"Kuuuuuuu, Lin Chunyu, express delivery!" On an ordinary afternoon, in a city in the southeastern region, the courier rang one of the offices in a certain office building.

"Here we come." Soon, a woman with a big belly came out of the room. Looking at her round belly, it must have been at least seven or eight months old, and her whole body seemed a little swollen, and her face was disfigured.

"Sign here." The courier handed the package to her, and then handed over the form for her to sign for.

"Okay, thank you." Seeing that the package of the express package was complete, Lin Chunyu took the form and signed her name, and then returned the express form to the courier as a thank you.

"You're welcome." The courier smiled, turned around and left. He receives and delivers hundreds of packages every day, and meeting polite customers is always happier than those who are not.

Lin Chunyu carried the express mail into the house and closed the door. Their company is a suite like this, plus a boss and an accountant. Lin Chunyu is the accountant. Her boss rarely comes to the company, and she is basically the only one in the office.

I opened the carton and took out some waste paper. Inside was a large package of dried pumpkins and several packages of melon seeds. Lin Chunyu bought five catties of dried pumpkins and three catties of melon seeds this time.Her husband's parents are from the countryside, and the rations that the family eats are all shipped from the countryside, so the beans from Luo Meng's family and the agricultural and sideline products from Dawan Village are not very attractive to her.

Lin Chunyu first took out a piece of dried pumpkin and took a bite. Well, it seemed a bit too dry. It took a lot of effort to bite off a piece. The taste was quite different from those packaged, but this is acceptable. Is it easy to store when dried? , and this way the weight is also sufficient.

While she was thinking about it, she chewed it in her mouth. The more she chewed, the more fragrant she felt. It was a kind of light and strong pumpkin fragrance, not too sweet, but very natural, unlike some dried pumpkins and sweet potatoes. A mouthful of saccharine flavor.

After eating one piece, Lin Chunyu didn't even think of taking a chair to sit down and eat slowly. She just stood there, all her thoughts were on the pile of food on the table.

After eating several slices of dried pumpkin, she finally turned her attention to the packets of sunflower seeds beside her. She grabbed a few sunflower seeds and ate one. She chewed the small melon seeds a few times and swallowed them. Yes, there is a faint fragrance of nuts left in her mouth, and the frying is good, the taste is suitable, and the taste is not the same as the one she has eaten before, and one more...

After a while, Lin Chunyu finally sat down on the sofa, chewing a piece of dried pumpkin and eating a few melon seeds. She ate very slowly, because it was all about enjoyment!

When the clock reached 05:30, Lin Chunyu sighed, picked up the box, took the empty lunch box and went home. Their home was very close to the company, and it took less than 10 minutes to walk, and two stops by bus.

Lin Chunyu used to ride to and from get off work by herself, but since she was pregnant, as her belly got bigger and bigger, she stopped riding a bike. The bus is too crowded, so she usually walks, sometimes if she is too lazy to walk , just take a taxi back.

"Are you shopping online again?" His husband came back early today and was already cooking with an apron on. Hearing her return, he came out of the kitchen.

"Yeah." Lin Chunyu changed her shoes and went into the house.

"Give this to me first." Her husband said and went to get the cardboard box in her hand.

"..." Lin Chunyu looked at her husband, holding the cardboard box and refused to let go.

"what happened?"

"..." Lin Chunyu lowered her head and did not let go.

"what happened?"

"Let's not test it this time..." Lin Chunyu said guiltily.

"Hey, didn't we agree to stick to it together?"

"But...but this time it's really delicious!" Lin Chunyu wrinkled her round face, tears streaming down her face.

As soon as she cried, her husband immediately became flustered: "Don't cry, don't cry, it's okay, let's stop the test, okay?"

"Ugh... I'll be very hungry when I'm at work, suck."

"I know, I'll prepare some more food for you tomorrow."

"Woo...I'm still hungry..."

"Then let's eat whatever we want in the future."

"Wuuuuuuu... But you can't even eat it, suck it!"

"I can eat it, why can't I eat it, if people can eat it, we can eat it."

"Woo... this time this is really delicious..."

"..."

"..."

Lin Chunyu cried for more than an hour. Speaking of it, she was the one who caused the trouble herself. Ever since she knew she was pregnant, she had been very careful. Thinking of her husband working in the laboratory, she asked him if the food could mess with them. The laboratory went to the laboratory to test and check whether those things exceeded the standard.

