"Hey, old man, do you think so?"

The old lady looked at the old man who had taken a step back.

"..."

The old man did not answer immediately.

He frowned.

He looked like he was thinking about it carefully.

at first……

How many days have passed since they bought the little plum tree...

"I thought plum trees grew so fast..."

The old man murmured.

Moreover, he was living in a bit of a muddle during this period of time...

My sensitivity to surrounding things has become much slower.

He didn't notice any obvious changes.

…

"I didn't even notice..."

The old lady rubbed her temples.

Obviously I watch it every day.

But sometimes, there are some things that you just can’t discover every day.

On the contrary, if you look again after a period of time...you will notice the changes immediately.

…

"Do plum trees grow so fast?"

The old man was confused.

In his memory, the little plum tree he just bought and planted was only half a head taller than his grandson who was still in kindergarten.

That's why the child excitedly competed with Xiao Meishu in height, and vowed that if he drank milk every day, he would soon surpass Xiao Meishu in height...

But the plum tree in front of me right now...

The old man raised his eyes.

They are all taller than him.

Although it is still much shorter than the plum trees in the park.

But it's much higher than when they bought it.

You know, it's only been about two years since they bought this little plum tree... the old man frowned...

Isn’t this growth a bit too good?

Especially this plum tree, which they didn't realize had been sick for who knows how long.

Even so……

Can it still be like this, should I say thrive?

…

The more the old man thought about it, the more strange he felt.

There was a bit of thought in his eyes as he looked at the plum tree.

…

"It stands to reason..."

The old lady also raised her eyes and looked at the plum tree.

"It won't grow so fast."

"But there are always exceptions, right?"

"Maybe our plum tree grows so fast?"

The old lady hesitated.

However, other than this explanation, she couldn't think of any more reasonable explanation.

…

"Isn't it sick?"

The old man expressed another point that he found strange.

"Why do you look so good?"

…

The old lady was slightly startled.

"How do you know it didn't grow this tall before it got sick?"

…

"It has been sick for a long time..."

It’s been more than half a year since Lele left...

He couldn't remember when they discovered the plum tree was sick.

But it has been several months anyway.

Excluding these few months, wouldn't this plum tree have grown so much in a shorter period of time?

"Did it take growth hormone...?"

The old man murmured.

I always feel...something...unbelievable?

…

"What growth hormone?"

The old lady responded slowly.

…

"I mean, the plum tree is growing so fast it's like it's been on growth hormone."

The old man explained.

"Oh~"

The old lady was stunned.

"It's a bit like..."

"You said it was sick because of the growth hormone injection...?"

…

The old man couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Old woman, what's wrong with you?"

"What I just said was a joke."

"I didn't give this plum tree any growth hormone."

"Did you hit it?"

…

The old lady shook her head.

How could she give the little plum tree growth hormone?

It's not a good thing.

…

"That's okay."

The old man sighed.

"It's not you, it's not me."

"Who else can come to our yard and give growth hormone to this little plum tree?"

…

The old lady is nervous.
