Chapter 17 Midnight Flower Sea

The small alley outside the hotel gradually fell silent, and the whole town seemed to have entered a dreamland.Ye Han nestled into the uncomfortable single bed. She thought she would suffer from insomnia, but the intense work these days made her physically and mentally exhausted, and she fell asleep very quickly.

I don't know how long I slept, but Ye Han was awakened by a series of piercing voices in a daze.She listened carefully, and it sounded like the wheels of a vegetable vendor in the village dragging on the ground, and it became more and more dense and harsh.The soundproofing of the small hotel was poor, and the window of the room was close to the street. The noise made her toss and turn and could not fall asleep.

Wu Ruoyang quickly got up and got dressed, came to Ye Han's bedside and shook her: "Get up."

"Ah?" Ye Han turned over in a daze and blinked, "What time is it?"

"Two o'clock."

"Two o'clock?! What are you doing at two o'clock?"

"Then can you sleep now?"

The noise outside the window really made it difficult for Ye Han to fall asleep, she had no choice but to sit up rubbing her sleepy eyes.

"Quick! The early bird gets the worm." Wu Ruoyang sounded excited, and he walked into the bathroom in no time.

Pushing open the glass door of the small hotel, the cold wind immediately poured into the collar, and Ye Han realized that bringing a coat was an extremely correct choice.And in this howling cold wind, at midnight when it should belong to dreamland, this small town seems to be waking up.

In the dark and deep alley, groups of locals dragging scooters are talking and laughing and gathering in the same direction.At the entrance of the alley, many people gathered in front of the "breakfast" stall. An old street lamp overhead cast a warm yellow light, and steam was steaming from the pot in front of it.Ye Han was very confused. Could it be that everyone here is a night owl?

"Where are you going at this time?" Ye Han stopped and looked at the busy people in the alley in confusion.

Wu Ruoyang was full of energy, and as soon as he pulled Ye Han up, he went into the crowd. "Come on, the time is just right!"

After a while, the two came to the gate of the flower market.Ye Han was immediately stunned by the scene in front of him.

All kinds of trucks, minicars, and tricycles were parked at the entrance of the market, and people were unloading large bundles of flowers from the vehicles and moving them into the stalls in the market.People who buy flowers, sell flowers, and unload goods are full of people and crowded.

Stepping on the wet and muddy ground, the two squeezed through the gate with great difficulty.All the stalls in the market are filled with flowers of all kinds, while the shops on both sides of the aisle sell a wide range of potted plants, seeds and gardening equipment.The entire market is buzzing with people, and it is the busiest time.

Wu Ruoyang explained: "Flowers need to be cut at night to keep them fresh. So in Dounan, the trade of fresh cut flowers is carried out in the early morning. This is the Dounan morning market."

It was only then that Ye Han realized that what he saw in the afternoon was just the flower market during the break.

Walking along the passage, there are bundles of flowers of various colors along the way, roses, lilies, forget-me-nots, carnations, gerberas, and many exotic flowers and plants that have never been seen before, which are dazzling.Looking around, the whole market is truly a sea of ​​flowers.Under the dim light, the frequent buyers can be clearly identified. They all hold flashlights and carefully confirm the quality of flowers.

Wu Ruoyang pointed to all kinds of vehicles parked outside the market: "It's only a dozen kilometers away from the airport. Every morning flowers are traded here, and then transported to the airport. They can appear on the streets of major cities in the morning."

Ye Han was very excited when he saw the colorful flowers. He was standing in the largest flower trading market in the country. The delicate flowers hidden in the protective nets before them were waiting to be transported to the streets of the bustling city. At that time, their value will increase exponentially.

Ye Han walked to a booth and tried to ask the price. A bunch of thirty red roses only cost 5 yuan.

She shook her head in disbelief, and whispered to Wu Ruoyang, "Isn't this cheaper than vegetables?"

Seeing her expression, Wu Ruoyang couldn't help laughing out loud.

