Pastoral Daily Life

Chapter 85 Son

The heavy rain lasted for a whole day and night before it stopped.Due to the outdated drainage system, almost half of Fengcheng was submerged in water, and many units were on holiday.Lu Lingxi called Dong Qi to inquire about the situation, and heard that the street in front of Weiyuanyi was also flooded, so she simply took a vacation for herself.

The situation in the Hongfu community is not bad. Although the drainage in the community is also very old, the lush vegetation growing on the ground intercepts and locks a lot of rainwater.Where people can't see, whether it's a big tree or a small grass, their roots are working hard to extend, absorbing and storing the rainwater.

Some residents of the community went out to buy vegetables and came back, and they were very impressed when they talked about the situation outside.Several neighborhoods next door were almost flooded.There are old and new communities in these communities. There are old communities about the same age as Hongfu Community, and there are also newly built elevator communities in recent years. However, neither the old nor the new have very good drainage. The deepest part is said to have been submerged up to the waist, which is shallower. It almost reached the calf, unlike Hongfu District, it didn't go beyond the ankle at most.

When it rained a few times before, the difference in drainage was not obvious, but as the green plants in the community became more and more lush, dense wall-climbing tigers climbed from Building 39 in the deepest part of the community to Building [-] at the entrance of the community , the drainage difference between the community and several surrounding communities is also increasing.Everyone knows that it is because there are many green plants in the community, and the plants store water. This is something that elementary school students know.

Some neighbors took pleasure in other people's misfortunes. In Liuhe Community, not far from Hongfu Community, some time ago, the green space in the community was planned as a parking lot, and a parking space was sold for 10 yuan.As a result, when the heavy rain fell, the entire parking lot was filled with ocean, and all the cars inside were flooded.At that time, it was not that no one in Hongfu Community was jealous of the 10 yuan, but now no one talks about money, and instead talks about the importance of the environment.

"If you have money, you have a fart. Can you buy the environment of our community? You smell the air, it is definitely the standard of the park."

"Hey, didn't you dislike the grass on the ground and the birds chirping outside a while ago, but you changed your tone in just a few days."

"I'm not a fool just to say that casually. Besides, even if he is a real fool, he can tell the difference between good and bad, and know the environment is good or bad."

The person who spoke was a little out of breath, and the people around laughed at the same time.

After one summer, most of the residents in the community fell in love with the green and vibrant environment of the community.Even if the housing prices in the community are getting higher and higher, and there are intermediary people in the community every day to trick everyone into selling houses, few people are tempted.

Of course, this was not the case at the beginning. When I heard that there were still people interested in buying houses in this dilapidated community, and the price was not low, many people sold the houses excitedly, I went to a nearby newly opened community to buy an elevator room.I don’t know if those who sold the house didn’t regret it, but those who bought the house didn’t regret it, and they all felt it was worth it.Many people still want to buy a few more houses and take their families over to live with them. Unfortunately, the housing supply in the community is very tight now, and no one is willing to take advantage of it and sell the house.

These conversations outside floated into Lu Lingxi's ears intermittently with the wind, and he also laughed when he heard it.The sentence that even fools like to live in the environment hit Lu Lingxi, but there are also many people who are even worse than fools for money.This thought flashed, and Lu Lingxi thought of those people in Songjiazhuang.Although the plastic factory is closed, the pollution of Lingshui River has already been caused.Today, he called the flower garden, and even heard that the water level of the Lingshui River had soared, submerging the land in Songjiazhuang.Among other things, the land in Songjiazhuang cannot be planted in a short time.Thinking of this, Lu Lingxi rarely sighed, wondering if the people in Songjiazhuang would regret it?

Shaking her head, Lu Lingxi wasn't thinking about it, and focused on the bitter grass in the water tank again.After a heavy rain, this clump of bitter grass unexpectedly evolved.I don't know if it's because he talks about the pollution of the Lingshui River every day, but the evolution direction of this mutated bitter grass really is to absorb cyanide +20%.Lu Lingxi cheered up, and carefully pulled out the roots of the bitter grass from the water tank with gloves on, washed the roots, and cut off some branches from the underground stems to reproduce.This method of propagation is simple and quick, and he plans to propagate some bitter grass first to see the effect.

Lu Lingxi was so busy that she didn't even notice Yan Yue came back.Yan Yue took advantage of the rain to go out in the afternoon, it was An Jie who was looking for him.As soon as he came back, he saw Lu Lingxi squatting in the backyard, with a row of unused plastic pots on the ground.In the basin was the mud they dug in the Lingshui River last time, and it was black and smelly.As if she couldn't smell it, Lu Lingxi carefully transplanted the branches of the bitter grass into the plastic pot, then filled it with water, and made sure that the branches were all planted, with a serious look.

