Xu Yin paid little attention to campus forums.

A few small worlds of the old era are worn down, and I really can't remember such a thing as a mobile phone.

In addition to answering the phone or shopping for some things online and checking some information, I always forget that it exists.

But because of this, she can concentrate on her studies without distractions.

In a blink of an eye, the semester has come to an end again.

After a semester of systematic study, she has gained a lot in courtyard landscape design, and the progress of her family yard is the best proof -

When you open the gate of the courtyard full of white triangular plums, you will be greeted by a hand-built flowing fish pond, and between the natural stone crevices that are scattered and layered, gurgling water flows, bringing a bit of vitality to the courtyard.

Around the fish pond is planted a circle of different heights of moisture-loving spices, the tall ones are lemongrass, herbs, and calamus, and the short ones are water knotweed, kaempfera, and wild mint.

There are also a few blooming water lilies and a few high-quality koi fish floating in the fish pond, swimming and playing among the lotus leaves, forming a group of mini Chinese-style water features with flowing water and green plants.

The west side of the fish pond is a natural bluestone road leading to the indoors, the east side of the stone road is a small piece of green lawn, the east courtyard wall is shared with the old lady's house next door, the old lady's house has planted a lot of flowers, some have even climbed the wall, Xu Yin simply planted a bush of purple bamboo, and not directly planted in the ground, but with a large round mouth potbelly ceramic jar, made a purple bamboo bonsai. lest it grow bigger and bigger, and affect the foundation of the house.

On both sides of the courtyard gate, there are several pots of beautiful cherry blossoms and summer viress in bloom.

To the west of the fish pond, a rest table was made, a solid wood tea table and a small stone bench for anti-corrosion, you can drink tea and bask in the sun in winter, and you can take advantage of the shade to watch the stars in summer.

In the past of the rest table, connected to the side yard, there are groups of spice bonsai arranged in a staggered manner, there are more precious varieties, and there are also common varieties with a particularly beautiful flowering period.

The bonsai pots are all custom-made by her own painting style, some with round mouths and big bellies, and some exquisite and exquisite; Some are colorful, while others are plain and simple. Each pot corresponds to a spice, which is unique and cannot be found in the outside market.

The backyard is mainly a spice area, and she transplanted the spice trees that were planned at the beginning, but she was not satisfied with the saplings she found outside, so she simply replaced them with the stockpiles in the system warehouse.

After being infiltrated by the spiritual mist, these saplings were transplanted very smoothly, and in less than ten days after planting, new shoots were drawn, and the growth was quite gratifying.

In the corner of the backyard, a cute birdhouse with a log color was built, which was mainly decorated, and the bird raising was not considered for the time being.

But unexpectedly, the second week after the bird house was built, she came home to find two more birds in the yard.

I don't recognize the specific species, but looking at their shiny feathers and beautiful beaks, I always feel that they don't look like wild birds and finches in nature, and most of them are domestic.

But the two birds seemed to approve of her family's bird house, lived here and did not leave, and flew back after a while.

Every day, peck the leaves of the spice tree or the grass seeds in the bonsai to eat, and if this continues, you must not peck the freshly planted trees and grass in the yard.

Xu Yin couldn't cry or laugh, so she had to spend 500 energy points to exchange for a bird food formula, make a jar of nutritious bird food, and feed them regularly every day. When she went to school, she asked Xu's father to feed her once when she came home.

Fortunately, the two birds seem to know that they can't poop at will, and the bird poop is concentrated on the ground opposite the birdhouse.

This made her even more convinced that the two birds were domesticated, poked into the owner group, and sent a message asking who had lost the birds.

No one has come to claim it yet, so she put a clay pot on the ground under the bird house, and the bird droppings fell in the clay pot accurately, and she used it to compost the flower manure when she saved too much.

On the side of the courtyard wall, two sweet mahogany trees are planted.

It belongs to the Rosaceae family, and has a strong ability to climb vines, planted this spring, and must have climbed to the third floor next spring, with bright and bright flowers pouring down with the plants from a high place, forming a beautiful flower sea waterfall.

And the special thing about this flower is that the flowers are bright and intense, but the fragrance of the flowers is fresh and elegant, and the combination of blooming red flowers and emerald green branches and leaves gives people the warmth and romance of the quiet years.

Xu Yin once used this flower to create a fragrance with beautiful color and elegant fragrance. It has always been one of the best in the spice industry with both beauty (beauty) and ability (vine climbing).

To the north of the east courtyard wall, a black pepper plant and a green pepper plant were planted.

Black pepper climbs walls, and green peppercorns are shrubs and thorny, so they are planted in corners.

To the south of them, a set of pergolas was installed and two gourds were planted.

When it is young, it can be eaten as a vegetable, and when it is old, it can be made into a container for spices.

From the front yard to the backyard, it's not all lawn.

Natural bluestone slabs are laid in it, so that your shoes will not get dirty even in rainy weather.

On both sides of the stone slab, a group of bonsai is arranged from time to time, walking slowly, and there are scenery along the way.

Xu Yin spent four months finishing her homework and decorating the courtyard little by little to the way she wanted.

When the final design was handed over to Professor He, he praised her, not only praising her for her spirituality, but also giving her an additional task:

"This is a friend who asked me to help, you also take a copy to practice, and when the time comes, I will give him all your design drafts and let him choose them himself."

Professor He has brought five graduate students, and if an acquaintance comes to him for help, he will let the students participate in the practice as long as time permits.

Of course, if an acquaintance is not satisfied with the plan designed by the student, then there is no need for him to do it.

If the other party takes a fancy to one of the students' design proposals, Professor He will transfer all the design money to the student after the design money is received.

This is also the reason why college students are still willing to choose Professor He as a graduate supervisor although they are afraid of Professor He's old-fashioned and stern, and even if there are too many applicants, they have to rely on grabbing.

It stands to reason that Xu Yin, a sophomore undergraduate, is not studying landscape design in this major, this is only her second major, and she has just started a minor this semester, so she is not eligible to participate in graduate projects.

But I can't stand Professor He's liking her hard work, and the novelty and creativity in her design drawings, it's just an opportunity, and if you give it, it's up to her to seize it.

Although Xu Yin was a little surprised, listening to the professor's meaning, there were many people involved, and she was a novice in the landscape design industry, at best, to practice.

"Thank you, teacher, I will do my best to complete it!"

One really dares to give, and one really dares to take!

But this matter, except for Professor He and Xu Yin himself, no third party knows about it for the time being.

Xu Yin vacated the gap for the final review and preparation, turned on the scene simulation before going to bed, completed the design draft against time, handed it to Professor He, and then didn't care about it anymore.

Until the end of the final exam, the long-awaited summer vacation came, and the students discussed where to play, but Xu Yin still carried a bag of books to the restaurant to help Xu's father during the winter vacation, and Professor He called and asked her bank card number.

The design drawings she handed in were favored by his friends, although some places were slightly immature, but they were new, and Professor He slightly modified and polished them, which was a satisfactory work.
