The Splendid Life of the Almighty Peasant Girl

Chapter 87 Watermelon
That night, Lin Qiuyue didn't carry a watermelon, but a quarter of the watermelon, because the other quarter was for the village chief.

Lin Qiuyue is not a fool, so naturally she will not let others know how many people are in their family?
After leisurely talking about the place, she took people to see it. There were indeed some there, but not many were cooked. They took one back, cut it in half, they ate it, and cut the rest in half. I deliberately waited until the evening before sending it over.

After all, there are only two watermelons here. If you divide them, you can't divide them into one, even half of them.

So after discussing with the head of the village, the next day, he took a few respected people to the place where there were two watermelons.

In addition, those who heard the news also followed.

Everyone followed leisurely together. In Lin Qiuyue's words, whoever discovers will lead the way?

Leisurely speechless, she understood Lin Qiuyue's kindness.

"Ai, look, there really is one, it's so big."

Everyone couldn't help but look at the several big watermelons lying on the ground, they couldn't be happier.

Although there are not many, each person can still taste a small piece.

This watermelon is very expensive. I heard that only the royal relatives can eat it. Now they can try it too.

Several male laborers rushed to pick it, but the patriarch hurriedly stopped him:
"Wait, wait, don't pick it casually, see if it is ripe? If it is not ripe, it will be wasted."

When everyone heard it, they immediately stopped, you look at me, I look at you, they don't know how to be familiar with it?
Leisurely said quickly:

"It's said in the book I read that you can hear it by listening to the sound of patting, right? Grandma."

Lin Qiuyue nodded:
"Yes, it is said to be clapped with hands, if the sound is crisp, it is not cooked, if it is cloudy, it is cooked.

Of course, this is just what the book said, and I don't know the specifics. After all, this thing is not something we can afford. "

Everyone nodded, and the patriarch and the patriarch went down to pick them out, but unfortunately only found two. Even so, everyone was very happy.

Leisurely only planted two melons here, and did not remove the melons, so several grew.

In fact, the real planting is not like this.

Remove the ones that have been removed, and there are three small ones left.

But the melon next to it, five melons, only a dozen can be eaten.

There is also a nectarine tree. You must know that there are no nectarines in this era, only wool peaches, and nectarines are naturally precious.

The patriarch and the village head immediately decided not to allow the children to come and make trouble, but to protect these watermelons.

Youran doesn't care about this, because she knows that there are still a few top-quality products in the village, and these things probably won't be left behind.

Back in the village, the patriarch and the village chief cut the watermelon himself.

The population of Lin Family Village, including adults and children, is about 300.

Regardless of these three watermelons, everyone really just tasted them.

Many people took the mini piece and licked it again and again, but they were reluctant to eat it.

There are also those who eat fast, just like Zhu Bajie who eats ginseng fruit. After eating, he wants to snatch others, and is scolded.

Melons are not uncommon, and those with better conditions can still eat them.

It's just that the taste is different, not as sweet or as crisp.

Leisurely collected some seeds after they finished eating.

Seeing her squatting on the ground, picking up the seeds spit out by others, the patriarch hurriedly stopped her.

"Of course, what are you doing with the seeds? Are they dirty? Get up quickly."

"Grandpa patriarch, it's fine. I want to keep it. I'll try it next year and see if it can be planted. If it can be planted, we won't need so many people to just eat a little bit."

The patriarch sighed and said:

"With so many adults, we are not as good as a child."

"Can this work?"

"I don't know, there's no harm in trying anyway, right? Patriarch Grandpa?"

"Yes, yes, yes, but if you want to try, try it. If you succeed, then you will be our great hero."

Leisurely...

Some villagers also picked up some, wanting to try to see if they can be planted next year?
Someone asked:
"Is it okay to plant now?"

Shaking his head leisurely:

"As the book says, it's too late to plant now, and we have to wait until next spring.

However, although it cannot grow up, it should be able to grow, but it may not be cooked enough to eat. "

Everyone thought about it, so they dismissed the idea and placed their hopes on next year.

Youran guessed right before, but after only four or five days, the watermelon over there was gone, and even the peach tree was removed.

This made the patriarch very angry. Of course, not only the patriarch was angry, but also the village chief and most of the villagers in Linjiacun.

Because the interests of the whole village are involved, there will naturally be people who start looking for where the peach tree is?
At this time, the nectarine tree was at Du's house.

It turned out that the old lady of the Yuan family took her son and daughter-in-law and dug it out quietly. They also picked the watermelon, and even the watermelon seedlings were pulled out by them as if to vent their anger.

Du Zihao really didn't expect that there would be watermelons in this remote village.

Although his Du family is considered rich in Qingyun Town, they really can't eat watermelon.

Especially this nectarine, which has no hair on it, does not need to be peeled, and the taste is not bad.

This nectarine tree was protected by the Du family, but how could a tree that was bearing fruit survive so easily?

But in a few days, no matter how careful they were, the nectarine tree withered and died.

Youran was not surprised by this result, she knew it would be this result from the beginning.

No matter how noisy they are, it can't get on them, just let them make noise.

The wheat harvest has started, and these girls don't have to go to the fields, but how can they live idle?
Especially the two Youyu sisters, they are used to doing farm work, and they are not used to not being allowed to work this time.

So they worked hard on eating, boiled a big pot of mung bean soup to relieve the heat, and sent it to the fields.

You Ting thought about herbal diet, if you want to ask her how she came up with this aspect, it was naturally in the book leisurely took out.

Youran also wanted to help in the field, but her father and mother forced her back.

There are so many people cooking at home, and she doesn't need her, she can just watch Mingjie with the children.

She rested her chin, thinking, in a few more years, she would have to get out the simple harvester, or she would be too tired.

Although simple machines are not as convenient as those that are all automatic, they are quite good for ancient times. There was no oil or electricity in ancient times.

No, there should be oil, but I don't know where?She didn't think about it too quickly.

Just like a child, you can't let him run when he still has trouble standing, otherwise the foundation will be unstable and accidents will happen easily.

In order to maintain a normal balance, she should take it step by step.

　I've been busy all day today, so I don't have time to write. The next chapter will be posted later. To be honest, my mind is in a mess. I won't be able to write for a while, maybe after ten o'clock.
