The Science of Rebirth Cultivated Herbs

Grafting technology is one of the methods of artificial vegetative propagation of plants.That is to graft the branches or buds of one plant onto the stem or root of another plant, so that the two parts connected together grow into a complete plant.This technique is mostly used in the cultivation of flowers, such as roses. Many varieties with attractive colors grow very slowly because of their weak root systems. Therefore, it is necessary to use strong rootstocks for grafting to make these roses grow stronger and better cultivated.

For this kind of flower cultivation, Dong Zhu naturally would not use the method of cultivating herbs, so he naturally thought of grafting.As far as he knows, there is no such grafting technology in this era, and even if there is, it is called "transplanting flowers and grafting trees", which is a relatively simple technology, and there is no in-depth research.As a scientific medical scientist who studies plants, of course, he must extensively involve in various fields of plants. Although he focuses on herbal medicine, flowers are naturally indispensable.

Speaking of flowers...why does Dong Zhu suddenly want to grow flowers?The reason is simple, life has already moved towards a well-off life, and enjoyment must keep up!So after tinkering with the cabin and refurbishing the furniture, it is also a visual feast to be able to plant all kinds of beautiful flowers in the cabin!

"Do you know what this is?" Dong Zhu took out a root from the bamboo basket and waved it in front of Qiu Gong.

Qiu Gong shook his head, stretched out his hand to tease the roots, "What weird things are you going to do again?"

"It's not a weird thing." Dong Zhu retorted, and took out a painting from the back room. The painting was pink flowers, the petals were bright and delicate, and the stamens were bright yellow, on white rice paper. Extremely bright and beautiful. "It's a Chinese rose, isn't it beautiful? I saw this painting on the street. An old man was selling it, so I bought it. It's because of this painting that I want to grow some roses."

Qiu Gong took the painting with a strange expression and looked at it several times, then stretched out his hand to stroke the ink on the painting, "Old man? How much did you spend?"

"One or two." Dong Zhu touched his chin and recalled the scene at that time.When he went to buy seeds alone, he saw an old man sitting on the threshold at the door of the teahouse, so he walked over.The old man took a close look at the painting, he had an excellent temperament, he didn't look like a beggar at all, but he still sat in front of the door like a beggar.Dong Zhu glanced at the painting, and was attracted by the rose on the painting, so he quickly walked forward.

"This painting is really beautiful." Dong Zhu admired, the old man turned his head and looked at him several times, seeing that he was very sincere, he responded to his words, and after a while the two had a happy conversation, the old man had a couple of Yinzi sold the painting to him.At first Dongzhu refused to be so cheap, but the old man insisted, so he had no choice but to agree, and he also invited the old man to have a bowl of tea before leaving.

"Do you know who painted this painting?" Qiu Gong pointed to the signature on the painting expressionlessly.

"Ma... Ma..." Dong Zhu narrowed his eyes and looked at the signature for a long time.

"Ma Xueyi." Qiu Gong said indifferently, "Do you know who he is?"

Dong Zhu was at a loss, "A down-and-out painter?"

Qiu Gong glanced at him contemptuously, "The number one painter in the capital. A painting is worth a thousand gold."

Dong Zhu was so frightened that he quickly took the picture of the rose, as if he was holding a thousand taels of gold, "Ma Xueyi, this man is the number one painter in the capital? You didn't lie to me?"

"You..." Seeing Dong Zhu protecting the painting so carefully, Qiu Gong frowned and hesitated to speak, and finally asked, "You don't want to sell it, do you?"

"I'm not this kind of person!" Dong Zhu retorted, and returned to the room with the picture of roses in his arms, spread the picture on the dining table, and carefully watched the smooth lines and lifelike roses.For him, such a priceless item should be well preserved.But...... Didn't Qiu Gong lose his memory? How could he remember Ma Xueyi?

"By the way, Qiu Gong, how do you remember Ma Xueyi?"

"Ma Xueyi?" Qiu Gong's expression was startled by his words, and it took him a long time to murmur, "How do I know him?" Yes, he knew it was Ma Xueyi, the No. A painter, but other than that, he has almost nothing, and...he felt something flowing towards him, clamoring to break through his body.Whether it is the memory of mother-in-law or Ma Xueyi's memory...

"I remember that he hasn't appeared in ten years." Qiu Gong vaguely followed the outline of his memory, "Why did he appear by such a coincidence at this moment?"

"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it." Seeing his pale face, Dong Zhu quickly tugged at his sleeve, and said worriedly, "It's okay, I won't dislike you if you can't figure out what happened in your life."

"Before he was alive?" Qiu Gong said lightly.

Dong Zhu was choked, and he was used to saying it before his death, so he accidentally said, "No, it was before." Seeing that Qiu Gong had recovered his demeanor, he quickly shook his hands and said, "How about it, let's start planting roses ?”

"kindness."

After receiving Qiu Gong's reaction, Dong Zhu took out a small leather glove from a small cloth bag, took out a pair of small scissors, and took out the whisker-like thing for a closer look before saying to Qiu Gong , "This is called wild rose rootstock, understand?"

Shaking his head.

"This one is cut from the root of the rose flower." Dong Zhu was very interested in pulling Qiu Gong to explain, "This one will be used to bear the scion later... Forget it, anyway, you I don’t understand, but I can’t pull it out, let go of Qiu Gong!!!”

