After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man
Chapter 295 Warmth Conjecture
"My master told me that it is extremely rare for a jade tree to bloom. It needs to be carefully cared for. The flowerpot, soil, watering, fertilizer, temperature, light... all of these must be perfect for it to bloom."
"I have been raising it for a long time, reading a lot of information, and even went down the mountain to learn from local flower growers. I have also made many attempts, but I have not succeeded in making it bloom."
This was not the first time Bai Qingyun had heard about Lin Yan's past, but compared to her glorious image of curing illnesses and saving lives in Africa, she preferred her current appearance when she sounded more vivid.
People, after looking at the high and mighty gods for too long, they need to look at the people on earth to adjust and neutralize themselves.
Lin Yan saw the anticipation in Bai Qingyun's eyes for the sequel to the story, so he deliberately whetted her appetite and asked, "Guess what happened next?"
Bai Qingyun was also curious about such a story, but he didn't think too much about it. He just reviewed some stories he had seen in the past and deduced the possible development of the story based on the plot.
"I guess, Sister Yan's master actually has research on flowers and plants, and has also done research on the flowering of the jade tree. In the end, it must be a happy ending after all the hard work,"
But Bai Qingyun knew in his heart that if it was really that simple, it would not become something unforgettable or special, especially since Lin Yan's previous preparations had exaggerated the difficulties of making the jade tree bloom.
In order to make his guess not seem too perfunctory, but really the result of his own careful consideration, Bai Qingyun continued: "It is not easy for jade trees to bloom. I don't think the petals of this jade tree are very special. Could it be that Sister Yan has found a replacement flower species and re-grafted and cultivated it to grow a new jade tree flower with a higher flowering rate?"
Compared to the initial conventional guess, Lin Yan was obviously very interested in the final guess.
When you want to share but also want to maintain some mystery, you need emotional support from people around you, and Bai Qingyun's approach is undoubtedly the best support.
Lin Yan put down the chopsticks in his hand, wiped his hands with the hot towel prepared by the servant, and sat on the sofa beside him.
If he chatted with his family at home, he would not care about the time, place and occasion. Even if he was at the Ye family, even if he was at the dinner table with his elders, he would inevitably talk about some company matters. Of course, the most talked about topic recently was their marriage.
In a large family, although there is a rule of "don't talk while eating or sleeping", it is mostly a etiquette that is maintained when outsiders are present, thus demonstrating everyone's demeanor.
But usually, when the whole family is at home, they just sit in silence at the dinner table. Isn’t that kind of life pure distortion?
At least in Lin Yan's opinion, there are only two possibilities. One is that the family spends more time together and can talk about almost everything. The second is that the family is not harmonious, and the conflicts are not just internal ones, but are all open and aboveboard, so even at the dinner table, they are disgusted with each other.
Her Lin family, her biological family, belongs to the latter.
At least every time Lin Yan sat at the Lin family's dining table, he was either watching his younger sister Lin Yu, who lived in the Lin family instead of him, making trouble to show how favored she was in the Lin family, or listening to the suffocating family rules of the big family by Lin's father and mother to show the prominence of the Lin family.
But it is obvious that his own ability is enough to surpass the Lin family's status. If he says that he is alone and it doesn't mean anything, then the Ye family, which is many levels higher than the Lin family, will not mention such rules. They will only use them on the weaker party. Because of Lin Yu, they can completely ignore them.
As for everyone in the Ye family, their manners are like those of natural aristocrats. They stay close to acquaintances and maintain courtesy with strangers. In short, their rules are different from those of the Lin family, which cannot distinguish between relatives of the family.
But these rituals are passed down from ancient times. Even though the history of Bai Qingyun's world is different from the history of her world, she also found that there are still many similarities in the trajectories of life.
This etiquette is one of them.
Most modern etiquette is derived from ancient etiquette by simplifying it. If this is the case, the etiquette in Bai Qingyun's world will only be more strict.
Even if it is as simple as not talking while eating or sleeping, we must do it to the extreme.
She didn't know the exact details, but at least she had to do her best within her cognitive ability, which was also a kind of respect for Bai Qingyun.
Just like the natural closeness that arose from her only two meetings with Bai Qingyun, her courtesy was also something she did subconsciously.
Lin Yan sat on the sofa, sitting properly, not even crossing her legs as she usually did when working. Her legs were bent obediently. Maybe the air conditioner in the ward was turned on low, so she covered her slightly exposed knees with a small blanket. Apart from that, there was nothing else.
"Sister's guess is indeed very novel. Many plants today have been artificially grafted. Many plants that had low reproduction rates in the past can now adapt to more variable weather changes. Even plants that needed professional gardeners to cultivate in the past can now be raised by many ordinary families."
"As people's lives become more affluent, more and more people are starting to take care of flowers and plants at home. While cultivating their sentiments, they can also green the air environment at home. Even the people living in it will generally feel more soothed. Compared with those expensive psychological counseling, this is a cheap and cost-effective activity."
Bai Qingyun raised an eyebrow and looked at Lin Yan's proper sitting posture during the interview. It was completely different from the way he wolfed down the food just now. There was even a sense of intimacy in this propriety that made people unable to help but get close to him. It was a bit like the demeanor of a lady from a wealthy city, and at the same time, it also had a bit of the warmth of a country boy.
She looked at Lin Yan. Even she herself didn't realize that her usual loud and careless manner had unconsciously become gentle tonight: "I guess, Sister Yan's next sentence will be 'but...' or something like that."
Obviously, the development of the story was not as Bai Qingyun expected, otherwise Lin Yan would not have taken the time to explain the rationality of her guess.
But it was precisely because of Lin Yan's explanation that the frustration caused by the fact that his guesses were not wrong was completely dispelled.
At least, this possibility exists and is reasonable, but it doesn't fit the outline of this story.
"Sister Qingyun is really smart!" Lin Yan was stingy with his praise in front of others, but always generous in front of Bai Qingyun.
Of course, only Ye Qianchen knew about this generosity.
He even felt a little jealous when he heard the praise, like a kid who didn't get any candy on Halloween, feeling aggrieved and helpless.
