Pastoral Daily Life

Chapter 16: Big black

      Du Lin used to have good flower-growing skills and was already well-known in the neighborhood. After Lao Han made such a publicity, when everyone inquired about it turned out to be a micro gardener, Lu Lingxi became famous among flower lovers near this street in less than two days.

    Everyone knows that the young man who is new to Micro Gardening is good, and the flowers are well raised. I did not see that the pots of begonias at the entrance of Micro Gardening are particularly prosperous, and passers-by are attracted. . If you go to the store to take a look, you will be reluctant to leave. The flowers and plants inside are really nice. The leaves are emerald green, the flowers are beautiful, the whole shop is full of greenery, and the air is fresher than the outside. After staying for a long time, it seems that even the fatigue of the day will disappear.

    These words are not an exaggeration. Several old customers who often come to the store for nothing have noticed the difference. The same calla lilies, which have been handled by Lu Lingxi's hands, are better than theirs. They used to come often when Du Lin was there, and they didn't find this problem. how to say? The flowers and plants raised by Xiaoxi are so full of positive vitality. Because of this vitality, the whole store feels different. After staying in the store for a long time, I was really calm, and I felt that nothing bad was going on.

    When Dong Zhi told Lu Lingxi these rumors vividly, Lu Lingxi couldn't help blushing. Her little face was puffy, and she looked embarrassed to be praised. Dong Zhi couldn't help laughing. Lu Lingxi's face was really tender. No matter whether he was praising him or teasing him, children would easily blush. When he arrived, Dong Zhi patted him on the shoulder and deliberately made a sincere appearance, saying, "Young man has a bright future and works hard."

    Lu Lingxi nodded seriously.

    Dong Zhi saw Lu Lingxi's seriousness and cuteness. The child really listened to his light words. After all, he is one round older than Lu Lingxi, and he always treats Lu Lingxi as a junior who needs to be taken care of. I really don't know what kind of family can educate such a well-behaved and obedient child. Dong Zhi had heard Lu Lingxi mention Wang Shuxiu several times, and at this moment he was in awe of Wang Shuxiu, who had never met before. A woman supports a family and educates Lu Lingxi so well. Presumably Wang Shuxiu herself must be dignified, generous, reasonable, and excellent.

     After sighing for a long time, Dong Zhi remembered one thing, "By the way, you can bring Da Hei back today."

    "Really?" Lu Lingxi said in surprise.

    Dong Zhi nodded. Dahei's injury is almost recovered, so there is no problem if you pay attention. Accustomed to the unrestrained life outside, and now locked in a cage all day, Da Hei has a very short temper. That is, when Lu Lingxi goes to feed it every day, he can be gentle, and he usually scare other pets who come to the pet store to see a doctor. Dong Zhi was so troubled by it that he wished Lu Lingxi would take it away quickly.

    Lu Lingxi can often hear Da Hei's roar across the road, so he naturally knows that Dong Zhi is helpless to Da Hei. Strange to say, Da Hei is just an ordinary local dog, and his body size is not very large. Because of his long-term wandering life, he is even more skinny, but he is very imposing. Yesterday, a St. Bernard dog came to the pet store. Xu Shi felt that he was provoked by Da Hei and confronted Da Hei. Dong Zhi hurriedly came forward to stop him, fearing that Da Hei would not be able to bear the loss. In the end, before he could do anything, Da Hei hunched his back and roared, and the St. Bernard turned his head and ran away. When Dong Zhi and Lu Lingxi talked about it, they were a little bit incredulous.

    Because he was going to bring Da Hei home at night, Lu Lingxi was very active in packing his things and getting off work. Dong Zhi friendly gave him a dog leash and a dog muzzle, so that he could tie Da Hei some when he was around. Even if Da Hei doesn't bite, at least everyone is more at ease wearing a muzzle.

    Tie the dog leash and Dahei can barely accept it, but the muzzle is a little unhappy. Dong Zhi struggled for a long time and couldn't get it right, so he could only hand it over to Lu Lingxi.

    Lu Lingxi knew that it would be uncomfortable to carry these, but there was no way. He patted Da Hei lightly and coaxed, "Just go home, just a while."

     Da Hei whimpered a few times and raised his mouth reluctantly. Lu Lingxi rolled his eyes and patted Da Hei's head approvingly.

