Chapter 100 Planting lotus

Cornelia stood quietly and listened to their conversation. When Su Huiqin said her name, she took a step forward and said with a smile, "Uncle, aunt, welcome to Australia."

Su Huiqin was very happy to see Cornelia coming to welcome them. She was very satisfied with Cornelia, the daughter-in-law-to-be, and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you, but I still have to ask for leave to pick us up."

Cornelia shook her head and said, "Auntie, it's not troublesome at all, this is what I should do."

Su Huiqin smiled even happier. She took out a box from her bag, handed it to Cornelia, and said, "This is a gift we bought for you in the capital. Open it and see if you like it."

Cornelia took the box, opened it and took a look. It was a beautiful platinum necklace.

Su Huiqin said: "I don't know how to choose jewelry, but I feel that this necklace should look good on you, and I don't know if it suits your heart."

Cornelia said quickly: "It's a beautiful necklace, I like it very much, thank you auntie, thank you uncle."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and said to Tang Ming, "Honey, help me bring it."

"Okay." Tang Ming took out the necklace from the box, walked behind Cornelia, and put it on Cornelia's neck.

Su Huiqin was very happy to see this scene. Regardless of whether Cornelia really liked the necklace, as long as Cornelia could accept their intentions, it was enough.

Cornelia turned around in front of Tang Ming and asked, "Honey, am I pretty with this necklace?"

"Very beautiful." Tang Ming was embarrassed to show affection to Cornelia in front of his parents, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "Cornelia, I haven't introduced you yet, this is my nephew named Tang Xiaoyu."

"Hi, Auntie, you can just call me Xiaoyu." Cornelia is only three or four years older than Tang Xiaoyu, but Tang Xiaoyu has to call her Aunt obediently because of her seniority.

Cornelia showed a friendly smile and said, "Hi Xiaoyu, welcome to Australia."

After introducing them, Tang Ming said: "Okay, stop talking here, let's go, let's go back to the ranch."

They came to the parking lot with their things, put them in the trunk, got in the car, and drove to the ranch.

The road back to the ranch is sparsely populated, and various animals are rampant on the road. This is a scenery that cannot be seen in China. Tang Ming and Cornelia often see it, so it is not novel at all. Tang Jianguo and Su Huiqin have also seen it several times , Lost the freshness, but for Tang Xiaoyu who came to Australia for the first time, he found it very interesting. He would bark excitedly when he saw a deer, and he was even happier when he saw kangaroos jumping around.

Tang Ming turned around and smiled, "I'll make you some kangaroo meat when I go back."

Tang Xiaoyu asked curiously: "Uncle, is kangaroo meat still edible?"

"Of course I can eat it." Tang Ming recalled the taste of kangaroo meat, and said, "Kangaroo meat tastes similar to beef, but it's not as tender as beef, and it's also very smelly. If it's not cooked well, it's really hard to eat."

After Tang Ming finished speaking, Tang Xiaoyu shook his head quickly and said, "Then I won't eat."

Tang Ming said with a smile: "I said that if it's not delicious, it won't taste bad. When you taste it, you'll know."

Talking and laughing all the way, the atmosphere was very good. When Tang Ming drove, he could not feel the passage of time. He only felt that he arrived at the ranch not long after leaving the airport.

Getting out of the car, Tang Xiaoyu looked at the villa in shock, and after a while he came back to his senses and said, "Uncle, this is where you live, it's so big and luxurious."

Tang Ming smiled and said, "It's okay, let's go, let's go in."

Carrying their things into the villa, they went directly to the second floor. Tang Jianguo and Su Huiqin still lived in the original house. Tang Ming arranged Tang Xiaoyu's bedroom next to his parents' bedroom.

"Wow, the bedroom is so big." Entering the bedroom, Tang Xiaoyu exclaimed again.

Tang Ming said: "There is a separate bathroom in the room, take a shower first, rest for a while, and go downstairs to eat later."

Tang Xiaoyu said, "Got it, uncle."

Tang Ming went out, closed the door by the way, and went back to his room, where he saw Cornelia hugging Xiaobai.

Tang Ming said: "Honey, you can play with Xiaobai, I'm going to cook."

Cornelia put Xiao Bai on the bed and said, "Let me help you."

"Okay." Tang Ming readily agreed.

The two of them went to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator and looked at it. Tang Ming said, "Make a beef brisket stewed with tomatoes and potatoes, make a braised chicken, make a pig..."

"Okay, okay, you are talking about meat dishes, I want to eat vegetarian dishes." Tang Ming was interrupted by Cornelia before he could finish speaking.

Tang Ming nodded and said, "Okay then, you think about what you want to eat first, I'll catch a chick and I'll be back soon."

Tang Ming came to the poultry house, took a lot of effort to catch a chick, and when he carried it back, he thought about it, walked to the small pier by the lake, took out a fishing rod from Xiahe Cave, hung it on the The bait was thrown into the lake, and a few minutes later, a big carp weighing four to five catties was hooked. Tang Ming returned to the house with the chicken and the carp.

Walking to the kitchen, I saw Su Huiqin and Cornelia busy inside, and said, "Mom, you've been on a plane all day, go back and rest, let Cornelia and I cook."

"It's okay, I won't be tired from cooking, so give me the things, and you don't have to worry about it." Su Huiqin took the chicken and carp from Tang Ming, and pushed Tang Ming out of the kitchen.

Tang Ming walked into the living room helplessly, took out his notebook and watched a movie for a while, and suddenly thought of the lotus seeds he bought a few days ago and put them in Xiahe Cave. up.

After going out to the koi pond behind the villa, the koi saw Tang Ming approaching and thought he was about to be fed, so they all swam over and opened their mouths to wait for the food. Come out with a bucket of fish food and sprinkle it into the pond one by one.

The koi scrambled, the bucket of fish food was all scattered, and the koi were full, so they dispersed.

Tang Ming sent the bucket back to Xiahe Dongtian, took out the lotus seeds and a few pieces of sandpaper, ground the shell of the lotus seeds, and threw them into the koi pond where the water level was relatively shallow. The water level in the middle of the koi pond was too deep. Not suitable for lotus growth.

Normally, besides breaking the shell, planting lotus requires many steps, such as soaking the seeds, but for Tang Ming, those steps are too troublesome. With pond water in hand, he doesn't worry about whether the lotus will germinate.

Tang Ming sat by the edge of the koi pond, ground a lotus seed, and threw it into the pond.

By the time his family asked him to go back for dinner, he had already thrown hundreds of lotus seeds into the koi pond. As for how many of these seeds would survive and how many lotus trees would grow, it is unknown.

However, Tang Ming believes that as long as he throws some lotus seeds into the koi pond every day, the koi pond will soon be full of lotus. It is more beautiful and becomes a scene of the ranch.
