The Garden Life of a Little Gardener

Chen Wenli just wanted to chase after him and tell Zhou Quan that the roses in the flower shed were about to enter the budding period, and the flower company that had signed an agreement with them planned to send someone over to check the growth of the flowers in the flower shed in the next few days.

As the person in charge of technology in the village, Uncle Chen wanted Zhou Quan to know earlier and make preparations earlier, so he asked his son to come and inform him.

But Chen Wenli really didn't expect that after catching up with him, he would see such an explosive scene.

His two good brothers, Fa Xiao who grew up together, Zhou Quan and Bao Yan, not only hugged each other and kissed each other, but also held hands and went home together.

! ! ! ! ! !

The words "heaven and earth shattered" were no longer enough to describe Chen Wenli's current mood. He stood there in a daze, his mouth open and friendly, but he couldn't make a sound.

Should I follow up and ask for clarification?But ask what?Ask them what is the relationship between the two of them, why should they kiss together?

If they really caught up and asked, what kind of answer would they give themselves?

Will that answer be what I want to hear?What if not?

Inexplicably, Chen Wenli was actually afraid. He was afraid of knowing the truth, afraid that the answer would be the last thing he wanted to hear.

After standing alone at the open intersection for more than ten minutes, he finally failed to catch up, but chose to turn around and go back to the threshing ground.

The sorority has now been held, and according to the agreement with the village, the young people took the initiative to stay and clean up.

The somewhat dazed Chen Wenli hadn't entered the threshing floor when suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder from behind.

Chen Wenli, who was immersed in his thoughts, was taken aback, and started to yell, scaring the person who patted him on the shoulder back a few steps.

"What are you doing? You're screaming so loudly. If you have a bad heart, you will definitely get sick."

At this moment, Chen Wenli could see the person clearly. The one who patted him on the shoulder from behind was Bao Erlong.

"Can you shout before you shoot someone? I'm almost scared to death by you." Chen Wenli said while panting heavily.

"I scare you? I almost didn't scare you out of the water."

"Forget it, let's not talk about this, what are you doing here? This is a sorority meeting, isn't your kid just married a few days ago? How dare you run around here

, if Lihua finds out, let's see how she handles you. "

"Our family, Lihua, has a big heart, so she won't be petty. Besides, I don't want to socialize, but I just come to watch the fun. Did you see me this evening? No, I'll hide aside, just treat it as a Watch the party."

Chen Wenli didn't say anything more after hearing the words, and continued walking towards the threshing ground without saying a word, but Bao Erlong who was following him quickly noticed his abnormality.

"Brother Wen Li, what's wrong with you? Why don't you speak?"

"It's okay, let's go and see if those boys have cleaned up the threshing ground, and then go home quickly, it's really cold outside at night."

"No, you must have something to do. You don't have this expression when you are fine. Why did you fall in love with it when you were dating? If you see it, then go after it. You are also a single man in your 20s with a serious job. The right to love."

"Don't talk nonsense, you're still pursuing love. I almost don't know what love is now."

Seeing that his younger brother's face was getting more and more wrong, and it was about to be covered by dark clouds, Bao Erlong said very decisively: "After the threshing floor is finished, you go to my house for a drink, we have a long time There's no time for a drink alone."

Hearing this, Chen Wenli looked at the time, and originally wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it and getting upset, he finally agreed.

Mother Bao, who was about to close the grocery store in the village, suddenly saw the flashlight, followed the light and saw her son coming back with a black guy.

"Wen Li, do you want to buy something?"

"No, Mom, isn't there a social gathering in the village today? Brother Wen Li went to help and he hasn't had dinner yet. I happened to be hungry too, so I asked him to come back and let us have a supper."

"Oh, then I'll cook some dishes for you."

"No need, brother Wen Li is not an outsider, we two can deal with each other."

"Yes, Auntie, you don't need to be busy with us."

While talking, Bao Erlong brought Fa Xiao into his room, casually threw the padded clothes and earmuffs on the kang, and lifted the kang table with Chen Wenli.

Afterwards, this mouse got into the kitchen of his home like a mouse, heated up the stewed fish left over from dinner, mixed it with a sugar tomato, and served it on the table.

Probably feeling that these were not enough, he went into the big business room in front of his house, took a bottle of Old Village Chief, and took a few packs of braised chicken feet.

