"An'an is really amazing."
Rice sold outside usually costs around 2 to 7 yuan.
The fact that An'an can sell rice at such a high price and still attract so many people can only mean one thing.
The rice she grows tastes really good.
Even she found it incredibly fragrant and delicious after eating it.
So at this price, it's not a bad deal.
After the meal, everyone patted their bellies and started burping.
"Qinqin, the watermelons at home are so sweet, they were grown by An'an. Let your dad cut one down and you can try it."
"No way, I just ate a full meal, how could I possibly eat watermelon?"
"It won't be fresh if you leave it until tomorrow."
"Let's kill them tomorrow."
"What's there to be afraid of? If we can't finish it, we can give it away."
"Everyone loves our melons."
"Go quickly and get the watermelon."
After Lin's mother finished speaking, Lin's father immediately got up and went to the cellar they had built to get watermelons.
He picked out the smallest watermelon and carried it up.
Even so, the melon looked to weigh about ten pounds.
Lin's mother and Lin Anshu had already taken the opportunity to tidy up the table.
The bowls and chopsticks were all placed in the sink.
After carrying the watermelon out of the water, Mr. Lin washed it in the sink.
Then I put it on the table, ready to cut it with a knife.
"Wait, Dad, let me knock on it and see."
After Lin Anshu finished speaking, she curled her fingers and tapped them on the watermelon rind.
The next second, the dark green watermelon suddenly cracked open with an irregular slit.
"Dad, this melon is quite ripe, let's kill it."
"..." Mr. Lin.
You've already mashed the melon like this, how are you going to cut it?
Cutting this cracked melon really tests his skills.
However, it's true that the watermelon rind is very thin.
In the end, Mr. Lin still managed to cut the watermelon.
As for how it looks after being cut up, well, as long as it's edible, that's fine.
"Qinqin, have a taste."
"I'll bring a few pieces over to Grandma and Grandma on my mother's side first."
My maternal grandmother and paternal grandmother ate a rather light dinner, so I didn't sit at the same table with them.
Lin Anqin handed a few slices of the cut watermelon to the two elderly people before picking up a piece and starting to eat it.
And I must say, this watermelon is really sweet.
It's fresh, delicious, and incredibly thirst-quenching.
The food I just ate was a bit too strong in flavor.
Now, having a cool, sweet watermelon to eat is truly refreshing.
The family ate only half of it.
As for the other half, Lin's mother wrapped it in plastic wrap and handed it to Lin Anshu.
"An'an, take this half watermelon to Xu Yi's house."
"Okay." Lin Anshu nodded happily.
Xu Yi and his parents have been a great help to the family.
Xu Yi's family helped her countless times with picking vegetables, watermelons, and fruits.
In return, Lin Anshu and the others often sent things to Xu Yi's family.
Sometimes it's vegetables dug up from the ground, and sometimes it's fruit grown at home.
Sometimes, Mr. and Mrs. Lin would give Xu Yi some of the snacks they had at home.
Because the relationship was good, there weren't many formalities between the two families when they interacted.
Sending half a watermelon over wouldn't seem out of place.
A few days ago, Xu Yi's family stewed beef and asked Xu Yi to bring them a large bowl of it.
That day, Lin Anshu's family happened to be making mutton soup.
They served Xu Yi another large bowl of mutton soup.
When Lin Anshu delivered the watermelon, she was immediately warmly received by Xu Yi's parents.
"An'an's here? Have you eaten yet? Come on, it's time to eat, sit down and have some with us."
"No, Auntie, we just finished eating, and I'm really full right now."
"An'an, why did you bring watermelons again? You should keep those watermelons at home and sell them for money."
Although it was only half a watermelon, Xu Yi's parents were still very happy.
The watermelons from Lin Anshu's family are ridiculously expensive.
Of course, it's also incredibly delicious.
If this were in their family, with such a profitable business, they wouldn't dare to eat it.
Of course, the best option is to sell them all for money.
But Lin Anshu's family is not.
No matter how rare or valuable the things they grow are.
They would prioritize feeding their own families before selling the food for profit.
Whether it's watermelons, or vegetables and fruits from her family, they've sent a lot to her home.
This deeply moved Xu Yi's parents.
They estimated that the things Lin Anshu sent to their home were worth about a thousand yuan.
Not to mention, Lin Anshu often brings her son Xu Yi along to play.
"Auntie, what are you saying?"
"We planted so much on our own land and worked so hard. We should sell what we can and keep what we can eat."
"Otherwise, we'd be at a huge loss."
"My original intention in farming was to ensure that my family eats and drinks well and that I don't suffer from hunger," Lin Anshu said.
She actually disagreed with Xu Yi's mother's point of view.
It was like a story she had read before.
A primary school student has a loquat tree in his home.
Every year when the loquats ripen, the family picks them and selects the biggest and best ones to sell for money.
As for family members and children, they can only eat the smallest pieces or the ones that are injured.
The child grew up without ever knowing what the big loquat in his family's garden tasted like.
Lin Anshu said she didn't quite understand this.
