Pastoral Daily Life

Chapter 41: compete

"I'm looking for Yan Yue, is he there?"

Lu Lingxi was stunned for a moment, it was the first time someone came to the store to look for Yan Yue. When he came back to his senses, he rolled his eyes and said politely: "Big Brother Yan is not here now. He went to the flower garden to pick up the goods. He should be back soon. Do you want to sit and wait for Big Brother Yan?"

"Okay, trouble you. I'm Ye Kang, are you Lu Lingxi?"

"Huh?" Lu Lingxi was surprised, then laughed, "I'm Lu Lingxi, did Brother Yan tell you?"

Yan Yue grew up with him, and they always talked about everything. Even outsiders would find the privacy of their home disgraceful to him. Only on Lu Lingxi, Yan Yue refused to say anything, and was so stingy that he didn't even want to reveal his name. It was when Su Lang called him a few days ago and mentioned that he had seen Yan Yue once, and he just followed the clues and asked Yan Yue's location.

Ye Kang was hiding from Yan Yue this time, and he was a little worried about Yan Yue. Ye Kang never saw the battles of the Yan family. He believed that Yan Yue could handle it well, but Ye Kang was a little worried about this sudden appearance of Lu Lingxi. Accustomed to all kinds of conspiracy theories, Ye Kang always felt that Lu Lingxi's appearance was too coincidental, and the more abnormal Yan Yue's reaction was, the more it explained Lu Lingxi's influence on him. Ye Kangsi thought about it and decided to come and see Lu Lingxi in person.

Seeing this, Ye Kang finally felt relieved. As a psychiatrist who Yan Yue called "half-handed", Ye Kang felt that he was quite accurate in seeing people. The young man in front of him looked simple and easy to deceive, and he was ignorant of world affairs. He had always worried that it was the young man who bewitched Yan Yue. Now it seems that he needs to reverse it. It is not certain who deceives who.

Thinking like this, Ye Kang's expression became more gentle. He has a good skin like Yan Yue, and unlike Yan Yue's coldness to outsiders, Ye Kang has always been able to use this skin to gain the favor of others. He also majored in psychology at university, and it is no exaggeration to say how to coax people as a profession. After a few words of chat, Lu Lingxi's goodwill towards him rose. When Ye Kang spoke, the pace was not too fast or too slow, and the rhythm was controlled quite well, and he took a lot of words from Lu Lingxi's mouth calmly.

"Brother Yan is a very good man, he has saved Da Hei, and Da Hei also likes Big Brother Yan very much."

"Brother Yan looks a little cold, but he is cold and warm, and he is actually a good person."

"Brother Yan has helped me a lot, and many old customers nearby also like Brother Yan. Last time, Grandma Wang said she would help Brother Yan introduce his girlfriend."

Ye Kang had a smile on his face, but he was a little surprised. If it wasn't for the address that Su Lang told him, he would have thought that the Yan Yue in Lu Lingxi's mouth and the Yan Yue he knew were not the same person. Xu is because of the special family environment, in Ye Kang's eyes, Yan Yue's temperament is somewhat cold, with strong self-discipline and slight perfectionism. Not only is he strict with himself, but he is equally strict with those around him. Yan Yue's life is like a machine, step by step but no fun.

In Lu Lingxi's mouth, Yan Yue is a completely different person. He is full of love, he will treat a stray dog ​​on a rainy night, he will visit the injured dog every day during his lunch break, and he will help the strangers he meets with a cold heart. He likes flowers and plants, and he is soft and compassionate. To be honest, Ye Kang and Yan Yue have known each other for more than 20 years, and this is the first time I have heard that Yan Yue has these qualities.

Ye Kang looked at Lu Lingxi thoughtfully. He really believed that Yan Yue was the person he said, without the slightest doubt. He probably understood why Yan Yue was so unusual to the young man. There is an attraction in the boy, like a feeling of warmth mixed with light. He could imagine Yan Yue's first reaction when he saw the young man. People like Yan Yue who had lacked warmth since childhood and lived in that kind of chaotic family must be unable to resist this attraction and would want to approach uncontrollably.

