Xu Boan's landscape bonsai was bought more than three months ago on the day he and Qi Xiaoxue divorced.
Xu Bo'an remembered clearly that after he chose to pay, he just returned to the company and sat for a while, when his own express delivery was delivered to the mailroom of Dongjiang No. 2 Building. Xu Bo'an was still surprised at that time. This was much earlier than the store said.
That day, after receiving the divorce certificate, Xu Boan wandered aimlessly on the street.
Passing by a flower and bird market nearby, I subconsciously followed the crowd and walked in.
Although the flower and bird market in Dongjiang City is called a market, it actually refers to a street in general.
In the early days, this street was most famous for its flower and bird business.
Later, it evolved into a comprehensive commercial street covering various specialty shops such as flowers and birds, cats and dogs, fish and turtles, and strange stones.
In addition to fixed shops, there are even many mobile stalls that set up street stalls all year round.
Every morning and evening, there are also special breakfast stalls and dinner stalls, which are very lively.
This flower and bird market is not only famous in Dongjiang, but also has a good reputation in several surrounding cities. Many fellow enthusiasts from surrounding cities often come here to visit, buy and sell, learn and exchange. The passenger flow is really spectacular.
That day, when Xu Bo'an, who had just divorced, entered the flower and bird market, he subconsciously walked in with the crowd heading there.
Nothing magical happened. I just went shopping normally. I wandered aimlessly and walked into a shop selling bonsai. I saw this landscape bonsai that was quite interesting. I thought it would make me happy a little bit, so I bought it. .
During this period, there were no visions from the sky, no encounters with an old man selling secret books and treasures, and no plots involving bravery, bloodshed, and activation of jade pendant antiques to gain supreme inheritance.
It’s normal, you go shopping, like something, and then buy it.
Very ordinary, unremarkable.
It's just a normal day in life.
He also didn't expect that from then on, the gears of fate would suddenly start to turn slightly.
Xu Bo'an retracted his thoughts and decided to go to the bonsai shop that day in person as soon as possible.
After all, if this matter is not handled properly, Xu Boan will always feel as if he is being scratched by a cat, and he is really uneasy. He really wanted to figure out the cause and effect of this matter.
As for his helpless absence from his relatives' wedding, Xu Bo'an didn't say any more nonsense. A red envelope worth 20,000 yuan settled all his psychological guilt.
Besides, my cousin's family also inherited such a huge favor from Xu Bo'an. He also found connections to book a luxury hotel, and spent a lot of money out of his own pocket to give out red envelopes to newcomers.
At the scene, after hearing that Xu Boan did not attend his cousin's wedding, no one stood up to find fault. Some were just envious of others.
Those long-mouthed idlers among the seven aunts and eight aunts who used to like to stand on the commanding heights of morality and "hold themselves to the standards of a rotten person, but hold others to the standards of a saint" have also shut up.
Even if someone spoke, they would say things like, "The big boss is busy with work and time is tight" and "It would be nice if someone could come over and take a look."
Ultimately, when you are successful enough, the people around you will be unimaginably tolerant of you. When you accomplish nothing, you will find that your occasional mistakes will be infinitely magnified.
To put it more bluntly, such a generous relative gave too much, and I really can’t complain! You can't just pick on someone else's red envelope, right?
Soon, Xu Boan drove to the flower and bird market.
Relying on the route in his memory, after walking for a while, Xu Boyan saw the shop where he bought the bonsai that day.
Yiye Zhai.
Seeing the name of the store, Xu Boan nodded thoughtfully.
Okay, I didn't pay attention to this name at all before, but now it seems that it has some artistic conception.
One flower, one world, one leaf, one Bodhi.
I don’t know if that’s what the name means.
When I came to the bonsai shop again, everything was still the same as before.
As soon as you enter the door, you are faced with rows of neatly trimmed green bonsais. They are full of greenery. They can not only be used as bonsais for viewing, but can also be used as potted flowers and trees. The sight of them makes people feel happy.
Further inside, there are these artistic landscape bonsais bought by Xu Boan, including mountain and forest landscapes combining mountains and rivers, garden landscapes with small bridges and flowing water, rural landscapes with stone benches in small courtyards, and retro landscapes with antique buildings. , giving people more room for wireless reverie.
Some exquisite bonsai pictures and introductions are hung on the walls of the store, describing the types and artistic conceptions of bonsai, allowing people to have a deeper understanding of different bonsais.
There are some small gadgets on the shelf beside them. They are small models. When put together into a bonsai, the bonsai can derive new artistic conceptions and stories.
As a whole, the store is decorated in a warm style, making people feel like they are in a small natural world.
The business in the store was pretty good, but the store owner who was busy decorating the bonsai obviously didn't recognize Xu Bo'an anymore. When he saw Xu Bo'an coming in, he ignored him and continued his work.
But this is normal. People receive dozens or hundreds of guests a day. How can they just remember the appearance of the guests from three months ago? He doesn't have any special appearance.
However, a shop assistant came up and said hello with a smile: "Hello, sir, welcome to your visit. Let's see what style of bonsai you need."
Xu Bo'an waved his hand and pointed at the boss. Xu Bo'an remembered clearly that it was the boss who received him personally that day, and it was also the boss who called him just now to urge him.
The clerk just regarded him as the boss's friend, said nothing more, and left with a smile.
Now that everyone is here, Xu Boan is no longer in such a hurry. Waiting for the shop owner to finish trimming a bonsai and taking a break, he said with a smile: "Boss, the name of your shop is well chosen, Yiye Zhai. If I guessed it correctly, it is taken from the Buddhist name Yihua." One world, one leaf, one bodhi."
The owner of the store is a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses. His belly is slightly swollen. Even if his face is expressionless, he is still smiling. He has a naturally cheerful appearance. A string of large dark wooden beads on his hand is very conspicuous. .
Hearing Xu Boan's words, the store owner was obviously stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said: "You think highly of me, this store is named after me. Hello, I am the owner of this store, Song Zhiqiu."
Xu Bo'an was quite surprised. He thought the store owner had a feminine name like "Yi Ye". After hearing what the other party said, he smiled and said: "One leaf knows autumn. Elegance, elegance! Hello, I am Xu Bo'an. Did you mention it earlier? You called me to pick up the goods.”
Song Zhiqiu patted his head and said, "Yes, yes, yes, Boss Xu, please come this way."
Song Zhiqiu was about to lead the way when he spoke, but suddenly paused and said apologetically: "Sorry, wait a moment, an ant ran in here, I have to deal with it quickly, otherwise it won't ruin the scenery I just set up! "
Xu Bo'an looked around and saw an ant running rampant in the farm field in a pastoral-style bonsai next to it. The grass that had just been laid was also torn down everywhere, leaving ugly traces.
The little human model about one centimeter high on the ridge next to it looked even smaller and powerless in front of the ants.
When Xu Boan saw this, he was suddenly shocked.
I wonder, is there a possibility that things like ants and insects may accidentally run into my bonsai world?
Xu Bo'an was immediately frightened by this sudden idea.
I was so happy to see many book friends who came all the way to speak and vote for rewards. Happy New Year to everyone.