    It only took half an hour to walk back to the community from Micro Gardening. Lu Lingxi took Da Hei all the way to teach him to recognize the way. Not long after the two turned out of the micro-gardening street, Da Hei suddenly turned back and arched his body, looking vigilant.

    Lu Lingxi looked behind him strangely, but there was nothing.

    "Big Black?"

    Big Black roared lowly, bowing his back. Although he couldn't make too much noise because of the muzzle, the roar that was squeezed from the depths of his throat was even more shocking. Lu Lingxi was a little dazed, and was puzzled by Da Hei's reaction. Is anyone following behind them?

    It was only seven o'clock at this time, and the sky was still bright. This street is not remote, and occasionally there are pedestrians hurried by the roadside. Lu Lingxi patted Da Hei's head in confusion, wondering what Da Hei had noticed?

    Just as Lu Lingxi looked around and was about to pull Da Hei away from here, a familiar car drove over and stopped beside them.

    The car window opened, and Yan Yue looked like they had met by chance, "What's going on? I saw Da Hei making noise from a distance."

    Lu Lingxi shook his head, he didn't know what was going on. Fortunately, since Yan Yue came over, Da Hei stopped screaming, but still squatted on the ground vigilantly, looking at the direction behind.

    Yan Yue glanced at Da Hei lightly, and paused on Lu Lingxi's fingers that unconsciously touched the top of Da Hei's head. The soft black hair wrapped around the white fingers, it was an indescribable eyesore. He withdrew his gaze and said casually, "Get in the car, I'll take you where you're going."

    Lu Lingxi was a little hesitant, Yan Yue appeared at the pet store every day to visit Da Hei, and the two met every time. Although they were not strangers, the two of them didn't say a few words in total, so he didn't really want to trouble Yan Yue.

    Seeing Lu Lingxi's hesitation, Yan Yue's eyes darkened, even though he wanted to jump out of the car and tie the boy to the car, he still had a calm expression on his face.

    Under Yan Yue's silent insistence, Lu Lingxi compromised. He opened the car door and signaled Da Hei to get in the car first. Just as he was about to follow, Yan Yue turned to open the front door and said, "Sit in the front, it's a little messy in the back."

    Lu Lingxi was stunned for a moment, touched Dahei and turned to the co-pilot.

    "Where?"

    Yan Yue was in a good mood, but he couldn't show it. He could only press the corners of his slightly raised mouth and try his best to speak as calmly as possible.

    Lu Lingxi said the name of a community, and Yan Yue knew that this community was one of the older communities in the center of Fengcheng. A few years ago, Hope Group became interested in this community and made a project description. Later, the project was shelved because the demolition fees of the residents in the community were too high. Go forward along this road, turn left at the first crossroads, not far to the east is the community. Yan Yue glanced at the young man out of the corner of his eye, and when he should have turned left, he chose to turn right without hesitation.

    Lu Lingxi: "...wrong."

    Yan Yue was surprised, "Wrong? I remember turning right at the first intersection and heading east."

    Lu Lingxi blinked and pointed out embarrassedly, "You have reversed the left and right."

    Yan Yue glanced at Lu Lingxi apologetically, "I'm sorry, I remembered it wrong, will it delay your return home?"

    Yan Yue was so polite, Lu Lingxi was even more embarrassed. "It's okay, I'm alone when I go home, so I won't delay."

    "You live alone?" Yan Yue seemed to be chatting casually.

    "No, my mother and I, but my mother works night shift, and she is already at work at this time."

    The boy's voice was soft, and he raised his tone a little when he mentioned his mother. It could be seen that the relationship between mother and son was very good.

    Yan Yue let out an "um", but didn't ask where the boy's father went.

    "Do you live nearby?" Lu Lingxi was a little curious. In the past two days, he has frequently met Yan Yue at the pet store. Yan Yue was there when he was feeding Da Hei at noon. Now that he met him again, Lu Lingxi only thought that Yan Yue lived nearby.

    "No, I'm here for business."

