Chapter 94: Planting
Afterwards, Xia Yue and he went outside the courtyard, took out a peach tree, a grape vine, and a pastel Camellia and placed them inside the courtyard.
"Shall we plant them now?" Xia Yue looked at the seedlings they brought out and asked Professor Hao.
"This peach tree is at least five years old, we can’t prop it up. The grape vine, however, can be planted first, and we can just conduct our research here. As for the Camellia, I’ll ask Professor Yuan to come out and plant it in the neighboring courtyard." After a moment of silence looking at the peach tree, Professor Hao said to Xia Yue.
"Okay, but what do you plan to do with this peach tree?" Xia Yue asked, pointing at the peach tree.
"Leaving it here for one morning should be fine. I’ll ask Captain Yan to find some people to plant it, or wait for my students to return and get them to do it." Professor Hao said.
"Alright, then call Professor Yuan to come get the Camellia. It’s probably more delicate, I’m afraid it won’t survive if we plant it later." Xia Yue looked at the Camellia and said.
"Okay, you wait here for a bit, I’ll go get her." Professor Hao nodded, and headed out.
After he left, Xia Yue sat down on the steps to wait for Professor Hao to return.
Five minutes later, Professor Hao returned with Professor Yuan.
Xia Yue immediately stood up and walked over.
"Good morning, Professor Yuan." Xia Yue greeted Professor Yuan with a smile.
