Chapter 977: Xiaomei (2)
Yang Ruxin merely listened with a smile and didn’t join the conversation. Although she was quite curious about gossip, she did not wish to interfere in the affairs of Shen Yilan and her sisters.
"Look over there, that’s the Green Sepal Plum." After turning a corner, Shen Yilan pointed ahead to the left and said, "There are probably seven or eight of them, initially there were two, and later grandfather transplanted a few more here... Our Plum Blossom Cake is made with petals from these flowers..."
"Truly beautiful," Yang Ruxin praised sincerely. When spring arrives, she also planned to plant all kinds of fruit trees and flowers around her small building, so she could sit on the second-floor balcony to drink tea and enjoy the flowers. Ah, she definitely needed to plant some plum trees so that it wouldn’t be bleak in the winter.
Just at that moment, a young servant girl rushed over: "Second Miss, madam is looking for you..."
"Didn’t you say I was out admiring the plums with Xinxin?" Shen Yilan frowned.
"Madam said that the other young ladies have finished their poetry and asked for Second Miss to also go learn," the young servant girl replied respectfully.
Shen Yilan glanced at Yang Ruxin.
"You go ahead," Yang Ruxin said with a smile, "I’ll just look around a little more and then head back the way I came."
"Alright then," Shen Yilan nodded, "I’ll have Xiaomei stay with you then; just tell her if you need anything..."
Yang Ruxin glanced at the servant girl named Xiaomei and nodded slightly: "Then I’ll be in your debt."
"Miss Yang honors me too much," Xiaomei quickly responded with a respectful bow, "Just give me your orders."
Yang Ruxin nodded.
