Chapter 803: Valuable
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
With their departure imminent, they swiftly made preparations.
The excessive amount of purchases they made resulted in a substantial amount of luggage to carry. Shao Sanlang and Yang Xiaoni, in particular, had bought an abundance of food, resembling two squirrels with their stash.
Qiao Xuan, too, had numerous food ingredients, a third of which she discreetly stored in her spatial storage. Among them were various dried seafood items, unknown to those around her.
This strategy allowed them to save the trouble of carrying too many things back home.
Regarding the fields, Yuezheng Xiao’s manager had taken care of all the necessary arrangements on Qiao Xuan’s behalf. All she needed to do was inform the housekeeper of the tasks to be carried out, ensuring everything proceeded according to plan.
As long as Yuezheng Xiao was present, the manager would not dare deceive anyone.
With everything settled and their luggage packed, they prepared to depart the following day.
Shao Yunduan bid farewell to Xie Jingrong at the Xie Family before returning. In his hands, he carried a pot of orchids as a parting gift.
Qiao Xuan was taken aback by the Xie Family’s generosity upon realizing that the orchids they had gifted were of the highest quality.
Shao Yunduan explained the situation, saying, “The Xie Family mentioned that this silver-ink orchid is dying, and their florist couldn’t revive it. They asked if we could save it.’
Shao Yunduan didn’t consider themselves particularly skilled at planting. At least, he didn’t think so. Weren’t they just planting the same things as other families? Perhaps it was the quality of the soil that made everything flourish.
However, since the orchid appeared to be on the verge of dying and he felt sorry for it, he hesitantly brought it home.
Shao Yunduan decided to find a suitable pot to replant the orchid and placed it near the spring in Qiao Xuan’s garden. The springs water could moisten the gra.s.s and trees, offering a chance for the flower to be saved.
Curious, Qiao Xuan inquired, “Is this silver-ink orchid very valuable?”
Shao Yunduan nodded and replied, “It’s worth a fortune, equivalent to a significant amount of gold. It’s the only one in the entire Xie Family.”
Qiao Xuan gasped. ‘
The Xie Family gave it to them directly rather than try to save it?
Typically, most people would try to save a plant as long as there was even the slightest chance of survival, especially when it was a rare specimen.
Qiao Xuan gratefully accepted the orchid and said with a smile, “Darling, you may not know, but let me take care of it from now on!”
She intended to use her special abilities to help the orchid thrive, little by little.
Shao Yunduan didn’t object and rea.s.sured her with a smile, “Just take it easy and don’t feel pressured.”
“But if it does manage to survive…” Shao Yunduan paused for a moment and suggested, “Should we consider returning it to the Xie Family?”
Qiao Xuan had no objections. She smiled and nodded, saying, “Of course. Our soil is fertile, and it might truly thrive here!”
With that in mind, she planned to cultivate a new shoot from the orchid and then transfer it to her personal s.p.a.ce for further nurturing.
The orchids in her personal s.p.a.ce were flourishing, producing small shoots that could potentially be brought out and sold for a significant profit once they arrived in the capital.
Since valuable items were typically expensive, it was best not to have a large quant.i.ty of them. However, Qiao Xuan could consider taking a few more orchids with her if she desired.
Orchids thrived exceptionally well in her personal s.p.a.ce.
Carrying the precious orchid with her, Qiao Xuan and her family embarked on their journey back home the next morning..
