Hearing Su Ruanruan's agreement, the quadruplets cheered a little and hurried to follow.

The mother and her two children went out of the door. As soon as they went out, they saw Huang Meijuan and Li Jinbao standing outside playing diagonally opposite the house.

Ever since Su Runruan went crazy and beat up Huang Meijuan last time, Huang Meijuan started avoiding Su Runruan.

It looked like he was hiding from the god of plague.

If it is possible to avoid meeting, then don’t meet. If it is unavoidable to meet, Huang Meijuan will definitely leave as soon as possible.

The same is true this time.

As soon as Huang Meijuan saw Su Runrun, the smile on her face disappeared instantly, and she pulled Li Jinbao back to the yard.

But this time Li Jinbao didn't listen.

Li Jinbao struggled and was unwilling to go back, his eyes fixed on the watermelons in the quadruplets' hands.

"I want to eat watermelon, too, Mom. I want to eat watermelon, too."

Li Jinbao is the same age as the quadruplets. He can now speak fluently and express his wishes clearly.

Huang Meijuan was so frightened that she turned pale and pulled Li Jinbao's arm with both hands.

"What are you eating? What else do you want to eat? You might as well just eat me."

Even if Li Jinbao was unwilling to leave, due to his age, his strength was far inferior to that of Huang Meijuan.

Although he struggled desperately, he was finally dragged into the yard by Huang Meijuan.

Before the courtyard door was closed, Li Jinbao's crying could be heard.

"Wow wow wow! I want to eat watermelon, I want to eat watermelon!"

When a child of this age cries at the top of his lungs, the sound is like a devil's sound piercing the ears, giving the listener a splitting headache.

The quadruplets have never cried like this since they were born.

But because she lived diagonally across the street from Li Jinbao and his family, Li Jinbao had been crying like this since he was a child, and Su Runrun had long been accustomed to hearing it.

Listening to Li Jinbao's crying, Su Runrun's expression did not change at all, and her steps were still very steady.

Even the quadruplets just glanced over there curiously and quickly looked away, with no intention of sharing the watermelon at all.

It is certainly a good thing for children to know how to share, but it does not mean they have to share with everyone.

Especially for someone like Li Jinbao, we can't just let bygones be bygones and give it to him.

If we really repay evil with kindness, then how should we repay kindness?

Su Ruanruan and her son turned a deaf ear to Li Jinbao's crying and went straight into the yard next door.

The yard was not closed. It was noon, and the three Hongya siblings were doing their homework in the house, while Niu Guifang was cooking in the kitchen. The yard was quite quiet.

Su Ruanruan walked inside and raised her voice.

"Sister-in-law, I'm here to bring you some melon."

Almost as soon as the words fell, Niu Guifang poked her head out of the kitchen, "Soft girl, what melon? Tell me quickly."

Hearing this, Su Ruanruan was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted.

This melon is not that melon, Niu Guifang has misunderstood!

Su Ruanruan couldn't help laughing, quickened her pace and arrived at the kitchen door.

"I'm here to bring some melon to my sister-in-law."

As she spoke, Su Ruanruan handed the watermelon in her hand forward.

Niu Guifang looked at the big watermelon in Su Ruoran's hand and started laughing too, her face turning red.

"So you're talking about this melon! It's only the beginning of summer, can we eat the melon? How come it's ripe so early?"

They also grow watermelons here, but it’s basically midsummer before it’s time to eat them.

Although she knew that Su Ruanruan had planted a yard of watermelons, Niu Guifang had always thought that there was still time to wait! She didn't expect to have watermelons to eat so soon.

"Didn't I tell my sister-in-law before that this watermelon is a new variety, different from the ones we ate before."

Niu Guifang nodded and reached out to take the watermelon. "Since it's a new variety, you must taste it carefully."

As she said this, she took a knife and started cutting the watermelon.

The three brothers and sisters who were doing their homework in the east room ran out directly after hearing this, looking at the big watermelon eagerly.

Niu Guifang glanced at the three siblings with amusement, "I haven't called you yet, but you ran out. You ran really fast."

Although he said this, his movements in cutting the watermelon did not slow down at all.

As soon as the sharp blade touched the melon rind, the melon broke into two halves.

Looking at the bright red watermelon flesh and the very few white watermelon seeds, Niu Guifang was very surprised.

“Why is this watermelon growing so well?”

"So this is a new variety, sister-in-law, try it quickly."

"Do I even need to taste it? I can tell it's delicious just by looking at it."

As she spoke, Niu Guifang cut the watermelon into pieces and handed them to Hongya and her two siblings first. Then she picked up two pieces and put one of them in front of Su Ruanruan.

Su Ruanruan did not refuse and took it.

Seeing Niu Guifang take a big bite, Su Ruanruan smiled and asked, "Sister-in-law, what do you think of the taste of this watermelon?"

Niu Guifang nodded repeatedly and took bites of the watermelon one after another, and had no time to answer.

Only after she finished eating a piece of watermelon in one go did Niu Guifang breathe a sigh of relief.

"It's delicious! It's really delicious! I've never eaten such a delicious watermelon in my life."

"Sister, I'm not exaggerating, but if you take this watermelon to the county town to sell, you can at least get 10 cents per pound."

Don't underestimate 1 cent per pound.

Such a watermelon weighs about ten kilograms, which means that one watermelon can be sold for one yuan.

In this era, this price is already quite high.

"Even if you plant one acre of watermelon, you can probably get a hundred of them, right? But that's only a little over 100 yuan!"

Niu Guifang became more and more excited as she spoke, and her eyes began to shine.

Su Ruanruan just looked at her with a smile and didn't say anything.

After a while, Niu Guifang calmed down and the excitement on her face gradually faded.

"What a pity! All the land is used to grow crops now. I won't be allowed to grow watermelons."

Niu Guifang's words touched Su Runrun's heart.

In fact, there are a lot of wastelands now, and it is not impossible to reclaim them.

But even if the wasteland is reclaimed, it will be used to grow crops and will belong to the public, and the profits cannot belong to individuals.

If you want to open an orchard or build a farm, you will have to wait another seven or eight years.

Su Ruanruan smiled and patted Niu Guifang on the shoulder, "Sister-in-law, why do you think so much? We don't lack money to spend. We can grow some watermelons in our yard and eat them however we want.

If you plant too many crops, you will have to get up early and stay up late to watch over them. You will also have to be busy all day long. How tiring it is, don’t you think? ”

"You are right." Niu Guifang nodded in agreement, "I just said that casually."
