The servant girl had brought the freshly cut watermelon and put it on the table. Mrs. Li and adult Li saw the bright red watermelon and took a piece and ate a few mouthfuls, "yes, this... This watermelon tastes very good!"
"Well, it's really good." Mrs. Li nodded. "It's better than the usual watermelon we eat. Uncle Li, you always have an eye."
"Hehe, thank you for your praise," housekeeper Li said with a smile. "If you want to say, this watermelon still has some origin."
"What's the origin? Tell me?" Mrs. Li asked excitedly.
Mr. Li waited while eating watermelon.
"Hehe, this watermelon was planted by sun Meimei, the servant girl beside our girl. I asked the old slave to send a message to sun Meimei. In order to thank the old slave, they sent me some watermelons. The old slave felt good, so he bought 30 watermelons from the sun family." housekeeper Li replied and took the opportunity to say more in front of the master and wife.
Lord Li didn't care about the servant girls around his daughter and didn't know it very well, but Mrs. Li knew it, thought about it, and asked in some doubt, "it's Meimei. She's a diligent girl. By the way, I heard that her father's legs and feet are bad. Didn't she sign a living deed for ten years in order to cure his father's legs?"
"Yes, madam, Miss Mei Mei did want to heal her father sun Dahai's leg before. Although sun Dahai saved his leg, he is now lame. Later, the family beat pig grass in the mountain, dug a small ginseng and sold it for tens of Liang silver. They found it and wanted to redeem Mei Mei, but it was too far away for them to come, so they put it down and wanted to ask again when the new year came Madam grace. Then his family planted watermelons and sent them to the old slave. He became familiar with them. She was the one who loved her children. By the way, sun Dahai's little daughter was very smart. Because she was accepted as a female apprentice by Doctor Wu of the Wu family medical school in the county, she studied medicine! "
"Doctor Wu of the Wu family medical school?" Mrs. Li was stunned, which was interesting. In the future, if sun Yingying can learn, she will be a female doctor.
There's nothing wrong with knowing a woman doctor with excellent medical skills. It seems that you have to be better to sun Meimei in the future. Don't be wronged in Li's house.
After hearing this, Mrs. Li smiled, "this is really a family that hurts children. I must have sent some things to Meina girl this time."
"A package is not heavy. It seems to contain clothes and a letter. I have given it to sun Meimei when I came." housekeeper Li replied that he couldn't hide it, so he took the initiative to admit it.
Mr. Li ate several pieces by himself, and his whole body was comfortable. Even the dryness and heat of the fire these days also pressed down, "this watermelon is good, isn't it good?"
"The watermelon looks very good. It's round. When the old slave brought it, a big watermelon was put in a basket, so a carriage only carried 30 watermelons." housekeeper Li replied, "why don't you let the kitchen send it, sir?"
"Well, let me see. This watermelon tastes good. It's hot. Eating a mouthful of iced watermelon makes you feel comfortable. If it looks good and can be preserved for a few days, you can go back and buy more, and I'm going to give it to my colleagues and Shangguan." Lord Li thought that he usually had a relationship with his colleagues and Shangguan, and also gave local specialties. If Shangguan ate such delicious watermelon, Naturally, I will think of his good.
