Pastoral Daily Life

Chapter 13 Encounter

Lu Lingxi's handover work went very smoothly. The scale of micro gardening is not large, and there are not many things that need to be handed over. It is nothing more than how to take care of the flowers and plants in the store. Du Lin is very relieved of Lu Lingxi.She is a bit older in pregnancy, so she doesn't plan to come to the store often after the handover, and plans to be a hands-off shopkeeper.

After leaving Lu Lingxi's mobile phone number and home phone number, Du Lin handed over the working capital in the store to Lu Lingxi, packed up and left.She wasn't worried that Lu Lingxi would run away with the money.Firstly, Lu Lingxi was someone Yi Hang knew. Although they were playful, their character was trustworthy.Secondly, in just two short encounters, Lu Lingxi left a very good impression on Du Lin.It wasn't too obvious when we met yesterday, and today I don't know if it's because of severe morning sickness. Du Lin was a little irritable at first, but after standing by Lu Lingxi's side for a long time, her mood inexplicably calmed down.

Once Du Lin left, Yi Hang was liberated.He sat carelessly on the wicker chair at the entrance of Micro Gardening, imitating the customers who came and shouted loudly: "Boss, bring up the most expensive flowers here."

Lu Lingxi was watering the flowers in the shop with a small water bottle, so he had no time to talk to him.

Yi Hang was bored by himself, and habitually went to Lu Lingxi's side, when a customer walked in at the door. "Welcome!" Yi Hang reacted very quickly, only halfway through shouting did he realize that he was actually an acquaintance, brother Cheng whom he had just met yesterday.

Brother Cheng saw Lu Lingxi at a glance, and said in surprise, "Xiaoxi, where's Boss Du?" Lu Lingxi left a deep impression on him, and he still remembered that Du Lin called the young man in front of him Xiaoxi, so he just called out.

Lu Lingxi put down the kettle in her hand, and explained: "Sister Du is home, and I will be in the store during this time."

"That's a good thing!" Brother Cheng happily said to his back, "Hurry up, Lao Han."

As Brother Cheng's voice fell, a man of his age came in holding a pot of Clivia.Brother Cheng grabbed him and introduced: "Old Han, let me tell you, don't look at Xiaoxi as young, he is capable at all. You know that the rhododendron in my house has fallen flowers, Xiaoxi can see what's wrong at a glance, it's amazing. Come on Xiaoxi, let's take a look, can this pot of Clivia be saved?"

The man called Lao Han was very cooperative, and immediately hugged Clivia in his arms to Lu Lingxi.

The leaves of normal Clivia are dark green and shiny. July is the flowering period, and the flowers should be blooming.But the Clivia in front of me only bloomed a few small flowers sparsely, and the leaves were withered and yellow.Lu Lingxi's eyes fell on the rhizome of Clivia. There were white juicy mycelium winding around the rhizome, and some of the mycelium was tangled together, forming small reddish-brown lumps.

The white panel emerged as Lu Lingxi scanned.

Botanical name: Clivia grandiflora

Plant needs: Sickle spot treatment

Plant Viability: very low

Lu Lingxi stared at the extremely low level of plant viability and frowned slightly. He didn't know if he could still save it.

Lao Han saw his expression, smiled wryly and said, "Isn't it okay?"

Lu Lingxi hesitated for a few seconds and said, "Why don't you leave it here and I'll try."

When he said this, he had no idea at all. From the panel, most of the rhizomes of this Clivia plant had actually rotted away.Although he saw the symptoms of this Clivia plant through the panel, how to treat it is still a problem.

Lao Han's eyes lit up when he heard the word try, and he looked at Lu Lingxi gratefully.Lu Lingxi carefully placed the flower pot on the ground. He still needs to check the information on how to cure it.

After seeing off Lao Han and Brother Cheng, Yi Hang took a look at the Clivia.Even if he didn't understand anything, he could tell that this Clivia plant might be dying. "Third brother, are you sure?" Yi Hang's concern was sincere and sincere. After all, this was Lu Lingxi's first day at work. What if there would be any adverse effects if he couldn't be saved?

Lu Lingxi shook his head, he was not sure, but if he was to watch this Clivia wither and do nothing, he couldn't do it either.

Silkworm is one of the common diseases of Clivia grandiflora, which harms the bases of half leaves and underground fleshy stems of Clivia grandiflora.The early stage of the disease is easier to deal with, but once it reaches the later stage, it will threaten the survival of Clivia, and the serious plants will wilt or die.Lu Lingxi closed the materials in her hand, and carefully removed the diseased part according to the book.With the help of the white panel, he can easily see where the root rot is, without trying to find it.After removing the diseased part, he sterilized the remaining base and planted the cuttings in sterile wet sand, waiting for re-rooting.This process is simple to say, but in fact it is extremely cumbersome to operate and requires people to concentrate and be careful.

