Chapter 9 I Don't Understand Orchids

Chapter 9 I don’t understand orchids

Zhang Cundao came to the girl and asked politely: "Classmate, do you know where Professor Wen lives?"

The girl was disturbed by Zhang Cundao. She looked up at Zhang Cundao and asked impatiently: "Who are you and why are you looking for Professor Wen?"

Zhang Cundao said quickly: "I am a student of Professor Wen, and I asked him for advice on some academic questions."

When the girl heard this, she immediately said: "He is not at home. You don't have to look for him. You can go to his office to find him on Monday." After saying that, she ignored Zhang Cundao and looked at the orchids in front of her again.

Zhang Cundao was not angry when he ate a soft nail. Instead, he looked at the orchid and said, "Is this orchid true?"

After he asked, the girl didn't even raise her head or pay any attention to him.

Zhang Cundao released a little Qingmu Qi, then paused and continued: "If you raise an orchid like this, it will grow to death. This orchid needs to be exposed to the sun!"

Hearing Zhang Cundao's words, the girl finally couldn't help it anymore. She said, "Do you understand? Orchids like shade and will die if they get too much sun!"

It is true that Zhang Cundao does not understand orchids. He is such an old man. How can he understand these things? But the orchid in front of him is indeed dying because of the lack of sunlight.

This is what Orchid told him! He didn't lie.

So he continued: "Other orchids do like shade, but this is the leek. The leek is one of the few orchids that needs a lot of light."

Hearing this, the girl's eyes widened. She pointed to her orchid and said, "What are you talking about? This is obviously a cymbidium orchid, but what is a leek orchid?"

"Ah!" Zhang Cundao was stunned for a moment, then pretended to continue looking at the orchid, scratched his head and said: "That shouldn't be the case, it said it was from leek..." His words became quieter and quieter. And the girl looked at his

His eyes are getting weirder and weirder.

There must be something wrong with this person.

Then the next moment, Zhang Cundao said: "You said it is Cymbidium orchid? You must be wrong. The roots of Cymbidium orchid are thin and brown, while the roots of leek orchid are white and thicker.

.The leaves of leek orchid and cymbidium orchid look very similar. I guess the profiteers deceived you."

As he spoke, Zhang Cundao gently opened the roots of the orchid. Under the cover of the floating soil, there were several white rhizomes. At this time, even the leaves of the orchid trembled slightly, seeming to agree with Zhang Cundao's words.

This is what the orchid in front of him told Zhang Cundao! Qingmu Qi can communicate with plants and trees. Although plants and trees are not very intelligent, they can also introduce themselves clearly. When this orchid was still in the hands of profiteers, it had been 'seen' by profiteers many times.

They are sold as Cymbidium orchids.

Cymbidium orchid is rare in number and is a very rare orchid species, while leek orchid is just like its name, there are as many as leeks on the roadside!

This girl was swayed by Zhang Cundao's well-founded words, and Zhang Cundao not only spoke empty words, but also provided evidence. She was just a newbie who had just entered the trap, and she was immediately convinced by these words.

.

Then Zhang Cundao continued: "The roots of leek orchids are also very thin when they are seedlings, so it is really difficult to distinguish them from Cymbidium orchids when they are young. Moreover, some profiteers will use special potions to wash the roots into grayish brown, which makes it even more difficult.

It’s hard to tell the difference. Some experienced connoisseurs often look at you, so the merchant must have deceived you because he saw that you are honest and easy to deceive.”

When Zhang Cundao said this, the girl nodded quickly and said: "Yes, yes! That's it! It must be a profiteer who bullied me into being honest!" She would not admit that she was deceived by pretending to understand!

Zhang Cundao also smiled and said, "That's right. The girl is the kind of person who is kind and easy to talk to." Such nice words made the girl feel embarrassed.

She blushed slightly, then stretched out her hand openly and said: "My name is Wen Xi, and I am Professor Wen's granddaughter. Professor Wen is indeed not at home. He went to visit a friend. I don't know what you want to see him for.

"

Isn't this a coincidence? Zhang Cundao stretched out his hand to shake her hand and said, "Hello, classmate Wen, my name is Zhang Cundao. I'm looking for him because I have an ancient article and I want to ask him for advice."

When Wen Xi heard this, she also smiled and said, "If it's ancient Chinese, I might be able to help. I'm a student in the Literature Department of Zijin University."

Hearing this, Zhang Cundao naturally understood what she meant. After hesitating, he took out the "Demon Transformation Sutra" and said: "This is an ancient sutra that I got by chance. It's just too obscure and difficult to understand, so..."

The girl smiled slightly and said: "It's like this. For people who don't often come into contact with ancient prose, it is indeed very difficult to read ancient prose." What she said obviously meant that she often came into contact with ancient prose. She was also qualified to say this because her grandfather

She is a great figure in the world of ancient literature. She grew up in the ocean of ancient literature, and the milk she drank since she was a child has the flavor of ancient literature!

She took the paper handed over by Zhang Cundao and looked at it, and then her brows slowly wrinkled. She looked at the scripture and then at Zhang Cundao. This scripture is really difficult!

Seeing Wen Xi fall into silence, Zhang Cundao asked carefully: "What? Is it difficult? Do you want to wait for the professor to come back..."

Before he finished speaking, the girl said: "Easy is definitely not that easy. I need to check some literature. You can hold the flower pot for me and let's go home."

Zhang Cundao responded quickly and picked up the orchid in front of her. Then the two of them went upstairs one after another.

She opened the door, and a woman came over with a handful of leeks and said, "Xixi, you're back..." Before she could finish her words, she saw a tall boy following Wen Xi, and this boy

And holding her precious granddaughter’s baby Orchid!

For a moment, both of them were stunned. Zhang Cundao quickly greeted him and said, "Hello, aunt."

Wen Xi, who was thinking about the scriptures, heard this and subconsciously said: "What do you call aunt? Call me grandma!"

When Zhang Cundao heard this, he realized that this was Wen Xi's grandmother, and he immediately bowed and said, "Hello, grandma!"

After he finished speaking, Wen Xi took him into his grandfather's study. Grandma Wen Xi, who was watching all this, was so shocked that the leeks in her hand spilled all over the floor!

"My Xixi actually brought a boy home! She even called me grandma!" Grandma Wen was startled and didn't care to pick up the leeks on the ground. Instead, she walked to the phone and started calling her home.

old man!

On the other side, in Professor Wen's study room, Wen Xi was immediately buried in the sea of ​​books. Zhang Cundao looked around, came to the window sill, put the orchid in his hand on the window sill to bask in the sun, and then said: "This leek

Orchids like sunshine but don't like humidity. The soil does not need to be kept moist. A semi-dry state is best." After saying that, he gave the orchid a little Qingmu Qi to nourish it.

When Wen Xi heard this, she suddenly raised her head from the pile of books, and then saw Zhang Cundao playing with her orchids in the sun. The orchids seemed to become more energetic under his fiddle. She couldn't help but ask: "You

Do you know much about orchids?”

Zhang Cundao was stunned, smiled and said: "No, I don't understand orchids!"
