Panda's Postmodern Life

As a hungry panda, when his ears caught the word 'bamboo', he stopped involuntarily.

Yes, why didn't he think of it?Instead of going to the supermarket every day to buy those bamboo shoots whose quality is not guaranteed, it is better to raise a bamboo to eat by yourself. The bamboo raised by yourself must be absolutely safe and pollution-free.

Seeing the agitated expression on Shen Shen's face, the peddler immediately became interested, his two front teeth glared as if he was advertising for Colgate in the sun: "Sir, just take a look, my The stall is there, just two steps away, I also buy other things besides bamboo, if you like, you can choose more.”

As he spoke, he pointed at the vegetable market beside the road. When Shen Shen saw the dirty and messy vegetable stalls and a group of old women who were bargaining, his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled. The peddler hurriedly said: "Hey, we have a storefront, and our class level is different from theirs. Come on, it's only a few steps away."

Although he somewhat disliked the dirty and messy environment, because he couldn't resist the temptation of bamboo, Shen Shen still moved away. He followed the hawker around in the vegetable market, feeling that he was far more than walking the so-called " Two or three steps', when he was about to turn around impatiently and leave, the peddler suddenly grabbed him by the hem of his clothes: "Hey, sir, here it is."

Looking at the peddler's black paw with displeasure on his face, the other party was still very ignorant and didn't intend to let go: "Look, it's clean here, we only raise safe bamboos, and they are more beautiful than other bamboos. More, come, I will open the door for you first, sir."

Only then did Shen Chen start to look at the small shop in front of him. There were some old but well-preserved wooden doors. On the left side of the door was a wooden window with a touch of the Republic of China. The entire storefront was made of blue bricks——standing on the Gufeng Street in this city It's not that abrupt.

Ah, this damn wretched man actually dragged him to Ancient Canal Street?In other words, he almost walked two or three stops?Shen Chen waited in his heart for this peddler who was interested in consumption fraud. The other party opened the small wooden door without knowing it, and turned to Shen Chen and said, "Come in and have a look."

... This ancient pedestrian street is quite long. It was renovated just a few years ago, and it looks quite clean. Those renovated buildings are a bit far-fetched to pursue the atmosphere of "little bridges and flowing water", but for Shen Shen , These are quite pleasing to the eye. After a century of humiliation, this country has begun to work hard on the road to rejuvenation. The blind approach to the West has made him ignore the original culture. In recent years, the government has also begun to pay attention to these things, and some Similar to the revival of "ancient culture", renovating some ancient buildings, although sometimes I always feel that the "new" ancient buildings have lost their original flavor, but the vicissitudes of the vicissitudes of life in the change of dynasties are As it often happens, as a panda who has long escaped from the mortal world, he doesn't want to say much, but preserving and inheriting his own culture and history is like proving to the world that he once really existed.

The store was indeed surprisingly spacious, facing an old-fashioned counter with a few small wine jars and other decorations on it, and two rows of lanterns hanging above their heads, emitting a soft light like moonlight.

On both sides of the cabinet are some tables and chairs that look like those in an ancient inn. There are a few pink and tender snacks on them, which are still steaming, as if someone just sat there.

Although he was still somewhat satisfied with this antique environment, after scanning the surrounding area for several times, he still did not find anything similar to a bamboo in a basin. Vendors rummaging through the counter.

"Boss, do you really want to do business with me? How come you haven't even seen a plant yet? Do you know how precious my working time is?"

Impatiently tapping the table with his ten fingers, the little man who had been hunched over finally raised his head, with a bunch of big keys in his mouth, and said inarticulately: "I'm really sorry, I was busy looking for the keys just now. Alright, I'll take you to the yard to pick bamboo later."

After hearing the word bamboo, the face that seemed to be smeared with mud didn't look so annoying anymore, Shen Shen said: "In that case, hurry up."

The peddler quickly jumped to the wall facing the door, stretched out his fingers and touched it a few times, found a hole, and inserted the big key horizontally.

With a sound of 'squeak', Shen Shen realized that there was a hidden door with the same color as the wall. As soon as the small hidden door opened, the bright sunlight poured in instantly, and Shen Shen felt that his eyes were stabbed a little uncomfortable. , Slightly squinted his dark eyes, and vaguely saw large expanses of green in that ray of light.

As if his body was out of his control, he stepped into the courtyard in three steps and two steps. Just after passing the threshold, he smelled an extremely fresh smell.

