Chapter 114: Strange Talk

In the garden of the Ministry of Rites, a flower farmer appeared at this time, and the flower farmer looked like he had just reached forty, his face was dark, and his two sword eyebrows seemed to want to clash with each other. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Such a resolute and selfless person feels upright and selfless, but he is actually a flower farmer, and Zhang Hua also began to ponder in his heart after seeing the face of the flower farmer

"Could it be that the Ministry of Rites recruits miscellaneous subordinates to see their faces?"

Zhang Hua had a question mark on his face, but he didn't think about anything, and now that he wanted to see his main owner did not appear, Zhang Hua didn't dare to have any slackness.

I continued to sit in the gazebo and wait, looking in the direction of the entrance of the garden from time to time, and the time was also spent in every minute.

The flower farmer in the distance, with big scissors in his hand, kept pruning the branches and leaves, as if he had obsessive-compulsive disorder, he had to cut the branches and leaves to symmetry.

From time to time, he stepped back to watch, and after feeling dissatisfied, he shook his head and continued to drive, Zhang Hua looked at him quietly and didn't say anything.

At this time, the flower farmer put down the scissors in his hand and walked to a corner in the distance. There was a pot of tea there, and two tea bowls, pour a cup, take off the hat on the head, and drink it alone.

After drinking a bowl of warm tea, the flower farmer exhaled comfortably and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve. At this time, after seeing Zhang Hua still waiting in the pavilion, the flower farmer paused, and also picked up the teapot and two tea bowls and walked towards Zhang Hua.

"This son, the old farmer saw that you thought you had been here for more than an hour, but you were waiting for someone?" The flower farmer asked after putting the teapot and bowl behind.

"Exactly, the kid is waiting for someone." Zhang Hua licked his somewhat dry lips and said respectfully.

The flower farmer smiled, and then poured a bowl of tea for Zhang Hua, which was also pushed in front of Zhang Hua, Zhang Hua nodded and said softly: "Thank you." ”

"Childe, what do you think of the branches and leaves that the old farmer pruned just now?" After seeing Zhang Hua finish drinking tea, the flower farmer pointed to the place he had trimmed with his right hand, and said with a hint of pride in his tone.

After hearing this, Zhang Hua also looked in the direction of the flower farmer's finger, and the branches and leaves that had been pruned by the flower farmer just now were the same height and short, symmetrical and neat, and very beautiful.

But with the unpruned branches and leaves on the side, the place now looks a little out of place.

"The old man's craftsmanship is good, and the kid watched it just now, and found that you are very attentive, and you will not let go of even the one that protrudes.

Presumably, over time, the whole garden can be changed through the old man's hands, and there is another taste. ”

Zhang Hua said sincerely, and after hearing this, the flower farmer nodded with a smile: "What the son said is right, although the old farmer is old, as long as he perseveres, the whole garden will definitely become a different look."

Although it is only a corner now, everything is from small to big, from scratch, as long as the old farmer is willing to work hard. Then you can get the results you want. ”

Zhang Hua nodded, indicating that the flower farmer was right, and turned his head to look at the entrance of the garden at the moment, and after seeing that no one had come in, Zhang Hua couldn't help but talk to the flower farmer a few more words

"Uncle, although you have the perseverance and perseverance to renovate the entire garden, have you ever thought that you have little effect by yourself, and you may even use the wrong method."

"Oh? What do you mean by Childe's words? ”

After hearing this, the flower farmer asked with curiosity on his face, Zhang Hua smiled, stood up, pointed to the pruned branches and leaves, and said, "Look, uncle, you just finished such a little thing for almost an hour.

This ceremonial garden is vast, not only the branches and leaves, but also the trunks of the trees.

It's only May, and when summer arrives, you're afraid you'll have to spend your day busy.

What's more, they grow very fast, and even if you prune them every day, the branches that you pruned before will grow again during this time.

And you can't go back again for the sake of overall beauty, and if you continue to do this, I'm afraid you'll have to spend the whole summer here, and even if you're so busy, you may end up with a reward for coming back next year. ”

Zhang Hua said slowly, and after the flower farmer heard it, he also fell into thought, and soon he looked at Zhang Hua with a trace of anxiety on his face: "What Gongzi said is reasonable, if it goes on like this, the old farmer will really run around here every day as Gongzi said."

But the old farmer has already promised his child to go to play in the water in June, and how can he go back on what he promised, and hope that the son will give the old farmer some advice. ”

"Pointing doesn't count, there are only two suggestions." Zhang Hua said, after the flower farmer heard about it, he immediately bowed his hand and asked respectfully, "Childe, please speak." ”

"The first suggestion is to let other workers in the Ministry of Rites, or idle people, help you.

You have a lot of experience and you must know a lot about flowers and plants. Calculate the time for the plant to grow, cut a little more there, cut a little less there, and have more manpower. Not only can progress be faster, but it can also make it a little easier for you.

