Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they all laughed.
Zhang Yanping said, "I'm starting a live broadcast. Anyone who doesn't want to show their face please stand to the side."
Then with a click of a button, the live broadcast started again.
The seventh cousin laughed and scolded Qiao Qiao: "What kind of hands do you have? Can a watermelon be ripe just by patting it? You can't even pick a watermelon and make it look presentable - come here, I'll teach you."
"etc!"
Qiao Qiao is a very responsible teacher. At this moment, she quickly stopped Uncle Qi and went to the live broadcast room to take a look:
"Uncle, I'll tell you later. I'll learn with the kids—are all the kids here?"
He leaned in front of the camera, but his eyes were looking at Zhang Yanping who was adjusting the live broadcast room.
Zhang Yanping saw the flawless face on the screen approaching him. Even though he saw it every day, he couldn't help but hold his breath at this moment.
How should I put it? With Qiao Qiao's face, she should obviously be a host in the beauty zone.
Sure enough, after a brief silence, the barrage exploded again—
Just came in and was hit by beauty
Baby, auntie will give you a kiss first today
No, no, baby, let your sister bite your cheeks
Son, mom is here!"
My goodness, the ethical relations in this live broadcast room are quite messy. Zhang Yanping simply can’t bear to watch it.
Fortunately, there are still serious people.
Here we come!
The anchor always starts broadcasting so unexpectedly, luckily I turned on the notification
What's live today
What a huge melon field! Selling melons
The peach blossoms are gone, but there are still a lot of fruits on the peach trees. Do you want to sell the peaches
Pre-sale
Link up
As more people came and more people spoke, the atmosphere in the live broadcast room became more lively. In just a few minutes, the number of viewers had reached three to four thousand.
Zhang Yanping once again lamented Qiao Qiao's popularity, then took a step back and decided to ignore it.
Qiao Qiao also turned the camera and looked at the number of viewers above. He could understand a little bit now under Xin Jun's guidance, so he smiled sweetly: "So many children are here!"
"Okay, Uncle, you tell me. I will learn with the other kids."
Then he said, "Children, today I will teach you how to pick watermelons. Teacher Qiao Qiao doesn't know either, so let's learn together."
Seventh cousin: … He felt a little embarrassed to be so serious all of a sudden.
But after all, he was old and had experienced a lot, so he cleared his throat and waved Qiao Qiao to come over.
Zhang Yanping took a look and realized that he was just a tool today, so he simply raised the tripod and the camera moved forward following Qiao Qiao's angle.
In the green melon field, I saw a round watermelon in front of me, which was particularly cute.
There were two or three watermelons scattered nearby, so my seventh cousin simply moved the watermelons and their vines over here, and then picked two watermelons and placed them together.
"Come, I'll teach you how to choose."
"You said clap before - let me ask you, can you hear clap?"
Before Qiao Qiao could speak, the commentator spoke first—
I can't hear it.
To be honest, I think patting is just a prelude to buying watermelon
Pat: I seem to understand, but actually I don’t understand anything
Every watermelon I took a picture of looked ripe, but it wasn't the same when I cut it open.
My goodness! Melons are so expensive right now that I dare not buy any from roadside stalls, for fear that the melons I pick won’t be sweet and I’d be too embarrassed to return them. So I’m waiting for your instruction.
The two melons looked about the same size and seemed to be no different, but my seventh cousin pointed at the wavy lines on the watermelon:
"If you can't listen to the sound, first you have to look at the pattern on the watermelon. The ones that are full, not broken, and stretched out, and a little wider, have full flesh inside, just like when a person has too much subcutaneous fat, the skin will be stretched out. It's the same principle."
“This is a good melon.”
"Like the one next to it, the stripes are so close together. This means it hasn't eaten enough, hasn't absorbed enough nutrients, and hasn't grown yet. It needs to grow more."
In the live broadcast room, everyone was shouting "Wow!"
However, Uncle Seven's teaching is not over yet.
"Next, look at the melon vine. People say that when a melon is ripe, the vine starts to shrink, and only then can the stalk fall off."
"When it shrinks, won't this place become smaller? So you see the place where the watermelon is connected to the vine, this belly button-like place, isn't it very small? This is when it's ripe."
"Like the one next to it, it's still growing, so the vine is still thick and green. If you pick it now, your belly button will be very big."
Learned
Good guy! I can't tell what the pat is, but I can tell by the pattern.
When the melons are ripe, can we still use them to pick them
If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have been humiliated by that white-faced idiot last year.
I'm going to the melon stall to avenge myself soon.
Zhang Yanping's eyes lit up as he heard this, and he quickly stabilized the camera.
"Besides, our local melons are rarely grown in net bags, so most of them grow close to the ground."
"This side, which is close to the ground, is yellowish. Firstly, it is not exposed to the sun, and secondly, it is the color of the soil. Watermelons exposed to the sun and wind are just like greenhouse vegetables and wild vegetables. The vegetables in our fields have the flavor of vegetables, so watermelons like this are sweeter."
"However," Uncle Qi glanced at the live broadcast room again, "Now there are too many watermelon growing bases all over the country. Some places are more scientific. In order to save space, they put the watermelons in net bags. That kind of watermelon can't touch the soil, but it's still sweet. We can't use this method."
Learned, learned
I love eating watermelon that is close to the ground
Otherwise, how can we say that it is the essence of the sun and the moon and the nourishment of the land
The hanging melon has no soul
How many people would hang summer melons? Usually they are done this way during off-season, to facilitate sunlight and temperature control.
Here, the teaching is not over yet.
"The last move is clapping, and the sound of clapping naturally has to be particular."
My seventh cousin reached out and patted the green egg, making a crisp "dong dong dong" sound.
"Did you hear it clearly? That crisp sound is what it sounds like when it's raw. When it's overcooked, it makes another sound."
but…
He stood in the field and looked around: "There's none right now, don't shoot the overripe ones yet, shoot the ripe one next to it yourself and listen to the sound."
Everyone in the live broadcast room also pricked up their ears, preparing to seriously learn how to identify melons by their sounds.
As a teacher, Qiao Qiao had a serious look on his face as he planned to put it into practice.
His hands were too white in the sunlight, and before anyone in the live broadcast room could comment, he was seen gently patting the watermelon twice.
Before the ripeness feedback could be seen, a crisp "crack" sound was heard. Zhang Yanping moved the camera over and saw an irregular crack in the middle of the round and plump watermelon.
The seventh cousin said, "Ouch!" "This watermelon is good! It's ripe at the right time - come!"
He quickly picked up the watermelon on the ground and broke it open along the crack.
The emerald green melon skin gradually turns slightly white and is very thin, only a few millimeters.
Inside is a bright red flesh, and in the sunlight, the juice sparkles with crystal luster.
