Pastoral Daily Life

    Lu Lingxi said that she wanted to work to support her, but Wang Shuxiu didn't pay much attention to it. She also hoped that Lu Lingxi would go back to school to study. She has been struggling in society for many years, and because she has no culture, she has suffered a lot of grievances, so she hopes that Lu Lingxi will not follow the old path of her and Lu Yishui. Lu Lingxi doesn't think that when he is young now, when he is old, he will know the hardship of being uneducated.

    Simply put things away, and Wang Shuxiu started cooking. Although Brother Feng's gang moved the refrigerator, the other kitchen utensils were basically unchanged. Wang Shuxiu rummaged and looked, and there were still some vegetables and meat left, enough for her and Lu Lingxi to have two meals.

    "Are you hungry? I'll cook right away, you go back to the house and lie down for a while." Wang Shuxiu was worried that Lu Lingxi had just been discharged from the hospital, and her body couldn't stand the torment, so she rushed him to rest.

    Lu Lingxi was fine, but he wanted to stay to help, but he had never been in the kitchen since he was a child, knowing that staying would be a hindrance, Lu Lingxi obediently withdrew and continued to clean up the house.

    This house is not big, it is a small two-bedroom. Because it is a relatively old apartment, the two bedrooms are quite large, but the living room is compressed very small. And because the two bedrooms are facing south, they are transparent from north to south, and the living room squeezed in the middle has no windows, which makes it a little dark.

    Wang Shuxiu had done a simple tidying up before. Apart from the lack of home appliances, the house was actually not very messy. Lu Lingxi's focus was on his "own" house. The original owner of the body appears to be an avid heavy metal lover, and the whole house is furnished in a very dark and gloomy style. The walls were covered with all kinds of weird posters that Lu Lingxi didn't know, and the clothes in the wardrobe were the same as the ones Yi Hang and the others wore last time, either full of skeletons or tattered.

    Lu Lingxi hurriedly tore off the posters on the wall before eating. The original owner's collection of CDs were packed and sealed, and the clothes in the wardrobe were also divided into two piles according to what he could wear and what could not be worn. Lu Lingxi didn't intend to lose these things of the original owner, but wanted to keep them as a souvenir. He knew that this kind of thinking was ridiculous, but he always felt that he occupied the body of the original owner, even if the people around him were used to his appearance and forgot what the original owner was like, he should not forget it.

    When Wang Shuxiu called him to eat, Lu Lingxi had already packed up. The whole room was fresh and refreshing, and he packed and piled up the extra stuff in the corner. The mother and son's lunch was very simple. Wang Shuxiu fried a piece of fried pork with garlic sprouts, fried a tomato egg, and served it with steamed soft glutinous rice. Although it didn't look rich, it made Lu Lingxi's appetite widen.

    After eating two bowls, Lu Lingxi stopped. Wang Shuxiu kept feeding him meat and instructed him, "Eat more." Seeing that Lu Lingxi had almost eaten, Wang Shuxiu mentioned what Sister Tian had said before. "Mom will leave some money for you, you can go to sleep in the afternoon. When you wake up, go to Yi Hang and ask him to take you around. If there is a bookstore, buy a few high school books, and we will sign up for a study class in a few days. , make up for the past, don't understand anything when the school starts." Wang Shuxiu made a final decision, obviously already decided on this matter.

    Lu Lingxi was silent for a few seconds, then said, "I don't want to go to school, I want to go out to work."

    "Little bastard, you want to turn the sky upside down!" Wang Shuxiu slapped her chopsticks, and her eyebrows stood upright, "I have the final say on this matter."

    She was full of momentum, but Lu Lingxi still refused to let go, "I don't want to go to school, I want to work."

      "This matter is not negotiable and must go to school." Wang Shuxiu said bitterly.

    Lu Lingxi didn't speak again, but his expression showed his persistence.

    Wang Shuxiu couldn't understand why Lu Lingxi had amnesia and couldn't remember anything. She still rejected the school so much. After sending Lu Lingxi to take a nap, Wang Shuxiu put away the tableware and sat alone in the room to count her savings.

