“Little Jun, don’t change the topic, A’Jing had prepared some gifts.” Shi Xiuhua can’t wait to see what present Su Jing gives.
“Oh, he has prepared so many gifts. The guy is good.” Shi Guangjun smiled as he spoke.
“These are only small gifts.” Su Jing replied modestly. Apart from Shi Xiuhua, Shi Qing’s family looked very good. Su Jing picked up the largest box and handed it to Shi Chaoqun, saying, “Grandpa, This is for you. “
“Thank you.” Shi Chaoqun chuckled and took it.
“Be careful, it’s a bit heavy.” Su Jing confirmed Shi Chaoqun’s grip was firm before he let go.
“What is it, open it and see.” Shi Xiuhua said.
“Yeah let’s take a look.” Shi Guangjun is also curious, but he is obviously not thinking about anything else, he is purely curious. Others did not speak, but they were equally curious. After all, they saw the extraordinary tea, honey, and fruits brought in by Su Jing, and these gifts were specially prepared by Su Jig for them, they have a feeling that these gifts would be far from the usual. Everyone wants to open these gifts to look at them.
“Then I’ll open it.” Seeing everyone so curious, Shi Chaoqun opened the package, and then he sighed in surprise. Others have to raise their heads to look at it. In the middle of the box, there is actually a flower pot. Above the flower pot is a plant. The fleshy leaves are arranged in a compact rosette shape. The leaves are thick and full, and the upper half is translucent and crystal. It looked so good that people can not help but want to take a bite out of it.
“Wow! It’s so beautiful!” The comely-looking girl could not help but marvel as she saw the plant.
“What is this?” Shi Yun and his cousin’s eyes widened. Shi Yue, Shi Xiuhua, Shi Guanglu, Shi Guangjun, and others were also surprised. Although they didn’t recognize the plant, what they did realize that this plant must be extraordinary. They weren’t even sure whether it was a plant or a jade tree.
“It’s just …” Mu Ting thoughtfully.
“Wow!” Shi Xiuhua’s son-in-law suddenly stood up and he looked at the plant in shock, and he couldn’t believe his eyes.
“Why are you behaving like this, isn’t it just a potted plant.” Shi Xiuhua glared at his son-in-law.
“This … this …” Her son-in-law was excited, but after Shi Xiuhua glared at him, he tried to pretend to be calm. However, it was obviously difficult for him to pretend, and his eyes could not help but peep at the potted plant.
“Oh, A’Jing, you have a good heart, Qingqing tells me that you especially like to raise potted plants recently? But, what is this beautiful plant.” Shi Chaoqun smiled kindly, he had seen Su Jing giving the Camellia Euphlebia to Shi Qing and he is very fond of it, but of course, it is impossible for him to rob it from his granddaughter, and he can enjoy it every day at home.
“This is …” Su Jing was about to explain but he was interrupted.
“I remembered it.” Mu Ting suddenly interrupted Su Jing and said, “This is Haworthia Cooperi, right?”
“Yes, uncle has a good eye.” Su Jing nodded.
“What is Haworthia Cooperi?” Shi Yue asked. Others were puzzled as this is the first time they had heard this name.
“This is a variant in Haworthia species, Haworthia is a species in the Succulent Plant. It belongs to the Agave Genus and Aphodelaceae Family. Haworthia is small and exquisite, with crystal clear appearance and rich in variety. As one of the most popular small succulent item species, Haworthia Cooperi is one of the more classic and valuable varieties. However, I have never seen such beautiful Haworthia like this.” Mu Ting explained.
“How expensive is this?” Shi Chaoqun couldn’t help asking. He liked the plant at a glance, but if it was too expensive, he would be too embarrassed to accept it, Su Jing would certainly won’t mind but he won’t like to hurt the relationship between the two couples.
“I have only recently come into contact with these types of things and I don’t know very well, but it should cost about tens of thousands.” Mu Ting said and his words caused everyone to suck in a breath of cold air, such a small potted plant is actually worth tens of thousands yuan. Shi Guangjun and Shi Yue thought secretly that this A’Jing was really generous.
Shi Xiuhua opened her mouth as she could not believe it. She didn’t feel anything amazing about this potted plant, but she noticed the shocked look of her son-in-law’s face and heard Mu Ting’s words again, so she didn’t dare to deny it.
“Then I can’t accept it.” Shi Chaoqun wanted to wrap the gift again to give it back.
“Grandpa, I planted this in my house. I don’t spend any money on it and there are many more.” Su Jing said, he spoke lightly and other people didn’t think anything, only Shi Xiuhua’s son-in-law’s mouth pumped fiercely and smoke almost came out of him.
“Grandpa, A’Jing has kind intentions, just accept it.” Shi Qing also said, when she was very young, her grandmother died. When her parents went out to work, she was basically braised by her grandpa, so she is very close to her grandpa.
Shi Chaoqun heard Shi Qing say this, he hesitated and said, “Well, then I will accept it.” After accepting it, he couldn’t help showing a satisfied smile. He had no plan to convert this Haworthia into money but he planned to raise it as a potted plant.
‘By the way, I should ask the Internet. My brother-in-law only recently came in contact with Haworthia and he may not know the market at all. Maybe he is only worth a few hundred yuan.’ Shi Xiuhua rolled her eyes and she secretly took a photo of Haworthia Cooperi. She searched the Internet and found a professional plant forum called “Xianzhen Circle”. She posted a post asking about the value of this Haworthia Plant. She also said that it was a gift from her niece’s boyfriend when he came to see her parents. Out of her expectations, the forum exploded, and two or three members were thrilled with this knowledge:
“Wow, such a big pot of Haworthia Cooperi.”
“The plant shape is compact and the leaves are full, the luster is translucent, and it glows like a jade… This Haworthia Cooperi looks too good!”
“Are you sure this was a gift from your niece’s boyfriend while he meeting with her parents and not a sneak shot at a large Haworthia exhibition?”
“How much is this Haworthia worth?” Shi Xiuhua was dumbfounded after seeing this excitement but she still asked.
“At least tens of thousands.”
“I’ve seen the top class that sold 100,000 Yuan, but regardless of size or appearance, that plant was incomparable to this one, this plant will at least sell for 100,000 or maybe even more.”
“With such world treasures, if a rich man wants it, it would be no surprise if he spent more than that at an auction.”
Shi Xiuhua is completely dumbfounded. Such a potted plant is worth more than tens of thousands, and can be sold for more than 100,000 Yuan? She glanced at Su Jing secretly, thinking if this guy didn’t know the value of this Haworthia, or whether he was just this generous to out 100,000 yuan without blinking. One must know that this is just one of the four gifts and it is already more precious than anything. This guy also said that he had many such plants at home, was he speaking the truth.
Of course, Shi Xiuhua certainly wouldn’t say the value of this Haworthiahere, but she deliberately stopped mentioning it. At this time, Su Jing had sent two other gifts to Shi Guanglu and Liu Xuanfeng, and Shi Xiuhua’s attention suddenly turned away towards them.
