Wenwen was shoveling dirt with his small shovel. The child was so focused that she didn't even realize that his chubby white face was stained with some dirt. Encouraged by his mother and Grandpa Guo, Wenwen regained his confidence and decided to continue growing orchids.

He thought that the problem might lay in the environment in which he planted the orchids. He shouldn't plant them in a flowerpot, but used a flowerbed instead. Maybe the orchids he raised didn't want to be a canary in the cage and yearned for the free and broad sky outside?

After many huffs and puffs, the little guy finally finished planting the seedling and applied fertilizer and water according to his mother and Grandpa Guo's guidance. After that, he watched the seedling from morning till night.

The first day, the seedling looked freshly green and very energetic. How happy!

The second day, it looked a bit listless. Um...maybe it hadn't yet adjusted to the new environment?

The third day, the leaves began to turn yellow. Wenwen was anxious. Was his orchid withering again?

On the fourth day, the orchid died.

...

Wenwen squatted in the corner, sinking into a deep entanglement. His chubby little face was dark with a heavy expression. He contemplated hard. Why hadn't he realized that he had such a peculiar trait in his previous life? Was it because he was busy trying to survive and never had time to raise flowers, so he had never found it?

But this was so strange. His mother had become a professionally acknowledged and outstanding orchid artist in just two or three years. Even Grandpa Guo was very satisfied with his mother. Grandpa Guo once boasted to him that Mom was the most talented student he had ever seen.

Could it be that he inherited her genetic talent in the opposite way?

Fu Yunruo looked at the child who had been hit hard. Even she felt speechless for a while and couldn't figure out any comforting words. In order to successfully let Wenwen raised his orchid without dying, she and Uncle Guo watched from the side and carefully guided him. Logically speaking, as long as the child didn't treat the plant too roughly, it would grow safely.

But the flower actually withered?

Could it be true that some people are just naturally incompatible with plants?

Among the fans who followed her livestream channel, a small group of people seemed to have such a peculiarity. They said that no matter what they did, they had never been able to grow any plant safely. Fu Yunruo thought it was an exaggeration before, but now she began to have a doubt. Maybe, some people were really born with a disposition of plant killer?

Finally, Fu Yunruo said: "Baobao, we are going back to the village this afternoon."

Hearing this, Wenwen stood up and rushed over to his mother with his short legs: "Going back today? Not tomorrow?"

Fu Yunruo patted his little head, "Let's go back today. Don't you also miss your little friends so much?"

"No!" Wenwen shook his head and said solemnly: "Just miss a bit."

"Go and say goodbye to Grandpa. We won't see him for two days. Go and spend time with him."

"Okay!" Wenwen hopped to the flower shed.

Fu Yunruo watched as Wenwen's lively and cheerful figure departed. Now that his thoughts were distracted, the child instantly forgot about his ill-fated little orchids.

Fu Yunruo fell into contemplation. Wenwen loved to play with other children, and he had friends of various ages. Should she let him go to kindergarten? Before, she felt that three years old was still too young and considered enrolling him next year. Now thinking about it, she could send Wenwen to kindergarten in September this year. She wondered what documents would be needed to enroll a child in kindergarten. Did it require a household register? Her Wenwen hadn't registered one yet.
