In the private school alley of Xinming District, the Zheng family sits in the courtyard from north to south, Zheng's mother watered the moon flowers under the south window of the east wing, and called her daughter to the west wing: "Nini, didn't you say that you went to the East Garden to water the flowers this morning, the sun is rising, hurry up." ”

Zheng Xiaowen's voice came from the west wing: "Mom, today is Saturday, and I just slept lazy, so I'll get up." ”

Zheng Xiaowen's father is a Chinese medicine doctor at the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Her mother is a recently retired teacher from Huayuan No. 1 Middle School.

Zheng Xiaowen has an uncle and an aunt. The uncle's family is in the field, and the aunt's family is in Huayuan City.

Zheng's father and Zheng's mother love their daughter for ten minutes and regard her daughter as the pearl of their palms.

Zheng Xiaowen is 28 years old this year, and like many girls, she likes fashionable clothes, shoes and socks, likes popular and beautiful hairstyles, and loves neatness.

She doesn't talk much, but when she's with her friends, she's also very good at laughing.

She loves calligraphy and painting, and loves to write poems and lyrics. She has a wide range of interests and hobbies.

She is not sociable and can't cling, but the big and small scenery in nature will touch her heart.

Inside, she is sentimental but not too worried, such a girl.

Her appearance gives people the impression of stability, it seems that she is very mature, but in fact, she is very simple in many aspects, but she is also very thoughtful. This thought prompted her to know and feel the spring, summer, autumn and winter of life, as well as the joys, sorrows, and sorrows.

Her sentimentality is all expressed in her words.

Her lack of sorrow is also expressed in her words.

She often keeps a diary, and the content of her diary is not only a record of what she has seen, heard, encountered, and felt, but also her thoughts.

Sometimes she would play with the words in her diary to make her feel better.

Sometimes, when she encounters unpleasant things, she will also express herself in her own space or use words to express her feelings, or use self-talk to sigh and sigh, so as to express her feelings and get rid of the depression and worries in her chest, so as to make her body and mind stretch and be relaxed and happy.

After graduating from college, she went to Huayuan No. 9 Middle School, and spent the last two years in the No. 9 Middle School with headaches from time to time. The Chinese medicine prepared by her father, she recovered after taking it, and relapsed after a while.

In March this year, she was transferred to the Second Light Bureau of Huayuan City, and her job was to take care of the three factories under the Second Light Bureau, mainly plastic factories, and report to the bureau every three or five times.

She has never had a headache since she entered the Second Light Bureau and went to work in the plastic factory, and sometimes when she thinks about it, she thinks it's incredible.

The Zheng family has two residences: the west house and the east courtyard.

The east courtyard of the Zheng family is very large. At the northernmost end of the courtyard are five large upper rooms facing north to south.

In front of the upper room, there is a glass flower house to the west, and a small east house to the east. There is a black-backed yellow dog in the small east house: Big Black. At the southwest corner of the yard, there are two toilets.

One day, Zheng Xiaowen told her father and mother that the parents of several children in middle school were waiting for her outside the plastic factory, saying that they wanted her to tutor their children in English.

After hearing this, my father and mother both said that teaching and learning were mutually beneficial, and agreed, so I made the upper room in the east courtyard and the two large rooms on the west side into an English tutoring room, and tutored and studied once a Wednesday night.

Entering this east courtyard from the west house, you have to pass through the south gable of the east wing of the west house, the sandwich road between the wall of the shadow wall of the gate, and then walk through the moon gate opened on the courtyard wall between the east and west courtyards, and you will arrive at the east courtyard.

In the east courtyard of the Zheng family, there is a three-meter-high rockery on the east side near the east wall facing the moon gate.

At the foot of the front of the rockery facing the moon gate, there is a semi-circular pond as wide as the rockery, and there are goldfish of various colors in the pool.

Between the north side of the rockery and the small east house, this spacious place has a grape trellis.

