Chapter 22: The Country Boy
In the early morning, the sky was slightly bright, and Ye Dong got up, he had always been used to getting up early.
When I came to the garden, I glanced at Miss Wen's room from a distance, and saw that the door was closed, and there was no one outside, probably still sleeping, Ye Dong turned to admire the flowers and plants.
The flowers are blooming brilliantly and beautifully, and all kinds of grass and trees are also full of greenery and vitality, which shows that their owners are really well cared for.
The early morning wind reveals a hint of coolness, and the fragrance of fresh flowers wafts in the wind, which makes people feel refreshed.
"You, is this the place you can come!?"
Just as Ye Dong was intoxicated by the fragrance of flowers and plants, a scolding suddenly came from behind him.
Ye Dong hurriedly turned around to look, only to see a young man who was older than him, about sixteen or seventeen years old, glaring at him angrily, looking very angry.
He was dressed in a noble robe, and his demeanor had a majestic style, and his eyebrows were somewhat similar to Miss Wen Er.
"Hello Childe, I'm a new housekeeper, responsible for helping the second lady take care of this garden and take care of these flowers and plants. Ye Dong explained.
"Brother, he is a flower girl I invited, you are not allowed to embarrass others. With a "squeak", Miss Wen's door opened, and she said so.
"Xiaorou, this kid is also worthy of being your flower girl?" asked the richly dressed son.
It turns out that this Miss Wen Erfang has a gentle name, she is really like her name, her name is good, and her temperament is better. And the brother in her mouth is Wen Yan, the eldest young master of the Wen family, which is a bit unworthy of the name.
Wen Yan is usually a relatively frivolous person, and even Wen Tao, the head of the Wen family, is not very calm about him, but he is very doted on this sister who is two years younger than him, almost to the point of obeying his words, and he is a full sister.
Gentle and coquettish: "Brother, why do you talk like this, Ye Dong is very good." ”
"Didn't you take good care of these flowers and plants by Xiaolan and Xiaoyue before, why do you want this country boy to manage them now?" Wen Yan asked.
Ye Dong secretly scolded in his heart: What's wrong with the country boy, the country boy is also more handsome than you, and the country boy is more educated than you and knows how to be polite than you.
said gently: "Xiaolan and Xiaoyue are girls after all, and they usually have to serve me and manage these flowers and plants, how can they be busy." ”
"Really?" Wen Yan asked, looking incredulous.
"Really, what do you think?" Gentleness lengthened her voice, revealing a sense of helplessness in it.
"Okay," Wen Yan couldn't harden his heart when he saw his sister like this, turned to Ye Dong, his tone was serious, and he said in a commanding tone, "Boy, you have to take good care of every flower and grass here, if something goes wrong, you will be comfortable." ”
His tone contained a threatening tone, which made Ye Dong very uncomfortable, but Ye Dong had experienced many similar things since he was a child, and many times, even if he was angry in his heart, he was able to hide it well.
Ye Dong said calmly: "I will." ”
Wen Yan no longer paid attention to Ye Dong, but said to Wen Wen: "Xiaorou, I just came back from outside today, and I came here from you." ”
At that moment, the two brothers and sisters said some kind words, and Ye Dong, an outsider and a subordinate, walked away a little wisely.
Ye Dong casually glanced over there, only to see that Wen Yan seemed to say something to Gentle, holding Gentle's hand, and Gentleness shook his head.
After being entangled for a while, I don't know what Wen Yan said to Wen Yan, Wen Yan smiled and went happily.
Gentleness walked over to Ye Dong and said, "I'll teach you how to take care of these flowers and plants first." She used the word nursing, which shows that she takes good care of these flowers and plants.
Ye Dong agreed, listened carefully, and took what she said to heart.
