Chapter 127: Jasper
"My mother said that my grandmother loved orchids."
Zhou Ziheng said with great interest, "My sister planted several precious treasures not long ago, you have good eyes." ”
mentioned Li Yan, classmate Ning Yuan asked him, "Nianqing, when can we meet Sister Li Yan?" ”
Ning Yuan's interest in Ziheng's righteous sister is much more than that of orchids.
They came to Hejun all the way, and they heard too many stories about Li Yan, which were even more exciting than what was written in the script.
"Soon, soon, less than two hours before the recognition ceremony, wait, I'll see you."
Zhou Ziheng was more anxious than the two classmates, he hadn't seen his sister before, and he wanted to see the legendary sister as soon as possible.
"Nianqing, I really envy you, you have such a good sister-in-law." Ning Yuandao.
Zhao Yu followed, "Yes, Nianqing, your life is really good." If I have a sister, I have no regrets in this life. ”
was envious and jealous by the two classmates, Zhou Ziheng walked a little fluttering, "You guys, if you don't have that life, don't dream." ”
It's a great feeling that I have a good sister and you don't.
He reminded the two classmates, "It's a blessing for you to see your sister today, but don't be too greedy." ”
The more Zhou Ziheng said, the more exaggerated it became, and the two classmates didn't refute it at all, and said very approvingly, "Well, it's not in vain for us to come here if we can see my sister today, how dare you think about it, Brother Nianqing, you are too worried!"
Xiao Qi, who was watching coldly from the sidelines, was in a slightly delicate mood.
It turned out that Miss Li had already become famous before she knew it, and even spread to these students.
You must know that Zhou Ziheng and the others still came from Lingnan Lishan Academy, and they are at least three or four hundred miles away from Hejun County.
"Isn't that Jasper?" When Xiao Qi's thoughts diverged, Zhao Yu, who was traveling with him, suddenly opened his mouth in surprise.
He pointed to the potted plant with pale yellow petals in the bush and ran over a few steps.
Zhao Yu stood still in front of the yellow potted plant, squatted down, took a closer look, and then turned back in surprise, "Really?" Nianqing, my sister actually moved Jasper here. ”
Zhao Yu was born in the Lingnan aristocracy, with the leisure and elegance of the son of a family, and her mother loves to play with flowers and plants.
He has been exposed to some rare flowers and plants since he was a child, and now he sees jasper orchids in the garden of Zhou's mansion.
Zhao Yu was overjoyed, and turned back to wave to the two classmates, "Come and see, such a variety is rare." ”
Zhou Ziheng and Ning Yuan walked over to watch, Ning Yuan was not very interested in flowers and plants, and he couldn't see why he came, just to join in the fun.
Zhou Ziheng simply felt that this flower was transplanted by his sister, and saw Zhao Yu's ecstatic appearance.
My heart is filled with a sense of pride.
"Ah, in front of my sister later, don't make a fuss and lose the face of your Lingnan nobles."
Zhao Yu's eyes focused on these rare and exotic plants in front of him, and he didn't take his words at ease.
"Brother Nianqing, this is what you don't understand, and if you understand, you won't say that."
Zhou Ziheng saw his call for Brother Nianqing, and remembered that this person was cold to him a few months ago, and his mood was indescribable for a while.
It is said that Zhao Yu has always been very confident and does not like to make friends with people.
It was only a month ago that my sister's reputation spread, and this person took the initiative to come and talk to him.
At that time, Zhao Yu did not know about their family's recognition of relatives.
I only heard that he came to study with the county, so I tried to ask him about his sister.
Later, the relationship between the two gradually became closer, and they knew that he was going back to his home to participate in the recognition ceremony, so they came with him.
After all, there are few girls like my sister in the world, and these young people have some curiosity and want to come over to have a look, which is normal.
Including Ning Yuan, too, their purpose was to see his sister, and Zhou Ziheng did not refuse them.
It's just that because of the epidemic, the schedule of Huihe County has been postponed again and again, and I thought that after a long time, the minds of these two people would rest.
No, the two of them became more and more urgent, and they had to ask him about the schedule of going home every two or three days, afraid that he would not bring them.
"You know, then tell us what's so strange about this jasper."
Zhou Ziheng retracted his thoughts and picked up his words, that is, he wanted to hear the words praising his sister from him.
"This jasper orchid is also known as the deep valley orchid, in the mountainside valley wall, the cliff is suitable for growth, sex likes yin, avoid yang. It can't survive in an ordinary garden, but the jasper orchids on the house have beautiful leaves and bright colors, which are really of the highest quality. This jasper is on the verge of extinction, don't you know, how high the asking price of a pot of jasper in the flower market is? ”
"How tall is that?" Zhou Ziheng asked curiously.
"Eight thousand taels of silver."
"Eight thousand taels?" Zhou Ziheng was stunned for a while.
Ning Yuan was also shocked.
"There is no price in the market, and it is hard to find a pot."
"My mother loves orchids, especially this jasper, and if she can't ask for it, she reads it every day at home."
Zhao Yu looked at the row of seven or eight pots of jasper orchids in the garden and sighed twice, "Your family is really a tyrannical thing, if my mother sees it, I guess I will go crazy." ”
She can't get a pot every day, and she puts seven or eight pots in the people's home casually, which is simply not for people to live.
Zhou Ziheng was a little confused, and asked them, "You said that there is so much silver in the garden, do I want to send a few people to guard it." Zhao Yu, take a look again, my sister seems to have brought other flowers and plants, will my sister give too much? ”
"Don't say anything else, the pot of "Duosha Chrysanthemum" next to Ning Yuan's feet is worth at least a thousand taels.
"Just this chrysanthemum is worth a thousand taels."
Ning Yuan was dumbfounded, "It looks quite ordinary, it's not worth the price." ”
Zhao Yu looked disgusted, "This sand chrysanthemum is a kind of orchid, you can't even tell the chrysanthemum orchid, so naturally you don't know its value." ”
"Brother Nianqing, you can call a few gardeners to guard it in a while, and there are white flowers and silver taels everywhere."
"I don't dare to put my feet at will now"
Ning Yuan said, "Brother Nianqing, you still said that your family is small and your family is simple, that's all, how can you say it." ”
Zhou Ziheng, "As far as you clansmen are concerned, my family is a small family, I'm not wrong." ”
Zhao Yu and Ning Yuan glanced at each other, and shook their heads in unison, "Brother Nianqing, you are too humble." ”
In a few years, the lintel of Zhoufu will definitely soar.
After all, there is no little girl like Li Yan in anyone's family.
"Let's go, go to the pavilion and sit for a while, this flower is so precious, I'm really afraid that I will accidentally step on it." Ning Yuandao.
Zhao Yu agreed.
The two of them walked around the flowers and plants, holding Zhou Ziheng left and right, and walked to the pavilion and sat down.
Xiao Qi has long been forgotten.
"Brother Nianqing, when the family recognition banquet is over, introduce us to my sister." Zhao Yu said.
I want to see my sister too. "Ning Yuan is not far behind.
"Didn't I promise me not to be greedy just now, how did I change my mind after a while."
Looking at the fixed eyes of the two classmates, Zhou Ziheng subconsciously felt that he shouldn't bring his sister to see them.
"My mother loves Jasper so much, I can't sleep at night, I see my sister, but also to buy flowers from her and please my mother, you can't bear to let my mother down." Zhao Yu gave a reason.
This reason is barely passable.
"What about you?" Zhou Ziheng asked Ning Yuan.
