Warm man's succulent garden

Last night, Zhang Jingye spent two or three hours picking off some leaves from the old piles along with their growth points. They are now being placed on a shelf to dry. He took a look and will probably come back tomorrow night. It can be placed in a seedling tray and wait for the roots to sprout.

After finishing all this work, he took a bath for Daniel and let him sleep by himself. Zhang Jingye quickly went to bed by himself.Tomorrow morning, he planned to take the bus to go to the Orchid Association in the city by taking the opportunity to play outside. Anyway, the orchids are all in the space, so he will just take out a pot and ask the price at that time.

The next morning, it was the monthly condolence time again. In order to raise funds, Mama Wu would contact some units and rich bosses every month, visit the children in the orphanage, and wait for the sponsors to distribute the things. When the reporters finish taking pictures, they can leave, and Mama Wu will receive a check in various denominations, sometimes some cash.

Don't say it's shameful to show off or something. In this world, there is nothing more important than being alive.

As long as these children are fed and clothed warmly, Mama Wu never minds people saying that she is a beggar for a show or something. Everyone gets what they need, and not all of them are here for a show. Most of them choose orphanages as donation objects. Yes, they are all kind people who really want to help them.

Zhang Jingye also couldn't figure out why many people criticized going to an orphanage or impoverished mountainous areas as a show, so many people didn't dare to go again, because they were afraid that people around them would say that they had gone to show off... To a certain extent, without these so-called "shows", let alone providing for the children to go to school, I am afraid that it would be difficult for them to survive.

It is better to have the enthusiasm for "showing off" than those who stand by and watch coldly.

On this day, instead of obediently waiting until the show ended, Zhang Jingye greeted Luo Jin, saying that he was going to play nearby, and then secretly ran to the bus stop to wait for the bus.He still had 8 one-dollar coins in his pocket, which were the money they bought for scraps last time, and they were reluctant to spend them.

After getting on the bus, I found a seat near the back door and sat down after inserting coins. Before the bus started, a loud voice came from behind: Ai!Master, wait for me!

The bus driver chuckled, opened the window and shouted to the back: Bajie, slow down, the master is waiting for you!

A car of people roared with laughter.

Afterwards, a middle-aged man who was full of dust and dust walked into the car with a woven bag covered in mud.

"Huh? This person looks like President Deng when he was young!" Zhang Jingye remembered Deng Yumin, the president of the Provincial Orchid Association. At the thank-you banquet after the orchid show, President Deng even specially praised him to the hotel manager. The manager also took himself to toast.

It is said that Chairman Deng is an orchid fanatic. Whenever he hears that some rare or high-quality orchids have been found somewhere in the country, no matter how far he is, he will always go there to have a look. He himself often runs into the deep mountains and old forests to find some wild orchids. Seedling.

Thinking of the old forest behind the orphanage, Zhang Jingye's eyes flickered, and she waved to Deng Yumin sweetly: "Uncle, my place is empty, come and sit here!"

"Haha! Children are very polite!" Deng Yumin sat down on the chair, his chubby body shook the chair.

"Little friend, what are you doing alone? Where's your adult?" After the car started, Deng Yumin looked curiously at the plainly dressed Zhang Jingye.

"Uncle, I'm a child in Cihui Orphanage. My name is Zhang Jingye. You can call me Xiaoye." Zhang Jingye replied with a smile.

"Oh? Then why did you come to take the bus alone? Have you encountered any difficulties?" Deng Yumin was a little surprised when he heard that Zhang Jingye was an orphan, and he was even more worried about the child. Don't tell me he was wronged in the orphanage. Did you sneak out?

"Hey~ Uncle, I think you are pretty nice, I will tell you secretly, I dug a pot of orchids on the mountain behind the orphanage this year, and the flowers bloomed beautifully! I watched TV and said that beautiful orchids can be sold for a lot of money Well, I want to go to the city to sell the orchids, and then buy an air conditioner for the dean," Zhang Jingye whispered in Deng Yumin's ear, "The orphanage dormitory is too hot in summer, and many children got sick last year , There is no money to buy air conditioners in the courtyard, I want to see if the orchids can be sold, so that I can have money to install air conditioners in the dormitory! I watched TV and said, air-conditioned rooms are very comfortable!"

"Oh? You have orchids? Where are they? Show them out and let me see!" When Deng Yumin heard about the orchids, he couldn't care less about feeling sad for the children in the orphanage. Donating money is a godsend, and we'll wait for the next meeting At this time, let's find a few rich old guys to work together. It's more important to look at the orchid first, what if it's a rare item among wild orchids?

"Hey! Uncle, this bus is too bumpy. I'm afraid that the orchid will be damaged. Don't worry, I put it in the bag and stuff it next to the seat. When I get off the bus, I will find a place and take it out for you. Look! Uncle, you are such a nice person, if you want to buy it, I will give you a cheaper price!"

Lao Deng was in a hurry along the way, as if thumbtacks were scattered on the chair, he was restless.

