Chapter 190: Hang Yu's Words
"I'll tell you the truth, my girlfriend's surname is Qiu, and I want to buy it back for her. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info," Hang Yu said.
"Then I can't sell it to you, I gave this crape myrtle to my wife a long time ago, and I just helped her take care of it. If you want to give your girlfriend and cultivate a crape myrtle by yourself, even if it's not as good as mine, you have a mind in it. Qin Xuefang said.
"Well, you have a point. "Hang Yu suddenly wanted to learn bonsai.
Later, Qin Xuefang introduced more than 20 potted plants to Hang Yu, including tea trees, plum blossoms, banyan trees, golden branches and jade leaves, juniper pomegranates, boxwood, Bodhi trees, etc., all of which are Qin Xuefang's proud works, each potted plant has an elegant or atmospheric or tacky but very apt name.
"There are two kinds of good bonsai, one is inherently good, and the other is to turn decay into magic. The same green pine, you look ordinary, but people can cultivate artistic value, this is the gap. Qin Xuefang said.
"Where have you been?" asked Hang Yu.
"I, so-so. Qin Xuefang was vague.
When I walked to the corner of the yard, a potted elm tree with yellow leaves and languishing appeared.
Qin Xuefang frowned when he saw it, picked up a commonly used small shovel, stepped forward to dig up the soil and take a look, only to see that the roots of the elm tree were rotten, and some ant-like insects crawled out, no wonder the leaves of the elm tree were yellowed and withered.
"It's a pity, this elm tree should have been bought by my daughter, and I haven't paid attention to it in the corner. It must have been not long after the transplant, and the nanny watered too much, otherwise it would not be so easy to rot. Qin Xuefang said: "The plant shape is still very good, but there are too many potted plants in my yard, and I don't have the energy to take care of these newly bought ones." ”
Elm trees are more drought tolerant than moisture tolerant, and many elm bonsai, especially new piles, die in summer due to excessive watering, high water temperature or improper fertilization concentration, resulting in slow root decay and death.
"The shape of this elm tree is a bit like two white cranes leaning together, what's not famous?" Hang Yu asked.
"It's useless to have any fame, the roots are almost rotten. Qin Xuefang said.
"How to deal with this situation?" Hang Yu asked.
"Throw it away. Qin Xuefang often encounters this kind of thing, and he has long been used to it.
His energy is mainly focused on the most precious and favorite potted plants, which he doesn't care about not long after he bought them.
"It's a pity to throw it away, how about giving it to me, maybe you can plant it. "Hang Yu likes the shape of this elm tree and wants to take it back to see if he can feed it.
"It's difficult. "Qin Xuefang doesn't have the energy.
"It's man-made. Hang Yu said.
Qin Xuefang glanced at Hang Yu in surprise, and then said appreciatively: "You have this thought, which means that you already like cultivation, but it is so difficult to come, I am afraid that you will be hit." ”
Hang Yu smiled slightly: "It's not difficult, how can I reflect my talent." ”
Qin Xuefang laughed loudly: "Okay, you just move away." ”
He asked the nanny to bring two plastic bags over, put bread on the elm tree, and bread on the flower pot, and let Hang Yu take it away.
"Old Qin, when I go back and plant this elm tree, I will come back to ask you for advice when the time comes. Hang Yu put the elm bonsai in the car and said goodbye to Qin Xuefang.
"I have a book here that specializes in teaching cultivation, you can take it back and read it carefully. Qin Xuefang took out an old book and flipped through it many times, and there were some of his notes in it, and the title of the book was called Bonsai.
"Thank you. Hang Yu accepted unceremoniously.
Driving back to the company dormitory on this side of the People's Bridge, Hang Yu carried books and hugged the elm tree potted plants upstairs.
When she arrived at the door of the room, she happened to meet Qiu Xueyan, she was curious: "The leaves of this tree are all yellow, why did you buy it?" Qiu Xueyan is not a regular employee of the company, and she does not go to work at the specified time, so it can be said that she does what she wants.
"You know what the name of this tree is, no. Hang Yu asked.
"I don't know. Qiu Xueyan shook her head.
"It's an elm tree, and its name is Undying. Hang Yu said.
Hearing the words "unswerving" to death, Qiu Xueyan smiled and said: "Who are you fooling, you know at a glance that this tree is dying, how can the leaves wither in summer." She said this, but in her heart she liked the name.
