Meng Tao didn't know this either, it was discovered by Grandpa Xu.

Last time, Shen Yu brought Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu to the courtyard and stayed for one night. The next morning, when they got up and took a walk in the courtyard, they saw a pile of things covered with film in the corner. They asked what they were. Shen Yu told him that they were some bonsai flowers. He had no time to take care of them, and was afraid that they would get cold, so he just left them there. Grandpa Xu also liked to take care of flowers and plants in his spare time. He hurriedly pulled open the film and saw that many potted flowers were frozen to death. He felt heartbroken.

At that moment, Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu started to tidy up the place and put the flower pots in place so that they would not be squeezed and damaged. They also instructed Shen Yu to tell Meng Tao: There are many precious flowers among the more than a hundred pots of flowers, including rare species of orchids. These precious orchids have extremely high ornamental value. It would be a waste of resources to just throw them away like that. If they don't have the time or know how to take care of them, they can just transport them back to the capital and have grandpa and grandma help them take care of them.

There are also a dozen flower pots that Grandpa Xu moved out and placed separately. He said they were old purple clay flower pots. Grandpa Xu collects old objects and has some knowledge of identification. He believes that these are from the Ming and Qing dynasties!

Isn't this an antique? How much is it worth? Meng Tao was pleasantly surprised. Grandpa Xu only said that orchids have ornamental value. He must also know that precious orchids have huge economic value.

Meng Tao was born in the 1990s in her previous life. She could not live without her mobile phone and computer. She browsed the Internet anytime and anywhere. Even though she did not know how to grow flowers, she knew the prices of various precious flowers. For example, ordinary orchids could be sold at a good price as long as they were well-grown, not to mention precious and rare varieties, which could easily sell for millions or even tens of millions of yuan! When she bought the yard, the flowers and plants had already withered and wilted. She came and went in a hurry without paying attention, and did not think about it. She subconsciously protected these flower pots just to enjoy the beautiful scene of flowers blooming and fragrant in the yard. Now that she knew there were precious orchids, how could she miss the opportunity to make a little money! It was a good deal to buy this yard for 600 yuan. It was worth it!

Meng Tao took a closer look at the dozen or so old purple clay flower pots that had been picked out, cleaned and wiped by Grandpa Xu. They were indeed different from the other flower pots. There were hexagonal pots for growing orchids, with clear, vigorous and powerful inscriptions on the edges of the pots, and the knife skills were vigorous and hearty. There were also four-sided rectangular pots with small pine and cypress planted, with mountains and rivers carved on them with exquisite knife skills, profound artistic conception and full of interest.

There are more than 30 pots of orchids, with more than ten varieties, including common ones such as Jianlan, Huilan, Qiulan, Baosuilan, etc., and precious ones such as Suguan Heding, Molan, Zilan, Binglan, Phalaenopsis... Meng Tao seemed to see piles of RMB, and her mood couldn't be better.

Shen Yu rubbed his little money-grubber's head and said, "What are you thinking about? Grandpa said that those old purple clay flower pots cannot be sold. They are old treasures. You can either keep them for your own flower cultivation or transfer them to him and he will pay for them."

Meng Tao was speechless: She loves money, but she didn't show it, did she? There was no engraving on her face, so how could Grandpa Xu guess that she wanted to sell the flower pot for money?

And how dare she make a deal with Grandpa Xu? He is a senior figure in the country.

He is the grandfather of her fiancé. No matter how greedy she is, she cannot accept his money. What will happen?

But since Grandpa Xu had spoken, it was really difficult to auction off those old purple clay flower pots. It was like looking at a huge amount of money in a mobile phone account, just sitting there and unable to be used. It felt really terrible, so it would be better to just give them to Grandpa Xu, out of sight, out of mind.

Meng Tao thought so and waved her hand generously: "What do you mean by money? It hurts our feelings. It is our duty to honor grandpa. If grandpa hadn't pointed it out, we wouldn't have known about it. These flower pots are too old-fashioned, and I don't like them either. I'll just give them all to grandpa."

Of course Shen Yu knew what his fiancée was thinking, and he couldn't help but laugh. He loved his little money-grubber even more, and without saying anything, he pulled her into his arms and took a few bites: "Grandpa said that this kind of flowerpot is very good for growing flowers and bonsai. He likes it, so I gave him six, and we'll keep the rest for growing flowers and plants."

"Well, I'll listen to you."

Meng Tao's face turned red from being bitten by him, like a ripe red apple or a shy blooming peach blossom.

Shen Yu was so angry that he wanted to teach Xiao Wangcai a lesson, but under Meng Tao's protection, the little Wangcai hid from him.

The two of them calmed down and continued to arrange the flower pots. Shen Yu pointed to the dozen or so flower pots placed in the corner and said, "Grandpa said that these orchids were frozen to death. Should we transplant some other flowers?"

Meng Tao took a look and said, "Let's keep it for now and wait and see next month. Maybe the weather will be warm enough and it will come back to life."

The roots of the orchid are buried in the soil. If they are not completely dead, they may be able to be revived by using pine needles and dew. If it is a top-quality and precious variety of orchid, you will make a profit.

After working for a long time, I finally managed to take care of the flowers and plants in the yard.

Meng Tao went to the kitchen to light a fire, and started to cook dinner while boiling water for her bath. She and Shen Yu agreed to have dinner early, and then go shopping and watch a movie.

Although Mengzhou City is a small place and cannot compare with the bustling and lively big cities, it feels good when two people are together.

Take out grain, fish, meat, vegetables, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and other things from the space. When no one is around, no food will be left in the kitchen, as it would be a waste if it went bad.

The fish were large live fish weighing five or six kilograms, caught in the Linshui River and kept in a lotus tank in the space. Meng Tao saw that there were no mutations in them, so she kept them with confidence. It happened that both she and Shen Yu loved eating fish, so they could eat fresh fish at any time.

We made boiled fish, stir-fried bitter gourd with shredded pork, cabbage hearts with minced garlic, and smashed cucumbers. The staple food was rice. The two people and the dog were very satisfied with the meal.

After dinner, they cleaned up the kitchen together, took a short rest, washed their hair and took a bath, dressed neatly, and under Xiao Wangcai's resentful eyes, they went out hand in hand.

Shen Yu insisted on not bringing Xiao Wangcai, saying that the cinema was a public place and if Xiao Wangcai made any noise it would affect others.

Xiao Wangcai followed his master's instructions and stayed at home to guard the house. He knew in his heart that Shen Yu was definitely jealous of him being protected by his master, and this was a personal vendetta.