After the whole garden was renovated, the old man's work in the future would be much easier.

In the future, as long as you prune it from time to time, then the whole garden will also become what you want, and I am also inclined to the first one. ”

Zhang Hua said, the flower farmer also thought about it after hearing it, but then, he also sighed heavily: "Childe's method is good, but it is a bit unrealistic." ”

"Oh? Why did the old man say that? Zhang Hua asked puzzled.

"Childe, because there is only one flower farmer in the entire Ministry of Rites, although there are still a few cooks in the Ministry of Rites, but they are also very busy every day, and they can't help at all."

"In the entire Ministry of Rites, is it just you and a few cooks, four or five subordinates?"

Zhang Hua said in surprise, and the flower farmer also nodded: "That's right, there are only a few of us, and the Ministry of Rites is an important department in the DPRK."

Every day here is busy, all of them are officials who run for state affairs, and they are not talented literati who come here to enjoy the scenery, of course, they don't need so many people to serve.

However, there are guards sent by His Majesty who are guarding here, but it is probably not appropriate to let the guards help the old farmer prune the branches and leaves. ”

Zhang Hua frowned, he originally thought that the Ministry of Rites would be like a big family, and there were also people and maids in it, and he thought that with their existence, he would have the first suggestion

However, it seems that this suggestion is really as unrealistic as the flower farmer said.

Zhang Hua was thinking about this at this time, and the flower farmer opened his hand at this time and asked Zhang Hua: "Childe, what about the second suggestion?" ”

"The second suggestion? It's a bit extreme, but I'm afraid it's not suitable. ”

Zhang Hua said vaguely, and after hearing this, the flower farmer also waved his hand: "Childe, you and I are just chatting, what is not suitable for saying there?" ”

"Childe said, don't worry."

After seeing Zhang Hua's hesitation, the flower farmer said again, Zhang Hua nodded, and his face became a little gloomy: "The second suggestion is to dismantle all the flowers and vegetation and plant them again!" ”

"Demolition... Demolished? The flower farmer seemed to flash his tongue, and the simple two words were also turned into two paragraphs by him.

"That's right, it's a new one" Zhang Hua looked at the intricate and intertwined branches and leaves around him, and he was also a little upset.

"Eradicate them all and plant them all over again!"

"But Childe, if it is really demolished, then the whole garden will not become bare, and it is simple, but among them, the rhizomes of flowers and plants have already been entangled in the soil, and if they are accidentally injured along with the varieties of precious flowers and plants, then is this okay?"

The flower farmer said quietly, but now it was as if he had become a different person.

There is no previous smile on his face, on the contrary, a sharp edge is slowly revealed, looking at the back of the painting, there is a deep depth in his eyes that cannot be expressed in words

"What about being bare? How can the variety be precious, the existence of flowers and plants is just for embellishment, although it is said to be a garden, but the real scenery inside is this rockery, flowing water and other things, as long as they still exist, then it is not considered to hurt the vitality.

What's more, the flowers and plants grow very fast, even if all the vegetation in them is completely removed, and they are brought to the spring next year and replanted, then they can grow again after a year.

And in this, if you take care of it carefully and prune it from time to time, then the situation at that time will not be as complicated and intertwined with each other as it is now. ”

"But Childe, what if these flowers and plants don't want to leave here?"

"Huh? What is not willing to leave? ”

After Zhang Hua heard this, he looked at the flower farmer curiously, it was obvious that he didn't understand what the flower farmer said before, the flower farmer smiled to himself, and then he also felt that he didn't express it clearly just now

"Childe, I mean. If these flowers and plants are like people, they already have feelings for this place, and they say that they are not willing to leave.

And although I want to change the whole situation, but because of the feelings, or they are already intertwined, they can't be eradicated together, so what should I do? ”

Zhang Hua glanced at him curiously, and at this time, Zhang Hua always felt that there was something in the flower farmer's words, so that he could hear something else.

But because the other party was just a flower farmer, Zhang Hua didn't have any other ideas after being curious

"Reluctant to leave? This is not a difficult matter, since the old man compares them to people, then the boy will also follow the example

A person goes through four stages, child, youth, prime, old age, and now the flowers and plants are in the prime of life, in the strong period, if the old man feels bad, it is better to wait for a while, and wait until they are old.

And the old age of flowers and plants is only a season time, not to mention, uncle, don't forget a little, you still have big scissors! ”

"Big scissors?"

"Yes, that's it, whether the flowers and plants want to leave or not, if you want to let them go, they have the slightest room to resist?

Who wouldn't want to go down with a pair of scissors and see what they can do! Although it sounds a bit of a bully in it, but whoever has the biggest weapon, then others must not be bowed, uncle, do you think what I said is right? ”
