Pastoral Daily Life - Chapter 138

    It has been a quarter of an hour since Lu Lingxi went home from the next door.

    Wang Shuxiu sat on the sofa and glared at him with a half-smile, Lu Lingxi felt guilty for a while, and rubbed against Wang Shuxiu to please. He didn’t act like a spoiled child, he just hugged Wang Shuxiu’s arm affectionately, and called out in a soft voice, “Mom.”

    Every time he is like this, Wang Shuxiu can’t do anything about him. Angrily reaching out and poking Lu Lingxi’s finger, Wang Shuxiu said with a sullen face, “Eat.”

    Lu Lingxi followed Wang Shuxiu like a little tail, the mother and son sat next to each other, Xiao Feng looked at them with a funny look, took a piece of ribs for each of them, and said in a roundabout way: “Come on, try my craft.”

    “Thank you dad.” Lu Lingxi said obediently.

    Xiao Feng laughed, “If Xiaoxi likes to eat, we will continue to do it tomorrow.”

    Father and son have diverged from the previous matter in three or two sentences. Wang Shuxiu knew it well, and gave them a sideways glance.

    After dinner, it was nine o’clock in the evening, and Wang Shuxiu went back to her room early to rest. Lu Ling went back to his room in a suit as if nothing had happened, but he had been sitting at the door listening to the movement outside. Da Hei was lying beside Lu Lingxi quietly, his ears perked up high.

    Lu Lingxi guessed what Da Hei was thinking, smiled and patted Da Hei’s head, and whispered, “Da Hei, are you also listening to your mother fall asleep?”

    Da Hei let out a low voice.

    Lu Lingxi felt a little embarrassed, and did not speak again. However, Da Hei’s hearing is much more sensitive than his. If Da Hei was there last time, my mother wouldn’t be able to catch Big Brother Yan with him. After waiting for a while, there was no movement outside, and Lu Lingxi guessed that Wang Shuxiu should be asleep. Originally, Yan Yue said he wanted to come to him, but Lu Lingxi thought about it and it was more convenient for him to find Yan Yue. It’s okay for Wang Shuxiu to catch him away, but if Yan Yue is blocked at home by Wang Shuxiu, the consequences will be serious.

    “Let’s go.” Lu Lingxi first sent a text message to Yan Yue, and then whispered hello to Da Hei.

    Da Hei immediately ran to the front, and his four claws stepped on the ground silently.

    As soon as Lu Lingxi went out, he saw Yan Yue standing outside waiting for him like last time.

    In the room, Xiao Feng keenly heard the movement outside and smiled silently. He carefully tucked the quilt for the sleeping Wang Shuxiu, thinking that it would be better for Xiaohua to know nothing.

    Good night’s sleep.

    Lu Lingxi returned to the room early the next day, Xiao Feng pretended not to know that he hadn’t returned overnight, and he just asked him how he was sleeping as usual. Lu Lingxi felt guilty and almost buried his head in the bowl while eating.

    Xiao Feng laughed in his heart, shook his head and said nothing.

    On the day after Xiao Feng came back, Ye Kang also came to Fengcheng. Just like Xiao Hong’s reaction when he first entered the city, Ye Kang was also taken aback by the changes in Fengcheng. Across the high-speed toll station, Fengcheng City is like two seasons inside and outside. One side is still as dark as winter, while the other side is already spring.

    Ye Kang was surprised, and when he saw Yan Yue, he asked Yan Yue if he knew what was going on. He remembered that the climates of Fengcheng and Zhongjing were similar, but he didn’t think the difference between the two sides was that big. Besides, the changes in Fengcheng are only limited to the urban area, and the temperature outside is still similar to that of Zhongjing, which is really evil.

    It’s about the white panel, Yan Yue couldn’t say anything to Ye Kang, he just said vaguely: “Fengcheng is close to the sea, and it’s warm this year, probably affected by it.”

    Ye Kang gave him a white look, “You believe what the experts say!”

    Yan Yue laughed.

    Ye Kang parked the car at the door of Micro Gardening and greeted Lu Lingxi who came out. Yan Yue followed him closely, the first concern was that Lu Lingxi was not wearing a coat, but just put on a thin sweater and walked out.

