Chapter 15 Scum

After breakfast, Meng Zhao came to tutor Yuan Ning, and immediately noticed Yuan Ning's bright red eyes.

Meng Zhao didn't ask much.

After so many visits to Zhang's house, Meng Zhao had a general understanding of Yuan Ning's situation, and also knew that he was chosen to "enlighten" Yuan Ning because of his great luck.Joining a family like the Zhang family, it is naturally impossible to suffer grievances, but children are sensitive and will definitely cry.

Fortunately, Yuan Ning behaved as usual in class.

After the main class, it was time to answer questions for Yuan Ning as usual.Meng Zhao patiently asked Yuan Ning if he had any questions in the past two days.

Yuan Ning thought for a while and asked, "Teacher, do you know why plants get sick?"

Meng Zhao was taken aback, and replied: "There are many reasons for plants to get sick. Lack of sunlight, water, elements, and nutrients may all make them sick. These are all things that are missing, and some are infected by viruses just like us. Infection, chemical damage, physical damage."

Yuan Ning was confused and understood.

Seeing Yuan Ning's expression, Meng Zhao knew that he was too good at declaring subjects from the scriptures, and Yuan Ning was confused.

Meng Zhao asked: "In short, there are many reasons, and you can talk about each reason for a few days. Are the plants you raise sick? You can tell me their symptoms, and I will judge."

Ordinary agricultural college students may not be able to do it, but Meng Zhao has been practicing under his tutor for two years, so it is still very easy to determine the cause.

Yuan Ning replied honestly: "They are very listless, and they all hang their heads listlessly. It is said that there is something wrong with the soil."

Meng Zhao frowned.This is really a standard child's answer.

Meng Zhao could only be persuasive and persuasive: "Are their leaves yellow?"

Yuan Ning thought back seriously.

"The leaves turn yellow, the veins turn purple, shrink, and become brittle, and the plants are shorter, shorter than the flowers and plants of the same period." Zhang Xiuyan's voice came from the side, and he described the characteristics of those plants yesterday in complete and detailed detail. come out.

Yuan Ning looked at Zhang Xiuyan in surprise, his eyes full of admiration: "Brother, I remembered it when you said that! It seems to be true!"

Zhang Xiuyan glanced at Yuan Ning, very satisfied that he didn't stutter when he called Big Brother this time.

Meng Zhao's expression turned serious.

Yuan Ning's heart tightened: "What's the matter? Are they seriously ill?"

Meng Zhao said: "The symptoms sound like heavy metal pollution." He memorized these diseases every day when he first learned the subject, and he was very familiar with them.He and his mentor have visited different provinces and cities, and have personally seen plants growing in places polluted by heavy metals. The symptoms Zhang Xiuyan said are very similar to plants in cadmium-polluted areas!

Everyone is talking about development now, and the word "pollution" is rarely mentioned. Even if it is mentioned, they will be asked to make way for development.Many people are not aware of the destructiveness and persistence of all kinds of pollution. They just think that once the pollution is dealt with, it will be enough?

In fact, it is not so easy to manage.

Especially the heavy metal pollution.On the one hand, heavy metals will infiltrate into groundwater and continuously expand the scope of pollution; on the other hand, they will enter the food chain with plants and eventually enter the human body!

Meng Zhao looked serious: "Mr. Xiaozhang, where did you see such a plant? Can you tell me? I'll go back and discuss it with my instructor, and go and see for myself what's going on."

Zhang Xiuyan motioned Yuan Ning to tell the story of yesterday, while he tore off a piece of paper and wrote the address of the gardening shop on it.He handed the address to Meng Zhao: "Here, you go to the front desk staff to register and then you can go upstairs to see those plants."

Meng Zhao said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhang." He couldn't sit still for a moment, so he stood up and said goodbye, "Then I'll go back and find my mentor first."

Yuan Ning knew that he couldn't follow, so he obediently read the book by himself.In the evening, Yuan Ning asked Zhang Xiuwen to accompany him to Mr. Xie's side to see the big dog named Zhao Fu. After hearing this, Zhang Xiuling insisted on following.

Zhaofu looks much more energetic.

Zhang Xiuling was a little scared when she was at the door, but she was miraculously not afraid after seeing Zhao Fu.She actually felt a kind of friendly kindness in Zhaofu?After getting the nod from Mr. Xie, Zhang Xiuling reached out to touch Zhaofu, and the fear in her heart completely dissipated.

Zhang Xiuwen went to fiddle with the record player again, and chatted with Mr. Xie about music.Mr. Xie was blind in his early years. He always said, "If God closes a door, he will open a window for you." He has excellent hearing and is especially talented in music.After chatting for half an hour, Zhang Xiuwen benefited a lot.

Yuan Ning was a little distressed.

Zhang Xiuling has been teasing Zhao Fu, he is not good at talking to Zhao Fu.Although Zhang Xiuling couldn't hear their conversation, it still felt weird.

Fortunately, Zhang Xiuwen came out of the room at this time, and called Zhang Xiuling over with a smile: "Sister, come and listen to this song, is it suitable for your final performance?"