Ye Kang was habitually analyzing in his heart, and suddenly a **** dog came in at the door. Is this supposed to be black? Ye Kang guessed. Sure enough, Lu Lingxi's eyes lit up, "Da Hei, you're back, what about Big Brother Yan?"

"Xiao Xi."

The corner of Ye Kang's mouth twitched, and it was the first time that he realized that he had no sense of existence. The Yan Yue in front of him was a little different from his memory. He took off his usual shirt and trousers, simple and refreshing T-shirt and shorts, and looked full of fresh anger. He remembered that when Yan Yue was abroad, his shirt was still straight in the 30-degree heat, and the button had to be tied to the top. It was rare to see Yan Yue wearing a T-shirt.

Ye Kang coughed slightly, "Yan Yue."

Lu Lingxi said at the same time, "Big Brother Yan is looking for you."

Yan Yue turned around unexpectedly, "Ye Kang", and then glared at Ye Kang with a warning in his eyes. Ye Kang immediately raised his hand with a smile on his face, and made a gesture that both of them knew, implying Yan Yue: Don't worry, I didn't say anything.

Yan Yue looked away with a smile, and put a stack of flower pots in his arms on the ground. The top pot is stuffed with sachets of nutrient fertilizer, seemingly to save space. He pulled back quite a few flower pots this time. Lu Lingxi wanted to come out to help, but Yan Yue stopped him and motioned to Ye Kang, "It's enough for the two of us. It's hot outside, Xiaoxi, don't go out."

Ye Kang: “…”

The two moved three times before they were all moved. Ye Kang patted the dust-covered trunk sadly, and said distressedly: "Baby, your master treats you like this, completely treating you as a truck. , do you want to change the owner?"

Yan Yue was too lazy to pay attention to Ye Kang, so he threw him a bottle of water, interrupted his performance, leaned on the car and asked casually: "Tell me, did Su Lang tell you? "

Ye Kang laughed and said narcissistically: "You know, as Professor Susan's most outstanding student, if I tried to make a cliché, Su Lang would not have noticed it at all."

Yan Yue hummed thoughtfully, and said abruptly, "How many words have you taken from Xiaoxi?"

Ye Kang smiled and said, "Enough for me to write an essay on how a pervert pretends to be deliberate and close to a pure boy."

Yan Yue: "…"

Ye Kang continued to tease, "I don't know when I have a friend who is full of love, kindness and compassion. To be honest, you know I like this car for a long time. You see you are full of kindness towards strangers, shouldn't you be more so towards me? As a good brother, should you fulfill my wishes?"

Yan Yue glanced at him blankly, Ye Kang said fearlessly: "Xiao Xi can watch it inside, keep smiling, don't destroy your image in his mind."

Yan Yue finally couldn't bear it anymore, "...Go away."

Ye Kang laughed out loud, and after laughing, said seriously: "Do you think you are more popular now?"

Yan Yue didn't care, "Am I not popular before?"

Ye Kang nodded solemnly. "In the past, you were either expressionless, or you laughed and even the curvature of the corners of your mouth seemed to be calculated in advance. That is to say, I don't despise you, you go to the circle of classmates to inquire, and who doesn't say that you live like a machine. "

Yan Yue hooked the corner of his mouth and did not speak. He looked up through the window and glanced at Lu Lingxi who was arranging potted plants with his head lowered. A touch of tenderness flashed in his eyes.

Ye Kang saw it in his eyes, put away his joking attitude, and said seriously: "Are you serious?"

Yan Yue hummed.

Ye Kangsi and Yan Yue's family, "Your parents..."

Yan Yue looked indifferent, "Since when I was six years old, they thought that I could be independent enough to live alone in the old house, then there is no need to wait for me to be twenty-seven, and they will come back to pick it up again. As a parent, I want to dictate my life."

He said mean things, Ye Kang sighed, "You can make up your own mind."

Through the window, Lu Lingxi glanced at Yan Yue who was talking to Ye Kang outside, feeling a little confused. I don't know what the two of them are talking about, Yan Yue's expression is a little cold, and his brows are slightly frowned with a hint of disgust. He rarely sees Yan Yue like this. Only when he heard Yan Yue's phone call last time in the car, it seemed that the other party mentioned Yan Yue's younger brother, that Yan Yue showed such genuine disgust. Could it be that Ye Kang also mentioned Yan Yue's younger brother just now? What did the other party do to make Yan more angry?