    Wang Shuxiu and Lu Yishui have not saved much money for so many years. Although her salary is quite large, Lu Yishui is lazy and gambling. In addition, Lu Lingxi spent a lot of money in the past, so she spent all of her money on her father and son. This time Lu Lingxi had an accident and spent a lot of money. The money was originally saved for Lu Lingxi's marriage later, and it was almost spent after one stay in the hospital. There is still a little left, and Wang Shuxiu intends to give it all to Sister Tian, ​​but I don't know if it will be enough. Although Sister Tian only said that Brother Li knew people and could help run the school without mentioning the money, there is no way to find someone to do things without spending money these days. The school is not run by Sister Tian's family, and Sister Tian has to find someone to help her. Sister Tian is well-intentioned, but Wang Shuxiu can't be so arrogant that she really doesn't spend a penny.

    I still lack money after all the calculations, Wang Shuxiu patted the bed angrily, blaming that old bastard. Wang Shuxiu was very angry when she thought that Lu Yishui owed another sum of money outside. If it weren't for his gambling addiction and losing money, no matter where she hid the money, he could find it and steal it, and she wouldn't even be able to get Lu Lingxi's money for school.

    Wang Shuxiu didn't want to divorce Lu Yishui these years and leave this mess. But every time she mentioned it, Lu Yishui made Lu Lingxi make a fuss. Don't look at Lu Lingxi's usual appearance of disliking Lu Yishui, when it comes to divorce, she is definitely on Lu Yishui's side. After several times, Wang Shuxiu didn't mention it anymore. She is just such a son, so she endured it for Lu Lingxi.

    This time...Wang Shuxiu sighed, and let's talk about Lu Lingxi's tone in a few days. Anyway, she wouldn't pay a penny for Lu Yishui no matter whether she was inseparable or not. Thinking of this, Wang Shuxiu quickly found out the house property certificate. The last time she forced Lu Yishui to change the name of the house to Lu Lingxi's, because she was afraid that Lu Yishui would lose his eyes and hit the house. Later, she told Lu Lingxi a few words, don't be tricked by that old **** Lu Yishui to sell the house.

    Across a wall, Lu Lingxi couldn't sleep and was thinking about landing on the water. He couldn't understand why Wang Shuxiu didn't get a divorce? Including the previous time in the hospital, although he had only seen Lu Yishui twice, he had a very bad impression of Lu Yishui. Gambling money or beating his wife, any of which is unacceptable to Lu Lingxi's correctional system. Lu Yishui has all of them, why didn't Wang Shuxiu leave him? According to Lu Lingxi's understanding, those who gamble on everything will end up going bankrupt. Is it because Wang Shuxiu and Lu Yishui have a good relationship? Lu Lingxi couldn't understand. Turning over, he thought of the money Lu Yishui owed again. What will Lu Yishui do? Will Wang Shuxiu help him pay it back?

    Thinking about these questions randomly, Lu Lingxi fell asleep vaguely. When he woke up, Wang Shuxiu was about to pack up and go out.

    "So early?" Lu Lingxi was surprised.

    "I have something to go to your Aunt Lin's house. Oh, you don't remember who your Aunt Lin is. I'll have a meal with you Aunt Lin in a few days." Aunt Lin in Wang Shuxiu's mouth is Lin Mei, a colleague who works with her, substitutes her a lot these days. Wang Shuxiu thought about where to hide the room book all afternoon, but she didn't think it was particularly safe. After thinking about it, I simply told Lin Mei to put the housebook in their house for a few days.

    Leaving the keys and money for Lu Lingxi, Wang Shuxiu said "Yi Hang will come over later" and hurried away. Lu Lingxi collected the keys, found the tomato seeds that were rewarded by the panel upgrade last time, and went to the small garden outside the balcony.

    It is said that the small garden is actually a small open space brought by the residents on the first floor. Wang Shuxiu didn't have the heart to deal with this before. The small garden was overgrown with weeds and looked messy. When Lu Lingxi was in the hospital, he was thinking about where to grow these tomatoes after he was discharged from the hospital. This small space was prepared for him.