"It's because it's about to die that it's called death, and to be honest, it's almost impossible to see such love in reality. Like this elm tree, it is almost certain to die, but if we can plant it alive, it means that we can do miracles. Hang Yu said.
"Really, is it possible?" Qiu Xueyan was instantly full of anticipation.
"Just try it. Hang Yu said.
Originally, Qiu Xueyan was not interested in bonsai, but at this moment, she fell in love with this elm tree.
Hang Yu moved the elm tree to the balcony, and Qiu Xueyan came up to see it, as if she was looking at a rare treasure.
"What does it mean to turn decay into magic, this is. Hang Yu secretly sighed.
He opened the "Potted Plant" given by Qin Xuefang, found the cultivation method of the elm tree, bought a pair of scissors for pruning branches and leaves, broke the flower pot directly, first used his hands to remove the large pieces of soil, and then washed off the remaining soil with water to cut off all the rotten roots.
This shear is 90% of the root system, and only 10% of the root system is good.
Hang Yu deliberately drove back to his hometown, dug a pit with Qiu Xueyan, and planted elm trees in the backyard.
"In the future, if you come to water every day and take care of it according to the book, whether you can live depends on sincerity. Hang Yu gave "Bonsai" to Qiu Xueyan.
"Well, I'll take good care of it. Qiu Xueyan said.
In fact, planting this elm tree is not as difficult as Hang Yu said, the reason why he said this is just to enhance the value of the elm tree in Qiu Xueyan's mind. Hang Yu knew that as long as Qiu Xueyan took care of it carefully according to what was written in the book, there was eighty percent hope that this elm tree could be planted.
The reason why Qin Xuefang said that it was very difficult was that he didn't have the energy to take care of it.
Temporarily put aside the bonsai matter, Hang Yu calculated that the town government was on holiday, and at nine o'clock in the morning on Saturday, he went to visit Liu Shengjian with two boxes of good red robes. He didn't buy bonsai and planned to upgrade the gift later after becoming more familiar with bonsai.
The first time you visit, it's simpler.
Liu Shengjian's home is very close to the People's Bridge, and he lives in an apartment, which is very elegant and quiet.
Pressing the doorbell, someone came to open the door in a short time, it was a dignified woman in her forties.
"Are you?" asked Gu.
"Hello, I'm here to visit Stationmaster Liu. Hang Yu said.
"Please come in, what do you call you. Gu asked Hang Yu to enter the house, and then closed the door.
"You can call me Yunshan. Hang Yu said.
"Yunshan, is this your word?" Liu Shengjian sat in the living room reading the newspaper, and there was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl sitting barefoot on the sofa next to him, stuffing grapes and spitting grape seeds in her mouth while watching TV.
"Yes, when I was a child, I was very obsessed with the Three Kingdoms with a few classmates, so I went to find a Chinese teacher to pick it up. However, this is not advocated these days, so it is rarely used, and it is quite suitable for me now. Hang Yu put two boxes of big red robes on the table
It's called Xiaoyu Xiaohang or something, Hang Yu didn't think there was a problem when he was a child, but now he feels too childish. Especially talking to the elders of the government and business circles, and coming up with such a stingy name, Hang Yu felt that it was not appropriate.
The Chinese teacher who gave him the words was a teacher that Hang Yu respected very much, otherwise he wouldn't have remembered it.
At that time, Hang Yu was in the fourth grade, and he accidentally broke his left leg while playing with his friends, and he couldn't bend his leg or go up the stairs after going to the hospital to get a plaster. The Chinese teacher carried him up and down the teaching building every day until Hang Yu's left leg recovered, so Hang Yu especially respected that teacher.
"Yunyu, that's Wu, Wu has the meaning of great magical powers a long time ago. In the Book of Mountains and Seas, Wushan has a popular myth and legend, it is said that the goddess of Wushan helped Dayu to control the water, and is a goddess who benefits living beings. You have great magical powers to benefit living beings, and that teacher has high expectations for you. Liu Shengjian said.
"And this explanation, I just thought it was very interesting at the time, and I didn't think about it so much. Hang Yu said.
"Now that I know, I have to cherish that teacher's expectations. Liu Shengjian pointed out.
"You've said so, can I still refuse. Hang Yu accepted this explanation.
"I don't know what it means, but according to me, you should read more books. Liu Shengjian's daughter muttered on the side.
"Shanshan, how do you talk to the guests. Gu said unhappily.
Liu Shan pursed her lips, blaming Hang Yu for disturbing her watching TV.
