A quarter of an hour later, Shen Changshan came over with 20 strong laborers from the village. These people all had lively eyes.
I have also done a lot of work for others. Some people naturally knew how to build walls and quickly got the hang of it. The walls were built at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Chen Li was also fiddling with the things in her space, trying to see if there was anything suitable to take out. After looking around, she found that apart from some flowers and trees, nothing else would work.
Forget it, let’s buy it quickly.
Chen Li drove the carriage to the county town again, but this time he brought Bai Yao with him. The two of them went straight to the place where flower pots were sold in the county town.
The house is so big, it can’t be empty, so it needs a lot of decorations to fill it up.
The other decorations were too expensive and would cost too much money. It wasn't that she couldn't bear to spend them, but firstly, she was afraid her family would feel bad about it, and secondly, wealth shouldn't be shown off, so she might as well just get some flowers, plants, trees, etc.
There were many styles of flower pots, and Chen Li was almost dazzled. The waiter next to her was still introducing the flower pots to them, but she stopped him and asked them to look for themselves.
In the end, I selected a lot of flowers, of different sizes, tall and short, wide-mouthed and narrow-mouthed, single-colored and with their own patterns. In total, I selected about 100 flower pots.
"Miss, is that a bit too much?"
"It's okay, just put the extra ones aside for now, they'll be useful later."
"good."
Hearing her say this, Bai Yao was no longer worried. When she finally paid, she spent 20 taels of silver. Chen Li did not feel bad about it, as these flower pots would be valuable.
After waiting for a long time, several waiters finally wrapped the flower pots and loaded them onto the carriage. The two then drove the carriage back. It was already afternoon, and there were many small stalls on the roadside, many selling food.
The carriage stopped in front of a stall selling shengjian (stir-fried dumplings). She had never been able to resist such food.
The woman selling Shengjian (Shengjian) was a young woman, about 20 years old. When she saw Chen Li standing in front of the stall, she smiled kindly and said, "Miss, would you like some?"
"Well, I want all of these."
The woman's face instantly showed a happy smile, "I'll put it on for you now, wait a moment."
After waiting for a while, the woman packed up the 100 or so Shengjian on the stall. At the end, she did not forget to remind her: "Girl, it will be cold when you take it back. Put it in the pot and heat it up a little."
"OK."
After giving the silver neatly, he drove the carriage forward. After a while, he stopped the carriage and took Bai Yao to eat a bowl of glutinous rice balls. He also packed some sesame cakes from the stall next door to take back.
The glutinous rice balls are delicious, with sesame filling and osmanthus flowers on top. They are soft, glutinous, sweet and not greasy. The ones made by machines are much more delicious.
After eating and drinking, they drove the carriage back. Bai Yao really wanted to ask, aren’t you buying flowers instead of flower pots?
But she changed her mind and realized that she had already thought of the young lady's temperament and didn't buy it, which meant that she had a plan in mind.
"Bai Yao, have you thought about it? What are you going to do in the future?"
Bai Yao was slightly stunned. Will she have a future in the future?
"Miss, you saved me and let me stay with you. I will always follow you from now on."
Chen Li was very troubled. The girl was not very old, only about 17 years old. It would not be an exaggeration to describe her as a child in later generations, but why was her personality so rigid?
"It's okay if you want to follow me, but first change your address to someone else. Don't call me Miss, Master, or Madam all the time. It gives me a headache."
"ah……"
"You're a free man now, calling me Miss all the time, isn't that lowering your status?"
"But……"
"Don't be, you're still young and there are so many things you can do in the future. Don't belittle yourself because of a temporary hardship."
Bai Yao's eyes were red. She knew that what Chen Li said was true, but this hurdle was really hard to overcome.
Seeing her silence, Chen Li stopped talking. Some things still needed to be figured out by herself.
Bai Yao was silent for a long time, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. The young lady was younger than him, but the tone of her voice just now, hmm, seemed to be a lot older than him?
It turns out that the lady is not an ordinary person!
Chen Li: “…”
After returning home, I moved all the flower pots downstairs and put them away. It was getting late today, so I could buy other things later.
The tiles on the house have all been installed, and the house has been almost cleaned. Now we just have to wait for the fence to be built. Once the furniture is brought home and placed, we can move in.
The family has not yet discussed how to move. Normally, they should treat everyone to a meal when moving into a new house, but they have just arrived in the village and are not familiar with everyone, so they decided to put the idea on hold and wait until the house is ready.
The wall was being built in full swing. The next morning, Chen Li went into the mountains carrying a backpack.
After buying so many flower pots, I have to find a way to get some flowers and plants back, otherwise it would be a waste, right?
Although there are some flowers and plants in his space, they are just for show. He might as well go look for some outside.
When I was in the mountains before, all the orchid agarwood I encountered were sent into the space. Now there are about twenty kinds of them in it.
I guess there won’t be many flowers and plants in the mountains. It seems that next time I have to find time to go to the place where flowers and trees are sold to buy some seeds or seedlings and then grow them myself in the space.
As soon as Chen Li walked into the mountains, he found a lot of cloud-shaped pines, also known as asparagus fern, beside the stream.
I used a small hoe to pull out a lot of agarwood. Nowadays, people who don’t know it would think it is a weed, but it can actually be used as medicine.
But for Shen Li, this is one of her favorite display tables. She even pulled out a lot of the moss next to it.
Not to mention the beautiful little stones next to it, which will be very beautiful when placed together later.
After transplanting some plants that were planted by the stream in the space, Chen Li continued to search in the mountains. Walking all the way up, he actually saw several jasmine trees at the top of the mountain.
Chen Li couldn't believe it, so she quickened her pace and ran over. Only when she saw it with her own eyes did she believe it.
This time he didn't dig, but directly used the sawdust ability to move all four jasmine flowers into the space.
This will not damage its roots and save time and effort.
These are four jasmine plants. I don’t know how long they have been growing here. Now they have grown to two meters tall. I will take cuttings of them when I go back in the evening, so that I can get a lot of jasmine flowers.
Chen Li wandered around in the mountains for most of the day and later found a few camellia trees, purely wild ones. However, it was not the flowering season yet, so he had no idea what kind they were.
During this period, all the azalea trees, magnolia trees and agarwood trees encountered were not spared and were moved back into the space.
It’s a pity that there are no roses and Chinese roses. I’ll go to the flower and tree market next time and look for them. I should find them.
I didn’t want to buy it at first, but the varieties I have are too few.
When Chen Li finally returned home, she had more than twenty orchids in her backpack and some river shrimps in her hands, intending to have them as a snack for tonight.
