The walking koi started from winning the first prize in the lottery

The weather in late August was extremely hot, and the cicadas in the trees kept chirping, which was very annoying.

Wu Shuangshuang suddenly didn't know what to do and felt very bored. At this time, her boyfriend Yang Xihe suddenly came back from Hangzhou and gave Wu Shuangshuang a surprise.

The two of us hadn't seen each other for a long time, and when I saw my boyfriend again, he seemed particularly handsome.

It was too hot during the day, so Yang Xihe took Wu Shuangshuang to the cinema to watch a movie.

It has been a long time since the two of them had such a quiet time in their own world.

In the evening, we went to Haidilao to have a hotpot. After eating and drinking, the two of us returned to the riverside of the community for a walk. There were quite a lot of people walking at night.

There were gusts of cool breeze, and many people were chatting and laughing with their dogs and children near the community.

As she walked, Wu Shuangshuang saw an old man riding an electric tricycle and selling watermelons: "Local watermelons, local watermelons. If they are not sweet, I won't charge you."

Wu Shuangshuang was a little tempted when she saw the old man, but she didn't plan to buy a watermelon. After all, they were taking a walk together, and the watermelon looked quite big. If she bought it, she wouldn't be able to walk with a big watermelon weighing seven or eight kilograms in her hands.

After all, I don’t want to end my walk and go home now!

But for some reason, when looking at this old grandfather, Wu Shuangshuang suddenly remembered her own grandfather who had passed away many years ago.

My grandfather is a dark, thin old man.

My impression is that he has always been sickly since he was a child.

My grandfather is a country man, but he is not hardworking and never likes to grow crops.

What does grandpa like? Grandpa likes to grow fruits.

At that time, the old house in my hometown was surrounded by fruit trees planted by my grandfather, including orange trees, apple trees, pear trees, date trees, persimmon trees, tangerine trees, and cherry trees.

At that time, my grandfather often stood beside the orange trees and pointed, "These orange trees are for my second son's daughter, Shuangshuang, and those orange trees are for my little girl."

And the cherry tree...

Wu Shuangshuang remembers that the local cherry trees were particularly tall when she was a child. If you wanted to pick cherries, you had to climb up the tree. It was not like the cherry picking gardens today, where you can pick cherries by just standing on tiptoe.

The cherries at that time were sour and sweet. Every year during the holidays, Wu Shuangshuang would go back to her grandparents' house to help look after the cherry orchard.

A plastic bag is tied to a long bamboo pole, and when birds fly over, they are driven away.

My thoughts were wandering far away, and when I came to my senses, Wu Shuangshuang was already standing in front of the electric tricycle.

"Grandpa, how much is this watermelon?"

"Oh, my girl, you want to buy watermelon? Don't worry, my watermelon is free even if it's not sweet. It's 2.8 yuan per pound. If you don't like it, I'll refund it on the spot."

Wu Shuangshuang smiled and said, "Okay, I only want to buy half a watermelon. Can you pick a smaller one for me? If it's too big, it will be a waste if I can't finish it tonight."

"Okay, no problem, girl!"

As he said that, the old man patted several watermelons on the cart and finally chose one that was of medium size.

Then he cut the watermelon to reveal the fresh flesh inside, and at the same time, he used a small knife to cut a thin slice of the watermelon and handed it to Wu Shuangshuang.

"Girl, try it!"

Wu Shuangshuang took it flattered, "Ah! Is this for me?"

It tasted really sweet when I put it in my mouth! Wu Shuangshuang's eyes lit up.

“It’s delicious!”

“It’s really delicious grandpa!”

"Then I'll pack it for you!"

Finally, I weighed it and it came to twenty-two dollars and eight cents for eight pounds.

"Girl, I have a request. Can you please not scan the code to pay? Do you have cash? If you have cash, just give me twenty-two yuan. No! No no! Twenty yuan will be enough."

Wu Shuangshuang was surprised. "Grandpa, don't you have a payment code here? Why do you only accept cash?"

"Oh, I'm a little embarrassed to say this. This QR payment code belongs to my son. But recently he hasn't transferred the money to me after receiving it. But I have to take my wife to the hospital for a check-up in a few days, and I'm worried that the money I have is not enough! So..." The old man didn't say anything else, and Wu Shuangshuang understood.

"Doesn't your son usually give you living expenses?"

"Normally, I don't give him much. He has a big family to support! My two grandchildren are in elementary school and the expenses are huge. I can still grow watermelons and sell them to make some money, but I'm short of money recently. If you really don't have cash, just scan the code to pay. It won't be a problem."

At this time, Wu Shuangshuang suddenly remembered that there was a hundred yuan in cash in her mobile phone case.

So he happily took out the hundred yuan from the back of the phone case and said, "Grandpa, can you make the change for a hundred yuan?"

"Oh! I've got the change! I have enough change with me!" Grandpa happily took the hundred yuan, then raised the money above his head with his squinting eyes, looked at the front and back of the money under the light, and after confirming that it was a real coin, he put it in his small bag and handed Wu Shuangshuang eighty yuan.

Wu Shuangshuang felt sad seeing her grandfather like this. She wondered if her grandfather was still alive, would her father and the others be willing to let him go out to work?

Suddenly, I had an idea. During this period of hot weather, they haven't given employees any benefits yet! Besides, the barbecue restaurant and cat cafe use watermelons to make drinks and fruit plates. Why not buy some from this grandfather? After all, his watermelons are really sweet.

"Grandpa, can you deliver the watermelons to my door? If I order a lot, can you deliver them to my store? My store is right next to the community!"

"Oh, my daughter, how many watermelons do you want to buy? Of course we can deliver them to your door. When do you want them? I have a large field of watermelons!" Grandpa was very happy when he heard that.

Wu Shuangshuang took out her cell phone and said, "Grandpa, leave me your number. I'll call you tomorrow morning!"

"Oh, I'm too old to remember cell phone numbers. So, girl, tell me your number and I'll call you. You can save it and see how it goes!"

Wu Shuangshuang nodded, and the old man took out an old cell phone from his tattered bag and carefully pressed the number Wu Shuangshuang reported. Two seconds later, Wu Shuangshuang's cell phone rang.

"Can you send me 50 watermelons tomorrow morning? Around what time can you deliver them?" Wu Shuangshuang counted the number of employees in the store. In fact, there were not many employees, so three large watermelons would be enough for each person. The rest could be placed in the store's warehouse.

"Yes, yes, I will get up early tomorrow morning to pick watermelons and bring them to you at nine o'clock, don't worry!"

Wu Shuangshuang left the old man the address of the store to make sure he wouldn't make the wrong choice and then left.

I asked a few more questions before leaving and found out that the old man's house was not very close to here. It would take at least an hour to get there by riding an electric tricycle. It sounded particularly sad.

It’s not appropriate to give him money directly. He has children and daughters. We can only help him within our ability!

The old man saw that Wu Shuangshuang bought a lot, so he wanted to give her two yuan per pound. How much can she earn with this?

In the end, Wu Shuangshuang insisted on setting the price at two yuan and a half per kilogram.

You said, "Just consider it as I took advantage of you for three cents."

It made grandpa's eyes red.
