Xiao Feng and Wang Shuxiu are together thanks to the matchmaker "Dayu".
As the saying goes, heavy rains keep guests. Xiao Feng never thought that he would be stuck in Xiaohua Family Restaurant by a heavy rain. When it started to rain, Xiao Feng hesitated for a few seconds and didn't leave. On the one hand, he wanted to accompany Wang Shuxiu for a while, and on the other hand, he didn't take the heavy rain seriously and thought he would leave after it stopped. Who knew that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, with no sign of stopping at all. The water on the road was directly above the calves, and it was impossible to go out. Not to mention Xiao Feng himself, Wang Shuxiu was also worried about him leaving, especially since Xiao Feng was planning to go back to the vegetable greenhouse. It was dark and rainy, and the road was difficult to walk. When Wang Shuxiu stopped him, Xiao Feng naturally stayed.
Wang Shuxiu had always understood Xiao Feng's thoughts. She used to feel uncomfortable because of the existence of the chess and card room. Later, Xiao Feng closed the chess and card room, and Lin Mei kept whispering in her ear that she should find someone. After hearing this many times, Wang Shuxiu's thoughts began to loosen. Although she was unwilling to admit that a woman could not live without a man, Lin Mei was right. She was still young, and it would be no problem for her to live to sixty or seventy according to her current physical condition. If she had been alone for the next twenty or thirty years, it would be a bit sad. And if someone who didn't know the inside story thought that she had been guarding for Lu Yishui, she would be sick to death!
Wang Shuxiu figured it out, but she still felt a little uncomfortable with Xiao Feng. Lin Mei didn't think much about it and enthusiastically helped Wang Shuxiu to greet him. But to be honest, Wang Shuxiu's conditions were a bit mediocre. To say that her conditions were poor, Wang Shuxiu's face was here, and everyone who met her would be satisfied. To say that her conditions were good, Wang Shuxiu was old, divorced, and had a child, and she didn't have a job, and her family ran a small restaurant, so she couldn't compare to those who had formal and stable jobs.
Lin Mei was a little worried about Wang Shuxiu, but Wang Shuxiu didn't care. On the contrary, Xiao Feng heard that Lin Mei helped introduce Wang Shuxiu to a date, so he went to the small restaurant three times a day. He didn't say anything, just followed Wang Shuxiu slowly, and helped her with any work. Sometimes when there were many customers, or there were people he knew among the customers, Xiao Feng never hesitated and came out to greet them calmly. People who didn't know him would think that the small restaurant was opened by Xiao Feng himself.
After a while, Lin Mei realized that Brother Feng was interesting, and Wang Shuxiu was not completely unresponsive. The two of them looked good, but they just needed a little push. Lin Mei thought that Wang Shuxiu was still unsure, and Xiao Feng probably saw it, so he simply said nothing and went about his own business every day. After he was done, he would report to the small restaurant. He washed vegetables, cleaned up, and occasionally greeted customers, proving with his actions that Xiaohua, the proprietress, was contracted by him.
The two of them just got along in a tepid way until the heavy rain when they had a breakthrough opportunity. Accustomed to being alone all the time, now there is someone by her side during the thunder and lightning, helping to close the windows and lock the doors to check if the house is leaking, Wang Shuxiu's heart settled down immediately, and she recognized Xiao Feng's existence from the bottom of her heart.
She was making rapid progress. Lu Lingxi, who was far away in Lingshui Village, didn't know that he had a new father. He was squatting in front of Dahei and teasing him happily. The man and the dog were "reunited after a long time" and were very intimate. They completely ignored Yan Yue who was standing beside them. It was rare that Yan Yue didn't feel jealous. In fact, he missed Dahei a little after not seeing him for a few days. Seeing that Lu Lingxi's mind was all on Dahei, Yan Yue smiled indulgently, opened the trunk, took out the tools inside, and began to pack up the things he brought this time.
In addition to picking up Dahei, the two came here to transplant the previously propagated Evolved Vallisneria to the bottom of the Lingshui River, and to dig up some more Vallisneria to cultivate. Lu Lingxi had already tested it at home, and the Evolved Vallisneria had a very significant effect on absorbing cyanide in the water. He compared the concentration of cyanide in the water before and after the transplantation of Vallisneria, and the latter concentration was significantly reduced, and the water quality was also clearer. This result made Lu Lingxi very happy, and even Yan Yue was a little surprised.
