Chapter 122 The Mummy Narcissus

Uncle Bai's room has been covered with dust since it has not been cleaned for several days.The most annoying thing is that the house has been turned over and smashed.

Most of the potted plants had been moved, the broken pots were scattered all over the ground, and the uprooted plants were scattered randomly.

Zhuo Feng was full of praise for the "artificial greenhouse" used to grow fruits and vegetables across seasons. All the plastic films were overturned, no cantaloupe was picked, and the melon vines also withered.

Zhuo Feng and his wife cried out that it was a pity when they saw it. They were also negligent. They only knew how to take care of others and forgot all the trees in the house.

Two-thirds of the flowers, plants and trees in the house have been removed, and most of the rest are missing arms and legs, becoming unsightly waste like Bai Juyi.

"Let's look for the narcissus pot and the narcissus bulb that Uncle Bai said first, those two things should be the most important," said Xiao Xian, although he felt sorry for the withered greenery in the room, but the most important thing right now was what Uncle Bai mentioned The pot of narcissus.

The three of them sorted out and searched in the house.Not long after, Fengxing found the narcissus basin beside Uncle Bai's bed, "I found the basin, but fortunately it was not smashed by those people." Zhuo Feng took the porcelain basin that Fengxing found.A very ordinary narcissus bone china basin, fired with white clay body, it doesn't look very special.

Zhuo Feng turned over the white porcelain basin and looked at the bottom of the basin. There was a red fired ink pad on it, with the word "plum" printed on it.

"I didn't get anything here. I didn't find any narcissus bulbs on the balcony, but I did find a pair of scissors." Zhuo Feng found a pair of scissors among a pile of pruned branches. When the noise of the crowd rushed through the door, the old man was standing beside a pot of welcoming pine with a pair of scissors in his hand.

When I came here this time, the welcoming pine tree was gone, obviously it was taken away by those villains.No daffodil bulbs were found, only an empty pot.Everything that happened in the house fell into the eyes of the three of them, and the narcissus bulbs could not be found, so no one could muster up the courage to tell Bai Juyi the news.

"Why don't we go to the flower and bird market to buy some bulbs. I think Uncle Bai is also tired of living in the hospital and wants to grow flowers." Fengxing also raised a few narcissus during the Chinese New Year. They said they were sold at the flower and bird market. Ordinary narcissus are not all the same. Besides, it is not the flowering season of narcissus, so the bulbs are better.

"Why don't you get the hang of it? Do you think that Master Bai planted ordinary narcissus, just pretending to be a narcissus?" After seeing the "Eighteen Scholars" plant in the hospital, Zhuo Feng immediately changed his name to Bai Juyi. For Master Bai.

"I don't know who used to make the old man scream loudly," Feng Xing muttered secretly, and he was also kind. After hearing this, Zhuo Feng waved the scissors in Wu's hand.

"Girl, show me the scissors in your hand." Xiao Xian noticed the pair of scissors in Zhuo Feng's hand. Uncle Bai said that he only used a pair of scissors when trimming the branches and leaves.

"This one? It can be regarded as grandma's scissors. What's so interesting about it?" Zhuo Feng waved it casually again. With this wave, there was a "snap" sound, and something broke.

A few strands of hair floated down from Zhuo Feng's ears, Zhuo Feng's ears felt chilly, what kind of scissors are these.

"Be careful, you are always frizzy," Feng Xing grabbed the scissors.The black scissors are only the size of a palm, and they seem to have been used for many years, but the blades of the scissors are very sharp.With a light flick of the finger, the scissors made of no discernable material made a long and long echo.
"There is also the word 'Mei' on the scissors," Feng Xing was still careful, and a mosquito-sized character was engraved on the cutting position of the scissors, which was the same as the seal on the narcissus basin.

"Master Bai's wife seems to be named Mei. When he got sick that day, he said the word 'Mei Xiang'." Women are always a bit gossip, let alone those like Zhuo Feng who love to watch their mother-in-law. Emotional drama woman.However, Bai Juyi's wife passed away decades ago, gossip about something related to the dead is like eating an overnight meal, it doesn't taste much.

Thinking of the pitiful spirit of the old man in the hospital, Zhuo Fengdi's leftover branches and leaves were poured into the garbage bag, and Xiaoxian was just trying to see the scissors in Fengxing's hand when a gray-brown round object rolled onto the ground. feet.

The gray-brown round object looks very inconspicuous. At first glance, it was just garbage. When Zhuo Feng bent down to pick it up, he squeezed it slightly with his hand and whispered, "This is a narcissus bulb."

This unknown object hidden in the garbage is actually a narcissus bulb, or a shriveled bulb that can be called a narcissus mummy.

After finding the narcissus bulb, even Zhuo Feng wanted to buy a new bulb to pretend to be: "I think it's better to go to the flower and bird market to buy one. No matter how you look at it, this one doesn't look like it can bloom."

People who know how to grow narcissus will trim the bulbs after the winter flowering period, and then store them properly for the next year. The pot of narcissus that Xiaoxian raised in Gecun a few years ago is very good.

Generally speaking, people who raise narcissus will choose suitable sandy soil to cultivate new seedlings when the temperature is suitable in autumn.The method is nothing more than peeling off the dry scales on the surface of the overwintering corms, and then cutting off the excess dead roots.

