The Garden Life of a Little Gardener

As Christmas approached, the two-surname village began to become lively. Before dawn in the morning, the flower growers would get up and go to the flower shed to pick flowers. After a few hours, the freshest roses that were about to bloom would be exported to various places in the province. urban area.

During the day, the ice theater is open for business, and the people who run the farmhouse have to cook a fire early in the day, gather around the guests who live here to make breakfast, and prepare for the next guests.

As a symbolic "enterprise" in the village, Zhou Quan paid special attention to the traffic flow in the village after the ice theater opened this week.

According to the preliminary statistics, compared with the beginning of the month and the middle of the month, the passenger flow has increased by at least 50.00%. Judging from the number of orders booked online, this value is still going to increase.

Judging from the online booking situation, the number of passengers has been slowly increasing since the New Year's Day holiday. Zhou Quan thinks this will happen. Although it is related to the opening of new game items in Liangxing Village, it is only an ice game. Not the only reason for this surge in passenger traffic.

During the small party, everyone analyzed together, and they all wanted to analyze all the reasons that can affect the number of passengers, so that targeted regulation can improve the business of the farmhouse.

Several young men sat cross-legged on the kang and chatted for a few minutes, and finally came to a unified conclusion that the reason for the increase in bookings in January was most likely because it happened to be winter vacation time.

Having come to this conclusion, Zhou Quan patted himself on the head, thinking that he was really stupid for working, and ignored this most important factor.

I think one of the reasons why their homestay was so popular at the beginning was because they chose to open in the summer, so they could guarantee the flow of customers.

Because Zhou Quan is afraid of the cold, he hasn’t been to other places except the B&B and the small second floor of his home in the past few days. Even the flower shed on the mountain, he only goes to take a look at it in the morning when he helps cut flowers in other people’s houses. Add more heat to the flower shed. Anyway, the cut rose plants will enter a state of natural growth after water and fertilizer are applied. In this case, as long as the temperature and humidity are maintained, everything else is not a problem.

This kind of lazy cat winter life made Zhou Quan feel that his brain had slowed down a lot, and it was time to go out for a walk.

Putting on a down jacket and thick woolen trousers, a hat, scarf and gloves, and carrying a small ice cart specially left behind, Zhou Quan planned to go to the village ice rink to exercise his muscles and bones.

Ice skating is a must-have skill for almost all Northeast boys. When they were young, they could make a simple ice car of their own with only a few boards and wires.

Like all the boys in the village, Zhouquan had his own little ice cart when he was young.

And because Grandpa loves him, the skates under Zhou Quan's ice bike are not ordinary iron wires, but the rim strips removed from the rims of discarded bicycles. The things are straight and of good quality, and after being nailed to wood , Sliding on the ice is much faster than others.

The little ice cart can still be found now, it is just behind the firewood stack of Zhou’s family, but it has been many years since the “magic cart” that once made Zhou Quan proud of his little friend is now decayed, and the strips are full of rust. Stains, no value for renovation, completely scrapped.

When he was about to leave the room, Zhouquan was surrounded by those flower elves in his own house.

He had been away for several days, and although there were people taking care of his house and the flower shed on the mountain, these elves could not be entrusted to others.

So when Zhou Quan and the others came back, they saw the elves who had been out of power for many days and many times in their home, watching him mournfully by the gate.

Since then, the elves have developed a habit, whenever they see Zhou Quan walking out of the house with a box-shaped or rectangular object in full clothes, they must come over and ask.

Zhou Quan shook the things in his hands to the elves, letting them see clearly that this was not a suitcase only used when going out for a long time.

Seeing this, Alan dragged Awen away with a smile, while Xiaolu gracefully bowed to him, then straightened her back and left gracefully.

Seeing this, Zhou Quan dared to touch the cold sweat on his forehead with the back of his hand. After he came back from a long trip last time, his home was disconnected and his tablet was out of battery. Xiaolu, who was forced to quit TV dramas, really gave him a headache some.

Carrying the ice trolley to the creek behind the house, there are already some tourists sitting on the ice trolley laughing and having fun. By the creek, there are ice rink management personnel in cotton coats and red cuffs stopping to inspect.

Zhou Quan took a look at that person, saw that it was Chen Youcai, walked over to say hello, "Uncle Youcai, are you patrolling the river today?"

"It's Ah Quan. Well, it's our group's turn to inspect the river today. These guests are watching by accident. There were some skaters going to the creek just now."

Compared with mountaineering, flower cutting, and mushroom picking, the risk factor of ice play is very high.Whether it is skates or ice carts, ice skates are installed at the bottom. Although entertainment-level ice skates are not as sharp as competition-level ice skates, they can also be called murder weapons in sports equipment.

Just a few days ago, a tourist who was skating fell down, and the skates on his feet hit the people on the ice cart next to him. Fortunately, it was winter and we were outdoors, and everyone was wearing thick clothes, so nothing serious happened. .

However, even so, the sleeve of the down jacket that the tourist wore outside was still scratched by the ice blade that slipped under the person's feet, and the fluffy and white duck feathers flew all over the ice like snowflakes.

The end of the matter was not bad. The tourist who fell down paid for the clothes of the ice cart tourist. The other party also expressed forgiveness and did not pursue it. Both parties continued to play with big hearts.

