porridge for two

There is a kind of mountain orchid on the mountain of Qinggang Village, which is a species that Xie Xiuping has not found in books or on the Internet.

The orchid leaves are slender, with two silver-white lines in the middle of the leaves, and the edges of the leaves seem to be inlaid with a layer of silver-white edges.The flowering period is from January to March, with 1-3 flowers, the color is silvery white, and the shape is like a crabapple flower.

This should be a variety under the Lankechunjian variety.When it comes to flowering season, you can smell the fragrance of the flowers from a distance.

This flower has high ornamental value, but its fertility is poor.In recent years, the orchids on the mountain have not reproduced, and no one has dug them, but there are fewer and fewer.

So Xie Xiuping went to the mountains to dig some to see if it could improve its reproductive ability, and he named it Dashanlan himself.

The trees on the mountain will be cut this winter, and the people in the village have signed all the sales contracts, and they are waiting to cut the last batch of oil this year before starting construction.

The trees on the mountain are now somewhat dead after years of exploitation, and the ones that are not dead have already stopped growing.

It is certain that blueberries will be planted after the trees are sold.

Xie Xiuping just thought that there are many plants in the mountains that can be domesticated as garden seedlings and landscaping, and he tries to dig them up and cultivate them to make the best use of them.

In the Dashan Nursery, there is an area full of plants dug from the Dashan, and some are used to make bonsai.

Propagating the plants of these mountains not only allows these plants to thrive, but also allows them to realize more value.

There is a kind of rhododendron and a kind of honeysuckle on the mountain, both of which are varieties of this family and genus. They have not yet been named. Xie Xiuping named them Dashan Rhododendron and Dashan Lonicera.

The dream flower behind my old house is also a type of daphne, and it has not been named. Xie Xiuping calls it-meng.

Xie Xiuping took the relevant materials of these plants to the relevant departments for identification and formal naming, and applied for some related patents on propagation and promotion.

There are many decades-old tree stumps in the mountains, which are very suitable for bonsai bonsai, such as pyracantha, tiger thorn, honeysuckle, goat's milk fruit, August melon, kiwi fruit, etc. , some with respectable leaves, some with respectable fruits.

And some Buxus melon seeds, Euonymus euonymus, pines and cypresses, star anise gold pan, camphor, pyracantha, etc. are propagated in large areas, and are used as ornamental landscaping plants in gardens.

Xie Xiuping and Su Zeyu are not the kind of people who can only talk about it. They are practical and capable.

For every new thing, the two learn and discuss together with the technicians.

For the villagers who are invited to do small labor, the technician guides, and the two learn along the way.

In many cases, these two people accepted it much faster, and they helped to guide the villagers who were invited to do things.

Layering, cuttings, grafting, branching, soil replacement for potted plants, packaging of potted plants, shipping, greenhouse temperature adjustment, seedling cultivation, soil preparation, watering...

Every skill seems to be the most common, especially for old farmers who have been farming for decades, these are pediatrics.

However, seedlings and flowers are delicate, and different varieties have different requirements for temperature, soil, and moisture, so they have to be treated differently.

Therefore, scientific farming is not as simple as imagined.

Whether to water in the morning or at night is particular about watering; the same plant has different watering requirements during the growth, flowering and fruiting stages, and the location of watering is also different.

The elder sister who was used to help the workers said, you cultural people are really particular, and you can plant so much culture even if you plant a flower.

But after doing what the technician said, the flowers grown grow better than those that grow naturally, without pests and diseases, with a longer flowering period, brighter flowers, stronger fragrance, and natural appearance.

With the comparison, everyone is convinced that this kind of land really has to talk about science and culture.

This morning, Xie Xiuping went to the research center to find technicians, and took a look at the reproduction and growth of Meng, Dashan Rhododendron and Dashan Lonicera, and how the potted plants were growing.

These plants have grown and reproduced in the barren mountains for decades, and suddenly changed to better soil. It may not be able to adapt quickly, and there must be a process.

Su Zeyu taught the older sisters how to divide the irises at Bai Ya's side.Iris is widely used in landscaping, grows fast, and does not require very high soil conditions.

There are a lot of irises growing in the base at Baiya, but the wild irises have not been divided, resulting in interlaced growth of rhizomes and tubers, and many leaves grow, which affects flowering.

Now is spring, which is a good time to divide the irises.

"Girls, dig a little deeper. That way, it won't be easy to hurt, and it can also avoid nutrient consumption, which is good for recovery, and can produce more beautiful flowers! Here, just like me!"

Wearing a pair of thick gloves, Su Zeyu said to the elder sisters who were digging the root of the iris while digging.

"We don't know that much! Anyway, if you teach us to dig a little, I'll dig a little deeper!"

After dividing the plants and replanting them into the soil, Su Zeyu said: "We planted a little deeper in this row, and we used it to grow seedlings. After two years, we can divide the plants again."

Su Zeyu compared the distance of a small card with his hands, and made a few nests in the soil with a hoe as a demonstration.

"Now we don't want to plant too deep in this row, it's fine if it's this deep. We mainly look at how the flowers grow, so there's a comparison."

