Watermelons are no better than cantaloupe, they were grown before, but they are not as crisp and sweet, so the price is not expensive, one penny per catty, and a twenty catty watermelon only sells for two taels of silver. Ten taels of silver each is greedy enough.

Zhang Hehua had a shrewd smile on her freckled face.

"That can't be helped. All the watermelons in our village have been rounded up by a girl in the village. They can't be sold outside. If you want to eat, you can only pay this price."

While talking, he glanced at Li Jing and Gongsun Yu. They looked like rich people with their clothes, how could they care about such a small amount of money? Unless they thought that the country girl they brought with them would not eat such an expensive watermelon, they would definitely buy it.

But to her surprise, the two gorgeously dressed young men did not speak, but the fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl in coarse clothes spoke.

"Okay, pick five of them for me."

"Five? That's at least 50 taels." Zhang Hehua looked over in surprise, with an expression of can you afford so much money.

Xiao Ningxue smiled, and directly took out a 50 tael bank note.

Seeing the money, Zhang Hehua's eyes lit up.

50 taels, she works so hard to sell wontons, and earns only so much a year, picking five watermelons here is enough for her to work for a year?
Luckily, she married into Taohua Village. Although the two stepson are annoying and have to pretend to like them, but the money here is so easy to earn, it should be easy to save a few hundred taels.

The sweetheart Xiao Cai is still waiting for her, she has to earn enough money quickly to live a good life with the sweetheart.

"Dabao and Erbao, be good, don't cry, my sister will give you candy. '

Just about to teach the baby a few words, Xue Ruyun gave the baby a shudder first, then snatched the candy back from his hand,
"You brat, you are insatiable, which one owes you? Pay back ten and don't eat any of them."

Anyway, I had nothing to do, so I watched the excitement silently while admiring the scenery.

After a pause, he rolled his eyes and said, "Dabao and Erbao, do you know where your father is? Go and find your father, my sister has something to do with him."

"Pick the watermelon first, and then I will give you the banknote.

And Xiao Ningxue called Li Jing and Gongsun Yu to sit under the shade of a tree by the side of the road.

Zhang Hehua's son at the side saw that Dabao and Erbao got sweets, quickly threw away the watermelon rind in his hand, ran over and stretched out his hand to Xiao Ningxue.

Just as they were talking, Wang Fugui's two sons, Da Bao and Xiao Bao, saw Xiao Ningxue and Xue Ruyun, and ran towards them wiping away tears, "Sister and Sister".

"Sugar, give me sugar, I want to eat too."

Seeing this, Xiao Ningxue was almost laughed out of anger, the melon Zhang Hehua stole was from their family.

"Brother Fugui married such a woman, the two sons will probably suffer a lot in the future."

Thinking of this, Zhang Hehua glanced around and saw that there was no one around, so she ran to someone else's melon field and brought out two large watermelons.

When she has enough money, she will divorce and live a prosperous life with her sweetheart.

If it is someone else, if there are only three, then sell three, 30 taels is more than enough, but Zhang Hehua is full of those 50 taels.

Although Xiao Ningxue felt that the child was not very polite, but since he was only five or six years old, she took one and gave it to him.

"Sure, wait a moment." Zhang Hehua retracted her hand awkwardly, then threw the melon rind in the other hand into the field, and then went into the watermelon field.

At the same time, I also feel that this child is rude and greedy, and he deserves to be taught a lesson, which makes people feel very relieved.

Speaking of which, before she met Wang Fugui, she already had a sweetheart. The other party was tall and young, and he knew more about style than Wang Fugui.

Xiao Ningxue closed her palms before she got it.

Li Jing and Gongsun Yu bought a lot of watermelons, of course they knew that all the watermelons were wrapped in snow by Xiao Ningxue, if someone here dared to sell them secretly, they must be dealt with.

The grandfather of the village chief he was talking about was Wang Yonggui, and he called it very kindly. He co-authored not only to take away Dabao and Erbao's father, but also their grandfather?
It is said that where there is a stepmother, there is a stepfather. Brother Fugui, don't be blinded by this woman and make such a mess!
Zhang Hehua stooped to collect watermelons one by one, and didn't have time to care about her son.

Brother Fugui should also be kept in the dark by this woman, otherwise he would not be able to marry such a woman.

Li Jing and Gongsun Yu almost laughed out loud, Xue Ruyun's temperament really suits their taste, he speaks straightforwardly, and gets along easily.

Xiao Ningxue wiped the two children's tears with a handkerchief, and then stuffed a handful of fruit candies into their hands.

After looking around, I only found three of them, and the others were not familiar.

Unexpectedly, the boy thought it was too few, stomping his feet and said arrogantly: "Why only one? You gave those two annoying bastards six or seven each, and I want ten!
Xiao Ningxue was almost laughed out of anger, it is true that dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, mice give birth to holes, and this greedy woman gave birth to a son comparable to hers.

Zhang Hehua was collecting watermelons in the field, eager to make money, she glanced back, reprimanded her, and went on with her work.

The boy was scolded, and the candy was robbed, and he sat down on the ground and played tricks.

It wasn't long before the watermelons were picked, and she came to the field to pick watermelons to eat when she was thirsty these two days, so it was really not easy to find five large watermelons weighing twenty catties in this field.

After thinking like this for a while, the smile on Zhang Hehua's face became more enthusiastic, and she reached out to grab the silver in Xiao Ningxue's hand.

His eyes were fixed on Xiao Ningxue's armhole, as if he wanted to dig it out in a hurry.

"I know, I know." Dabao and Erbao happily replied, clutching the candy, "Daddy is weeding at the foot of the mountain over there, let's call." After speaking, the two children ran towards the nearby hills.

"My grandfather is the village chief if you dare to beat me, I'll let him arrest you now, wow~" Crying, he got up from the ground and went to rescue the soldiers.

"Five, right? I'll take it off."

Xue Ruyun looked at Zhang Hehua's back and shook her head helplessly.

The several families were already close, Xiao Ningxue and Xue Ruyun hugged them a lot on weekdays, but now the two children ran towards them with aggrieved feelings, the two felt very distressed.

Xiao Ningxue sneered, "Then expose her true colors and let Brother Fugui divorce her."

If it belonged to someone else's house, Zhang Hehua might have really fooled it.

How did Zhang Hehua know? She thought it was invisible, since no one saw it anyway.

He was very happy, and carried all five watermelons to the side of the road in several trips.

"Look at this big watermelon, it's sweet, crispy and refreshing." He said while patting the two that Xiao Ningxue picked out from the field of Xiao Ningxue's house, "These two are at least fifty catties, but there is no extra charge , 50 taels for five watermelons, please give me the money, Miss.'
"it is good."

Xiao Ningxue nodded, glanced at Wang Fugui who was coming this way, and calmly took out the money.