Zhang Xiuling immediately left Zhaofu and ran over: "What song, let me listen to it!" Naturally, music can also be played at home, but Mr. Xie's record player looks very historical, which immediately attracted Zhang Xiuling's attention and urged him repeatedly. Zhang Xiuwen quickly put it on to listen.

Yuan Ning can finally be alone with Zhao Fu.

Yuan Ning was a little apprehensive: "Zhao Fu, can you do me a favor?"

Zhao Fu said, "Of course, what's the matter?"

Zhaofu agreed so simply, but Yuan Ning didn't know what to say.Do you want to recruit blessings to help him in his dream?

Yuan Ning struggled for a long time, and decided to tell the whole story about Yu Pei and Yu Er.

Zhao Fu was very surprised: "I also had a dream the day before yesterday. I dreamed of a dark place, and I couldn't get to the end no matter how I walked. Unexpectedly, after I called out to the surroundings a few times, my eyes suddenly lit up, and the surroundings became There is no end to the wasteland. There is nothing there, not even a blade of grass, and it is very similar to the place you mentioned."

Yuan Ning was also very surprised and found it incredible: "Could it be that you were calling Zhaofu at that time? Zhaofu you actually came to my dream!"

Originally Zhaofu was not easy to make a fuss under the teaching of Mr. Xie, but now he couldn't help but exclaim: "It's really amazing!"

In fact, children's ability to accept new things is far better than that of adults. They have countless whimsical ideas, and they only find novelty and fun when encountering strange things.

Yuan Ning immediately made an agreement with Zhaofu: "Then Zhaofu, if you come to my dream next time, please shout louder to scare away those bad things!"

Zhaofu solemnly agreed: "No problem, I will definitely not let them hurt your friends."

Yuan Ning thanked Zhao Fu happily, and took Zhao Fu in to listen to the song with Zhang Xiuwen and the others.

Xie's old house hadn't been this lively for a long time, with a slight smile on his face, and his right hand tapped the edge of the table rhythmically following the cheerful tune.Zhang Xiuling thought it was interesting, so she knocked with Mr. Xie and Yuan Ning.In the end, even Zhaofu ran to the table, imitating their knocking on the table.

Zhang Xiuwen folded his hands and looked at it, with a smile on his face, as if he was also quite happy.

An old man and two children were having fun when the doorbell rang.Zhang Xiuling cleverly went to turn off the record player, and the part-time worker helped usher the person in. It was a lawyer who helped Mr. Xie handle the will, surnamed Bai.

People in the country think that a will is not auspicious, so it is generally not made.Mr. Xie originally thought that death would be like a lamp being extinguished, and he would not care about things after death, but this nanny incident made him feel chilling.Rather than taking advantage of those white-eyed wolves and little beasts for nothing after death, it is better to arrange it properly during life.

Mr. Xie told Lawyer Bai to sit down.

Seeing that Mr. Xie had business to do, the three of Yuan Ning got up obediently and said goodbye.

Zhao Fu sent them to the door for Mr. Xie.

Zhang Xiuling said: "Zhaofu is so good! I'm not afraid at all now! Zhaofu is also very pitiful. I blame that bad woman for daring to put poison in food!"

Yuan Ning nodded, but was a little worried.

I don't know if Zhaofu calls louder, can it scare away those black and bad things?

The three of Yuan Ning walked away, and the conversation between Mr. Xie and Lawyer Bai officially started.

Lawyer Bai repeatedly confirmed to Mr. Xie: "Mr. Xie, do you really want to donate 90.00% of your property?"

Mr. Xie said, "Yes, donate everything except the ranch." He touched the Braille notarial certificate brought by Lawyer Bai, confirmed it word by word, and then nodded, "No problem, please give me the printing pad, I will Fingerprint."

Lawyer Bai quickly handed over the printing pad.

Looking at the signature and fingerprints on the notarial will, lawyer Bai was filled with emotion.Mr. Xie is really affectionate to his wife, and he has so much property but never married again.What made him jealous the most was that Mr. Xie actually gave a ranch to his guide dog, and stated in his will that whoever voluntarily adopts the guide dog after his death can inherit the ranch!

However, this article is not announced, and it will not take effect until someone adopts and recruits blessings.

People are not as good as dogs!

If he didn't want to continue in this business, lawyer Bai would have rolled up his sleeves by himself.

Early the next morning, lawyer Bai drove the car himself, and took Mr. Xie to complete the formal notarization procedures.

When we got back, the window of the car was half open, the breeze was blowing slowly, and Mr. Xie's heart gradually returned to calm.The older a person is, the more taboo it is to bring up dead words. Now that the will has been made, Mr. Xie wants to open up a lot.

That's it, those things that he didn't bring with him when he died, he let them have their own place after death-if someone offered to adopt and recruit blessings, he would give the pasture to the other party as a gift.

Mr. Xie was closing his eyes and thinking, when Lawyer Bai who was driving suddenly said, "Hey, isn't that the kid who came to play at your house yesterday? He seems to be in some trouble."