    “Be careful of catching a cold.” Yan Yue stepped forward and pushed Lu Lingxi back.

    Lu Lingxi smiled embarrassedly at Ye Kang, and said obediently, “Brother Ye.”

    Ye Kang nodded with a smile and followed the two into Micro Gardening. The micro-gardening environment was as good as ever, and Ye Kang took a deep breath in intoxication. The last time he left Fengcheng, what he missed the most was the air in the micro-gardening. Although it is said that there will be less smog in Beijing in winter, the moderately polluted air all year round still makes him feel short of breath from time to time. “It’s still a good environment for Xiaoxi.” Ye Kang said with emotion from the bottom of his heart.

    This is basically a feeling that everyone who goes to micro gardening will have, and Lu Lingxi is used to it.

    Ye Kang thought of something, “The air outside is not bad, and I can see the blue sky for a rare occasion.”

    His words are not ironic, but Fengcheng is seriously polluted. If Zhongjing is moderately polluted all year round, Fengcheng is perennially heavily polluted. 365 days in a year, there are 300 days without the blue sky. Every time China selects the city with the worst environment, Fengcheng basically tops the list. Compared with what he saw in Fengcheng last year, Ye Kang couldn’t help feeling inspired.

    After he finished speaking, Lu Lingxi nodded and said seriously: “I can see the blue sky these days, it has been more than a week, especially blue.”

    The three of them chatted along this topic. Ye Kang didn’t know about the evolution of plants, and only thought that the improvement of Fengcheng’s air was the effect of the new environmental protection policy, but he was not optimistic about the long-term future of Fengcheng. For Fengcheng, a city with heavy industry, the main economic pillars are coal and steel. But these two are the two most serious environmental pollution. Although the new mayor of Fengcheng focuses on environmental protection, it is impossible for him to let economic development go unchecked. He planted trees everywhere in Fengcheng, and also closed a group of small steel mills with incomplete procedures. For the entire environment of Fengcheng, it was only a temporary solution. No matter how many tree species there are, as long as Fengcheng does not adjust its industrial structure, it is impossible to completely avoid pollution. Besides, the term of office of the mayor is five years. If this mayor is gone, who knows whether the next mayor will focus on the economy or environmental protection?

    Ye Kang said bluntly, Yan Yue frowned slightly, and subconsciously looked at Lu Lingxi. Although Xiaoxi doesn’t say anything, she values ​​the improvement of the environment in her heart. He didn’t want what Ye Kang said to hit Lu Lingxi’s enthusiasm. Besides, Ye Kang didn’t know that plants could evolve. If the evolution rate of plants exceeded Fengcheng’s pollution rate, even if Fengcheng couldn’t completely avoid pollution, he could absorb all the pollution and try to maintain the status quo of blue sky and clear water.

    Lu Lingxi didn’t know Yan Yue’s worries, so he thought about it and said, “It would be great if there were plants that could replace steel or other energy sources. This will not affect the economy, but also protect the environment, so there is no need to worry What kind of pollution is there?” He said seriously, Yan Yue thought about the existence of the white panel, raised his hand and rubbed Lu Lingxi’s hair, and said softly, “We might be able to find similar plants with our efforts.”

    Lu Lingxi glanced at Yan Yue and nodded vigorously.

    Ye Kang originally thought Lu Lingxi’s idea was interesting, but his heart moved when he saw the expressions of the two. Yan Yue’s attitude is not like coaxing Lu Lingxi to talk casually, but a kind of affirmative seriousness is faintly revealed. His eyes swept across the faces of the two of them, and his expression became a little thoughtful.

    Several people chatted for a long time. In the afternoon, Lu Lingxi accompanied Ye Kang to the pet shop opposite. Yan Yue had already told Ye Kang about adopting the Husky, and Ye Kang agreed immediately. As soon as the three entered the store, the silver-gray husky rushed towards Lu Lingxi like an arrow. Lu Lingxi took a step back to catch it, smiled and touched the Husky’s furry head, motioning to Ye Kang, “Brother Ye, look, it’s very obedient.”

    As soon as Lu Lingxi finished speaking, Dong Zhi’s girlfriend rushed out from behind carrying a pair of jeans angrily, and said angrily to the husky: “Stinky Erha, these are my new pants. “

    As soon as the Husky saw her, he immediately lay down on the ground with his belly upside down and pretended to be dead.

