Chapter 120: Chapter 120: Recreation and Entertainment

"There’s only one in the whole world?!" The old man Xia stared with wide eyes, unbelievingly at Xia Yue, not understanding how such a precious flower came into the possession of this slightly lazy, pretend granddaughter of his.

"Mmm hmm, as for how I got it, you don’t need to ask. Either way, it wasn’t illegal." Xia Yue nodded and said with a smile.

The old man Xia was silent for a while, thinking about this granddaughter’s project, it seemed she did indeed acquire it because of that. Which would imply her current status is quite special.

"Grandpa believes you, you said to water it with mountain spring water, loosen the soil, put in some wood ash and that’s it? What about humidity and temperature?" The old man Xia nodded, and continued to discuss the details of raising orchids.

"Humidity and temperature, just keep them normal." Xia Yue found a spot to sit down and said.

"Are you pulling my leg? This orchid looks like a delicate variety." Once the old man Xia heard this nonchalant answer, he complained dissatisfied.

"That’s how I raise it, I’ve been doing so for more than half a month. Isn’t it blooming now? The flowering period lasts another six or seven days." Xia Yue said.

"You, you, you... ruined it. This orchid didn’t die under your care, it must be really lucky. And to think you even graduated from the Agricultural University." The old man Xia pointed at her with shaking fingers saying this after hearing her, his words carried a trace of gradual relief.

"It really is that simple, I purposely picked the easiest method." Xia Yue innocently looked at him and said.

"Really?" The old man Xia looked at her innocent eyes, still not quite believing.

"Grandpa, even if I lied to my brother, I wouldn’t dare lie to you. It’s really that simple. If it dies, I’ll get you a better one." Xia Yue said with a firm nod.

"Then I’ll believe you. I’ll have to put it carefully. Tomorrow when my old buddies come, I must let them admire it." The old man Xia delicately lifted the flower pot, cherishing the flowers on top, he said with a chuckle.

Then as if remembering something, he looked at Xia Yue with even more affectionate eyes: "Grandpa really likes this gift, finally I can show off tomorrow in front of those old fellows."

"As long as grandpa likes it." Xia Yue said with a smile.

"Seems like the most favoured birthday gift of this year has been born." Xia Xin said.

"I have to say, this flower is indeed beautiful." Xia Yan nodded in agreement.

"I concede defeat fair and square" Xia Feng nodded, accepting his loss.

"You guys bet on this again?" The old man Xia was originally admiring the orchid, but hearing their conversation, he looked over and asked.

"A small bet, just for fun hehehe" Xia Xin said, looking a bit guilty.

Xia Feng and Xia Yan also looked a bit guilty.

Only Xia Xi was looking at them blankly.

"Every year when we prepare birthday gifts for grandpa, we would secretly bet on whether our own gift would be the most well-received. But I’ve never participated because my gifts were always prepared by my brother." Xia Yue leaned closer to Xia Xi and explained in a whisper.

Xia Xi nodded, instantly understanding.

"You’re just too idle, too much pocket money." The old man Xia said.

"Grandpa, we’re just amusing ourselves." Xia Feng quickly responded, worried that the old man might talk about reducing pocket money or finding chores for them to do in the next moment.

"Yeah grandpa, it’s just a game between siblings." Xia Xin looked at the old man with wide eyes, trying hard to explain.

"What’s going on now?" Xia Xi asked Xia Yue in a low voice, as if apprehensively anticipating what the old man might do.
