CHAPTER XVI

He would go to that place every Sunday and wait, no matter how windy or rainy, it would always be thunderous. When he is busy, he will finish everything he should be busy in advance, and definitely free up Sunday time. He will wait a little longer when he is fine, and he will wait a little less when he is fine.

He waited and waited like that, and before he knew it, he was waiting for the wax moon, and he was still the same as usual, and on Sunday, he would go to the paddy field in the backyard. He didn't know what such a wait meant to him, he just knew that as soon as she appeared, everything about him would make sense.

"What are you doing here?"

"Didn't do anything! Let's take a look at the paddy fields. ”

"It's all winter, what do you see in the paddy fields, could it be that you are looking at rice."

"Where did you come from, by the way, why are you back, you are on vacation?"

"Sort of!"

"What do you mean?"

"Originally, it was a holiday, but in order to catch the promotion rate, I was left behind, saying that it was tutoring. Today is the only day off I have. ”

"And when are you going to take the holidays?"

"I haven't said this yet, it depends on the specific situation. I guess how to get the New Year's Day. ”

"Are you okay now?"

"It's okay, I was going to go to your house to play with you, but I didn't expect to meet you here."

"That's okay, I'll take you to burn peanuts."

"Now there are peanuts to burn, and they usually burn the peanut stalks after picking peanuts!"

"I just said something wrong, I took you to roast peanuts."

"I heard you right! I've heard of boiled peanuts, fried peanuts, but I've never heard of roasted peanuts. ”

"Didn't you tell me not to give up my curiosity at any time! Just follow me anyway, I'll definitely give you both a feast for your eyes and a feast for your mouth. ”

So saying, he went home and filled a cloth bag with half a bag of peanuts that he would have kept as seeds, and then took a match, and went back to the paddy field, and with her to the base of their base (a wasteland where they often went together). As usual, he had everything ready, and she just had to wait to see and eat.

"How are you going to roast it?"

"Just roast it like roasting sweet potatoes."

"You're not afraid that they'll all be roasted by then, like the sweet potatoes that roasted that time."

"Don't worry! No, I've got experience. ”

"You've baked it."

"I've tried it many times, I don't want to make a fuss in front of you again, or you have to say that you don't study hard, you see, you can't even bake a peanut."

"What's the matter, I'll just say that, you still take it seriously."

"I'm not just saying that."

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it, you can bake it!"

"Not yet."

"The fire has been extinguished for a while, and if you don't bake it, there will be no temperature."

"You have to believe me, I'm experienced."

"Good, good, I believe in you."

After a few minutes or so, I saw that he used a thick and long dry branch that he had picked up before, spread the ashes that had long been extinguished, spread them evenly, and then sprinkled the peanuts evenly on it, and then gathered the ashes that had just been spread together, looking so professional.

"Then when can we eat?"

"It'll be fine in a while."

And this moment seems to pass relatively long, as if a few classes have already been taken.

"Are you ready to eat?"

"With my long-term experience of focusing on grilling, I should be able to do it now."

Before he could taste it, he saw that she had already pulled one out of a dead branch, then removed the shell, and put the peanuts in his mouth.

"Why does it taste weird, it's not as soft as boiled peanuts, it's not as crispy as fried peanuts, it's more like it's raw. Is this what roasted peanuts should taste like? ”

"It shouldn't be! I'll try one. ”

So saying, he plucked a peanut from the ashes with the dead branch in his hand, removed the shell, and put it in his mouth, and it was not long before he vomited it. He had tasted this taste when he had done the experiment before, and he had diarrhea because he had eaten a few more grains.

"You're throwing up, don't eat it."

Hearing his order, she spat out the strange-smelling peanuts.

"Don't tell me you're inexperienced."

"No, I've tried it many times."

But the facts are in front of him, and he can't argue. So he plucked another peanut, removed the shell, put the peanut in his mouth, and found that it still tasted the same, so he spit it out again.

"Are you using me as your test subject? Why do you like to pit me so much? ”

"You've ever seen a pit man even pit yourself! I ate both of them. ”

"And what do you say is going on?"

"You let me think about it."
