Manor Romance

Chapter 93 Old Friends

Early this morning, Brother Chen came to the manor, happily prepared a lot of daily necessities, and put them all in the new office building. He waited at the intersection before lunch, as if he was waiting for some important person to arrive.

The construction of the small archway has also come to an end. The entire circular archway has been erected. In order to take care of the entry and exit of large vehicles in the future, the arc has been made very large. It stands on the lime road like a rainbow, which looks magnificent. And elegant.

After lunch, the person he was waiting for still didn't come, but he was very patient. He walked around when he was tired, and went to the office building to rest when he was tired. Everyone was very curious. What is the background of a person makes him pay so much attention to it. In his impression, apart from Xu Lin and his family, Brother Chen seems to have no relatives.

Finally, before sunset, a taxi came slowly from a distance, Brother Chen also showed a knowing smile, and Yun Li also came to the archway to welcome this time's visitors together with Brother Chen.

After the taxi stopped, three people got out of the car, an elderly couple and a young woman. Seeing the young couple getting off, Brother Chen stepped forward quickly, hugged each of the elderly couple, and then smiled Said: "Looking forward to the stars and looking forward to the moon, I finally look forward to the two of you. The journey will be smooth, right?"

The couple are about the same age as Brother Chen, both in their early [-]s. The man is of medium build, slightly overweight, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and has the temperament of an old scholar, while his wife is well maintained. She looks younger than her actual age, her skin is very fair, and she can tell that she has lived a good life at a glance. She must have been a great beauty when she was young.

The man smiled heartily, and said: "Don't talk about it, I would have come by plane if I knew it earlier. It's approaching the end of the year. Whether it's a high-speed rail or a train, there are not many people in general. If you want to know what a crowd is, once you go there, you will be deeply impressed." gone."

"You're still flying, when did your fear of flying get better?" the female companion said unceremoniously, but there was a trace of concern in her reproachful tone.

"Haha, I can't blame Lao Sun for this matter. The main reason is that those stewardess girls can't catch Lao Sun's eyes. It's different on the train. The last time I took that trip, I met a very good one. I even took pictures with her." I took a photo, I'll show it to you later." Brother Chen joked, he was rarely seen so active, like an old urchin.

"This should be the young man named Yunli. He is really a good-looking talent. This time, I will disturb you for a while. Our husband and wife have been friends with Lao Chen for many years. When we were young, we went to the countryside to be educated youths, and we were not unaffected by him." Take care, just call me Sun Qingze, this is my wife Tan Yue." After reminiscing about the past, Lao Sun took the initiative to shake Yunli's hand and introduced him enthusiastically.

"Mr. Sun, Mrs. Sun, Old Brother Chen is my good teacher and helpful friend. Since we are all friends, don't say such polite words. It's cold outside. Let's go into the house and rest for a while. The place is ready." Yun Li smiled Said.

"Have a rest, don't you see that the soul of the old grandson is not here, hurry up and take him to see that precious tea tree, otherwise his neck will be longer than the ducks in the pond." Brother Chen He ordered straightforwardly, and Lao Sun nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, agreeing with Brother Chen's suggestion very much, seeing Madam Sun was very angry and funny.

"Hey, you guys forgot about me, do you want this pile of luggage?" Just when everyone was about to take a step, there was a delicate and sweet voice from the taxi, it was from the same person It was my young lady who came.After getting out of the car just now, she went to the trunk of the car to carry her luggage. Because she was not tall, the back cover of the trunk was turned up, covering her whole body. Everyone chatted enthusiastically, and they almost forgot about her.

"Old man Sun, how can you leave our Miss Sun behind? Hurry up and carry your luggage. Meimei is here, grandma will introduce you. This is Uncle Chen who came back to our house last time as a guest. At that time You are not here, I haven’t seen you, this young man is called Yunli, he is the owner of this manor, this is our precious granddaughter, named Sun Mei, Mei Mei of Rose, let’s get to know each other.” Mrs. Sun Tan Yue ordered her wife to move Luggage, while introducing each other to everyone.

Sun Mei is not tall, but she has an exquisite figure, which can be seen even in thick clothes, and her appearance has inherited her grandmother's advantages, fair skin, regular and exquisite features, she is a beauty selected in a hundred, judging by her age It looks a little smaller than Yunli, but I don't know if it's because of the long journey, she doesn't seem to be energetic and interested.

After they got to know each other, Yunli and Brother Chen went to help carry the luggage, while Sun Mei held Mrs. Sun's arm and was talking about something in detail, looking around with a pair of phoenix eyes, and was also a little curious about the unfamiliar environment.

