Pastoral Daily Life

    "Brother Yan?" Seeing Yan Yue coming in, Lu Lingxi smiled at him, and his eyes fell on the geranium in Yan Yue's hand. "What's wrong with this geranium?"

    Since Yan Yue bought this pot of geraniums from Micro Gardening three days ago, she has appeared in front of Lu Lingxi holding geraniums from time to time.

    “How often does this geranium need watering?”

    "Will it be by the bedside or the window at night?"

    "I watered a little too much last night. The roots of the geraniums won't rot, right?"

    Lu Lingxi doesn't think of anything else, only regards Yan Yue as a lover who is new to gardening. He sometimes encounters customers like Yan Yue in the store, because he has just started to grow flowers, so it is inevitable that he cares too much. Some customers even record the number of leaves they have lost a day, and go to the store nervously to ask if there is something wrong with the flowers. Lu Lingxi is also a novice in gardening himself, and his only advantage is the white panel. In order not to show his timidity, during this period of time, he did a lot to supplement relevant knowledge, and the process of clarifying doubts to customers was actually a process of consolidating and reviewing.

    The first thing Lu Lingxi saw was the geranium in Yan Yue's hand. Getting used to Yan Yue's nervousness about him, Lu Lingxi didn't need to ask to know that it must be another question about geraniums. Looking at Yan Yue, he couldn't help thinking that the other party must be a gentle person. Yan Yue would rescue Da Hei who was bruised on rainy nights, would be nervous about a pot of newly raised geraniums, and would give money to Lu Yishui, who had never met him.

    Lu Lingxi looked at the geranium, but Yan Yue's eyes fell on his face. Yan Yue did not answer Lu Lingxi's question immediately. In normal times, no matter what Lu Lingxi said to him, he would respond seriously. As long as he could get close to the teenager, repeating these seemingly stupid questions would not be any obstacle for him at all. But today was different. Realizing that the young man had something on his mind, Yan Yue couldn't calm down. He looked at the young man's smiling face, and couldn't help himself thinking about what the young man was thinking before he came? Did you encounter any problem? Or about Lu Yishui? Is the smile on the boy's face really happy at this time?

    Yan Yue thought too much, and his face sank unconsciously. Lu Lingxi looked up at him and blinked in confusion.

    Noticing Lu Lingxi's gaze, Yan Yue came back to his senses and said casually, "Didn't sleep well last night? Are you in good spirits?"

    Although he really wanted to ask the boy directly if he had anything on his mind, but he was worried that asking directly would make the boy feel strange, so he had to mention it sideways.

    Lu Lingxi was stunned for a moment, then rolled her eyes and shook her head, "It's okay."

    His words blocked the possibility of Yan Yue continuing to ask, Yan Yue's eyes darkened, and his heart was more and more scratching his lungs, just wanting to know what happened to Lu Lingxi.

    Lu Lingxi didn't know what Yan Yue was thinking, so he focused on the geranium again. He lowered his head and looked at the geranium leaves seriously, Yan Yue stood beside him, stared at the young man's fair neck, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Did you encounter any problems?"

    Lu Lingxi glanced at Yan Yue in surprise, but shook her head to indicate that it was all right. I don't know why he had a feeling, as if he was going to say that he was short of money, Yan Yue would definitely lend it to him. But it was because of this that he was reluctant to mention micro-gardening in front of Yan Yue. He already owed Yan Yue 400,000 yuan, and he couldn't keep relying on Yan Yue's money just because Yan Yue was a good person.

    Lu Lingxi refused to say anything, Yan Yue was a little anxious, but she couldn't show it, and she almost felt internal injuries in her heart. Until he left, he didn't ask what the problem was with the boy.

    Sit back in the car, Yan Yue's expression sank, a little ugly. He is not angry with Lu Lingxi, but realizes that Lu Lingxi still treats him like a stranger. Better yet, he is just a familiar stranger in Lu Lingxi's eyes. The teenager didn't put him in the category where he could talk about his thoughts, and this realization made him a little frustrated.

    Yan Yue habitually tapped the steering wheel and made a phone call. The last time I investigated Lu Yishui, Ye Kang's third brother Ye Cheng heard that Yan Yue was in Fengcheng, so he specially left a phone number for him and asked him to direct him if he had anything. Ye Cheng also watched Yan Yue grow up, and sympathized with his situation in his heart, always treating him as his younger brother. In the past, Yan Yue had been abroad and refused to return to China, and Ye Cheng himself was busy with his future, and the two did not have much contact. Now that Yan Yue has returned to China, Ye Cheng is willing to help Yan Yue wherever he can.

    Yan Yue hung up the phone and lowered his eyes, he knew that this kind of behavior was inappropriate, and the boy would definitely be angry if he found out. But thinking of the young man's preoccupied appearance, he couldn't control his behavior, he just wanted to know what happened to the young man?

    Lu Lingxi had already figured out micro gardening when she got off work. Du Lin is well-intentioned, and he also likes micro-gardening, but for him now, it is not realistic to give out 200,000 all at once. He didn't want to touch Wang Shuxiu's savings, he hoped that she could keep some money by her side, and he didn't want Wang Shuxiu to go out and borrow money in a low voice for him. Anyway, he is still young, if Du Lin handed over the gardening shop to someone else, he can stay and work hard. If he can't stay, he will find another related job, work hard for a few years to save some money, and work hard to open his own gardening shop. Besides, he still has a white panel, as long as he works hard, it will not be bad in the future.

    Lu Lingxi took Da Hei and trot all the way home, Wang Shuxiu just had a rest and didn't go out, and it was rare for the mother and son to get together for dinner.

    "Go, wash your hands quickly."