Choose to make a few vertical cuts on the abdomen and back of the bulb to loosen the fresh scales and facilitate the natural growth of the scape leaves of the narcissus. As long as the flower buds are not damaged, it can be planted in sandy soil or clear water.

Counting the time, autumn is also a good season for cultivating narcissus. "Girl, show me the bulb." Xiaoxian held the bulb in his hand, and then stretched out his hand to peel off the ugly scales. The strange thing is that although the skin of the bulb of the narcissus is dry, it seems that there is no water at all. , the whole corm is still heavy in the hand.

After peeling one layer after another, after five layers, the skin inside is still the same, and it is undoubtedly a dry and dead bulb.

"If you soak it in the water at night, you might live," Feng Xing said, before Zhuo Feng scolded him, "Don't pretend to understand, you really know how to use chemical solvents if you want to raise them. These are bean sprouts, and they will grow taller once they are fermented with water." Zhuo Feng reported the names of a series of chemical culture solutions.

"No, I'm afraid this corm can only be handed over to Mr. Bai himself," Xiaoxian checked carefully, but there was no information about this corm, neither what species it was nor where it was produced. It looked like a Three no products.It is impossible to cultivate plants that can't even be seen in the copper space with ordinary cultivation methods.

After sorting out Uncle Bai's old house, Xiao Xian and Zhuo Feng selected more than ten broken potted plants respectively.

"Those who came to snatch potted plants only knew how tall the flowers were, and they really missed a few," Zhuo Feng picked out a Clivia that hadn't bloomed and a pot of miniature money pine.

Xiaoxian also picked a lot, some camellias and some chrysanthemums, but they were all broken branches, so it is difficult to bloom again this year.Zhuo Feng also discovered that Xiaoxian has a lot of research on flowers, and he doesn't know if it was taught by Uncle Bai or Zhu Shijun.

After picking out the flowers, the three of them moved the flowers to the roof overnight. After more than a month of autumn, the temperature in BJ is still warm, and the flowers can still be planted outdoors for the time being, but after winter, I’m afraid There is no place to move.

After Zhuo Feng instructed Fengxing to move all the flowerpots, he ran a few times in person to bring up all the "artificial greenhouses" that had been discarded in Uncle Bai's house. She is growing vegetables at home these days. Hua also has some experience.

The soil that was originally flat on the ground on the roof was rested and consolidated into a new wooden pot cart similar to the bunk beds in the school.The wooden basin on the car is also specially made, about 25 centimeters high, and it is hung with iron hooks. There are two upper and lower layers, which can be loosened and rotated.According to the degree of yin or yang of vegetables, move the tray in the morning and evening.It saves space, and the roof looks a lot cleaner.

Zhuo Feng has also checked the materials of those "artificial greenhouses", and they can be rebuilt after only one cleaning.She thinks she doesn't have the cultivation skills like Bai Juyi, and she doesn't dare to try to grow XJ cantaloupe. She just plans to piece together several "artificial greenhouses" into a medium-sized "rooftop greenhouse", which can help the crops upstairs to live a healthy life. Frozen winter.

After a whole night of hard work, the "artificial greenhouse" was roughly sorted out. In order to prevent Mr. Bai's nephew from coming to the door again, Zhuo Feng greeted the neighbors downstairs and said that a thief broke into the roof a few days ago. For safety reasons, the doors to the roof will be locked from now on.

The neighbors didn't have much opinion. If the thief really went to the roof to steal from the top to the bottom, everyone would suffer. This building is also a dual-career family. It is even more disturbing to have the roof open.

The community's neighborhood committee offered to send a big lock the next day, and Fengxing put a lock on the roof.

Thanks to the sports meeting, Xiaoxian’s vacation lasted for four days. Originally, she planned to take the opportunity to go outside to find out if there was a satisfactory garbage collection station, and to find some scrap copper for "sugar cane seedlings", but now because of Bai Juyi's illness, Had to put things off.

On the day the daffodil bulbs were delivered, the pair of scissors and daffodil pots were also brought there

Bai Juyi just collected it silently, and didn't see him pruning the bulb with a knife.

However, after he got those two things, his mood improved a lot. He also listened to the nurse's persuasion and ate a bowl of porridge. Seeing the two girls, one big and one small, winking at each other, he opened his mouth first: "Do you have something to say?" Just ask."

Xiao Xiangang wanted to ask the origin of the word "Mei", but Zhuo Feng quickly stopped him, how could he mention the matter of his deceased wife in front of the old man, children are just ignorant, "No, it's just that my Fengxing said your scissors Where did you buy it, it’s quite sharp, I want to buy one.”

Domestic scissors are all engraved with the manufacturer's trademark. For example, the scissors produced by "Zhang Xiaoquan" have uniformly retained the habits of the older generation and are imprinted.

After hearing this, Bai Juyi burst out laughing, and said slowly: "The pair of scissors are left by my wife."

When Zhuo Feng heard this, he really wanted to slap himself a few times, but fortunately she still had the face to talk about Xiaoxian, and she talked about it, and she was also the material for which pot was not opened and which pot was not opened.

Xiaoxian looked at Bai Juyi, and seeing that he intended to continue, he quickly signaled Zhuo Feng not to ask any further questions, and asked him to continue.
