Chapter 57: I'm full of melons



"Oh, then why are you carrying such a big bowl? I thought you were going to take away a bowl of my stewed pig's trotters!"

Although she really thought so in her heart, Mrs. Qian couldn't say it!

"That won't do. What kind of person have I become? My husband passed away early, and I raised my son single-handedly. But he's useless. There are three children in the family, and we don't even have enough meat to eat."

"Your wife doesn't work? The salary of a third-level worker is much higher than that of my Qinghuan."

After three consecutive KOs, Mrs. Qian's face started to turn green.

Song Jiayu laughed so hard that she slammed the table. "Oh my god, every word you say hits the nail on the head. Old Madam Qian just throwing a tantrum isn't enough."

Seeing that they refused to give her money, Old Lady Qian had no choice but to sit on the ground. She had really rolled on the ground before, otherwise where did Qian Youcai learn it from? She sat on the steps in front of the Xu family's door, opened her mouth and started to howl:

"Old Qian, you left too early. Now everyone is bullying me! It's just a few pig's trotters. My little grandson is greedy. What's wrong with giving a few pieces to a child?"

"You, the Xu family, are bullying people. You are so cruel! I won't leave today. Let everyone in the compound see the true face of the Xu family."

Inside the room, Xu Qinghuan rolled up her sleeves, her forehead furrowed, ready to go out and deal with the mess. Old Madam Xu clapped her hands on the back of her head, "You silly granddaughter, when things get tough, you just roll up your sleeves and beat people up like your dad does. Last time you beat up the deputy director's son, you felt good about it, but you were pushed to the margins of the factory. Why don't you learn your lesson?"

In the end times, there is no need to beat around the bush. If you offend someone, just see who is stronger and kill them. Xu Qinghuan was reborn in this world after his death. Everything is good, except for the quarrels between people.

"Grandma, what do you say we should do?"

"Look at me."

As Mrs. Xu spoke, she picked up a basin of water and a ladle in her hand. She walked out of the house without saying anything and sprinkled the water on the ground. However, the water always managed to splash onto Mrs. Qian.

"What are you doing?" Old Mrs. Qian, who was splashed with water, quickly stood up.

Mrs. Xu seemed to have just noticed someone. "Oh, my eyesight isn't very good. I saw you squatting at my door begging for food. I'm sorry, the ground is too dry. I'll sprinkle some water on it to reduce the dust."

Then there was another puddle of water on the ground, and Old Mrs. Qian had to step back, otherwise her cloth shoes would also get wet.

Over and over again, in the end, Mrs. Xu didn't need to scoop the water, she just poured it with her hands, and all the remaining water spilled out. Mrs. Qian didn't have time to dodge, and her pants got a lot of wet.

"Next time, if there is dust at the door of my house, I will sprinkle water like this. It's fine and done." After saying this, Mrs. Xu walked into the main room and closed the door.

Only old lady Qian was left in the yard, soaked to the skin.

Maybe he felt ashamed and walked away in shame, with anger and shame in his eyes, ready to take revenge next time.

In modern times, this would obviously be accompanied by a classic quote from Wolf: I will be back!

“Hahahahahahahaha…”

In her imagination, she replaced Wolf's face with Old Lady Qian's face, and then used Wolf's body. Song Jiayu laughed so hard that she shook all over and lay on the table holding her stomach.

Jiang Baizhou felt that this person was so lively. Life together always made people feel the beauty of living in this world. He smiled slightly and handed him a glass of water.

"Stop choking on your laughter!"

"Whoever laughs will choke—cough cough cough cough"

Who knows how extreme happiness can lead to sorrow? Song Jiayu choked on her saliva. She finally finished coughing, her face red from coughing. She picked up the enamel cup and drank some water. When everything calmed down, she said, "Don't say such accurate words next time."

Jiang Baizhou was left in tears and laughter by this series of reactions. He agreed: "Okay, next time I will say something vague."

[Complete the quest to watch Old Lady Qian and Old Lady Xu, who can fight for 300 rounds, eat melons. Successfully check in with Qian Da Niu, Xu Wenying, and Xu Qinghuan. Rewards: 10 kilograms of cornmeal, 10 rolls of toilet paper, and a weekly combat skills training card.]

She remembered that because of the fighting skills learning card, she should observe Xu Qinghuan carefully...ah, she had completely forgotten. Never mind. If he was a spy, he would be exposed sooner or later. What's more, Lin Xue was the only technician from the scientific research department left in the compound. According to the factory's confidentiality measures for the scientific research department, it would be difficult for an announcer to get in.

It's more likely that this Xu Qinghuan is the same as her, having traveled through time. Ancient times? Interstellar? Or the apocalypse? Anyway, it's a guess, so let's have something exciting.

Coming back to her senses, she thought of the third task of the day. She smiled and put a piece of steamed pork with rice flour into Jiang Baizhou's bowl. In the tone of Pan Jinlian calling Wu Dalang to take medicine in the TV series, she said, "Baizhou, come and eat meat. Eating more meat is good for your health."

I watched Jiang Baizhou eat it with my own eyes, and then the long-awaited sound of the system reward came.

[Complete the task of satisfying Jiang Baizhou's desire to eat meat, successfully check in with Jiang Baizhou, and be rewarded with a Wood Energy Leaf]

It's great to get the wood-type supernatural leaves, but at level 1, a leaf can only increase by 2%, and it will take fifty days to reach level 2, so there's still a long way to go.

Don't be in a hurry, think about the second task, it has a wide scope.

“Hmm…”

She stuffed a piece of steamed pork with rice flour into her mouth. The juicy pork was wrapped in the fragrant rice flour. As her tongue tasted the flavor, her lively eyes gleamed with satisfaction. She ate it in one bite and said coquettishly, "I want another piece."

Jiang Baizhou was caught off guard and asked, "What were you thinking about just now? Why were you so absorbed in it?"

"I was thinking about the play I just watched~ The steamed pork with rice flour is so delicious. Hey, it's worthy of me." Song Jiayu boasted about herself, but the fourteen days of cooking she learned from Chef Xu were not in vain.

Lunch was the most satisfying meal she had had in the past ten days. She had been eating leafy vegetables for ten days, and suddenly she started eating meat and found she was quite craving it. The two of them finished the plate of steamed pork with rice flour. Fortunately, there was still a lot of pickled fish and cuttlefish soup left, otherwise she would have been starving because she didn't want to cook in the evening.

I was very full after eating the melon at noon, but I didn’t expect that the melon in the evening was even more delicious.

To be honest, when Song Jiayu looked at Xiaoman like that, she didn't think she was a very good person. Instead, she felt that in feudal society, the status of women had been suppressed for thousands of years. It was only after the end of the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, and the end of war, that people kept saying that women hold up half the sky, but that oppression had been engraved in women's genes and bones. For example, Xiaoman, who came to find Xu Qinghuan, was a typical woman who adhered to the three obediences and four virtues.

Outside the gate of Compound No. 14, stood a young woman with a protruding belly. She was good-looking, with big eyes and fair skin. These two features made her a little beauty in that era, otherwise she would not have been pursued by the deputy factory director's son.
