What a shameful question this is!
Zhang Yanping was simply stunned - did he look like a provincial party committee member? Why is everyone asking civil servants!
Therefore, he asked with the same serious face: "Xiao Zhu, Party Secretary, if I take the civil service examination, can you guarantee that I will be assigned to our village?"
Who can guarantee this?
Xiao Zhu, the party secretary, immediately stopped talking.
Zhang Yanping started to tremble: "Look! You also know how difficult life is after leaving this village, right? I'm going to take the civil service exam for the sake of letting go of my good life now. What do I want?"
"Are there many bad things that I can do if I try to eat somewhere else?"
Zhu Jun: ...Damn it!
What he said actually makes sense!
Looking at the watermelon in her hand, she always wished that her family would be blessed by her ancestors in her previous life... ah no, in this life, she must have been blessed by her ancestors!
So "Ah woo", he bit off the crispy, sweet and refreshing melon pulp in his hand, and then briefly broached the topic. Actively greet everyone: "Eat melon, eat melon!"
There was silence in the courtyard.
After a while, Xin Jun suddenly laughed out loud, and then everyone laughed happily one after another.
Song Tan took this opportunity and said: "Since I want to send melons, I will also send some to my uncle and aunt. Anyway, I have to go to the city today and solve it in one trip."
"But please leave some for me for dinner. I can't get used to eating outside."
Qiaoqiao came over expectantly:
"Sister, will you take me with you today? I want to carry my Ultraman on my back. He hasn't seen the sky outside yet."
What's the sky outside? Aren’t they all under the same sky?
Song Tan was speechless, but also a little curious: "How do you carry it?"
Qiao Qiao became proud:
"My grandpa's house has long johns from my childhood. I took off the rubber bands and tied them on Sero, so I could wear them on my back."
"The power of M78 Nebula will turn me into a strong man in the light. I can hold two melons!"
Song Tan sneered: "I can hold four!"
Qiao Qiao was anxious: "I'll hold 6 of them!"
Song Tan: ...Pull him down, you hold 6 of them, I'm afraid you'll smash my melon!
It doesn’t matter whether it’s Tiga or Zero, as long as he doesn’t buy melons, he’s not a good Ultraman!
"Okay, okay, go ahead, go ahead."
Song Tan quickly changed the subject: "By the way, Mom, take out the electronic scale and I'll put it in the car later."
I haven’t sold anything for a long time. Even if I sell something, I don’t use a scale. I almost forgot about it.
"What to take?" Ulan now didn't look stingy at all: "We still need to weigh tea at night. You are going to the city anyway, can't you just buy one on the way? It's indispensable."
Fine.
Song Tan nodded, and then began to make calculations——
I will send 3 melons to my aunt’s house, 6 melons to my uncle and grandma, and another 3 melons to my aunt’s house.
As for the uncle... I didn’t say it in front of the old man just now. I have to give it as a gift. Let’s give him one!
By the way, I also need to prepare myself mentally for the uncle - grandpa is going to renovate the old house. He is such a big boy, so he needs to prepare some money in advance!
In this way, 13 melons are enough.
…
But at this moment, everyone had finished chewing a watermelon, and they were not satisfied at all.
The seventh cousin looked at all the big eaters present, and then he took the knife and opened another one without hesitation.
This one seemed a little more reserved, and the knife didn't actively break when it touched it.
But when it was cut halfway down, there was also a "click".
Everyone Xilihulu ate a total of three melons, and when they were about to have lunch, the seventh cousin stopped.
"Are you done eating? Don't leave. Help me peel the watermelon. I'll peel off the pulp you've chewed on, and then peel off the green skin on the outside."
In fact, like this, it would be more convenient to just use a knife to slice the melon pulp out before eating.
But everyone said that there is no soul in eating like this. You have to hold a big piece and chew it until your face is full of juice.
Anyway, it doesn't matter whether lunch is early or late, so the seventh cousin just lets it go.
But now he regrets it——
"Look at you guys who have chewed the skin of melons. They are so pitted that they are worse than dogs! How much more can you get if you peel them off later?"
Song Tan took a look at it and found that it was real and not as good as a dog.
To be honest, the king eats much more neatly.
Zhang Yanping was still holding a small knife in his hand. Looking at the thin layer of melon rind, he also fell into silence.
The skin of this melon is already thin, so after they chew it into pieces, part of it needs to be peeled off, and the outer layer of green skin also needs to be peeled off.
No matter how careful you are, it will only be two or three millimeters thin when you get it.
Everyone looked at each other.
Finally, it was Xin Jun who suggested——
"Then... do you want to eat two melons again?"
"This time, cut off the flesh first."
Good guy!
After eating these five melons, will everyone still have lunch?
The seventh cousin didn’t know how to comment.
"The main reason is that you are chewing too much. If there is red flesh left on top, it doesn't matter if it is thinner. I can also make watermelon candy, which is chewy and sweet. It is more delicious than winter melon candy."
"If there is no red flesh and only white flesh is left, you can make watermelon sauce, or you can directly stir-fry it with our green pepper beef sauce. If that doesn't work, stir-fry a piece of watermelon rind and shredded pork for lunch, which is also very delicious."
"Now……"
The little old man looked at the large basin of miserable watermelon rinds on the ground, and finally sighed:
"How about feeding the pigs?"
After thinking about it for a while, I finally gave this instruction:
"Next time you eat melon, slice it off for me first. Even if it's not enough to stir-fry for a basin, even if it's enough for one plate, I'll give you the cold sauce first to taste it!"
Suck!
Just saying that, who can bear it?
Even at his age, Song Youde felt his stomach growling. He looked around and saw that they were all a bunch of strong young men working hard, and his own watermelons were small——
"How about... two more?"
"Yes, his cousin!"
Song Sancheng also felt that he had not eaten enough, so he said plausibly at this moment: "This watermelon is full of water. If you put it in your stomach for a few times, it will be gone. Eating two more will not affect your lunch!"
Then he looked left and right and saw Qiao Qiao beside him: "Qiao Qiao hasn't even learned this skill, so why don't you give her a chance?"
Good guy, Ren Qiaoqiao is just waiting for this watermelon rind technology, right?
The seventh cousin said angrily: "Eat, eat, I'll take off the meat first this time - by the way, what do you want to eat for lunch? Stir-fried or cold?"
That must be the cold watermelon rind!
The seventh cousin snorted, raised the knife, cut two more melons, divided one side into eight segments, and then cut off the pulp with one smooth motion.
I saw only the emerald green skin, about five millimeters of white flesh, and two to three millimeters of red flesh on it, which was even and silky.
Zhu Jun looked at it and suddenly sighed:
"Song Tan, when you first planted watermelons, why didn't you plant some with thick skin?"
Song Tan:......
This is a good question.
Why doesn't she plant something with thicker skin?
Because no one wants a watermelon with a thick skin! ! !
Besides, considering how plump her mountain watermelon is, even if it has a thick skin, it will still be stretched open by this strong and plump flesh!
Sorry for being late!
But there is an update, I just couldn't finish it at 12 o'clock...there will be one later.
