Chapter 416 - 416: Eating Watermelon
With close to 60 acres of vegetables and contracts in place, there was no need to worry about sales!
The watermelon and peanuts were gradually ripening. The growth cycle of watermelons and peanuts was 100 to 120 days. As the first watermelon matured, others followed.
In the courtyard of the Shi Family, there were a few round and crisp green watermelons!
Shi Yaoqing took a fruit knife and randomly picked one up. After washing it in the pool, he carried it to the stone table under the tree and skillfully cut it open!
The moment the watermelon opened, the fragrance of the watermelon immediately spread!
“This watermelon smells so good!”
“That’s right! What a strong watermelon fragrance! It smells so good!” Third Sister-in-law smiled and quickly cut it. I’m drooling!”
Third Sister-in-law urged!
“Wow, this watermelon is really delicious!”
Shi Yaoqing moved faster and cut the watermelon in a few moves!
After Jiang Yao distributed the watermelons to the elders, she started eating!
After taking the first bite of the watermelon, Shi Yaoqing could not help but exclaim!
After taking a bite of the red watermelon, Shi Hangyu nodded and said, “I used to think that the watermelons my father planted were the best! But compared to the watermelons now, they’re just average!”
Shi Yuxin echoed, “This watermelon is really sweet and grainy. It’s crisp and delicious! This is the best watermelon I’ve ever eaten!”
“Xiao Xuan, Xiao Hao, eat slowly. No one is fighting with you!” Eldest Aunt saw the two children wolfing down the food and immediately said worriedly, “There arc plenty of watermelons at home now. After eating this, we’ll cut another one! Don’t be in a hurry to eat. Eat slowly!”
When children ate delicious food, they would not be able to control their mouths!
Xiao Xuan chewed on the watermelon, his cheeks puffing up and down like a hamster eating. He was extremely cute!
As he ate the watermelon, he said, “This watermelon is so sweet. It’s delicious!”
Everyone laughed when they saw how adorable the children were!
Grandma held Little Orange in her arms. Little Orange put her hands in her mouth and sucked. She sucked noisily and even made a babbling sound!
A pair of big round eyes kept rolling around. Then, her eyes stared fixedly at the red watermelon in the adults’ hands. Then, she let out a cry!
Grandma Shi smiled and said, “Yo, Little Orange, do you want to eat watermelon?”
When Gu Qingming heard this, she immediately placed the watermelon in her hand beside Little Orange’s mouth!
Grandma slapped her hand away and said very seriously, “Nonsense. How can such a young child eat watermelon! Aren’t you afraid that she will have a stomachache?”
Gu Qingming smiled and said, “Let her lick it. She doesn’t have teeth. She can’t eat it!”
“Children’s gums are very hard, but they can bite some!” Eldest Aunt said. “Watermelons are cold. Pregnant women can’t eat too much. Such a young child definitely can’t eat it!”
Gu Qingming said, “It’s just a little. It’s not that serious, right?”
“It’s better for us to be careful with the child!” Grandma said speechlessly. “Which mother is as heartless as you? You brought the child out on such a hot day. Aren’t you afraid of heatstroke? Those who don’t know might think that you’re a stepmother. You don’t know how to care for the child!”
Gu Qingming was speechless.
She felt that ever since Little Orange was born, the person they had once loved with all their heart had been squeezed into a corner!
“Come, come, Yaoqing, cut two more watermelons! This watermelon is the sweetest and most delicious watermelon I’ve ever eaten! Of course, I’ll try it first!” Eldest Aunt smiled!
Shi Hangyu asked as he ate, “Sis, how do you plan to sell these watermelons?”