Lu Lingxi was simple-minded, thinking only that the Lingshui River could be purified, but Yan Yue calculated the huge economic value of it. After the bitter grass evolved, Yan Yue specifically checked the river records of Fengcheng. According to the distribution of several industrial zones in Fengcheng, there must be many rivers facing the same pollution as the Lingshui River. In the eyes of the government, how to solve the pollution will be a big problem, but in the eyes of Yan Yue, this is a huge business opportunity. Yan Yue plans to use the Lingshui River as a pilot. If the purification is successful, he will talk to Brother Ye San about it.
When Yan Yue packed up, Lu Lingxi and Dahei were almost done being intimate. He looked at Yan Yue a little embarrassedly, and stood on tiptoe to kiss Yan Yue on the face. Yan Yue smiled, and put his big hand on Lu Lingxi's head, rubbing it lovingly.
"Xiao Xi and Da Hei stay in the flower garden. I'm going to talk to Uncle Li about the house."
"Oh." Lu Lingxi nodded obediently.
The house Yan Yue was talking about was the courtyard where the two lived. When Du Lin transferred the courtyard and the flower garden to Lu Lingxi, the lease contract between her and the owner of the courtyard was still three years away from expiration. Lu Lingxi didn't think much about it at first, and because he had no money, he still followed Du Lin's lease contract at the time. But now because of the existence of the big willow tree, Lingshui Village has changed a lot. If the other party doesn't rent it to them anymore, it will be troublesome. Yan Yue thought about buying the house and signing a new agreement for the land of the flower garden behind it, changing the original 5 years to the longest 30 years.
In fact, it is not difficult to re-sign the contract for the flower garden, but the difficulty lies in the resale of the courtyard. Strictly speaking, the transfer of homesteads in rural China is not allowed, but in fact, there are many private transfers, and it depends on each person's means.
The reason why Yan Yue wanted to find Uncle Li was because the owner of the courtyard was one of Uncle Li's cousins. The old man had gone to another place with his children a few years ago, and the courtyard had been vacant until Du Lin rented it. At that time, it was Uncle Li who had arranged this matter, and Yan Yue hoped that Uncle Li would help arrange it again. The twists and turns in it could not be explained clearly for the time being, and Yan Yue did not want Lu Lingxi to worry about these things, so he simply did not take him with him.
As soon as Yan Yue left, Lu Lingxi felt bored. He thought for a long time that there was nothing to do in the flower garden, so he secretly took Dahei to Lingshui River.
Lu Lingxi was fully equipped with a small shovel, a bucket, gloves, and a mask, all specially prepared for this trip. With the experience of digging bitter grass last time, Lu Lingxi felt that he would not get covered in mud like last time. After carrying the bucket of evolved bitter grass to the river, Lu Lingxi did not rush to transplant it. Instead, he first used a small shovel to clean up the stones and glass slag in the area to be transplanted, and then shoveled the nearby silt for a long time and dug a few suitable holes.
One, two, three, four, five... Lu Lingxi did not plant these bitter grasses in one place, but evenly distributed them along the river bank. When he finished the last bitter grass, a white panel suddenly floated out, and two lines of green words appeared below.
The Vallisneria ecological community is formed, water purification +50%, reward plant heart +500
Do homoplasmic plants select for homoplasmic evolution?
Lu Lingxi was stunned for a moment, then quickly chose yes.
As he confirmed the decision, a winding river appeared on the white panel. The river was black, and the area was exactly where he planted the bitter grass. With the example of the willow ecological community, Lu Lingxi was not unfamiliar with the new ecological community. Perhaps it was the difference between solid soil and flowing water. The bitter grass ecological community did not directly purify the underground soil like the willow ecological community, but the water evolution effect was +50%.
Lu Lingxi was actually very satisfied with this. With these bitter herbs purifying the water, the roots of the big willow tree should be able to extend here soon, and the scope of soil purification will not be limited to this side of the Lingshui River but will continue to spread to the other side. He was so absorbed in his thoughts that Dahei, who had been squatting quietly beside him, suddenly stood up and roared softly at his back.
Lu Lingxi understood that Dahei was giving him a warning. He paused and turned to look. Not far behind him, a yellow dog jumped out from the direction of the village. This dog did not look like a domestic dog, but a stray dog.
