Cat Part 5

Turn out that the production team is hell bent on torturing the guest.

The second day’s task is to dig lotus roots.

(T/N : Lotus root can be made into delicacy. Below is a picture of how it usually got farmed, however for this chapter they don’t actually dive that deep, I just picked this one so you can see the hard-core one [lol] and an example of the food made from lotus root.)

The pond is drained to reveal a swampy, submerged mud floor, the owners have to put on their rubber aprons and long rain boots and go down to dig up enough roots. And they have to “carry” their pet babies with them.

Fang Daichuan and the rapper are happy.

Beta is small and doesn’t take up much space, just stuff it in your pocket. Although the rapper’s black snake is large, he can wrap it around the body. The remaining three dogs and pigs were not so lucky. After Fang Daichuan and the rapper already dug half a basket of lotus roots, the three people just found a plank and pushed their pets onto the board with difficulty, dragging them to the centre of the pond.

Fang Daichuan was already covered in mud. The cold mud poured into his clothes along the seams of his rain boots, and his feet almost froze off. He had never dug lotus roots before, so he didn’t know that the branches and vines underneath were so intertwined that it took a lot of effort and broke several of them.

“Holy shit, how do you dig so fast?!” Fang Daichuan took a casual glance and in such a short time, the small boat beside the rapper was already full.

The rapper said with a smile, “I’m from Hubei, my family has several acres of root ponds, I’ve been digging them since I was a kid, how hard can this stuff be for me?” He wiped the mud from the root and threw it into the boat, pushing it towards the finish line, saying as he went, “The last one will be thrown into the mud pond, so hurry up!”

Then he walked away gloating and laughing.

Movie Emperor Guan acted as a fisherman before and he had dug lotus roots when he was shooting. He was rusty for a while when he first started but he quickly remembered the trick and got into it. His family, Da Yong, was not very courageous. It lay down on the plank and didn’t cause any trouble. It seemed that it wouldn’t jump down.

Su Qian is a strong woman. She feels that it is distracting, so she takes off her rubber gloves, rolls her sleeves up to her shoulders and touches the lotus roots in the mud with her bare hands, while her little piggy is puffing and panting, eager to get down into the mud and give her a hand.

The young lady who raised the Border collie was wearing a beautiful white skirt and was hopelessly stained with mud. The girl’s strength is small, and her team’s position is that of an innocent and lovely literary girl. The girl is concerned about her image, she has to pull her pets and for half a day she has bent and tried to, but can’t find a single lotus root. Seeing that she is going to be the bottom, she is close to crying out.

Fang Daichuan looked back and couldn’t bear it any longer. After thinking for a while, he dragged his boat and walked to the two girls.

“Why, you come to send some support?” Su Qian raised his head and smiled at Fang Daichuan.

Without saying a word, Fang Daichuan divided his lotus root into two equal portions, one for Su Qian and the other for the Border collie sister.

Su Qian accepted it casually but the Border girl was moved to tears, however she was afraid of backlash from netizens, so she whispered: “This is not good…”

Fang Daichuan shook his hand: “It is fine, take it, anyway, I’m so dirty, I don’t care if I get to throw in the mud. I can just wash it. You dig slowly, don’t worry.”

After he finished speaking, he didn’t stay, turned his head and left, silently bent over and continuing to dig lotus roots.

The assistant is not someone who doesn’t know how to return a favour. Standing by the pond and making a phone call directly to the most expensive sugar water shop in town, ordering hot tea and ginger soup for the entire staff and thoughtfully preparing a number of small gifts and snacks for Fang Daichuan.

(T/N : Raw are [糖水铺;Tángshuǐ pù] and honestly I have no idea what this will be called in English so here is pictures. First is the example of the shop, so yeah, it is like a restaurant whose specialty is sweet stuff and snack? The next is the picture of the menu (example), so yeah, it is all sweet stuff and snacks. And now I am craving sweet things lol.)

Only Beta was unhappy. It jumped out of Fang Daichuan’s arms, jumped on Fang Daichuan’s head and slapped Fang Daichuan on the back of the head, as if scolding him for being a fool.

