Chapter 186 Envy
Unlike China, although it snowed in Mengsha Country, there were still a lot of people going out. Fortunately, although there was snow, the roads were basically cleared. Lu Yao drove Ge Fu to the fresh cut flower shop he had inquired about.
Ge Fu was dressed a little warmly today, with thermal underwear and a cashmere sweater, and a thick white long down jacket that reached her ankles. She also wore a khaki knitted hat and a scarf, and a pair of unsightly but very thick snow boots on her feet.
Therefore, she grumbled a little when she got off the bus.
"I look so ugly, like a bear."
"You underestimated the bear. I've never seen such a slim bear." Lu Yao's words were not meant to be a lie. Although Ge Fu was tall, she had a small frame and not much flesh on her body. Even if she wore a lot of clothes, she didn't look bloated.
Ge Fu was very pleased to hear this. She took his hand and walked towards the store while saying, "Fresh cut flowers alone are not perfect. Let's go buy some perfume later. There seems to be a perfume street nearby. I want to buy more and send some to relatives and friends in China. The New Year is coming soon, so I can put some in the New Year gifts in the mansion."
Lu Yao didn't say anything. Since he had brought her out, he didn't really expect her to come back just to buy some flowers.
But perfume... Even if I buy it, Zhen Niang and Doctor Zhou won't let me wear it. But I don't need to say this myself, as long as she is happy now.
This fresh cut flower shop is indeed worthy of its reputation. Although it is located in Mengsha Country, the proprietress is actually a Japanese. She wears a light pink dress and has her hair tied up. Her round face reveals a pair of small fangs when she smiles. She is both cute and friendly.
Ge Fu was wearing a scarf, covering half of her face. The proprietress came up to greet her and asked, "Ma'am, is there anything you need?"
Ge Fu looked around. This place was quite large, with many varieties of flowers. In addition to fresh cut flowers, there were also some hydroponic potted plants and everlasting flowers.
She originally came for the fresh cut flowers, but now she became interested in everlasting flowers.
These everlasting flowers are placed in glass covers and arranged into various shapes, including doll puppies, alpacas, unicorns, Ferris wheels, little white rabbits, Hello Kitty, little bears, elk... Each one is exquisite and beautiful, and of course, very expensive.
Ge Fu immediately changed her mind, "I want to buy everlasting flowers and mail them back to give to my friends in China." She had never paid attention to this aspect before, and only thought that everlasting flowers were fresh flowers that were preserved forever. Who would have thought that there would be so many varieties.
Not to mention others, Xiao Chen definitely likes it.
Ge Fu picked a lot of preserved flowers. There were so many that they couldn't fit in the car, so she asked the store clerk to deliver them to her home. Of course, she also picked a lot of fresh cut flowers. She has always been used to placing fresh flowers at home.
The boss lady was obviously very happy to meet such a big customer, and she even gave her several hydroponic potted plants.
"These two pots of hydroponic strawberries are starting to bear fruit. You can take them home and eat the strawberries in a week." The proprietress said with a smile.
Ge Fu was a little surprised, "You still sell this?"
The proprietress was a little embarrassed and said, "I'm not selling this. I grow it myself to feed my children."
"It's for the children to eat...you should keep it for yourself." Ge Fu said quickly.
"It's okay, it's okay." The lady boss said, "There are too many plants to divide. We have a lot at home. It won't matter if we take two pots away."
Since she said so, Ge Fu didn't hesitate.
On the way to Perfume Street, Ge Fu said happily to Lu Yao: "I wonder if hydroponic strawberries are sweet. If they are delicious, we can grow some ourselves."
She tilted her head and said, "After the baby is born, you can also take her to plant fruits together. I remember that when I was a child, I envied the fruits grown by other families."
That was a lifetime ago.
Lu Yao avoided her gaze, a little afraid to see her so happy.
Gofort had great ambitions to go to Perfume Street, but the reality was that she backed out as soon as she reached the street corner.
"No, the smell is too strong. I feel like vomiting." Ge Fu said, covering his mouth.
Lu Yao raised his eyebrows, "How about... we go back?"
No! Never go back!
Although Ge Fu didn't say anything, his eyes showed this meaning.
Lu Yao thought for a moment and said, "Should I take you to Wutong Avenue for a walk? Or should we go buy clothes and jewelry?"
Before coming here, he also did some research. Mengsha Country is full of fashion and art. Major global luxury brands have stores here, and many of their headquarters are here.
However, he was not sure whether Ge Fu was interested in such a place. After all, he was the kind of person who could have new products from major luxury brands delivered to his home while he sat at home.
It's not that Ge Fu is not interested. Although those brands will send new models every quarter, they will not send all of them, at least the low-end and mid-range products will not appear in front of her. But in fact, Ge Fu is not very particular about this. As long as the design is good, she will buy and wear the low-end and mid-range products.
Moreover, some niche brand products can often give people surprises.
but……
She shook her head and said, "Let's go for a walk on Wutong Avenue." Those luxury brand stores usually spray a little perfume. She didn't think it was a big deal in the past, but now she can't stand it.
When they arrived at the place, Lu Yao got out of the car first, and then directly carried Ge Fu down from the passenger seat.
Ge Fu was a little embarrassed, "I'm not that fragile."
"I know." I just want to hug you.
Because it was snowing, drops of melted snow would fall from the branches of the sycamore tree. Lu Yao thoughtfully took out a big umbrella from the car and took Ge Fu for a walk.
Ge Fu was particularly easy to satisfy at this moment, and felt very good to be able to breathe the air outside.
"Tell me if you feel tired, don't try to be stubborn." Lu Yao said softly.
"Yeah." Ge Fu leaned on him and pointed to the road on one side and said, "Look, there are many people like us."
There were indeed many couples here, and they even saw a pregnant woman like Ge Fu. However, her belly was already very big, and she was walking with her feet turned outward. Her husband next to her carefully supported her waist and whispered something.
Lu Yao looked at them with some envy, wondering if their children would ever have the chance to grow up to that age.
Ge Fu stared at the pregnant woman for a long time, and couldn't help but mutter to Lu Yao: "Will a big belly be so ugly? If I become a fat duck in the future, you can't laugh at me."
She couldn't help but feel a little worried. As someone who had been beautiful for two lifetimes, she really couldn't imagine herself ever being so imageless one day.
Looking at her acting so childishly and coquettishly, Lu Yao reached out and touched her long hair that was exposed, wondering how it was possible.
How can I give up.
In my eyes, you will always be the most beautiful one.
