Pastoral Daily Life

    Not long after the meal, Yan Yue took the bag of tomatoes that Lu Lingxi picked for him to say goodbye. Although he wanted to wait for a while, he also knew that he could not eat hot tofu in a hurry. Being late will only arouse Wang Shuxiu's suspicion, but it's better to keep flowing.

    Sending Yan Yue away, Lu Lingxi started the daily watering routine. The big black-eyed squatted aside and looked at him, and his small eyes occasionally glanced at the tomatoes around him eagerly. Lu Lingxi's heart softened when he saw it. He put down the water pipe and squatted in front of Da Hei, looking at Da Hei with a serious face: "You know, it's for your own good not to let you eat tomatoes."

    After hearing that Da Hei likes to eat tomatoes, Brother Dong once warned Lu Lingxi that although a Chinese pastoral dog like Da Hei has a better stomach than an ordinary pet dog, he should not eat it indiscriminately. Things, if you are not careful, you can easily get enteritis and diarrhea. Recalling that when Da Hei was first sent to Brother Dong by Yan Yue, he was skinny and scrawny, but now Lu Lingxi has managed to make him fatter. , especially enteritis such as vomiting and diarrhea affecting appetite. Therefore, he kept Brother Dong's admonition in mind and began to limit the number of tomatoes that Da Hei eats every day.

    Da Hei seemed to understand what he said and let out a short cry.

    Lu Lingxi rolled his eyes, raised his hand and touched Da Hei's head, and praised: "But Da Hei is very obedient today, so I can reward him with half a tomato."

    Da Hei ate a lot at night, and Lu Lingxi didn't dare to let Da Hei eat more. Half a tomato is a relief for Dahei, so it shouldn't be a big problem. Lu Lingxi watched Da Hei's ears tremble, his eyes lit up suddenly, his light brown pupils reflected his figure, full of closeness and trust.

    Lu Lingxi smiled softly, washed his hands, picked a large tomato, cut it in half, he and Da Hei were half.

    Da Hei narrowed his eyes contentedly, and quietly squatted at Lu Lingxi's feet.

    After eating the tomatoes and watering, Lu Lingxi took the **** and washed the mud on its paws, picked up the book on the chair and prepared to take it back to the house to read.

    Wang Shuxiu just came out of the shower, she stopped him hesitantly when she saw Lu Lingxi entering the room, she wanted to talk to Lu Lingxi about her resignation. Wang Shuxiu didn't want Lu Lingxi to make up her mind, but their mother and son depended on each other for life at home. There was no man to be the backbone of the family. Anything could only be discussed by the two of them.

    She is also forty-two this year. In Lin Mei's words, she is not young anymore. It's not that Wang Shuxiu doesn't know this principle, but she really doesn't know what to do after resigning. She can't be raised by a little bastard, right? She is still young and doesn't want to be a burden to Lu Lingxi. Besides, Lu Lingxi is eighteen, and it is time to get married and have children. Wang Shuxiu is still thinking of saving money to buy a suite for Lu Lingxi. Today's little girls are all powerful, and few are willing to live with their mother-in-law, and she is not the kind of person who is annoying, so she still has to work to make money. It's just that what Lin Mei said was right, her body couldn't stand it anymore. In case there is a headache and the brain collapses, Wang Shuxiu will feel distressed when she thinks about the little **** serving him alone.

    Wang Shuxiu still couldn't make up her mind to resign.

    Lu Lingxi didn't think as much as Wang Shuxiu thought, getting married and buying a house is too far away. He thinks that he and Wang Shuxiu live together very well, and as long as he works hard, the micro-horticultural business will slowly get on the right track, and it will definitely not be a problem for him to support Wang Shuxiu. Wang Shuxiu has worked hard for so many years, and it is time to take a good rest.

    Wang Shuxiu laughed and slapped Lu Lingxi on the head. "The little **** will say something nice. You think it's good to live with me now. When you have a daughter-in-law, you should think I'm an eyesore."

    Lu Lingxi wanted to refute, Wang Shuxiu joked: "Okay, you can find a daughter-in-law first."

    Lu Lingxi: "…"

    The mother and son talked for a long time, but they still didn't reach a consensus. Wang Shuxiu saw that it was getting late, and rushed to Lu Lingxi to go to bed first. Even if she wants to resign, she has to report a month in advance. It's still early.

    Lu Lingxi took Da Hei back to the house, still thinking about Wang Shuxiu. He didn't know anything about outside work, and he didn't know what Wang Shuxiu could do after resigning. Why don't you ask Big Brother Yan tomorrow? Brother Yan must know more than him in this regard. Lu Lingxi made up his mind, calmed down and started reading every day.

    "Huh? Where did that paper go?"

    Lu Lingxi was flipping through "The Encyclopedia of Flowers", he remembered that there was a piece of his annotation in it, and there was half a large black picture that was not finished. But he couldn't find this piece of paper after searching for a long time. Could it be that it was caught in another book, and he remembered it wrongly? Lu Lingxi looked puzzled, but didn't think much about it. It wasn't an important record anyway. I'll look it up in other books tomorrow. After reading the book for a while, Lu Lingxi was ready to go to bed. He and Yi Hang made an appointment to go to the flower garden tomorrow morning, so he had to get up early.

    The next morning, Lu Lingxi woke up at 5 o'clock. As soon as he opened his eyes, he heard Da Hei's low whimper. Da Hei couldn't hold it anymore. He ate too much last night. He wanted to pull the cake in the morning, but he couldn't open the bolt on the balcony, and he didn't want to wake Lu Lingxi, so he could only bear it pitifully and squatted down. She was sobbing miserably at the door.