“Stop beating me, Beta,” Fang Daichuan pleaded feebly, “What should I do if you fall into the mud? The fur will all be shaved!”

Beta ignored his powerless threat, knowing that Fang Daichuan did not dare.

Several drones flew over their heads, capturing Beta’s demeanour and movements above Fang Daichuan’s head. Huo Long Guo has always been rich and powerful, they spare no expense because they are afraid they won’t get the best shot.

However, the drone ended up attracting problems.

The crew will never, even in their wildest dream, that Beta, the mercenary cat who follows its father everywhere, stared at the drones with interest for a while and while Fang Daichuan was deep in the mud digging lotus roots, leapt onto one of the drones.

Fang Daichuan’s heart almost stopped. He thought he was bending over too hard and threw his ancestors into the mud pond. If Beta is wrapped in mud and shaved, Beta will ignore him for the rest of his life.

He bent over to dig in the mud and Border girl pointed to the sky and shouted, “Chuan’er-ge! Your cat!”

As soon as Fang Daichuan raised his head, he almost fell into the mud pond from anger.

Beta stepped on the drone, fur exploding with excitement, no more whining, no more complaining, the whole cat stood happily on the drone, spirited and roaring in the wind, looks like Simba from the Lion King.

Fang Daichuan was trembling with anger, pointed at it and yelled, “Get down!”

Beta scratched its neck: “Meow!”

“I don’t understand what you said, come down!” Fang Daichuan shouted with his neck raised.

Beta: “Meow!”

Fang Daichuan lost.

He is not as good as Li Sinian, he doesn’t speak cat language.

Since that day, Beta aimed at the drone. It loves the feeling of being invincible across the world. When everyone is not paying attention, in the place where everyone is caught off guard, it can use all kinds of incredible angles to jump on the drone and enjoy the feeling of standing on top of the world.

It played like this for three whole days and finished the first episode.

It also subdued two younger brothers.

The handsome Border collie Lilia and the native dog Da Yong.

The two dogs, who are afraid of heights, were overwhelmed by the superb energy and great ambition contained in Beta’s small body. From this weekend onwards, Beta is arrogant when it was in the sky and was majestic when it was on the ground, with the left and right guardians following behind, overpowered by a neutered cat.

“I’m impressed, Chuan’er-ge,” Movie Emperor Guan patted Fang Daichuan on the shoulder, “your cat is really awesome.”

It is a given, Fang Daichuan thought to himself, you don’t know what an awesome dad he has.

“Now if you say it has a father who drives a plane, I really believe it,” Sister Tong shook her head and looked at the little thing on the drone that looked up at the stars, sighed, “You can’t play drones like this without that kind of gene,”

After the first episode was completed, Fang Daichuan participated in the thank-you dinner prepared by the organisers and returned home in a hurry with Beta in his arms.

Beta had been tickling his pectoral muscle to urge him.

It also really misses its awesome dad who drives a plane.

It was late at night when we got home and there was a light in the kitchen. Beta jumped down from his arms, Fang Daichuan threw off his shoes, turned his head and raced with the cat.

Li Sinian was frying dumplings in the kitchen topless. He wore an apron loosely for fear of being burned by the oil spray. Hearing the movement, he turned off the stove and turned around. Beta just happened to rush into his arms like a small cannonball. Li Sinian reached out tactfully and held Beta to his chest.

“Missing Dad?” Li Sinian smiled and grabbed a little broken eggshell and fed it to Beta, then lowered his head and smiled to coax it.

Fang Daichuan didn’t manage to outrun Beta and was standing at the kitchen door, unhappy.

Li Sinian raised his head with a smile and opened his other arm at him: “Said daddy and daddy will hug you too.”

Fang Daichuan slapped him, stepped back three steps to run and rushed into Li Sinian’s arms in one breath, giving him a koala hug.

The dumplings are sizzling in the frying pan, the scene bringing out the taste of home in the form of home cooking.
