The next morning, Yan Yue showed up at the door of 301 again on time.
After yesterday's experience, Wang Shuxiu was much calmer about his appearance. Although she still felt awkward, she could only sigh silently when she saw the unconcealed joy in the little bastard's eyes, and acquiesced to Yan Yue coming to pick up the little bastard to go to the store.
Because he had promised to accompany Lu Lingxi to pick up Dahei yesterday, Yan Yue did not go to An Jie's place but stayed at Micro Gardening. After a busy morning, he was about to take Lu Lingxi out for dinner when Yi Hang drove over in a small Jinbei.
"Hey, why is Yi Hang here?"
Lu Lingxi looked at the time. It was lunchtime, so the restaurant was packed. Wang Shuxiu was not there, so Yi Hang was the only one who could take care of the guests. Why did he suddenly drive to the restaurant? He was a little worried that something might have happened in the restaurant, and then he saw Yi Hang rushing over with two large thermos buckets in his hands, jumping out of the car.
"Third brother, eat quickly while the food is hot." Yi Hang said as he gestured to the thermos bucket in his hand.
Lu Lingxi was bewildered, "Are you here specially to deliver food?"
Yi Hang nodded, found the table at the door and opened the thermos bucket he brought. "They are all my cooking, how about you try it? Is it much different from Sister Xiaohua's?" He said this, but his face had an expression of "If you dare to say no, we will end our friendship in a minute". Lu Lingxi looked at him and laughed, but still didn't understand why Yi Hang would think of bringing him lunch.
"It was Sister Xiaohua who ordered me to do this. She said that you haven't been eating well these past few days and you look thinner." Yi Hang climbed onto Lu Lingxi's neck and deliberately said, "Come here, let me see where you've lost weight?"
The two of them were playing around as usual. Yan Yue felt a little jealous when he saw Yi Hang being so affectionate towards Lu Lingxi, but he couldn't say anything. He could only stop Yi Hang calmly and said to Lu Lingxi, "Xiaoxi, eat quickly, or it will get cold soon."
The thermos buckets Yi Hang brought were all three-layered, with the top two layers containing the dishes he cooked, and the bottom layer containing rice. He smiled and said to Yan Yue, "Brother Yan will also eat together. Sister Xiaohua said that Brother Yan might be there too, so I brought two portions on purpose."
Hearing Yi Hang say that it was Wang Shuxiu's order, Lu Lingxi smiled with curved eyebrows. He said that his mother was hard-mouthed but soft-hearted, and her anger was only temporary. Yan Yue was a little surprised, but mostly happy. In any case, Wang Shuxiu's attitude was getting softer and softer, which was a good sign.
At home in the community, Xiao Feng listened to Wang Shuxiu calling and instructing Yi Hang to cook a dish for Lu Lingxi and send it over at noon. Before hanging up the phone, she added with a stern face that Yan Yue might be there too, so he should prepare two more dishes.
Xiao Feng smiled and shook his head. Wang Shuxiu turned around and saw his expression. She immediately became angry and raised her eyebrows. "What are you laughing at!"
Xiao Feng immediately showed weakness, "Where am I laughing? I was just happy to hear that you care about Xiaoxi."
Wang Shuxiu gave him a glare, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. I'm not worried that Yan Yue won't have food to eat. I'm worried that Yi Hang didn't bring enough food, and that the little bastard wouldn't want to eat it himself and pushed it to Yan Yue."
"Okay, this is all for Xiaoxi's good." Xiao Feng coaxed Wang Shuxiu.
Wang Shuxiu said confidently, "It's all for the little bastard's own good."
Xiao Feng sneered in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face. The more he got along with Xiao Hua, the more he found Xiao Hua's good points. Although Xiao Hua usually yelled at him, she was actually a person with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. With all kinds of thoughts running through his mind, Xiao Feng's hands were also busy. He cracked seven or eight walnuts for Wang Shuxiu to eat in one breath. "Here, eat a walnut, it's nutritious."
Wang Shuxiu took the peeled walnut kernels with a puffed face, thought about it and started laughing to herself.
After lunch, Wang Shuxiu received a call from Lu Lingxi. Hearing the little bastard saying thank you to mom without any reason on the phone, Wang Shuxiu snorted and pretended not to understand what Lu Lingxi meant. It was not until Lu Lingxi said that he was going to pick up Dahei in the evening and visit the flower garden by the way, and would come back tomorrow, that she said dissatisfiedly: "Little bastard, don't push your luck."
"Mom." Lu Lingxi called softly.
Wang Shuxiu held her breath and wanted to ignore Lu Lingxi, but she couldn't help but soften her heart, so she said reluctantly: "Come back early tomorrow."
"Well, thank you, Mom."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Lingxi happily reported the good news to Yan Yue. He was not going to the flower garden just to be with Yan Yue, but to bring back the mutant camellia. He and Mr. Zhang had agreed to check the pulse of his aunt tomorrow, and Mr. Zhang would definitely not ask for money. Lu Lingxi was embarrassed to ask Mr. Zhang to come specially, so he thought of giving the camellia to Mr. Zhang. He looked excited, and Yan Yue couldn't help but smile slightly.
Around five in the evening, Fang Lei drove over. As soon as he entered Micro Gardening, Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue's expressions became strange. Fang Lei knew what they were thinking without thinking. He touched the scratches on his face and said helplessly: "Laugh if you want to, this is all the work of Mr. Cat."
Yan Yue suppressed his laughter and asked, "How did you offend Xiao Hui?"