After finally waiting for the bus to arrive at the stop, Deng Yumin grabbed Zhang Jingye: My baby, my house is nearby. If you believe me, let’s get off the bus and go to my house together. Don’t worry, I’m a flower from the Agricultural University of S Province Professor Xue, I will never lie to you!

"Well! That's fine! Anyway, I originally wanted to go to the flower and bird market to try my luck." Zhang Jingye never mentioned her original plan to pawn the golden bell first.

joke!If this deal is completed, Jin Lingdang will not need to be sold, and he and Daniel will not have to worry about their lives in the short term. They will still have money to install air conditioners for the orphanage and buy new succulent varieties for the system...

After getting off the bus, he followed Deng Yumin to the back door of Agricultural University of S Province opposite the bus station. Through the back door was the staff dormitory of the Agricultural University. On the way, Deng Yumin stopped at the entrance of the small shop to buy some fruits and snacks for Zhang Jingye. There are only two old couples at home, and their sons and grandchildren are away from home. They don’t usually buy these. However, thinking that Zhang Jingye might not be able to eat these in the orphanage, Deng Yumin bought a big bag. It's also good to go.

"Here we are!" Stopping in front of the yard downstairs of a small four-story building, Deng Yumin looked inside and found that the old woman was not at home. He probably ran out to buy groceries, so he took out his key to open the door.

As soon as Zhang Jingye entered, Zhang Jingye was stunned by all kinds of orchids in the yard!

How much does this person love orchids?Chunlan, Huilan, Jianlan, Hanlan, Molan... as long as they are available in the market, they can be found in this small courtyard.In other words, is it really safe for such a precious orchid to be placed in a dilapidated small brick-walled yard like this?

"Xiao Ye, sit down and drink a glass of juice, take out your orchids and let me have a look!" Just as Zhang Jingye was wandering, Deng Yumin took out a screwdriver from the room and opened the orange juice he just bought.

"Oh! Teacher Deng, look, this is the orchid seedling I dug up on the mountain. When I first found it, I saw it looked good. I didn't expect that it would look beautiful when it bloomed." I didn't dare to take out the customized flowerpot in the system. , Zhang Jingye directly planted the orchid in a broken clay pot picked up from the garbage dump.

Seeing the delicate (?) baby orchid living in a broken pot, Deng Yumin felt so distressed!

"Oh! Is this the panda Ruidie? Oh, isn't it more than 120 million taken away last time? It can't be reproduced by buyers! It's wild!!" Deng Yumin surrounded Powa in surprise The basin turned several times, rubbing hands excitedly.

"Xiao Ye, where did you get this orchid?" Deng Yumin asked with a glimmer of hope. Although wild famous orchids are hard to find, there are some people in this world who are so lucky that they go to the mountains to pick wild vegetables and kill pigs Grass can be dug to Minglan.

"I don't remember either. At that time, I went to the mountains to pick wild fruits to eat with my friends in the orphanage. Then I saw this orchid grass was very beautiful, so I dug it down." Zhang Jingye said naively.This was a trick taught to him by the manager when he was in the hotel in his previous life.

"It's fine if you don't remember." Deng Yumin felt a little regretful, and then asked again: "Xiao Ye, uncle wants to buy this pot of orchids from you, what do you think? Can you make an offer?"

"Uh~ Uncle Deng, you are a university teacher, and you specialize in planting this orchid. You know more than me, and you will definitely not lie to me. I trust you. Please make a price!" Zhang Jingye continued to pretend to be stupid.

"That's it! At the last orchid show, the pot of panda Ruidie was sold for 120 million yuan, but that one is already ripe, and it is better than yours, and I'm not sure if the remaining two that haven't bloomed are really the same. Panda Ruidie, look, can I give you 60?" Deng Yumin asked cautiously.He is also a little embarrassed, this pot of orchids is actually in good condition, if it is auctioned at the Orchid Exhibition, not to mention 100 million, 80 will definitely be fine.But he just ordered a batch of famous orchid seedlings some time ago, and now he can't afford any more money. The 60 yuan is the private money he hid from his wife!

"Okay then! But Uncle Deng, I'm still young and don't have a bank card or ID card. Can you get me cash? I'll take it home and hand it directly to the dean's mother!" Zhang Jingye reminded.

It's not that he deliberately made things difficult for Deng Yumin, but that Madam Wu should not know about the money. He planned to get the money first, then go to the city's home appliance store to order a batch of air conditioners, and then donate to orphanage.

"Okay! But it's not safe for you to take money with you as a child. I'll call a car to take you back later!" Deng Yumin didn't know his situation in the orphanage, and he was afraid that the money would cause him trouble, so he simply let him Forget it.

After the transaction was over, and Zhang Jingye was sent away, Deng Yumin happily squatted on the ground to repot his beloved orchid.

"Today is a mistake!" Deng Yumin said secretly, "Tomorrow I must show off to the old guys in the association! I won a pot of Panda Ruidie for 60, haha!"