    Wang Shuxiu counted the time and waited for Lu Lingxi to get home. At this time, her scrambled eggs and tomatoes had just come out of the pot, and she could smell a sweet and sour aroma from afar. The tomatoes in this dish were picked by Wang Shuxiu from the backyard. Originally, Lu Lingxi said that she wanted to grow tomatoes, but she was just playing around with Lu Lingxi, but she didn't expect the little **** to actually grow them, and they tasted quite good. In just a few days of work, Wang Shuxiu watched the tomatoes in the backyard grow from the size of a thumb to the size of two fists.

    Hearing Wang Shuxiu's order, Lu Lingxi obediently agreed. He first squatted on the ground and wiped Da Hei's paws, then went to wash his hands and helped Wang Shuxiu set the bowl.

    The dinner for the mother and son was not complicated. Wang Shuxiu fried an egg and tomato, bought half a roast chicken, mixed a cold dish, and boiled some white porridge. It's a simple home-cooked meal, but it's mouth-watering when made by Wang Shuxiu. Especially her fried eggs and tomatoes, very sweet and sour. Lu Lingxi took tomatoes and drank three bowls of porridge in one go.

    "The tomatoes grown in the backyard grow really well. The next time you meet the person who gave you the seeds, remember to thank them."

    Wang Shuxiu said something while serving porridge to Lu Lingxi. She saw that the tomatoes were almost red that day, so she washed one and ate it. Unexpectedly, tomatoes tasted sweet in the mouth, juicy and refreshing. After eating, I couldn't hold back and ate another one. The aftertaste of tomatoes was in my mouth until I went to work. Later, as long as she was at home, she would wash and eat tomatoes when she had nothing to do, even cooking with all kinds of tomatoes.

    Yesterday she went to work and picked a few tomatoes to eat at night, but as soon as she took them out, she was robbed of one. After eating, colleagues asked Wang Shuxiu where they bought them. The tomatoes tasted so good that they were eaten as fruits. Wang Shuxiu proudly showed that she was planted by her son for a long time, and was not unexpectedly envied by her colleagues, who praised her for having a good son. Thinking of this, Wang Shuxiu felt that since the little **** lost his memory, life has become more comfortable, which is much more enjoyable than before.

    Lu Lingxi took the bowl from Wang Shuxiu, smiled and said nothing.

    Wang Shuxiu glanced at him and suddenly thought of something, and said lightly, "The old **** lost his bet again, this time he owes a little more, and was sent by Xiao Feng to the northwest to dig coal."

    Lu Lingxi: "...does it matter?"

    Wang Shuxiu snorted, "What's the matter, the old **** has nothing to do with us, and the divorce certificate is not a white-collar worker. Besides, I heard that Xiao Feng's hometown is quite formal in mining, Insurance has everything, eat and drink to take care of them, just do some work and not die."

    Last time, when Lu Yishui owed money, he shouted that Brother Feng wanted to send him to dig coal and kill him. He has been raised by Wang Shuxiu for so many years, and it has become a habit to eat and be lazy. Maybe in his eyes, digging coal is really worse than death. Lu Lingxi actually doesn't understand Lu Yishui's psychology. Is gambling so fun? He likes gambling so much, to the point that he would rather abandon his wife and children and be kidnapped everywhere? Lu Lingxi didn't know what to say, so he lowered his head and said nothing.

    Wang Shuxiu left the dining table and cleaned up the kitchen when she was full. Lu Lingxi secretly took the chicken legs that no one ate to Da Hei. Da Hei took a smart look at the kitchen, bit the chicken leg and ran to the backyard.

    Yihang climbed over the wall and came in and saw Da Hei nibbling on a chicken leg, picking a tomato and biting while shouting to Lu Lingxi: "The third child, your dog's life is really good, every day Eat chicken thighs."

    Lu Lingxi: "…"

    Wang Shuxiu poked her head out of the kitchen and glared at Lu Lingxi, pouted at Lu Lingxi's shy expression, and gestured, "If you don't eat chicken, take it to Da Hei. Little The **** is playing tricks with your mother and me."

    Lu Lingxi flattered Wang Shuxiu with a big smile, Wang Shuxiu couldn't do anything about him, she glared at him and went back to clean up the kitchen.

    Wang Shuxiu stopped him when he had to clean up the dishes after dinner, "I'll come, you and Yi Hang go play." She felt a little distressed for Lu Lingxi. Yi Hang is bigger than Lu Lingxi, and he just hangs out every day. Lu Lingxi has been at work for more than half a month, and he has to come back to read at night. I heard that he often sees it in the middle of the night. In the past, when the little **** followed Yi Hang, she thought that the little **** was not good enough. Now that the little **** is good enough, she began to feel bad for the little **** again.

    Wang Shuxiu drove the two out of the kitchen, and Lu Lingxi sat on the steps with her long legs hanging down, watching Da Hei eat chicken. Yi Hang washed another tomato and asked vaguely, "Did my cousin look for you, what happened to the micro gardening?"

    "I found it. Sister Du wants me to take over the store, but I have no money."

    It is a pity for Yihang, "How much?"

    "Two hundred thousand."

    Yi Hang touched his pocket, he only had a few hundred dollars in total, and he was too embarrassed to talk about making it together for Lu Lingxi. "You didn't tell aunty...sister?"

    Lu Lingxi couldn't help laughing when she heard that Yi Hang changed his words halfway.

    "My mother doesn't have much money anymore. It's not easy for her to save some money. She has to save it for urgent matters. Don't tell my mother about this."

    "I know." Yi Hang grabbed Lu Lingxi's neck, squeezed beside him and said casually, "If only there was a way to get money quickly."

    Lu Lingxi thought of the spring orchid and planned to go to the flower market tomorrow.
