C67 Pregnant Ten Orchid
When the box opens, it's strange that it's not as dazzling as you think it is.
Luo Xue could not help but get closer before she could see clearly that there was a medium-sized dark brown seed. It was oval in shape and the size of a bean. It was quietly lying on a piece of cotton cloth. No matter how she looked at it, that piece of cloth was more eye-catching than it.
Everyone shook their heads. This gift was a little shabby.
Shi Lan picked it up and put it in her palm. She looked at it with interest and felt that it was familiar but also strange.
"This is?"
Shi Lan looked at Luo Xue with a face full of doubt.
Luo Xue swallowed a mouthful of saliva and was a little nervous. What was this thing? She did not know at all! Although she could tell it was a seed, she did not dare to make wild guesses.
She pretended to smile and secretly glanced at Mu Shucheng. He was sitting there all right, without any intention of helping her.
A flash of displeasure flashed across Luo Xue's eyes. This thing was prepared by him, so of course he knew what it was! If he did not tell her in advance, was he sincere?
"Grandma, this thing needs to be explained by the city. He is an expert. I dare not steal his lines."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Mu Shucheng with an ambiguous expression.
"Right? City."
After Luo Xue said that, everyone immediately shifted their gazes to Mu Shucheng.
Mu Shucheng narrowed his eyes and looked at Luo Xue, who was calm and composed, and the corners of his mouth curled into a beautiful arc.
This woman was simple and smart, and she knew how to act. He liked her!
Furthermore, this "City" was called. No matter how he heard it, he felt comfortable.
"This is a new orchid species developed in Hainan. It has been developed from scratch until it is out in the world. It took a total of one year and three months. Currently, there are no new seedlings in the world. So, what kind of flowers it can produce is only a guess. "
"It's said that the flowers produced by each seed are different. The fruit bag Grandma took contains millions of new seeds. If all of them are able to survive, it'll be a feast when the flowers bloom."
Luo Xue opened her small mouth and looked at Mu Shucheng in surprise. When did he prepare this thing? Didn't the old lady call him last night?
"Xue'er said that the first time she came here, she saw a garden full of orchids. She knew that Grandma liked this, so she begged me to buy the seeds for her."
Shi Lan's eyes lit up when she heard that. Her aged face was full of surprise.
"This is the new breed that was mentioned in the news a while ago?"
"Yes!"
" Didn't you say that it's not for sale? "
Luo Xue sat quietly at the side, maintaining a natural and generous smile on her face. It seemed to be calm and peaceful, but in fact, she secretly praised this gift for Mu Shucheng!
"I asked a friend to buy it from the inside. For this, she made a fuss for me for a few days!"
Love!
Luo Xue's mouth unconsciously twitched. She looked at the envious eyes all over the house and glanced at Mu Shucheng. This play was too much!
When Shi Lan heard this, she laughed so hard that she could not close her mouth.
"Good! Good! Ah Cheng and Snowy understand me best! Quickly put it away and put it away. I will start studying it after I eat later."
Shi Lan said as she carefully handed the flower seed to Mrs Chang's hand. Then she turned around and pulled Luo Xue's hand again. She was completely touched.
When one was old and tried to taste the world's cold weather, one would feel that life was boring. Shi Lan's biggest hobby was to play with orchids. In Lan Ling Garden, there were all kinds of orchids. This new breed could be said to be her dream.
"I saw on the news that this type of plant germinated to bloom. It was exactly ten months, so someone named it the 'Ten Birth Orchids'. I'm very happy that you've given me such a big gift. But do you know Grandma's biggest wish? Grandma hoped that when the Ten Orchid Flower bloomed, she would be able to have a great-grandson. It's a double happiness, you're too skinny now..."
Looking at Shi Lan's expectant eyes, Luo Xue felt embarrassed. She did not understand why Shi Lan would be able to wrap her head around this topic.
"Giving birth is not about being fat and skinny. I see that Young Madam's appearance is the life of giving birth to a boy. When the time comes, she will definitely give birth to a big fat boy for you."
Mrs Chang had followed Shi Lan for many years and could be considered to be the person who understood Shi Lan the most.
"En! Mrs Chang was right. You and the city must hurry up. Grandma is old now. The only hope she has right now is to wait for her grandson to be valued! Xiaoxue, promise Grandma that when the Ten Orchid Flower blooms, can you let Grandma see my great-grandson?"
Shi Lan's sincere and expectant eyes made Luo Xue at a loss. Under the eyes of everyone, it was not good to reject or agree. It was a fake marriage, how could she possibly have Mu Shucheng's child!
But if she directly rejected it now, not only would it hurt the old man's heart, it was likely that Mu Shucheng would look for trouble when he went back.
Luo Xue lightly bit her lips and did not know how to answer. Her small face was red, and there was sweat flowing out of her body. She could not help but secretly glance at Mu Shucheng.
He sat there with a serious face and his heart did not beat. There was a warm smile at the corner of his mouth, as if this awkward topic had nothing to do with him, Mu Shucheng.
Luo Xue could not help but frown. She lifted her foot and rubbed Mu Shucheng's leg, hoping that he could say something to end this topic as soon as possible.
Mu Shucheng moved his body and looked away from Luo Xue. A desire burned in the depths of his eyes. He felt that he needed to let Luo Xue understand what it meant to rub a man's leg under the table.
Mu Shucheng put his hand on the table cloth and placed it on Luo Xue's fair and tender thigh.
Luo Xue shivered and all the blood in her body was boiling. She reflexively took back her hands that Shi Lan held and slapped them hard.
"Pa!" There was a sound.
"Hiss..."
Slap! Slap! Slap! The slap did not hit Mu Shucheng, but it hit her instead. This time, it was more forceful. It hurt so much that she could not help but grin.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Luo Xue's big reaction, Shi Lan asked curiously.
"No, it's nothing. There are mosquitoes." Luo Xue glared at Mu Shucheng and quickly looked at Shi Lan to explain.
"Yes, there are many mosquitoes in summer. This courtyard is ancient. When we have time, we should clean it up."
"Grandma, I will go to the bathroom first."
"Okay."
After getting permission, Luo Xue ran out as if she was escaping.
"Hu..."
She walked outside and took a deep breath. She immediately felt much better. This old man was even better at giving birth to children than asking for money!
"Sister-in-law, why did you come out alone?"
Hearing the call, Luo Xue turned around and saw Mu Yu Lu walking towards her.
"I came out to take a breather, why did you come out too?"
"Nothing..."
Mu Yu Lu looked small and delicate. At this moment, she lowered her head and stuttered. She kept feeling that there was something she wanted to say.
Luo Xue did not have a good impression of this girl whom she had only met once on the day of marriage. She did not have a bad impression or dislike of her. She only felt that she was soft and weak and needed protection.
"What's wrong, Raindrop? Is there something wrong?"
"My mom... My mom wants you and Big Brother to take some time to go home and have a meal."
Her voice was very soft, so small that Luo Xue could not hear clearly without paying attention.
