The Orphan's Counterattack in the 1970s

Chapter 55 Giving Watermelon

"Xiaolin, you are really too polite. I heard from Xiaobao two days ago that the watermelon you grow is delicious, and I want to exchange it for you!" Su Meihua glanced at the big watermelon in Chen Xiaolin's backpack. I think Chen Xiaolin is so sincere and the two watermelons she gave are quite big!

"It's okay. It doesn't cost anything to grow it myself, so I'll give it to you to try." It's not that Chen Xiaolin is being generous, it's not that she wants to please the village leaders so that she won't be embarrassed when she wants to open a letter of introduction in the future.

"Then Third Aunt, I will accept it. This watermelon is really rare and I want to try it too. Third Aunt also has a jar of salted duck eggs at home. You can take it back and help Third Aunt taste whether it is delicious or not." Su Meihua replied. She brought a small jar out of her room, which contained salted duck eggs that she had just pickled.

"Thank you, third aunt." Chen Xiaolin saw that Su Meihua was not willing to ask for her watermelon in vain, so she accepted the salted duck eggs.

"Xiao Lin, the salted duck eggs made by my mother are delicious. You can usually eat them with porridge. They taste really good." Seeing how generous her mother was, Chen Xiaomei was even willing to give away her newly made salted duck eggs. People, usually my mother won't let her eat anything she wants.

"I have long heard that the salted duck eggs made by my third aunt are very delicious. This time I finally have a chance to try them." Chen Xiaolin quite likes eating salted duck eggs, but she is not very good at making salted duck eggs. She failed to make them last time. A jar of it was already used by her to feed the pigs.

"If you like it, I'll give you some when I make it next time." Su Meihua was very happy to hear that Chen Xiaolin really liked the salted duck eggs she made.

"No, no, I can bring the duck eggs over and let you make them for me, okay?" Originally, Chen Xiaolin wanted to learn how to make salted duck eggs from Su Meihua, but she was afraid that it would be someone else's unique secret recipe. I can only bring some duck eggs over and let her help process them. Anyway, there are more than a dozen baskets of duck eggs in her space. I will give her a few as labor costs.

Okay, when you exchange duck eggs with someone else, just bring them over. Your third aunt, I will help you pickle the duck eggs." Su Cuihua was even happier when she heard that Chen Xiaolin didn't want her own duck eggs. After all, a jar of salted duck eggs would at least There were about twenty of them, and she was really reluctant to give them away for free. Of course, the jar of salted duck eggs given to Chen Xiaolin today is a return gift for giving Chen Xiaolin watermelon.

"Third Aunt, where is Xiaobao? I brought a gift to him today." Chen Xiaolin took out a handful of marbles she had specially prepared from her pocket.

"Xiaobao went up the mountain with his sisters. Your little aunt is so kind to her. She even bought him marbles. Why don't you wait for him here? He should be back soon." Su Meihua saw Chen Xiaolin is even happier with the marbles in her hand. Xiaolin is so generous. Xiaobao must let Xiaobao play with her more in the future.

"I still have things to do, so I won't wait for him. Give these marbles to him when he comes back!" Chen Xiaolin put the marbles in her hand on the table.

"Then I will thank you on Xiaobao's behalf." Su Meihua became more and more satisfied with Chen Xiaolin the more she looked at her. It was a pity that her parents did not have a nephew of the right age, otherwise she would have been shameless and helped Chen Xiaolin act as a matchmaker.

Chen Xiaolin said goodbye to Su Meihua, Chen Xiaomei and the others and left. As for Li Ran, she didn't say a word to him. Although he couldn't be blamed for not choosing Shen Jiaojiao to be with Chen Xiaomei instead, Chen Xiaolin still didn't want to give him a good face.

After Chen Xiaolin left, Su Meihua was also talking to Chen Xiaomei about her.

"Xiaomei, look at how good little Lin is at being a good person, but look at you, you still act like a child, making noises all day long."

"Mom, Xiaolin has no parents, she is forced to grow up, and I still have you and my dad to support me, so I can just be a child." Chen Xiaomei is actually a little envious of Chen Xiaolin, even though she has no parents, But she has a house, a car (a bicycle) and savings.

"You are already a person who talks about things, but you are still shameless and want to rely on your parents all day long." Su Meihua looked at her slim daughter, she really couldn't bear to marry Chen Xiaomei. If Li Ran is not allowed to build a small house next to his home, then we can meet him every day. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was a good idea. She might discuss it with her old man at night.

"Mom, even if I get married, I will always be your daughter."

"You and Li Ran go out to play! I also want to pickle sauerkraut!"

Only then did Chen Xiaomei remember that Li Ran was still around. Just now she was only looking at the watermelons and had forgotten her belongings.

"Li Ran, let's go! Let's go for a walk."

"Xiaomei, I plan to build a new house next to your house. What do you think?" Li Ran has been thinking about this issue just now. He really likes Chen Xiaomei, so for the sake of his and Chen Xiaomei's future, he plans to build a new house after spring. Just start building a house.

"Are you really willing to build a house next to my house? Are you afraid that others will say you are a door-to-door son-in-law?"

If others want to say it, just say it! I just don't care."

"Then I'll go back and talk to my dad tonight."

............

When Chen Xiaolin returned home, she put down her backpack and went out with another watermelon. She planned to give this watermelon to Shen Jiaojiao and Liu Zhaodi.

She passed by Uncle Chen's house and happened to see Goudan playing in the yard, and then there was another little tail behind her butt.

When Chen Xiaolin came over, Liu Hua happened to be teaching Liu Zhaodi and Shen Jiaojiao how to make pickled vegetables in the yard.

"Sister-in-law, you are here too!"

"Xiaolin, why are you here?" Liu Hua heard the voice and turned around to see Chen Xiaolin holding a watermelon, followed by a dog egg.

"Hey, Xiaolin, why are you holding a watermelon here?" Liu Zhaodi was very happy to see the watermelon in Chen Xiaolin's arms. The watermelon she exchanged with Chen Xiaolin last time was eaten by her and Shen Jiaojiao in one meal. It's over.

"It's not like I picked all the watermelons just to give you one to eat." Chen Xiaolin put the watermelons in their water buckets and went over to watch them make sauerkraut.

"Xiaolin, the watermelon you grew is really delicious. I originally planned to exchange it with you for another one to eat in two days." Shen Jiaojiao planned to take half a catty of beef jerky back to Chen Xiaolin to eat later

"If you like to eat, you can go over to my place later and bring one back. I have several more!" Chen Xiaolin has been a little tired of eating watermelon recently.

"Okay, I'll go over and hug you later. Just don't be reluctant." Shen Jiaojiao really wanted to get another one to eat. If it weren't for the watermelon being difficult to mail, she would have wanted to mail one back to her mother.

When Liu Hua heard that Shen Jiaojiao wanted to exchange for watermelon, she actually also thought about it. She also wanted to exchange one for her mother to try.

Chen Xiaolin saw them making pickled vegetables, so she took Goudan home