    When Yi Hang came over in the afternoon, he saw Lu Lingxi squatting on the ground under the scorching sun, pulling weeds little by little. He has already cleared half of the small open space in their backyard. Across the fence, Yi Hang called to Lu Lingxi, "The third child, what are you doing?"

    Seeing Yi Hang, Lu Lingxi clapped the soil on his hands and walked over. "I want to grow some tomatoes here."

    E-Hang: “…”

    Speaking of which, he is a little confused. A person with amnesia can change so much. It doesn't matter if Lu Lingxi's personality has changed, but his hobbies have also changed, and he likes farming. Yi Hang watched with a headache as Lu Lingxi pulled half of the grass. He was too lazy to go around to the front, so he directly climbed the fence and turned over.

    "Hurry up, I'm done with you, and your mother asked me to take you to the street."

    The two of them worked together, and it took half an hour to clean up the remaining weeds. Yi Hang wiped his sweat and urged Lu Lingxi to change clothes and go out quickly.

    Lu Lingxi looked at him hesitantly, "You just go out like this?"

    Easy Hang is puzzled: "What's wrong?"

    Lu Lingxi hesitated for a few seconds, then whispered, "Don't you think it's strange?"

    Yi Hang's outfit was similar to the day she went to the hospital to see Lu Lingxi, with a **** skull T-shirt, ripped jeans, and colorful hair on her face, just like a poster that Lu Lingxi had cleaned up before The people above came out the same.

    Yi Hang's eyes fell on Lu Lingxi's light blue t-shirt and white shorts, thinking about the image of the two walking together, it was like a gangster kidnapping a good student, indeed Terribly inconsistent. He scratched his hair helplessly, took a bath at Lu Lingxi's house, put on a pink T-shirt that Wang Shuxiu bought for Lu Lingxi at some point, wearing the jeans he had before, with a clean face, Look hard at Lu Lingxi.

    "Is that all right?"

    Lu Lingxi nodded.

    When the two went out, the surrounding neighbors poked out a glance. They met Lu Lingxi in the morning. Who is the guy next to Lu Lingxi?

    Yi Hang's dad was playing poker in a small shed outside the community. When he looked up and saw Yi Hang, he was surprised that he forgot all the cards in his hand.

    "Old Ma, look, is that my little brat?"

    Lao Ma glanced at him indifferently, "Isn't that the little brat of Wang Xiaohua's family? Are you looking at it?"

    Yi Hang's father looked at him again and again, and a little doubted that he was really confused.

    Yihang took Lu Lingxi to the side of the road and waited for the bus, uncomfortably pulled his clothes and asked, "Where do you want to go?"

    "Bookstore, I want to buy a book."

    "Isn't it?" Yi Hang exclaimed exaggeratedly, "What your mother said is true, the third child, you really want to go back to the first year of high school, it's too old."

    Lu Lingxi was amused by his reaction and laughed, "No, I'm going to buy a book on how to grow tomatoes. I also think it's a bit too old to go back to study and want to find a job."

    "Work?" Yi Hang was interested, and looked at Lu Lingxi with a strange smile, "I do know that there is a job that is suitable for you now. My cousin, do you remember? It's just studying gardening. The cousin from graduating high school can't find a job after graduation and opened her own gardening shop. She is pregnant now and is looking for someone to help her look after the shop. I think you have the effort to pull weeds in the afternoon, so you can definitely show her the shop no problem."

    "Are you serious?" Lu Lingxi said seriously.

    "Fuck! Third child, you are serious!" Yi Hang blinked, completely speechless. Could it be that Lu Lingxi couldn't hear that he was teasing him. I don't think it's boring for a big man to play with flowers and plants every day.

    Lu Lingxi nodded, of course he was serious.

    E-Hang: “…”

    Twenty minutes later, Yi Hang couldn't stand Lu Lingxi's insistence and took him to the gardening shop opened by his cousin. Yi Hang's cousin, Du Lin, is a very cheerful girl. Her store is not large, about ten square meters, and the name of the store is Micro Gardening.