    Dong Zhi knew that Ye Kang was going to adopt Erha. He was afraid that he would not have a good impression of Erha, so he quickly came up and asked, “What’s wrong? Erha has always been very good.”

    “Where is it!” Dong Zhi’s girlfriend said angrily. She didn’t know Ye Kang, but she knew Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue well, so she didn’t treat them as outsiders. , strips of denim fluttering in the wind. She was about to die of anger, “I just put a bar of chocolate in my trousers pocket, only to be seen by Smelly Erha. I already told him not to eat chocolate, but he still found it secretly and scratched his trousers. already.”

    The husky on the ground also seemed to know that Dong Zhi’s girlfriend was talking about it, raised his front paws to cover his eyes, and looked shameless.

    Lu Lingxi: “…”

    He just praised Erha for being obedient.

    Ye Kang laughed when he looked at the Husky. Surprisingly, he liked this husky very much. Although it could be seen from the trousers that this husky was not as obedient as Lu Lingxi described, it might be because the old man often said that he fell in love with this husky at a glance. “What’s its name?” Ye Kang asked.

    Dong Zhi couldn’t help laughing for a while, and replied: “Its previous owner was too lazy, so he called it Erha, there is no official name.”

    Ye Kang thought that Erha was Dong Zhi’s girlfriend calling to play, but he didn’t expect it to be the dog’s name. He thought Erha was fine, and turned to ask Lu Lingxi what he meant. Lu Lingxi’s names have always been simple, Da Hei, Xiao Hei, Xiao Hui and the like. He stared at Husky, and proposed Xiaoyin, Xiaohui and Erha for Ye Kang to choose, or Xiaoqi would do.

    Ye Kang&Yan Yue: “…”

     “Okay, let’s go, don’t bother to change the name.” Ye Kang made a final decision.

    Now that Dong Zhi’s girlfriend finally understands that Ye Kang is the new owner of Erha, she looked at the pants in her hand, and regretted that she should save face for Erha. As soon as she put away her pants, Erha, who was lying on the ground and pretending to be dead, immediately got up and continued to circle around Lu Lingxi.

    Ye Kang smiled, squatted on the ground and touched Erha’s head. Erha squinted and glanced at him, then suddenly jumped up and licked Ye Kang’s face enthusiastically.

    Dong Zhi looked happy, although Erha was usually stupid and cheap, he has been lively and noisy since he was sent to the pet store by the original owner, as if he was not affected by abandonment at all, But in fact, Erha understood everything in his heart, otherwise he wouldn’t be so enthusiastic about Ye Kang and tried his best to please Ye Kang. Fortunately, Ye Kang was a friend introduced by Xiaoxi, and Dong Zhi felt relieved to leave Erha to him. He didn’t have to worry that Erha had just adjusted to one home and had to adjust to another.

    Seeing that Ye Kang and Er Ha were having fun, Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue also returned to Micro Gardening. One afternoon passed, and before 6 o’clock, Ye Kang strolled across the road and returned to the store by himself.

    “Hey, what about Erha?” Lu Lingxi was talking to Yan Yue, turned his head and glanced at Erha and couldn’t help but feel a little strange.

    Ye Kang said: “Erha is reluctant to leave the pet store, let him stay for one more day, and take him away tomorrow.” What he didn’t say in detail is that just now he was going to take Erha away At that time, Er Ha, who had always been cheap, suddenly became depressed, looking at Dong Zhi with reluctance.

    Dong Zhi smiled honestly and said to Ye Kang in a low voice: “Don’t look at them can’t speak, in fact, they understand everything in their hearts. Anyone who treats them well knows that they are most grateful. .”

    Dong Zhi was talking about the pets raised in the store, Ye Kang immediately thought of Da Hei and nodded emotionally. For this reason, Ye Kang deliberately asked Erha to stay in the pet shop for one more day to say goodbye to Dong Zhi and the others.

    After 6 o’clock, the three packed up and left Micro Gardening together. Yan Yue proposed to go to a small restaurant for dinner, which was considered to be a blow to Ye Kang. Lu Lingxi just wanted to go to see if Bai Wei was used to staying in the small restaurant, and nodded in agreement immediately. Ye Kangke did as the master did, and was full of curiosity about the small restaurant again, and happily agreed.