    Lu Lingxi felt a little distressed, and hurriedly opened the balcony door for it, and the black rushed out like an arrow, and Lu Lingxi walked out with him. Seeing Da Hei skillfully run to the corner, Lu Lingxi couldn't help but laugh while feeling relieved.

    The air in the backyard in the morning is very fresh, and it is really refreshing to take a sniff. Lu Lingxi stretched out and habitually sent out a mental scan. The white panel suddenly appeared and floated in front of him.

    “Second-generation tomatoes are collected and planted successfully, and the reward of Plant Heart +50.”

    Lu Lingxi looked at the white panel suspiciously, was the second generation of tomatoes planted successfully? What does it mean? The mental scan swept across the backyard, and a young bud that just emerged below the balcony stretched its leaves and was fixed on the white panel.

    Plant Name: Tomato

    Plant Needs: Water

    Plant Viability: High

    Lu Lingxi squatted down in surprise, how could a tomato grow here. He remembered... The memories of last night flashed through his mind, and Lu Lingxi suddenly thought of the half of the tomato he and Da Hei shared here. Could it be that the seeds inside fell to the ground and grew out on their own?

    This guess made Lu Lingxi a little excited, and the system rewarded only a small packet of tomato seeds. Although he deliberately kept half of it when he planted it last time, the total number is there, and it is estimated that it will be gone after another crop. He does not know when the system will reward it. If these tomatoes can be kept for their own seeds, wouldn't they not have to worry about seeds in the future? Lu Lingxi thought of this and immediately went back to the house to find the book on tomato planting. He remembered that it mentioned how to collect seeds. It's just that there's been a lot of things going on recently, and he hasn't had time to take a serious look.

    Soon, Lu Lingxi came out with a book. He picked a ripe tomato according to the above instructions. First, he removed the pulp and only the seeds were left. Then he went to the kitchen to find a piece of gauze to wrap the seeds, and then soaked a glass of water in it and washed it carefully. . After the pulp and some other filaments covered on the seeds were washed, Lu Lingxi took out the gauze and carefully dried the seeds that were already well-defined on a piece of white paper. According to the book, the dried seeds are the seeds of tomatoes and can be planted directly.

    Lu Lingxi carefully pressed the white paper on the windowsill, making sure it would not be blown away by the wind. After all this was done, he had time to return to the backyard to continue studying the newly grown seedling. The book says that the tomatoes that are bought on the market are basically hybrids, and they are not considered to be normal mature, the seeds left behind are easy to mutate, and the effect of growing is not good. But his tomatoes are rewarded by the system, so there shouldn't be this problem, right?

    Lu Lingxi can't remember what the first batch of tomatoes looked like now, but the growth rate of this seedling should be similar to the first batch of tomatoes. In fact, it doesn't matter if it grows slowly, as long as the taste remains the same. In order to prevent this seedling from being trampled by Da Hei as grass, Lu Lingxi specially warned Da Hei. He carved out a small piece of land around the seedlings, ready to come back at night to plant all the dried seeds. If the growth of these seeds is no problem, they can continue to eat tomatoes in the future.

    "Are you there?" Yi Hang's voice sounded outside the fence.

    Lu Lingxi agreed.

    Yi Hang climbed over the wall and came in and saw Lu Lingxi squatting there with mud in his hands, "What do you want to plant?" Yi Hang asked curiously.

    Lu Lingxi showed him the seedling that grew and explained the tomato seedlings. Yi Hang's eyes suddenly lit up, "Can you really plant?"

    Lu Lingxi nodded uncertainly, "It should be possible." The system has indicated that the planting was successful.

    Easy Hang pulled Lu Lingxi excitedly, "Third, the tomatoes I will eat all my life depend on you."

    Lu Lingxi: "…"

    After washing her hands, Lu Lingxi packed up and took Da Hei and followed Yi Hang out the door. Xiao Jinbei, who was about to retire from Yi Hang's family, stopped in front of the building, and Yi Hang said proudly: "Don't look at the broken car, the speed is great."

    Lu Lingxi smiled and nodded. Yi Hang got into the car and started the car, and said casually, "Have you noticed the weeds near your building? Are you fertilizing them secretly?"

    Lu Lingxi actually noticed the problem that Yi Hang said. As far as the weeds around Building No. 3, especially around Sanmen, are particularly prosperous, he has heard the neighbors complain several times. I feel that these grasses are growing wildly, and I don't know what's going on.

    "But it's not just weeds, Aunt Wang, you know, it's the old lady upstairs in your house. My mother even heard her show off yesterday that it was the cabbage grown on the balcony this year. Very good, you can eat it in a few days. Che, she has never seen the tomatoes you planted, and when she has seen them, she will know what it means to grow well." Yi Hang continued.

    Lu Lingxi smiled and didn't speak, his eyes swept over the weeds outside, and he thought of the white panel for some reason. It doesn't matter, right?

    The author has something to say: I saw some readers complain that the teenagers used too much in the text, so I explained it weakly. Every time I use a teenager, it's Yan Yue's mentality. I actually hesitated whether to write Lu Lingxi's name directly or use the teenager to refer to it. I don't know if it's my problem, but using Lu Lingxi's name directly feels a bit blunt. I will pay attention to this issue in the future, and try to use the name directly.