Her husband didn't do food-related work originally, but he also studied chemistry. He has a good background, and after a while of tinkering, he figured it out. After the previous food tests were done, this man's face turned pale. up.

Then Lin Chunyu was miserable. All the snacks she loved in the past waved goodbye to her. At the beginning, Lin Chunyu gritted her teeth and endured it, thinking that for the sake of the child in her stomach, she must persist for these few months. down.

But in the past few months, as her stomach got bigger day by day, her food intake also increased sharply. Every morning when she went out after eating, her husband would prepare two meals for him. Her stomach was not very hungry, but she was hungry Ah, wanting to eat this all at once, wanting to eat that at another time, she can't stop being greedy, but after her husband's test of many things, she dared not eat them anymore, so she just kept going.

She endured it for several months, until this day, when her husband was about to take away the food again, the mother-to-be finally couldn't bear it anymore and burst into tears.

"It's okay, it's okay, we won't test it in the future, we should eat whatever we want, people eat like this, the baby is still alive and kicking." Lin Chunyu's husband said this, not knowing it was to comfort her wife I still comfort myself that if I don’t know some things, I don’t know them, and knowing them will scare people to death for life.

"Pfft!!!" Lin Chunyu took out a few tissues, blew her nose vigorously, and said, "Test it, I have confidence in them." She had to trust her tongue, she ate so much this afternoon, with a little additive The taste didn't come out.

"Do you really want to test it?" I cried like that just now, how wronged it is, why not test it?

"Let's try it." Lin Chunyu said at last, and then she stopped looking at the food and went straight into the kitchen. Although she has more confidence in these dried pumpkins and melon seeds, she is about to lose confidence in the current society. Well, she wouldn't be surprised if there were any problems with these things.

Woo... But they are really delicious!

At Niuwangzhuang, Luo Meng still peeled pumpkins and dried them every day. He had no idea how many tears were shed by their pumpkins thousands of miles away in the southeast.

The big pumpkin picked from the mountain, the pumpkin meat is made into dried pumpkin, the pumpkin seeds are taken out and dried, and then used to fry the seeds, and the flesh of the pumpkin seeds is used to feed the chickens, and the pumpkin skin was originally intended to be used to feed the cows , But recently, the buffaloes on Niuwangzhuang have relatively high-grade food, and they look down on these dry and hard pumpkin skins.

Romon asked everyone to collect the pumpkin skins and dry them in the sun. In winter, whether they are used directly to feed buffaloes or powdered to feed chickens, they are all good feed. waste.

At around eight o'clock this morning, Luo Meng had just come down the mountain with a cart of pumpkins when he saw Hou Jun, the fat cook, walking up the mountain with a bamboo basket on his back and a fire tong.

"What are you doing here?" Romon asked him as soon as he stopped the car.

"I heard that the chestnuts on the mountain are almost ripe." Hou Jun is already familiar with the area of ​​Niuwangzhuang. This guy likes to find something to eat when he has nothing to do. If you have something, you can ask Hou Jun to talk about it, and if you make it up, you can eat it on the same day.

After Luo Meng transported the pumpkins down the mountain, he also took the tongs and bamboo baskets, and two straw hats, and went to the chestnut field.Chestnut trees grow fast, and usually bear fruit in two or three years. Luo Meng bought four-year-old seedlings and planted them in the spring. After growing for more than half a year, they are now taller than a person.

Luo Meng drove past the hills. When they saw Dongnanxixi and Yaya, they ran with the car, and Erlang ran behind with a few calves. "Don't step on the crops." Romon turned around and shouted, and there was a burst of clear barks from southeast and northwest, and the trail behind ran even more vigorously.

When they arrived at the chestnut field, the fat man was picking chestnuts with the tongs. The guy raised his head and used the tongs to hold the thorny chestnut balls. After twisting them hard, he picked them off and threw them into the bamboo basket beside him.

"Fatty, straw hat." The sun was still very high in August, and Luo Meng took two straw hats from the back of the car, threw one to Hou Jun, and put the other on himself.

"Oh, why are you here too?"