After shopping until it was getting brighter, the two left the market with the fragrance of flowers all over their bodies.After eating breakfast, Wu Ruoyang took Ye Han to visit the gardening shops around the market again.When they finally got back in the car, both of them were empty-handed, but both were content.

Ye Han held the phone in his hand, flipping through the photos taken in the flower market one by one.Wu Ruoyang looked at her sideways, and said curiously: "I thought you would buy a lot of flowers."

"I think so too..." Ye Han had an overjoyed smile on his face, "However, you don't have to buy everything back if you like it, just look at the photos." She smiled and shook her head slightly, looking at the The sea of ​​flowers amazed.

Wu Ruoyang looked at Ye Han, and suddenly remembered the photo in his mobile phone, and smiled slightly with emotion.

"What about you? Why don't you buy flowers?" Ye Han put down his phone and looked at Wu Ruoyang seriously.

"I'm afraid I can't take care of them well."

Wu Ruoyang backed the car out of the parking space, went to the exit to pay the parking fee, and just received the invoice when he saw a dazzling red X3 turning off the main road and approaching him.

Xue Lida slowed down, and looked at the white Land Rover parked at the exit on the left with some surprise.Unexpectedly, Wu Ruoyang would be so leisurely, and even bring Ye Han to visit the flower market.She hooked the corners of her lips, snorted softly, and immediately stepped on the accelerator.Liang Yutong, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned his head and looked out the window on the right with a calm expression.

Ye Han saw Xue Lida, but he didn't see the person sitting next to her clearly. He only vaguely remembered that the woman seemed to have a delicate face, but the expression on her face was dim.When he wanted to take a closer look, Wu Ruoyang quickly drove the car out of the gate of the market.

After the car stopped, Liang Yutong opened the door listlessly, and Xue Lida regretted calling her out so early.

"Let's come back in the afternoon next time."

Liang Yutong lowered his head and walked slowly towards the main aisle of the market, and said absently, "I can't buy good flowers this afternoon."

"Then buy more today." Saying that, Xue Lida locked the car door and quickly followed.

"Aren't you afraid of getting your car dirty?"

"It's okay," Xue Lida pretended to sigh, "at worst, you can pay me for a new car."

Liang Yutong stopped in front of the first flower shop next to the passage, and lazily glanced at the neatly arranged potted flowers on the ground.She looked dissatisfied with the store's items, but refused to move.

Xue Lida patiently browsed through all kinds of flowers and plants sold in the store, studied Liang Yutong's expression for a while, and couldn't help asking: "How about these?"

Liang Yutong shook his head: "Go and see something else."

Walking into the crowded market, the scent of flowers mixed with the smell of soil and rain comes to your nostrils, and there is a different scent almost every step you take.Looking at the colorful flowers, Liang Yutong finally had a faint smile on his face.

When he came to a potted jasmine plant that was sprouting branches and leaves, Liang Yutong squatted down and stared lovingly at the young leaves covered with dew.Xue Lida stood a few steps away from her, stared at her for a few seconds, and another face that was [-]% similar appeared in her mind.

"Wen Hao, your sister is more annoying than you, but I probably can't help her..." Xue Lida sighed in her heart and shook her head.

Liang Yutong stood up slowly, and moved forward reluctantly.In the sea of ​​flowers overflowing with fragrance, her somewhat pale cheeks gradually returned to rosiness, and the smile on her face became stronger and stronger.Xue Lida followed behind her unhurriedly, silently watching her walk among the stalls, choosing, asking, and bargaining.

After visiting the flower market, Xue Lida's car trunk was already filled with all kinds of flower seedlings, flower fertilizers and seeds, all of which were Liang Yutong's spoils, and Xue Lida bought the pot of jasmine just now.

The author has something to say: After reading it again, I feel that the writing of these chapters has become more and more chaotic... The main thing is that there are too many trivial things during the Chinese New Year, and the time for coding is also squeezed out piecemeal, and many things are missing in a hurry. The law is thoughtful.When I have free time, I will repair it from scratch, and the new chapter will still be updated daily.