    When Yan Yue spoke, he glanced at the boy calmly, but did not say that he was wandering around the boy like a **** these two days. He pays attention to the boy's every move every day, watching the boy take care of the flowers and plants, watching the boy earnestly receiving every customer, watching the boy clean the shop when no one is there, watching the boy He smiled very happily at that stupid dog. He desperately suppressed the urge to appear beside the boy, and only appeared in front of the boy pretending to be a chance encounter when the boy went to feed Da Hei.

    The boy is innocent but not stupid. He doesn't want his rashness to frighten the boy. He wants the teenager to gradually get used to his presence and slowly accept his transformation from a stranger to a friend. When Yan Yue was studying abroad, he would occasionally go hunting with his classmates. When a good hunter finds a prey, they will have enough patience to wait, set up a trap, and then hit it when the prey is unknowingly approaching. He is patient and confident. The youth is his, Yan Yue is extremely certain.

    Da Hei unwillingly poked her head and let out a low cry, Lu Lingxi smiled and reached out and scratched Da Hei's chin, interrupting the topic of He Yan Yue.

    The car fell into silence, only Da Hei whimpered lowly from time to time. Yan Yue's gaze fell vaguely on the boy's body, the boy's expression stretched out, and he sat quietly beside him. Outside the window is the swaying scenery, and inside the window is a world of two people and one dog. Without the hustle and bustle outside and the complexity of the world, only the clean smile of a young man could be seen in Yan Yue's eyes. His heart slowly settled down, enjoying this rare tranquility.

    Not long after the two left, Lu Yishui got out of a corner and spat at the car that drove away.

    He has been forced into debt by Brother Feng these days, and has been hiding in Tibet all day. That woman, Wang Shuxiu, was so cruel, not only did she give out a penny, but she also shouted everywhere that she wanted to divorce him. Lu Yishui grew up with his mother and never saw his father at all. When his mother passed away, Wang Shuxiu and Lu Lingxi were the only relatives beside him. Apart from their mother and son, he really had no other place to find money. Lu Yishui thought, Wang Shuxiu can't be depended on, Lu Lingxi's little bunny can always be depended on by his son. In the end, it's been a few days, and Lu Lingxi is completely as if he doesn't have his father. Lu Yishui couldn't wait any longer, so he could only take the risk to find Lu Lingxi.

    No, Lu Yishui heard that Lu Lingxi had found a job, he did not dare to appear in front of people, afraid of being seen by Brother Feng's subordinates, so he sneaked over and followed behind Lu Lingxi, Thinking that no one will have a word with Lu Lingxi later. Doesn't Lu Lingxi still have a house in his name? Coaxing the little bunny out of his heart, he also took out the house. This time he was really planted. If he couldn't get the money, Brother Feng could really kill him.

    Lu Yishui thought very well, but he didn't expect that Lu Lingxi was following a dog. As soon as the dog barked, his feet went soft. After finally puffing up his anger, the little **** followed the people again. However, Lu Yishui touched his chin, when did the little **** know such a rich man, just looking at the car was enough for him to pay off the gambling debt and then turn over. I don't know what the relationship between the little bunny and the other party is like. Can I borrow some money to help?

    Lu Lingxi didn't know that he was being targeted by Lu Yishui at this time. Because Yan Yue turned in the wrong direction in front of him, it was half an hour before he found a turning intersection and went home. Lu Lingxi thought that it would be good to get off at the gate of the community, but Yan Yue insisted on sending him to the gate. In Yan Yue's words, there are only a few steps to go, and the tossing is saved.

    Under the prying eyes of the neighbors, Lu Lingxi politely said goodbye to Yanyue, "Thank you, I really trouble you today."

    Yan Yue hooked the corner of his mouth, "No."

    Lu Lingxi rolled her eyes and smiled at Yan Yue.

    Watching Yan Yue leave, Lu Lingxi led Da Hei into the room. He has built a nest for Da Hei in the backyard, and he doesn't know if Da Hei will like it.

    "This will be your home from now on." Lu Lingxi touched the big gangster.

    Da Hei seemed to understand this sentence, let out a low cry, and rubbed against Lu Lingxi's palm.

    That night, when Lu Lingxi was about to sleep, he suddenly heard Da Hei screaming loudly, accompanied by a man's wailing.

    "Dead dog! Let go!"

    He rushed to the backyard in a hurry, and saw a black figure clinging to the fence, one leg was bitten fiercely in the mouth by the black man, and he couldn't break free.
