Chapter 171: Reminiscence

Translator: Lonelytree

When Gong Tianhao helped Old Master Gong to Xiao Lingyu's house, he was surprised to see that their house was filled with flowers and plants.

In his memory, no one in the countryside would have the leisure to plant flowers in their courtyard. Most of them would plant small vegetables for more income. More importantly, the flowers at the Xiao Family were well taken care of.

"Wait, this is giant crinum lily!" The old master saw a pot of flowers, and he was exceptionally excited. "This is a waste of God's gift to plant them here just like that."

It was just five or six in the afternoon. The sky was bright. The old master was not blind. At a glance, he saw the many different flowers in the yard.

"This is the orchid, sword-leaved cymbidium!

"And this here is the chrysanthemum, Si Zang Zhu Lian!"

The old master was excited when he saw these expensive flowers. However, his heart ached because these precious flowers were placed so casually in the yard or on the wall. But to his surprise, they were raised so well.

Xiao Zhengyang saw how excited Old Master Gong was, and he was confused, "Sir, what are you talking about? We, the village folks, don't know anything about flowers. We picked them from the mountain, and some were abandoned by others."

When Old Master Gong heard this, he sighed. This family had such good luck. They went up the mountain to pick some random flowers, and they were so of such precious varieties.

Old Master Gong asked curiously, "Does your family like flowers that much?"

Xiao Zhengyang smiled, "My Yu 'Er has liked flowers since she was young. When she saw beautiful flowers in the mountains, she would dig them up. When she went around the village and saw flowers other families threw away, she would pick them back to plant. Strangely enough, she was able to raise all the plants from death. The villagers called her the flower goddess jokingly."

Old Master Gong asked with great interest, "So you let your daughter plant all these because she likes flowers?" In the countryside, the villagers relied on the land to survive. The work was long and tiring. During the high season, even children had to go down to the field to help. Farmers normally wouldn't allow their children to waste time on useless hobbies like raising flowers. So, Old Master Gong could tell immediately that this family was different.

When Xiao Zhengyang heard Old Master Gong's question, he said seriously, "Sir, this is a child's hobby. We parents naturally have to support it!"

Xiao Zhengyang was very open-minded. Other families would do everything to control their children, but Father Xiao and Mother Xiao didn't share that philosophy. As long as their children didn't do anything bad or illegal, they wouldn't stop them. In fact, they would support them.

"Haha..." Old Master Gong laughed loudly in a good mood. "You're right."

'This whole family is very interesting.'

"Lingyu, I didn't expect your parents to be so open-minded!" Jiang Tao told Xiao Lingyu. But when he turned around, he noticed that Xiao Lingyu's face was a little pale, and her entire body was trembling. He immediately asked with concern, "Lingyu, What's Wrong?"

Jiang Tao's words immediately attracted the attention of others.

Xiao Zhengyang noticed his daughter was not acting right, and he moved to ask, "Yu 'Er, are you alright? Are you not feeling well?"

Xiao Lingyu was jolted awake by Jiang Tao's words. When she came back to her senses, she met Father Xiao's worried gaze. Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said, "Dad, I'm fine."
