Even though he said it was a little garden, it actually wasn't sreenhouses that were planted full with vegetation There wasn't thatspace either

After ju Tan was in no rush to juot close to one of the greenhouses, he ju the sound of a ”thump”

Professor Lan, as presently inside busying hirily said: ”Can you jump from some other place? If you jureenhouse early!”

Zheng Tan paid no attention to hireenhouse There were several wooden crates piled up there, conveniently in the shape of stairs, and Zheng Tan jumped down one by one

Zheng Tan tilted his head and looked inside the greenhouse Because it was transparent, he could see rather clearly

Lilies?

They're yellow ones too!

Zheng Tan had never seen lilies that were yellow in the past He had seen white ones though The flowers that he saw inside were fairly siirls

What was Professor Lan growing all these yellow lilies for? White ones would sell better, right?

Zheng Tan doubtfully walked inside At the entrance of the greenhouse, there was a wooden crate packed with so Tan didn't pay that much attention He was presently fixated on the yelloers that were inside

Professor Lan as busy gardening with a trowel turned around and looked, and called out: ”Be careful, don't mess up those yellow cauliflower!”

Yellow cauliflower?

So they weren't lilies?

Zheng Tan flicked his ears Towards these things, he was a total idiot Even if he examined it from up close, he wouldn't be able to tell a difference Frankly he couldn't remember what lilies looked like anyways, and he only felt it looked somewhat similar to the kind in his memories

As Zheng Tan thought, soarden

It was a few students who had come for samples

Like other people, in front of Professor Lan, these students appeared very cautious

”Professor Lan, we scheduled an appointment with you over the phone earlier about the research of an antioxidant-type flavonoid, and we're here to collect samples”

Professor Lan didn't stand up, and he lifted a finger to point at a corner of the greenhouse ”Over there, at the places where I'veoutside the s”

”Ah, alright alright, we'll remember and we'll be careful,” a student promptly nodded and spoke

A few people cautiously arrived at the corner that Professor Lan pointed out One student who looked like he hadn't been in school for long whispered, ”So these are nepenthe flowers Why do they look like lilies?”

The hands of the other students shook, and even though they hadn't said anything, they sure enough heard Professor Lan's voice from over there

”Phyluiosperm, clade Monocotyledon, order Liliales, suborder Liliales, faenus Hemerocallis fulva, also known as yellow cauliflower Hasn't your teacher taught you this? Why would it be strange that it looks similar?”

Professor Lan's voice was very flat, but it could ry

The students were silenced, and no one else dared to casually say anything since they were afraid of being rebuked for accidentallythe plants, they deferentially bid farewell and left

Zheng Tan sat on the side, and on inside he felt rueful from the student's words froends is just yellow cauliflower? The former sounded so trendy and stylish, and in comparison ”yellow cauliflower” sounds like a na Tan had never linked these tords together before

After those students left, Professor Lan stood up and reenhouse As he walked out, he picked up the wooden crate by the entrance

”鲜黄花菜的脂肪和维生素C含量高于干黄花菜,但是蛋白质和其他微量元素的含量却低于干黄花菜,我还是喜欢吃干的。在我们老家那儿这东西倒是多,但在这城市里,难啊。黑炭,我跟你说啊……”

”The fat and vitareater than that in dry cauliflower, but it's protein and other trace element content is lower than that in dry cauliflower, so I still prefer eating the dried ones At my old place, there was a lot of this stuff, but in the city, it's hard to find Ash, I' you…”

Blah blah blah blah

These retired professor had never fixed their bad habit of liking to lecture others Even though he was talking to a cat that couldn't understand anything, he could still talk for a long ti you,” he knew that Professor Lan was the sa mode

Zheng Tan played around at Professor Lan's little garden, and left around lunchtime

While the sun was still shi+ning brightly, when Zheng Tan returned to the Eastern Residence, he just happened to see Yellowy lying on the grass, halfway in the shade and halfway in the sun What a beside Yellowy Purring, Yellowy hugged it and licked its fur That rascal wasn't purring

The heck? Since when did that bastard with a 囧 face that was being hugged by that fool Yellowy come to East Campus?! How come he had never seen it before?

Before Zheng Tan could finish being astonished, another one giddily ran up from not far away

Zheng Tan: ”……”

Who the hell were these bastards that had lopsided faces like they had been punched by someone?
