Chapter 64 The Curious Incident of the Drunken Cat
Jin Huabin held up the wine bowl proudly, and the two of them drank one glass at a time. Half an hour later, after several glasses of wine, they both felt drunk and talked more to each other.
Get up. Director Zhang said: "My dear son-in-law, let me tell you something. After the Mayahi Festival in September, Guifang's visa will expire. When you return to China, you two will choose a date to get married. Dad
I have my eye on a few houses. You can walk around with me tomorrow and decide on one. I have thought about it. After the factory is converted into a company, the name will be Fanghua Stone Sculpture Co., Ltd.. Pick one of your names and the company will be the same sooner or later.
I want to pass it on to you."
With the new house his family bought and the business his family started, am I not a soft-boiled guy? Jin Huabin hurriedly waved his hands and said, "That won't work. The new house is my family's business, and the business was founded by my uncle. It's still the original name."
OK."
"Is it okay? You and Guifang are both only children. Our money belongs to you, so why should you two divide it so clearly? Tomorrow is the weekend and you don't have to go to work. That's it.
Director Zhang held him down and said, "She has been without a mother since she was a child and has a wild temper. You have to treat her well. Both families should do their best when it comes to money and don't make it public."
When Jin Huabin woke up the next morning, he felt a splitting headache. Upon closer inspection, he saw that the bed and room were very similar to his own, but it was not his own, but Zhang Guifang's boudoir. The two had similar interests and even the bedroom layout was similar.
, hence the rapid warming of the relationship. Holding my arms around the bed where my last wife had slept more than half a year ago, I suddenly had a strange feeling, and couldn't help but make an international long distance call: "Dear, you know
Should I sleep there now?"
Her voice came from the other end of the phone and said: "I don't know. Now, I have a technical problem. An overseas Chinese took an ancestral painting, which is Huang Zhou's ink donkey picture. I don't know what colored stone to use."
It's better if you come here. It just so happens that you have your mobile phone and give it to the staff."
"When I dialed the phone, it was a design thing again. There was not even a single word of affection. Are we a married couple or partners?" He got angry and said to her: "You can't say a few words of love first and then respond.
Just guess where I am before we talk about business?"
"You don't need to guess? You are at my house, drinking with my dad and sleeping in my bed." She seemed to be the prophet of Zhuge Liang. After guessing where he would sleep, she added: "Kiss my little baby, you can give me a kiss now."
Please give me some suggestions."
"Where do you mean, little baby?" he asked with a playful smile: "When can we meet again?"
"Rogue, if you keep making sarcastic remarks, I won't pay attention to you anymore." She said angrily: "Be serious and give me some advice."
Hearing her sigh with anger, he quickly changed his words: "Aventurine ink jade is too expensive. My dear, you can try obsidian. The blackness and luster are both good and easy to get."
When flowing water comes into contact with magma, the magma will transform into obsidian. Therefore, this stone is very easy to obtain in nature. Moreover, many obsidians have textures on their surfaces. They can be used in various shapes designed on donkeys with different depths and depths.
With light and shadow, the price is low.
"What is obsidian? Send me a frame. I'll give it a try first. I'll hang up the phone and kiss my husband." After saying this in a stiff tone, she hung up the phone.
After putting down his cell phone, Jin Huabin raised his head and carefully reviewed his performance after drinking last night. He remembered that his father-in-law once told him something strange about the ancient street of Botan, saying that there was a large group of fur cats lying around like drunken people.
On the gravel road. The details are fragmented. When I got up to look at it, my father-in-law-to-be had already served breakfast. When I saw him coming over to greet me, he said: "I'm awake. Your wine is good, but your drinking capacity needs to be improved."
Jin Huabin smiled and asked: "Dad, I want to ask you something. Yesterday I heard you talking about hundreds of cats drunk on the roadside in Botan Ancient Street. What happened?"
"I just heard about this. The villagers rumored that the cobblestone road we built had miracles. There were no mosquitoes, and it also had the function of Drunken Cat and Tiger. It was probably because the high-ranking dragon could predict the weather. It was too impressive in their minds.
It's deep." He took the chopsticks and said to him: "Today is Sunday, why don't we drive over and take a look."
After breakfast, the two of them put their rice bowls into the pot and drove to Botan Ancient Street. A section of the cobblestone road in the ancient street was renovated by them not long ago. The pebble inlays in several doorways were also designed by Jin Huabin. Zhang
The result of the factory director sending people to work. I remember that in order to prevent mosquitoes, Jin Huabin checked the information and planted polygonum and camphor grass, which have mosquito repellent effects. These two plants are not common in Xianju. Why
They were chosen to be different from the characteristics of Gaoqian and Li's houses. Camphor grass is planted on the roadside, and Polygonum spp. is a teng plant that can be attached to the wall and is a three-dimensional mosquito repellent. In the grass, there are indeed more than a dozen
A cat is lying inside, rolling around or sleeping soundly like a drunk person.
What's going on? Jin Huabin patted his head and knew why. Mutian Polygonum is also called cat marijuana. Cats will get very excited when they smell, lick or taste the fruit and roll around on the ground.
, it often feels like being coquettish after being drunk, and can even be so exciting that you can bite people. Camphor grass is also called "catnip". After cats eat this grass, they will have hallucinations and look like drunk, hence the name. Later, people called it "drunk".
"Cat" is a metaphor for a person who behaves abnormally after being drunk. Cats are aloof animals that seem to be indifferent to everything, but when they smell catnip, they will become so happy that their eyes blur, they rub their bodies, and they roll around on the floor.
....The original arrogance is gone. Cats are so addicted to catnip because the chemicals it releases will anesthetize the cat's nervous system, just like heroin and morphine intoxicate humans. These two plants are more
Mosquito repellent effect. When he selected them, he only considered the mosquito repellent effect and ignored the intoxicating effect on cats.
Cats are particularly fond of these plants, mainly because they contain a chemical called nepetalactone. When inhaled by cats, they bind to receptors on the nose, thereby stimulating brain neurons and activating those involved in regulating reward.
And the nervous system of euphoric response makes cats excited. Not only cats, but also feline lynxes, leopards, tigers, and lions can easily succumb to this strong aromatic smell. Once they smell this strong aroma
The smell, the originally calm blood of cats was suddenly filled with "happy hormones" endorphins. So they rubbed their heads enthusiastically, rolled over, licked, and indulged themselves in it.
Botan Ancient Street is one of the ancient town scenic spots promoted by the county government. Tourists gather only if there are legends and stories. Jin Huabin gently told his father-in-law about this. The two of them did not explain the matter to anyone and replied silently.
