Small Farmer Medical God-Chapter 1553 - 1548: Embarrassing Childhood Stories
Previously, Xiaohe Village was very small, because, to put it plainly, Xiaohe Village was just a small settlement by the river.
The entire population of the village was less than a hundred people...
And now, the size of Xiaohe Village has expanded more than tenfold compared to before.
This expansion was naturally to accommodate the increasing number of visitors coming from all directions.
Of course, even after such a crazy amount of expansion, the main tourist routes were still crowded with people.
To give them a better travel experience, Hu Xiaobei didn’t take them directly to the main tourist routes, but instead guided them through various small paths.
"Master Xiaobei, you used to say you were not familiar with the village, but now it seems you know it better than anyone."
"Exactly!"
Following Hu Xiaobei through various paths, they looked at Hu Xiaobei with shining eyes.
Hu Xiaobei laughed awkwardly, glanced at them a few times, and quickly said, "Let’s not talk about this right now, there’s a watermelon field up ahead, let’s go have some watermelon and take a break."
With that, Hu Xiaobei sped up.
They exchanged glances and quickly caught up.
They were very interested in Hu Xiaobei, and also very interested in watermelons...
...
"Third Uncle, how are the melons growing recently!"
Catching up quickly, they heard Hu Xiaobei asking softly.
They knew Hu Xiaobei was evidently chatting with someone...
Thinking this, they sped up, and as they got closer, they saw a middle-aged man with a smiling face standing opposite Hu Xiaobei.
"Haha, Xiaobei, it’s been a while since you came! The watermelons in the field are growing well; if you want to eat, just go pick one yourself."
Hearing this hearty remark, Hu Xiaobei pointed to the four beauties following behind and jokingly said, "Third Uncle, I brought friends today, if we eat a lot, you can’t feel distressed."
"What are you saying! Even if you eat all the watermelons, I won’t feel distressed."
"Then, Third Uncle, I’ll go pick some!"
"Sure! Go ahead!"
"Mm!"
Nodding again, Hu Xiaobei hummed a tune and walked calmly towards the large watermelon field ahead.
In the watermelon field, Hu Xiaobei looked around...
At that moment, Hu Xiaobei saw a huge watermelon not far in front of him.
Just as he was about to take a closer look, Hu Xiaobei heard footsteps.
Turning his head, he found them standing right by his side.
Seeing them all in high heels or something, Hu Xiaobei quickly said, "Uh... this is a watermelon field, it’s not easy to walk here. You should wait for me at the field’s edge, I’ll come to find you after I pick the watermelon."
"We’re not that delicate!"
"Exactly! We’ve been in the fields before!"
"Right!"
Hearing their response, Hu Xiaobei squinted slightly, said nothing more, and continued carefully selecting watermelons...
Soon, Hu Xiaobei found a particularly suitable watermelon, patted it with a big smile, picked it, and held it in his arms...
Seeing Hu Xiaobei easily pick a good watermelon, they curiously asked.
"Master Xiaobei, are there any tricks to choosing watermelons?"
"Yes! We often can’t pick particularly good ones when buying watermelons."
"Me too!"
When they usually go to the market to pick watermelons, they really have no clue.
So now seeing Hu Xiaobei so easily choose a watermelon, they quickly spoke up.
They wanted to learn a few tips.
That way, buying watermelons in the future wouldn’t be so troublesome.
"Choosing watermelons? I do have a lot of tips on that!"
With a light smile, Hu Xiaobei quickly shared a few tips on selecting watermelons.
From tapping the watermelon to listen to the sound, to observing the texture of the skin, and so on...
After hearing Hu Xiaobei’s explanation, they learned a lot.
Soon, they squinted at Hu Xiaobei, "Master Xiaobei, how do you know so much?"
"Because I’m an expert in this area, I..."
Feeling their admiration, Hu Xiaobei was about to continue talking when he was suddenly interrupted.
"What kind of expert, you just came to steal melons a lot when you were a kid, so gradually you figured out some tricks."
"Third Uncle, what are you saying!"
Hu Xiaobei’s eye twitched, looking somewhat embarrassed at the middle-aged man walking over.
"Oh dear, is this not supposed to be said?"
"I..."
Hu Xiaobei was speechless...
The four beautiful women standing next to Hu Xiaobei suddenly gathered around the middle-aged man.
"Uncle, tell us the story in detail!"
"Yes, we’re really interested."
"Right, right!"
Women naturally have a gossip-loving heart, and they were no exception.
Being surrounded, he glanced at Hu Xiaobei and said, "Actually, there’s not much to tell. When Xiaobei was little, he would often come here to steal watermelons. Because I looked after the melon shed, he didn’t dare turn on the light at night, so he would roll around in the watermelon field."
"Roll around?"
"Yes, roll around! You know, watermelons are big, so you can bump into them when you roll."
"This..."
Their eyes lit up...
They were really surprised, as they had never seen such a method before.
Seeing their eyes light up, the middle-aged man continued, "But this method has some downsides, like sometimes it’s hard to distinguish. Like that time when I was missing two gourds."
"Gourds?"
"Yes, gourds are round too."
"Haha!"
They paused briefly and then burst into laughter. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Standing at the side, Hu Xiaobei’s eye twitched, "That was at the beginning, I inevitably made mistakes, but after coming often, it got better!"
"Master Xiaobei, so you learned your watermelon selecting skills back then!"
"Indeed!"
Hearing their playful banter in low voices, Hu Xiaobei’s eye twitched again, quickly saying, "Um... let’s stop talking about this, let’s go eat watermelon!"
With that, Hu Xiaobei grabbed the watermelon and headed straight to the gazebo ahead...
They chuckled and quickly followed up...
At this moment, they really felt that having Hu Xiaobei as a tour guide was a particularly interesting thing, because following him, they truly gained a lot of knowledge.
...
"Wow, this watermelon is really delicious!"
"Exactly!"
After five minutes of tasting the watermelon Hu Xiaobei picked, they quickly praised it...
Hearing their words, Hu Xiaobei smiled lightly...
Soon, Hu Xiaobei picked up a piece of watermelon and headed towards Third Uncle...
Seeing him smoking, Hu Xiaobei said, "Third Uncle, have some watermelon!"
"You know I don’t like watermelon!"
"Whether you like it or not, you should eat it now, so you can’t badmouth me afterward."
Hearing Hu Xiaobei’s reminder, he laughed heartily, "Xiaobei, what Uncle says isn’t badmouthing, it’s telling the truth."
"It’s the truth, but you shouldn’t say it everywhere."
"Haha, Uncle will keep that in mind! By the way, how come you have time to stay in the village lately? Didn’t you delegate all the village matters?"
"There’s nothing much outside now, so I’m managing things in the village for a while."
"I see! In the future, feel free to come to Uncle’s melon shed, Uncle often gets bored here."
Hearing this invitation, Hu Xiaobei paused for a moment.
Soon, looking at him, Hu Xiaobei seriously said, "Uncle, it’s been so many years, you really don’t need to be alone anymore. If you meet someone you like, find a partner again. I’m sure my aunt, knowing from the other side, wouldn’t blame you."