The big yellow dog was obviously very surprised when he saw Dahei. He arched his back and confronted Dahei for dozens of seconds before slowly lying on the ground, showing an attitude of submission. Dahei narrowed his eyes, still looking alert, and did not relax immediately. Lu Lingxi didn't quite understand Dahei's reaction. He remembered that Dahei didn't have this attitude towards the dogs in the village. Was there any difference with this big yellow dog?
"Ah Huang."
As the two dogs, one black and one yellow, were in a stalemate, a little boy who looked about five or six years old ran from the village, calling the big yellow dog's name. The boy didn't notice the big black dog until he got closer, and pointed at it in surprise and called out, "Big black dog."
Facing the little boy, Dahei's attitude was not as ferocious as before. He squatted on the ground quietly, and his eyes became gentle.
The little boy turned his head and saw Lu Lingxi. His big round eyes turned around and he asked curiously, "Is the big black dog your dog, brother?"
I don't know if it's because of the sun, the little boy looks a little dark, but his eyes are big and bright, very smart. Lu Lingxi nodded and smiled kindly at the little boy. "Dahei, come back." He greeted.
Dahei shook his ears, stood up and trotted to Lu Lingxi's side, squatting in front of him. Lu Lingxi habitually touched Dahei's head, and the little boy's eyes lit up and he shouted excitedly, "Brother, you talk to the big black dog, can you understand what the big black dog says?"
Lu Lingxi was stunned for a moment, and was unable to react to the logic behind the little boy's words. Talking to Dahei = understanding what Dahei said?
While he was still confused, the little boy excitedly said, "I can, too. I can understand what Ah Huang said." Without waiting for Lu Lingxi to respond, the little boy happily said, "Ah Huang."
The big yellow dog barked softly.
The little boy's face puffed up, and he said to Lu Lingxi: "Ah Huang is a little scared of your big black dog, can you make the big black dog stop biting Ah Huang?"
He looked so adorable with his puffed cheeks. Lu Lingxi laughed and nodded in agreement.
The little boy looked even happier, and approached Lu Lingxi without any shyness, looking at his gloves curiously. "Brother, are you playing in the water? Ah Huang said the water is poisonous and won't let me play in the river. Last time, Ah Huang drank water from the river and had a stomachache for a long time."
Lu Lingxi paused after touching Dahei's hand, with a strange expression on his face, "Did Ah Huang really say that?"
He didn't take the little boy's words that he could understand the big yellow dog seriously. Dogs are very spiritual animals. People who keep dogs for a long time will basically form a tacit understanding with the dog, or a unique feeling. Dogs can understand the owner's words, understand the owner's instructions, and even understand the owner's eyes, so he thought the little boy was the same. Of course, Dahei is an exception. In Lu Lingxi's heart, Dahei is unique.
But when Lu Lingxi heard the little boy say that the river water was poisonous, he became a little uncertain.
The little boy nodded vigorously and looked at the big yellow dog. The big yellow dog seemed to be very afraid of the big black dog. It avoided the big black dog from a distance and barked at the little boy. The little boy blinked and said softly, "Ah Huang said that he likes you very much, brother. I like you too."
Lu Lingxi curled his eyes and smiled slightly.
The little boy rarely found someone who believed him and was willing to listen to him talk about Ah Huang. He sat next to Lu Lingxi and talked non-stop. Ah Huang was not his dog. His grandmother did not allow him to have a dog. He picked up Ah Huang under the big willow tree last time, when Ah Huang had a stomachache. He liked Ah Huang very much. He could understand what Ah Huang said, but no one believed him. His friends all thought he was a liar, and even his mother did not believe him.
Lu Lingxi had little experience with children, so he just listened to what the little boy said. But the more the little boy talked, the more confused he looked. Even he began to believe that the little boy could really understand what the big yellow dog said. Perhaps because of the example of Dahei, Lu Lingxi felt that it would not be difficult to accept another "big yellow". Just because he could accept it, it didn't mean that others could accept it. Lu Lingxi thought about it, rubbed the little boy's head, and said seriously: "Don't tell others that you can understand what Ah Huang says in the future."
"Why?"
Lu Lingxi found an excuse, "You see, I can understand what Dahei says, but this is a little secret between Dahei and me. You can also treat it as a little secret between you and Ah Huang. How about it?"
The little boy nodded ignorantly and asked, "Is this also my brother and I's little secret?"
Lu Lingxi hummed and nodded heavily.
