Chapter 526: Eating Watermelon on a Hot Day
"Big girl, are you thirsty?"
Yun Yi said with the last glimmer of hope, he remembered that there were only three teapots in the courtyard, the professors brought two, Wukong brought one, if you want to drink water, you have to run in person, Wukong is smart, and he doesn't dare to let it come with a warm pot.
"Well, when my uncle said that, I also felt a little thirsty!"
The eldest girl also smiled embarrassedly, seeing the crying and mourning expression on Yun Yi's face, she knew that Yun Yi was unwilling to go out of the sun to be exposed to the sun, so she propped her hands on the mat and got up and said:
"If you're thirsty, uncle, I'll go back and pour water for you to drink!"
"Forget it, you just lie down, don't get faint if you are weak in such a big sun!"
Yun Yi hurriedly pressed the big girl, he was afraid of the sun, but he was even more afraid of his daughter-in-law being exposed to the sun.
"Who else is thirsty?"
Starting from the mat, Yun Yi looked at the three sisters and asked.
The three sisters all raised their hands, Yunyi patted his head, stood up reluctantly, glanced at the hot sun, stretched out his hand to feel the hot sun outside, and finally realized Wukong's mood at this time.
"Yunzi, bring a few watermelons from home to eat, put the watermelons in the water on such a day and ice them for a while, I believe it tastes good!"
Yunyi's father looked at the sky and said to his son by the way.
Yunyi sighed again, his father had spoken, could he still not go?
After looking at the scorching sun with a bitter face, he reflexively picked up the mat and prepared to run home with his head on it.
"Brother Yunyi, I'll go with you, two people can hold more watermelons at a time!"
Li Xuying suddenly got up from the mat, got under the Yunyi mat, and said indifferently.
Yun Yi was stunned for a moment, looked at her beautiful face, smiled bitterly in her heart, patted Li Xujun on the shoulder and said:
"Forget it, Sister Xuan. On this hot day, you should rest in the shade of the tree, girls should protect their skin! ”
Li Xuying was reluctant to leave, seeing that Yunyi was reluctant to take her, she suddenly turned her head, left the mat silently, and walked silently in the direction of the small courtyard under the hot sun.
Yunyi hurriedly pulled the stubborn girl back, looked back at Wukong, who was sitting leisurely on the ground and knocking melon seeds, and slapped the lazy guy on the head. Glaring at him, he reprimanded:
"Wukong, don't be lazy, you kid, hurry up and follow Xiaobai to the courtyard to pick up the watermelon!"
"Squeak!"
Wukong's protest squeaked at Yunyi a few times, and he was very dissatisfied with Yunyi's casual slapping on the head; But this kind of protest can only be a protest, and if anything, it can only be a 'serious' protest.
Xiaobai didn't complain, Yun Yi obediently waited aside as soon as he gave the order, and then ran towards the small courtyard with Wukong on his shoulders.
Watching Yun Yi support the two animals in the yard to find watermelons. But he re-laid the mat and lay on the ground to sleep, and everyone in the shade of the tree couldn't help but shake their heads and laugh, Ya's club was inevitably too lazy.
"Yunyi, you kid is so lazy. I wondered, how could such a good girl follow you? ”
Among the masters, Chen Ang, who pays more attention to appearance, saw Yun Yi lying in the shade of a tree. Can't help but joke with good intentions.
"Ahem, you don't understand this master, this is not called laziness. This is called enjoying the joy of life, not being disturbed by the world, not bending over for blockages, and not being burdened by the hot sun! ”
Yun Yi didn't care about Master Chen Ang's kind jokes, and replied in a hermit's tone, making a kind of master laugh.
Talking and laughing, in the dust and fog under the scorching sun in the distance, Wukong held a watermelon, sat on Xiaobai's body and rushed into the shade of the tree.
"Wukong did a good job, this watermelon is quite ripe!"
As a result, the watermelon in Wukong's arms, Yunyi knocked on the watermelon, and the sound maturity was good, so he patted Wukong's head lightly to show his reward, and then continued to take it back to hug the watermelon.
Whether the watermelon is ripe or not is the key factor in determining whether it is delicious or not; And the technique of selecting watermelons is a very strange problem, watermelons can be seen everywhere in the world except the North and South Poles, but when it comes to the most able to choose ripe watermelons, in addition to the Chinese, I am afraid that animals are the most picky.
"Scratch!"
The blade of the multi-functional knife that he carried with him was gently cut, and suddenly the six-pound watermelon was split into two pieces, and the bright red melon pulp and sweet and greasy juice flowed in all directions.
"This watermelon is so sweet, it's really natural!"
Ma Beiwang took a small piece of watermelon, tasted it and praised it.
"That's right, don't look at Yunyi, this kid is very lazy, this ability is not small, the animals in the yard are smart and clever by him, the vegetables are refreshing and delicious, the chickens are alive and jumping, this kind of watermelon is also so delicious, the kid is really capable!"
Li Qiubai smiled lightly, looking at Yun Yi's eyes full of appreciation.
