Chapter 5 Flower Market
Perhaps in anticipation of the morning market of flowers and birds, Luo Tong woke up early. Luo Xiaocheng opened his eyes after Luo Tong moved slightly, and after seeing Luo Tong enter the bathroom, he lazily changed his position and continued to nap. Luo Tong smiled slightly, picked up the curled up Luo Xiaotang, poured some cat food into the cat basin, but malily held Luo Xiaocheng in his arms, so that it could only see but couldn't eat, remember the little orange cat meowing.
Enough teasing the little orange, Luo Tong put the little orange cat in front of the cat basin, and the palm-sized kitten ate in front of the cat basin, and whined twice from time to time, perhaps expressing satisfaction. Seeing Luo Xiaocheng enjoying it so much, Luo Tong touched his stomach, as if he was a little hungry, buy a cake or buy a cup of soy milk to deal with it later, he was too lazy to make breakfast by himself.
I heard Zhao Lao say that the morning market is not far from her flower shop, and it will be a few minutes away, and Zhao Lao will inadvertently sneak into Luotong's shop after shopping for the morning market yesterday. was pondering, the little orange cat had already eaten, after all, it was a little milk cat, and it couldn't eat much. Luo Tong put the little orange cat in the basket and pushed the bicycle into the elevator.
When Luo's mother bought this house, she made a special inquiry, this community belongs to the school district, there are public elevators, security measures are also very good, and the environment is also very quiet. Because I was in a hurry at the time, Luo's mother didn't choose a rough room, and bought a hardcover sample room directly, but fortunately, Luo Tong also liked the style of decoration.
There are two households on each floor, and Luo's mother rents 902. At that time, I heard from the intermediary that there were also residents in 901, but Luo Tong had been in and out several times recently, and he had not encountered it once.
There are quite a lot of breakfast shops near the university town, Luo Tong chose a home that he often went to before, and ordered a bowl of soy milk and a fritter as usual, soybean milk with fritters is absolutely matched? Luo Tong soaked the whole fritter in the soybean milk, and after the fritters were soaked, the fritters were scooped up and eaten slowly, which is Luo Tong's habit all the time, the fritters became soft, and with the fragrance of soy milk.
The little orange who smelled the fragrance couldn't sit still, and rubbed around at Luo Tong's feet, meowing to eat. When Luo Tong took it to the hospital yesterday, the doctor explained that the little orange cat was still small, and many human foods could not be eaten, and at this stage they could only eat cat food for special small milk cats. Therefore, Luo Tong drank the soy milk in two sips, picked up the little milk cat and left. If she stays any longer, she is worried that she will not be able to withstand the attack of the little milk cat, and feed it something that it cannot eat.
Raising a cat is also a sweet burden, Luo Tong stood at the door of the breakfast shop and sighed. Fortunately, the little orange cat is quite well-behaved, and if it can't smell the aroma, it won't make any noise, and it will lie quietly in Luo Tong's arms.
"Xiao Luo?" A familiar voice came from the side, Luo Tong followed the source of the sound and looked over, it was Zhao Lao and another gray-haired old man. Both of them were wearing white practice clothes, and they looked particularly energetic.
Luo Tong looked at his watch, there were still about ten minutes before the time they had agreed. "Grandpa Zhao, you came so early? I was just about to go to the morning market, but I didn't expect to meet you here. Luo Tong said in surprise.
Zhao Lao shook his head: "Old man, I am old, I feel young, it just so happens that I live in a community with your grandfather Rong, we often play Tai Chi together in the morning, and we are just going to go to the morning market after practicing in the morning." Come, Lao Rong, let me introduce you, this is my new friend Luo Tong, the little girl is very good at raising flowers, and the pot of small gourds I bought yesterday in the Xiao Luo store. ”
Zhao Lao introduced Luo Tong to Rong Lao, who was traveling with him, and told him that people with his current status are usually difficult for juniors to enter his eyes, but he doesn't know why, he likes Luo Tong very much when he sees him, just like seeing his own nephews.
Before Luo Tong could say hello, Rong Lao spoke: "It turns out that the little gourd is from you, no wonder the special Zhong Lingyuxiu." Yesterday, Lao Zhao showed off at my place for a long time, and that little gourd is really good. But old man, I like flowers with complex and colorful colors, do you have them in your store?"
Luo Tong smiled: "Grandpa Rong, my flower shop has just opened, because it is a new takeover, there are not many flowers in the store, but I used to raise flowers myself, I planted a few pots of Lantian jade in my own home, next month is the flowering period, if you are interested, you can come to the store to see." ”
This is true, since he had the ability, Luo Tong has fallen in love with flowers and plants, and I don't know how many plants there are at home. On the one hand, it is convenient for her to experiment with her abilities, and on the other hand, it also makes her feel more comfortable and comfortable staying with flowers and plants. Lantian jade was planted by her last year, and it will bloom next month.
"Lantian Jade, this is rare," Rong Lao's eyes lit up, and he changed the appearance of the fairy wind bones at the beginning, and said eagerly, "In this way, Xiao Luo, you call me when Lantian Jade blooms, I'll go to your store to have a look, you must remember!"
Luo Tong is naturally full of words, chatting all the way to know that Rong Lao is a senior member of the city flower association, usually with a group of like-minded friends to search for exotic flowers and plants, it is not an exaggeration to call it a "nymphomaniac".
During the chat, the three of them and one cat arrived at the entrance of the fancy style, Luo Tong parked the bicycle at the bicycle parking place at the entrance, and carried the little orange cat into the morning market with Zhao Lao and Rong Lao.
Although it is a morning market, it is very lively. Most of the people who come and go are elderly, and there are very few young girls like Luo Tong. In fact, it is not a morning market, it was just a meeting place for a group of flower lovers at the beginning. Later, it gradually became famous, and there were more and more people, and the scale became larger and larger.
According to Rong Lao, most of the flowers and plants raised by nearby families are sold here, and a small number of them come from a few nearby flower beds.
There are all kinds of shops on both sides of the flower market, and it is true that as Zhao Lao said, there are all kinds of flowers. Seeing the flowers, Rong Lao came to the spirit, and even Zhao Lao had to bow down. Sure enough, along the way, Mr. Rong commented that the flowers of this family are well raised and have spirit, but the flowers of that family are not blooming, and the flowers are not gorgeous enough.
Luo Tong swiped his mobile phone last night, looked at some illustrated books of plants, and listened to Rong Lao's explanation in his ears, and asked from time to time if he didn't understand. In this way, half of the illustrated books I saw yesterday can be corrected.
Luo Tong was watching with great interest, and there were several people squatting in a corner in front of him, and they were talking to each other from time to time. Old Man Rong didn't come to his heart, so he squeezed in without Zhao Lao and Luo Tong.
Luo Tong looked at Rong Lao's back in embarrassment, and Zhao Lao smiled when he saw this, "Lao Rong is like this, he loves to join in the fun." After a pause, he continued: "Xiao Luo, you don't know, the most famous thing in this flower market is to pick up leaks. The so-called picking up leaks is to find good quality in those stumps and leaves thrown away by others, and then sell after feeding yourself. There was an old gentleman who missed a superb Chunlan plant, and the roots of Chunlan were broken at that time, and the old gentleman spent a lot of effort to raise this superb Chunlan, and finally made a move, how much do you guess?"
