Li Xingning is a retired old teacher. He usually has no other hobbies, one is planting flowers and plants, and the other is teaching.However, after he had a minor operation the year before last, his family asked him to rest more. Therefore, after he retired, he brought a few calligraphy students with him, and he stopped teaching.

Originally, 50.00% of my energy was separated on two hobbies, but I was forced to focus on one thing, and gradually it became a 100% hobby. I usually take care of flowers and plants when I have nothing to do, and I am more serious than doing anything.

If one day he suddenly becomes listless, it must be something wrong with his flowers.

Early this morning, Li Xingning's wife left the room after washing. She didn't see breakfast on the dining table, so she went straight to the balcony, and she saw Li Xingning squatting on the balcony.

"Didn't you buy breakfast today?" His wife asked.

Li Xingning's usual living habits are very fixed. When he wakes up in the morning, he first goes to the balcony to look at the flowers, then goes out to the park for a walk, brings a breakfast to his wife when he comes back, and sits on the sofa to read a book by himself.

Li Xingning focused his eyes on the newly bought pots of orchids, and sighed, "Hey, wait a while and I'll go down and buy them."

His wife said: "If you don't buy it, forget it. I'll go downstairs to buy vegetables and eat by myself." She was about to leave, but she stopped after thinking about it and asked, "Why, isn't this flower not good?"

"Last month was pretty good. I put it here for a few days, and I saw that something bad was going to happen." Li Xingning said, "I went to the market yesterday to find the boss, but the shop was closed. I thought, the boss in front It was indeed said that the store was going to be closed, and I sold these two potted flowers to me cheaply, and I forgot to leave a contact information, and now I don’t know what’s wrong with the flowers.”

In the past two days, Li Xingning has been flipping through books and taking notes, and he is much more serious about preparing lessons than before, but he has not found the root cause of the flower's spoilage, and tried many methods before and after to no avail.When I woke up this morning, I saw that the orchid was not good enough, as if it was about to die.

Li Xingning felt so distressed that he had nothing to say.Although the price of orchids is not as good as it used to be in recent years, and you can buy a pot for more than ten or 20 yuan for many varieties, the price of the famous and expensive products is still there.The two new pots he bought are of good variety, and they cost [-] yuan to buy from the boss.

At that time, another old man who often went to the same park also fell in love with these two pots of orchids. They usually competed with each other when it came to growing flowers. At that time, the old man just didn't have the heart to let Li Xingning take the lead.

The 5 yuan was private money he had hidden for so many years, so naturally he didn't dare to tell his wife, so he lied to his wife that the two pots of orchids totaled [-] yuan.

"If this flower is not well maintained, I will really feel sorry for it."

Li Xingning's wife didn't know much about flowers and plants, and seeing Li Xingning sighing so long, he felt inexplicable, "Anyway, it's just two pots of flowers, and they're not worth a lot of money. Why do you look like you're going to worry about something?"

Li Xingning couldn't say that the two pots of orchids were actually made up his mind and spent all his private money to get them.And these days, every time he went to the park and met another old man, the other man always asked him about the two pots of orchids at home.

It was also when I just moved the flowers back home, the two pots of orchids were indeed growing well, Li Xingning himself was quite embarrassed, and even invited the old man to see the flowers, which made the old man very pantothenic.In this short period of time, Li Xingning calmed down uncharacteristically, and the old man probably sensed something was wrong, guessing that there might be something wrong with the orchid.

In addition, the old man also bought a good-looking pot a few days ago, and he wanted to compare it with Li Xingning. Seeing his situation, it became more and more interesting, and he took the initiative to say that he wanted to come here to see the "superior product" of Li Xingning's family.

One bite at a time, not on purpose.Li Xingning was so annoyed that he didn't even want to go to the park, but it's okay not to go to the park. If the flowers at home keep growing like this, it won't last long.

Li Xingning read the book and found many experienced colleagues. Everyone gave a lot of suggestions, but none of them worked.

Now facing his wife's suspicious eyes, Li Xingning could only bear the pain to soothe his expression in order not to expose his hidden money, "I love flowers, and love flowers, this is the realm."

Li Xingning's wife laughed at him: "Return to the state, that's enough, I will go out to buy vegetables with me in a while, and my son and daughter-in-law will come back for dinner in the evening, and I will cook some dishes for them. They are usually tired from work, and they will make up for it on weekends. "

Hearing this, Li Xingning got up and went to the sink to wash his hands. He thought of something and said, "Then buy a few more prawns, I love them."

Zhenzhen is Li Xingning's granddaughter, his little treasure.

