The poor man grows watermelon

The next day, the family of three went to Dr. Zhang's house to treat their legs as usual.

Su Ye fulfilled his previous promise and let Xue Wa sit in a wheelchair by herself.

When the little guy tried his best to steer the wheelchair and moved a little bit in the room, the eyes of the two doctors, one old and one young, stared straight.

Zou Xing was the first to lose his composure and asked curiously, "What is this? Did Brother Su make it himself?"

"It's called a wheelchair, and it was made by Yu Feng."

Yu Feng hurriedly said, "I did it according to what the little page said."

Zou Xing looked at Mr. Zhang, wanted to say something, but hesitated.

Mr. Zhang understood what his apprentice was thinking, coughed lightly, and had to open the mouth for him, "Xiaoye, can you sell the drawing of this wheelchair to Xiaoxing?"

"No, no, no," Zou Xing waved his hands again and again, "You don't need to give me the pattern, if brother Yu is free, just make a new one, bigger enough for adults."

Without waiting for others to ask, he took the initiative to explain, "I have a patient who is noble in character and willing to give, but has been incapacitated for many years. It is really regrettable."

Su Ye smiled and said cheerfully, "I'll draw the pattern later and ask Yu Feng to send it to Dr. Zou."

Zou Xing was taken aback, and was about to refuse, but Su Ye said, "This drawing is just a piece of waste paper to me. Why don't you give it to Dr. Zou? I think it can help more people."

Zou Xing didn't delve into the meaning of "waste paper". What Su Ye said was very tempting. The Zou family has practiced medicine for generations, and encountered many similar cases. Make it great.

He clenched his fists and said cheekily: "In that case, I will buy the pattern and ask Brother Su to make a price."

Su Ye raised his eyebrows, and said unhurriedly: "Xue Wa has been here for more than four months to treat her legs. Mr. Zhang and Dr. Zou won't take any money. At this moment, I just took out something that is of no use to me. Dr. Zou actually mentioned money?"

Zou Xing looked confused.

In the end, it was Zhang Lao who said: "Boy Yu's family is not short of these two pieces of money, and you will be able to treat Xiaoxuewa more wholeheartedly in the future."

Zou Xing was silent for a while, then bowed deeply to Su Ye and Yu Feng, "Zou is here to thank you two Gaoyi, and all the medicinal materials used by Xuewa in the future will come from Zou!"

Su Ye smiled and did not refuse.

Xuewa's legs still haven't improved much, but the little guy's mood is getting better day by day.

Ever since she got a wheelchair, Yu Douzi would call Xuewa every day when she went out to herd geese.

Su Ye didn't bother him either, and only told him not to approach the river, not to run too far, etc.

At first he followed quietly for two days, and seeing that the children were very obedient, he was completely relieved.

Boys from other villages often come here to herd cows and geese. When they see Xuewa's cute appearance, they laugh at him for not being able to walk. In fact, they want to attract Xuewa's attention.

The little guys in Yujia Village quit. There were obviously many "contradictions" internally, but at this time they were unanimous to the outside world, rolling up their sleeves and fighting with the little guys from other villages.

The first time this happened, Xuewa was so frightened that she burst into tears and didn't dare to go out for several days.

After seeing a lot, I was able to sit calmly in the wheelchair and shouted at the top of my voice, "Come on, Yujiacun! Come on, Brother Douzi! ↖(^w^)↗"

As for the meaning of "come on", it was naturally taught by Su Ye.

Most of the time, Xuewa would not be pushed, so that her little hands became red every day.

Su Ya'er was distressed, so she sewed a pair of small gloves for him with soft hare fur, which were both warm and wear-resistant. The little guy liked it so much that he was more than happy to run around by himself for a while.

After breakfast every day, while Su Ye was cleaning up the kitchen, the little guy would go to the yard to "inspect" the yard.

"Good roll!"

"What—"

"Baa baa!"

"Mea-baa-"

The little guy likes the sheep to bleat the most, and every time he has to stop in front of the sheep pen for a while, and then go around to the cow pen.

"Big flower!"

"Moo-"

"Hello little flower!"

"Moo-moo-"

"Hi Xiao Huang!"

"..."

"Hi Xiao Huang!"

If the little bull ignored him, Xuewa would keep talking persistently until Xiaohuang gave a weak "moo".

Then came the big dark horse.

"Hei, Heiyun is good..."

"law--"

Heiyun is the most humane animal in the family, but it is too tall, Xuewa has always been a little scared, and every time after saying hello to it, it will quickly run to the experimental field.

Generally, they walked along the field ridge for a circle, and then went back to the house to report to Su Ye which ones bloomed and which ones lost their leaves.

Under Su Ye's patient teaching, the little guy has been able to identify many plants.

However, things seem to be a little different today.

Xue Wa only glanced at the melon field, then hurried back to the house.

"Daddy! Daddy!" The little guy's voice was a little anxious.

Su Ye quickly stopped what she was doing, and squatted in front of the little guy, "What's wrong, baby?"

