Chapter 25 The twenty-fourth missing flower pot

There is a small township health center in the town where Jie Chen lives. There are not many doctors in it. There are only four of them. The doctor Jie Chen is most familiar with is a doctor named Sha. Dr. Sha is very studious, Jie Chen often sees him studying with large medical books.It’s just that Dr. Sha said that for practitioners, simply learning book knowledge is not enough, and experience and practice are also very important. Unfortunately, the health centers in small towns are too small to quickly accumulate work experience. But last year, Dr. Sha got an opportunity to do an internship in a big city hospital for one year.Hearing this news, quitting anger also felt that it was a great thing, and I was very happy for Dr. Sha.Jie Chen felt that Dr. Yi Sha's eagerness to learn would definitely improve by leaps and bounds within a year.

When Dr. Sha left, he came to Tianming Temple, holding a pot of roses in his arms.Dr. Sha said that he had been away for too long this time, and there was nothing worth thinking about at home. Only this potted flower was given by a former friend. Stop being angry. When he took over the potted flowers from Dr. Sha, Jie An was both apprehensive and slightly touched, because Jie An also knew that his reputation in the field of flower cultivation was not very good. He had many pots that were recognized as extremely easy to feed The flowers and plants all died in Jie Chen's hands.Many people in the town knew about these things after the dissemination by the juniors, but Dr. Sha still solemnly entrusted this pot of commemorative flowers to Jie Chen under such circumstances. How could Jie Chen not be moved? Woolen cloth?

Later, Dr. Sha’s colleague, Dr. Wu, told Jie’an that Dr. Sha was hesitant at the time. He just considered that the flower would surely die if no one took care of it. In the end, Dr. Sha chose to entrust Hua to Jie Chen. For Dr. Sha's flower, Junior Brother Jie Ao suggested to put it on the flower stand outside.The younger brother said that roses like sunshine, but they should not be exposed to the sun. The flower stand is leaning against the wall of the front yard, and the upper floor is covered. The sun is not lacking or too much. Facts have proved that the words of quitting arrogance are quite reasonable. In the next few months, the pot of roses grew gratifyingly, and finally a red flower bloomed.

I don't know if it's because of the variety, but Dr. Sha's Chinese rose blooms very beautifully, with bright red petals without variegated colors, and the blooming appearance exudes a sense of joy. Jie Chen had raised roses before, but the flowers that bloomed were a bit smaller than this flower, and the color was not as pure as this flower. Although the potted flower was placed in the corner, it was quite eye-catching.Once, even Junior Jie Chi, who had no interest in flowers and plants, stopped in front of the flowers and admired them for a long time.Brother Jie Chi knew that flowers were raised by Jie Chen, he couldn't help sighing and said: "What is it really, if you worry about it, you will definitely gain something!"

Another two days later, when Jie Chen went to water the pot, he suddenly found that the flowers were gone. He looked carefully at the flower shelf, and there was nothing unusual around, except that this potted flower was missing.Jie Chen searched the front and back yards, but there was no trace of the flowers.Jie Chen was a little anxious at the time. Although it was just an ordinary flower and not a valuable item, it was fostered by a friend after all.Even though he just disappeared and Dr. Sha wouldn't say anything, Jiechen always felt embarrassed. But soon, Jie Chen found the potted flower, and it was placed in a very conspicuous place in the door of the Buddhist hall.

Although I don't know who moved the flowers here, Jie Chen feels that the benefactor who moved the flowers may not know as much about flowers and plants as Jie Chen, otherwise, how could he move the rose flowers to such a place that lacks sunlight? Woolen cloth? Jiechen took another effort to move the flowers back to the flower stand, but after two days, the flowers mysteriously disappeared again.This time I gained experience in refraining from anger, so I ran directly into the Buddhist hall, and without accident, the potted flower was quietly placed in the old place. When the rose disappeared for the first time, Jie Chen thought that the person who moved the flowers must be a certain pilgrim, who may have moved there casually. When the same thing happened the second time, Jie Chen felt that someone must have done it intentionally.

That afternoon, Jie An saw Junior Brother Jie Chi coming over to water the roses with a water cup, and asked him, it turned out that the person who moved the flowers these two times was actually Junior Brother Jie Chi.Brother Jie Chi also said, since the flowers bloom so beautifully, why should they be placed in the corner outside? Naturally, they should be placed in a place where people come and go, so that all the donors can enjoy them. Hearing what Junior Brother Jie Chi said, Jie An felt that what he said was reasonable, but it seemed that Jie An's behavior of putting the potted flower on the shelf outside was not wrong.

In my opinion, in fact, when it comes to arranging rose flowers, whether to put them on a shelf to bask in the sun or put them in a Buddhist hall for appreciation are two incompatible ways of handling them, but obviously they have their own reasons. In fact, many things will face similar problems.Sometimes we cling to our point of view, thinking that what we insist on is the only truth, but in fact, when we look at something from different angles and positions, we will find many different correct answers. In fact, many conflicts arise not because of who is right or who is wrong. We are often annoyed because we are too obsessed with our own "right views", but we cannot tolerate other people's "right views".

We often imagine a boundary between right and wrong, and it is this boundary that does not exist most of the time, which makes it difficult for us to understand others while affirming ourselves.