To the north of the Moon Gate, a little bit near the middle of the courtyard is an antique corner pavilion, the pavilion area is slightly larger, and there are stone tables and stone benches inside.

To the south of the Moon Gate, there is a honeysuckle, and the vines of the honeysuckle have long climbed the wall unrestrained.

Around the east courtyard near the wall, there are many pomegranate trees and jujube trees.

In the eastern courtyard, there are some trees that bloom in different seasons, and in several places, bamboo is planted.

On both sides of the path between the flowers in the courtyard, there are potted flowers of different kinds, different flowering periods and different colors, and the large chrysanthemums are already budding buds.

On the ground, there is a long patch of flowers, which are cultivated in a curved shape with separate colors, and the flowers are in full bloom, forming a beautiful ribbon like a rainbow.

Nearly 100 pots of bonsai with different shapes are placed on the flower stand and flower stand.

Half of the stump bonsai cultivated by the Zheng family is for viewing its roots and dry branches and leaves, and it is pruned before the buds grow, and half of them are enjoyed together with flowers and fruits. The stump bonsai of this pot is beautiful in shape, and the artistic style has its own merits.

The artistic beauty of the stump bonsai in the east courtyard is purely the free Zheng school embodied in the Zheng family's personal style and painting style integrated into the bonsai art production.

Zheng Xiaowen often admires the flowers in the east courtyard, every clear sky and bright moonlit night, she walks among the flowers, leisurely admires the moon, the scenery, and the flowers, she will think of the story of 'irrigating the garden and meeting the fairy at night', the scene of the fairy vaguely appears in front of her, and she will feel that she has stepped into the fairyland of fantasy beauty in the flowers under the moonlight.

When encountering heavy snow or light rain, Zheng Xiaowen will watch another scene of Ximei smiling and snow, playing with rain and teasing flowers and leaves.

Sometimes, when Zheng Xiaowen looks at the colorful flowers in this garden and looks at the landscape of this garden-like garden, she will think of the chrysanthemums, plum songs, and flower praises written by the great poets, and the words are extremely beautiful and elegant.

It is precisely because of the Zheng family's love for flowers and trees that they call the East Courtyard East Garden, and sometimes it is also called the East Garden.

The father and mother of the Zheng family come to the East Garden every day to enjoy and taste the flower bonsai they made by themselves. Although their hearts are comfortable, sometimes they are not happy enough, as long as their daughter is present, as soon as their interest comes, they have to let their daughter write poems and lyrics on the theme of East Garden.

After Zheng Xiaowen finished breakfast, she bypassed the water pipe pool in the courtyard at the southwest corner of the east wing, walked east through the moon gate open on the courtyard wall, and entered the east courtyard. She placed a plastic pipe on the water pipe next to the flower room and watered the flowers......

At noon, Zheng's father came back from work, he didn't go directly to the gate steps, and walked eastward, looking at the east courtyard near the street wall, the pomegranate trees and jujube trees that grew higher than the wall, and saw the ripe pomegranates and jujubes, which bent the branches, and many pomegranates and jujubes hung down on the wall.

He looked at this fruity, green and beautiful scenery with jujube red, and stood there admiring it for a while before turning around and walking back in a comfortable mood.

Father Zheng came to the courtyard, entered the east wing and said, "I am in a good mood today, the flowers in the east garden are blooming well, and the fruits are bearing well, let's go, let's take the rice to the east garden to eat." ”

In the pavilion in the east courtyard, the three members of the Zheng family had lunch, and Zheng's father had no intention of standing up, and the family chatted while watching the flowers.

At this time, Zheng's father looked at his daughter and said, "Nini, look at this garden scenery, improvise, and let Dad listen to a poem!"

Zheng's mother immediately echoed: "Okay, Nini, you quickly observe the garden carefully, and make good poems for your mother to appreciate and appreciate!"

Zheng Xiaowen was naturally even happier when she saw her parents so happy, she looked at the surrounding garden, and her eyes were aimed at the water flow on the rockery.

