Chapter 125 Flowers and Plants
Gu Shi's heart trembled and he almost threw the oar in his hand away.
"What did you say!?"
Shen Xingran looked at her and repeated it word by word: "I say, let's get a divorce!"
She enunciated her words clearly and placed particular emphasis on the word divorce.
"Why?" Gu Shi was puzzled.
When Shen Xingran looked at him, the anger in her chest rose again, making it hard for her to breathe.
"Why? You actually asked me why? Well, I'll tell you now!"
"Because your mother and your sister always use vicious and filthy words to attack me, because they enjoy the convenience brought by me while calling me stupid! And you, every time you only listen to your mother and sister's one-sided words, asking me to admit my mistakes, why!?"
"Look at your conscience and ask yourself, have you ever stood by me once?"
Shen Xingran collapsed and yelled, tears streaming down his eyes.
Gu Shi stared blankly at the shrew-like woman in front of him.
In his impression, Shen Xingran always had a passionate smile. When did she become like this?
And what she just said.
"Xingran, I'm sorry, I will ask them to change it!" Gu Shi said hurriedly, trying to pull Shen Xingran's hand, but she dodged him directly.
"Don't worry, I will never let them scold you again, nor will I let them ask you for money. From now on, whatever you say is what I will listen to. This kind of thing will never happen again!"
Shen Xingran sneered and said slowly: "Then you ask your mother and your sister to move out of the house and live with other brothers."
Gu Shi was choked. He looked at the mockery on Shen Xingran's face and moved his lips: "Xingran, I am the eldest son in the family. According to custom, I need to take on the responsibility of supporting my parents in their old age."
Shen Xingran had calmed down by now. She didn't care. "Raise her however you want, but I don't have a masochistic tendency and I will never live with someone who scolds me every day. So let's get divorced, you raise your mother, and we have nothing to do with each other from now on."
Gu Shi begged her anxiously. If he hadn't been on the boat, he would have knelt down: "Xingran, please believe me once, I will definitely make them change!"
"Oh, change?" Shen Xingran looked at him and laughed mockingly, "How? How do you ask them to change? Don't you know who your mother and sister are? Do you think they can change?"
"It can be changed, they can!" Gu Shi said affirmatively.
Shen Xingran glanced at him calmly and rowed the boat back: "It seems that you don't know who your mother and sister are. I don't want to say anything more to you. Divorce."
Gu Shi disagreed and he also rowed the boat in the direction.
The two people each went in a different direction, causing the boat to start spinning on the lake.
Shen Xingran immediately let go of the oars: "Gu Shi, what do you want to do? Do I owe you guys anything? I deserve to be bullied by you, to be humiliated and insulted for the rest of my life!"
Gu Shi's eyes turned red, and he kept repeating incoherently: "They will change! They will change!"
Shen Xingran felt a fire burning in his chest: "Not getting a divorce, that's fine... send them away and never let them step into my house again, not even during festivals!"
Gu Shi's eyes dimmed again in an instant. He pleaded, "Shen Ran, please be reasonable. She is my mother. It is my duty to provide for her in her old age. How can I not let anyone in? Especially during the holidays! How would outsiders look at me if they knew?"
"Whatever you want!" Shen Xingran said nothing more and jumped into the lake.
Gu Shi on the boat thought she was going to commit suicide, so he followed her and jumped down.
Both of them can swim, which is a compulsory course in the army. If they go to some place to fight floods and disaster relief, wouldn't it be a waste of their trip if they can't swim?
But his swimming skills were no match for Shen Xingran. When Shen Xingran swam to the shore in a graceful posture, he had only swum halfway...
Shen Xingzhou and Qin Feixue took a car to the nursery street, where various flowers, plants and trees were placed in front of each store.
The two of them randomly chose a store and walked in. It was filled with all kinds of flowers, in a riot of colour, very beautiful and filled with fragrance.
Shen Xingzhou immediately sneezed because of the smell.
He has never liked these scented things because they are pungent and irritating to the eyes.
Of course, his young wife is an exception. The fragrance from her body makes him feel at ease.
Shen Xingzhou leaned towards Qin Feixue and felt better after smelling the faint fragrance on her body.
When the staff saw a customer coming in, they came over excitedly to greet him: "Hello, what would you like to buy?"
He was a young man who looked to be in his twenties. He was not tall. When he first saw Qin Feixue, he could not take his eyes off her. When he got closer, he found that she was a pregnant woman!
There was a tall and stern man standing next to him.
His eyes met the man's and he shivered instantly. He didn't dare to look at him anymore and even the smile on his face disappeared.
"Are there any fruit trees?" Qin Feixue asked straight to the point.
The young man was stunned for a moment: "What kind of fruit do you want? For common fruit trees, such as apples and pears, we have them in the store. If you want rare ones, such as pineapples and kiwis, you need to wait a few days."
As he introduced them, he led the two through an open-air venue full of flowers and into a nearby yard where saplings were planted.
There are big and small ones in it, the small ones are no bigger than a sapling, and the big ones are no bigger than a finger.
Next to them are various potted plants that were common in later generations but are relatively rare now, such as the money tree and asparagus fern.
The young man introduced each type of tree to her one by one, and finally Qin Feixue bought two pomegranate saplings for fifty yuan.
"Take another look at the flowers. Are there any that are so beautiful that you don't want to sell them?"
"Yes, I have!" The young man saw that she was selling the saplings so quickly, and he knew that the God of Wealth had come to help him increase his sales! His face was full of smiles.
"Please come this way."
He led the two of them through the tree-lined yard and came to the plastic greenhouse on the other side.
Plastic is a scarce commodity nowadays and ordinary people cannot buy it easily. Only these state-owned nurseries can use it to build greenhouses. But you can't just build as many greenhouses as you want. There are standards.
The flowers in the greenhouse do look more delicate.
The colorful flowers blooming outside are common roses and lilies in homes, while inside there are more flowers that require more care and effort to grow.
"Master, there are two people who want to see our roses."
The young man looked at an old man inside and said.
The old man stood up from the flowers and plants and looked at Qin Feixue and Shen Xingzhou. Both of them were good-looking, especially the little girl. She was a good match for his precious heterochromatic rose. It would not be a problem for him to take them to have a look.
He nodded, led the two people out of the greenhouse, and walked towards another glass greenhouse.
