Chapter 343: Picking Watermelons

"Has my brother put it down?" Bai Huiqing looked into the distance and muttered.

"What if you can't let it go? A bowl of Meng Po soup, forget the past, why bother too much. Yao Huangdao.

"Forgotten from the past? Hehe......" Bai Huiqing laughed as if crying, "Since my brother has forgotten, what am I entangled for a hundred years?" ”

After a long time, Bai Huiqing stopped laughing, and her expression returned to calm. He saluted Yao Huang, "Thank you girl for waking me up." ”

Yao Huang turned sideways to avoid Bai Huiqing's salute: "Congratulations to Bai Gongzi for figuring it out." ”

Bai Huiqing smiled: "Help me say sorry to Brother Wenren, I missed my appointment next year, and I can't talk to him anymore." ”

"Brother-in-law will only be happy for Childe!"

……

"Second sister, let's go pick watermelons in the field!" Yao Qing shouted in the courtyard.

Yao Huang pushed open the window: "Hungry?" Is the watermelon ripe in the field? ”

"Cooked, cooked. The watermelon of Erhuzi's house was ripe yesterday, and I ate a bud at their house, but it was sweet! ”

"Delicious!" Yao Huang smiled and said, "Wait for me." ”

Yao Huang found a watermelon in the inner mountain, because the villagers did not dare to enter the inner mountain, they did not know the deliciousness of the watermelon. Yao Huang transplanted the watermelon vine to his yard, and after producing watermelons, he gave one to every household in the village. The villagers were overwhelmed by the delicious taste of watermelon and asked how to grow it. After Yao Huang taught everyone how to grow watermelons, the villagers took the land where they planted peanuts to grow watermelons - peanuts have been promoted to the whole country, and peanuts are grown in many places, and the villagers have not much benefit from planting peanuts - after the watermelons were planted in the first year. The villagers still sold it to Baiweiju. A watermelon is a tael of silver. The villagers made a lot of money. The second year. The villagers have expanded their cultivation to make enough money before others can grow watermelons.

"Let's go!" Yao Huang walked out of the room.

The July sun was extremely scorching, and the two sisters and brothers walked in the sun without even a drop of sweat, which made those who saw it envious. No one treats this situation as a strange situation, and the young people in their family have also learned martial arts, and they can not be afraid of heat and cold after practicing the inner martial arts of the Dao to the depths of the knowledge. Everyone saw the calm performance of the two sisters and brothers under the scorching sun, and they only had envy.

One and a half acres of the two acres of land where the Yao family grows peanuts are planted with watermelons, and the two of them walked a few steps to the melon field. I saw that the fields were green. Each watermelon is the size of a basketball, and the smallest one weighs five or six pounds.

"Second sister, hurry up and pick one!" Yao Qing jumped to his feet.

"Won't you pick yourself?"

Yao Qing smiled: "Brother, how can I have the ability of my sister, I'm afraid to pick an uncooked one, isn't that a waste?" ”

Yao Huang glanced at Yao Qing: "So let me do coolies?" Come with me, I'll teach you how to pick, and if you want to eat watermelon in the future, you can pick it yourself. ”

Yao Huang pulled Yao Qing to a watermelon: "When you choose a watermelon, you have to look at it three times." First look at the size, I don't need to say more. Second, look at the appearance. If the surface of the melon skin is smooth, the pattern is clear, the texture is obvious, and the bottom surface is yellow, which is a ripe melon; The surface is hairy, dull, spotted and unclear. It is an unripe melon. Third, look at the melon stalk, the green one is the ripe melon; Those that are black-brown, furry and fall off, curved and brittle, and the tips of the curled whiskers turn yellow and withered, are melons that are picked when they are not ripe; The stalk of the melon has dried up, it is a "dead vine melon", it is a bad melon, and it cannot be eaten. ”

Yao Huang tapped the skin of the watermelon with his fingers: "Did you hear that?" The cause of the banging sound is ripe melon; When you hear the sound of dangdang, it is not yet mature; If it's a popping sound, it's an overripe watermelon. ”

Yao Qing nodded: "Taught." ”

"Don't pick this watermelon yet."

Yao Qing hurriedly picked the watermelon that Yao Huang had just used to make teaching materials for him.

"I've picked the watermelon too, let's go home!"

"What's wrong with you, old man?" Aunt Li's panicked screams came, and the two sisters and brothers glanced at each other and hurriedly ran over.

"Fourth aunt, what's wrong with the fourth uncle?" The two siblings ran to the edge of the Li family's field, and saw Uncle Li fainting on the field stalk, and Aunt Li scolded Uncle Li on the face and called him.

"I don't know what happened to you, I was working in the field with your fourth uncle, and your fourth uncle suddenly fainted, and I don't know what happened to him." Aunt Li's face was full of worry.

"Fourth aunt, don't panic, I think the fourth uncle should be suffering from heat stroke, send him home first." Yao Huang saw that Uncle Li's symptoms were very similar to heat stroke, and hurriedly comforted Aunt Li. As long as heat stroke is treated promptly, it will recover quickly.

"I'll carry the fourth uncle!" Yao Qing stuffed the watermelon into Yao Huang's arms, and bent over to carry Fourth Uncle Li on his back.

Yao Qing doesn't look young, his body has not yet grown, but his internal strength is deep, and carrying a big man is as easy as carrying a small baby.

"I'll go first." Yao Qing jumped up, performed light skills, and ran back to Li's house with Uncle Li on his back.

"Fourth aunt, let's go too." Yao Huang held Aunt Li's arm, also performed light skills, and entered the door of the Li family with Yao Qing's front and back feet.

Li Yunxi's three brothers were not at home, and the three daughters-in-law also panicked when they saw their father-in-law in a coma. Yao Huang drank the three young daughters-in-law and assigned them work: let Wanyun take care of Aunt Li, let Biwen go to the well to fetch a basin of well water, and let Parsley go to a jar of salt and sugar water. The well water is cooled and the salt and sugar water replenishes the water...... Fourth Uncle Li's body temperature finally returned to normal, and he woke up.

"That's it!" Yao Huang said to the four women with a smile.

"Erya, thanks to your brothers and sisters today! Otherwise, your fourth uncle's life will be over. The five members of the Li family are grateful to the two sisters and brothers.

"Fourth uncle, don't say such an outrageous thing. Your body is not yet fully well, rest for a few more days. Fourth aunt, you are the same, don't go to the field at noon in the future, such a big sun, it is easy to get heat stroke. Yao Huang advised.

"Zhilu Dao, we will never go out at noon in the future." Aunt Li Si assured with palpitations.

"Then let's go home first!"

"Let's leave after lunch!" Biwen left two sisters and brothers.

"No need, the eldest sister has already prepared a meal, waiting for us to go back to eat!" Yao Huang smiled and refused Biwen's invitation, and went home with Yao Qing with a watermelon.

As soon as he got home, Yao Qing grabbed the watermelon and put it in the well water in a wooden bucket to freeze. The water in the deep well is warm in winter and cool in summer, and this watermelon is frozen in the well water for an afternoon, and it is very cold when it is eaten at night.

"People are used to work, and if they hide at home at noon and don't do anything, they won't get used to it. And the sun is very strong in the afternoon! Yao Hong frowned after listening to Yao Huang's suggestion, she often washes clothes after lunch, if she doesn't do anything at home, when will she leave her clothes to wash? (To be continued......)
