After the divorce, I became a mountain god

Xu Bo'an listened for a while and heard every word they said in private.

He was speechless, he just talked about work with Yang Mi yesterday and then sent her back, but others spread it into such a story. The halo of this big star is indeed not exaggerated.

Xu Bo'an thought about it carefully again and found the clue. This true rumor was completely directed at him and had a very adverse impact on him. Who was maliciously spreading the rumors behind him? Who had such a great hatred for him?
Although this kind of rumor won't send you to jail, it's still extremely disgusting!

Xu Bo'an immediately thought of several possible people in his mind, but he was not panicked. After all, these rumors were just rumors. As the saying goes, a man with a clear conscience has nothing to fear. During his tenure, he did not embezzle a single penny from the public funds, and he could definitely withstand investigation.

"Hmph, if you dare to mess with me, Xu Bo'an, you are simply seeking death. Just wait and see, I will definitely catch you bastards." Xu Bo'an thought so in his heart, and left the cafeteria after finishing his meal.

After returning to the office, Xu Boan went back to the inner lounge to take a lunch break as usual. He was not affected by this incident at all. After all, Xu Boan was too lazy to think about this matter. He just had to deal with it as it came.

After lunch break, Xu Boan went out to the office and continued working. After a while, he heard the sound of high heels in the corridor, but the sound of high heels was different from the past. It sounded very urgent. After a while, Xu Boan heard someone knocking on the office door. After Xu Boan said "come in", he saw that the person coming was Tang Xiaotong. She was wearing a professional suit, which made her figure look very curvy. As soon as she entered the office door, she quickly closed the door, with an anxious expression on her face, and walked towards Xu Boan.

Seeing Tang Xiaotong's anxious look, Xu Bo'an said, "Xiaotong, what's wrong with you today? Is there something important? Why are you so anxious? This is not in line with your usual style."

Tang Xiaotong said quickly: "Boss Xu, this is not a joke, it's a big deal. I just went to the bathroom and overheard someone saying that you took advantage of your position to embezzle public funds, and they also said that you... you."

Tang Xiaotong seemed to be hesitant to speak when she got to this point. Xu Bo'an pretended not to know about this matter and said, "What else do you have to say? Just say it. Why are you stuttering?"

Tang Xiaotong stamped her feet and said, "And they said that you, Mr. Xu, used the money you embezzled to support a famous star."

Xu Bo'an looked at Tang Xiaotong and said with a smile, "Do you believe these rumors? Why are you so nervous?"

Tang Xiaotong said, "Mr. Xu, I know you very well, but these rumors are so detailed that people who don't know you will definitely believe them. I'm afraid that such a good person like you will be ruined by these false rumors, so I came to inform you as soon as I heard about them so that you can be mentally prepared."

Xu Boan said calmly: "Okay, thank you for telling me this."

Tang Xiaotong was surprised to see Xu Boan's nonchalant look on his face. Even though she already knew that Xu Boan was about to leave, this kind of rumor was very scary.

During the two years that Tang Xiaotong has been in the unit, she has come to understand that the overt and covert struggles in the workplace are very fierce. If one is not careful, one might be sent to prison and have to eat rice for a few years. Xu Boan had helped Tang Xiaotong a lot before. In Tang Xiaotong's heart, Xu Boan was her lifesaver. She didn't want to see her benefactor end up like this, so she was very anxious.

Xu Boan saw that Tang Xiaotong was very anxious, and continued, "It's okay. I'm not that easy to bully. I will handle this matter. Don't worry."

Tang Xiaotong still looked worried and said, "Mr. Xu, you must be careful recently to avoid letting those who want to harm you take advantage of you. You are my benefactor, and I don't want to see anything happen to you. If you need my cooperation, you must tell me."

After hearing Tang Xiaotong's words, Xu Boan felt a warm current in his heart. He thought that this girl was not bad and he did not misjudge her. Although he had helped her before, Xu Boan was still very pleased to see someone like her who knew how to repay a favor, because in life Xu Boan had seen too many ungrateful and unrequited people, and even many people who burned their bridges after crossing them and turned the tables on others.

