Chapter 190, Sunflower Seeds
Seeing Yan Wenkai and the parrot cursing at each other, "idiot, idiot", everyone in the room was laughing.
The old lady also stared at the parrot with a look of surprise, and exclaimed in amazement: "This parrot speaks very fluently."
At this time, Wang Maner walked in with a plate.
"Hey, what's on the plate? Why have I never seen it before?" Dong Yuanxuan and others looked over and found that they had no idea what was on the plate.
Daohua took the plate and said with a smile, "These are sunflower seeds."
She planted the two sunflowers she got from Zhou Jingwan's house last year in the space, allowing her to harvest a lot of sunflower seeds. Now, she has also planted a lot of them in the farm.
At this moment, the parrot was no longer arguing with Yan Wenkai. Its pair of small black eyes were staring at the plate in Daohua's hand without moving, with a look of greed.
Daohua smiled and waved the plate in front of the parrot. Wherever the plate moved, its eyes followed, as if they were glued to the plate.
"Identification completed, this is a foodie parrot!"
As he spoke, Daohua grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds and placed them in front of the parrot.
The parrot flapped its wings twice, lowered its head and started eating. In just a moment, it had eaten all the sunflower seeds. Then, with an intoxicated look on its face, it said, "Delicious, delicious!" After a pause, it said, "Give me some more, give me some more!"
The look of begging for food made the old lady laugh out loud.
"You're a connoisseur!"
The sunflower seeds produced in the space are fragrant and crispy, and she likes to eat a few when she has nothing to do.
Daohua smiled and waved the plate in front of the parrot again: "Do you want to eat it? If you do, say a few auspicious words for me to hear."
"Daihua, happy birthday!"
Daohua shook her head: "I've heard this before."
The parrot was silent for a moment, as if thinking, or recalling the words it had learned, and then it said: "Rice flowers are loved by everyone, flowers bloom when they see them, and tires burst when cars see them. They are thicker than city walls!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the room fell silent!
After a few seconds, there was laughter.
Yan Wenkai laughed the most happily, leaning forward and backward, holding his stomach and unable to stand up.
Seeing this, Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang angrily.
Xiao Yeyang touched his nose embarrassedly and didn't look at Daohua's expression.
On the Lantern Festival, he thought Daohua's boasting about herself was funny, so he made a joke while teasing the parrot, but he didn't expect the parrot to remember it.
Daohua pouted and sat down next to the old lady. The old lady had also laughed herself to death. She knew that if she continued laughing her granddaughter would be embarrassed, so she waved her hand and said, "Okay, okay, stop laughing and eat your noodles. If you don't eat them now, they will all clump together."
In fact, it was already a bit clumpy, but because it was Daohua’s longevity noodles, everyone sat down and prepared to eat.
Outside the house, Yan Zhigao listened to the loud laughter coming from the dining room. He stroked his beard and smiled, then said to Madam Li beside him, "I won't go in, so as not to make the children uncomfortable."
Madam Li smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, I will watch it and the last incident won't happen again." She was referring to the fact that Yan Yile had asked the young prince for a quota without knowing the proper manner.
Yan Zhigao was relieved about Madam Li and left with a brisk pace.
When the little prince came to their house, they didn't need to try too hard to please him. They just needed to let him have fun and be at ease. The eldest daughter did a very good job in this regard.
Daohua and others had just finished their noodles when Zhou Chengye arrived with Zhou Jingwan.
"Daihua, happy birthday!"
The voice arrives before the person arrives.
Daohua was instructing Wang Man'er to serve sunflower seeds to everyone. When she heard Zhou Jingwan's loud voice, she immediately laughed: "This girl acts as if others don't know how loud her voice is." As she said this, she walked out of the room to greet her.
As soon as I reached the door, the curtain was lifted.
"Happy birthday, Sister Zhou!"
Zhou Chengye smiled and handed over a pot of orchids in his arms.
"Thanks!"
When Daohua saw the orchid, her eyes lit up and she took it with a curved brow.
The orchids raised by the Zhou family are very valuable, and she has always wanted to get one to cultivate.
Zhou Jingwan came up immediately and said, "I begged Grandpa for this for you after a long time. You should thank me."
"Yes, yes, thank you Miss Zhou!" Daohua smiled and handed the flower pot to Wang Man'er beside her, then pulled Zhou Jingwan into the house. "You came at the right time. I was just telling everyone about sunflower seeds!"
Zhou Jingwan: "Sunflower seeds, are they sunflower seeds?"
Rice Flower nodded: "Yes, it's the sunflower seeds."
Zhou Jingwan: "Is this edible?"
Daohua: "Yes, it tastes good." Then, she grabbed a handful of melon seeds and handed them to Zhou Jingwan, "Try it quickly."
Zhou Chengye also started eating and said in surprise, "I didn't expect sunflower seeds to be edible. They taste pretty good."
Daohua immediately said, "You guys should eat well and bring some back when you go back."
Zhou Jingwan nodded quickly: "Okay, okay, I think these sunflower seeds are especially suitable for eating while watching a play."
Upon hearing this, Daohua laughed immediately. It turned out that eating melon seeds and watching a play has always been a great pleasure throughout the ages.
Everyone in the room chatted and laughed, and then went to the yard to appreciate the flowers, drink tea, and recite poems. Yan Wenkai even took out the playing cards and started playing with Xiao Yeyang and the others.
Everyone laughed and had a great time throughout the morning.
It was almost noon when Daohua took Wang Maner to the kitchen to see how the food was prepared. When they came back, they met Butler Sun.
Seeing Butler Sun carrying a food box, Daohua stopped him and said, "Butler Sun, where are you going?"
Steward Sun walked forward anxiously, bent over and said with a smile: "Mrs. Lin said earlier that she wanted to eat something sweet, and the master asked her to send some cakes."
Daohua raised her eyebrows: "Oh? What kind of pastry is it? Let me see. If it tastes good, I will ask someone to buy it for mother to try." She didn't see her cheap father thinking about her mother.
Butler Sun had a bitter look on his face and sighed in his heart, how come he met such a young lady?
Seeing that he was procrastinating, Daohua was not anxious. She just stood there and didn't urge him.
Finally, Butler Sun gritted his teeth and opened the food box.
Looking at the red blood swallow cake in the food box, Daohua's face immediately darkened and her voice was a little cold: "This is what mother sent to nourish father, right?"
Blood swallows are rare and were given by Xiao Yeyang. She also made the blood swallow cake by herself. After it was made, she only gave it to the old lady and Madam Li, and no one else.
Butler Sun smiled bitterly and nodded.
Daohua sneered, "Father is quite kind to women, but it's a pity that he let mother down."
Housekeeper Sun hurriedly said, "The master was just thinking about Concubine Lin being pregnant, so..."
Before he could say anything, Daohua raised her hand to interrupt him: "Okay, go and deliver your things." After that, she turned around and left with Wang Maner.
Seeing this, Butler Sun regretted it so much that he slapped himself several times. Why didn't he think of checking if there was anyone around before entering the backyard?
After separating from Butler Sun, Daohua was in a bad mood and was not in a hurry to return to the old lady's yard. She just walked slowly with Wang Maner.
Finally, he came to the pavilion where Xiao Yeyang and others had played chess before and sat down.
