Chapter 615 - 309 Bloodline_3
He had said that he was accompanying his sister to visit Old Lady Liang today, but in reality, he simply wanted to steal a few more glances at Huang Jinyu from the Liang Family. Also, he didn’t want to listen to the constant nagging of the Great-Grandmother. Why should a young master like himself be bossed around by women? It truly undermines his own dignity and boosts the ambitions of women!
After they had finished the cake, Huang Jinyu had someone bring out the small grass-woven baskets and boxes he had bought for the young ladies. Sure enough, the girls were delighted and couldn’t put them down, all except for Qian Yixiu.
The group then chatted and laughed for a while, watched a monkey performance, and seeing that the old lady was getting tired, they took their leave.
Upon leaving the main house, Liang Jinzhao suggested going to his family’s training ground with the House of Animals to play. Since Monkey Brother had played with Liang Jinzhao many times since it was young, and with him watching, Monkey Brother wouldn’t cause any trouble, so Qian Yixiu nodded in agreement.
Liang Jinzhao whispered to her, "The ponds near Shangling Village on my family’s property have been dug out, could you sell me some good Golden Lotus seeds?"
The Golden Lotus was rather odd. Each generation was lighter than the one before, increasingly resembling ordinary lotus flowers. For instance, a first-generation Golden Lotus seed was from a seed directly from the Cave Sky Pool, flowering and producing seeds, which in turn were second-generation Golden Lotus seeds. Flowers from these seeds were lighter than those from the first-generation, and the scent of the seeds they produced was also not as fragrant. Seeds from the second-generation were called third-generation Golden Lotus seeds, and the flowers produced from those were even lighter than the second-generation flowers. And so on. By the sixth generation, they were indistinguishable from ordinary lotus flowers. This was the experience she had gathered after a few years of cultivating Golden Lotuses.
Qian Yixiu saw that Liang Jinyu had unspokenly led the others aside, as if she and Liang Jinzhao were sharing a secret. Although indeed this matter pertained to her family’s trade secrets and she didn’t want the others to overhear, it was not what they thought it was. Seeing the ambiguous expressions on their faces made Qian Yixiu quite annoyed. Uncle Liang was really annoying, he definitely did it on purpose.
Qian Yixiu could only nod in confusion and went over to pull Liang Jinyu by the hand.
Liang Jinyu led the young ladies to the backyard with a smile, this time including Liang Jinjing, the concubine-born daughter of the third household. The girls played lutes and flutes in the room, a very refined activity.
