Putting on a hat and gloves, boots and sun protection shirt, and when everything was ready, she pushed open the door in front of her.The wooden door makes a slight noise as it turns, just like the sound effect of the first appearance.Outside this door is a small backyard, which has actually been converted into a place for vegetables, fruits, and flowers, and is more appropriately called a 'plantation', as opposed to a nearby courtyard for rest and play.Although it is located behind the building, it is blessed with the sun's rays around 10 o'clock in the morning, so the sun is abundant and the soil is just the right amount of moisture, so there is no need to worry about the land being too dry.Stepping on the ground, she first confirmed what she was going to do today.The first step was to weed the plantation in front of me, but since it was impossible to use a weeder in such a place, and the chemicals were not suitable, we came to the conclusion that we would 'pull the weeds by hand'.The second is to prune the overgrown plants, only in this way can we ensure that its nutrients can be more transmitted to the fruit, so as to ensure the quality of the fruit and the quality of the vegetables.But at this time, from the other side......
In the passage that connected to the courtyard, a butler named Richardson stepped out with a plate.The butler, who was over half a hundred years old, reminded her again after seeing her actions."
Miss Shimazaki, you don't need to take care of this place, just leave it to us, anyway, everyone is on standby; If it was in the past, because of Mr.
Gu Wu's social work, everyone had to be prepared to 'make food and serve customers', but now it's different......"
"It's okay, Mr.
Richardson doesn't have to worry too much, in fact, I like this kind of work a lot, it's better to say it's a way to 'relax'." ”"Weeding and pruning, as well as fertilising and inspection, I don't think it's easy."
The order Richardson got from Gu Wu was to take care of these residents, so naturally he couldn't be lazy.However, even in this case, the girl named Shimazaki Akina has made her own choice, that is, to complete these chores by herself."
If there is such a time, I think Miss Shimazaki can choose to take a break, I heard that this is because of the holiday, so the school will not be in class.""
It's not a holiday, it's because of the regular inspection of the school; After all, the house is not a permanent item, and there will be a check for potential safety hazards every once in a while, so I think I will probably be able to go to class tomorrow. ”"Regular check-ups?
I thought it would be a week to ......"
"Another reason for this was that there had been a typhoon landfall before, and some floors had collapsed due to that typhoon, so they had a lot of time ahead of schedule after the plan was finalized. ”"That's right......
My granddaughter said it was because of the festival, and last night she was clamoring for me to take her to the stargazing platform. ”Shimazaki instantly confirmed the tool and said, "What about the child's lie~ I think she wants Mr.
Richardson to take a break, right?"
Otherwise, I wouldn't have invited you out to play. ”"That little girl is very clever, and at the same time a sharp child; But......
Although my old bones are not as strong as they used to be, there is no problem in completing the work here, thanks to Miss Shimazaki for her concern. ”"I just want to thank Mr.
Richardson for all his continued help."
Shimazaki, who said this, walked up to Richardson in an instant."
Leave these drinks to me, and Mr.
Richardson can go about his business and worry about me.""
The temperature has risen these days, and it's not good to have heat stroke, there are cold drinks, sports drinks and heat stroke medicines, just in case, please keep them around.""
I'll take notice."
In fact, Richardson was not joking, there was a person who suffered from heat stroke among the residents, that is, a girl named Chino, so Yuri was accompanying her, and I don't know how long it would take to get better.After handing over the things to Shimazaki instantly, Richardson also knew that he couldn't help, so he said goodbye and left, to deal with some work that could be done without Gu Wu's authorization, so as to reduce Gu Wu's workload when he returned here.Seeing Richardson leave, Shimazaki took a sip of a sports drink, then did a preparatory exercise before weeding, and only started this morning's work after warming up.It was about 10:20 a.m., and the slanting sunlight was spreading on the plantation in front of me, making it look dazzling.Its structure is simple, the outer layer is a flower bed, and there are different types, but they are all varieties that can adapt to the soil; Inside, there is a fruit tree planted, because it is not from scratch, so the fruit tree has already seen the prototype of the fruit; Finally, surrounded by flowers and fruit trees, the central area is a vegetable planting area with many scaffolds, and only a few spinach, lettuce and radishes are planted so far, and other species are yet to be considered.Armed with a weeding tool, Shimazaki is moving into the heart of the plantation, intending to pull out the weeds from the inside out.Passing through the flower beds and trees, Shimazaki arrived at the vegetable planting area, and immediately saw weeds growing everywhere, and some even began to invade the vegetable territory and occupy it.I have to say that weeds grow very fast, and much faster than expected, but the reason for this is not clear."
Let's start......
Shimazaki crouched down in an instant, digging up the dirt with a razor without a razor, making sure he could pull out the weeds before working with both hands.The rhizomes of the weeds went deep into the ground, and Shimazaki sat down on the ground with a lot of force, but the soil was soft enough that it didn't cause pain."
It's going to be tricky......
Actually, Shimazaki hasn't done it a few times, and most of the techniques she learned on the Internet are different from what she imagined.In addition, in the past, when weeding was carried out, it was only for grass blades, and the root of the grass was not used to eradicate the impact of weeds.Shimazaki didn't think much about it, and then continued to pull the next weed, but as soon as she picked up the shovel knife, the footsteps of Suso were heard behind her.Is it because the other party didn't say hello because there was another purpose?
Crash!!
Two figures burst out of the woods in the middle layer.Seeing the two of them, Shimazaki, who showed a puzzled expression, immediately asked, "Why are you here?"
”"We're here to help!!"
The one who answered this was Louise, and next to her was Tina.Then Tina looked at Shimazaki and added, "I want to discuss it too......
Give Gu Wu a surprise plan when the time comes......"
