Chapter 420: Fortune Tree
"By the way, why is that flower pot over there still empty? Didn't you ask Uncle Zhou to help you buy a money tree? Where's the money tree? Hasn't it been put in yet?"
To be honest, she quite likes large money trees. After all, she had seen them at her employer's house before, and she had also raised small ones herself. Not only were they easy to raise, but they also had beautiful shapes.
Unexpectedly, when Zhao Yan heard her ask this, he just shook his head.
"Why? Didn't you buy it?"
Zhao Yanshu nodded, "Well, I didn't buy it."
"Why didn't you buy it? Didn't you see anything suitable?"
"No." Zhao Yanshu shook his head again, "It's just that we didn't find any money trees in the flower and bird market."
"ah?"
Lin Yuzhu was a little surprised. "Didn't find the fortune tree? That's impossible. Is this plant so rare?"
Zhao Yanshu was silent for a moment, then replied: "It's not that it's rare, but that no one has heard of this tree, so they don't know where to find it."
"Never heard of it?" Lin Yuzhu couldn't believe it. "Uncle Zhou hasn't heard of it either?"
Zhao Yanshu nodded, "No! No one knows."
Lin Yuzhu was completely silent when she heard this. What was going on? How could this happen? How could she not have heard of the money tree when it was so popular?
Or is this a plant from abroad? And it has not been introduced to China yet?
Lin Yuzhu's mind was racing.
At this time, Zhao Yanshu suddenly asked, "Where did you see the money tree before? Who told you about it?"
Lin Yuzhu was silent for a moment, and tried to find an excuse, "I forgot who told me that, it's been many years, I just remember it was an old man, who said he was raising a fortune tree."
"Do you remember what this fortune tree looks like?"
This time Lin Yuzhu nodded, "I remember, he has a very distinctive appearance, otherwise I wouldn't have remembered him for so long."
"Then come with me to look for it next time."
"Huh? Where to?"
"Go to the flower and bird market. Since you've seen people raising it, it must exist. I think it may have a different name. 'Money tree' may be what the old man you mentioned called it. Its scientific name may not be that, so people don't know it."
"Ah, is that so?"
Lin Yuzhu didn't expect Zhao Yanshu to say that, and she didn't know how to respond. She was afraid that if it really hadn't been introduced into the country, she wouldn't be able to find it even if she went there. She couldn't find another plant to replace it, right?
After thinking for a while and failing to come up with a good excuse, Lin Yuzhu decided to just give up.
"Okay, then let's go check it out together. If we can find one, that would be great. But if we can't, that's fine too. We're not professionals in raising these anyway, so we can just buy one at random."
"good."
So after the next holiday, Zhao Yanshu planned to go to the flower and bird market with her again.
As a result, before leaving, Mr. Zhou came to the door.
He heard Shuyao talk about their itinerary for the day and wanted to go along too.
"Xiao Lin, I've always been curious about what the money tree you mentioned last time looks like."
Lin Yuzhu's face froze after hearing this. "Well, I don't know how to describe it. I just think it looks good. Let's go and have a look this time. If I can find it, I'll point it out to you!"
"good."
The group of three soon arrived at the flower and bird market. Perhaps because of the reform and opening up, there were many people coming here and many things for sale.
In addition to various flowers and plants, there are many animals, not to mention cats and dogs, but more birds.
Maybe the locals in the old Beijing used to like to keep birds. Many of the old men coming and going here carry cages.
When Mr. Zhou arrived, he took them to the largest store in the center.
Soon an old man about his age came out to greet him.