It was already afternoon when Lu Lingxi finished all the work. It would take a few days for Clivia to re-root. He tried his best, and the rest depended on the vitality of this Clivia.

A thought flashed through, and a line of prompts suddenly appeared on Baimian's panel.

The successful treatment of Clivia Dahua will reward Plant Heart +1, Power of Nature +1

Lu Lingxi's eyes fell on the words "force of nature", with a slightly surprised expression.He thought he already had a basic understanding of the white panel, what is this sudden force of nature?How is it different from Plant Heart?

New things are always easy to arouse people's interest, Lu Lingxi studied the panel for a long time.Fortunately, Yi Hang left at noon because he was bored, and now he is the only one in the store, and he is not worried about being found to be behaving strangely.It's a pity that no matter how he clicked on the panel, there was still no hint on it.His understanding of the power of nature is still limited to these few words.Forget it, Lu Lingxi thinks that there will be prompts on the panel when there should be prompts anyway, even if he wants to break his head now, he can't think of them.After figuring it out, Lu Lingxi no longer entangled in the power of nature, and sat on the rattan chair with the book bought yesterday and read it seriously.

At the end of the day, Lu Lingxi quickly adapted to the life in the shop.When he got home at night, Wang Shuxiu had already gone to work.The prepared dinner is on the table, Lu Lingxi only needs to heat it up.After dinner, Lu Lingxi went to the backyard again, and the seedlings in the yard seemed to grow taller again.He touched the humidity of the soil, poured some water, and received ten points of Plant Heart reward.

Take a bath, read a book, sleep, the time of the day passed like this.In the next few days, Lu Lingxi also started to meet new friends after work.Micro Gardening has been open on this street for a year, and Du Lin used to be very popular.It's not a secret that she went home to give birth and found someone to look after the shop for her. These shopkeepers dropped by for nothing and soon got to know Lu Lingxi.

Lu Lingxi is good-looking, polite and polite, plus he has an indescribable smell, everyone feels very comfortable staying with him.After a few days, Lu Lingxi got a good relationship nearby.The owners of several small shops around like to tease Lu Lingxi when they have nothing to do.The children are young and tender, and they blush when they are teased, and they are pink and tender. Seeing their maternal instincts, they can't wait to go up and pinch them.

Among the several shops around, Lu Lingxi likes the pet shop called "Angel Baby" on the opposite side of the road the most.The owner of the pet shop is a man in his 30s named Dong Zhi.Dong Zhiren is chubby and has a simple and honest personality. He is nicknamed Dough by the people around him.Every time people around him tease Lu Lingxi, he will speak for Lu Lingxi.After going back and forth, Lu Lingxi quickly became familiar with him.

Sometimes when tired of reading, Lu Lingxi would go to the pet shop to visit.Surprisingly, the animals in the pet shop all like Lu Lingxi.Every time he appeared, the animals were willing to join him.Occasionally, the cats and dogs inside would fight, but Dong Zhi couldn't control it. As long as Lu Lingxi appeared, the animals would all become obedient.Dong Zhi once joked and asked Lu Lingxi if he would work for him.Compared with gardening shops, pet shops are the most suitable place for Lu Lingxi to stay.

This kind of life was completely unimaginable to Lu Lingxi in the past.A healthy body, a caring mother, new friends, and the freedom that can be controlled by himself are all things that Lu Lingxi dreamed of but could never get.

Lu Lingxi lay on the bed and rolled happily. Although the current bed is very small, he still worried about whether he would roll on the floor when rolling, but he had never felt so happy.If this was a dream, he wished he could not wake up.

When I woke up the next day, the sky was overcast and very boring.Before Lu Lingxi went to work, Wang Shuxiu asked him to bring an umbrella, fearing that it might rain during the day.Sure enough, when we were about to leave work in the evening, it suddenly rained heavily.Although Lu Lingxi had an umbrella, but seeing the rain, she decided to wait for the rain to subside before going home.

Sitting on the wicker chair at the entrance of the store, Lu Lingxi felt the slightest coolness, and watched the splashing water on the ground outside through the window.Suddenly there was a sudden brake, and a black Jaguar stopped in front of the opposite pet shop.The car door opened, and a man vaguely got out of the car with something in his arms, and entered the pet shop.

Lu Lingxi took a look, and her eyes unconsciously fell on the black Jaguar.He always felt that this car seemed familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.Before he remembered where he had seen this car before, he heard a mournful howl suddenly from the opposite pet shop, the sound was so loud that it even covered the sound of the rain outside.

"Be careful, be careful."

In the pet shop, a big pure black dog was half lying on the operating table. Its forelimbs could not exert its strength. It leaned on the edge of the operating table, looking bloody and bloody.Two little nurses crowded around the operating table nervously, holding tweezers and other tools to clean up the big dog.But as long as they dare to approach, the big dog will straighten up, bared its teeth and let out a low growl, warning them not to come over.

