Chapter 485
Zhou Guangming suddenly clapped his hands and said, "Ah! I have it. My mother taught me to draw. I drew myself and sent it to my grandfather. I learned to draw again." The more I said, the happier I became, "This method is good."
"I don't know how to do this!" Hua Banzhi looked at him and said in embarrassment. "I used to draw what I saw with branches on the ground, and I don't know how to teach others."
"What should I do?" Zhou Guangming's little face suddenly collapsed again.
Hua Banzhi couldn't bear to look at his dim gaze, "By the way, let your uncle teach you."
"Can you uncle?" Zhou Guangming asked after thinking about it.
"It should be! Didn't he draw a house?" Hua Banzhi looked at him and said, "You'll ask when he comes back."
"Yeah!" Hua Banzhi put down the letter in her hand and said, "I'll clean up the kitchen and start the fire tonight, we will cook our own meals."
"Mom, I'll go and help you." Zhou Guangming put down the letter in his hand and ran towards her.

After a little loss, Lin Xiyan bought a pound of lychees and came back, which was enough for them to eat.
"I bought lychees and came out to eat lychees." Lin Xiyan walked in with the lychees and placed them on the Eight Immortals table.
"Here you come!" Zhou Guangming ran out of the house and sat obediently at the Eight Immortals table, "How do you eat this lychee when your uncle?" He saw him for the first time, and his eyes were full of curiosity.
Lin Xiyan looked up at him and said, "Where is your mother?"
"Where are cleaning up the kitchen?" Zhou Guangming looked at the kitchen.
"I'll call your mother over." Lin Xiyan said as he got up and went to the kitchen and saw Hua Banzhi put the pots and pans into the cupboards and storage cabinets one by one.
"I won't eat lychees, you and Guangming eat them!" Hua Banzhi raised her eyes and said as she looked in.
"If you don't eat lychees, sit down and drink a glass of water and take a rest." Lin Xiyan said to her, watching her put the things in her hand into the cabinet, and simply pull her away.
Hua Banzhi was helplessly dragged away by him and pressed him to the Eight Immortals table.
Lin Xiyan looked at her and said, "Sit up obediently, I'll pour you a glass of water." He said that, and then he raised his foot and left.
Hua Banzhi looked at Zhou Guangming and said, "Put the letter away, don't get dirty." As he said that, he folded the letter and placed it in a corner of the Eight Immortals table.
"Oh!" Zhou Guangming nodded, folded the letter and stuffed it into the envelope.
When Lin Xiyan came out again, she had an extra cup of water in her hand, "Drink water." She sat next to her.
"Auntie, uncle. How do you eat these lychees?" Zhou Guangming looked at him with big watery eyes and said, "It looks bumpy and rough."
"I'll peel it for you to eat." Lin Xiyan pinched a lychee from the branch and said, "The bright red shell outside cannot be eaten. Peel the white and tender inside, and you can pinch the flesh that can produce water and eat it." As he said that, he peeled it and handed it to Zhou Guangming.
Zhou Guangming took it and couldn't wait to put it in his mouth, throwing the shell on his hand into the garbage box.
Lin Xiyan looked at him and exhorted, "Be careful of the core inside."
Zhou Guangming stood up and scooped the trash box, spitting the nucleus in.
"How does it feel? Is it delicious?" Lin Xiyan asked looking at him.
"It's okay! It's just too small and it's not enough to eat watermelon." Zhou Guangming licked his lower lips and said.
"Hehe..." Hua Banzhi laughed when she heard this.
"Mom, why are you laughing at? I'm telling the truth. Look, the core is so big." Zhou Guangming pointed to the garbage box and said.
Lin Xiyan smiled embarrassedly and said, "What I eat is the taste, watermelon tastes like watermelon, and this lychee tastes like lychee." As he said that, he handed the peeled lychee to Zhou Guangming again.
"My uncle is right." Zhou Guangming swallowed the lychee in one bite.
"For Guangming, as long as he can eat, he doesn't care about anything else." Hua Banzhi said with a smile.
"What about you? Look at how delicious he eats, don't try it." Lin Xiyan looked at Hua Banzhi with bright eyes and said hopefully.
"I'll just drink water." Hua Banzhi picked up the water cup and raised it to him.
"Why are you not even curious? You have denied it before. Try to see if it tastes delicious?" Lin Xiyan said to her with confusion in her eyes.
Yes! The flower half-branch picked a lychee and peeled it and put it in her mouth. "It has a strange smell, but I really have no blessing to absorb it." Spit out the nucleus, "Don't force me."
"Okay!" Lin Xiyan said helplessly, "This is a good thing. Although Lingnan produces a lot of lychees, it is not so easy for ordinary people to eat lychees. Unless there are many lychees at home, even if they plant them themselves, they will pick them and sell them for money."
"Just like we can't eat a meal of white flour all year round when we grow grain." Hua Banzhi said casually.
Lin Xiyan handed the peeled lychees to Zhou Guangming, "Give it."
"Uncle, I peeled it myself, you can eat it too." Zhou Guangming shook his head slightly and said.
"Is your little hand OK? The shell is a little hard for you." Lin Xiyan said to the chubby little hand.
"I'll peel it for him." Hua Banzhi said.
"No, your hands are not allowed to do this." Lin Xiyan said decisively at him, and then said, "Actually, I can't peel a few more. You can't eat too much lychees, as eating too much will make you feel angry."
"Okay then!" Zhou Guangming said with a smile, "Thank you."
"Why are you polite to me?" Lin Xiyan said with a smile while peeling the lychees.
"You like to eat lychees!" Hua Banzhi suddenly asked as she looked at him.
"Yes!" Lin Xiyan looked at them and smiled.
"Then it should be easy for you to eat lychees!" Hua Banzhi said casually, holding the teacup and taking a sip.
"No! When I was a child, I was in poor health and could not eat too much lychees, so it just satisfies my cravings." Lin Xiyan handed the peeled lychees in his hand to Zhou Guangming and continued slowly, "Instead of eating lychees, I actually prefer the feeling of picking lychees under the tree, and I ran outside. I ran to the lychees tree and picked up some ripe or insects that fell from the tree."
"But it's too hot outside. When I was a child, I was ignorant, so I hoped that the typhoon would come quickly, which would be much cooler. But the fruit farmers didn't want the typhoon to come at all. When the typhoon came, it broke the branches, and the lychees fell naturally. The harvest was gone in an instant." Lin Xiyan sighed, "How can the children know the hard work of adults, and they only care about their own fun."
"It's the same. The young master and the lady like to snow. In that way, you can enjoy the snow in the fire, eat wine, drink tea, play snowball fights, and build snowmen. For us, snow means colder. Winter is the hardest to bear." Hua Banzhi said smoothly.
"I don't understand the sufferings of the people, I just care about my own enjoyment." Lin Xiyan said quietly with dark eyes looking at her.
