It is mid-October now, another holiday, and Taoyuan Township has a bumper harvest of watermelons.
At Qian Chunhua's invitation, the Crown Prince, Princess Huihui, Imperial Tutor Yan, Lu Qing and Zhou You, as well as all the people in the Dong family and her best friends in the capital, went to Taoyuan Township together.
When you visit Taipei, you can taste watermelon right away.
Except for Lu Qing and her family who had eaten the watermelon, everyone else was curious about the watermelon she mentioned. Even Master Yan gave the two children a day off so that they could pick watermelons with everyone.
In the village of Zhuangzi in Taoyuan Township, the sun shines on the watermelon field, creating an lush green scene.
Because Qian Chunhua pollinated all the watermelons, this batch of watermelons are growing well.
The watermelons on the ground are like big green fat men, lying quietly between the vines.
Xu Jiang and the servants he invited were happily busy in the watermelon field. They carefully picked the ripe watermelons, their faces filled with joy of the harvest.
Qian Chunhua brought the largest one. The ripe watermelon gave off an enticing aroma. She picked up the kitchen knife and cut the watermelon without hesitation.
The bright red flesh is exposed, and the juice flows down the cut, making people salivate.
After cutting a small piece, the prince took the lead in picking up a piece of bright red and juicy watermelon and took a light bite.
Suddenly, the sweet juice burst in his mouth, and a cool feeling instantly spread throughout his body. The watermelon has a delicate and smooth taste, and the flesh is full, and every bite is full of satisfaction.
As you chew, the sweetness of the watermelon becomes more and more intense, making you intoxicated. The juicy taste is like finding a clear spring in the desert, making you feel extremely comfortable and happy.
The prince ate the watermelon in big mouthfuls, letting the juice drip down his chin.
After eating one piece, the prince was still not satisfied and picked up another piece.
After the prince started, everyone else also started to work. There were so many people that Qian Chunhua had to cut twenty watermelons to meet everyone's needs.
"Now this is watermelon, it's delicious." Zhou You ate more than ten pieces, almost half a watermelon, and finally he held his stomach full and exclaimed with satisfaction.
Mrs. Zhou looked at him with amusement. When she saw something delicious, her former foodie son came back again.
"It would be nice if we could eat watermelon in summer." Dong Shanshan felt a little regretful after eating the watermelon. If he could come out two months earlier, he would definitely be able to make a lot of money.
Qian Chunhua smiled and said, "We should sow seeds early and try to harvest in June or July."
Dong Xianshan's eyes widened. "Is it really possible?"
"Of course." Qian Chunhua nodded with a smile. It was too late to plant today. If they planted earlier, they would definitely be able to harvest in summer.
In the hot summer, eating a bite of cool watermelon is really refreshing, especially in Yipinxiang Restaurant. When you are tired of eating antique soup, taking a bite of watermelon will definitely be very refreshing.
Qian Chunhua gave three big watermelons to each of the friends invited today. It's not that she is stingy, but there are not many kinds of watermelons today. After giving them away, she only has about fifty watermelons left.
Of the fifty watermelons, apart from giving three to each of the landlord Sun, the Xu Jiang family, the Zhao family, and village chief Jiang, she planned to take the rest back home.
After her family members finished eating the watermelon seeds, they were used to make seeds. She then planned to stop growing wheat and use all the land to grow watermelons.
After the Crown Prince and the Grand Tutor finished eating the watermelon, they curiously wandered around the manor. However, as they were all in casual clothes, Xu Jiang and others did not know their true identities.
They just thought they were all guests of Ruiyun County Lady. Since they were guests, the Xu family received them very seriously.
Looking at the neatly arranged greenhouses, the prince curiously asked Xu Tao who was accompanying him, "Is this a greenhouse? Are you going to grow vegetables in it?"
