After the two eldest sisters put it up, they immediately weighed it for their grandfather. Grandpa picked up the scales and weighed them up.

After the scales, the grandfather immediately said to them, "It's a little bit worse than two catties." ”

After saying that, he opened the bag, grabbed a little with his own hand, and put it in two pockets.

Grandpa continued to weigh up, this time a little more, grandpa immediately asked the two eldest sisters to look at each other, and the two eldest sisters immediately looked at it.

The two eldest sisters said one after another: "Uncle is okay, I have two catties." ”

After speaking, they each took out their wallets and gave the money to their grandfather, and after reading it, the grandfather found change for them.

The two eldest sisters just left with melon seeds. Grandpa continued to sell, and a few people came one after another, some weighing a pound, mainly because they ate a dry mouth.

There are children in the family, buy them back and eat them, and gradually the time is noon, and the salty melon seeds fried by grandpa are almost sold.

The original one was only sold for five catties, and grandpa weighed it, and there were twenty-four catties left. Exactly half sold.

Grandpa sighed, it seems that there is still a taste and is better to sell, and he sees that there are fewer people on the street.

Grandpa picked up the basket on his back, shouted as he walked, and walked towards the station.

After a while, after arriving at the station, the tricycle was parked there, and the grandfather hurriedly got on the car, and the driver waited until it was full of people before driving away.

The tricycle burned with diesel fuel and rumbled towards the village, and after more than half an hour, the grandfather asked the driver to stop and gave him the fare.

Grandpa walked towards his home with a basket on his back, and when he got home, grandma was cooking in the kitchen.

He put the basket into the hall, hurried to the kitchen to fetch water, washed his hands, and his grandmother immediately asked him, "Wife, are you sold out?"

Grandpa shook his head and said loudly: "Half of it is sold, and all the fried flavors are sold out." When the time comes, we will fry the melon seeds after eating, and we will have to put the flavor. ”

Grandma nodded and said yes, the two old men brought the cooked meal to the table, and at this time Tianzhou also came back, he called his grandparents loudly, and his grandparents called him to eat.

He nodded and said yes, put down his schoolbag, went to wash his hands, came to the table in the hall, picked up chopsticks and ate, and said while eating, "Grandpa, we have summer vacation." ”

Grandpa immediately asked him, "Then you finish your homework first." Are you going to make up for it?"

Tianzhou said while eating: "Wait a minute, I'll show you the final exam, I scored eighty-nine and ninety-one points." When the time comes, you tell my dad that if he asks me to make it up, I'll make it up. ”

Grandma said while eating, "Tianzhou, do you find it difficult to study now?"

Tianzhou said while eating: "It's okay, I'm in the fourth grade now, and my grades should be good, ranking in the top ten in our class." ”

When the grandparents heard this, they smiled and said that it would be good, and the grandmother immediately said, "Then in this case, you don't need to go to make up the class, you can finish the homework yourself at home." Help me and grandpa when the time comes. ”

Tianzhou nodded and said okay, the three grandfathers and grandsons had lunch, and grandma cleaned up the dishes and went to wash them.

Grandma immediately called Tianzhou over and asked him to help light the fire and fry the remaining melon seeds again.

Tianzhou saw the melon seeds in the basket and asked happily: "Grandma, there are still so many melon seeds left!

Grandma lit the firewood and asked him to sit down and light the fire, and then said, "Your grandfather went to sell half of it today, and we will fry it again." ”

Tianzhou nodded and said okay, sat on the small bench, and began to burn the fire, grandma waited for the iron pot to dry, and asked Tianzhou to burn a small fire and put the salt that was fried last time.

Then pour the melon seeds into the pot and fry them with a spatula.

Grandpa washed his hands and caught silkworms there again, the first silkworms had begun to form cocoons, and the silk spit out turned into white cocoons.

For about half an hour, after grandma and Tianzhou finished frying, grandma shoveled up the melon seeds, put them in a bamboo dustpan cover, and then put them up when they were cold.

Grandma asked Tianzhou to help grandpa first, Tianzhou nodded and said yes, came to the hall, and saw grandpa catching silkworms there.

Tianzhou immediately asked his grandfather: "Grandpa, let me help you." ”

Grandpa immediately stopped and said loudly, "No need, you go and do your homework first." ”

Tianzhou nodded and said okay, grandpa didn't want him to help, and the three of them were busy.

After a while, the grandmother had already packed the melon seeds. Put it all in two pockets.

After washing his hands, he immediately went to the hall to help catch silkworms.

Tianzhou picked up his homework and pen on the table and began to write. Now let's start writing the language.

Two hours later, the grandparents finally finished catching the silkworms, and at this time there were still two silkworms with round dustpans.

The grandparents picked up the bamboo cage and looked carefully at the cocoon on it, which could be removed in a few days.

After reading it, the grandparents breathed a sigh of relief and immediately walked to the table, and Tianzhou's hands were sour.

Grandpa immediately asked him to show them the test papers, and Tianzhou immediately stopped and picked up the Chinese and mathematics test papers next to him.

After the grandparents looked at it separately, the two old men could still see the above scores, and they nodded and said, "The test is good, and it will be better after the make-up class." ”

After speaking, the two old men went back to the room to rest, and asked Tianzhou to rest for a while, and then write later.

