Eating melons

Chapter 624: Repaying Durian

Xiao Xuemu did not interrupt Wei Wei's nagging, nor did he show any impatience. Wei Wei said he would just listen and took her directly to the durian field.

"Weiwei, what's going on? It stinks. I spent the whole night trying to figure it out. Is it broken? It's cracked."

In fact, Wei Wei had already smelled the scent before Xiao Xuemu finished speaking. She immediately stopped nagging, sniffed, and her eyes lit up when she saw what was in front of her.

"Oh my god, the durian is ripe, almost cracked. This is too good to be true! There are no ants in this space, so you can eat it if it's completely ripe. Hurry up, pick it up! It's a treasure, so precious."

Xiao Xuemu couldn't understand why something that stunk worse than a toilet could be sold at such a high price.

But I still pinched my nose and planned to pick one down, but unfortunately, there was no place to start. It was very prickly to the touch and I couldn't break it apart no matter how hard I tried. I had to go back and get a knife and gloves.

Because it was difficult to pick them up, they picked two and then went back to the room.

This durian is overripe and has already cracked on the tree. It's a pity that there are no insects or ants in Xiao Xuemu's space, otherwise it would have been inedible.

Wei Wei quickly opened the durian and saw the flesh inside. She exclaimed, "This is really a gratitude durian, a gratitude durian."

"This seems to be called something like Musang King."

When Xiao Xuemu was picking the durian, he looked at the label on the tree. It seemed to be called Musang King, not the so-called "Gratitude Durian" that Wei Wei mentioned.

Upon hearing this, Wei Wei burst out laughing. "Isn't it called the Gratitude Durian? Look at these chambers, they're filled with flesh, just like they've come to repay a favor, so it's called the Gratitude Durian."

Xiao Xuemu didn't understand or comprehend it. He only knew that the thing smelled even worse after it was opened, so smelly that he almost fainted.

Seeing Xiao Xuemu's sour face, Wei Wei was not sure. After all, if you like this thing, you really like it, but if you don't like it, it will really kill you.

"Do you particularly hate this smell?"

Xiao Xuemu pinched his nose and said, "This feels even scarier than our brigade's pig farm."

Wei Wei felt that this description was a bit exaggerated. In that pig farm, when summer came, Wei Wei felt that she couldn't even open her eyes. This was not that exaggerated.

Wei Wei picked up a smaller piece of fruit pulp and handed it to Xiao Xuemu.

"Why don't you try a little bit and see if you can accept it? After all, some things really do smell bad but taste good. Of course, if you can't accept it, don't force it."

Xiao Xuemu pinched his nose and closed his eyes, took the durian from Wei Wei's hand, and took a light bite. When he was not breathing, he felt it was okay, soft and a little sweet.

But when he opened his nose and breathed in the smell, Xiao Xuemu felt his stomach churning.

I quickly found a glass of water to wash away the taste in my mouth, but my mouth was still filled with the same taste.

"No, I really can't accept this."

Wei Wei sighed, "Okay, you don't have this blessing, so I am the only one who can enjoy the greatest blessing," and then she stuffed a piece into her mouth.

But just as she finished speaking, she remembered one thing. Xiao Xuemu didn't sleep for long yesterday and needed to rest for a while. When she returned, it would be difficult to explain if Jiang Qi smelled the durian in her mouth. After all, although they both knew it, she still kept it a secret from both sides.

She stayed here for a while. Although the smell of durian was on her body, she could just go outside and let it go. It would be different if she put it in her mouth. This thing seemed to be more fragrant than perfume.

Wei Wei put down the durian. Seeing that Xiao Xuemu was definitely unable to eat it, Wei Wei sold it directly.

"If you can't stand the smell, just put it on the tree. If I have time, I'll come in and take care of it. If you don't have time, it's fine to just leave it on the tree."

Xiao Xuemu nodded, "By the way, that jackfruit is also very ripe, and some of it has cracked."

That thing also stinks, but it's much better than durian. At least he can tolerate the smell.

"It's okay, just put it wherever you want. Now let me out. Go get some sleep. I also need to go out to get rid of the smell."

Xiao Xuemu nodded and took Wei Wei out of the space.

Wei Wei sniffed herself and asked, "I don't smell too bad, do I?"

Xiao Xuemu shook his head. "I can't smell it. My nose, mouth, and brain are all filled with that stench."

"How about you go to the space and take a shower, brush your teeth, and rest for a while?"

Xiao Xuemu thought about the smell in the room and shook his head.

"No, just wait a while."

Seeing this, Wei Wei didn't force it, "Okay, then you can rest. I'll go back first."

Seeing that Wei Wei was really about to leave, Xiao Xuemu reached out and embraced Wei Wei, saying a little aggrievedly, "Can't we just rest here?"

Wei Wei shook her head and said firmly, "No."

If it were normal times, I would just take a break, but now there are so many people here, and it seems that there are many people with bad intentions, so I still have to be a little careful.

Xiao Xuemu sighed and let the person go.

He was just saying that. He knew it would be bad for Wei Wei if she stayed, so he didn't really want her to stay.

Wei Wei couldn't help but remind him, "Rest in the space at noon. You have a little more time, so you can sleep for a while."

Xiao Xuemu nodded, "I understand."

Wei Wei kept reminding him after she left the house, "Hurry up and lock the door and go to sleep."

Xiao Xuemu locked the door obediently. Seeing that the door was locked, Wei Wei did not go back directly, but went for a walk in the vegetable garden.

He went to the well and drew some water to wash his hands and get rid of the smell on his body. He waited until he could no longer smell any smell before returning to the house.

Jiang Qi was already lying on the kang, preparing for a nap, and was a little surprised to see Wei Wei coming back.

"I thought you were taking a lunch break over there."

Wei Wei shook her head. "Nothing. I just asked him something. So many people came today, and some of them had bad intentions. How could I possibly go to his place for lunch? I'm not stupid."

Seeing that Wei Wei also had an idea in mind, Jiang Qi didn't say much.

However, when Jiang Qi thought about the new people, he felt a little tired.

"I don't know what kind of trouble these people can cause. I always feel that they are not peaceful."

Wei Wei patted the small blanket she used to cover her belly and said calmly:

"Don't worry, don't worry. When the enemy comes, we will fight him. When the water comes, we will block it with earth. As for those who are not obedient, do you think we are good children? We are not obedient people either. Haven't we caused enough trouble?"

If they really use tricks against each other, it would be hard to say who would suffer, but it would definitely not be her.