Su Zeyu said that he compared a distance of 2 to 3 centimeters with his hands, and continued to make a nest.

"Handsome pot, what's wrong with your hands, are you still wearing gloves?"

"Ugh! I used a hoe to dig the soil some time ago, and my hands were blistered. Our technicians said that we can wear a pair of thick gloves to protect our hands. There are still many in the office, and you will get a pair by then."

"Look at your delicate skin and tender flesh, you need it! We have several layers of calluses on our hands, and we can't get any blisters!"

"Get a pair and try it on. It doesn't affect the operation. It's better to wear it." Su Zeyu suggested.

"Handsome pot, do you learn to farm? You are so good at farming! The nests are so smooth, very slippery!"

The elder sisters are not much older than Su Zeyu, they look like 37 or [-] years old.

These few people are quick in their hands, and their quality is nothing to say, just their mouths, they often tease Su Zeyu.

I don't know if everyone is too bored, and they use teasing Su Zeyu to pass the time.

"Uh! I'm a computer student! It's what everyone calls a computer!"

"Then why are you farming?"

"Because only by farming, how can the common people have food to eat, am I not also a common man?"

"Handsome guy, you're too sweet!"

I'm not Youmai, you are Youmai, why do you have to tease yourself every time, these women who have become mothers and mothers just tease him for fun.

"Handsome pot, do you have a girlfriend? I have a younger sister, I can introduce you to her!"

"Stop making trouble! Your younger sister is your daughter, right? She's only in the third grade this year, so stop making jokes about being handsome!"

"Then you still want to show off your high school niece?"

"..." Su Zeyu wanted to cry.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I already have a girlfriend! Really, I just wait for my side to be done before going back to get married.

So please, ladies and gentlemen, please do your best to help us do more. If you earn more money, we can plant the land better. My girlfriend is still waiting for me to go back and get married! "

Su Zeyu continued to work as he said.

While working, the women chattered in minority languages, but Su Zeyu couldn't understand them anyway.

Three women in one drama, these women are a big drama.

"Handsome pot, we sing Hazi folk songs to relieve boredom, don't you mind! We won't be lazy in our way of life! Otherwise, we can only tease you!"

Hearing this, Su Zeyu felt so suffocated!He himself was not wronged, but instead made these empresses feel wronged.Sing as much as you like, thank God if you save a few words of ridicule.

"Oh, I don't mind, I don't mind, you sing! But remember what I said, don't be too deep, don't be too thick, pay attention when dividing the roots, and remember to cut off some leaves! OK?"

"Haha, don't be too deep, don't be too thick, pay attention to the roots, cut off a section of leaves, OK!"

"Okay! Let's sing!"

"Okay, let's start then! Ahem!"

"Come on March [-]rd in March, Shuaiguo asked me to divide the kites. If you want the flowers to bloom well, it should be neither deep nor shallow. If you want the flowers to bloom beautifully, it should be too far away if it is neither crowded nor thick..."

Su Zeyu listened and felt wrong. Didn't he tease him? He teased him in a different way.

"elder brother!"

Just when Su Zeyu was about to cry, and was thinking about whether to say something to the elder sisters, he heard An Zi's cry.

As if he had been pardoned, he got out of the tiger's mouth. The depression and gloom just now were swept away with An Zi's cry, and he waved happily at An Zi: "Hey! Here, here!"

An Zi usually calls him Brother Gouzi, but he just thinks it is not elegant to call him a city man in front of outsiders, so he just calls him Brother.Seeing Su Zeyu's flamboyant waving, he really wanted to turn around and leave.

"My brother told you to go to the office and say Uncle, Auntie is here!"

"Oh! I'll go right away! Then you can help me to watch for a while!"

Su Zeyu patted Anzi's shoulder with his muddy gloves, and walked away happily, humming a little tune.

An Zi looked at the mud marks on the shoulders of his clothes, and then at the figure who was dangling away, he was speechless.

This man is mentally ill!

……

office building.

"Mom and Dad, why are you here? It's hard to find, isn't it?" Xie Xiuping looked bewildered when An Zi brought Su's father and Su's mother to the office.

"Let's see how you are doing! Before Xiaoyu went back to Qingzhou, we didn't come back, and we just didn't see each other. You have been busy here, so you just wanted to come and have a look!"

Su Ma said while looking at the office.

"The main reason is that the road here is not easy to walk. Next time you come, you can call in advance and I will pick you up!"

"Hey, you guys are so busy that you don't even touch the floor! We'll do it ourselves!"

"Where's Xiaoyu? Are you busy?" Father Su asked without seeing Su Zeyu.

"He's teaching the helper to divide the irises at Yajiao. I asked An Zi to call him. It's almost here!"

Xie Xiuping said as he handed the two cups of brewed tea to the two of them, and continued: "Mom and Dad, please drink some tea and rest, and when he comes, he will show you around our nursery."

Su Zeyu jumped up and down along the way, flicking his gloves in his hands, humming a little song.The joy is like a captured bird returning to the forest, and a caught fish returning to the sea.
