After marrying sick Yangzi, I made my whole family rich
Chapter 727 Discovering mother’s hobbies
That's right, why is Xu Mengxiao's mansion a mansion?
It's because there are not only tracts of bamboo forests, peach blossom forests, hot spring pools, various formations, and buildings and houses.
It can be said that there are dozens of courtyards, and there are more than a dozen in the courtyard alone. A courtyard is equivalent to a courtyard with one or two entrances.
There are not only verandas, study rooms, main halls, bedrooms, servant rooms, toilets, but also bathing areas.
The second entrance has more wing rooms, east and west wing rooms, etc. In addition, there are some martial arts fields and training grounds, as well as underground cells, torture chambers, weapons rooms, etc.
Then there is the middle area connected by various lakes, rockeries, corridors and pavilions, which can also be called a garden.
Generally, wealthy families would choose to hold banquets in such a place, which does not involve private areas, and is more open and has beautiful scenery.
Of course, neither father-in-law nor the others discovered the hidden things, because they didn't finish shopping just on the surface.
When they first came here, they were worried that something would happen to them and felt uneasy. When they chose to go shopping, they found that each yard here has a different style, layout, and decoration.
Of course Xu Mengxiao didn't observe so carefully, and she didn't see everything, but her mother discovered a lot and remembered it by heart.
“The flowers and plants planted in each yard are different.”
"There are some planting albizia trees, some planting some fruit trees, and some planting crabapples and placing various bonsais. Others include roses, spider plants, crape myrtles, osmanthus, cherry blossoms, ginkgo, lilacs, etc."
Xu Mengxiao took a deep breath and her eyes brightened, "Mother, how do you know so much? Do you know them all?"
"Of course you have to know some of the people who grow crops, but for more, I read the book about your eldest sister's embroidery patterns."
It turns out that Xu Lingyan makes various embroidery patterns, especially flowers and plants. Some of them are imagined by her own design, and some are made from real flowers and plants found in nature.
Then she had never seen so many flowers and plants, so she naturally had the habit of buying books of this type, so as to increase the content of her embroidery.
When she was in Luocheng, the book of flowers and plants that Xu Lingyan bought was quite thin, so Wang rummaged through it at that time.
When she arrived in Jiangnan, she found that this kind of booklet was more complete and had more categories. Xu Lingyan bought it with great joy.
Ms. Wang was also very happy and kept reading it when she didn't need it, reading it with pleasure.
It was good to know some words now. Not only did she recognize the flowers and trees, but she also read the introductions to them.
Although they still couldn't recognize most of the characters, Xu Mengxiao gave them a traditional Chinese dictionary that they could look up, so they could barely recognize a few more characters.
Therefore, such a booklet can not only provide patterns and inspiration for Xu Lingyan, but also pass the time for Wang.
The most important thing is that she likes to read, even more than the various story books that Xu Mengxiao specially brought for her. After reading them, she can not only recognize the flowers, plants and trees, but also learn more words.
Get it in one fell swoop!
Xu Mengxiao thought to herself, good guy, it turns out that her mother has learned so much without her knowing.
She obviously had something she liked very much, but she never thought about developing it. Her mother didn't even tell everyone what she liked.
So Xu Lingyan was a little surprised when she heard this. She didn't know when her mother became so "erudite".
Xu Mengxiao was like a good "mom" who was diligent in discovering her children's interests and hobbies, and working hard to cultivate their various talents. She grabbed her mother's hand and spoke earnestly.
"Mom, do you just like those flowers and plants, or do you like the process of their growth? I see that you have been planting a lot of things recently."
Xu Lingyan is mainly busy with embroidery, and Lu Dayou is also busy with studying. Is it her mother who is mainly responsible and promoted for that kind of thing?
Xu Mengxiao had the habit of growing things wherever she went, but she did not really enjoy the fun of growing things.
But she likes the feeling of harvesting fruits. When the vegetables and fruits are ripe, she will have all kinds of food and drinks.
In particular, there are many seeds that are not available in this era. Taking out those seeds with certain characteristics can not only bring benefits to her, but also enrich the taste of herself and those around her. This is the biggest reason why she likes it!
Of course, Chinese people are all flower growers, and farming is an instinct engraved in their bones. No matter how rich Xu Mengxiao is or how high her level is, she will continue to plant everywhere.
She also had the same view towards her mother, thinking that she was used to farming, so she wanted to plant some wherever she went so that she could pass the time.
But she forgot that farming was not only a habit of her mother who came from the village, but also most likely because she liked it!
Furthermore, does she like flowers and trees with more ornamental value?
Wang was confused by the question, "Is there any difference? I haven't thought about it. When I see those flowers and plants growing up, I feel happy when they grow up beautifully. Hey, women, don't they all like these things?"
"But our preferences are different. For example, my eldest sister and I have different preferences. She likes the variety, and I like delicious food. If you think about it carefully, what do you like? "
Wang thought for a long time but didn't give Xu Mengxiao an answer, and Xu Mengxiao didn't push her.
Some people, throughout their lives, can't find their own direction, don't know what they like and what they can do.
Once you find someone you are interested in, life often becomes more enjoyable. Xu Mengxiao hopes that her mother will truly like her, rather than passively obeying.
Therefore, she greeted her maids and men, took them to prepare a day's food, homemade poker cards and mahjong made by Xu Mengxiao, and got on the boat she had asked Zhu Dong to buy in advance.
"Okay, what a big boat!" Xu Lingyan and Mr. Wang were both shocked, and there was also surprise in their shock, because this boat, with its carved beams and painted pillars, is so beautiful and majestic!
"Where did you get it? Did it cost a lot of money?"
"What does this mean? Being happy is the most important thing. Since you two haven't talked recently, I just thought about having some fun."
So the way to have fun is to go boating on the lake in the mansion without leaving the mansion and ensuring safety as much as possible.
I have to say that even some royal relatives in the capital would not be able to do such an exaggerated gesture, because this area in Cizhou is so good!
So good that Xu Mengxiao managed to get it and now enjoys it with his family.
"Okay, let's get on the boat. When we were in Jiangnan, we were pressed for time and didn't let you have enough fun. This time I can take you to have fun, even if you spend the night on the boat."
"Oh, you girl, you just have a lot of guts. It's not like we have never been on a boat!" As she said this, Mrs. Wang felt very happy in her heart.
Xu Lingyan said: "The kind of passenger ship we ride on is different from this kind of painting boat. The kind of painting boat floating on Jiangnan Lake with red flowers and willows and bright lights. Some people even call it a flower boat. We don't dare to get on it at all. Now this is You can get on your own boat wherever you want!"
