Chapter 047
Ye Shen finally tossed the old plum tree to his satisfaction, and then remembered that he hadn't cared about Lin Wan for several days, and when he found Lin Wan in the grape field under the reminder of the Wu family, he couldn't believe his eyes!
Where is that white and tender Wanwan?!
Lin Wan, who had to run to the grape field several times almost every day, was at least two to three degrees darker than a few days ago!
At this moment, Lin Wan is carefully unwrapping a certain place on the grape branch to observe the situation of the grafting, this is not the first time she has done this, she needs to adjust the amount of water sprinkled each time, the frequency of sprinkling and the concentration of fertilizer in the water according to the growth of the interface.
"Sister, go back! Look it's all dark! Ye Shen grabbed Lin Wan's little hand and pulled her to go home.
Lin Wan was taken aback, and when she saw that it was Ye Shen, her beating heart gradually calmed down: "Wait, wait, I'll go back when I wrap it." ”
Ye Shen had no choice but to let go, so he had to squat down and help Lin Wan re-tie the cloth tightly, he didn't think that doing so could save the vine.
In the following days, Lin Wan was glued by Ye Shen again.
However, the weather was getting hotter and hotter day by day, and Lin Wan also felt a little unbearable, so she only followed Father Ye to the field once in the morning and evening, but she did not relax in taking care of the vines.
Under the scorching heat of the summer sun, the uninjured vines wilted listlessly, let alone those with damaged roots.
Compared with the two vines uprooted by Lin Zimo, the vine sent by the Lin family was naturally better, but it was not much better.
These days, in addition to completing the bamboo or rattan weaving he prescribed, Father Ye has spent almost all his time in the grape field, and finally there is a high-quality variety of grape, and he will not let it die no matter what.
In addition to carrying water every morning and evening, Father Ye also specially built a shed for the vine to avoid direct sunlight as much as possible.
In the past, Lin Wan only heard a few brothers of the Ye family joke that Daddy Ye treats fruit trees like children, but now it seems that it is true, she has praised Daddy Ye countless times in Fanli, and even begged Daddy Ye to build a shed for her two vines, and specially asked for more straw to cover the roots of the vines to reduce the loss of water.
Father Ye was inspired by Lin Wan's practice and laid some straw on the roots of all the fruit trees.
The Ye family did not have good land, and the straw at home was basically asked for from Qi'an and the family, and this time they needed more, so they simply took some copper coins and bought some from the villagers.
Although the fruit trees are still wilted by the sun, they are much more energetic than before.
In addition, Ye Damin's father and son are hard-working people, and they water the fruit trees every morning and evening.
After almost a month of hard work, the vine sent by the Lin family survived, but the two vines that were replanted were fundamentally damaged, although Lin Wan tried his best, only one of them was saved in the end, and the grafting that Lin Wan took the opportunity to try was almost wiped out.
When Father Ye and Ye Damin uprooted the vine that had completely died, Lin Wan, who knew the result, was not without frustration in her heart, but she was still looking forward to it.
In order to ensure that the other vine could survive, Ye Damin persuaded Lin Wan to untie all the bandages on the vine, Lin Wan knew in her heart that this was a necessary process, but she still had some regrets.
There was a place on this vine that she had grafted with the twigs that Father Ye had cut from the Ye family's vine, and according to her observations, there were signs of recovery, but it was far from the time when the grafted wound could heal and the bandage could be lifted.
Fortunately, Ye Damin still took care of Lin Wan's mood very much, seeing that Lin Wan was reluctant to look at her untying movements, and the movements in her hands involuntarily slowed down.
Ye Damin solved several places in a row, and the vines above the broken place were all lifeless, and Father Ye followed behind and simply cut off the grape branches that had obviously no room for retention from under the broken place.
Lin Wan pursed her lips tightly and watched the movements of the two elders with an expressionless face.
It wasn't until Ye Damin got to the grafting place that Lin Wan's face changed slightly, and her eyes stared at Ye Damin even more blinkingly, which made Ye Damin involuntarily nervous, the movements in his hands stopped, looked at Lin Wan and asked, "Wanwan, is there any difference between this?" ”
Lin Wan pursed her lips, glanced at Ye Damin, and then at Father Ye, and finally pointed to the bandage that had obviously been removed before and nodded and whispered, "The branches here are different from those!" ”
"Oh, tell me how it works?" Glancing at the bandaging that didn't seem to make much difference, Father Ye asked with a smile.
If it is said that Father Ye personally proposed to adopt Lin Wan to Master Huineng in order to satisfy his son's daughter-in-law's thirst for his daughter, after this period of getting along, Father Ye really fell in love with this little girl who always loved to follow him to the field to take care of the vines.
In the face of Daddy Ye's inquiry, Lin Wan could only give a vague answer after a thousand turns: "The branches are green." ”
She couldn't pass on what she knew to the Ye family father and son, so she could only learn to say what she could see on the bright side in the way a young child spoke.
Whether the Ye family's father and son can see the difference from this, she is really not very sure.
The branches are green?
Father Ye and Ye Damin glanced at each other, and they both had their own guesses in their hearts, and when Ye Damin started to disassemble this bandage again, he was naturally more careful and meticulous.
"Dad, look." When the bandage was untied, Ye Damin was suddenly surprised and delighted.
Daddy Ye took a look at it, and sure enough, he saw a vivid green!
Although the twigs did not sprout, the connection with the main branches was completely different from the previous bandages, and the obvious greenery had clearly told them that the twigs were still alive!
Father Ye's eyes lit up, although he didn't understand why such a small branch could live, his mouth had already urged Ye Damin to quickly bandage this place back.
Ye Damin may not know, but Father Ye is Men'erqing, and he can see at a glance that the small branch that received here is not a small branch of this grapevine, but a small branch cut from under the grapevine that he sent from the Lin family that day.
If this little sprig survives, maybe there will be a bigger harvest!
Life is full of surprises.
Father Ye didn't expect that in his eyes, it was just a bandaging game played by Lin Wanwan, but he could still give him such a big surprise, and there was a little more love in his eyes when he looked at Lin Wan.
Lin Wan breathed a sigh of relief, she had already seen the future of fruit tree "grafting" from Father Ye's eyes.
Speaking of this bandage, she thought about it carefully.
The first is the choice of twigs, on the same day, taking advantage of the opportunity of Father Ye to prune the vines sent by the Lin family, Lin Wan specially asked Father Ye for a few twigs with a high degree of lignification close to the base.
The second is the selection of the grafting site. On that day, the two vines were broken in the same part, and the distance from the root was far or near, and this was the closest to the root, which was the best place for grafting.
After grafting and bandaging, Lin Wan's daily watering and fertilization are even more indispensable.
Although everyone thought that it was just a blind cat meeting a dead mouse, they were also overjoyed by it, and Chen even made a steamed egg for Lin Wan as a reward.
