Papa Fox's Trouble

Chapter 16 Dad, Is He Uncle or Aunt?

When Father Fox finally climbed to the front of his monastery halfway up the mountain with Gao Jersey on his back, Father Fox put Gao Jersey down in relief.At this moment, he was as tired as a dog, with his hands on his knees and his head bowed, panting heavily, almost sticking out his tongue to exhale.

Gao Jersey looked at the tired Papa Fox apologetically.There are many stone steps on the mountain. He broke his leg and couldn't walk at all. It took him three hours to walk up the whole way with Father Fox on his back.

Father Fox is light and thin, with a height of only about 1.7 meters. Gao Jersey is a big man of 1.8 meters [-]. Although he is not a strong and muscular man, he is also a slender, muscular adult man, and his weight is not light. .If it weren't for Father Fox's habit of walking in the mountains and his physical strength, ordinary people really wouldn't be able to carry Gao Jersey up the mountain.But even so, it took Father Fox almost three hours to get home.It was already dark by this time.

After the father fox breathed a sigh of relief, he quickly took out the key to open the courtyard door.Because he could already hear the cubs scratching behind the door.

As soon as the door opened, three small black shadows jumped out from the yard, and with a flick of their hind legs, they rushed straight into Father Fox's arms.

Standing behind Father Fox, Gao Zexi suddenly saw three little black shadows rushing towards him, and couldn't help but change his face, exclaiming: "Be careful!"

Then he saw Father Fox catching the three little black shadows in a hurry, and Gao Zexi was about to break out in a cold sweat, fearing that the little animal who didn't know if it was a cat or a dog would catch and bite Father Fox.

Unexpectedly, the three black shadows fluttering in Father Fox's arms let out pitiful whimpers at the next moment: "Wow..."

"Don't cry, don't cry, dad is back, don't cry!" Father Fox's voice sounded distressed.

"Daddy is bad! You won't come back when it's dark!" Xiaoyu hiccupped while crying.

Stone and Caocao burst into tears, wailing endlessly.

Gao Zexi was dumbfounded, but Father Fox couldn't care less about him at the moment, he put all his attention on the cubs in his arms, stroking their backs and coaxing them, while walking into the yard: " Dad is back, dad is back, don't cry! Dad will come back sooner next time..."

"It's dark, I'm afraid..." Xiaoyu cried even more vigorously, "Daddy is a bad person! He clearly said he would go home before dark!"

Caocao and Shitou cried even louder, it was heart-piercing, and the little furry head kept digging into Father Fox's arms, as if digging into it to bury itself, so that it would no longer be afraid .

Father Fox felt extremely guilty, especially when he entered the house and saw that the casserole on the table in the middle was empty. Knowing that the children were starving, he hurriedly put the three cubs on the bed, turned around and went to wash rice and cook. .

The three cubs refused to leave their father, jumped off the bed, and followed him step by step.Father Fox felt ashamed, and he didn't drive them to play as usual, lest they get in the way, but let them follow.

In order to quickly feed the aggrieved fox cubs, father fox chose to make the simplest egg porridge.

While Father Fox was working swiftly, Gao Jersey slowly moved into the kitchen. In the small kitchen, he had a very strong sense of presence. As soon as he entered, he attracted the attention of Father Fox and the three cubs.At this moment, father fox remembered that he had just forgotten the other party at the door.

He hurriedly stood up from the ground, brought up the three fox cubs who were "hanging" on him, and said to Gao Zexi embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Brother Gao, I was too impatient just now? How do you feel now?" ?”

The two little hands held the grass hanging from the father's neck, the stones and the small fish hanging from the left and right arms of the fox father, and at the same time turned to look at Gao Jersey at the door, his eyes were bright and full of curiosity.

