Huo Yue Lan quickly called over the gardeners responsible for the old mansion’s landscaping and had them start digging holes.
Yun Zijin stood to the side, simply watching as Huo Yue Lan directed the commotion.
Lu Zhengguo and Xu Su Hua had also heard from others about Huo Yue Lan’s strange behavior since she’d returned, so they came over out of curiosity.
When they saw Huo Yue Lan having people dig holes, the elderly couple felt their temples begin to throb.
"Yue Lan, what are you doing?"
’Huo Yue Lan is usually such a sensible person. Why is she suddenly tearing up the family’s lawn?’
Xu Su Hua couldn’t understand it.
"Mom, I got two seeds from Zijin and wanted to try planting them here to see if they’ll grow."
"What kind of seeds are worth tearing up the old mansion’s yard for?"
In Xu Su Hua’s view, every plant and tree in the Lu Family’s Old Mansion had been meticulously planned by a designer. The slightest change would ruin the overall aesthetic.
If two trees were just planted here randomly—not to mention whether they’d even survive—the style of the entire courtyard’s landscape could be destroyed.
"This is it!"
Huo Yue Lan took out her phone and pulled up the photos she had taken of the Fire Tree and Ice Tree at Xingyu Mansion.
Upon seeing the photos of the Fire Tree and Ice Tree, Xu Su Hua’s first thought was, ’Aren’t these fake trees?’
But seeing how adamant Huo Yue Lan was, she grew a little doubtful and turned to look at Yun Zijin.
"Zijin, is what she’s saying true?"
This showed that Xu Su Hua trusted Yun Zijin more than she trusted Huo Yue Lan.
It couldn’t be helped. Huo Yue Lan could be really unreliable at times.
Back then, if Lu Xianzhang and Huo Yue Lan hadn’t fallen for each other, Xu Su Hua actually wouldn’t have been keen on Huo Yue Lan becoming her daughter-in-law.
But what could she do? Her son liked her, and she wasn’t the type of parent to break up a happy couple.
"It’s true. Grandma Xu, if you don’t believe me, you can go to Xingyu Mansion and see for yourself."
"There’s no need. I believe you."
Xu Su Hua trusted Yun Zijin a great deal. Although the girl was still young, she had a very mature personality and wouldn’t lie to an old woman like her about something like this.
Since Yun Zijin had confirmed it, Xu Su Hua began to examine the photos seriously. She had to admit, the two trees were truly beautiful.
Even if they were planted in the courtyard, they wouldn’t ruin the overall aesthetic. In fact, it even made her want to plant a couple in her own yard.
"Zijin, dear, where did you buy these seeds? I’d like to buy a couple to plant in my yard, too."
Everyone wants beautiful things.
"Grandma Xu, one of my elders gave me the seeds. You can’t buy them anywhere."
’The seeds came from the system; you couldn’t find another like them on all of Blue Star. Of course they couldn’t be bought in a store.’
Hearing this, Xu Su Hua sighed in disappointment. She had been hoping to buy some seeds and try planting them herself.
"If you like them, Grandma Xu, I have more. I can bring some for you next time."
Yun Zijin hadn’t taken out the seeds in front of Huo Yue Lan when she arrived, so she couldn’t produce them now.
Hearing that Yun Zijin had more, the old woman’s eyes lit up. "Wonderful! How much are they? I’ll buy them from you!"
Xu Su Hua thought that even if two seeds weren’t worth much, she couldn’t just take them for free and let Yun Zijin be out of pocket.
"Mom, the way you’re talking makes it sound like I’m some kind of freeloader."
Hearing Xu Su Hua offer to buy them, Huo Yue Lan felt her face flush with embarrassment.