More than six catties of watermelon, a small piece per person, can be eaten in two bites, but thanks to Xiaobai's climactic running speed, another watermelon was soon delivered
After eating a few watermelons in a row, everyone was not so anxious, so they tied a few watermelons that were sent again with a net, tied them to the bottom of the lake with stones, and only after five or six minutes did they catch a few watermelons.
Touching the tentacles, the watermelon placed at the bottom of Qingxi Lake at a depth of five meters is very cold at this time, mainly because in the direct flow of Qingshan Creek, in addition to some springs are hot springs, there are also many cold springs, and the physical effect of cold and heat makes the cold spring water flowing into Qingxi Lake at the bottom of the lake, making the bottom of the lake extremely cold.
"Hmm, the watermelon frozen in this lake is really good, the ice is sweet and refreshing!"
Under such a hot sun, under the shade of this cool breeze, eating this cold watermelon, let the sweet and refreshing juice flow all the way down the throat into the stomach, so that the whole body is in this cold and comfortable feeling, lying on the mat and holding the watermelon Yunyi really feels so cool.
Yun Yi finished eating a piece of watermelon, looked at the many watermelons still placed on the small table over there, and beckoned to Wukong, the clever Wukong immediately put the watermelon he was holding, and the monkey head ran to the small table, holding a large piece of watermelon in both paws, and sent it to Yun Yi who was lying on the mat on the side.
"You kid, you don't even bother to eat, how can a young man be so lazy!"
Ma Beiwang pointed at Yun Yi and smiled softly. The relationship between the two is very good, and they don't have to worry too much when they talk.
"Ma Lao, you don't understand this, this is called the style of celebrities and scholars, aren't they all like this for the great talents of the Eastern Jin Dynasty?"
Yun Yi waved his hand indifferently and continued to nibble on the watermelon, but because he was lying on the mat and eating the watermelon, some juice flowed to his neck.
Seeing this, the eldest girl sitting on the side hurriedly took out a handkerchief from her pocket. Carefully help Yunyi rub it.
After eating a piece of watermelon, Yun Yi handed the watermelon skin to Xiao Bai and let Xiao Bai throw it into the open space of the sun in the courtyard to expose it to the sun, so as to prevent the watermelon skin from being placed in the shade to attract flies.
Looking at Yun Yi's leisurely appearance, Master Chen Ang couldn't help but laugh jokingly again:
"Yunyi, you kid will really enjoy it, you have been lying here still since you came, there are monkeys holding watermelons, and eating watermelons is still monkeys. Throwing a melon peel is also for Xiaobai to complete, you guy is so lazy, how can you make a career in the future! ”
"Master Chen, don't you think. Is it a very unpleasant thing to talk about a career in the green clouds? With such a beautiful scenery, how good it is to live a leisurely and leisurely life, even if you are working hard and succeeding, no matter how much money you make. What could be more laid-back than this? ”
Yun Yi shook his head lightly and smiled, that look of leisurely strolling was quite a bit dusty.
"Ha Lu Ha. Yun Yi is right, the mountains here are green, the streams are murmuring, the lake is rippling, and the weeping willows are breezy; This kind of weather, not in the air-conditioned room, not in the noisy city, blowing this cool breeze, eating the watermelon from the cold water, this kind of life, is the true meaning of life! ”
Li Qiubai held a piece of big watermelon and gnawed it indifferently, ignoring the watermelon juice on his face, looking like an old farmer; The smell of this cool watermelon, this refreshing feeling, and this different environment made Li Qiubai smile heartily.
"Yes, Brother Qiu Bai is right, only such a scene should be the place where my generation lives and cultivates his self!"
Master Chen Ang was stunned for a moment, then he smiled, and touched the watermelon juice on his mouth without care, stood up from the mat, held a weeping willow swaying in the wind, looked at the leisurely green mountains in the distance, and this group of friends who were like rural wild husbands, coupled with Yun Yi's leisurely posture, a strange feeling suddenly rose in his heart, and he suddenly stood there, thinking about things in a daze.
"Don't make any noise, Brother Chen Ang seems to have some understanding!"
Ma Beiwang, who had been laughing and groaning, hurriedly reminded in a whisper, and everyone immediately noticed Chen Ang's strange expression, and immediately stopped talking, just looked at Chen Ang quietly.
After a while, Chen Ang's eyes suddenly became excited, and he muttered: "It should be like this, it should be like this."
As he spoke, Chen Ang, a master with a somewhat excited expression, walked quickly to the Go table placed by the lake, took out a few pieces of rice paper inside, took out the brush and inkstone, and after grinding it three or two times, he painted.
The momentum is like flowing water, the demeanor is like a fascination, the pen walks the dragon and snake, the heart moves with the pen, and it didn't take long for him to drop the brush and look straight at the painting he had just made.
When everyone saw that his painting was finished, they hurriedly ignored the watermelon juice on their bodies and rushed to the table to look at the painting.
After a long while, the masters who had been staring at this painting for a long time were amazed together and said:
"Brother Chen Ang's painting is really a work of birth, congratulations to Brother Chen Ang for breaking through the realm, since then, there has been another master of artistic conception in the landscape figure painting industry!" (To be continued.) )
