Chapter 150 Strawberries Are Ripe
"Hey, Mr. Brook brings so many strawberries to play chess today."
Mr. Brook had several chess friends to regularly play chess with. At this moment, he asked the bodyguard to walk in front of him with two big baskets of strawberries. He was very proud.
"Come on, come on... Everyone, come and taste the strawberries that my granddaughter planted by herself."
His such flamboyant tone made others think they were not strawberries, but some precious treasure.
These friends know that Mr. Brook had a granddaughter. Mr. Brook talked about his granddaughter all day long. To be honest, they were envious.
The bodyguard put down the strawberry basket, and several elder men gathered around and gasped in amazement.
"Mr. Brook, you're going too far. Nancy is so young, how could she know how to plant it?"
Mr. Brook was obviously more satisfied, but he still stay calm.
"Believe it or not, my granddaughter not only grows strawberries, but also grapes, peaches and plums in the villa of my eldest grandson, the Fairview Garden. They are all growing well now, and we will be able to eat them next year. These strawberries were grown in the greenhouse. It's the first batch of ripe ones. We packed them into five big boxes. And our family couldn't eat them all, so I brought them here to share with you."
"You're must showing off."
These men gathered around and ate one, and then their eyes lit up instantly.
"Not bad, it tastes good. My grandson likes to eat strawberries. I'd like to buy some and take them home for him. He'll definitely like it."
Others also liked it. Many people sold strawberries, which were in large size and red but tasted sour. These elder people's teeth couldn't bear that acidity.
But the sour taste of these strawberry Mr. Brook brought were just right. It was delicious!
"Before, my prodigal son bought a small basket of strawberries. He said it was from a very expensive brand. One strawberry cost more than 100 yuan. When I ate it, it felt like I was eating my own meat. A family like ours is not shortage for money, but who would spend more than 100 yuan to buy one strawberry? I'd rather buy more strawberries which price is a few dozens yuan."
"My daughter is the same. Young people nowadays like some brand-name things, even if they are packaged, they can be sold for sky-high prices, uh... Mr. Brook, is this really planted by Nancy? It's delicious. I also want some. Do you have more? The more you eat, the more delicious it is!"
Hearing them praising his granddaughter sincerely, Grandpa Brook was even happier than winning at chess. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
"No, my son and grandson have taken them to their companies."
These elder men suddenly showed regretful expressions.
"Then can we go to pick strawberries tomorrow?"
Mr. Brook said, "I have to go back and ask my granddaughter about this. Let's make a deal first. My granddaughter is such a small child who works hard to grow these strawberries, so you can't take it without paying anything. That's unreasonable."
The others nodded hurriedly.
Mr. Brook achieved the purpose of showing off his granddaughter. James and Windy did not give in too much. They even took pictures and updated them to their social media.
Marcus stared at the phone with brows furrowed. Seeing that, others thought she must have encountered some serious problems.
Amazing, what epic puzzle could beat our boss?
"Marcus, what are you looking at?"
Yale walked slowly to the handle of Marcus's chair with a cup of coffee and sat down. A pair of smiling eyes turned to find that he was watching Wechat Moments.
Yale: "...I just thought you were caught by a difficult question. Why are you looked so sad when viewing Wechat Moments?"
He came here today for Nancy's strawberries, after all, he planted it with them once. he was thinking about it, and asked Nancy to inform him once strawberries were ripen. Now, he was here.
Marcus said solemnly, "Do me a favor."
Yale's eyes widened a bit. He suddenly became interested.
"So strange, should you need my help? Say, what's your business? After all, it's the first time you begged me after we've known each other for so many years. Even if you asked me to climb a mountain of swords or plunge into a sea of flames, I'd like to help you."
Marcus:" How to update my Wechat Moments?"
"What?"
Yale couldn't hold back, and spit out all the coffee in his mouth. Marcus looked at him calmly.
He stood up and looked at Marcus in disbelief.
"Sorry? What did you just say?"
Marcus was quite righteous, his expression didn't change, "Isn't there any problem with not knowing how to update Moments?"
Yale: "...No."
It seemed that there was nothing wrong with this.
But...even children knew how to update Moments, you don't know how to do that!
"Sorry, do you drink wolfberry tea?"
Marcus paused, then nodded, with a little pride in his tone, "Nancy made it for me, it's good for my health."
Yale twitched his eyelids. He didn't expect that his friend... lived such a life like elder's.
Why are you so proud of it. Yale thought.
"Come here, I'll teach you how to post your Moments."
Marcus leaned over and learned it seriously. It was very simple, and it was easy to learn.
Then he got up and took a photo of the strawberry he brought to the company, wrote a copy and sent it out.
g: Delicious.
Yale paid attention to him. The moment Marcus sent it out, he was the first to like it with a smile.
"It turned out to be showing off your sister."
He also had WeChat friends of others from the Brook family, and after viewing them, he found that James and Windy had posted on their Moments to show off their daughters. The theme was just one. The big red strawberries were grown by his own daughter, and they were very delicious.
Then many people liked their Moments and complimented Nancy. Maybe Marcus was envious about them.
Marcus watched the comments below the Moment he just posted calmly. He was in a good mood to receive likes and comments one after another. He chose a few comments and replied.
I want to raise a cat: This strawberry looks very delicious. Where did Mr. Brook buy it? I also want to buy some.
Reply: It's not for sell, my sister grows it herself.
Salary increase: The strawberries boss brought today are very delicious, and the people in the studio are going crazy, so they want to ask where to buy them.
Reply: My sister planted them.
His reply only expressed one meaning: this strawberries were planted by his sister. It was so childish.
Yale observed from the side, Marcus was very serious when he replied. He was serious every day and made others think he was hard to get along with. Who could know he should do such a childish thing.
However, the pride in his eyes could not be concealed.
The few people he replied were holding mobile phones curiously.
Among them, a girl in the design department of the company seemed to have ascended to heaven. After being patted on the shoulder by a colleague, she began to scream.
"Ahhh! ! ! I'm not dazzled, our Mr. Brook actually replied me!"
She was so excited that she pointed at the phone incoherently. "Mr. Brook's Moments, I just commented, and he actually replied me! "
Hearing that, the colleagues around surrounded her. After confirming it, they immediately exclaim with admiration.
"Mr. Brook actually updated his Moments. I should see that when I'm still alive!"
"I didn't even know it, and now I'm going to comment too."
"Uh... how to say?" It's like... he is showing off his sister?"
After being reminded by this, the people around her suddenly woke up, and then...
the cat that loves fish: Mr. Brook's sister is so amazing. I have bought a lot of strawberries, but they don't seem to be as delicious as Mr. Brook's.
"Fuck! Mary, you are so fast. It's shameless to flatter boss."
Although she said that, she quickly posted her own comment.
Gold coins fell from the sky: Is Nancy so powerful? God, she's only six years old, what kind of little fairy she is. she is so good to deliver meals to boss every day. And she can grow such delicious
strawberries. If I have such younger sister. I can wake up laughing even if I'm dreaming.
Then this comment was liked by Marcus.
Immediately, everyone in the office was so excited.
Seeing these comments of praising his sister, Marcus put down the phone with satisfaction.
Yale "..."
Marcus was indeed Marcus.