As soon as they unscrewed the wine bottle, Mama Bao came into the house with a plate of sliced ​​salted goose eggs, saying it was an appetizer for them.

Filling up the wine for Fa Xiao on the opposite side, Bao Erlong asked again: "Tell me, what's bothering you so much."

Chen Wenli didn't reply when he heard the words, but picked up the wine cup on the table and drank a glass in suspense.

Baijiu with a degree of more than 40 degrees was pungent from the throat to the stomach in one sip, and Chen Wenli finally felt that his brain's thinking became clearer after enduring the spicy stimulation.

He glanced at Bao Erlong who was sitting across from him, his expression was very conflicted, he didn't know whether he should tell him what he just saw.

Two men get together to kiss me and hug me. This kind of thing can be regarded as explosive news in a closed village. Chen Wenli can imagine that if this matter spreads, Zhouquan and Baoquan will face each other. what kind of speech.

It shouldn't be said, this kind of thing can't spread from my side.

After making up his mind, Chen Wenli raised his head and drank another cup, then lowered his head to eat the food with guilt and said, "It's nothing, don't ask."

Hearing this, Bao Erlong chuckled and put a chopstick of tomato into his mouth, chewed and said, "Brother Wen Li, among the four of us who grew up together, Bao Yan is the one who can hide his thoughts the most, and the one who can hide the most in his heart." It's you who is in charge. If you have something on your mind, everyone can tell it, or you will suffocate yourself to death."

Chen Wenli blushed when he heard the words, and wanted to say something several times, but he didn't say anything.

Hearing this, Bao Erlong picks up the fish, picks at the thorns and says: "Look at your unspeakable appearance, the matter in your heart is not from the family, but from Brother Baozhen and Brother Ahquan."

Hearing the names of Zhou Quan and Chef Bao, Chen Wenli stammered and said, "Our family is fine, Ah Wan and Ah Quan... oh."

Chen Wenli only spoke half of what he said, but Bao Erlong could hear the meaning from it.

He put the cleaned fish into his mouth and said, "Oh, that's it, you know it too."

"Yes, I just watched them, the two of them... Oh, no, I know what it means? You already know about feelings, kid?"

"Yes, I already knew."

"When did you know it? Did the two of them tell you? All three of you knew it and just kept it from me?"

"Do you still need to tell me about this? Although those two are not open and generous, they are not secretive, so they can't tell with their long eyes?"

"Who can think about that, I thought the two of them had a good relationship..."

"Our relationship is not bad, why didn't Brother Baoyan live in my room and sleep under your quilt?"

"This... this... this..."

"What's this? What's the matter? When they are together, Baoyan is not Baoyan? Zhouquan is not Zhouquan? Brothers who have been brothers for more than [-] years are not brothers anymore?"

"Look at what you said, I don't mean that. The few of us grew up together, and the friendship that pissed into mud will never be different."

"That's fine. They're doing well now, so why worry about it?"

"That's not a long-term thing. If the two of them are together, if others find out, how ugly things will be said. I'm afraid they won't be able to bear it then."

"Oh, don't worry, the two of them must be better than us in terms of endurance."

"How can you be so calm? Aren't Ah Huang and Ah Quan your brother? Seeing that they are about to be stabbed in the back, you should think of a way."

"I'll find a way for the two of them? Hey, my brother, those two people live a lot better than the two of us."

Spitting out the fishbone in his mouth, Bao Erlong drank a glass of white wine himself, pointed at the direction of Baojia B&B with his chopsticks and said: "Brother Baoyan, he has been a craftsman since elementary school, went out to earn a living in his teens, and abandoned the United States in his 20s. Over there, the high-level technical staff of a big company came back to the village and chose to run a homestay. In less than a year, they made money that ordinary people would never earn in their lifetime. Brother Ah Quan, he was a small adult since he was a child. When we were playing cards and fishing outside, He knew that he had to study hard in order to be successful in the future. For so many years, he has learned experience and skills outside, worked hard to accumulate contacts, and when the time is right, he will return to the village to start his own business. What can't they understand? What can't they understand? I Find a way for them? Now the whole village is pointing at them."

"But....but..."

"It's nothing but you can't see it. I can't tell you about Ah Quan's side. Brother Baoyan's affairs have already been arranged. Brother Wenli, do you think life in our village is good now?"

"Okay, as long as every household is willing to work hard, it is not a dream to lose 30 to [-] yuan a year, and millions more. In the whole town, no, there are not many people like us in the whole city. Let's talk about it. People from the villages with two surnames don’t give a thumbs up.”

