Cheng Yue had no interest in the Feng family's affairs, and she also believed Shanshui's words that if Feng Chunming and Xu Yingying got together, neither of them would have an easy time.
After the birthday party, she became busy again.
The first is the tavern business, the second is the furniture factory business, and the third is the opening of the fruit wine.
These three things kept her so busy that she forgot about another very important source of income, the melon farm.
On the tenth day of the sixth lunar month, Cheng Shun took the four servants of Shanshui's family for a walk in the melon field, and finally picked a few of the largest melons to take home.
Only after Cheng Yue and Cheng Wen finished their work and returned home in the evening did Cheng Shun pick up the kitchen knife and cut the watermelon.
The skin is thin and the flesh is red, and it tastes sweet when you take a bite.
"Wow! They're so delicious! Grandpa, can I pick two from the melon patch and bring them home for dinner?"
Mingzhu couldn't help asking after taking a bite.
"Can't!"
Cheng Shun patted Mingzhu on the head.
"This is sold for silver. If you want to eat it, you can eat it at my house. You are not allowed to take it home and eat it alone! Humph!"
Cheng Shun said again.
Mingzhu pursed her lips and muttered something.
"Grandpa, that naughty girl Mingzhu said that if you don't let her pick it herself, you won't be able to see it anyway!"
Cheng Jinxing said immediately.
"Cheng Jinxing, you're going to die!"
Mingzhu was so angry that she wanted to beat Cheng Jinxing.
Cheng Jinxing chuckled and slipped away.
"Humph! I'm not afraid of you stealing them! I've already made an agreement with Old Man Li and the others. No matter who it is, except for me, Fatty, and Shanshui, anyone who tries to pick them will be beaten or I'll let the dogs bite them! Shanshui has five dogs!"
Cheng Shun looked at Mingzhu proudly.
"Dad, besides you and Shanshui? What about me? Will I get beaten and bitten by dogs if I go to pick them?"
Cheng Wu quit and asked aggrievedly.
"Don't listen to your father's nonsense! If you want to eat it, why pick it yourself? Mom will pick it for you! I don't believe it. The dog of the Shanshui family will bite me. Old man Li and the others will not say anything to me."
Jiang patted Cheng Wu on the shoulder and consoled him.
Xue Hanyu and Ning Wazi sat in a row on small stools, happily eating melons and watching their family members playing. Their movements were somewhat similar, except that Ning Wazi's melon was very small, while Xue Hanyu's was very big.
…
The next morning, Cheng Yue followed Cheng Shun to Shanshui's house. Xue Hanyu said that she had never seen a melon field, so she went with them. When they arrived at Shanshui's house, they called Shanshui over and went to the melon field together.
Cheng Yue walked around and pulled out a few big baskets, asking Dashuan and Xiaoshuan to carry them back, and then sent them to the Xie family, the Huang family, Ji Mingxuan, the Jiang family in Dalinzi Village, and the Tao family in Fucheng.
"Oh, why pick so many at once? I heard that each one sells for one or two taels of silver!"
Cheng Shun looked at his generous daughter and felt extremely distressed.
"Dad, let's just give it to them once. If they like it, they can just pay for it!"
Cheng Yue smiled helplessly.
"Then you have to pay for it! You can't give it away for free next time. Oh, by the way, have Master Ji send a car to Feifei, and then send another car to my father-in-law in Jiangnan!"
Cheng Shun felt better when he heard that he had to buy it with money next time, and then he gave another instruction.
There were only four of them, so there was no need to worry about anyone hearing anything.
"Dad, let the second brother arrange this himself! Well, the ones for General Ji and the second sister-in-law, we will pick the ones from the second brother's land."
Cheng Yue smiled.
"Yeah, yeah, that's fine! This brat should have given it to me. Let's give it to my father-in-law. Our family will pay for half of it. I've never given a gift to my father-in-law before!"
Cheng Shun nodded repeatedly.