Thinking of this, Xu Bo'an said, "Thank you for your concern. I will call you if I need your assistance."

After listening to Xu Boan's words, Tang Xiaotong thought of the several times Xu Boan had been framed and the other party had never succeeded. Then she thought of the times Xu Boan had stood up for her before, and realized that Xu Boan still had his own way of doing things. Her worries were slightly alleviated, and she walked out of Xu Boan's office.

Xu Boan was not in the mood to review the documents on his desk. After simply tidying them up and placing them on the desk, he sat in his office chair and began to think carefully about the matter. He must think of a foolproof plan to find out the person behind the rumor. After thinking for a while, he still couldn't figure it out. Xu Boan looked at the time and it was almost time to get off work, so he drove towards the Central Courtyard where he lived.

After returning home, Xu Bo'an simply put this annoying matter behind him and began to enjoy his leisure time at home.

Thinking of the sachet that Li Qingshi gave him to find Sun Weiwei in the bonsai world, Xu Boan focused his consciousness on the bonsai world and reached out to take out the sachet from his storage room.

Xu Boan took the sachet and looked at it carefully. The sachet looked very delicate. It was made of dark blue satin with lotus patterns embroidered on it. Every petal looked lifelike.

There are also two mandarin ducks embroidered on the side. Although they are purely hand-embroidered, the two mandarin ducks have elegant postures, delicate and shiny feathers, and they seem to be swimming leisurely in the water. Their eyes reveal affection and attachment, and they snuggle up to each other and are inseparable.

There are tassels hanging on the four corners of the sachet, which add a sense of agility to it. Looking closely, the sewing craftsmanship of this sachet is very sophisticated, the stitches are fine and even, and its size is moderate, which does not appear too ostentatious while ensuring that the spices inside are fully released. This is enough to show Sun Weiwei's needlework skills, which are quite amazing.

Such handicrafts are absolutely rare nowadays!
Xu Boan held the sachet to his nose and sniffed it carefully. He found that the sachet contained a variety of natural spices including sandalwood, borneol and some dried flowers. The mixture exuded a fresh yet warm fragrance, which could both refresh the mind and soothe people's hearts.

Xu Bo'an couldn't help but sigh, "Wow, Sun Weiwei really spent a lot of money to make this sachet for Li Qingshi. The four legendary incense sticks are all used in it. Sandalwood and camphor are extremely rare. Even in the real world, some rich people may not have seen this thing. Even in ancient times, due to the difficulty of collecting and making these spices, the production is scarce and the price is expensive, so they are only used by the upper class."

Xu Boan wondered if Sun Weiwei had all these things. Was it because the bonsai world was rich in them? Or was it because Sun Weiwei was the daughter of a merchant and had taken advantage of her father? If there were really a lot of these things in the bonsai world, then this would be a new business method for him.

Xu Boan instantly recalled the records in the Zhang family's ancestral medical book, which stated that sandalwood and borneol were not only two extremely precious spices, but also had extremely high medicinal value.

In addition to some common effects such as regulating qi and relieving pain, dispelling cold and warming the stomach, calming the nerves and helping sleep, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, clearing away heat and detoxifying, dispelling wind and dampness, promoting blood circulation and relieving pain, relieving cough and relieving asthma, it is said that it can also be effective for some difficult and complicated diseases or even terminal illnesses.

If Li Qingshi had not given these two precious spices to Xu Boan in order to find Sun Weiwei, Li Qingshi would have hidden them like treasures and would not easily show them to others. Xu Boan would not have noticed these things at all. Now that he knows about them, it means that these things must exist in the bonsai world, which arouses Xu Boan's strong desire to find them.

Xu Bo'an was thinking about whether he should ask some elders in Kaoshan Village if they knew anything about sandalwood trees and borneol trees, but at this point, the residents of Kaoshan Village must have already rested.