They are fine, but the village is in a cold sweat, not only immediately increased the insurance amount for tourists, but also diverted the source of tourists. From now on, the skating carts will mainly be on the side of the village stream. Skating people It was planned to go to the side of the small river outside the village, which can be regarded as a diversion of people and vehicles in disguise.

After exchanging pleasantries with Uncle Youcai, Zhouquan came to the ice of the creek, chose an open place to put down his ice cart, pulled out the ice pick from the bottom of the cart, and slid vigorously while poking the ice surface.

This is Zhouquan's first time using this kind of ice trolley specially used for ice shows. It is much easier to use than the simple and simple ice trolley that he made up when he was a child. After a few simple operations, Zhouquan found it again. The action essentials of the skating car.

He clenched the ice pick with both hands, left and right, pushed it regularly, and walked downhill along the angle of the creek. The small ice car smoothly slid all the way from the village to the entrance of the village.

When we arrived at the junction of the river and the stream at the entrance of the village, there were still people guarding here, preventing tourists from the river and the stream from mixing with each other.

Seeing this, Zhouquan stopped the ice truck with his feet on the ground, stood up and walked back with the ice truck in his hands. He knew that the creek in the village was horizontal even though it looked horizontal to the naked eye, but it actually had a slope. , It's too much effort, it's better to walk.

But there are too few people like Zhou Quan who know this. Most tourists turn around and continue to slide back after slipping here. Then they will find that when the downhill turns uphill, too little resistance is not an advantage but rather is a disadvantage.

Carefully avoiding the guests who slipped back after a while, Zhou Quan kindly reminded that little girl to stand up and walk back with the ice cart, otherwise relying on the strength of her hands, it would be difficult to slide back.

Hearing the words, the little girl thanked Zhou Quan politely, then turned around and called her boyfriend over.

Then Zhouquan saw the little girl sitting safely on the ice cart, and her boyfriend pushed her upstream panting heavily.

This move seemed to have shaped the surrounding people, and soon Zhou Quan saw a number of people on the ice cart who were being pushed by others on the ice of the creek.

There are husbands who push their wives, husbands who push women, adults who push children, and a female man whose husband can't push her. This one gets angry and finally jumps out of the car and lets her husband sit on it. She pushes behind.

In short, there are all kinds of postures, which made Zhou Quan dumbfounded.

When Zhou Quan returned to their house with the ice cart, he saw a familiar tall guy by the creek smoking next to Uncle Cai.

Seeing Zhouquan come back, Uncle Cai poked Baoyan next to him and said, "Look, I said he must have come back with an ice cart. The creek in our village is a gentle slope. It's easy to slide down and it takes a lot of effort to slide up. Knowing all this will surely not be in vain."

Zhou Quan, who was enjoying himself, stood at the bottom and shouted: "Brother Ah Huang, come down and play together?"

"Yes, you also go down to play for a while, don't just work and work all day, proper entertainment is also very necessary. You didn't bring an ice cart? It's okay. I'll go to the village committee and get one for you. Our village is now Nothing else, the ice car is enough."

"No, Zhou Zhou and I can just play a car." Chef Bao jumped onto the ice with his words.

Zhou Quan, who was holding the ice cart, asked him, "How do you want to play?"

Upon hearing this, Chef Bao stepped onto the ice and replied with his back turned to Zhou Quan: "I can play as I did when I was a child now."

Seeing this, Zhou Quan expressed his understanding, walked to the back of Chef Bao with the ice trolley, found a suitable place for brother to put down the ice trolley, sat on it and fixed it by himself, then grabbed the hem of his cotton coat with his hand and said, "I'm ready, you run."

Chef Bao heard that he stepped on the ice and ran on the creek. Zhou Quan, who was sitting on the ice cart behind him, was dragged by him and skating very fast. people fell together.

When gliding fast, Zhouquan felt the wind whistling in his ears, and the feeling of flying like lightning came back when he was a child. Excited, Zhouquan howled all the way to the entrance of the village.

At the junction of rivers and streams, Chef Bao began to slow down from a distance, and when he reached the open place, he slipped and braked smoothly.

"Is it fun?" Chef Bao who was pulling the cart in front asked.

"It's fun, you still want to drag me back." Zhou Quan, who was sitting in the car behind, replied.

After hearing Zhou Quan's request, Chef Bao didn't say much, just dragged the ice cart and Zhou Quan turned around, bent down and stepped on the ice to pull them back.

Zhou Quan, who hadn't played so happily in many years, seemed a little excited, kept bouncing back and forth on the ice cart, and whispered in his mouth: "Drive, drive, drive. Horse~~~, run quickly, Run quickly~~~."

Chef Bao who was pulling the cart in front looked back and asked, "Are you using me as a horse?"

Zhou Quan heard the words with a mischievous smirk and said, "It's fine if you don't have to be a horse or a cow, 嚒~~嚒~~, how many times can you call me Mr. Niu?"

Zhouquan made it clear that he was teasing Chef Bao, and Chef Bao was not angry when he saw this, and continued to pull the cart while saying to the people behind him: "It doesn't matter whether it is a cow or a horse, if you are willing to continue riding, if you are willing to let me plow the land, it will become a good one." .”

"What do you mean? Why can't I understand?"

"The old saying is not good, only the exhausted ox has no plowed land, I think it makes sense, why don't you try a different riding style at night?"

This time, Zhou Quan, who finally understood the meaning of the other party's words, blushed with shame and indignation, threw the gloves over and shouted: "I don't ride oxen and horses, I want to ride you."

"Well, I ride."
