When she got to university, she found that there were three other girls in her dorm who were in similar situations, and the new girl might even have a better family background than her.
With a family background like that, wouldn't it be better for her to go abroad? Why did she choose to come to a newly established medical university?
She was thinking to herself, but on the surface she was welcoming her new roommate and even asked if she needed any help.
Unfortunately, the girl was quite independent. After thanking her for her kindness, she quickly made up the bed herself and then rested by the bedside.
Liu Shile had a good impression of Wushi City in Hubei Province. When she went to Yicheng a couple of years ago, she even made a side trip to Wushi City.
Although the area looked rather desolate due to the heavy rain, it was still a well-connected region with both waterways and land routes, making it quite prosperous.
And so, all of their roommates had arrived.
Xu Qinghuan smiled and said, "Lele, now that all your roommates are here, hurry up and bring out the watermelon to share with everyone."
Liu Shile had mentioned the watermelon to Xu Qinghuan before, saying that she would treat everyone to watermelon once all her roommates arrived.
Liu Shile knew that Xu Qinghuan was helping her, so she smiled and said, "Yes, that's exactly what I was planning to do. Sister Huan, could you come and help me?"
This watermelon is very ripe and won't keep for long, so it's best to eat it as soon as possible.
Upon hearing this, Xu Manni glanced at Xu Qinghuan and Liu Shile. She didn't understand why Xu Qinghuan, whose family background seemed quite good, was so protective of Liu Shile.
At noon, her mother said she would buy melons for everyone to eat to quench their thirst, but Xu Qinghuan didn't say anything to help. Now she's helping Liu Shile.
Listen to what she's saying; isn't she clearly telling herself this?
To be honest, she was just overthinking things. Liu Shile had planned it all out long ago, so she really didn't mean to target her.
It's all because Xu's mother was too eager to show off, so she was a bit too hasty.
With Xu Qinghuan and Liu Shile's encouragement, apart from Xu Manni's displeasure, Wang Jing and Li Han were both quite curious.
It's quite interesting that Liu Shile, who has a sweet appearance but is dressed very plainly, actually brought a watermelon.
It wasn't that they looked down on Liu Shile, but rather that Liu Shile had previously mentioned that she came from a rural town, and the fact that someone like her actually owned a watermelon was quite eye-catching.
They had originally planned to decline, but changed their minds when they smelled the sweet aroma of watermelon.
Everyone here, including Luo Linlin, has eaten watermelon before, but they are certain that none of the watermelons they have eaten can compare to the one in front of them.
When Liu Shile cut open the watermelon, sliced it into pieces, and invited everyone to eat it together, they all accepted her kindness, including Xu Manni.
As the sweet juice entered her throat, Xu Manni began to understand why Liu Shile was unwilling to sell the watermelon.
It's really delicious.
"My goodness, Shile, where did you buy this watermelon? It's so sweet and juicy!" Wang Jing, who was also quite lively, asked Liu Shile while eating the watermelon.
Before Liu Shile could speak, Xu Qinghuan answered for her, "These were grown by Shishi's grandmother, Wang. They taste really good and can't be bought outside."
As she ate the watermelon, she carefully collected the seeds. These were the seeds she had gathered; whether she could enjoy delicious watermelons next year depended on them.
"Oh, I see. Grandma Wang from Shile is really amazing. My grandma's family also grows watermelons, but the taste is not as good as this one. Why is that?"
Wang Jing had never farmed before, so she didn't quite understand why the food her grandmother and Grandma Wang grew tasted different. Although the other one was also delicious, it just didn't taste quite the same.
Xu Qinghuan wasn't quite sure either; she'd never farmed before, so how would she know these things?
Luo Linlin whispered, "It probably has to do with the soil, sunlight, and variety. The ones from where I live don't taste as good as these."
So the girls in the dormitory all looked at Luo Linlin, who felt flustered by their stares and shifted her body uncomfortably.
Liu Shile laughed and said, "Luo Linlin is right. This watermelon variety is a bit different from those on the market. In addition, it is carefully cultivated, which is why it tastes this way."
If you're really interested in this, you can ask the students at the agricultural university next door; they'll probably know more about it.
In this day and age, there aren't many varieties of fruits and vegetables; it's always the same ones, but they're also quite rare because of the difficulty in transportation.
Even a slightly wilted apple is still fruit. If a family gets an apple like that, the whole family will be reluctant to eat it.
Finally, it will be cut into thin slices, one slice per person, and before you can even taste the flavor, it's gone.
"Oh, I see. Linlin is really amazing, knowing so much." Seeing that Luo Linlin was a little uncomfortable, Wang Jing praised her.
Then, looking at Xu Qinghuan who was collecting seeds, he asked, "Qinghuan, what are you doing?"
Xu Qinghuan winked playfully and laughed, "Jingjing found out! Shishi told me that these seeds can grow into watermelons, so I collected them to plant next year and see if she was lying to me."
Uh, all the girls in the room, except for Luo Linlin and Liu Shile, were stunned by her words. Could it be like that?
So the girls didn't throw away the watermelon seeds, but collected them like Xu Qinghuan did, preparing to plant them later.
Even Li Han, who has a somewhat aloof demeanor, and Xu Manni, who doesn't like Liu Shile, are no exception.
When Xu Manni ate this watermelon, she knew that if it could be grown on a large scale, the prospects would be very good.
However, since private operation is not allowed now, she is thinking about how to maximize the profit from this watermelon.
She turned around and found that Xu Qinghuan was even more direct than her, and had even told her about it.
She felt that Xu Qinghuan had the same idea as her, which was to find a way to grow it in large quantities and then sell it to make money.
So she didn't have time to think too much at the moment, and instead carefully put the watermelon seeds away first.
After sharing the delicious watermelon, the atmosphere in the dormitory became less awkward.
Wang Jing also took out some snacks that her parents had prepared for her to share with everyone. Since she had eaten Xu Manni's food at noon, she had to reciprocate.
Even Luo Linlin reluctantly took out the hazelnuts and pine nuts she had brought to share with everyone.
She didn't actually bring many of these things; it was her grandfather who felt that their family had produced a college graduate, so he specially asked the family to prepare them for her.
However, having eaten quite a bit of food from her roommates, she didn't want to be stingy.
After all, Liu Shile, who was in the same situation as her, shared the particularly delicious watermelon she brought with everyone.
The girls ate a watermelon weighing over ten kilograms without even realizing it.
Liu Shile showed no sign of feeling sorry for him at all.
To be honest, Luo Linlin was a little jealous of Liu Shile. They both came from the countryside, so why could Liu Shile be so unrestrained?