Li Xingning's wife said: "Look at your memory, Junjun took Zhenzhen and Yangyang to Nanling to play yesterday, and he didn't come back until the day after tomorrow."

It was only then that Li Xingning remembered that his niece seemed to have mentioned this before, saying that a colleague over there used to open a homestay, but he has been worrying about Lanhua for the past few days, so how could he remember these things.

Li Xingning's wife said again: "Didn't Junjun post a lot of photos in the family group yesterday? I think Zhenzhen and Yangyang had a good time. The last time we went to Beishan was more than ten years ago. It seems that the development is much better now than it was then.”

The wife said a bunch of words but didn't hear Li Xingning answer. Looking down, Li Xingning was flipping through the photos of the family group.There are some photos of the two children playing by Li Junjun, and the chat records of the family group are full of praise.

Li Xingning usually doesn't send messages in the family group, and doesn't communicate much with Li Junjun.It's not that the relationship between the two families is bad, the main reason is that when Li Xingning taught elementary school, Li Junjun was a student in his class. Later, when he was promoted to teach middle school, he happened to teach Li Junjun again.Li Junjun is usually a carefree character who is not afraid of anyone, but seeing Li Xingning is like a mouse seeing a cat, with a natural fear.

However, Li Xingning still cared about the juniors, and he posted a like-for-the-old emoji in the family group to show his concern.

Then, by the way, I remembered that I hadn’t checked Moments for the past few days, so I clicked on Moments again. I wanted to take a look before going out. I dragged it all the way, and suddenly I was dazzled by a few pictures.

This is……

His wife was changing shoes and called him: "Xingning, let's go."

Li Xingning took the phone away, half-closed his eyes, fumbled under the coffee table with the other hand, and replied, "Yeah." But his buttocks were still sitting on the sofa.

When he put on his presbyopic glasses and finally saw the picture clearly, the unrealized admiration in his heart just now finally turned into substance, "This flower grows so well!"

What Li Xingning was about to open was a few pictures Li Junjun took casually at the entrance of the B&B yesterday when he first arrived at the B&B. In the pictures, besides the main entrance of the B&B, there were flowers in the flower trough in front of the B&B.

Five or six kinds of flowers have different colors, but they are well arranged. The flower branches are not pruned, but they grow very well, from petals to green leaves, from head to toe.

The most peculiar thing is that, based on Li Xingning's experience, the varieties of these flowers are not expensive, but they are eye-catching at first glance. It can be said that the simple beauty of the greatest value has been brought into play, allowing this beauty to change from flower to flower. Ye was re-inspired by the hand of the flower grower.

If Li Xingning was just looking at these flowers with admiration and admiration, then Li Xingning was excited when he saw a few orchids slightly blocked by rose branches on the side of the planter.

These orchids are of the same species as the two pots he bought, but the difference is that the two pots of flowers that he took care of meticulously are now wilting to the point of belching. The plant materials didn't have a particularly favorable environment, but the few orchids were full of vitality and radiance, as if Li Xingning could see the vigor of raising his head and chest from the few flowers.

Is this the difference in the flower growing world?

Whether it's different or not, put it aside first, Li Xingning seemed to feel that this was a life-saving straw that was shaking at him through the phone.

Li Xingning didn't care about his wife's urging, he asked his wife to go out by himself, he couldn't wait to learn the secrets of growing flowers in this homestay.

Seeing him like this, Li Xingning's wife knew that he was crazy to go in again, so she simply ignored him and went out with a small folding cart for grocery shopping.

Lan Chu walked around the B&B to water the green plants. From the main entrance of the B&B to the side entrance of the B&B, as well as several flower beds next to the restaurant and the donkey bus, they are now full of flowers and plants, with a unique vitality.

Except for a few juniors in his family, the other flowers and plants are vulgar products. They were basically wholesaled by Zhao Kangjian later from the flower market. After a few adjustments by Lan Chu, they are now rejuvenated.

Lan Chu watered the flowers slowly, hoping to prolong his watering time as much as possible.It's not that he wants to work abroad, but that he wants to make himself appear useful.

Lan Chu knew that many monsters in the mountains wanted to apply for the job. When Mao Fei asked them to submit their resumes, everyone was excited and looked forward to being selected.Originally, the competition was fierce, and Lan Chu didn't expect to be selected immediately, but unexpectedly he was the first to be selected.

Not only did he show his face, but he also took the opportunity to bring out his younger brothers and sisters. He watched the guests come and go in front of the hotel every day, and listened to what people said. It was really an advantage.With such superior conditions, in just a few days, one of Lan Chu's sisters revealed to him that she had some insights in her heart, and felt that after a while, she might be able to transform into a human form.

