The night breeze was blowing, and in addition to the bright moon, there were countless stars emerging in the sky.
When they heard Li Shusheng said he would take them to see the big watermelon, Xu Qian, Liu Jie and others became excited, and even Lao Ma felt curious.
"Follow me, the big watermelon grows in the Baicao Garden, which is the big house not far away." Li Shu led everyone towards the Baicao Garden.
Lao Ma looked at the tall house not far away and exclaimed: "This house is so tall! It's almost as high as three floors, right?"
"About that. The Baicao Garden is 10 meters high and 30 meters long and wide. Some vegetables and fruits are planted in it." Li Shu turned around and smiled, then opened the door of the Baicao Garden.
Phew~
A gust of cool air rushed out instantly, and everyone entered the Herb Garden. What they saw was a scene of lush greenery and abundant fruits.
Red tomatoes, green cucumbers, yellow melons, red strawberries, purple and black eggplants, dark red peppers... and flowers of various colors, this is really a refreshing vegetable garden.
"Huh~ The air here is so good.".
“So many vegetables, fruits!?”.
"Hey, what is this? Why are the roots still sticking out of the ground?" Eva asked curiously in Malay. She is learning Chinese as fast as possible, but her progress is slow and she can only use Malay now.
"That's a radish, with big radish and cherry blossoms on top." Li Shu said with a smile in Malay.
Xu Qian and others did not understand Malay and looked confused. Li Shu explained in Chinese again, and they suddenly understood.
Xu Qian walked to the radish field, touched the exposed part of a big radish, and said with a smile: "It's really hard. Is this... a big radish?"
Li Shu: “-_-||”.
"No, it's just an ordinary green radish." Li Shu walked over and pulled out a big green radish. The radish was 30 centimeters long, the upper part was green, and the lower part buried in the soil was white, and the whole thing looked like a cone.
Click~
Li Shu broke the radish directly from the middle, put a little bit of moist soil on his palm, and let Boss Jing hold the smaller half. He held the half of the radish with cherry blossoms in his left hand, and took out a knife from his pocket with his right hand. Peel the radish.
Swish, swish, swish~
Move skillfully and be careful not to stain the radish meat with any soil.
Swish, swish, swish~
The peeled radish was cut into 1 cm thick slices, and those who were interested in the radish were asked to take one piece each.
"Try it and see. The recognition of a vegetable should not be limited to the appearance, but also the touch, smell, taste, etc." Li Shu said with a smile.
Xu Qian first took a piece of green radish and said with a smile: "I haven't seen a green radish growing in the ground for many years. The last time I remember seeing a green radish was when I was at my grandma's house seven or eight years ago. I like to plant a vegetable garden, so I grow radishes and eat fried vegetarian meatballs. ".
Old Ma also took a piece of radish and said with a smile: "My mother really likes to plant vegetables. She has inconvenient legs and feet, but she can't be idle."
Eva took a piece of radish, stretched out her pink tongue and licked it, her face instantly wrinkled in pain, and she said in Malay: "It's so spicy~".
"Haha~ That's what radish is." Li Shu stuffed a piece of radish into his mouth and chewed it. A moist, crisp and slightly spicy taste filled his mouth.
In addition to Li Shu who ate the radish, Lao Ma also ate the radish, and the others vomited the radish after tasting it.
Xu Qian felt her mouth was burning. She watched Li Shu put away the knife and suddenly said: "Senior, why do you still carry a knife with you? It's really too small for self-defense."
"Ahem, it's not for self-defense." Li Shu said with a smile.
"What does that do?" Xu Qian instantly became curious.
Liu Jie, Wu Ke and others also looked at Li Shu.
"The big yellow dog likes to eat vegetables. Every time he comes to Baicao Garden, he will clamor to eat cucumbers or tomatoes. With a knife, you can cut the vegetables into pieces and feed them to him." Li Shu said with a smile.
The air became quiet for a moment.
"Uh." Xu Qian's face was full of black lines, and then she said helplessly: "The knife used to cut vegetables for dogs is now cutting radishes for us to eat? And why did you swallow the radish, senior?"
"What's wrong, you discriminate against dogs?" Li Shu said with a smile.
"Hahaha~" Liu Jie and others all laughed in an instant, and the short little girl giggled non-stop, her voice as clear as a silver bell.
"Let's go, the watermelon patch is over there. Let's go see the big watermelon." Li Shu led a few people to the watermelon field. From a distance, they could see a huge watermelon lying on the edge of the field.
The lights hang down from the top of 10 meters high, illuminating the big black watermelon in a bright black color.
"By the way, everyone, be careful of black mosquitoes. Last time I came to the watermelon field, I encountered a big black mosquito and got a big bite! Don't make the same mistake again!" Xu Qian thought of the mosquito last time and reminded her.
“There are no mosquitoes on me.”.
"It turns out there are mosquitoes in this vegetable garden.".
Everyone even looked at themselves and were relieved to find that there were no mosquitoes. In fact, Boss Jing had been following everyone. He had been wary of the appearance of black mosquitoes, but today the black mosquitoes did not appear.
Then everyone's attention was focused on the big watermelon, and they were all amazed:
"This watermelon is too big!".
"You are about to grow into a watermelon ancestor, no, a watermelon essence."
"Such a big watermelon weighs 100 kilograms, right? Even the dozen of us might not be able to eat it."
Listening to everyone's discussion, Li Shu squatted beside the watermelon field and gently touched the black watermelon rind: "It shouldn't be 100 kilograms. It was weighed at 85.6 kilograms before. It's already ripe, pick it."
"Okay, boss." Boss Jing was about to walk over, but was stopped by the little girl.
She stared at several 5 cm tall plants next to the watermelon field and said, "Hey, Brother Jing, don't step on these plants. What are these plants? They don't look like ordinary weeds."
Boss Jing touched the back of his head, he didn't know either.
Li Shu touched his chin and said slowly: "Looking at the leaves, they should be a few grape seedlings, but how come grape seedlings grow in the watermelon field?"
Xu Qian, who had a ponytail, felt something in her heart and said uncertainly: "That day when I came to Baicao Garden to look at the watermelons, I seemed to have eaten a bunch of grapes with you, my senior, and threw the grape seeds into the watermelon field." .
"Oh, yes, it should have grown from the grape seeds at that time." Li Shu said with a smile: "There is no shortage of grapes in the Baicao Garden. Just pull out these few seedlings that are like weeds."
Boss Jing bent down to pull it out, but the little girl anxiously stopped him: "Don't, don't, don't pull it out. When you grow up, won't you be able to grow bunches of grapes?"
"It's true... If you want it, just find a flower pot and plant it in a flower pot, don't grow it in a watermelon field."
"Okay!" The little girl immediately ran to find the flower pot.
When the little girl came back, the huge watermelon had been picked and placed on the 1-meter-wide stone road. There was still a little watermelon juice flowing out from the broken stem.
"How to plant the little grapevines in the flower pot?" The little girl squatted next to several grapevines growing together, frowning and asked. The big orange cat also came to the Baicao Garden and rubbed the little girl with its furry body. The girl's calves.
