Mrs. Shao San and mother and son Shao Yixuan were making a fuss at the other end, but Shao Ya at the other end was standing in a daze.
Although she was not at the scene in the afternoon, she clearly saw the conflict between Yun Mo and her brother through the telescope on the tower.
On the surface, this "country bumpkin" brought back by his uncle is a domineering and domineering person, and he dared to fight his younger brother on the first day he came back. However, the other party made such a scene, not only did he not suffer any loss, but he also built up his prestige.
Even the young master of the Shao family dared to beat her at her request. Who among the Shao family's servants would dare to bully her without the sense of humor in the future?
Also, if you can walk through the door of the Shao family compound before your identity is revealed, how can you be a fool like Shao Yian?
Shao Ya took a breath and walked towards her younger brother.
"That's pretty much it. There's nothing to cry about, and I'm not afraid of others laughing at me."
Shao Yixuan glared at Shao Ya aggrievedly, "You are no longer my sister. I was bullied so miserably, and you didn't help me and you still blamed me.
"When did I say I wouldn't help you?"
Hearing this, Shao Yixuan suddenly turned from sadness to joy. He pulled Mrs. Shao San aside who was still coaxing him, and stared at Shao Ya with his eyes like light bulbs.
“Sister, let’s go find that stinky country bumpkin tomorrow to settle the score!?”
Shao Ya said calmly: "Not tomorrow. She is new here. We are ignoring her when she comes to her door like this. We have to wait for a suitable opportunity."
"How long will it take?"
"You'll know then."
At Lanju's side, three generations of the family had eaten and drank enough. Sister-in-law Hua led the servants to remove the cups and plates from the table and served the cut watermelon.
"I bought a good watermelon today. It has thin skin, red flesh, plenty of juice, and is quite sweet."
Shao Lin took a bite and was full of praise.
Sister-in-law Hua laughed and said: "The watermelons grown by the eldest lady are naturally different from those outside."
Shao Lin was surprised and happy, "Momo, did you grow this watermelon?"
"Um."
Yunmo also took a piece and ate it. It melted in the mouth and was full of juice. Taking a bite was as satisfying as drinking juice.
This was the first watermelon grown in the space, and it was also the first time she ate it. The taste was even better than she imagined.
"Sister-in-law Hua, please leave a few pieces on the table and take the rest and share them with everyone."
The taste of cut watermelon changes after being left overnight, so it is better to share it with the servants and eat it together, which is also a favor.
Sister Hua smiled and responded, "Then I would like to thank the eldest lady on behalf of all the servants in the main courtyard."
"Is it enough points?"
"That's enough. There aren't many people in our main courtyard. The eldest lady's watermelon is huge. Everyone can get a big piece."
"That's good."
After Mrs. Hua happily took down the watermelon, Shao Lin asked with concern what happened in the afternoon.
"Momo, I heard that that brat Ah Xuan came to trouble you this afternoon?"
Yun Mo put down the watermelon in her hand, wiped her hands and mouth with a towel before replying: "It's not like you're causing trouble for me, and I'm not polite when I do it. Dad, have I caused trouble for you?"
Shao Lin waved his hand, "Momo, you are my only daughter. They dare to provoke you because they don't take me seriously. I can't spare them."
I have heard what Wei Fu said, you did a very good job today, and if some unsighted people come after you in the future, you will still be like this, don't worry, I will support you."
Speaking of this, Mrs. Shao also took over, "Your father is right, Momo, you are the eldest lady of the Shao family and my biological granddaughter. Not to mention that you cannot be bullied, even if you walk around in the Shao family
There’s nothing wrong with that.”
Although she was very cool when she hit someone, when she calmed down, Yun Mo still felt unsure.
A prominent family like the Shao family is very particular about discipline and etiquette. If she caused trouble and hit people just after she came back, she probably wouldn't have a good impression in the minds of the elders.
Shao Lin pampered her and pampered her, but she didn't expect that even Mrs. Shao would put aside her bottom line and principles to support her. Yun Mo was moved, but also felt a sense of intimacy and happiness stemming from family affection.
"Dad, grandma, don't worry, I am sensible. No matter what, he is still my brother. I just had a little fight with him and didn't hurt his bones."
Shao Lin hummed, "That boy Yixuan is rough-skinned and thick-skinned. He can't be broken even after a few beatings."
Mrs. Hua, who just came over, smiled and answered, "I just heard from Wei Fu that after the second young master returned, he was beaten so hard by the third master that he was so angry that he went out without even eating dinner."
Yun Mo was not surprised at all by this result.
If Shao Yixuan dared to call her a beast, Xiyuan would beat his son severely even if he was just pretending.
Sister-in-law Hua asked Yun Mo again what to do with the two bamboo baskets. Yun Mo asked the other party to bring the bamboo baskets over, then turned to Mrs. Shao and said: "I heard from Dad that you like orchids. I took the time to look for them at the flower market in Jiang City."
I bought two pots and raised them carefully for a period of time. A small gift is not a sign of respect, so I hope you don’t dislike it, grandma."
As soon as she heard that Yun Mo was going to give her orchid grass, Mrs. Shao immediately became interested.
"What breed is it?"
"A pot of emerald orchid and a pot of lotus petal orchid."
Shao Lin hissed softly, "Momo, these two pots of orchids are not easy to grow. Your grandma also spent several years raising them before she learned the ropes."
Mrs. Shao rolled her eyes unceremoniously at her son for exposing his embarrassing story so easily.
Feeling his mother's displeasure, Shao Lin quickly made amends, "But now your grandma is an expert in orchid cultivation. No matter what kind of orchid is carefully maintained by her, it can bloom with brilliance."
Yun Mo smiled, "Well, I can't compare to grandma. I just improvised and asked a local old gardener for some tips on growing orchids."
Mrs. Shao took over, "If you are interested in growing flowers and grass, you can come over often to learn when you are free."
"OK."
While the grandfather and grandson were talking, two bamboo baskets were carried to the pavilion.
Lingchuan took the initiative to stand up, opened the bamboo basket, and carefully carried the orchids inside to the stone table.
Orchids are valuable because of their long cultural history, long growth cycle, and difficult maintenance.
Mrs. Shao did not have high expectations for the two pots of precious orchids that her granddaughter was going to give her. The orchids she had raised for decades had always failed, and her granddaughter was just coming into contact with orchids for the first time. It was not even an introduction. It would be good if she could feed them.
Already.
She secretly made up her mind that no matter what the appearance of the two pots of orchids, she would pretend to be happy and surprised, so as not to upset her granddaughter.
But when Lingchuan placed the orchid grass in front of her, she was immediately so amazed that she couldn't move her eyes away.
As the name suggests, the jade orchid flowers are crystal clear and exude a warm and transparent luster like jade. From a distance, they look like an exquisite and flawless jade sculpture.
Even Shao Lin, who has no interest in orchids, couldn't help but whisper, "Momo, did you raise this pot of emerald orchids?"
"Well, I've been raising it for a while, and it just happened to bloom in the past two days, which is quite beautiful." Yun Mo pretended to be happy.
"There's another pot here."
After Mrs. Hua reminded her, several pairs of eyes looked at the other bamboo basket on the ground.
With the jade orchid in front of them, everyone is looking forward to whether there will be a better treasure than the jade orchid in the remaining bamboo basket.