Old Xie was surprised: "Which child?"

Lawyer Bai said: "Seven or eight years old—or eight or nine years old, the boy who was a little older among the three children yesterday." Of course he was talking about Zhang Xiuwen.

Mr. Xie said, "Can I park here? If so, help me find out what's going on."

Lawyer Bai nodded, pulled over and stopped the car, and walked towards Zhang Xiuwen.

Lawyer Bai hadn't even approached when he heard the naughty middle-aged man standing in front of Zhang Xiuwen laughing: "You think you can escape by hiding abroad? I won't leave without getting the money. I My dear son, you have climbed a high branch and become a phoenix now, isn’t it right to honor and respect Lao Tzu?”

There was no smile in Zhang Xiuwen's eyes, only disgust and cold hatred remained: "Get lost!"

The middle-aged man blushed angrily: "You little white-eyed wolf, I have raised you for so many years for nothing!"

Zhang Xiuwen sneered: "You raise me? What else did you do besides taking the money my mother earned with her life to raise women outside?"

The man in front of me forced his mother to death, and now he is asking him for money, is he trying to force him to death too?

Zhang Xiuwen was decisive on the surface, but he felt a strong sense of powerlessness in his heart.What can I do if I am found by this kind of scum?Zhang's family adopted him and gave this man a sum of money, but the man ran out of money and came to harass him again and again.

He only hated himself for being the son of such a scum—

Ever since he could remember, he had never called this man "father" again!

No matter how smart Zhang Xiuwen was, he was still a child less than ten years old.Seeing that the middle-aged man brought several people to block him, he could only stand there with his fists clenched, staring at the middle-aged man coldly, thinking about how to ask the passers-by for help.

If the man said he was his father, would anyone help?

Zhang Xiuwen was worried, when Lawyer Bai's voice intervened in his silent confrontation with the middle-aged man: "What are you doing?"

The middle-aged man glared at Lawyer Bai viciously: "I discipline my son, can you control me?"

When Zhang Xiuwen saw Lawyer Bai, he was overjoyed: "Mr. Lawyer!"

Lawyer Bai said, "I'm about to take Mr. Xie back, so I'll take you back by the way." He glanced at the middle-aged man who looked like a hooligan, "There are too many bad guys out there, it's not safe for you, a child, to go back by yourself. "

Zhang's family has two drivers, one is responsible for driving for Mr. Zhang, and the other is always on call to pick up other people in the family.One of the drivers was on vacation today, and Zhang Xiuwen, who was looking for a teacher in the music hall, didn't want to wait for Mr. Zhang's driver to pick him up, so he planned to take a bus or take a taxi by himself—unexpectedly, as soon as he placed an order, he ran into this guy who was hiding in the dark. The scum of the place!

In order to block him, this scum even brought a few people with him. It really cost him money!

Zhang Xiuwen was relieved by the appearance of lawyer Bai, and thanked him politely: "Thank you, Mr. Lawyer."

How could the middle-aged man be willing to let Zhang Xiuwen go: "What are you? This little white-eyed wolf is my son, his own son! It's only natural for me to discipline my son!"

Lawyer Bai said, "I don't think he looks like your son." Seeing the middle-aged man making faces at other people, Lawyer Bai touched his tie, "My clothes are worth more than a thousand, and each tie costs a hundred. How dare you You can do it to me—see that car in front? My companion is sitting in that car, and he can drive to the police station ahead to call the police at any time. If you can’t afford it then, I’ll let you go to jail .”

The middle-aged man stiffened his neck: "Who are you bluffing? You are over a thousand for a piece of clothing, but a hundred for a belt? You are blackmailing!"

Lawyer Bai raised his wrist to look at the watch, and said casually, "This watch is actually worth more than a thousand, you can do it."

Lawyer Bai's tone was so calm that the middle-aged man dared not believe it.Some of his accomplices watched Lawyer Bai get out of the car, and hurriedly gave the middle-aged man a wink.

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth, waved his hand, and led him away in a despondent manner.

Lawyer Bai waited for them to go far away before saying to Zhang Xiuwen: "Let's go, I'll take you back."

Zhang Xiuwen got into the car and said hello to Mr. Xie, and couldn't help but ask Lawyer Bai: "Do you really need one thousand for your clothes and watches? Do you really need one hundred for a tie?" Although he knew that the price was not high among luxury goods It's outrageous, but it doesn't look like it!

Lawyer Bai said: "I bought clothes only after the discount. Ties cost five yuan. At that time, I picked a few spare ones because they were cheaper." As a result, many manufacturers flocked to produce ties.So since the spring of this year, the price of ties has plummeted—of course, for many working-class people whose monthly salary is only a few tens, a tie at the price of five yuan is already quite good.He glanced at the watch in his hand, "The watch is more expensive, it cost me one hundred and two."

Zhang Xiuwen: "..."

Dare to feel that he was really blackmailing just now!

Lawyer Bai glanced at Zhang Xiuwen from the rearview mirror, and asked, "Isn't it the first time they came to you? Have you told your family?"
