Imagination is beautiful, but reality is cruel.
This is exactly how Qian Duoduo feels at the moment.
She thought that when she arrived at Cheerying Village, she would see a sea of flowers, but unfortunately, she was overthinking it.
Nowadays, even if there are places that sell potted plants and flowers, they are not so complete.
They found out about a family that had the largest variety of potted plants. After arriving at the place, the owner took her and Fu Junmo to the flower field.
"Little comrade, you're here too early. In two or three months, the flowers will look better and there will be more varieties. Right now, the only things you can grow at home are pothos, cacti, prickly pear, spider plants, asparagus ferns, roses, roses, and chrysanthemums. Those have just sprouted, so it's hard to take care of them if you buy them back."
Several people walked on the ridge and looked at it side by side.
Even the green radish is not very big.
"Uncle, have you sold all the crops you planted last year? Don't you have any big ones at home?"
The flower seller smiled and said, "Well, I do have some potted plants at home, but they're older, at least two years old. They're all rare flowers, and the green radish is also lush and green. They're more than three times more expensive than this."
Qian Duoduo nodded and said, "How much are the green radish and asparagus fern here? And how much is the largest cactus?"
At this time, the largest cactus in the field was about twenty centimeters long, and the cactus was as big as an adult's fist. The largest green ivy had only more than twenty leaves, which were not spread out and looked small.
"This green radish is three dollars and a half a piece, and the asparagus fern is the same price. The cactus is more expensive, and they are all brought back from the desert, so they are six dollars."
Qian Duoduo raised his eyebrows and said nothing. This price was indeed not cheap.
However, everything is valuable because it is rare.
There are people who like to grow flowers now, but there are few people who plant and sell flowers, so that’s why they are so expensive.
"Uncle, do you know where to buy flower pots? I bought these flowers but don't have a pot yet."
"You've asked the right person. I just brought back a batch of flower pots from the south last month. They're all newly produced this year. They're white, red, and blue and white porcelain. The colors are great, and the glaze is also excellent. I can't say anything else, but in the entire capital, the flower pots here are among the best."
The uncle said this with a proud look on his face.
Qian Duoduo was very happy that the problem could be solved in one go.
"Then uncle, I bought some flowers and flowerpots from you. Will you plant them for me? I don't know how to do it."
"Okay, what's wrong with that?"
Qian Duoduo smiled and nodded, calling more affectionately, "Thank you, uncle. Then please dig me two green radishes and two asparagus ferns, and then we'll go back to your house and check your stock."
The uncle nodded happily, and he could see that Qian Duoduo was not short of money. He took a shovel and walked into the field, picking out a few of the largest and best-looking ones.
The flower-growing uncle has a very large yard, with five large blue brick and tiled houses and three south-facing rooms. The yard is very large, more than 300 square meters, and is very tidy.
The three south rooms are filled with potted plants, including roses, peonies, and roses in full bloom.
Roses come in several colors: red, pink, yellow, white, and purple. Peonies come in light pink and dark pink. Chinese roses also come in several colors.
The green ivy has been grown for two years, with lush branches and leaves. The bougainvillea has just shed its leaves, and the pink buds are about to bloom, which is very lovely. The asparagus fern has been trimmed very beautifully, like a pine tree on a high mountain.
Qian Duoduo pulled Fu Junmo and smiled with a smile on his face.
There is no girl who doesn’t like blooming flowers.
"Jun Mo, it will look beautiful if we put these flowers on the balcony."
Fu Junmo curled the corners of his lips and said, "As long as you like it, pick whichever one you like. We'll go back later and we still need to decorate the house."
Qian Duoduo nodded, asked about the prices one by one, and after some bargaining, he finally bought four green ivy, two large asparagus ferns, two roses, a peony, a bougainvillea, a one-meter-high phoenix tail, and a one-meter-and-a-half-high money tree.
All the flower pots are made of blue and white porcelain.
The total cost of the flowerpot and flowers was one hundred and twenty yuan.
Qian Duoduo once again realized that potted flowers are a luxury in this era. However, she plans to come and buy some green ivy and asparagus fern after several stores open.
The two drove back to the courtyard first, and the three tailors had already made the quilt covers, sheets and curtains.
Qiannai, Liu Qiaomei and others have made a lot of mung bean cakes, snowflake crisps, and egg cakes. Qiannai also made some nougat, small twisted dough sticks, and peanuts.
In the morning, several people went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy red paper, cut some "囍" characters and streamers, and knew that Qian Duoduo and the others were going to the staff quarters to decorate, so they followed them to do the decorations.
After all, the two young people don’t know anything.
Fu Junmo brought Qian Duoduo, Qian Nai and Liu Qiaomei to the military district family compound.
When moving the flowers upstairs, the group of women were startled again.
I estimate that within a month, this family compound will be a hot topic of conversation.
As soon as Qian Nai and Liu Qiaomei entered the house, they were shocked by the shiny furniture all over the room. They touched it again and again, and kept muttering that Qian Duoduo was wasting money.
"You silly girl, how could you buy such nice furniture? How much does it cost?"
Qiannai pulled Qian Duoduo and cursed in a low voice.
This girl is so good at spending money, even if someone else could earn money, it wouldn't be enough for her to spend.
Qian Duoduo pushed it cleanly, "Grandma, these were all bought by Jun Mo, he likes them."
Qian Nai tapped her forehead and said, "Just do it."
As he spoke, he and Liu Qiaomei began to arrange the flowers. Qian Duoduo placed a asparagus fern on the TV cabinet and another on the bookcase in the small bedroom.
The little guy likes books, so it seems I need to find more suitable books.