    The three of them arrived at the small restaurant, and from a distance they saw that the entrance of the small restaurant was full of people waiting for a table. It’s still early spring anyway, and these people are so cold that their noses are red, and they don’t know how long they have been waiting outside. This is because the residents near the small restaurant basically chose to pack their bags and go home, otherwise there are more people queuing in the small restaurant than now. Because of Wang Shuxiu’s pregnancy, plans to expand the restaurant or to open a new store have all stopped, which has directly led to the fact that the restaurant is too small. Fortunately, Lu Lingxi had already told Yi Hang in advance that they didn’t need to grab a seat with other guests downstairs, they could eat directly upstairs.

    Ye Kang was a little surprised when he saw the scene in front of him. When the small restaurant opened, he had already returned to Beijing, and he had never eaten here. However, he heard Yan Yue mentioned several times that the ingredients in the small restaurant are pure natural, pollution-free and very fresh. It is no wonder that it attracts so many people.

    “Let’s go in directly?” Ye Kang glanced at the people lining up around him, and felt that if he stood up and said that he would not line up, someone inside would immediately rush out and give him a lesson.

    Lu Lingxi was amused by Ye Kang’s expression, nodded with a smile, and whispered, “It’s okay, all the frequent guests know me.”

    When the small restaurant first opened, Lu Lingxi often came to help after get off work. At that time, all the nearby residents knew Lu Lingxi. Later, more and more guests came to the small restaurant, and correspondingly more and more people knew Lu Lingxi. They all knew that he was the son of the proprietress, and he could be regarded as the small boss here.

    After he finished speaking, Ye Kang made an exaggerated expression of reassurance, Yan Yue and Lu Lingxi both laughed when they saw it. Against the eager gazes of the crowd, the three entered the small restaurant, and Da Hei was left in the car outside. There were more and more guests in the small restaurant, and Lu Lingxi also began to consciously stop bringing Da Hei in and out of the small restaurant. Although he knew that Da Hei was very healthy, had no bacteria and was clean, it was inevitable that some guests would mind this, and he could only feel wronged by Da Hei.

    Da Hei stayed in the car obediently and did not make a fuss. Ye Kang was a little fortunate, “Fortunately, I didn’t bring Erha with me, otherwise I’d have a headache.”

    Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

    The three went directly upstairs, and Yihang took the time to come over and say hello. Lu Lingxi grabbed him and asked how Bai Wei was doing?

     “Don’t worry, the fourth child can’t stand bullying.” Yi Hang patted his chest and assured: “He is staying here, and he doesn’t need to peel the radish every day, and occasionally the master is too busy, he can still It is much better to start cooking a dish than the gold medal chef he used to read.”

    Lu Lingxi felt relieved when Yi Hang said this. Now that there are many people outside, it is not easy for him to stay in Yi Hang. He said a few words in a hurry and watched Yi Hang rush down. While the two were talking, Yan Yue had already greeted Ye Kang to sit down and poured him a cup of tea.

    Yan Yue was holding a bamboo tea set, and there were many bamboo crafts upstairs. These are all bought by Wang Shuxiu and Zhou Xiaoman when they were shopping in the past few days. They look elegant and interesting.

    Lu Lingxi sent Yi Hang away and sat beside Yan Yue, with a small bamboo building next to him. Lu Lingxi looked interesting and started playing with it.

    Yan Yue looked at him dotingly, “Like?”

    Lu Lingxi nodded, rubbed the bamboo building, and asked curiously, “Are there really many such bamboo buildings in Kunnan? Will the people not collapse?”

    He stopped suddenly and looked at Lu Lingxi thoughtfully.

    The author has something to say: If you are interested, you can search for the news of bamboo. Now the use of bamboo is really beyond imagination. There is a kind of bamboo called Gangzhu. Its tensile strength along the grain reaches 2833 kg per square, and it enjoys the reputation of “plant steel”. People really use bamboo instead of steel bars to pour bamboo-reinforced concrete buildings. There are many other uses, and the whole body is a treasure. Of course, this article will exaggerate a little O(∩_∩)O~