The little guy raised his arms and pointed towards the field, "Guagua..."

"What's wrong with Guagua?" Su Ye's heart skipped a beat, "Did you grow Guagua?"

"Yeah!" The little guy nodded heavily, "Long Guagua!"

Su Ye picked up the little guy and ran towards the melon field.

No wonder he was so excited, you know, for this piece of melon, he and Yu Feng got up early every day and worked hard for more than half a month.

At the end of March, flowers began to bloom in the melon field one after another. Su Ye was quite happy at first, so he took note of the location of the flowers and waited for the melons to fruit.

Unexpectedly, the seemingly healthy flowers fell within a few days, and the flower branches gradually shrank, without even a melon hair.

Su Ye was so puzzled that she deliberately got up early in the morning and squatted in front of the flower buds to observe the situation.

At this glance, he discovered the problem.

Both watermelons and pumpkins are monoecious plants with different flowers. Even with insect pollination, the fruit setting rate is not high, let alone this season.

So, Su Ye got up early every day, picked the strong male flowers, and rubbed them against the female flowers, um, a little wretched.

Yu Feng couldn't bear to see him work so hard, so he did the housework early and stayed with him.

In this way, the two of them worked hard for half a month before completing the first batch of pollination.

Fortunately, Su Ye became less nervous after gaining enough experience. When new buds bloomed, he could calmly deal with it while teaching his son.

He marked the vines with the first female flowers to pollinate, and it was these that produced the round melons.

For this reason, Su Ye made a special meal of braised pork, and called Aunt Su Hua and the others to celebrate.

Except for the watermelon and pumpkin, the rest of the plants are doing well.

The cabbage was getting a little old, and Su Ye would occasionally pick off a few young leaves to make a bowl of noodle soup for Xue Wa, while the rest of the people could only watch.

Once, Su Qingzhu pulled up several trees on purpose and secretly, Su Ye saw it at a glance, and didn't criticize him at that time, turned around and stewed two pig's trotters without giving him a bite.

Since then, no one dared to touch Su Ye's experimental field again.

The bamboo basket with the "Lily" sign was moved from the kitchen to the yard—this was the only plant that Su Ye hadn't transplanted into the ground.

"Lily" still has no leaves, and lavender flowers bloom on the green calyx. The petals are long and narrow, and the stamens are hairy, which is indeed somewhat similar to the lily of later generations.

Su Ye couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the original species of lilies looked like this?

Xiaoxuewa liked it very much, and would carry a small pot to water it herself every day.

The days passed like this day by day, and the crops in the field grew seedlings and quickly grew taller.

The winter wheat in Yufeng's field has grown tassels, and it will be harvested in about twenty days.

It rained heavily that day in Xiaoman, the river suddenly rose, and the crops in the field were full of water.

The adults specially reminded the children not to go to the river to play again. In fact, this happens every year. Although the children feel itchy, they are very obedient.

Fortunately, many ditches were dug in Su Ye's field this year, and the big white goose and the little ones had a new place to play.

One day, someone who was the first to find loach and shrimp in the ditch caused the children in the village to explode.

The adults were weeding and sharpening the fields, so they jumped into the ditch and dug out a basket of loach and dried shrimp, and asked their mother or grandma to fry them with soybean oil when they went home.

The women couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion when they took a few mouthfuls of scorched and tender loach - forward, who has the time to catch these wild animals, and who is willing to use oil to fry them?

Who brought all this before them? Although they don't talk about it, they know it well.

Anyway, every time Xuewa went out, there would be a group of guards to protect her. Even if Yu Feng was busy and didn't have time to catch fish and shrimps, the wild animals on the dining table were never broken.

The first watermelon in the experimental field grew at this time.

Su Ye had noticed several days ago that Xiaoxuewa was more active than him. She read it every morning and evening, and tried to report the situation to Su Ye with a few words.

When the two uncles came, the little guy would take them to introduce (show off) and introduce (show off), which made everyone look forward to it.

Su Ye didn't pick the watermelon he had high hopes for until the fruit of the melon started to wilt.

Because it is an original species and no bulking agent is used, the watermelon is not big, about the size of a football.

They have heard Xuewa say that watermelon is not a vegetable but a fruit, just like apples and pears.

Like Xuewa, everyone has never seen apples or pears, and they don't even know what "fruit" is. Anyway, they are very powerful.

At this time, everyone was gathering around the short table, looking at Su Ye... the knife in his hand with full expectation.

Su Ye couldn't help laughing, "What's the matter?"

It has to be said that he was also a little nervous - this was the first watermelon he had grown with his own hands, which meant a lot.

"Stop talking, cut it!" Su Qingzhu urged anxiously.

Su Ye no longer hesitated, put the blade on the watermelon, supported it with his hand, and cut it hard.

The overripe watermelon made a "bang" sound and collapsed in half, exposing the green and red flesh inside.

"(**) Wow~" Everyone exclaimed in unison.

"Hmm..." Su Ye was a little surprised.

How do you look like this?