Lan Chu is both happy and ashamed. The happiness lies in the progress of his juniors, and the shame lies in the fact that he feels that he has not done much, but brought his family to take advantage of these advantages. However, the boss does not blame him, and always treats him with a pleasant face. of.

Of course Ji Yi treated Lan Chu with a pleasant face, and he didn't think Lan Chu did too little.Anyway, I recruited Lan Chu to let him do gardening. Since Lan Chu got started, the appearance of the homestay has gradually improved, and there are many photos of flowers and plants in the comments of the homestay, compared with the early days of the homestay. , now the homestay has gone up several steps.

Lan Chu wanted to help as much as he could, but because of his introverted personality, he didn't talk much, and he was shy when others looked at him a few times. In addition, he was good-looking, so it was inevitable that he would be looked at, so it was difficult to go to the restaurant to help.

Although Mao Fei brought the younger generation of his family over to work, but the cats in Mao Fei's family are so diligent in hospitality every day.

Even the younger generations of Fang Ying's family, although they can't transform into human form, have been delivering food several times a day since they learned how to transform into drones that are easier to change.

Although Xiong Wen's cubs are not allowed to come out, they are diligent in making honey at home.

As for Tian Mi, this shop model worker can do the work of several people by herself, so Zhao Kangjian and Ji Yi took turns to let her rest more and work less.

Thinking of this, Lan Chu sighed deeply.

Sure enough, does animal essence have inherent advantages over plant essence?

Lan Chu only complains that she can no longer create value for the homestay.

Li Junjun and his nephew and niece who were still yawning, passed by the side door and saw a young boy watering flowers.That boy is white and cute, Li Junjun took a second look, and the boy seemed to have noticed her gaze, and quietly turned his face away.

Li Junjun felt a little regretful in her heart. At this moment, her mobile phone rang a WeChat video call request.

Li Junjun's action of taking out her mobile phone casually, when she saw the name on the screen of the mobile phone, she felt cold all over. It was purely a subconscious physical reaction, which made her nervous and felt that her breakfast was not so delicious.

Why did her uncle call her a video in the morning?

Her niece Li Zhen stepped on her feet and asked her, "Auntie, who is it?"

When Li Junjun saw Li Zhenzhen, he felt much calmer. Her uncle should be concerned about his granddaughter.Li Junjun understood, and handed the phone to Li Zhen, "Your grandpa's call, come and answer it."

"Oh." Li Zhen answered the phone skillfully, and sweetly said to the camera: "Grandpa."

Unexpectedly, grandpa, who usually kisses her badly after seeing her, just greeted her hastily today, and immediately said, "Zhenzhen, where is your aunt, give your aunt the phone."

Li Zhen looked at Li Junjun who had run away early to avoid the call, and waved to her: "Auntie, Grandpa asked you to answer the phone."

Li Junjun had nowhere to escape, so he forced himself to come over to pick up the video.

"Uncle," she squeezed out a smile. She didn't know what her uncle was going to say, but he probably told her to pay attention to safety.

Li Junjun was ready to receive education, but she didn't expect her uncle to say, "Junjun, please take a picture of those orchids that you posted in your circle of friends, and I will take a closer look."

Li Junjun didn't understand why, but he still ran to the orchid to take pictures for Li Xingning.

The orchid in the video is more vivid than the photo. Li Junjun fiddled with the leaves while taking pictures of Li Xingning, and the flower she fiddled with gently swayed like a ticklish child.

Li Xingning's eyes lit up, and watching the video so closely, he could be sure that these orchids were not only growing well, but also that the growing environment looked normal, without any signs of meticulous care.Just like the same species, the orchids in his family are delicate, but the orchids here are inherently strong.

"Is this flower planted by your friend? How does he usually take care of these flowers? There is something wrong with two pots of orchids here, can you ask your friend to help fix them?"

Li Junjun said: "My friend didn't grow it himself. There is a little brother in their shop who specializes in taking care of flowers and plants."

"Then can you help me to ask him for advice, or ask him to come over and have a video together?" Li Xingning said enthusiastically.

Li Junjun was a little uncomfortable with her uncle's state, swallowed, looked around and didn't see Lan Chu, "It may be a bit difficult, that little brother is a bit introverted, I haven't seen him talk in the past two days except watching him water the flowers. "

Li Xingning sighed, "That's right, and you may not be able to see the faults of my flower in the video."

Li Junjun breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Li Xingning had given up, he secretly thought about how to open up and hang up the phone.

But Li Xingning slapped his thigh, "Never mind that Beishan is not far away, I'll just bring flowers and ask for advice."

Li Junjun: "...!!" He wanted to escape.
