I became the Prime Minister's Adored Wife after Transmigrating - Chapter 79

79 Do You Like It?

The next morning, the moment Ji Zhao opened her eyes, an elegant fragrance assaulted her nose.

She raised her eyebrows in confusion. When she pushed open the door, she saw a pot of gardenias outside the door.

On the lush green leaves, there were a few pure white gardenias.

The elegant fragrance of the flowers was refreshing.

!!
Ji Zhao’s lips curled up happily. She was in a good mood.

She smiled and picked up the pot of gardenias. She carried it back to the room and placed it on the table by the window.

“Gardenias mean a lifetime of waiting.”

This sentence inadvertently appeared in Ji Zhao’s mind.

Recalling what Shen Yao said yesterday, Ji Zhao suddenly felt a strange emotion surge in her heart. That feeling was indescribable. She was a little happy and hesitant.

Ji Zhao silently closed her eyes and shook off all the messy thoughts in her mind. Then, she let out a long sigh and walked out of the room.

Just as Ji Zhao walked to the courtyard, Shen Yao suddenly appeared in front of her and asked with a smile, “When I was walking in the back of the mountain in the morning, I happened to find these gardenias. I felt that its fragrance was elegant, so I brought it home. I wonder if you like it?”

Shen Yao looked into her eyes. His tone was very casual, but the depths of his phoenix eyes were clearly shining with anticipation.

Ji Zhao nodded silently. “I like it. I also think that the fragrance of the gardenias is very elegant and refreshing.”

Hearing that she liked it, Shen Yao was very cheerful.

When their eyes met, the two of them smiled at each other.

An hour later, Ji Zhao followed behind Zhao Lanhua with a vegetable basket. The two of them went to the vegetable garden.

“Sanlang took you there once, right?” Zhao Lanhua patted Ji Zhao’s hand affectionately and said with a smile, “Although our vegetable garden is not big, our vegetable garden is a treasure land!”

“Mother, why do you say that?” Ji Zhao asked curiously.

“In the past few years, it has been drought season all year round. Even the crops in the fields are difficult to grow, let alone those delicate vegetables. However, our family is relatively lucky. Back then, when the village drew lots to divide the fields, because our vegetable garden had too little land, no one was willing to accept it. Your father was also a soft-hearted person. When he saw your aunt crying sadly, he got hot-headed and changed the vegetable garden with your aunt’s family.”

“Aunt?” Ji Zhao remembered that there was no such person in the original novel.

“Your aunt, heh…” Zhao Lanhua chuckled. The mockery in her words was self-evident. “Let’s not talk about it. Let’s go. Mother will bring you around the vegetable garden.”

When she walked into the Shen family’s vegetable garden, Ji Zhao finally understood what it meant to benefit from a disaster.

Although the Shen family’s vegetable garden was not big, there was a naturally formed well in the middle!

“The water in this well is endless!” Zhao Lanhua lowered her voice and whispered into Ji Zhao’s ear, “Because of this pond, the vegetables in our vegetable garden are of the best quality!”

Zhao Lanhua plucked a cucumber and pushed aside the weeds that covered the patio. She twisted the rope on the wooden bolt and fetched half a bucket of water.

The cucumber washed with cold well water was fragrant, crispy, and sweet!

Ji Zhao dealt with it in no time!

“Mother, what should we do now?”

“Pick chili!” Zhao Lanhua quickly smiled and said, “To make hot sauce! Ah Tao, after you taste the hot sauce made by your mother, you will understand what a delicacy is!”
