Guo Mianmian secretly glories herself that a group of rats are doing tricks, and she can come up with several ways to exterminate rats. If the rest of the pests, she really can't guarantee that they will be completely wiped out by the method. After assuring Gu Huai that she would save it, she withdrew her hand and turned around and nodded at Shopkeeper Song.

Without waiting for Shopkeeper Song to speak, Fang He took the first step and asked, "I don't know what Mrs. Guo found?" Is there a way to do this? ”

There is a difference between men and women, when Guo Mianmian was talking to Gu Huai just now, Fang He was standing a little farther away, and Guo Mianmian's voice was very small, he only knew that Guo Mianmian was talking, but he didn't know what Guo Mianmian was talking after all.

In the time of Guo Mianmian's communication with Gu Huai, Fang He had already learned from the mouth of the shopkeeper Song that Gu Huai's illness was at the root, but the shopkeeper Song could not confirm the detailed reasons, so he asked this question, first, he was really anxious about Gu Huai's safety, and second, he also wanted to test Guo Mianmian.

"There are some discoveries, but the details cannot be confirmed, and they need to be discussed with Song Lao." Guo Mianmian turned a deaf ear to the other party and the hidden beware, and did not tell the truth.

The truth brought by Shopkeeper Song, if you tell the reason in one mouth, don't say Fang He believe it or not, but it is inevitable to slap Shopkeeper Song in the face. This kind of stupid thing to blame, she naturally won't do it.

She also knew that if she didn't show some real skills, let alone have a relationship with the Fang family today, even her business with Ben Xinzhai would probably be affected, so her demeanor reported to Fang He, and she already knew the reason for the withering of the ancient acacia branches and leaves.

Looking at Guo Mianmian's chest, Fang He believed that she did have true skills, and said understandingly: "This is more appropriate, Mrs. Guo, please do it." As he spoke, he took two steps back and let Guo Mianmian and Shopkeeper Song discuss on their own.

Guo Mianmian walked in front of the shopkeeper Song and said his "guess": "What can hurt the roots of the ancient locust is nothing more than the rat ants underground, just now I took a closer look, there are no termites or other moths on the trees and the earth, if there is no accident, it should be the rats doing the trick." ”

Shopkeeper Song's face showed a hint of surprise, and Guo Mianmian's answer was different from his own guess. Like Guo Mianmian before, he didn't think it would be a rat at all: "I wonder how Mrs. Guo confirmed that it was a mouse?" It's clumsy, so it's more like a hornworm doing tricks. ”

The hornworm is the longhorn beetle, which is a herbivorous insect and is extremely harmful to woody plants, and its larvae will live in the trees, and will pupate and cause pores in the process of growth. If there are a large number of larvae living in the ancient locust, it is not impossible to hollow out the roots of the ancient locust.

Guo Mianmian had already thought of the rhetoric, and gradually replied: "The quality of the locust tree is cautious, and the general locust tree is not very likely to bear the lightning strike, and it is about to be split into the consciousness of the ancient locust, unless the root has already found a problem before the lightning strike, so that the root can not absorb the nutrients in the soil, resulting in the main pine will be split by the lightning." ”

Seeing that the shopkeeper Song had nothing to say about his words, Guo Mianmian asked rhetorically: "In the past, Guhuai undertook lightning strikes, and when Song Lao was treating it, did he find that there was an insect path in the trunk?" ”

The shopkeeper Song was asked, and casually slapped his forehead and said ashamedly: "The old man has been raising flowers and trees for decades, and I never thought that I really missed this. ”

"Old Song is serious, and it was your previous words that made me think a little more." Guo Mianmian said elegantly that he didn't want to occupy this achievement. She can understand that the reason is that she is stained with the light of special abilities, and if she relies on her own strength, she will not think of the rat, and she will only think that the life of the ancient acacia is over.

"Madame is not humble, could it be that the old clumsy will be jealous of you?" Shopkeeper Song joked with a smile, and browsed more and more about Guo Mianmian, who was guarding against arrogance and rashness.

Next, the old and the young inspected Gu Huai again, and after confirming that Gu Huai did bear the rat infestation, they reported the results to Fang He.

Fang He was skeptical, hesitating whether to break ground under the ancient acacia roots. The ancient locust is the treasure of the Fang family, and they are worried that the root of the tree will be damaged in the process of perceiving it, and they are worried that the taproot will really be plagued by rats, and when it is insufficient, the ancient locust will die because of it.

Guo Mianmian complained in his heart that Fang He was indecisive, not like the head of the family, and finally stood up and said his own method: "Master Fang, you ask people to find a dozen cats, and then plan some firewood and dried chili peppers, I promise that on the premise of not hurting the roots of the tree, none of these mice will be able to escape!" ”

Many people know that the difficulty is to find all the holes, so that none of the rats can escape. Otherwise, it won't be long before the taproot of the ancient acacia will be occupied by rats again, and it may not be more rampant to dig holes.

Under the guidance of Gu Huai, the servants of the Fang family found fifty-six mouse holes, and after leaving two holes in the big courtyard, he ordered people to block all the remaining fifty-four holes, and then lit a fire at one hole, and covered a sack with small holes in the other, so that more than a dozen cats were on standby, waiting for the mice to run out of the falling trap.

