Chapter 242 - 238: The Schemes of the Little Wife! [-17 Updates]
——————
"What’s wrong?" Xie Jingchen instantly sensed that his wife Shanni was struggling to hide her astonishment, her expression somewhat awkward.
"Wood..." In fact, Shanni didn’t know how to tell her own husband that she had experienced the supernatural.
Then, she had to reluctantly accept that her very existence was already quite supernatural, and any other bizarre incident couldn’t compare to her ’supernatural’ self!
"According to the old monks in this monastery, this peach blossom has been here for sixty or seventy years..."
"Oh..." Shanni shrugged indifferently, "Then this peach tree has really held on for a long time. A regular peach tree would be good if it could live for twenty or thirty years... This guy, actually might have lived for sixty or seventy years, er, well, it’s over a hundred years now, it’s really very ’holy’!"
Hearing his wife’s troubled tone, Xie Jingchen wrapped his arms around her and explained:
"Unfortunately, though, despite how beautifully this old peach tree blooms, the fruit it bears is really bitter, and even if you ferment it into fruit wine, it tastes sour and stinky, and is simply undrinkable."
"That really is a pity..." Shanni nodded, the painful clamor of the peach tree in her ears... No wonder the peaches it bore were bitter!
"Right, what’s the deal with that legend?" Knowing well that the Holy Peach Tree bore bitter fruit, why would such a beautiful legend still be passed around!
