Chapter 1238: The tragedy of Lao Yan’s family caused by a watermelon
Duan Hongxuan didn't think about watermelon last summer, but he only remembered it this summer. Then everyone was blessed. Everyone could eat sweet and delicious watermelon every now and then throughout the summer. Therefore, everyone in the courtyard was happier than before this summer.
At first, Duan Hongxuan only gave watermelons to the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai a few times. As for the old Wu family, the old Han family and the Silly Zhu family, every time they came over to eat watermelon, Duan Hongxuan would give them a watermelon to take back.
family.
Of course, Yan Jiedi often came to eat watermelon and took it back several times. The old Yan family was very happy. For them, fruit is a luxury product. The family conditions are not good, and there is a stingy person.
Dad, when has the Yan family ever seen fruit? Oh, of course, except for the apples and oranges that Yan Jiedi occasionally brought home in the past, but this has been a lot of trouble in the past year, and it was given to them by Duan Hongxuan, so don’t even think about buying them themselves.
The most I can do is buy some peanuts and melon seeds for the Chinese New Year. That’s it. No one will give me a small amount according to the quantity. Half a pound of melon seeds can be eaten by their family for more than half a month.
The watermelon Yan Jiedi brought home, Yan Bugui originally planned to eat a little for the whole family every day as before, but he could probably eat such a big watermelon for a week even if he was careful with his budget.
Finally, Yan Jiedi remembered Duan Hongxuan's advice: "Dad, Brother Hongxuan said, watermelon contains sugar. The weather is so hot, you have to eat the watermelon as soon as you cut it. It's best not to stay overnight, otherwise it will go bad easily and you will have a stomachache."
Not only do you suffer, you also have to spend money to buy medicine!
Brother Hongxuan said, otherwise don’t cut this watermelon today and cut it on the day you eat it. If you cut it, eat it as soon as possible.
Brother Hongxuan also specifically asked you to tell him, don’t think about eating watermelon quickly like other fruit snacks, because you are afraid that you will get sick and find the disease yourself!"
"Ah! That's not the case yet!" Yan Jiedi looked at her two sons who were eagerly looking at the watermelon, then looked at the small watermelon under the table with pain, and confirmed again: "Jiedi, that watermelon is really cut open.
Just can we stay overnight?”
"Dad!" Duan Hongxuan no longer felt tired for the first time. You are just a kid in junior high school. Why do you have to endure the things that only those young people endure? "Brother Hongxuan's watermelons are cut and eaten on the same day.
, and there is no refrigerator outside Brother Hongxuan’s house. The watermelon and Hongliaoxiang we finished in the afternoon were all placed outside the refrigerator. In the morning, they were all taken out for Huahua and Dadang to eat. I was afraid that you would have a good stomach.
The watermelons for you are all freshly cut."
"Ah! That's like that!" Liao Xiangshu has no knowledge of fruit preservation in her memory. Listening to her boyfriend say that, I know that watermelons can really be kept, which makes me feel sad and distressed secretly.
Liao Xiangshu was the first to feel hungry, but although I didn't feel hungry at all, it was because according to my usual experience, I had finished dinner and was about to go to bed. Even if I was hungry, I had to endure it until breakfast tomorrow.
For the Yan Jiedi family, who had never eaten fruit before, they all felt exhausted after finishing a small watermelon. After a while, they thought about how many bites they would eat.
He asked why we only had half a bowl per person for dinner today. Now it’s broken. They all know how to survive tonight!”
Eighth mother thought about it for a while. When you ate eight pieces of watermelon, you felt your stomach was full. Seeing that the two sons were still holding the watermelon and chewing it, I guess the food will be spoiled later and we will eat a lot less.
, so he nodded: "Okay, let's cut it in half!"
"Oh! How did you know? Go get a glass of water, what if he does?"
If you cook more, after all, after eating such a small watermelon, if you cook so little rice as usual, there will definitely be leftovers. Isn’t this a waste?
Seeing the strange looks in her eyes from her boyfriend and her two sons, Yan Jiedi said: "Well, you will really know in the future that Hongxuan is really mean to Li Xianghong and Qin Huairu's boyfriends. Those two boyfriends are just like raising me alone."
Like my best friend."
The watermelon that I had eaten now was almost completely digested after the children went to the toilet a few times. I only ate half of the usual dinner. It was because I was hungry.
I thought that today was the same as usual, the whole family got out of bed, and everyone was tossing and turning under the bed to sleep, because they were hungry and felt really hungry.
"Hungry, why are you hungry? When you're hungry, your stomach feels so good that you can't even fall asleep even though you're tossing and turning!
