"Alas! That, aunt, big ...... Mother, what is this? Why is the skin green on the outside and red on the inside? It's still so big! ”

Suddenly, a delicate voice came, which startled Yue Jiuyue, who was picking watermelons.

Sure enough, it is worthy of everyone's beauty, even if it is in the mountains, it is quiet when you walk.

"This is called watermelon, I heard that it was brought from the West, so it is called that."

As for whether it was transmitted from a Western country or from a western city in this country, Yue Jiujiu did not explain it carefully.

"Oh, what's this for? Is it a vegetable? ”

The delicate eldest lady continued to ask curiously, she had eaten the cut cantaloupe, and she had also eaten the boiled winter melon, this kind of melon, it was the first time she had seen it!

"Watermelon is not a vegetable, I heard the seed seller say, this is a fruit in the West, put it in the well in the summer, you can also use ice, eat a piece in the hot day, that is called a cold heart, the heart is flying, it is definitely the best fruit to beat the heat!"

As he spoke, Yue Jiujiu couldn't help but miss the little beauty of eating watermelon and chasing dramas.

Although it is tiring and hot to work part-time during the day, I can buy half a watermelon on the way from work, without a refrigerator or well, just soak it in the cold water in the faucet, and then take a spoon and hold the watermelon to dig and eat, and use the borrowed members to chase dramas. ”

"Really? Auntie, can you give me a few? We haven't eaten this fruit yet, so we want to try it. ”

Miss Jiao said, and handed it to the maid beside her with a look, and the maid handed Yue Jiujiu a bulging purse, and said politely:

"Auntie, I don't know if I can divide a few more of our young ladies, you also know that there are a lot of people who came here this time, and it is difficult to divide the watermelon less."

Yue Jiujiu passively took the purse and couldn't help but move his fingers.

It's not a copper plate.

It's like broken silver!

With such a purse of silver, how can you have a pound, right?

However, now that she knows that her watermelon is unique and does not sell at a sky-high price, how can she be worthy of this "unique".

She reluctantly returned the silver the way it was, and explained the bad days:

"This young lady, it's really not that I don't want to sell it to Kai, but Kai should have heard that the sweet potatoes I found were sent to the capital, so I was rewarded by the emperor with five hundred taels of silver.

I am grateful to the emperor for his reward, so I look for these seeds everywhere that we don't have here, just to plant some more food and fruits, so that I can present them to the emperor to express my gratitude to the emperor.

So, this watermelon, I just saw this cracked, I was afraid that it would break, so I had to pick it. As for the other watermelons, I thought that when they were ripe, I would hand them over to the Tang County Order, so that the Tang County Order could help present them to the emperor. ”

Yue Jiujie was grateful to the emperor, so she tried everything to express her gratitude, so that this young lady Jiao really couldn't do anything difficult for a strong man.

After all, this lady wants to present the watermelon to the emperor, she is the daughter of a nine-grade sesame official, where does she dare to grab things from the emperor, and the nine clans don't plan to ask for it?

"Eh, auntie, I was abrupt, please forgive aunt!"

Miss Jiao's white and tender little face was flushed, and she couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
