Except for Cheng Yue and Xue Hanyu, the other members of the Cheng family just smiled.
In their view, it was the blessing of their ancestors because they had a piece of land that would bear fruit in a few days.
Xue Hanyu had no idea about the magic of the Cheng family's land. She had lived a life of luxury since she was a child and had no idea when to plant crops, how to plant them, or how long it would take for them to sprout.
No one in the Cheng family told her specifically.
Cheng Yue knew it best. Without the water in my palm, the results wouldn't have come out so quickly, and it might even have been impossible for so many to survive at once.
…
Cheng Wu, Shanshui, and Cheng Jinxing waited until midnight and the boat sailed before returning home.
In three days at the latest, the Cheng family’s watermelons will be sold in various prefectures of Da Qi.
The reputation of the Cheng family in Xinghua Village, Taoyuan County will also be revealed to the people of Daqi for the first time.
After this watermelon incident, for a long time to come, the Cheng family of Xinghua Village will become famous in various places in Da Qi. This is a story for later, so we will not discuss it for now.
On June 14th, seven days after Boss He had gone out to sell watermelons, Mrs. He came to his house with a boy about the same age as Cheng Jinxing and a girl about the same age as Dahua.
They came by boat, and together came Boss Ye, who had previously bought all the breakfast for the Cheng family.
"Eh? Boss Ye, are you planning to go out or go back?"
Cheng Yue and Cheng Wen had just arrived in the morning when they saw Boss Ye waiting at the door, along with a beautiful middle-aged woman, children and servants. She thought they were Boss Ye's wife and children.
"Boss Cheng, this is my sister. She is the wife of He Dafeng, the man who bought your watermelon. These two little ones are their children, my nephews! Jun'er, Jiao'er, come and call me auntie."
Boss Ye introduced Cheng Yue with a smile.
"Aunt Cheng!"
"Meet Aunt Cheng! Aunt Cheng, you're so beautiful!"
He Jun and his sister He Jiao stepped forward to salute Cheng Yue.
"Hey! Young master, young lady, please don't do this."
Cheng Yue likes sweet-talking children. He Jiao looks chubby and cute, and she likes her very much.
After bringing the people inside, Cheng Yue asked Cheng Wen and Dahua to go about their business while she greeted people outside.
After asking, I learned that Boss Ye was planning to pick up his daughters to accompany the old lady. His wife and children were not in their hometown. His son would take the imperial examination next spring and study in Tuzhou, and his wife would take care of him there, so he went to pick up his two daughters to accompany his mother first.
She didn't bring them together before because her two daughters happened to be visiting their grandparents, and the old lady was anxious to go back to her hometown, so she sent them in two batches.
I also stopped by Cheng Yue to buy a few baskets of watermelons and took them to Tuzhou to give to my friends.
Mrs. He's purpose for coming here was much simpler, which was to wait for the watermelons to ripen and then arrange for their delivery.
The Ye family is her maternal family. She has borrowed the Ye family's cargo ship, so she can transport the goods over there without waiting for the He family's ship to return.
"Mrs. He, you came at the perfect time. A batch of melons have ripened recently. Although the quantity is not as large as before, it can still be shipped on a ship. When is convenient for you, I will ask my fiancé to take you to the melon field to have a look."
Cheng Yue thought that Mrs. He came at the right time. They had just discussed it last night and sent someone to deliver the letter to the provincial capital in two days.
"Anytime is fine. It just so happens that Jun'er and Jiao'er said they wanted to see the melon field, so we can go together."
Mrs. He said.
"Okay, my fiancé will be here soon, and I'll ask him to take you there. But since Mrs. He is here, why not try our set menu?"