"It is necessary to strengthen the management of water and fertilizer, but we must pay attention to the proportion, too much. Wen Wen began to explain patiently, "The watering of potted flowers should be determined according to the season and the habits of the flowers, their growth conditions, the size of the pot, the texture, and the characteristics of the flower soil. The principle of watering most flowers is to see dry and wet, dry and wet. ”
"Be careful not to water with cold water at noon in summer, so as not to have too much temperature difference between water and soil temperature, which will damage the absorption capacity of flower roots. Flowers should be pruned, shaped, and yellow leaves removed regularly to make them more beautiful. ”
Then gently explained some specific matters and operation methods, such as how long is the regular period, how to prune, it can be said that it is a hands-on teaching.
"Do you remember?" asked Gentle at the end.
"Remembered. As long as he doesn't recognize the way, Ye Dong is quite confident in his memory in other aspects.
The master and servant have always been gentle and said on the side, Ye Dong has been listening quietly, nodding and agreeing from time to time, at this moment, as soon as the gentle words are finished, the two of them feel too close, a little too close, and they are a little embarrassed by each other.
Gently glanced at Ye Dong, who had carefully explained to him how to take care of flowers and plants, but now he noticed that after he changed into a new dress, he looked even more handsome.
"Oh, what are I thinking? Gentleness couldn't help but take a sip in her heart, "Gentle, gentle, are you Sichun?"
In fact, there is nothing in this book, which girl is not pregnant with spring, which teenager is not in love.
It's just that gentleness rarely comes into contact with those men in the outside world, and most of the people I usually see are some gentlemen, or pretentious, or pretending to be chic, or flamboyant, or unlearned, in short, there are some more or less offensive problems.
And Ye Dong is different, Ye Dong's handsome face has a pair of very special eyes, which exude a very special brilliance, pure and clear, full of energy, but subtle and introverted, extremely sincere;
Just like a humble gentleman, gentle as jade, such a beautiful boy makes many men jealous, and how many young girls with spring will be haunted by their dreams and never forget.
Those eyes were as bright as starlight, gentle and firm, and there were so many unspeakable stories hidden.
Ye Dong and Wen Rou each retreated, separated by a distance, and said gently: "If you have any questions and don't understand, you can ask me." ”
"Good. Ye Dong replied succinctly.
Gentle said that he would teach Ye Dong for three days, this was the first day, and he taught some basics.
Although Ye Dong lived separately from the rest of his subordinates, and did the easy work that others were envious of, he still ate with them.
During the meal, a young man of the same age as Ye Dong took the initiative to greet Ye Dong: "My name is Feng Hao, what is your name?"
"Ye Dong. Ye Dong replied nonchalantly, in his opinion, this young man was a little too enthusiastic.
The boy named Feng Hao seems to be a self-acquaintance: "I think you are so mysterious and don't talk much." ”
Ye Dongdao: "I don't know what to say." ”
At that moment, Feng Hao talked to him again, from a bad family background to wandering, from wandering and chatting to entering the Wen Mansion, Ye Dong listened, and was a little moved, this Feng Hao's experience was actually a little similar to himself.
In Wen Yan's words, they are all country boys.
Ye Dong's daily life trajectory is like this: working during the day, cultivating late at night, working hard to save money, striving to enter a powerful sect as soon as possible, and learn a powerful skill.
But what is the specific sect, he hasn't thought about it yet, in short, save more money first, this is the premise.
In the next two days, Wen Rou taught Ye Dong how to identify those flowers and plants, and their names and characteristics were told one by one.
Ye Dong looked at the flowers in full bloom in the garden, colorful and pleasant, and he felt indescribably pleasing to the eye. Not only are these flowers beautiful, but they also have beautiful names, and their meanings and stories are poignant and moving.
Wen Rou didn't treat Ye Dong as a servant at all, in the process of talking to him about flowers, he seemed to treat him as a good friend, willing to share his favorite things, the most precious things with Ye Dong.
Because she thinks that Ye Dong will understand, he will be a person who understands flowers, and he will take good care of and cherish them.
