Unfair competition

We bought some flower pots, big and small, seeds, watering can and soil. We wanted to grow some organic vegetables just for a fun experience. N planted some chye sim but I preferred lady’s fingers. A week into the “competition”, N called me in the office.

N “ Mummy, I have something to tell and I bet, you wont be too happy to hear about it”
Me “ Ha, what is it now? “
N “ 2 of your plants have kind of died. They collapsed. They are so tall but skinny like a stick. They can’t stand up too well. Mine are growing well. They are short but they didn’t collapse like yours. Hahaha. I win”

Me “ That is unfair. Can you ask Auntie Rose to tie a chopstick next to the plant?”
N “ No No. No way. “

See how cheeky she is!