"Then do you think the people in the village want to continue to live this kind of life, or do they want to return to the old life?"

"Of course it's the current life. Who doesn't want to live a better life."

"Then do you mean that the village cannot be separated from Brother Baoquan and Brother Ah Quan, or that Brother Baoquan and Brother Ah Quan cannot be separated from our village?"

Hearing this, Chen Wenli stopped talking, because he knew the answer to this question in his heart.

Lighting a cigarette for himself, Bao Erlong tied a sip, spit out the smoke ring and said, "You know the answer, if Brother Baozhen leaves, the farmhouse business in our village will lose its signboard, and the traffic will decrease." Let’s not talk about what it will become. The upgrading of the dishes will definitely be a problem. If Ah Quan leaves, it will be more lively, and the technique of fresh-cut roses in the village will be pointed at him. Those who signed the contract at the flower shed will have to pay for their underpants."

"So does it matter who they like? It's important to have a house? It's important to have a car? It's important to have children go to a good school? Or is it important for a son to marry a good wife and a daughter to a good family? As long as the two of them are in the village, I said above If the person is gone, it will be a chicken-and-egg fight. No one is stupid, let’s live a good life but compete with yourself? Is it interesting?"

"I don't mean anything else, just worry about them."

"I know what you're worried about. Isn't it just the east plus the west and the west? Isn't it all about face and face? Let them say, what can they do, live life as they want."

Braised tou drank another cup, Chen Wenli sighed heavily and said, "Oh, how come Baoyan and Ah Quan are having such a hard time these days? Erlong, have you noticed Baoyan's hands? It's full of Scars, some were cut by a knife, some were scalded by oil, and there was a thick layer of calluses on the palms, which were rougher than my dad who did farm work all the year round. Without his parents, Grandpa Zhou left again when he was a teenager. He went to study in the imperial capital alone, and wandered alone outside. Now he is finally stable, and he is facing such a situation again. I feel distressed, and I feel distressed when I see them. I am the oldest of the four and I did not take good care of my younger brother."

"I know, I understand, I'm in the wine without saying anything."

After clinking glasses, Bao Erlong filled Chen Wenli's wine again, and Chen Wenli gnawed on a chicken paw and said, "We can talk about everything, we are all brothers. Villagers, you said it too, for the future They have to shut up on a good day, and what I worry about now is my dad and my grandma, and those are the two most difficult fortresses to conquer."

Chen Wenli's worry is indeed a problem. His father is a face-saving and strong person. His grandmother is almost 80 years old, and she is basically a representative of conservative and stubborn.

It would be a wonder if they knew about Baoyan and Zhouquan.

Bao Erlong spit out a mouthful of chicken bones when he heard the words, and thought hard for a while before speaking: "The big cousin is not a big problem. Although he is conservative, he is the most protective person. If he finds out, he should be angry, but if Believe it or not, when there are rumors and gossips that slander Ah Quan and Brother Baozhen, the village chief must be the first one to come out to piss you off. It’s a little difficult for your grandma. It’s hard for this person to change his mind once he gets old. It's not easy."

"It's not just my grandma who is difficult to deal with. There is also Mr. Bao over there. He is an old revolutionary who is older than my grandma."

"It's easy for my grandpa to talk. After all, there is a room across the room. He has no support and no education. It's hard for him to speak. The key is your grandma, and that is the biggest difficulty."

"Oh, the more I think about it, the more I get a headache."

"Have a headache, let's have a headache. Who told us to be brothers? You'd better get the vaccinations at home in advance. With Brother Baoyan's temper, maybe he can let go when it doesn't work, and let him separate when it is done. Do you believe he can be crazy? If something happened to him, Ah Quan would dare to risk his life, do you want to see Ah Quan risk his life?"

Hearing this, Chen Wenli imagined the bloody wind, and immediately shivered.

The author has something to say:

When I wrote this chapter, I thought about it, and I especially wanted to know one question, that is, whether Bao Erlong's words in the article made sense, and whether I was just imagining it out of thin air.

If someone can make you earn 30 or [-] a year, it’s okay to work harder or even a million dollars, would you care about his sexuality? The sexual orientation of BOSS is different from ordinary people. Will you give up high-tech and choose to resign in the face of possible rumors?Or will you defend your boss for the sake of profit?