"Let me take a look at these chestnuts." A while ago, when they were fruiting, Luo Meng and Luo Quangui came to trim the diseased branches together, and they didn't come to the chestnut field again for a long time.

"I smashed one just now, it tastes crispy and sweet, let's pick some more and go back."

"No, I'm still waiting for them to sell for money."

As Romon said, he also picked up a chestnut from the tree, threw it on the ground, picked up a stone from the side, and smashed it with the pointed end, and the chestnut skin was broken by him. Ripe, the fruit shape is not yet full, and the chestnut shell is not the bright brown after ripening, but light khaki.

Luo Meng picked up a chestnut, put it in his mouth and took a bite, peeled off the chestnut meat and ate it, it was as crisp and sweet as the fat man said.

"Woo!" Yaya yelled, sticking out her tongue and licking her mouth again, the meaning was obvious, it wanted to eat too.

Romon looked at them again. These brothers were sitting upright beside them, obviously waiting for him to feed them.

"This thing has a lot of sugar, so eat less." Having said that, Romon still picked another chestnut ball from the branch, cracked open one and gave them a chestnut fruit.

Yaya got her own chestnut, without thinking about it, she ate it into her mouth in one bite, grinned her mouth and bit it for a long time, spit out the skin and flesh, picked up the meat and ate it, and looked at the chestnut shell. There is still some meat, and I eat it in my mouth and continue to bite.

Things were different in the southeast and northwest, these few chestnuts around him were either sniffing or pawing, and then the other three looked at their boss one after another.

The boss circled around his chestnut with a serious expression, rolled it on the ground with his paws, and then took a bite in his mouth, spat it out and looked at it, and bit it into two halves I picked up half of it and ate it into my mouth. After three or two strokes, I spit out the chestnut shell. Chew the chestnut meat and swallow it.

"Wow!" Seeing that the boss had successfully destroyed half a chestnut, the three puppies wagged their tails happily and went to deal with their own chestnut.

"Moo!!!" Erlang waited for a long time, but before Romon gave him his share, he dragged his neck and let out a long cry.

Luo Meng looked at Erlang, and then at the calves behind him, so he had to smash a few more chestnut balls, it is not possible to engage in differential treatment.

When Erlang and the calves got chestnuts, they chewed them directly in their mouths, chewing the chestnuts with their shells and meat until they were eaten. After eating the chestnut meat, the chestnut shells were chewed into a small unidentified mass and spit out. Too old, I'm afraid I won't be able to digest it after eating it.

"Woo!" Yaya licked her lips and asked Romon to give another one.Sitting more upright in the southeast and northwest, the eight chubby eyeballs were staring at Romon neatly, and Erlang and several other calves were also standing there waiting.There are many calves in Niuwangzhuang, and they are all taken by Erlang. They do whatever Erlang does. Although they are seen running wild on the hills all day long, it is rare for them to step on crops or eat vegetable seedlings. matter.

"No more." Romon ruthlessly rejected their voiced or silent appeals.

"Wow!" The boss lowered his body and wagged his tail sadly. Can you give me another one?

"No more, let's play." Just taste the taste, do you still want to have a good time?These big and small dogs have recently eaten a lot of dried pumpkins and watermelons. The sugar intake is a bit too high. Chestnuts also contain high sugar. If they eat like this, they will get diabetes sooner or later.

"Ahhhhhh..." Yaya yelled twice dejectedly, and took the lead to leave. This girl has been in Niuwangzhuang for a few months, and she knows that Luo Meng is very difficult to speak, so she can't do it if she can't, There is no such thing as playing tricks on him.

They looked at Yaya in the southeast and northwest, and then looked at Romon. Seeing that Romon was waving at them, they had no choice but to follow Yaya resignedly. Erlang followed behind slowly with a group of calves.

Woo, this kind of thing called chestnut is really delicious, but there are too few of them. Imagine that one day, if Romon is suddenly generous, he picks a basket of chestnuts and throws them on the ground, knocks them open one by one, and then looks at them with a smile Said: "Eat, these are all yours." Aw!How wonderful that would be!

The animal legions were walking in the chestnut field, all thinking about the beautiful things about chestnuts. Suddenly, Yaya who was walking in the front stopped, and the southeast, northwest and Erlang also stopped behind.

They looked up and saw a round chestnut ball lying quietly in the middle of the dirt road ahead...
