As June approaches, the weather becomes hotter and hotter.
Fortunately, there is a refrigerator and ceiling fan at home. Lu Guanshan also bought an oscillating fan specially. Plus, it is an old house, so it is not particularly hot.
Yu Li didn't dare eat too much ice, so Lu Guanshan made some mini mung bean popsicles for her. Each one was only enough for two or three bites, but it was very satisfying and thirst-quenching.
Grandma Lu couldn't sit still, so she planted a lot of cucumbers, watermelons, and tomatoes in the yard. They were all bearing fruit one after another, and the red and green colors looked very lively.
The plastic film in the vegetable greenhouse had been removed a long time ago. This year, a new variety of watermelon was planted, and the first batch has already matured.
The red flesh of the melon is crunchy and full of sweet juice. It smells fragrant and is so delicious to eat!
Yu Li swore that this was the most delicious watermelon she had ever eaten in her two lifetimes!
Think about it, although we lived in the high-tech era in our previous life, sometimes we could buy watermelon at a high price whenever we wanted, but all the watermelons were not as delicious as the pure natural watermelons without genetic modification, drugs or sodium cyclamate now!
Every time Lu Guanshan eats watermelon, he can eat the whole thing, but he always remembers to scoop out the sweetest part of the watermelon core and put it in an enamel jar to make watermelon juice, and then add two small pieces of ice.
At night, when Yu Li was working on her homework, she took it and placed it next to her.
Although it was just a small thing, the details were the most touching. After drinking the sweet and slightly cool watermelon juice, Yu Li couldn't help but hug him and kiss him.
Yu Li gave the first batch of watermelons to Lu Guanshan and took him to the army to distribute to the soldiers in his unit. Everyone was very happy and they even held a watermelon eating competition. Yu Li couldn't help laughing just by looking at the photos that Lu Guanshan brought back.
In return, the soldiers would send some gifts to Captain Lu's home from time to time. Lu Guanshan would definitely not accept the expensive gifts, so everyone just gave each other some local specialties.
The bacon, mushroom sauce, chili sauce, and other local delicacies that can be delivered are all the best.
Yu Li treasures each one and savors them carefully.
She and Lu Guanshan took advantage of the weekend in late June to deliver the remaining first-cut melons to 뎀.
When you cut open the big, round watermelon, the bright red flesh will make you drool.
Yu Li greeted everyone with a smile: "Stop working for now! Come on, come on, everyone, have a taste of the watermelons from our own fields! Customers who come to buy things, come and have a taste, our watermelons are free!"
Soon, everyone gathered around, each taking a piece of melon and eating it with great praise!
"This melon is delicious, and Boss Yu is even more generous! No wonder he is the most popular supermarket in the whole city!"
"Oh, this watermelon is really good. Can you give me some more? I want to buy some to eat at home!"
Yu Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, we will have more ripe watermelons in the future and will send them to the supermarket for sale. As long as everyone likes them, we will definitely work hard to provide them to everyone!"
The whole scene was extremely joyful. Su Qing came up with a frown on her face. "You... can you still come out? You are wearing loose clothes and you are thin. If I hadn't known your figure before, I wouldn't have known that your belly was so big!
It's not easy to have twins! You'll be born after taking the college entrance exam next month, right? Are you uncomfortable sitting for a long time now? Oh, the more I talk, the more worried I get. Everything else is secondary. Your health is the most important. You don't worry about anything during this period of time. You treat me like a donkey or a horse. I'm really worried!"
Women who have experienced pregnancy and childbirth find it the hardest to understand how difficult it is!
Yu Li did find it increasingly inconvenient to walk, but she still smiled and supported Su Qing's arms: "It's okay, I'll try not to do any heavy work. I'm here to deliver watermelons today, so can I clean up the house while I'm there?
My mom and her family will be here next month. When the whole family arrives, my mom and my nephews and nieces can sleep at my house, but my eldest brother, second brother and my dad won’t be able to sleep there. I need to pack things here in advance so that it will be convenient for them to stay there.”
Hearing that Yu Li's family was coming, Su Qing was also happy for her: "Don't worry, I have packed everything after you told me last time. Now I will take you to see it."
The two hadn't seen each other for a while, so they went to see the house and talked while walking.
Lu Guanshan did not bother them.
The house is not far away, only eight minutes' walk away.
Yu Li reserved the first floor for her family to live in. She was surprised as soon as she walked in. The windows were bright and clean, and there were new curtains. The room was even equipped with hot water bottles and other things, so that it could be occupied at any time!
The bed sheets and quilt covers in the bedroom were all neatly arranged, and there were even clothes hanging on the hangers.
"Yu Li, I thought they would be more comfortable in pajamas after coming from such a long distance. In this hot weather, I picked out a few sets of pajamas and washed and dried them. You really don't have to worry about anything."
Yu Li was so moved that her eyes became hot: "Su Qing..."
Before she could say anything, Su Qing covered her mouth with her hand and said, "With our relationship, there's no need to be polite, right? You treat me as a good sister and are good to me, so shouldn't I be good to you?
In my heart, I have long regarded you as my half-sister!"
Yu Li was deeply moved and said quickly, "Yes, yes, yes, I won't be polite with you! I'll come to you if I have any problems in the future!"
The first floor was well tidied and there was nothing to note, so the two went to the second floor to check out the goods stored in the warehouse besides the staff dormitory, and discuss the recent supermarket sales and the sales of goods.
Who would have thought that when I walked up the stairs, a fashionable girl in a pink floral dress humming a tune came down from the stairs.
She was wearing sunglasses and tried to squeeze in between Yu Li and Su Qing without even looking!
After the shoulder bumped, Yu Li almost couldn't stand due to her big belly. Fortunately, Su Qing supported her!
"What are you doing? Why are you pushing while walking up the stairs? Don't you know to walk on the right? My sister is pregnant. If something happens to her, you will be in trouble!" Su Qing couldn't help but shouted angrily.
Ye Anqi looked carefully and recognized Yu Li in front of her.
When she went to take the driving test that day, she was kicked out of the car as soon as she got in, but this pregnant woman actually passed the test!
I just kicked a stone and bumped into her, but her man pointed at my nose and scolded me!
Later, Gao Liang also accused her of doing that, but what did she do?
Ye Anqi was furious: "Yo, yo, yo, I can walk wherever I want! You stay at home because you're afraid of being bumped into. What's so great about being a pregnant woman? It's not my child! What the hell! You idiot, stubborn, and a jerk!"
Yu Li had been to the seaside, especially the beach, and had heard people swearing in dialect. She immediately realized that this woman was swearing in poor seaside dialect again!
Last time, she tolerated it because of Gao Liang's apology, but this time...
Yu Li raised her head and slapped Ye Anqi hard!
"If you can't talk, just shut up. If your mouth itches, just pat it with your shoe sole. Do you think you are a shit bucket? Put whatever dirt you have in it!"
Ye Anqi was hit so hard that she staggered, her sunglasses were crooked, and she immediately rushed over to beat him!
"You dare to hit me! Pregnant woman, I will beat you to make you miscarry today!"
Yu Li was standing on a high place, and she was standing on a low place. Seeing her coming towards her, Yu Li grabbed Su Qing's wrist, raised her foot and kicked Ye Anqi down directly!