When Chen Shishi was around, she slept very late and was a well-educated woman. But now she has gone back to her hometown with her younger brother Yan Shiliu, and it is difficult to contact her on the road, so Xu Boan can't find her for a while.

You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so we'll have to wait until tomorrow.

Xu Boan was just thinking about turning around and talking about it, when suddenly his eyes swept across the trees in the woods, and then his eyes suddenly lit up.

Yes, how could I forget about the other contestant!
Xu Boan immediately thought of his mountain-protecting little hairy peach tree!

Yes, that peach tree has been awakened for many years, so it should be very knowledgeable. Besides, sandalwood and camphor are both produced by plants. They belong to the same plant category, so perhaps it can know more about them.

Thinking of this, Xu Bo'an turned his attention directly to the peach tree without saying a word. He found that after not seeing it for a few days, the small tree had grown more lush and green, with luxuriant branches and leaves, and lush green. The dense canopy blocked out the sun, and from a distance it looked like a huge green umbrella standing there, full of vigor and vitality.

Wow, it's growing too fast, Xu Boan thought, maybe it's due to the nutrient solution I gave it a few days ago.

Xu Boan said, "Xiaoshu, Xiaoshu, are you there?"

When the peach tree heard that it was the Mountain God, its branches and leaves swayed joyfully, as if to warmly welcome him. Soon, the silhouette of a young woman appeared above the tree. The woman quickly made a gesture of blessing and said with joy in her voice, "Mountain God, I'm here, I'm here. You've come just in time. I have great news to tell you. Do you think I've grown a lot stronger recently?"

Xu Boan asked curiously, "What good news makes you so excited? I can see that you look like a new person, and your vitality is even stronger than before."

The little tree said happily, "Yes, yes, I am like this now, all thanks to you, Grandpa Mountain God. Since you gave me the magic water last time, I have been bathing with it every day. It hasn't been long since I became like this. Even the human form I have transformed into doesn't feel as ethereal as before. It feels much more fulfilling. If this continues, I feel that in a while I can directly transform into a human form and walk around freely like humans."

Xu Boan was very shocked when he heard what the little tree said. Wow, it can be transformed into a human form directly. This is too amazing. It turns out that it is really the credit of the tree nutrient solution that he gave the little tree last time. Xu Boan really didn't expect such a big effect before. If he had known it earlier, he would have given it earlier. It seems that his experiment was successful again. Xu Boan was thinking happily like this.

Suddenly, he heard Xiaoshu sigh again. Xu Bo'an looked at Xiaoshu in confusion and asked, "Yes, this is great news. I'm happy for you. But you looked so happy just now. Why are you sighing again now?"

The little tree replied with a tone full of regret: "It is indeed great news that I can transform into a human form. It's a pity that the peach seedling I nurtured was growing well, but recently I don't know why it has become more and more wilted. I am really worried that it will die in a while. Thinking of your great magical powers, Grandpa Mountain God, I was just thinking of asking you for help to take a look, and then you came."

After listening to the little tree's words, Xu Bo'an carefully analyzed it in his mind and said, "Oh? You are getting stronger, but the peach tree seedling is getting weaker? This shouldn't be the case. Could it be that your rapid growth has absorbed most of the nutrients, so the peach tree seedling is getting weaker? Or maybe you have done something different recently that affected the growth of the seedling?"

After thinking carefully for a while, the little tree said, "Little peach tree, you were growing well before. Recently, apart from bathing with the magic water that you, the mountain god, gave me, I didn't do anything different from usual."

Is it because the tree nutrient solution can only be used on older trees? This is not right. Xu Boan clearly remembered that there was no special indication in the instructions for use, which means that it can be used for both older trees and seedlings.

Xu Boan would not dare to be careless about such things. After all, these peach trees were very precious things, and Xu Boan hoped to make great use of them in the future.

So Xu Bo'an hurriedly took out his mobile phone, opened Kuaishou, checked it out, and soon found the problem.

Watching the professional's explanation, Xu Bo'an slapped his head and thought he was really stupid. He even forgot to pay attention to this matter. (End of this chapter)
