"Then, which one is a lotus flower? Which one is a water lily?"
The little girl only noticed that the flowers in the lake had particularly large leaves and flower buds, and she didn't really see anything different about them.
Yue Jiuyue pointed to the lake and said:
“Little girl, look at the leaves on the water. The leaves that float on the water are lotus flowers, and the leaves that grow above the water are water lilies.”
That's all she knows how to distinguish them; as for how to differentiate them by looking at the flowers, she really doesn't know. She only knows that lotus flowers only have blossoms, while water lilies have seeds, pods, and roots.
"oh!"
The little girl nodded repeatedly, but it was unclear whether she understood or not.
Never mind, she'll gradually figure it out over time, especially when it comes to eating, she'll definitely remember it.
"From now on, you absolutely must not come here alone, understand? The water in this lotus pond is quite deep; you could fool two of you!"
As Yue Jiuyue led Xiaoman'er home, she reminded her of safety precautions, such as not going to the lakeside alone, not going up the mountain alone, and not being alone...
If this weren't a rural area, she would have reminded Xiaoman'er not to go out alone, but that reminder wasn't appropriate here, so Yue Jiuyue didn't mention it.
Because of a pot of fish, Xiaoman'er suddenly became close to Yue Jiuyue again, and directly became Yue Jiuyue's little tail, following her wherever Yue Jiuyue went.
Lin Chaodong, his family of three, and Da Niu, who went to the prefectural city, were visiting for the first time and were unfamiliar with the place, but had experience visiting the county city before. So, they stayed at an inn on the first night and then started inquiring about cheap rentals. They planned to rent a place to stay, since there must be more good doctors in the prefectural city, and they wanted to see as many as possible so that their trip would not be in vain.
Fortunately, Da Niu was with them this time, so Lin Chaodong didn't have to go through the trouble of finding a house himself. The next day, he took Liu Shi and Da Zhuang to the clinic to see a doctor and asked Da Zhuang to inquire about cheaper courtyard houses at the dental clinic.
This was Da Zhuang's first time going out, and he was entrusted with an important task by Lin Chaodong. To be honest, he was flustered and reluctant, but he had no right to refuse.
Da Niu, trembling with fear, finally found out the location of the brokerage firm. He then went with the broker to see several courtyards, muttering the basic details of each courtyard as he squatted by the entrance of the inn, waiting for Lin Chaodong and the others to return so he could tell them.
As a result, they waited until it got dark.
Not to mention that Da Niu didn't eat lunch or drink water all day, after such a long wait, he had long forgotten almost everything he had managed to remember about the courtyard.
"Tell me, what can you do? I asked you to come along to help me, not for me to take care of you!"
Lin Chaodong lashed out at Da Niu.
Lin Chaodong was filled with anger and resentment.
It was his first time going to the county town. He had been there before and knew a few people there, so he could ask for help if needed. Although his illness hadn't been cured, he didn't feel that going out was inconvenient at the time.
The second time was to go to the county town.
At that time, he was completely unfamiliar with the place and had to do everything himself. Because he was in a hurry to see a doctor, he only asked about the price of the dentist's courtyard and randomly chose the cheapest one. When he got there, he found that the courtyard was uninhabitable!