This yard is very big, facing you is a large row of flower shelves, which are filled with various flower pots, colorful ones, very pleasing to the eye, and then behind, there is a small pond, surrounded by a few a willow.

The entire small courtyard is like a miniature Suzhou garden, with pavilions and terraces scattered like ink splashes.

Shen Shen didn't care about this strange scenery, and when he rolled his black eyes, he saw the small, emerald green, delicate and tender bamboo in the pot at the very end of the flower stand.

... What a beautiful pot of bamboo!

As soon as Shen Shen's eyes lit up, he immediately ignored the extremely beautiful scenery around him.

He immediately walked up to the little bamboo, squatted down and stared at it carefully and greedily.

As if he noticed the greedy eyes of a panda, Xiaozhu shrank his small body a little bit embarrassed - of course, how could a bamboo be embarrassed?This was obviously just a joke made by Qingfeng.

The peddler also trotted over, and when he saw Shen Shen staring at the pot of bamboo, his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately took out another bamboo in a purple pot and said, "Sir, look at this, this is me. The variety from India is called Wenxiang, it looks beautiful and doesn’t take up much space..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Chen stood up with the bamboo in his arms: "I want this pot, boss, please make an offer."

The peddler said: "This pot is not for sale, really, this is not for sale..."

"How much?" Holding the basin in one hand, he took out a black leather wallet with the other, with a serious expression that could not refuse.

"This one is not for sale no matter how much it costs...I'm serious, you should take a look at this scent, if you are not satisfied, I will find you another variety..."

"I want this. If you don't sell it, I'll sue you for consumer fraud." His dark eyes swept coldly at the poor little man who was about to cry, and he said, "No matter how much money it is, I will charge you for it." to buy."

"This... this has no price." Looking at the bamboo in Shen Chen's arms, the peddler finally spoke hesitantly.

"No price? Since it's a thing, it has its value. Let's get straight to the point. Even if it's a little more expensive, I'll buy it. I find it annoying to play hard to get."

The peddler's dark eyes first stared at the bamboo, then suddenly looked at Shen Chen, and finally said: "Well, I'm telling the truth, you are the first business I opened for business, I just want to make it auspicious. Take this pot of bamboo as a gift from me, it is true that it has no price, and the boss would not let me buy it at first, but since you like it, sir, I will give it to you as 'priceless'."

Shen Shen's heart moved, but when he thought that there is no free lunch in the world, he was afraid that this was another deep-seated consumption scam, so he immediately said: "This is not acceptable, I can't take other people's things for nothing, you set a price, no matter how much, I will give it to you." I will feel more at ease if I get your money and then take your things."

The peddler was seriously distressed for a while, and finally said: "No, the boss really won't let you buy it, but he didn't say no to giving it away. I think it has a destiny with you, so I will give it to you. In this way, you can buy this pot of incense. Go back, you can just give me ten yuan, just treat it as if I buy one get one free, how about it?"

Buy one get one free?He raised his eyes and looked at the pot smelling fragrant, the thin and weak body of bamboo felt that it was not enough for him to chew in one bite, but... is it a bamboo anyway?

Seeing Shen Ruyi walking away with two pots of bamboo in his arms, the peddler who had been covered in dust suddenly wiped the corners of his eyes, revealing a little white skin.

Hey, if the boss finds out that I gave away that pot of bamboo... Maybe I will be in bad luck.

However, since people like Zhuzi, the boss can't say anything more, right?

Turning around slowly, carefully tidy up the flowers and plants in the yard.

Shen Chen was walking on the road, holding a pot of bamboo in one hand, and he suddenly stopped walking towards the company like this.

No.

How could these two cute little bamboos be brought to that smoky place?If he was poisoned by Feng Guangtou's saliva, wouldn't he just drop it?

Walking out of the store, I checked the time on my watch. It was about an hour before I went to work, so I still had time to go back and put the bamboo away.

Fortunately, Gufeng Street is not very far from my home, Kangzhuang Royal Court, just walk straight there and turn a corner.

Back at home, I put the bamboo from India on the glass tea table in front of the sofa, and put the bamboo I love very carefully on the window sill in the bedroom. Smelling it, thinking about its delicious appearance when it grows up in the future, a yearning smile appeared on Shen Shen's face.

The security door was closed with a 'slap', and the sound of heavy footsteps gradually faded away.

No one saw that the pot of small green bamboo quietly stretched its emerald green leaves under the sunshine of the city.
