Chapter 202 (continued)
Chang Qingqing brought out milk tea, and after everyone tasted it, they all praised the quality of her milk.
When Chang Qingqing said that the milk was good because it was fed with grass from Shi Wen Wenjia's ranch, everyone looked at her with envy.
Shi Wen day at Fu Meng's house, and only returned home in the afternoon, carrying the small pastries that Chang Qingqing had insisted on giving him.
Today is Saturday, Yan Kexing at home.
Shi Wen returned home, he was watering the vegetables in the backyard.
The water sprayed from the hose atomized into tiny droplets in the air, and Shi Wen clearly seen in the mist.
Yan Kexing turned around, looked at Shi Wen, and smiled, "You're back so soon. I thought you wouldn't be back until evening."
Shi Wen said, "There's nothing to do staying there; Brother Fu and the others will keep an eye on the breeding sheep."
As he spoke, Shi Wen stepped forward and looked at the vegetables, asking, "How many vegetables are still left to be watered?"
Yan Kexing: "There's not much left, just those two rows over there."
Shi Wen, following behind him, suddenly noticed a watermelon among the watermelon seedlings. "Hey, there's still a watermelon here that hasn't been picked."
Yan Kexing glanced at it. "Didn't you notice it when you were picking watermelons?"
Shi Wen, "No, there really isn't one. If we had found it, we probably would have already picked it back."
I often Shi Wen people picking watermelons.
This watermelon has been sitting for a while; the vines Shi Wen all dried up. You can tell it's ripe just by the sound of a gentle tap.
Shi Wen picked up the watermelon and said, "I'll put it in the stream later; it'll be our dessert for today."
Yan Kexing: "There are two more over there, let's pick them all, otherwise there might not be enough to go around."
Shi Wen over and picked the other two watermelons. "I'll go get a basket to put them in, otherwise I don't know how to carry them over."
Yan Kexing: "After I finish watering the ground, we can carry it over together."
Shi Wen didn't want to go alone, so she said, "That's fine too."
Many vegetables in the backyard had already ripened. Shi Wen chatting with Yan Kexing, Shi Wen picked various ripe vegetables, including winter melon, pumpkin, loofah, bitter melon, eggplant, tomato, and pepper. There were more than he had imagined.
It looks like they'll need to find some time to dry another batch of vegetables.
After finishing their chores in the backyard, the two carried the watermelon over to wade in the stream before returning to the house.
Shi Wen was about to ask Yan Kexing for his opinion on the diversity of grasses on the grassland, Yan Kexing put down his things and said, "The Sanjiangyuan Protected Area contacted me today, asking when I'll send the snow leopard over?"
Shi Wen was taken aback. "They contacted me a while ago, and I told them I'd observe for a bit longer. Are they pressing me again now?"
Yan Kexing: "They didn't urge us, they just mentioned it. Maybe they couldn't get through to you on the phone, so they didn't dare to contact you directly and wanted to come here to sound them out."
Shi Wen took out his phone and, sure enough, found a missed call. He was probably busy breeding his sheep when the call came in and didn't notice.
Yan Kexing, "They said the weather is better and food is plentiful this time of year, so it's good to let the snow leopard cub acclimatize in advance. It would be too difficult for it to hunt in winter."
"That's too fast," Shi Wen sighed. "I feel the little snow leopard isn't ready yet."
Yan Kexing: "Then, should we take the little snow leopard out for some special training after a while?"
Shi Wen, "There doesn't seem to be much to train. Let's take it out for a walk."
The Shi Wen of our impending separation often makes me feel uneasy.
He sat in his chair, idly turning his phone around for a while, before finally replying to the leaders at Sanjiangyuan Park, saying he would take the snow leopard out for some training in the wild, and if conditions were suitable, he would send it over as soon as possible.
Seeing his dejected expression, Yan Kexing said, "It's alright to send it there. The conditions at the reserve are much better than where the two tigers are. It will be easier for us to visit them in the future."
Shi Wen sighed, "That's the only way to think about it."
Yan Kexing: "When we send it over, let them observe it for a while. If the snow leopard cub doesn't adapt well to the reserve's environment, we can bring it back later."
Shi Wen laughed, "Then we need to apply for one more aquaculture permit."
Yan Kexing's eyes also showed a smile, "Yes, we've processed so many certificates, a few more won't make a difference."
Shi Wen and Yan Kexing to take the little snow leopard out for training.
They only brought the snow leopard cub; they didn't bring any other small animals.
Most snow leopard cubs live in high mountains, and apart from Chasing Clouds, the other cubs are not suited to going to the high mountains.
The high altitude and thin air are not good for the little ones.
The car can't go up the mountain; it can only go up a little from the foot of the mountain.
The snow leopard sat in the car, looking a little excited, its tail swishing back and forth.
Shi Wen, sitting in the passenger seat and looking back, heard the snow leopard let out a soft growl.
This guy's voice has long lost its childishness, replaced by a hoarse, rough tone. If it weren't trying to be cute, it would sound quite domineering.
Shi Wen opened the passenger door and got out of the car, then opened the back door. "Come on, let's begin our final special training before release."
The snow leopard came down, dragging its long tail, and sniffed around in place.
Shi Wen waved to it, saying, "You're free to do as you please, just remember not to stray too far from us."
Actually, it doesn't matter if we keep a distance, since the snow leopard has a tracking chip on its body, it won't get lost no matter what.
The snow leopard can now understand most of what they say. When it heard Shi Wen say this, it excitedly flicked its long tail and then started walking upwards.
It moved lightly and cautiously, sniffing the air as it went, seemingly trying to judge the situation of the area by its sense of smell.
After walking more than ten meters, it turned back to Shi Wen them.
Shi Wen wave its hand, signaling it to keep going.
The snow leopard, having received the signal, leaped happily and ran a few steps forward.
Shi Wen at it, Shi Wen felt quite emotional.