"What should I do?" The little nurse looked at Dong Zhi in a panic.

Dong Zhi glanced at the man who brought the dog over with embarrassment.The man is tall, at least 1.8 meters above, with a strong body and a handsome appearance. A black suit doesn't look cheap.Maybe it was because of hugging the dog, the hem of the man's clothes was stained with muddy water, but he didn't seem to care about it, and kept staring closely at the black dog on the operating table.

The black dog looked like a stray dog. The dog's fur was so dirty that it was knotted together in strands after it rained.In just a short while, the white sheet on the operating table has been dyed black.I just don't know who hit the dog?Dong Zhi glanced at the man and ruled out the man's suspicion.Usually stray dogs like this are ruthless, if this man bumps into him, the dog's eyes on the man should be different.

Dong Zhi thought for a while and ordered: "Prepare the anesthetic, give it an injection first and then clean it up."

"Okay" the little nurse left in a hurry.

Yan Yue stood there listening to their conversation, and his eyes stayed on the black dog on the operating table.He was driving by nearby, and the black dog was hit by someone who didn't know, and was struggling to get up and leave the road.

The car lights hit Heigou's body, and Yan Yue saw the other person's eyes.There is vigilance, alienation, and cruelty in it, but more of it is the desire to survive.Yan Yue couldn't explain what was going on, but seemed to be moved by the dog's eyes, stopped the car, carried the dog into the car, and found the pet shop all the way.

The black dog was very cooperative in the previous behavior, but when the little nurse took the scissors and tried to cut off the tangled hair on the black dog's wound, the black dog barked suddenly, furiously refusing to let anyone approach it.Yan Yue guessed that the black dog must have experienced some kind of injury before, so that it was full of vigilance towards humans.It's a pity that he has never raised a dog before, and he doesn't know what to do in this situation.

The little nurse came over with the anesthetic, and the black dog looked more reactive.Arching his back and roaring angrily, if it wasn't for the inconvenience, Yan Yue believed that it would definitely pounce on it.

"What should I do?" The little nurse was about to cry in fright, and said desperately: "Why don't you let Xiaoxi come and try, store manager, remember that the puppies in our yard are very obedient whenever they see Xiaoxi."

Dong Zhi hesitated for a few seconds, "Okay, then I'll go to Xiaoxi to try." The dog's injury is too serious, if it can't be treated in time, it may be crippled.Being a stray dog ​​is hard enough, surviving with a limp is probably even harder.

After Dong Zhi finished speaking, he smiled embarrassedly at Yan Yue, and hurried out the door with an umbrella.

Yan Yue watched Dong Zhi cross the road to the gardening shop opposite, and soon, someone from the gardening shop followed Dong Zhi out.The rain was too heavy, and Yan Yue couldn't see the other person's appearance clearly, but judging from the figure, the other person didn't seem to be very old.As the two of them crossed the road, the appearance of the visitor fell into Yan Yue's eyes.Yan Yue is unexpectedly young with the other party, and may even be underage at all.

"Xiaoxi." The little nurse called out happily.

The boy smiled shyly at the little nurse, and his eyes fell on the black dog on the operating table.He had obviously heard what had happened, and he didn't need the nurse to order anything, so he tentatively took a few steps towards the black dog.

What surprised Yan Yue happened. The black dog who had been agitated all this time didn't growl at the young man, but just hunched over and watched the young man vigilantly, as if judging the young man's intentions.The boy noticed the reaction of the black dog, paused slightly, and stopped in place instead of moving forward.One person and one dog looked at each other, and tens of seconds later, the black dog slowly lay down with its arched body, the hostility on its body was eliminated a lot, and its attitude became gentler.

Animals are far more intuitive than humans.The black dog felt a very comfortable aura from the boy in front of him, and he wanted to get close to this aura.

The boy saw the black dog's intentions, walked up to it carefully, and gently put his hand on its head.

The black dog moved and let out a low whimper, not a warning but a kind of friendly call.

The young man smiled slightly, his eyebrows brightened, and he patted the black dog on the head.His white and slender fingers ran along the knotted hair on the black dog's head, and he didn't dislike the dog's dirtyness at all.The black dog narrowed its eyes comfortably, its attitude became docile, and it didn't care much about Dong Zhi who took the opportunity to approach it.

While stroking the black dog, the boy repeated softly: "It's okay, it doesn't hurt, just sleep and it will be fine."

The black dog seemed to understand the boy's words, and no longer struggled with Dong Zhi's anesthesia.

A group of people surrounded the black dog on the operating table, but Yan Yue's eyes fell directly on the boy.His heart was turbulent, and he felt that he was really crazy.He watched the boy stroking the dog tenderly, and actually hoped that the boy's hand was touching his head now.