    As soon as Lu Lingxi entered the store, her mood improved for no reason. Although Du Lin's store is small, it is neatly organized. There are several shelves on the wall at different levels, filled with lush green plants of various colors. In the center of the store is a circular booth. Several pots of camellias and begonias are in full bloom. The large flowers at the mouth of the bowl are colorful and embellished in the center of the emerald green leaves, which is very eye-catching. On the left side of the wall are all kinds of flowers that are in their flowering season, which can be described as a hundred flowers blooming and fighting for beauty.

    "Welcome, you need..." Du Lin was stunned in the middle of greeting.

    Yi Hang burst out laughing, "Cousin."

    "Easy Hang." Du Lin looked at Lu Lingxi hesitantly, and said hesitantly, "Lu Lingxi?"

    Lu Lingxi nodded. Du Lin couldn't believe her eyes, "So you look like this after washing your face." She couldn't help joking: "I would have gotten married later if I had known."

    Lu Lingxi: "…"

    Du Lin laughed and greeted the two of them to sit down on the rattan chairs that entered the store. "Why are you here, is something wrong?"

    Yi Hang poked Lu Lingxi and said, "The third child wants to find a job, cousin, aren't you hiring?"

    After listening to Yi Hang's words, Du Lin looked at Lu Lingxi with a scrutiny. To be honest, she had met Lu Lingxi several times before, and she had a very general impression of Lu Lingxi. The main reason is that Lu Lingxi and the others are too non-mainstream, and Du Lin really can't stand their aesthetic dress up. This time, Lu Lingxi gave her a completely different feeling than before. how to say? The Lu Lingxi in front of her made her feel very comfortable, not because Lu Lingxi was good-looking, but because Lu Lingxi had a calm temperament.

    But these can only prove that Lu Lingxi is easy to make people feel good about him, and it does not mean that he is qualified for the job. Although micro gardening is small, it is Du Lin's hard work. Every grass and every flower in it was cultivated by Du Lin herself. Not to mention that she has worked hard to gain a firm foothold in this street, and she is a little famous, but only to say that she likes these flowers and plants, and she doesn't want to find someone who doesn't understand them to spoil them.

    Although Lu Lingxi has no social experience, she also knows that the job is not looking for this way. He thought for a while and said seriously: "Sister Du Lin, I like this job very much. You can test me to see if I can meet the requirements of this job."

    Du Lin thinks about it, okay. She motioned Lu Lingxi to look at the corner, "Do you know that potted flower? Can you see what's wrong with it?"

      . There are small red spots on the corolla, which are very fresh and interesting, but they are not very energetic and look a little sluggish.

    This kind of flower land Lingxi had never seen before, and he performed a mental scan almost immediately.

     Botanical Name: Pompeii

    Plant needs: root rot

    Plant Viability: Medium

    Lu Lingxi glanced at Du Lin with a guilty conscience, and said softly, "Is it a pupa flower?"

    Du Lin was slightly stunned, but she didn't expect Lu Lingxi to know each other. The origin of Pubao flower is in Mexico and Peru. It has not been cultivated in China for a long time, that is, it has only been seen in the market in recent years. Du Lin also thought of planting one because the flower language of the pupa flower is money.

    "Can you see what's wrong?" Du Lin asked.

    Lu Lingxi walked to the front of the flower pot, reached out and touched the soil of the flowerpot, looked around carefully, and hesitated: "It may be that the root system is a little rotten."

    Du Lin's eyes flashed with surprise, and she asked deliberately, "Are you sure?"

    Lu Lingxi glanced at the white panel and nodded.

    Du Lin laughed, "Okay, pass the customs, when can you go to work?"

    As Du Lin's voice fell, Lu Lingxi's nervous mood finally relaxed. Yi Hang stared at Lu Lingxi in a stunned manner, "The third one is fine, I don't even know that you still understand this."

    Lu Lingxi smiled with a guilty conscience, thinking about going to the bookstore to buy a few more books. Du Lin was about to greet Lu Lingxi to sign a contract when a customer hurried in at the door, "Boss, take a look at my flowers."