For the fox cubs, the stranger Gao Jersey is nothing more than a "giant", or a strange giant. They have seen people down the mountain from afar before, but this is the first time they have had close contact with humans, especially Gao. Due to serious injuries, Jersey is now pale, walking around, and the white bandage covering the wound is still stained with red blood... In short, in the eyes of the fox cubs who don't know much about humans, Gao Jersey is such a strange "thing".

Gao Zexi was looked up by four pairs of similar eyes, which should have been full of charm, but were looked at with concern at the same time. For a moment, he forgot what he wanted to say. He was startled for a moment, and then whispered Said: "I'm fine, I just came in to see you..." Is there any need for help.

"Ah!" Father Fox yelled suddenly, grabbed a handful of rice from the rice jar, scooped up water, rinsed it, opened the lid of the pot, and sprinkled the rice in.At the end, wiped sweat on his forehead: "I forgot to cook your portion! Fortunately, you came in and reminded me!"

"Father!" Xiaoyu suddenly pointed at Gao Zexi and shouted, "Who is he?"

"He's Brother Gao..." Father Fox smiled halfway through, the corners of his upturned mouth slowly lowered, "...he's a friend of Father's."

"Oh!" Shitou nodded, not knowing what was going on in his little head, "Then dad, is he an uncle or an aunt?"

"Huh~~" Hastily, Xiaoyu turned to look at Big Brother, what does this mean?What are uncles and aunts?

Father Fox was also a little puzzled, but he answered his son's question honestly: "It's uncle."

"Oh!" Shitou nodded, then raised his head, showing a mouthful of millet teeth to Gao Zexi, with a sweet smile, extremely polite: "Hello, Uncle!" After thinking about it, he added: "Uncle, at night good!"

Father Fox felt that this scene seemed familiar, where did he seem to have seen similar conversations? !He thought hard, and always felt that he would think of it right away, but it just happened to be a little bit short.

"Brother, what is uncle?" Cao Cao and Xiao Yu grabbed Shi Shi's clothes and muttered.

"Uncle is..." The stone was stuck, his two faint eyebrows were tangled into a ball, and he choked out a sentence for a long time: "I, I don't know, it's said in the book."

"Huh!!!" Caocao and Xiaoyu were immediately curious, why didn't they know?

These two little guys don't even think about who would scratch and bite Papa Fox's books as if they were toys. They don't even know the words, and they don't know anything about the contents of the books, and they haven't learned anything. For books, their only cognition is: those few square books, page by page, are called "books".

In other words, they just know that books are called "books".Oh, and one more thing, once they scratched and bit the book and dad saw them, dad would get angry and take them to take a bath.

"Which book did you read it?" Father Fox lowered his head and asked Stone.

Shi Shi let go of his father's arm, jumped off the ground, and ran out in a hurry, and soon, he ran back with a book in his mouth, then put the book on the ground, and said triumphantly: " This is it!"

As he spoke, he turned the pages of the book with his paws. With the rustling sound of flipping the book, both the two adults surrounded him, staring curiously at the stone that turned the book and the book in his hand.

Stone turned the book to a certain page.

Father Fox, Xiaoyu, Caocao, and Gao Jersey put their heads together on the top of the book. On the opened page, the words "We are good and polite children" are written on the top. Below are two illustrations, one The sub-illustration is of a woman holding a child, who appears to be talking to a woman of her own age next to her.The note next to it: "Mother's friend." The child who was being led held his head up and said to the woman with a smile on his face: "Good morning, Auntie!"

The content of another illustration is similar, except that the woman has become a man, and the child who is being led also holds his head up and smiles all over his face: "Good evening, uncle!"

Father Fox after reading the illustration: "..."

Grass, small fish: (o_o)

They don't understand it at all.

Gao Zexi smiled happily.He reached out his hand and touched Shi Shi's head unconsciously: "What a smart boy!" Although Gao Zexi had forgotten many things, things similar to common sense were engraved in his mind like instinct, letting him know instinctively , at such a young age, Shitou can understand the meaning of the illustrations in the book and imitate them, which is very rare.