Tianzhou nodded and said okay, and the three of them went back to the room to rest.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the grandparents got up and immediately went to catch silkworms, and in the last two or three days, the silkworms became the most transparent.

Grandma called Tianzhou up and told him to continue to do his homework. He rubbed his eyes and yawned.

Grandma immediately turned around and went to the hall to catch silkworms with Grandpa.

Tianzhou took out his homework and pen and continued to write, this time writing math problems.

Busy until the evening, the grandparents almost finished catching the remaining silkworms, and there are still about twenty, so they have to catch them tomorrow.

The grandparents poured all the silkworm sand in the dustpan together and sprinkled it in the vegetable field when the time came.

I cleaned all of these and breathed a sigh of relief when I was done.

The two old men went to the kitchen to cook dinner again, and an hour later, the meal was ready.

Grandma asked Tianzhou to eat first, Tianzhou nodded and said okay, and put away his homework and pen back to the room.

Grandma turned on the fluorescent lamp, and the three grandchildren began to eat dinner.

After eating, grandma went to wash the dishes, and grandpa hot bath water.

After the heat was good, the grandfather and grandson washed one after another, closed the door, and went back to their rooms to rest.

The next morning, after breakfast, the grandfather carried the melon seeds in the basket to the village street to sell.

Tianzhou did her homework at home, and her grandmother went to the river to wash clothes.

It didn't take long for Grandpa to go to La Street, and there were many people in the village to catch the market.

Grandpa found the side of the vegetable seller, put down the back basket, opened the melon seeds, took out the scale, and began to sell loudly.

There are few people in the village who grow melon seeds, and as time passes, some people still come to buy them, and grandpa still sells them for six yuan a catty.

All the melon seeds were fried to a salty taste, and most of the villagers who bought melon seeds bought a catty.

As time passed, there were fewer people slowly, and the weather was slowly getting hotter, grandpa took out the remaining melon seeds, weighed them, and there were still six and a half catties left.

Grandpa sighed and thought to himself: Forget it, carry the rest back and eat it yourself.

Grandpa picked up the basket and walked home.

Grandma had already washed her clothes and cooked lunch.

When Grandpa got home, Grandma told them to eat.

The three of them sat down at the table and began to eat lunch. Grandma asked while eating, "Wife, how many are still unsold?"

Grandpa said while eating: "There are still more than six catties left, let's eat it ourselves." ”

After hearing this, Tianzhou immediately asked happily: "Grandpa, you left me melon seeds." ”

Grandpa nodded and said yes, wait a minute, you can grab some to eat after you finish your homework.

Tianzhou nodded and said okay, after lunch, grandma cleaned up the dishes and went to wash, and grandpa checked the silkworms on the bamboo cage.

Grandma had already caught more than 20 in the morning, and Tianzhou took out her homework and began to write.

After washing, Grandma went back to the house to rest. After the grandfather finished the inspection, he asked Tianzhou to rest, and he went back to his room to rest.

Tianzhou said okay, closed the door, Tianzhou grabbed a handful of melon seeds, took them to his room, put them on the small desk, sat on the small bench, and began to eat.

The melon seed flesh with a little salty taste, it is fragrant in the mouth, and the melon seed shell that is spit out, Tianzhou puts it on the table, and sweeps it out when the time comes.

A handful of melon seeds were eaten quickly, Tianzhou didn't catch it anymore, quickly took off his shoes, and began to take a nap on his small bed.

He's grown a little taller this year, and he's slowly getting used to his mom and dad not being home.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the grandparents got up, and the grandfather called Tianzhou up and asked him to do his homework, and Tianzhou nodded and said okay.

The grandparents checked the silkworms on the bamboo cage again, and they had to pick up the silkworms that could not spin silk, so they had to pick them up and throw them away.

It's just a pity, every time at the end, more than a hundred sick silkworms will be thrown down.

After the inspection, the grandparents sat down and discussed there, how much does this year's silkworm cocoons sell for a catty?

The price varies from year to year, sometimes it goes up a little bit, sometimes it gets a little cheaper.

After resting for a while, the grandparents went to wash their hands, grabbed a handful of melon seeds, and sat there to start eating.

Grandpa took out all the money and counted it twice, forty-two catties of melon seeds, and sold it for a total of two hundred and fifty-two yuan.

Grandpa took a hundred yuan to grandma and asked her to use it when she usually bought things, and grandpa called Tianzhou loudly and asked him to come over and eat melon seeds.

Tianzhou nodded and said okay, put down the pen, and immediately walked over, grabbed a little melon seeds, and began to eat.

Grandma asked while eating: "Tianzhou, are these melon seeds delicious?"

Tianzhou ate several before he smiled and said, "Grandma, it's delicious, I've already eaten it." ”

Grandpa immediately said: "Eat only a little every day, you can't eat too much, eating too much will cause diarrhea, you know?"

Tianzhou nodded and said okay, after the grandfather and grandson ate two handfuls of melon seeds, grandpa immediately told Tianzhou not to eat them, and Tianzhou said okay.

Grandma immediately went to find a broom and a shovel, swept the melon seed shells off the ground, and dumped them next to the garbage heap in the yard outside.

Tianzhou continued to write math problems.
