Chapter 163 Planting Strawberries
Chapter 163 Planting Strawberries
I saw that it was a three-story building with bricks and stones on the outside.
The overall design is avant-garde and fashionable. Although the objects in the living room are covered with a layer of dust, they are all old furniture.
Li Xiaoxuan introduced Li Youquan enthusiastically. She pointed to the photos on the wall, most of which were photos of her and her parents.
"Aunt, do you like this house?"
Li Xiaoxuan observed Li Youquan's expression and asked expectantly.
Hearing this, Li Youquan turned his gaze to Li Huifen.
"As long as Auntie likes it."
Li Huifen looked around and sighed to Li Xiaoxuan.
"Xiao Xuan, this house is nice, but it's expensive. More importantly, it's inconvenient for our Honghong to go to school, and there's not even anyone nearby to buy groceries. I think we shouldn't buy it."
Li Xiaoxuan smiled and said to Li Huifen: "Aunt, if you like this house, you can come and live here when you have nothing to do. Although your courtyard is convenient, it is definitely not as quiet as here."
"That's so embarrassing, I think we should just forget it!"
"Youquan, we are going home. Sorry to bother Miss Li."
Li Huifen knew that Li Youquan wanted to move out of the courtyard house, but she thought the house was valuable and didn't want Li Youquan to spend so much money, so she urged Li Youquan to leave.
When Li Xiaoxuan saw Li Huifen was about to leave, she quickly grabbed her.
"Aunt, now that you are here, don't leave in a hurry. I will show you the backyard. There are many fruits and vegetables planted in the backyard. You can take some back."
Seeing how enthusiastic she was, Li Huifen and Li Youquan couldn't refuse and followed her into the backyard.
Sure enough, a vegetable garden was opened up in the backyard, and the fruits and vegetables here seemed to be of better quality than those grown elsewhere.
Li Huifen couldn't help but admire: "Xiaoxuan, I didn't expect that you could grow these fruits and vegetables so well at such a young age, especially the strawberries, which look much bigger than those grown elsewhere."
Li Xiaoxuan waved her hand.
"Aunt, how could I know these? Grandpa uses these for research. He has hired people to study how to make fruits grow faster and better. As for me, I just come over occasionally to take a look and pick and eat them."
"I see. It seems your grandfather also studies crops. He really has a wide range of interests."
When Li Youquan saw the fruits and vegetables in front of him, he thought about taking these strawberries and watermelons back and putting the seeds into the planting space. He was afraid that the things grown would be better than what he saw in front of him.
After Li Xiaoxuan finished speaking, she personally packed a large box of strawberries for Li Huifen.
A few people didn't stay for long, but got on the car.
"Aunt, come to my house for dinner tonight?"
"You go ahead, I won't go."
Seeing that his aunt was in a bad mood, Li Youquan said to Li Xiaoxuan.
"Forget it, I'll send my aunt back later."
"Brother Youquan, you have to come home with me, otherwise my grandfather will be angry."
Li Youquan had no choice but to nod.
I took a strawberry, closed my eyes, and planted the strawberry seeds into the planting space, just waiting for the harvest.
He tasted the strawberry.
The strawberries grown by scientists are different from those grown by others.
After a while, the car drove to the courtyard and Li Huifen got out.
The driver helped Li Huifen carry the strawberries into the house.
Arrived at Li’s home as promised.
If it weren't for his respect for Mr. Li as a scientist, Li Xiaoquan would really want to run away when faced with Li Xiaoxuan's enthusiasm.
Li Youquan felt that Mr. Li would be useful sooner or later. After he met Wu Chuanshui and reported to him, he might be able to ask Mr. Li to be a consultant.
After a meal together, the two of them chatted very smoothly.
After the meal, Mr. Li insisted that Li Xiaoxuan give Li Youquan a ride.
There was already a driver sending Li Xiaoxuan off, and when she got in the car, it was hard to tell who was sending whom off.
Two people sat side by side in the back seat of the car.
Li Xiaoxuan suddenly lowered her head shyly and whispered to Li Youquan.
"Brother Youquan, do you know what my grandfather said to me just now?"
"He said, it would be nice if I could marry someone like you in the future."
Hearing this, Li Youquan said to her jokingly.
"Your grandfather just thinks you are too playful and thinks that someone like me can't control you, but you are an adult now and don't need to be controlled by anyone, right?"
Li Xiaoxuan denied what Li Youquan said.
"Brother Youquan, although I am an adult now, I do agree with what grandpa said. I think when I find a partner to marry in the future, I want to find someone like you!"
"What do you know at such a young age? People like me have to go to the battlefield. If there is a war in the future, I will probably be on the front line. Defending our country is our lifelong mission!"
Li Youquan tried hard to distance himself from Li Xiaoxuan, but it seemed to be of no use at all.
The more this little girl talked, the more excited she became.
"Brother Youquan, I want to defend our country with you, and I want to go to the front line. Does your intelligence department need anyone else? Why not let me in? I want to be your colleague."
"What do you know at such a young age? You should just focus on your university studies. The Intelligence Department is not the place for you."
Seeing that Li Youquan rejected her so bluntly, Li Xiaoxuan couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
"What about Bai Ling? Brother Youquan, I'll tell you the truth. Ever since you shot an enemy spy in the street last time, I've been asking Lou Xiao'e about you. I know you have a girlfriend. Are you guys in a good relationship?"
Hearing this, Li Youquan was also thinking silently in his heart.
Speaking of Bai Ling, would she be angry if she knew that I didn't take her to Xu Damao's wedding?
This means that she already has someone else in her heart, and that person is someone she can never surpass.
Because the other person is a dead person, and once a person dies, his or her memory will be engraved in the heart forever.
Li Youquan came back to his senses and said to Li Xiaoxuan.
"Our relationship...is pretty good."
Li Xiaoxuan looked unconvinced and asked.
"Brother Youquan, you are lying. If you are in a good relationship, why don't you bring her to the wedding today?"
"She has something to deal with at the office today so she doesn't have time to come."
"Anyway, I still don't believe it."
Li Youquan didn't say anything else, but looked out the window.
The car finally drove to the courtyard, and Li Youquan felt that the time he spent with Li Xiaoxuan seemed a little long.
This little woman is a real chatterbox.
After finally arriving, Li Youquan got out of the car, waved to her, and walked inside with big strides.
"Brother Youquan, can I come to the courtyard to find you?" Li Xiaoxuan shouted loudly at Li Youquan's back.
Li Youquan's back disappeared from her sight early.
When I entered the house, I saw Li Huifen making strawberry jam in the kitchen.
When he saw Li Youquan coming in, he said something mysteriously.
"You're back. I think Miss Li must like you."