Micro-Gardening

Ye Kang gloated a little, "Did you find someone to push Yin Ya into Hepu? Do you know that she is competing with Yan Yue for the qualification to go abroad in a high-profile manner. The two sides have been fighting very hard recently. ."

Yan Yue's expression was slightly cold, revealing a hint of mockery. "Didn't she always want to enter Hope? I just fulfilled her."

Ye Kang shook his head, "I heard that Yan Shibo has quite a headache."

Yan Yue had no reaction to this sentence, and said lightly: "When he was calculating for Yan Hai, he should have thought that such a day would come."

Ye Kang has always been on Yan Yue's side, as if he hadn't heard Yan Yue's rebellious remarks. He drank the water in his hand in one gulp, threw the empty bottle to the trash can, and threw it into the bucket perfectly, and then asked, "What are you going to do? Stay in Fengcheng?"

Yan Yue nodded, "Anjie will be here soon, I need your help."

"What?"

Yan Yue knocked on the carriage and said solemnly, "Make the illusion that I am going abroad for recuperation."

Now Yan Hai and Yin Ya are busy fighting for power, it is estimated that no one will care about him. After a while, after Yan Shihai has dealt with Hepu's affairs, he might think of his forgotten son. If he finds Xiaoxi here, he doesn't want to involve Xiaoxi. This kind of thing is not difficult to do, and it is no problem to forge an exit document. Yan Yue asked Ye Kang to be his witness. It is estimated that no one would doubt Ye Kang's words, and he could stay in Fengcheng with peace of mind.

Ye Kang agreed, but... his eyes fell on the car behind Yan Yue.

Yan Yue glanced at him with a half-smile, took out the key and threw it to him.

"It's cheaper for you."

"I'm doing it for you too. This car is too ostentatious. I'll drive you my Volkswagen, which is about to be scrapped. It will definitely let you blend in with the crowd and be inconspicuous at all."

Yan Yue: "…"

Ye Kang spent the afternoon in micro-gardening cheekily, and in the evening shouted to invite Lu Lingxi to dinner. Lu Lingxi shut down Micro Gardening and politely declined Ye Kang's invitation. He had to go to the flowerbed to prepare the green plants that Brother Li wanted.

Yan Yue naturally wanted to go with him. Before leaving, he thought about tricking Ye Kang into getting into the car. Although he still wanted to stay overnight in the suburbs after working late like last time, considering the number of orders this time, he was reluctant that Lu Lingxi's tired mind prevailed. As a strong worker, Ye Kang can still play a role. Ye Kang didn't know what they were going to do, so he went to the flowerbed in confusion. When he regretted it, he was already in the farmland in the suburbs, and he couldn't go back if he wanted to. The three plus Uncle Li got eleven o'clock, and finally all the potted plants that Brother Li wanted were ready.

On the way back, Lu Lingxi was a little sleepy, and unknowingly hugged Da Hei and fell asleep. Yan Yue saw from the rearview mirror that he was asleep, subconsciously slowed down the speed of the car, and drove more and more steadily.

Ye Kang angrily lowered his voice and complained about the unfair treatment of Yan Yue.

Yan Yue glanced at him, "My cheap is so easy to take."

Ye Kang was speechless for a while, then changed the subject bluntly. "By the way, I said why the name Lu Lingxi is so familiar. I suddenly remembered it when I just moved the basin. You know, the Lu family in Zhongjing, their youngest grandson is called Lu Lingxi. But I heard that he passed away two months ago."

The word "death" made Yan Yue feel a little nervous. He asked casually, "The Lu Lingxi you said is not in good health?"

