Manbao and Bai Shan both uttered a surprised "Eh" in unison.
Yin Huo laughed and said, "Not to mention other families, but in our house, even my grandmother, who rarely goes out, makes it a point to visit the flower market every spring and fall. If she finds flowers she likes, she'll buy them. The ones that are rare, she'll also purchase. It's actually rarer for her to keep flowers that are bought and brought as offerings by the servants."
Though Yin Huo didn't manage household affairs and was indifferent to most things, there were certain events that occurred annually, which he, therefore, remembered.
Seeing the young master and his company speaking so cheerfully, Changshou, who was standing nearby, added, "There are also familiar florists who, if they cultivate a new variety or an exceptionally beautiful flower, will deliver them directly to our doorstep. Old Madam and the young ladies, if they see and like these flowers, often choose to keep them."
