The Consequences of Illiteracy

"What is this?"

Zhouzhou curiously shook the stack of papers in her hand, unaware that she was holding them upside down. After a moment of examination, she shook her head, unable to understand.

She was about to throw them into the trash can, but Jinbao let out an urgent "meow" and looked anxiously at her, first at the papers and then at her. The cat's face was filled with concern.

"This is the plan of your former caretaker to trick your father!" Jinbao thought.

But Zhouzhou failed to comprehend its meaning. She scooped up the cat into her arms and, seeing that it was still trying to reach for the papers, she quickly covered its paws and said solemnly, "You can't eat this."

With that, she lifted her tiny paw and tossed the papers into the trash can, then walked out with Jinbao in her arms.

Jinbao gazed reluctantly at the trash can, its paw extended as if to reach out, but eventually settled reluctantly in Zhouzhou's embrace.
