[Ming Chao: Mom, send the message you just posted again.]

[Ming Chao: @Shi Wangyue @Ning Youguang, take a look at the message my mom posted. Should I find someone to handle PR?]

Shi Wangyue just joined the group, so he couldn’t see the previous messages.

The reason Ming Chao added him was to have the whole family discuss the matter together.

If this matter had nothing to do with Shi Wangyue, it would be fine.

Since it concerned Shi Wangyue, Ming Chao felt it was better to bring him in for a discussion. As someone who was going to "steal" his sister, he naturally couldn’t warmly welcome him into his family.

But he trusted his ability and intelligence.

After today’s events, he felt that his mom and Uncle Ning were too cautious in handling public issues.

...

In the future.

Standing in the kitchen, Shi Wangyue, dressed in a cotton long shirt and pants, turned off the water dispenser.

[Shi Wangyue: @Ming Chao, thank you, bro. Youyou is in the garden repotting the jasmine, so she won’t reply quickly. I’ll tell her what you said after I see it.]

Ming Jinxin’s picture hadn’t been sent yet, so he replied to Ming Chao first.

Ming Chao replied instantly: [No worries, you’ll see it anyway.]

Soon, Ming Jinxin sent the screenshot from Weibo again.

Shi Wangyue looked at the content in the picture while pouring water from the dispenser.

...

In the outdoor garden.

Ning Youguang was holding garden shears, carefully pruning the jasmine plants Shi Wangyue had just planted.

The information Shi Wangyue shared in the "Happy Little Fish Pond" wasn’t quite accurate.

In their garden, it was actually him who was repotting the jasmine.

Ning Youguang was just doing the follow-up work after he had repotted the plants —

She was responsible for pruning the excess branches of the repotted jasmine.

Repotting jasmine is a labor-intensive task.

In their household, laborious tasks were always done by Shi Wangyue.

Even if Ning Youguang was capable of doing certain tasks, as long as he was around, he wouldn’t give her the opportunity to handle them.

But what if his wife wanted to help?

Shi Wangyue would assign her some light tasks, like pruning the branches of the jasmine after repotting.

He wouldn’t even give her the chance to fertilize the plants.

"Why?" Ning Youguang was quite helpless about this.

"It’s bad for your hands." Wearing the cotton long shirt and pants his wife bought for him to garden in, Shi Wangyue explained.

July and August are the peak blooming times for jasmine.

The jasmine flowers are fragrant, snow-white, and small, growing closely together on the branches, like snow covering green leaves, appearing fresh and elegant. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Ning Youguang really liked them.

Two months ago, she bought several pots to nurture but underestimated the growth rate of the jasmine this year.

As a result, the pots initially chosen during planting were no longer suitable.

This July and August were mostly sunny.

The only two rainy days were weekdays.

On weekdays, both of them had to work and were busy, leaving no time to repot the jasmine.

Therefore, the large pots Ning Youguang had ordered online had arrived long ago, but they were left in a corner of the terrace, waiting for a timely rain.

And so, they waited until today.

In the morning, upon hearing the rain outside while lying in bed, Ning Youguang immediately excitedly got up from bed, waking Shi Wangyue too.

Rainy days are perfect for sleeping in.

When Shi Wangyue was awakened, he actually wanted to lie in a bit longer.

Finally, on this early weekend morning, they awaited the arrival of this timely rain, and Ning Youguang immediately

Pruning the jasmine branches isn’t heavy work, but it requires care and patience.

Early in the morning, after finishing breakfast, the two of them started working there.
