476 Soon!
The watermelon immediately split open from Xue Erfu’s smash. Xue Erfu hurriedly broke it open, and sure enough, there were no seeds inside.
Xue Erfu immediately said happily, “It’s true! Were there a lot of watermelons like this in the watermelon field? This one is even sweeter than those with seeds, so it’ll definitely be easier to sell.”
“I think there were a few? I don’t really remember.” Jiang Yue was lying.
Xue Yan wanted to cough, but he held back.
“That’s great!” Xue Erfu was overjoyed.
Jinshan laughed. “This fortune of yours is truly unstoppable. When will it be our turn?”
The other ice delivery men laughed and echoed, “I agree! Good for you!”
“Didn’t you say that the wheel of fortune will turn? It’ll be your turn sooner or later,” Xue Erfu laughed.
“Then I’ll be counting on your blessings.” Jinshan and the others laughed. However, many people in their village had jobs now, and they were slowly becoming popular. There was no need to be envious anymore.
Perhaps Xue Erfu’s family was just the beginning, and it might really be their turn in the future.
Thinking of this, Jinshan and the others became even happier.
Then, Xue Erfu shouted, “Father! Mother! If you’re free, come out and eat some watermelon! This watermelon has no seeds!”
Xue Wufu was the first to hear the voice and jumped out like a monkey. He asked anxiously, “Seedless watermelons? What do they look like?”
Xue Dafu and the others were just about to take a break, so they strode out when they heard this.
Yu Hongyan followed behind with small steps. She did not dare to take large steps because her stomach was getting big.
When the pa.s.sersby heard about the seedless watermelons, they all came over to take a look.
Liu Guixia quickly asked Xue Wufu to go back and get a knife for everyone to eat. There were two big watermelons, and they couldn’t finish them all at home.
Everyone was very happy. Naturally, this included those who had been pa.s.sing by but had now stopped to eat seedless watermelons.
They believed that Jiang Yue and Xue Yan’s family were blessed one after another because of the sudden improvement in their lives. Several families in their village were also getting better, so they believed in the saying that the Wheel of Fortune will turn and thought that it would be their turn sooner or later.
“This watermelon is sweet, and it doesn’t have seeds. Dafu, your family should be planting more next year, right?” Someone asked.
Xue Dafu laughed so hard that his eyes couldn’t be seen. “That’s up to Xue Yan and Jiang Yue. If they want to plant more, then they will.”
“But if there are no seeds, how are you going to plant them?” A middle-aged man asked.
Liu Guixia smiled. “Aren’t they grown from seeded watermelons? I’ll save some of the seeds from the seeded watermelons. Maybe we can grow some seedless watermelons next year as well!”
“Yeah!” The people felt that it made sense. “Then, Guixia, give me some seeds when the time comes. I’ll plant a few of them too.”
“Give me some seeds too. Give me some seeds too.” Many people agreed.
“Why do you have to go through so much trouble? Even if our Xue Yan and Jiang Yue don’t plant anymore, I still want to plant some. I will keep the seeds so that when it’s time to grow the seedlings, I can give some away as well.”
“That’s even better, but that’ll be too troublesome for your family, won’t it?” These people were all quite embarra.s.sed.
“What’s so troublesome about it? After all, my family also needs to raise the seedlings. It’s just a coincidence that there will be extra.” Liu Guixia smiled. She didn’t think it was a big deal at all.
“Thank you,” they said.
“You’re welcome,” Liu Guixia replied.
Jiang Yue didn’t say anything when she heard this. She just ate her watermelon silently.
Seedless watermelons were grown from seeds. However, these seeds were not from the seedless watermelons, but were artificially induced to multiply.