Fang Lei really thought about it seriously, "Does it count if I don't stand on Dahei's side when he's fighting with him?"
Lu Lingxi: “…”
Yan Yue laughed out loud when he heard this.
Speaking of which, although Xiao Hui was unreasonable and bullied Fang Lei in various ways, Fang Lei really loved Xiao Hui. Not to mention that Xiao Hui was smart and understood human nature, Xiao Hui had only been with him for a few days and helped solve a case. This case was somewhat related to Lu Lingxi, that is, the gangsters who wanted to use drugs to frame Lu Lingxi last time. Fang Lei's colleagues took them back and asked them about it, and followed the clues to find out that there was a small drug trafficking gang in Fengcheng.
When they went to arrest someone that day, Xiao Hui was there. No one expected that the other party had dug a basement on the first floor. If Xiao Hui hadn't discovered the basement, the other party would have hidden inside, and Fang Lei and his team would have had to work hard again. The case is still under trial, and Fang Lei is not convenient to tell Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue about the specific situation. But in his heart, he really regarded Xiao Hui as a partner. Even though Xiao Hui couldn't beat Da Hei every time and turned around to scratch him, he was not angry at all.
The three of them stayed in the store until six o'clock, and Fang Lei took them to the police dog base in Fengcheng. The stray dogs that Fang Lei adopted last time were kept here. When they entered the base, before Lu Lingxi got out of the car, he saw Dahei jumping out of the kennel, and the black figure ran over from a distance like a flash of lightning. Dahei rarely ran at full speed like this before, and he rushed to Lu Lingxi in an instant after a distance of several hundred meters.
"Big Black."
Dahei called out to Lu Lingxi affectionately, stood up, put his two front paws on Lu Lingxi's body, and excitedly stuck out his tongue at him. Lu Lingxi reached out and hugged Dahei. It was fine when he was not around, but when he saw Dahei, he realized how much he missed Dahei. Hearing the joy in Dahei's call, Lu Lingxi touched Dahei's head and promised, "I will never be separated from Dahei again."
Dahei narrowed his eyes and called out softly.
The man and the dog were very happy to meet again after a long separation. Even Xiao Hei came over to join in the fun, coiling on Da Hei's head and refusing to get down, which made Fang Lei laugh. When they came over, the police dogs at the base had just finished training. The stray dogs that Fang Lei brought were also trained together. Although these stray dogs were somewhat lacking in obedience, they surprised everyone in terms of understanding commands. In other words, these dogs were very human and could understand almost all commands without training.
The head of the base was a little unhappy at first, thinking that Fang Lei was slapping them in the face by bringing these stray dogs here. If it weren't for his good relationship with Fang Lei, he would have kicked him out long ago. But after a few days of training, the head of the base began to care more about Dahei than Fang Lei. Especially for Dahei, he liked him very much. He discussed with Fang Lei several times whether he could find Dahei's owner and ask him to stay in the base. If not, he could find a wife for Dahei, and it would definitely be good to have a litter of Dahei puppies.
Fang Lei told Lu Lingxi about the blind date for Dahei with a resentful look on his face, and joked: "Dahei is now the idol of the breeders at the base, and he is unattainable."
Lu Lingxi imagined the scene of the breeder leading a group of dogs to choose a wife for Dahei, and laughed for a long time while holding his stomach.
At night, they went to the flower garden. Dahei refused to leave Lu Lingxi when it was time to sleep. Yan Yue had no choice but to tolerate Dahei sleeping on the kang like he did at the beginning. Lu Lingxi specially boiled water to give Dahei a bath, and half-turned his body to hold Dahei. Dahei lay beside him, looking at him gently, licking his fingers from time to time. Yan Yue looked at the man and the dog with jealousy, feeling like a third party.
The next morning, the two had dinner at Uncle Li's house and prepared to go back to the city. Before leaving, Lu Lingxi deliberately went to see the big willow tree. After not seeing it for a few days, the big willow tree came back to life from its winter slumber. The tender green leaves sprouted from the branches and swayed gently in the wind. Not only the big willow tree, but the spring of the whole Lingshui Village came very early. Clusters of green grass emerged in the fields and corners of the yard, embellishing the still monotonous ground and conveying the breath of spring.
Uncle Li and Lu Lingxi said that this was only the case in Lingshui Village. Songjiazhuang, more than a dozen miles away, was still gray and empty. Not to mention the willow trees sprouting, there were not even a few weeds growing on the ground. The villagers all thought it was the blessing of the tree gods. Considering that the vegetables and fruits planted in the yard grew very well last year, he heard that several households were preparing to tidy up the abandoned land and plant something this year. If not for selling, then for family food.
He lovingly instructed Lu Lingxi, "Tell me what you want to eat. We can grow it in our yard."
Lu Lingxi nodded embarrassedly, remembering something. After the system started the evolution function last year, the vegetables and fruits planted in Grandpa Li's yard were basically ripe, and he had no chance to see if these vegetables and fruits could evolve. Later, Xiao Feng built a vegetable greenhouse. Although he had this idea, he never had the time to go. Besides, just like the evolution of green plants in the flower garden, you need to watch it frequently. If you only go once or twice, you may not be so lucky to encounter the plants in the evolution period. He also thought about whether he should grow something at home, but there were too many things to do in micro-gardening, so this matter has been delayed.
This time it was an opportunity. Lu Lingxi had always believed that as long as it was a plant, no matter what it was, it could evolve. Thinking about the seeds the system had rewarded him, he intuitively felt that they were the seeds that would evolve. Whether it was tomatoes or grapes, what he grew might be the final evolved form.
