Reborn as a Mortal Heiress Pampered by Big Shots-Chapter 610 - 343 He seems not capable...

After dinner, Xia Ye followed Xia Yuzheng to the greenhouse.

Xia Yuzheng had specially built a small greenhouse in the backyard, which was filled with sunshine and felt like spring year-round, specifically for nurturing delicate plants and flowers.

Among thousands of flowers, Xia Ye immediately noticed the almost withered Hongyan.

"Yeye, that’s the one," Xia Yuzheng introduced.

Although it was much withered, Xia Ye still recognized it easily.

"Did you say it’s called Hongyan?" Xia Ye asked.

Xia Yuzheng replied, "Yes, dad also saw it in an agricultural science magazine."

Xia Ye nodded, it used to be called Hongniangzi because it was indeed delicate and difficult to nurture.

The mutant plants she had transferred spiritual energy to, although rare treasures, had extremely vigorous vitality, well-developed root systems, and grew rapidly, requiring watering only once every ten to fifteen days.

But this plant was different; just moving it to another place could nearly kill it.

Xia Ye had once tried to transfer spiritual energy to let it mutate, but the next day it died due to an inability to withstand the overwhelming spiritual energy.

Still a resolute lady.

Xia Ye touched the flower leaves, but the already dried leaves crumbled at her touch: "Who did you buy this from? They must be pretty skillful to have nurtured this flower."

Upon hearing this, Xia Yuzheng’s eyes lit up, "Yeye, do you know this flower? It was given by a farm owner who was reluctant to part with it."

He smiled wryly, "Is there still hope?"

Xia Ye looked around, "Did you replace its pot later on?"

Xia Yuzheng realized, "Right, dad remembers you said cement pots were good, so I specifically switched it to a cement pot."

Xia Ye touched her chin, "This flower can’t be in a cement pot," she searched around the greenhouse, picked out a clay pot from an inconspicuous corner: "Try this one instead."

Xia Yuzheng was quite obedient to her: "Alright, alright, however you want to change it, dad will change it."

Xia Ye found a hammer: "No need, I’ll smash the original pot, you just help me hold it steady."

Xia Yuzheng was worried she might hit her hand: "Let dad smash it..."

But before he could finish, there was a crisp ’crack’ sound, the cement pot was neatly broken, and the soil splashed onto Xia Ye’s face, she casually wiped it with the back of her hand, not realizing that she was smearing it more.

Watching his daughter, whose face was smeared with soil, Xia Yuzheng’s heart suddenly softened immensely.

His beloved daughter had endured so much hardship, handled these strenuous tasks without a hint of delicacy, and even managed them with ease.

He got up, took a paper towel, wetted it with warm water, and carefully wiped the dirt off her face.

The warm and moist touch was unexpected, and as Xia Ye, who was focused on transplanting the plants, turned her head, she directly met Xia Yuzheng’s eyes filled with boundless affection.

Suddenly, Xia Yuzheng spoke, "Were you very angry with dad last year when you came home and saw that dad had adopted Yourong, were you very disappointed in dad?"

Xia Ye was not really angry, but...

"I just thought you had poor judgment."

Having a little cutie at home would have been quite lively anyway.

Xia Yuzheng sighed with a smile, "Adopting Yourong was initially your grandmother’s idea, and both your mom and I had a hard time accepting it, especially your mom, so please don’t blame her. We agreed later entirely because of the respect for your Uncle Huang. Mom and Dad never intended for Yourong to replace you, you are our daughter, the only one, irreplaceable..."

Xia Ye actually didn’t mind these things, but as Xia Yuzheng spoke sincerely, she stared at him for a while, lightly curling her lip.

Alright, since he is mom’s husband, forgive him then~

But speaking of which, Uncle Huang was indeed a good person, honest and kind, and had treated her extremely well back at the Xia Family.

It was a pity that he momentarily lost his way with Xu Qing...

"Has Uncle Huang contacted you later?" Xia Ye transplanted the plant and incidentally transferred some spiritual energy into the soil.

She had directly transferred spiritual energy to Hongniangzi before, and Hongniangzi died the next day.

This time, transferring a small amount of spiritual energy into the soil with a medium might work better, and given the circumstances, they had to try anything possible anyway.

However, when transferring the spiritual energy, if one looked closely into the soil, they would see streaks of glowing light, so Xia Ye deliberately changed the topic.

Xia Yuzheng, still supporting the plant, didn’t look into the soil as expected: "No contact at all; old Huang is very straightforward. He always felt that he had wronged the Xia Family and couldn’t face me. I called him, at first he didn’t answer, and later that number was just not used anymore."

Officially master and servant, but indeed as close as confidants.

Losing a friend with whom to share his thoughts, Xia Yuzheng always felt a void in his heart.