Yan Yue leaned on the railing of the balcony and looked at Lu Lingxi quietly. Although the young man's hands were covered with black mud, he seemed to have rubbed his face accidentally, and his clothes were also simple T-shirt and trousers, with a pair of An old coat from a few years ago, but he just likes the teenagers now.The emotion in his heart surged violently, Yan Yue's eyes were gentle, he walked over and squatted beside Lu Lingxi.

"Brother Yan, are you back?"

Sensing the black shadow around her, Lu Lingxi turned her head and asked in surprise.He was digging a hole in the mud just now, and his raised hands were black and full of mud.Yan Yue looked at him and smiled slightly, stretched out his thumb to wipe away the mud spots on his face, leaned over and kissed him gently.

"Xiaoxi don't move, let me kiss you."

Lu Lingxi subconsciously steadied her body, and then became a little embarrassed.It was inconvenient for him to move with his hands up, and he was worried that the mud on his hands would rub against Yan Yue's suit jacket, so it was quite difficult to move.What Lu Lingxi couldn't understand was, couldn't Yan Yue smell the bad smell?Why are you still in the mood to kiss him now?

Yan Yue sensed Lu Lingxi's inattention, and left the boy slightly, raised his eyebrows, "What are you thinking?"

Lu Lingxi looked puzzled: "Brother Yan, can't you smell the smell?"

Yan Yue was taken aback for a moment, then laughed loudly.

After laughing, he took off his coat and got up together with Lu Lingxi.After the two of them planted these bitter weeds together, Yan Yue washed his hands and rolled up his sleeves to prepare for cooking.Wang Shuxiu was not around, so he always took care of the cooking, basically it was either takeaway or boiled noodles with tomato sauce.Lu Lingxi washed his hands and followed. Seeing the tomato sauce, he remembered the tomatoes and grapes grown by Brother Feng. I don't know how they are growing.The tomatoes in the courtyard were no longer fruiting, so Lu Lingxi simply disposed of the tomato seedlings and turned the ground over again.He is now looking forward to the early arrival of the tomatoes grown by Brother Feng.

Yongchun vegetable greenhouse

Huzi led people to look around the shed. It rained continuously for a day and night, and he was worried that there was something wrong with the shed.Brother Feng is not here, he has been tense.After looking around for nothing, and no leaks, Huzi finally felt relieved.

After confirming that the greenhouse was all right, Huzi went around to the front.Er Fei was standing on the car directing the workers below to load the collected vegetables into the car. "Hurry up, hurry up. It will be delivered in a while. The wholesale market will be open in the middle of the night."

This is the first stubble vegetable in the greenhouse, mainly green leafy vegetables, and each one looks green and juicy.Even if Huzi doesn't know how to farm, he can tell that their food is good, and it will definitely be delicious.The workers in the greenhouse also said that these vegetables grow well, and there is a fragrance of vegetables, which is not dull at all.Speaking of which, the seeds of these vegetables are bought ordinary seeds, and they do not spray or apply chemical fertilizers. The only reason why they can grow like this is the good soil.

The soil used for farming in the shed was pulled by Brother Feng from Yan Yue, and I don’t know where Yan Yue found it. After this layer of soil was spread, the seeds basically grew wildly, and they popped out in a few days Seedling.It was even more unexpected when the harvest came, and it can be said that it was a bumper harvest.

Brother Feng was very happy to see the vegetables in the shed. He just picked up the first stubble yesterday and sent it to Xiaohua's proprietress, but it happened to be trapped there by the heavy rain.But thinking about it, Hu Zi probably thought that Brother Feng was quite grateful for the heavy rain, wishing that the heavy rain would keep on falling.

When he was distracted, he heard Er Fei shouting: "Wash me a tomato."

Huzi: "..."

Er Fei looked at him and smiled embarrassingly, "My throat hurts after shouting for a long time, take one to moisten my throat."

Huzi ignored Er Fei, and his thoughts turned to these tomatoes.To say that the vegetables in the greenhouse grow well, it is still not as good as these tomatoes.Because they had eaten the tomatoes from Xiaohua's wife's house before, they knew that these seeds were sent by the little boss, so they paid special attention to them, and specially hired skilled hands to handle these tomatoes.As the tomato seedlings grew out, Hu Zi was fine, and Er Fei basically went to see them once a day, hoping to bear fruit sooner.