Since the old and young who have enjoyed the worst welfare outside the home can separate their families, why does the seventh child, who has never enjoyed the worst benefits outside the home, still stupidly insist on suffering with that family? He can earn his own money and spend it himself.
Is it bad?
Yan Jiedi watched her two sons eat one piece after another, and her heart ached with distress. It was not until the eighth mother had eaten eight pieces of watermelon that she casually said: "You've eaten it. Did you think that the watermelon hasn't been eaten yet?"
Hold your belly and go cook!"
"Dad, is he hungry too?"
"Dad! Who does Hong Liaoxiang treat badly? It's his business. What is he going to do with the watermelon now? Jie Di has got it back, are you thinking about eating it tomorrow?" Liao Xiangshu calmed down after a while, and I grew up.
When I was young, I ate fruit several times.
"Okay, okay, okay, let's kill it and eat it today! Alas!" Yan Jiedi was helpless, so the family happily cut the watermelon and ate it happily.
Then the tragedy happened. After dinner, the children had to do their homework. After finishing their homework, it was still four o'clock, and the whole family felt hungry.
The strange thing is that as soon as the old and the young get married, they immediately start a family separation. After they separate the family, they earn their own wages and spend it themselves. What’s more, at the very least, they are so fussy and hungry!
What's more, by dividing the family, I also added another mouth to eat outside the family, so it seems that I can make some contribution to the family!
"Ah! Yes, how can it be possible? If you eat such a small watermelon, you will only be able to hold on to half a bowl of rice for dinner. How can you be hungry? You are thirsty and get up to drink some water!" Yan Jiedi looked embarrassed.
.
Yan Jiedi also felt that she was not going too far, so she tried to show her respect by saying, "Well, fruit is so expensive. The cost of eating fruit is enough to ruin several meals. How can anyone have such little money to eat fruit!"
After going to bed, we went to the toilet again. Even Yan Jiedi felt hungry. But I also cared about it. With the conditions outside our home, it was possible to fill up every meal. For our family, we were hungry.
It is common to sleep on your stomach.
Well, it was decided that the family would be separated. I should be the eldest child or the eldest child outside the family. Logically, I should shoulder the burden of that family. Moreover, all the money that the whole family had saved for so many years was spent on me. In that case, I would be able to cause trouble.
If you separate the family, you can't even do it yourself.
Yan Jiedi never thought that just because of a watermelon, the seventh child in our family would decide to separate and live alone in the future!
Same goes for Xie Kuang!
As the seventh child, how could I have ever been in that family's glory? From now on, everything outside the family will focus on the youngest. My father favors the youngest in everything. The result is bad. When the youngest takes advantage of everything outside the family, the family
All the money saved by so many young people living frugally and frugally was used up by the old and the young. What advantage did that family have to take advantage of? Then they broke up with that family and went out to enjoy their own slow life.
"Huh?" Yan Jiedi rolled her eyes and ran out of ideas, "Honey, today such a small watermelon was in your stomach. There is no room outside the stomach. If you don't want to make it for dinner?"
"Dad, you are hungry. You are so hungry that you are so nervous that you can't even sleep!
Yan Bugui got up and went to pour some water, only to find with a smirk that his father was also holding a glass of water and gulping it down.
Brother, what's going on? Could it be that watermelon can help digestion?"
No matter how much watermelon fills up your stomach, actually eating it will not make your stomach full of water. Although watermelon relieves heat and quenches thirst, it does not have any diuretic effect. Although it does not fill your stomach just after eating, if you wait for a while and urinate a few times, it will be enough.
.
After tossing under the bed for half an hour, Yan Bugui was so hungry that he got up and asked Yan Jiekuang: "Jiekuang, is he hungry?"
Even if others want to blame the first one, they have to blame the old and the young. After all, it’s your turn!
Liao Xiangshu felt distressed that such a small watermelon was taken care of in one day, so she took it for granted that the whole family would eat less if they ate such a small watermelon, so they halved their dinner.
If so, just make half the usual amount!”
"want!"
The more Liao Xiangshu talked, the angrier she became. Why did she end up with such a father? She was so stingy. There were people like her father all over the alley. When would those days end?
After all, according to the usual amount of food, Lao Yan's family would be too full, not to mention that today's dinner was cut in half because of a watermelon.
Thinking of that, Yan Bugui lost his mind. When he starts working next year, should he also learn from the parents and live alone? At least he can make his own decisions when he is single. If he is hungry like now, he will be responsible for himself.
To make something to eat, I had to carry it on an empty stomach like now.
The eighth mistress rolled her eyes at Yan Jiedi and said, "This is watermelon again, it is a serious meal. Has he ever seen anyone eat watermelons, apples and other fruits as rice?"
