing her daughter. Willing to pay! ”
