Zhao Cuihua tasted this taste for the first time. In the hot summer, it was particularly sweet and refreshing, and it seemed that she was suddenly neither hot nor thirsty.
Yan Qingyao brought Chen Yiyi and her two brothers in. Chen Yiyi saw the watermelons on the table one by one. She had no doubts, but couldn't help but swallowed her saliva: "Sister Yaoyao, you bought new delicious ones again. ?”
The other two brothers are also very greedy. They are still wearing new clothes made by Aunt Zhao. They are usually naughty at home. At Aunt Zhao's house, mother said they should be polite.
"Come, eat!" Yan Qingyao and Liu Qifei each brought them a piece of watermelon: "Try it, is it delicious?"
Before the words were finished, the three children couldn't wait to take a bite, nodding their heads, and didn't even have time to speak.
Yan Qingyao and Liu Qifei looked at each other, cut the watermelon into a modern fruit plate shape, piece by piece, then put them in a bowl, and ate the watermelon at the entrance of the courtyard.
Although there have been a lot of strange things going on in her family over the past six months, the neighbors are still willing to see it, and there is no repeating strange thing every time.
Just because of the sweet taste of watermelon, many neighbors gathered in front of the house in a short while.
"One by one" A neighbor recognized the child of his next door neighbor and asked curiously: "What are you eating?"
Yiyi immediately said: "Sister Yaoyao said this is called watermelon, it is very sweet and delicious."
As soon as this was said, the villagers immediately started talking again. After asking around, no one had heard of watermelon.
Village chief Chen Chunsheng was passing by and after hearing this strange incident, he came with his grandson Chen Xiaoyu.
"Girl Qingyao." Chen Chunsheng was still greeting them, and Chen Xiaoyu ran to the table, put his hands on the edge of the table, and stared at the red thing on the table that was called "watermelon".
Yan Qingyao gave Chen Xiaoyu a piece, and Chen Xiaoyu took it without any courtesy: "Thank you, sister Yaoyao."
He took a big mouthful, and a mouthful of juice dripped from the corner of his mouth. He didn't care, and smiled stupidly: "It's delicious, it's really delicious."
Chen Chunsheng looked at Yan Qingyao and then at Liu Qifei: "Isn't this another thing from the capital?"
Liu Qifei glanced at Yan Qingyao proudly and saw that she had no intention of answering. He made it clear that he wanted her to be in the limelight and nodded: "Yes, the seeds I brought from the capital were planted for Yaoyao."
Yan Qingyao picked up a piece and said, "The village chief wants to try it too."
Chen Chunsheng took it over, took a bite, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Hey, it's delicious!"
Each bite was delicious, making the surrounding villagers envious. They wanted to ask them to try it for themselves, but seeing that almost hundreds of people in the village were here, it didn't seem practical...
The villagers were ready to make a move. Yan Qingyao seemed to read their thoughts and directly brought out the watermelon cut into small pieces: "You guys should try it too."
After cutting two plates, they were all sold out in just two seconds. Liu Qifei glanced around and saw Aunt Wu's family, and brought an extra bowl to them: "Aunt Wu, do you want to eat?"
Aunt Wu suddenly looked as if she had become a professed queen. She took two steps forward, swayed her waist, and gave way to her with a dark face on both sides. Then she reached out and took the bowl of watermelon. : "Thank you, Miss Liu."
There are many people in their family, and just one person is gone.
The watermelon was sweet and delicious, and it was gone in one bite. Aunt Wu couldn't help but curse in her heart: Don't go with these two sisters-in-law again next time, they will share all the little benefits!
"Is it delicious?" Yan Qingyao asked knowingly when she saw them still standing at the door thinking about it.
The villagers said in unison: "It's delicious!"
Yan Qingyao and Liu Qifei each held a melon in their hands and said directly: "This melon is not expensive. I will sell it to you for thirty cents per catty."
"This melon costs thirty cents per catty? I'd say this melon weighs two to three catties."
"Isn't that ninety cents a piece? It's more expensive than rice!"
"This melon is so delicious. I can't afford it for ninety cents!"
After hearing this, the villagers talked to each other and left silently.
The original intention is not to sell it to them, but I am afraid that they will secretly eat it, so it is better to share it boldly. Besides, if you tell me the hook, they will never come here even if they want it again.
Liu Qifei looked at Aunt Wu who was about to leave, and raised her lips: "Aunt Wu."
Aunt Wu shivered subconsciously when she was called out like this, and turned around: "Huh?"
Liu Qifei held a watermelon in her hand: "There are so many people in your family, do you want to buy two melons?"
The three of them usually fight over how to please this person from the capital, but now it's all about you looking at you, me looking at me, and no one has any intention of being in the limelight.
Ninety cents for a melon, if the men in the family find out, why can't they be scolded to death?
"Yes, you also know the situation of my family..." Aunt Wu raised her hand to wipe away the non-existent tears on her face, perfectly interpreting her flexible and flexible character.
Liu Qifei nodded: "Yes, I know your family's family conditions are not very good!"
Aunt Wu nodded. Before she said she had to work in the fields, she was stopped by Liu Qifei: "So, if you don't buy a melon, I will give you one as a gift. You can buy two melons for one hundred cents. How nice." ah!"
"This..." Aunt Wu looked at the two sisters-in-law, her eyes softened, and finally agreed that the whole family would contribute one share and bought this melon.
After buying the melon, Aunt Wu secretly pulled Liu Qifei aside and whispered: "Miss Liu, can you give us a copy of this melon?"
Liu Qifei glanced at Yan Qingyao subconsciously and agreed readily: "Of course, it's just that this melon only bears fruit once a year, so we can't plant it this year."
"Then we will plant it next year." When I think about the fact that these melons cost thirty cents a pound, and each melon can be sold for as low as sixty cents a piece, wouldn't it be a huge profit if I just turned my home into a melon field?
Liu Qifei nodded: "Okay! I will give the seeds to you next year."
As for whether she will be there next year, she doesn't care.
Seeing them go back with satisfaction, Liu Qifei put the hundred copper plates in Zhao Cuihua's hand: "Aunt Zhao, this is for you."
"This..." Zhao Cuihua glanced at Yan Qingyao subconsciously.
Seeing her nodding, she accepted it.
She must have told Miss Feifei about being bullied, but she didn't expect that Miss Feifei would remember it.
Zhao Cuihua remembered that day that they had coaxed and scolded her for a long time, but she had not agreed to increase their purchase price to 40 cents per catty. She said proudly: "I am cruel now!"
"Are you really cruel?" Yan Qingyao approached with a look of disbelief: "We have no way to make a living now. How about you spend another three days making ten bamboo baskets?"
Zhao Cuihua's face turned green and red: "..."
"Hahaha." Yan Qingyao covered her mouth and snickered: "I won't tease you anymore. We have other things to do in the future and are busy!"