These tomatoes did not disappoint them. The fruits they produced were big and round, looking red and exuding a sweet and sour aroma.Huzi couldn't resist eating one that was still slightly blue that day, and the taste of biting it down was absolutely amazing.Thinking of this, Huzi swallowed, and shouted, "Wash me one too."

Er Fei bit the tomato and looked at him with a hey smile: "Huzi, do you think our vegetables can be sold?"

"Of course." Hu Zi was very confident about this. They had planned to open the storefront of the wholesale market yesterday, and they specially invited people to see it. However, due to the heavy rain, they had to postpone it by one day.But good things take time, as long as their dishes are good, it doesn't matter which day they open.

Huzi had a good idea. Although the Yongchun Vegetable Wholesale Store was open for business on the first day, once the vegetables delivered by Er Fei were displayed, the outside was full of vegetable farmers who came to wholesale.The dishes of his family are really conspicuous, they are big and juicy, and they look good.

It's just that everything can be faked these days, especially vegetables.Although the people around looked good at the food, it looked like it was newly opened. They had never dealt with it before, and they didn't know if it was reliable. No one dared to try it for the first time.Someone looked suspiciously at the emerald green lettuce leaves, and was a little worried, "Could you be spraying some medicine?"

"How could it be?" Er Fei said angrily, while he was talking, he picked off half a leaf from the nearest lettuce, threw it into his mouth and ate it without washing it. "See, it looks like it's been sprayed with medicine?" Er Fei continued, "Bring a tomato."

Someone from behind handed over a tomato, and Er Fei swiped it three times with a fruit knife. The whole tomato was neatly divided into six petals, as if it had been measured in advance.Er Fei squeezed a piece and ate it into his mouth, squinting his eyes with an expression of enjoyment.

Someone next to him smelled the aroma and pinched a petal, "I'll taste it too." After biting down, the person's expression changed.In just two seconds, he swallowed the tomato in his mouth and said loudly, "Wrap me a hundred catties of tomato."

When he said this, the people around him immediately understood.Although the few people around didn't know each other, they were all familiar faces, and they didn't worry that someone was setting up a trick. One hundred catties for you and one catty for another, and the tomatoes were divided in two strokes.With tomatoes taking the lead, other dishes have also begun to sell.That is to say, it took more than an hour, and the whole cart of food delivered by Er Fei was sold out.He secretly kept two tomatoes for himself, and while biting into them, he thought that it would be much more interesting than watching a scene of loan sharking.Tired is a bit tiring, but the money is comfortable to earn and practical to spend.

The sales of vegetables in Yongchun Vegetable Greenhouse had a good start, and everyone was very happy.Xiao Feng thought about getting people together for a meal, and by the way, he also informed everyone that he and Xiaohua were together, and recognized Lu Lingxi as his son.But he didn't know that Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue had gone to the flower garden to pick up Dahei when he chose a good time, and they wouldn't be back until tomorrow.

"Then change it to tomorrow." Xiao Feng was quite easy to talk to, "The main thing is to see my son, he can't eat without him."

Wang Shuxiu's pretty face flushed, Liu Mei glared at him upright, and said angrily: "Where did you get your son?" Xiao Feng didn't care, and said slowly: "You gave birth to my son, I'll tell if Xiaoxi recognizes him or not." , at least I recognize this son."

What he said was ordinary, and there were no sweet words, but every single word hit Wang Shuxiu's heart.Wang Shuxiu's eyes turned red, she turned around and said nothing.

Unlike young girls, Wang Shuxiu chose to find another man at this age, not only considering her feelings, but more about her children.For her, it is not difficult to find a man after divorcing Lu Yishui, but it is difficult to find someone who can really treat Lu Lingxi as her own son.If the other party thinks that Lu Lingxi is a drag, then no matter how good she thinks the other party is, she will not choose to be together.On the contrary, if the other party is normal in everything else, even if she is really good to Lu Lingxi, Wang Shuxiu gritted her teeth and it would be fine.It was rare that Xiao Feng was a nice person, and he really regarded Lu Lingxi as his son. Wang Shuxiu felt that meeting such a person made it worthwhile for her to suffer in the previous half of her life.

She didn't speak, and Xiao Feng didn't speak either. He just walked over to take over the work from Wang Shuxiu and started working.Wang Shuxiu looked at Xiao Feng's peace of mind, and said cheerfully: "Then tomorrow, don't look for Huzi and the others, just come back and have a meal with the little bastard."

"Okay, let's have a family meal." Xiao Feng agreed, Yan Yue's shadow suddenly flashed in his mind, and he didn't know whether Yan Yue was considered in the family Wang Shuxiu mentioned, but this was what Yan Yue wanted. Worry about it.
