Chapter 211 Planting orchids and releasing fish fry
But he had no intention of continuing to do this.
Now that things are settled, Su Heng wants to grow orchids, but she definitely can't handle it alone, so he just stays at home to look after them and help.
Shao Huadong also needs to write him a letter to let him know that the matter has been settled so that he won't be worried about it.
The two of them had a leisurely meal, and Lu Mingchuan went out to deal with the follow-up matters and talked to Li Dawei by the way.
Naturally, his case was reported to the police, but there was too much to investigate on Fu Yecheng's side, so the police did not have time to summon Li Dawei to take a statement yesterday.
After the matter is thoroughly investigated, the school leaders will let Li Dawei go back to work and give him compensation, even if it is just for show.
What Fu Yecheng did had a huge negative impact on the school, and they must find a way to restore their reputation.
When Lu Mingchuan came back after taking a walk outside, Su Heng had already found the orchid seeds.
Today is only Thursday, so she plans not to go back to school early. She will use these few days to germinate and plant the orchid seeds.
The one-acre vacant land in the southwest corner had been reclaimed by someone before. Now, when he heard that Su Heng wanted to cultivate flower seeds, Su Yue picked up a hoe and turned the land over carefully. He also went to the village to collect some fermented farm manure and buried it in advance.
"Planting flowers requires fertilizer, and you have to bury it deep to avoid burning the roots, but you can't use too much..."
Su Yue didn't know about the rough methods this girl used to grow flowers, and he was still teaching her his farming experience.
The principles of growing crops and growing flowers are actually the same.
Su Heng: "Dad, don't worry, your daughter used to be a researcher."
Su Yue thought about it and realized that he almost forgot that his daughter was a professional in this area.
"Then I won't show off. You know more than me." Su Yue smiled heartily and continued to make trouble.
Su Heng laughed and said, "How can you say that I'm showing off? What Dad told me were all the experiences of a veteran. They're called solid stuff."
Although Su Yue didn't understand what the dry goods and rare things were, he was coaxed into laughing, and his steps became much lighter when he worked.
The next day, the land was prepared and one acre of land was divided into several ridges, and Su Heng prepared to sow seeds.
This simple and crude step made Su Yue and Wen Shu speechless.
When they grow grains, they soak the seeds and grow seedlings first. Only coarse grains like corn do not need to be grown, but how can such precious flowers be sown directly on the ground?
Su Heng immediately anticipated what the two would say and said, "Don't worry, the seeds have already been soaked in water. I have an exclusive secret recipe. Just plant them directly."
After hearing what she said, the two of them had no choice but to sow the seeds with some doubt.
There are some things to pay attention to when sowing seeds. The spacing and other things have to be calculated in advance, but it’s not a big deal for Su Yue and Wen Shu.
Lu Mingchuan carried Qiuqiu on his back while they worked together, and Qiuqiu watched with great interest.
Everyone in the family was quite skillful and it took them most of the day to finish the job.
Just after the planting was completed, a light rain fell at night. Su Yue and Wen Shu felt relieved after seeing this. No matter what they planted, water was always needed for the germination.
The water level in the lake also rose a little, so Su Heng and Lu Mingchuan went to the flower and bird market to buy some fish fry.
Although it is called a market, Su Heng discovered that it is actually just a small bazaar.
Although it is not explicitly stated now, the management has become much more relaxed, and those with quick minds have already come here to set up stalls.
There are relatively few people selling flowers and trees, but there are some fish fry, and there is also a tank of koi for sale, all of which are small fry.
Su Heng thought of the rockery and water pond in her own garden. How could she do without it? So she packed up the small water tank and took it away.
The rest of the fish fry were smaller, mostly medium-sized fish. The fishermen felt that they were going to sell the fish meat. Su Heng picked out the fish with good meat and bought some.
I plan to throw them into the lake and let them reproduce slowly on their own.
By the way, they also collected some orchid seeds. They didn't pick the varieties, they just collected any orchid seeds. They bought a large bag before going home.
Lu Mingchuan went to release the fish fry, while Su Heng went to see the flower fields.
Before sowing, Su Heng soaked the seeds in specially prepared water, which stimulated their activity. Now, they are nourished by the soil and spring rain, and their vitality is very strong.
Su Heng was very satisfied and was not too anxious for success. He simply covered each seed with his supernatural power.
Driven by vigorous vitality, tender green shoots pushed through the seed coat and came into contact with the soft soil.
She stopped here. Su Yue came back every day to observe the situation in the field. She was afraid that if she let all the sprouts emerge from the mud in one day, it would scare her father.
However, she keenly noticed the differences in the sprouts from this batch of flower seeds. It seemed that many of them were obviously different from the other sprouts.
But Su Heng is not worried. There are many types of orchids, and if rare colors can be cultivated, they can be sold at a higher price.
After finishing these, Su Heng went home along the path across the lake, and stopped by the garden to check on the condition of the pond.
It had just rained at night, and the bluestone road looked very new after being washed by the water. The surrounding grass, trees and flowers were still covered with rain dew, and the fragrance of flowers and grass lingered in the nose.
The sun was not very bright at the moment, and the birds on the branches seemed to be quarreling or something, but the sound of birds singing could be heard everywhere in the garden.
The fry in the lake fell down as soon as they came in, and Lu Mingchuan carefully put the tank of koi into the pond water.
The water in the pond was clear. As soon as the fry entered the water, they quickly looked for cover and soon all hid under the small leaves of the water lilies.
Su Heng saw this and threw a stone down with mischievousness, and the fish school that had just settled down was frightened and scattered again.
"You're so timid." She still had the nerve to complain.
Hearing this, Lu Mingchuan couldn't help but laugh.
"Wait until they grow up a little bit."
Su Heng: "I'm sure he'll be just as timid when he grows up."
Lu Mingchuan: "When you grow up, you can't avoid stones."
The pond is not too big. When hundreds of fish grow up, the pond will probably be full and there will definitely not be enough space under the water lilies.
Su Heng paused and said, "You are so mean."
She said this as if it wasn't her who threw the stone just now.
Lu Mingchuan washed the small water tank with pool water, walked over with the tank in one hand, and looked at Su Heng meaningfully.
He smiled and said, “You just know.”
Su Heng: ...
Help, she doesn't want to be someone who understands things instantly!
She was once as pure as a blank sheet of paper, but now she is gone forever.
It’s all Lu Mingchuan’s fault for leading her astray!
Su Heng said with a look of condemnation: "I really misjudged you."
After saying this, he left with a righteous look on his face.
Lu Mingchuan did not refute, but followed her back to the yard with a smile on his face.
It just so happened that the green rice dumplings made by Wen Shu were already out of the pot. Su Heng had mentioned a few words about it before, but she didn't expect that she could actually make it.
Without even bothering to argue with Lu Mingchuan, he went over to praise Wen Shu and ate a small green dumpling filled with red bean filling in one bite.
Soft, sweet and with the unique flavor of Qingtuan, delicious!
"Mom, you are so amazing! How come you can do everything?"
Wen Shu was so happy that he said, "This is actually not difficult to do."
"I don't care, that's pretty cool too."
The smile on Wen Shu's lips could no longer be wiped away. Su Yue looked at his wife smiling and felt happy too.
His daughter is really good at coaxing people with her mouth, it's really worth him learning from her.