Ye Kang smiled sarcastically, "It's his brother Lu Wei'an who is not in good health. You have been abroad and don't know their family's situation. Lu Wei'an, you have an impression, we met when we were young, thin and small. Small and inconspicuous. Later, he got leukemia, and his mother gave birth to another child, Lu Lingxi. Doesn't leukemia require a bone marrow transplant from a matched person? It is said that Lu Lingxi was specially born to transplant bone marrow to Lu Weian. All these years The Lu family kept him at home and didn't come out to see people very often. Some time ago, I heard that Lu Weian's condition had deteriorated again, and then something happened when he had an operation. By the way, Su Lang was responsible until he resigned. Lu Weian's. I think Su Lang was also involved in this accident before he resigned."

Yan Yue was not very interested in the affairs of the Lu family in Zhongjing, but when he heard the reason for Su Lang's resignation, he suddenly thought of the tone of Su Lang when he mentioned Lu Lingxi at the door of Micro Gardening last time. frowned. He vaguely felt that Su Lang seemed to use Xiaoxi as a stand-in for that Lu Lingxi, which made him a little uncomfortable.

Xiaoxi is Xiaoxi, the unique Lu Lingxi in this world.

Ye Kang is still talking about the gossip of the Lu family, "Lu Weian, you know, the daughter of the Li family, it is said that she plans to have another child for Lu Weian. However, this news was denied by the Lu family. , I heard that Lu Wei'an's father disagreed."

Yan Yue's interest in gossip is not as high as Ye Kang's, but he just listens with a light expression, and occasionally responds in a low voice.

Neither of them noticed that Lu Lingxi woke up at some point, and held Da Hei silently all the way, without making any movement. Da Hei licked Lu Lingxi's fingers quietly, and looked at Lu Lingxi tenderly with wet eyes. Lu Lingxi clenched his hands and showed a shallow smile to Da Hei.

When Yan Yue sent Lu Lingxi home, Lu Ling rubbed his eyes in a suit and got out of the car.

"Go to bed early." Yan Yue rubbed Lu Lingxi's head.

Lu Lingxi nodded obediently.

Yan Yue was keenly aware that Lu Lingxi seemed to be in a bad mood, "Why, are you tired?"

Lu Lingxi rubbed her stomach and found a reason, "I'm hungry."

Yan Yue laughed, "Would you like to have supper with me?"

"No, Mom must have left me dinner." Lu Lingxi refused.

"Okay, go back quickly. Eat less and be careful to accumulate food."

Lu Lingxi nodded and ran back with Da Hei. He was just talking casually, but as soon as he turned on the light, he found a note on the dining table in the living room, and Wang Shuxiu had left him dinner in the refrigerator.

Lu Lingxi opened the refrigerator, took out the crisper, and smiled slightly at the ribs inside. The little entanglement that had arisen from hearing the news of the Lu family was also dissipated in the aroma of the food.

Three days later, Lu Lingxi gave the potted plants that Brother Li wanted to their unit. At the same time, there were employees of another gardening shop who came to deliver the goods. The two met at the door. Unlike Lu Lingxi and Yi Hang, who drove a small broken Jinbei, the other Micro Gardening was obviously rich, and drove a van directly.

Yi Hang slammed into Lu Lingxi enviously, "Third, do you see our goal?"

Lu Lingxi nodded, "I see, I will buy it for you after I work hard to make money."

Yihang hooked Lu Lingxi's neck with satisfaction, "The third child is interesting."

Lu Lingxi rolled her eyes and laughed.

Receiving a call from Lu Lingxi, Li Weisheng quickly rushed out. "Xiao Xi is here."

"Brother Li." Lu Lingxi greeted him politely.

Li Weisheng was about to say something when a young man jumped off the van next to him and squeezed in front of Lu Lingxi, smiling enthusiastically at Brother Li, "Brother Li."

Li Weisheng nodded, "Xiaoqiu, you are here. You have to pay attention to the potted plants this time. If the leader is not satisfied, you have to return it."

"Don't worry Li Ge, this time is absolutely fine."

The young man smiled flatteringly at Brother Li, turned his head and glared at Lu Lingxi while Brother Li was not paying attention. Don't think he doesn't know it's this kid's micro gardening that robbed them of their business. Dare to argue with them, this kid didn't go to inquire about their status in Fengcheng.

He wanted to see how good the potted plants cultivated by this micro-gardening could be. Brother Li returned all the potted plants they sent last time.
