Fifty-two: Forget your worries
I gave my neighbor a couple of watermelons, but my grandfather was killed because of it.
Everyone who eats watermelon is to blame.
It wasn't until that fire that I made a secret decision.

I went to the fields as usual to take care of the watermelons.
This watermelon field is all the hope for me and my grandfather.
I began to count the number of watermelons, and I couldn't stop rejoicing when I looked at the huge watermelons.
This time it will definitely be sold for a lot of money, and grandpa's illness will be saved.
A few pieces are vacated in a melon vine, which is particularly eye-catching.
I think there were a few watermelons in the best condition.
I bent down and looked at the neat melon vines, which were obviously cut off.
Immediately anger burned in my heart that someone had stolen my melon.
The village is full of neighbors and relatives, and there is no way to confront each other at all. Forget it, I should have suffered a loss, I comforted myself.
Just as I was going back, I saw a figure hidden behind the melon shed.
I immediately rushed over and pulled him out.
[Okay, you little kid stole my melon.] ]
As he spoke, he pretended to beat him.
Tie Dan was startled by me, and the watermelon he was holding fell to the ground and fell to pieces.
[It's not me, it's not me, it's my grandma who told me to steal, don't hit me.] ]
I was stunned and asked rhetorically, [Is it true that your grandmother asked you to steal melons, are you lying?] ]
Tie Dan shook his head violently, his snot snot.
I have some mixed feelings in my heart.
A few days ago, the watermelons were just ripe, and I thought of Grandma Wang's usual care for me and my grandfather, so I picked a few of the largest watermelons and sent them to her, which was a return for kindness.
Unexpectedly, she asked her grandson to steal watermelons.
I felt a little uncomfortable, and I couldn't bear to blame him when I saw Tie Dan crying, so I led him to the village.
Grandma Wang was sitting at the entrance of the village chatting with a few women.
Seeing that I was carrying an iron egg, my face was a little embarrassed.
[Yo, Ye girl.] Iron Egg: What's wrong with this? ]
I pushed Tie Dan and asked him to go over, [It's nothing, it's just that Tie Dan fell down in the melon field just now, and I brought him over by the way.] ]
Grandma Wang lowered her face and scolded him in a low voice.
Then he said to me with a smile, [Ye girl, the watermelons you gave a few days ago are so sweet, my wife still can't forget them.] ]
When a few women next to them heard Grandma Wang say this, they hurriedly discussed.
Grandma Wang bragged to them about how sweet the watermelon was, and that she had never eaten such a delicious watermelon.
One of the women looked at me and said, [When Ye Yatou grows up, she will know how to honor your grandmother Wang. We also watched you grow up, and I don't know how to give us a few to taste, it's really ignorant. ]
I pretended not to understand what they meant, [Grandma Wang helped my grandfather a lot when I was not free, and it was also appropriate to give her a few watermelons.] I'm just waiting for the watermelon to sell for money and treat my grandfather. ]
Their smiles froze and they didn't say anything more.
Seeing that the atmosphere was stiff, Grandma Wang hurriedly spoke.
[Not all neighbors, as the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors.] It's not a big deal to give them a few watermelons to try. ]
I nodded, [What Grandma Wang said is, if you have time, you should take care of your grandson, don't go down the wrong path.] ]
When Grandma Wang saw my attitude, she was so angry that her mouth was crooked.
I turned and left.

Grandpa sat at the door waiting for me to come home.
When he saw me coming back, he hurriedly stood up tremblingly against the wall.
I ran up to him and grabbed him, [why didn't Grandpa wait for me at home.] ]
He pushed my hand away and said, "I'm fine, I just want to look forward to your return soon.] ]
I helped my grandfather to lie on the bed and covered him with the quilt.
[How are the watermelons growing this year?] It's all my fault for this broken body. ]
