Chapter six hundred and forty third unkind invitation
Sakai Hoshino looked in the direction of Liu Mingzhi's finger, exclaimed and trotted directly towards the large and small flower beds planted with various flowers in front of him.
"Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu, what kind of flowers are these?"
Liu Mingzhi heard Sakai Hoshino's surprised words and looked directly towards a small flowerbed in front of her.
"It looks like a cockscomb, and its flowers are bright and not vulgar, so it is called cockscomb."
"Cockscombs, Mr. Liu, if you put it this way, these flowers do look like the cockscombs on a rooster's head!"
Sakai Hoshino said softly, then trotted to another flower bed and stopped in front of it.
"Liu Jun, what kind of flower is this?"
"It looks like it's just in bud, but it's actually bright and dazzling, and it's called the golden bract."
"Where is this flower garden?"
"When autumn comes on September 8th, I will kill hundreds of flowers after they bloom, including chrysanthemums."
"What about this?"
"The Book of Songs says, "The Book of Songs" says, "The 茑 is a female daisy", which refers to these beautiful flowers in the flower garden. These flowers are one of the flowers that were presented to me by all the countries of the West a few years ago. My wife Yunqing's poem is very beautiful.
I liked this flower, so I transplanted some roots from the Royal Palace Garden and planted it in our garden.
In fact, we Dalong also have such flowers and plants, but they are not as pleasing to the eye as the flowers and plants paid tribute by the Western countries."
When Sakai Hoshino heard Mr. Liu's explanation, his delicate face nodded in wonder, and pointed at the flowerbed opposite the cypress flowerbed.
"Mr. Liu, Dalong's culture is really long-standing, and it's an eye-opener for Hoshino. What are the names of the flowers in this garden?"
"Zinnias don't have purple flowers, but they do have grass. This zinnia is both a flower and a grass. It just depends on who appreciates it.
Those who appreciate it think it is worth tens of thousands of dollars, while those who don’t like it think it is worthless. It’s just a matter of personal preference.”
Sakai Hoshino looked at Liu Mingzhi who was talking eloquently in surprise, and his beautiful eyes suddenly showed a look of wonder.
"Liu Jun, you are so powerful. In Hoshino's impression, nothing seems to be difficult for you.
No matter what it is, Mr. Liu, you can always speak clearly and clearly."
Liu Mingzhi looked at Sakai Hoshino's sigh, smiled slightly and waved his hand.
"Hoshino, I'm not as powerful as you think.
The reason why I can tell you the names of the flowers you pointed out and their origins is because I can often see them.
The more you see, the more you will understand what you don’t understand.”
Sakai Hoshino nodded and pondered for a while, then nodded in confusion.
"No matter what the reason is, Hoshino still thinks you are very powerful, Mr. Liu. Wow, these flowers are so beautiful. They are more beautiful than those cockscombs, chrysanthemums, and the zinnias you mentioned just now. Mr. Liu.
Mr. Liu, what are the names of these flowers?"
"Lagerstroemia flower."
"Lagerstroemia flower."
Sakai Hoshino whispered softly and repeated the names of flowers mentioned by Liu Mingzhi, then squatted on his knees outside the flower bed and carefully fiddled with the bright and charming flowers in front of him.
"Mr. Liu."
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"Mr. Liu, Hoshino has a heartless request. I hope Mr. Liu can agree to Hoshino's request."
Liu Mingzhi squatted silently next to Sakai Hoshino, and looked at Sakai Hoshino with a slightly raised brow, who was staring at the flowers with a look of joy in his eyes.
"Hoshino, why don't you first tell me what kind of request you have?"
Sakai Hoshino stretched out his jade hand and gently fiddled with the flowers at hand, looking at Mr. Liu who was squatting next to him with a rather tangled expression on his pretty face.
"Mr. Liu, can Hoshino pick another flower?"
Liu Mingzhi looked at the blooming flowerbed in front of him, shook his jade fan and nodded with a smile.
"Of course. If you like it, Hoshino, you can pick all the flowers in the entire garden, let alone pick a single flower."
"Mr. Liu, Hoshino thanks you for your kindness, but Hoshino is not that greedy. I only need one of them and I will be satisfied."
As soon as Sakai Hoshino finished speaking, he stretched out his jade hand and carefully cut off a flower bud and handed it to Young Master Liu and waved it.
"Liu Jun, do you look good?"
Liu Mingzhi stared blankly at Sakai Hoshino, who was turning the flowers and smiling sweetly, and nodded coldly: "It's beautiful, the flowers are beautiful, and the people are even more beautiful.
In the words of our dragon, people are more beautiful than flowers."
When Sakai Hoshino heard Mr. Liu say the words "people are more beautiful than flowers," his pretty face was both happy and shy, and he lowered his head.
"Really...really?"
"Of course it's true. Hoshino, when have you ever seen me tell lies? Don't you believe me?"
"No, no, Hoshino believes it, Hoshino believes it."
Liu Mingzhi looked at Sakai Hoshino's expression and did not continue to ask any more questions.
Liu Mingzhi now knows Sakai Hoshino's character very well, and she is worried that if she continues to ask questions, it will be counterproductive.
"Hoshino, you'd better tell me about your unkind request."
Sakai Hoshino gently inserted the flowers between his fingers into his hair, raised his eyes to look at Mr. Liu and asked softly: "Mr. Liu, when Hoshino returns to Japan, can I dig some of Mr. Liu's gardens?"
Should I take the root systems of flowers back home?
To be honest, there are too many flowers in the flower beds in front of us that Hoshino has never seen before, and Hoshino wants to take them back and plant them.
Hoshino also knew that his request might be a bit excessive, but Hoshino really liked these flowers.
Mr. Liu, Hoshino hopes you can agree to this somewhat rude request of mine.
If possible, Hoshino can use silver to buy the roots or seeds of these flowers.
Just treat Hoshino as begging you."
Liu Mingzhi looked at Sakai Hoshino's embarrassed pretty face with a blank expression, and nodded with a dumb smile.
He originally thought that Sakai Hoshino would make some excessive demands, but for a long time she just wanted to take these flowers back to Japan.
If it were any other request, I would definitely think it over carefully. But just for these flowers, I could agree without even thinking about it.
Liu Mingzhi looked at Sakai Hoshino's pleading eyes and waved his hand nonchalantly.
"Hey, I thought it was something particularly difficult. It turns out that Hoshino, you just want some roots or seeds of flowers.
No problem, I promised you.
Until Hoshino returns to Japan, you can come to my garden and bring back the flower roots or flower seeds you want to bring back to Japan."
When Sakai Hoshino heard Mr. Liu's words of agreement, a smile appeared on his pretty face.
"Really?"
Liu Mingzhi nodded happily, leaned over, cut off a flower, and inserted it into Sakai Hoshino's hair.
"Of course it is true. Hoshino, you have forgotten what I just told you. You are not joking!"
"Thank you Mr. Liu. Hoshino is really grateful to Mr. Liu."
"Hehehe, you're welcome, it's just some flowers, it doesn't really matter, let's continue walking around.
After going around for a while, it’s probably time to eat.”