In this process, Guo Mianmian deliberately hid it, she deliberately led a cat, and each time she deliberately took the cat to the side of the hole. The cat smelled the smell of the mouse, so it naturally ran to the hole, so that others only regarded it as the cat's work and did not question Guo Mianmian.

There is a method of chili pepper smoking, and there are more than a dozen good cats that catch mice "on standby", the process of catching mice is very smooth, it only took less than half a time, and all the mice were swept away, and even the little mice that had just grown hair not long after their birth did not escape the killing.

As for the mouse cubs under the taproot that have just been born and have not grown hair, they have failed the lactation and body temperature of the mother mouse, and it is unknown whether they can survive tonight.

Not only are there many of these rats, there are more than one hundred and fifty of them, and they are also very large, and the big rats are about to raise the weasels. There are more than 20 such rats, and the rest are not small, no wonder they are so powerful that the taproot of the ancient acacia is about to be hollowed out.

"Come on, find fifty more cats, and feed all these rats to the cats!" Fang He looked at the stunned rats in the bag with disgust, if it weren't for Zu Xun's words that he was not allowed to kill, he would have killed them all with his own hands.

Since it is the will of heaven for cats to eat mice, then he will adapt to the will of heaven, which is not killing.

After handing over the matter, Fang He turned around and looked at Guo Mianmian in an approachable manner, and asked politely: "Now the rats have been cleaned up, but how to maintain the ancient acacia root I hope Mrs. Guo can tutor one or two." ”

Guo Mianmian shook his head, pretending to be guilty and said: "Don't hide it from Master Fang, I know very little about the maintenance of flowers and trees, I can still deal with ordinary diseases, and the ancient locust root is injured by mice, so I don't know what to do." ”

The root system of the ancient locust extends in all directions, even if the taproot is injured, there is no complete failure to have the benefits, this time provides the right amount of water for the ancient locust, with the huge root system self-repair, many years can be better.

It's just that the Fang family values Gu Huai too much, and they can't allow it to miss the slightest, Guo Mianmian knows that even if she tells the truth, Fang He won't take it, so she didn't say it.

Moreover, she got rid of it because she wanted the Fang family to owe her a big favor, but she had no intention of stealing the limelight of the Song shopkeeper and making the Song shopkeeper lose face in front of Fang He's eyes, so no matter how eye-catching the maintenance technique was, she would not let go of it to help Gu Huai repair the damaged taproot.

Fang He glanced at Guo Mianmian deeply, nodded slightly at her, and then asked Shopkeeper Song for advice, and he didn't know whether he believed it or not.

Shopkeeper Song is a cheerful person, and he has no annoyance about Guo Mianmian stealing his limelight. When Fang He asked about the maintenance method, he worked hard to explain the method of root maintenance. It's just that he doesn't confirm the level of injury to the ancient locust root, and the method he uses is more conservative, which is also much faster than the ancient acacia self-repair.

……

Coming out of the Fang family's mansion, the smile on Guo Mianmian's face never disappeared, but Guo Lin on the side looked lost, and kept chanting: "Three hundred taels of silver, a whole three hundred taels ......of silver, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone."

Before the Guo brothers and sisters left, Fang He took out three hundred taels of silver as a thank you gift, but Guo Mianmian refused to accept it. Guo Lin saw so much silver for the first time, and he only wanted to accept it for his sister, regretting that he didn't contribute to today's matter, so he could only think about it, knowing that he was not qualified to make any decisions for his sister.

Guo Mianmian had a headache from the thought, stopped and stood in front of his second brother's eyes and asked solemnly: "Second brother, what kind of family do you think the Fang family is?" Is it cost-effective to let the Fang family owe us a big favor, or to use three hundred taels of silver to break this big favor? ”

Guo Lin looked at his sister in a daze, showing in his mind what he had seen and heard when he was in the Fang family, and then thought of his own flower sauce business, and woke up in an instant.

That's right, the Fang family is a well-known family in Yunlai County, and there are relatives who are Beijing officials, so it is not easy for the Fang family to owe affection. In the same way, when the family encounters troubles in the future, they can borrow the name of the borrower's family to deal with the big troubles.

The truth, no one can guarantee that after the business of flower sauce is released, it will be able to do it safely, and the love of the Fang family is still there, even if you don't need to be determined to climb high, it will still be effective.

In any case, this affection is worth more than three hundred taels of silver!

Thinking of this, Guo Lin jumped three feet high, and excitedly pulled his sister's arm and shouted: "Or maybe my sister is smart, the second brother is almost a big deal." ”

Guo Mianmian threw a "teachable" look at the stupid second brother, but she knew that things were not so easy.

If Fang He insisted on using three hundred taels of silver to break this relationship, he had no way to refuse at all. Fortunately, today's hand showed Fang He the price of her, and Fang He also understood her intention to refuse to accept Xie Yin. In this way, you know that I know that not only are the two sides not lost, but they can also be far away and have greater benefits.

Dealing with smart people is rest assured!