Qiu Gong slowly put down the hand that was ravaging the rose, "Interesting."

All in all, it's enough for Qiu Gong to divert his attention... Dong Zhu heaved a sigh of relief, picked up the rootstock and carefully combed the slender roots, and carefully cut some small openings on it with the custom-made grafting scissors, so that others It will be able to scion smoothly in a while.He cut it very seriously, and this is a technique Qiu Gong has never seen before, so he couldn't help but attract Qiu Gong's attention.

Dongzhu carefully cut some openings, and prepared to process the flower diameter of the rose.When he raised his head suddenly, he felt as if something was on top of his head, but he bumped into it firmly without reacting. "Ouch!!"

Qiu Gong was watching in front of him, but Dong Zhu suddenly raised his head and bumped into him.Martial arts practitioners, especially those who are cautious like Qiu Gong, would immediately get out of the way as soon as they encountered wind, but he unexpectedly relaxed and trusted Dong Zhu, which caused him to lose his usual ability to judge, and was hit hard.

"It hurts." Dong Zhu sat on the ground, feeling the darkness in front of his eyes, as if he had been knocked dizzy.

Although Qiu Gong was hit, he was a martial arts practitioner after all. After being hit, he just shook his head indifferently, and soon returned to normal.Looking at Dong Zhu again, he was sitting on the ground staring blankly at his toes.

"Could it be that you're stunned?" Qiu Gong walked slowly in front of Dong Zhu, and waved his hand.

no response.

Qiu Gong said patiently, "Your herbs have turned into silver."

It turned out that in Qiu Gong's heart, he was this kind of person... Dong Zhu scorned him fiercely.Although I wanted to make some movements in my heart, my body that was hit was uncontrollably standing there in a daze.

Seeing Dong Zhu covering his head and looking up at him in a daze, Qiu Gong hesitated for a while, and finally squatted in front of Dong Zhu, stretched out his hand and gently placed it on Dong Zhu's furry head, rubbed it gently, and occasionally I touched his head, "Does it still hurt?"

"No...it doesn't hurt anymore." Dong Zhu was really stunned at this moment.He didn't expect Qiu Gong to do such an unsuitable action.The hand on the head is not wide, but slender and strong. The hand on the head is always cold, but at this moment, it covers it warmly like holding a small thermos pot, which makes Dongzhu feel a kind of in a trance, the holy light descends, the Buddha's light The feeling of being illuminated.

"Be careful." Qiu Gong's expression was nothing special. Seeing that Dong Zhu had regained his composure, he patted his clothes and stood up, and even helped Dong Zhu who was staggering to his feet.

"Thank you, thank you." Dong Zhu quickly tightened Qiu Gong's sleeves, blushing extremely unnaturally.

Qiu Gong looked at his flushed face and didn't say anything, only when he finished and was about to continue with the work at hand, he asked with a little worry, "Ill?"

"No, don't worry!" Dong Zhu waved his hand quickly.But he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, fortunately Qiu Gong is an authentic iceberg with paralyzed face, otherwise wouldn't it be extremely embarrassing if he found out that he was blushing because of shyness at this moment? "It's good that you're fine."

"Your head is quite hard." Qiu Gong said with a half-smile.

"It's a pity that I didn't practice iron head skills." Dong Zhu weakly picked up the rose pole, continued to cut the thorns on the pole, and looked up at Qiu Gong from time to time to prevent him from getting so close again silently.

Cut the rootstock at an oblique angle to cut a shield-shaped incision, and then use the same method and the same size to select full and plump buds on the spikes and embed them in the cut rootstock incision. Because there is no plastic, Dongzhu tightly tied the gauze on the embedded On the incision, the grafting is completed.Next, as long as these grafted plants are cultivated in soil with a suitable temperature, a very beautiful rose will be cultivated within a few days. At that time, the wooden house will be full of warmth and sunshine.

In his previous life, Dong Zhu had always used a grafting machine, and had never operated it manually.Fortunately, I still remember it now, otherwise I would not be able to do it.It is great to be able to grow flowers with grafting techniques. Dongzhu has already thought about what to do if the herbal medicines are gone in the future. Open a flower shop to make money!

"Do you want to do it again?" Qiu Gong looked down at the rootstock and rose stems in the bamboo basket.

"Oh, I still need to make a few more plants to bloom beautifully." Dong Zhu wiped his sweat and said, when he raised his eyes, he saw Qiu Gong's very interested eyes. "Would you like to try it?"

Qiu Gong nodded and took the materials, and began to try them out with scissors.

Dong Zhu propped his chin with both hands, and stared at Qiu Gong with what he thought was a very benevolent gaze.In the eyes of everyone, Qiu Gong is always a person with a deadpan expression and never shows any emotion, but in the process of getting along with him, Qiu Gong has slowly opened his heart, showing a different expression and smile, although He was still in a state of facial paralysis when he showed his expression, but he could read different emotions from it.

Maybe this is the tacit understanding?Dong Zhu looked at the sun with a smile, maybe this is life?A person's life is too short, it is rare to find a tacit understanding, let alone a person who suits you... The happiest thing in life is actually to find a suitable person and keep going.