She aimed, aimed, thought for a while, and said, "Then I'll have a seven-character quatrain "Small Garden Landscape". She improvised and chanted:

The clear water rockery flows, and the winding path bends around the garden.

Dad asked me to talk about the interior of the garden, pomegranate jujube sitting on the wall!

She chanted the first two sentences, very seriously, and spoke very slowly, and in the last two sentences, she said them quickly. After saying that, he couldn't hold back, and he laughed first.

Dad Zheng also laughed after hearing this.

Zheng's mother couldn't help but laugh, and said: "Four lines of poetry, your little Nini actually slipped a sentence in passing, no, hurry up and make another good poem, so that Dad and Mom can appreciate it carefully." ”

Zheng Xiaowen knew that this poem would not pass the test with her mother, she looked at her father and mother, pursed her lips and smiled, and said in a relaxed mood: "Okay." ”

After she finished speaking, she quickly looked around the garden, then looked at the cups, cups, and bowls on the table in front of her, deliberately coughed twice to clear her throat, and said: "I fill in a double-tone small order, the word card: (Qing Pingle), the title is: "Family Joy in the East Garden", then please listen to the second elder." She chanted:

Autumn Garden Spring,

Iridescent and magnificent.

Ten thousand fragrant four seasons,

This is the only place to enjoy the scenery!

~ ~ ~

Jiaoju Xiugui crazy vine,

Sweet tea and fine wine.

Improvisational poetry and music,

Incense attacks people drunk flower city!

After Zheng Xiaowen finished chanting the last word, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath of 'smelling incense and intoxicating' movements, and 'drunk' into his mother's arms.

The daughter chanted this poem, and the mother was happy in her heart, saying: "My daughter is good, this poem is done harmoniously, neatly, impeccable, really good!"

Father Zheng looked at his daughter from the side, and he was also smiling happily.

Zheng's mother stopped laughing, affectionately called her daughter who was pretending to be drunk in her arms, and asked her wife: "Lao Zheng, you can have fun today, are you happy?"

"Have fun!" said Dad Zheng with a smile, "With my daughter by my side, I am happy at all times!"

The family was talking and laughing happily, and when they heard Da Hei muttering in front of the small east house, Zheng's father said, "Da Hei may be hungry." So saying, he got up and looked at the big black.

Zheng's mother looked at her daughter and asked with a smile: "Nini, tell my mother, the boyfriend you introduced to you by Aunt Zhang said that you met at noon yesterday, and your mother didn't ask you last night, did you go to see you?"

"See you. Zheng Xiaowen said angrily.

"And how do you feel?" asked my mother with concern.

"Not good!" Mr. Zheng said.

Zheng's mother was not very happy to see her daughter's expression, she still wanted to know something, and asked, "No, what is that?" ”

"At first glance, it looks like it has just crawled out of the coal pile, and it looks like this, you know. Zheng Xiaowen couldn't hold back after speaking, and Gege laughed twice.

"No, your Aunt Zhang said that the kid is a doctor, and he is very good in all aspects. Why did you become black coal?" asked my mother, puzzled.

"Then I'll be honest with you, he's black and a little ugly, and when I see him, I want to turn around and leave. Out of politeness, I had a few words with him, and I went to work. Zheng Xiaowen said unhappily.

"Don't be wrong, your Aunt Zhang said that this kid is not dark or ugly, his job is field exploration, but it is a little dark, and it is also tanned. If you think about it, there are not many conditions like this, so don't give up easily. Mom said.

"Mom, I look at this, you don't care about it in the future, don't worry about it, I feel that I will meet the right person. Zheng Xiaowen said.

Mother Zheng sighed and said, "Oh! ”

Dad Zheng came over and said with a smile: "I've fed Da Hei, picked some dates, let's go, go back to the West Courtyard, and wait for a while to cook dates and eat." ”

Zheng Xiaowen hurriedly packed up the dishes and chopsticks, and the family happily returned to the west house.
