Chapter 413: Canna

The two of them looked at each other, Kang Mingyang was standing in front of the door, staring at the results of the three people's busy work for a long time, the waxed wooden floor that could illuminate the human figure, the light brown leather sofa, the same color and light green cushions, and a large chandelier in the center......

The windows are bright and clean.

Last Valentine's Day, the day Shang Luoyu proposed, there were people everywhere, and the floor was full of footprints.

So Kang Mingyang immediately lowered his head to look at his leather shoes - he has always disliked to go to people's homes to change shoes, he is informal, but he can't get into it at this time!

Huang Yixi shook her head wordlessly, if she hadn't just lost the wax and stepped on it, she didn't like people to come to the house to change shoes, open the shoe cabinet, "The top three rows are for my family, and the bottom is all for guests, new, you can choose it yourself, there are also disposable slippers, but I have just waxed, I am afraid that it will be easy to slip, and I want shoe covers, which are on the bottom left." ”

Kang Mingyang moved the things to the door one by one, didn't change his shoes, and directly covered them with shoe covers, and asked Huang Yixi after changing: "Where are these put?"

"What did you bring with you?"

Huang Yixi was a little surprised, it is rare for those who are willing to come to the door now, and it is generally not a relationship that can make people come to the door, how can Kang Mingyang still bring things.

"It is to bring two pots of flowers to make up for the joy of the last housewarming, as well as these loquats, which are from Longhaizhou and sent by customers. ”

"Why didn't you leave the loquat with Li Min?"

Huang Yixi asked puzzled.

Everyone who is polite knows that Kang Mingyang is interesting to Li Min, and everyone is quite optimistic, even after Lin Shufang asked, he felt that Li Min was no more suitable than Kang Mingyang even if he looked for it with a lantern in broad daylight.

Kang Mingyang is 2 years younger than Li Min, he is from Gusu, but he also bought a house in Baishui Prefecture, his parents are retired from official business in Gusu, and he has two houses in Gusu, and the family situation is simple and does not have to be burdened.

The important thing is that Kang Mingyang is a diligent person, has no vices, does not smoke or gamble, and is not very drunk.

I heard that Secretary Kang was very close to him, but everyone didn't care about this.

"I bring a lot of them, on both sides. ”

Kang Mingyang carefully put down the box on the coffee table, and then walked to the door, took off his shoe covers and put them aside, "Where are the two pots of flowers going to be placed?"

Huang Yixi followed out, and was amused, "Lawyer Kang, you really have you, these two pots of flowers are sent to my mother's heart." ”

A few days ago, Lin Shufang had been chattering, wanting to buy some orchids to plant, but she didn't like the common phalaenopsis on the market, but she didn't expect Kang Mingyang to send two pots of orchids, one pot is freesia, and the other pot is Hewang orchid.

Seeing these two pots of flowers, Huang Yixi shouted at the kitchen, "Mom, look at what flowers Xiaokang sent, they are all your favorites." ”

As soon as Lin Shufang heard about the flowers, she didn't care about the dishes in the pot, so she turned off the fire and trotted out.

"This is the crane orchid, this is the freesia. ”

Lin Shufang didn't have to look at it carefully, he could say the exact name with a finger.

"Wow, Mom, why are you so powerful? You can see their real bodies at a glance, this is not an eye, this is a demon mirror. Huang Yixi exclaimed.

"Less nonsense. ”

Lin Shufang glanced at her daughter, "What don't you understand, you look at this crane orchid, the flower shape is peculiar, like the head of a crane singing with a neck, don't you know? And this freesia, look at it, does it look like a golden needle? ”

Everyone looked at it, it was really an image, Huang Yixi looked at Hewanglan, "This flower, it is said to be an orchid, how does it look like the flower that grew on the roadside of our hometown before, the flower is bright red, and there is sweet juice in it when you pick it, and we children often go to pick it and suck it." ”

Huang Yixi couldn't say clearly, but Lin Shufang knew, "You're not talking about plantains and bananas, but cannas, this crane orchid is actually not an orchid, it is a plant of the banana family, two belong to the same banana family, and it is not uncommon to be similar." ”

"How do I remember that the plant is wild, it doesn't seem to be useful, it's been on the side of the road for a few years, how can it be called such a nice name as canna?"

Huang Yixi was a little unconvinced.

After Lin Shufang retired, her biggest hobby is to raise flowers, in order to raise flowers, she often looks for books about flowers to read, and knows a lot, "Of course, these flowers have a history, just like the freesia, the flower language is "pure, affectionate, fragrant", representing "fresh and comfortable", that crane orchid, that is, the bird of paradise, represents "auspicious happiness" and the canna, more bizarre, there is a beautiful and moving legend. ”

According to legend, Chu and Han fought each other, and Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, was trapped and embattled, and the army's heart was shaken and he had no intention of fighting. In order to inspire Xiang Yu to break through, the young and beautiful wife Yu Ji resolutely drew her sword and killed herself, interpreting the touching story in history - Farewell My Concubine.

Xiang Yu said goodbye to his dead beloved wife with tears, and led his troops to break through to Wujiang, there was Wujiang in front, and there were Han soldiers chasing after him, and the overlord of Chu saw that the general trend had gone, and he was ashamed to see the Jiangdong father and elder again, and he also drew his sword and killed himself, and the golden whip he carried was inserted into the ground, and it grew into a very vigorous green plant called the overlord whip, just like the majesty and heroism of the overlord of Chu.

Huang Yixi is very clear about this story, in the early years, Leslie Cheung acted in the "Farewell My Concubine", but he became famous all over the world, and it was about after that movie that the word comrade had another meaning.

However, the next story Huang Yixi is not clear, Lin Shufang said, "After Yu Ji's death, the fragrance did not disperse, followed to the Wujiang River, and saw the overlord whip that her husband turned into, and then turned into a canna and often accompanied the overlord whip by her side, accompanied by her beloved husband day and night." ”

"Really?" Huang Yixi didn't believe it.

This daughter is good at everything, but she is seriously suspicious, not because she doesn't believe in people, but because she doubts those legends.

Lin Shufang glanced at her daughter who was demolishing the stage, ignored her anymore, and held the flower pot to check, "Xiaokang, you give these two pots of flowers Auntie likes it too much, so I won't be polite to you." ”

"I knew that canna was so meaningful, well-off, you don't have to waste money to buy these two pots of flowers, just dial two cannas on the side of the road. Huang Yixi joked.

"Even if you dial it casually on the side of the road, you don't even bring back a single piece of grass how many times you go back and forth every day. ”

Lin Shufang glanced at Huang Yixi, seeing that people are well-off and easy to bully, they were actually bullied.

"Then if Xiaokang sends a fortune tree, will my mother like it too?"

Shang Luoyu didn't expect his mother-in-law to be so good to Kang Mingyang, so he sent two pots of flowers, Lin Shufang was so happy that he didn't go north, he sent so many things, and his mother-in-law was indifferent.

Shang Luoyu was jealous.

Lin Shufang doesn't like the fortune tree, it doesn't bloom and it's not good-looking, it's because of a good name and good meaning that he is famous, and in the Baishui Prefecture flower market, it's quite expensive.

Lin Shufang looked at her naΓ―ve son-in-law speechlessly, "Xiaokang is a good child, I like anything I give." ”