Their luggage is not ordinary, three travel bags plus a large push box, and a large rectangular wooden box half the height of an adult, which is quite thick and tightly sealed. When moving, the three of them were very careful. Everyone knows what's in it, so they pay so much attention to it.

In the end, Yunli was holding the big wooden box, while Old Brother Chen and Sun Qingze shared the luggage. Everyone first entered the office building and put the luggage in the lobby, and then Yunli led them to the bamboo building, and went straight up to the third floor. And the big wooden box, he also brought it up.

Before entering the building, Sun Qingze seemed to smell the smell of the Dahongpao tea tree, and entered the small hall ahead of everyone else. Seeing the lush green tea tree in the center of the hall, he danced with excitement, looked left and right around the tea tree, from time to time I also put my nose into the leaves and sniffed the unique smell of this thousand-year-old tree.

"Look at you, you're not afraid of being laughed at, Meimei, go and wipe your grandfather's drool, and don't let him dirty this small bamboo building." Seeing his wife's appearance, Mrs. Sun was actually happy for him, but she didn't say anything. Just express it.

Brother Chen also joked: "That's right, you look like a giraffe. Although our manor also raises a lot of small animals, this is not a zoo, haha."

Brother Chen's words amused Mrs. Sun and Sun Mei, and he himself laughed triumphantly, but Yun Li's next words made him unable to laugh: "You are still joking, when you saw In this scene, I remember a human-shaped koala sitting on the ground and holding the tall wooden basin containing the nutrient solution, and he refused to let go no matter how hard he pulled it, do you still remember?"

As soon as these words came out, Madam Sun and Sun Mei laughed even louder. Even Sun Qingze understood, and kept laughing while covering his waist and belly, which made Old Brother Chen very embarrassed, blushing, and immediately changed the subject: "Hey, I said it at the beginning, give the tea tree to me, and I promise to make it rejuvenate for a second time. You have nothing to say this time."

Sun Qingze stopped smiling, and said seriously: "This time, I really don't know what to say. So many experts have seen it before, but they are at a loss. Who knows that this year will not come, and you will revive the tea tree. I this…"

"Hey, what is the relationship between us, I don't need to mention these kind words, but if you want to thank, you really have to thank this kid Yunli. He has spent a lot of effort on it this year." Brother Chen waved He waved his hand, pointed at Yunli and said.

Before Sun Qingze could speak, Yun Li said, "I said we are friends, so I don't need to repeat these kind words. It's just that the condition of the tea tree hasn't stabilized yet, and we have to observe it for a while before we can judge whether it's true or not." Fully recovered."

This Sun Qingze is the owner of the thousand-year-old Dahongpao tea tree. During the Chinese New Year last year, Old Brother Chen visited his house and brought the tea tree back to Yunli for treatment. In fact, he has been paying attention to the treatment of the tea tree through Old Brother Chen. During the period, I wanted to visit several times, but I couldn't make it. This time, I finally got what I wanted, and the condition of the tea tree is better than what Brother Chen described. How could this not make him happy? Crazy.

As they said, when they were young, Sun Qingze and Tan Yue went to the countryside to jump in the queue and met Brother Chen. Although they returned to the city after that, they still kept in touch with each other, and their relationship did not diminish at all. It was a full 40 years of friendship.Sun Qingze is engaged in the construction industry. He has worked hard for most of his life, and he has made some achievements. There is a company with good performance, and now his son and daughter-in-law are taking care of it, so he doesn't have to worry about it.

Sun Qingze's greatest hobby in his life is tea tasting. He not only loves to drink tea, but also has a fanatical interest in planting potted tea trees. The small courtyard at home is filled with various potted tea trees. , became his greatest pleasure after retirement.

This thousand-year-old Dahongpao tea tree is his most precious collection. Sun Qingze spent a lot of money and effort to obtain it at the beginning, and even more so after that, he provided it with the best growing environment, but it didn't take much In [-], the tea tree had various problems, such as dry branches and leaves, moth-eaten trunks, moldy roots, etc. I tried many methods from experts, but nothing improved. I can only watch it slowly wither and yellow.

It wasn't until Brother Chen visited last year and after learning about the situation, he asked him to bring the tea tree back to the southwest, saying that he knew a strange person who might have a way to save the tea tree, so he might as well give it a try.

At first, Sun Qingze refused. None of the experts he invited were well-known, and even they were helpless, let alone in the remote areas of the Southwest. But Brother Chen was never a braggart, and since he offered to help, he said Maybe there is a way.After struggling for a long time, he finally agreed. He didn't expect that this decision at the beginning would be such a big surprise now.

"Brother Yunli is an expert. Of course I have to listen to you. Can you tell me why the tea tree has problems?" So many experts are not as good as this young man in front of him. His words Sun Qingze naturally obeyed, and curiously asked about the situation.
