Transformed into a mother of four children: Eating meat every meal during a famine

Had New Year's Eve dinner.

nothing to do.

Su Yunluo took everyone to watch the stars in the yard.

"We will divide the New Year's money differently this year. I will ask a question. If you answer it correctly, you will be rewarded with one tael of silver. If you answer it wrong, you will be deducted one tael of silver. Now, please raise your hands if you want to participate!"

Children are always the most active.

Bai Wei and others did not lag behind and signed up enthusiastically.

"Seventeen, Eighteen, what about you two? Do you want to join in?"

Seventeen: "We..."

"Okay, you guys join in too."

The two who were about to say "no" swallowed the rest of their words silently.

"Okay, I'm very pleased that everyone is so enthusiastic. Let's start with a simple one. What is the name of that star over there?"

"It's Mercury." The second brother spoke first.

"The answer is correct." Su Yunluo took out one or two taels of silver and put it in the second brother's hand.

The second brother held the silver, put it to his mouth and kissed it: "Wow, thank you, mother."

"For the second question, please listen to the question..."

Su Yunluo asked ten questions in a row, covering all aspects, but only a few people responded quickly.

"If anyone fails to answer a question later, they will be punished."

Seventeen and Eighteen, who had been slacking off, suddenly became alert.

Prick up your ears and start listening carefully to the questions.

"For the next question, we won't answer questions, but have a competition. Let's compete in peeling melon seeds. Whoever peels the most melon seeds in the same amount of time will get a reward." Su Yunluo took out the melon seeds and put them on the table.

Everyone can catch as many as they can peel.

"I'll count to one hundred. Now everyone grab the melon seeds first."

The eldest came first and grabbed a big handful.

The second and third brothers thought that if their eldest brother could only peel so little, then they certainly couldn't peel much either, so they only grabbed a handful.

Wang Mengmeng gave up immediately: "I'm sure I can't beat you all. I give up."

The three brothers looked at each other and said nothing.

The rest of the people also grabbed the melon seeds that they thought they could peel.

After picking up a circle of melon seeds, there are still half left.

Seventeen poured out one third of the remaining melon seeds.

Seeing this, Bai Wei couldn't help but say, "Can you peel so many? Even if you have ten hands, you can't peel so many!"

Seventeen smiled shyly: "I'll try."

He handed the remaining melon seeds to Eighteen: "How many do you want?"

Eighteen poured all the remaining melon seeds in front of him.

Bai Wei became even more anxious: "Did you hear what Divine Doctor Su said?"

"I heard it clearly." Seventeen and Eighteen said at the same time.

"Okay..." Bai Wei just wanted to see how these two were going to peel the melon seeds.

Su Yunluo smiled and looked at everyone: "Are you all ready? Ready, go. 1, 2, 3..."

Su Yunluo counted at a steady speed.

Everyone started to crackle the melon seeds.

The eight immortals cross the sea, each showing their magical powers.

Some peel it with their hands, some use their mouths to chew it and then spit it out, and some use both hands and mouths at the same time.

Bai Wei was peeling melon seeds quickly while keeping an eye on Seventeen and Eighteen.

I saw that Seventeen was not in a hurry to peel the melon seeds, but slowly spread the melon seeds on the table and arranged them neatly.

Then, he concentrated his Qi into Dantian and raised his right hand high.

After the internal force was gathered in the right hand, he slapped it down fiercely!

After a neat snap, all the melon seeds cracked.

Seventeen lay on the table and blew out a breath.

The skin of the melon seeds should be kept as the skin, and the kernels should be kept as the kernels.

Ordinary people trying to peel melon seeds: "..."

What's the point of peeling it?

As for Eighteen, he found a cloth bag, put all the melon seeds in it, then gathered his inner strength into the palms of his hands and rubbed them vigorously on the cloth bag.

Open the bag and pour out the seeds...

"Oh!"

The girls watched eagerly, and when they saw the melon seeds being broken into crumbs because of excessive force, they couldn't help laughing out loud.

eighteen:"……"

What a shame!

In the end, without a doubt, Seventeen won.

Su Yunluo gave Seventeen one tael of silver.

Seventeen showed a silly smile.

Handsome and cute.

"Okay, next is the last competition. We will compete in holding our breath in the water. The one who can hold his breath the longest wins." Su Yunluo announced.

"Ah?" The girls didn't like this kind of competition very much.

However, they were not discouraged. They participated openly even though they knew it was not their strong point.

A basin of water for each person.

Su Yunluo counted down: "Three, two, one! Start!"

"Splash", everyone buried their faces in the water at the same time.

The first one to stand up was Zhao Zhaodi.

It is estimated that he only held his breath in the water for about 20 seconds.

The second person to get up was Bai Wei.

Then they got up quickly, one after another, raising their heads from the basin.

Panting for breath.

As expected, in the end only the eldest brother and three others, seventeen and eighteen, were still holding their breath in the water.

Su Yunluo estimated the time and found that about two minutes had passed.

When the time was almost up to three minutes, the eldest brother could hold it no longer and suddenly raised his head from the water.

"Huff, huff, huff..." He really tried his best!

However, he accepted the defeat to Seventeen and Eighteen with a sincere heart.

The stronger your internal strength, the longer you can hold your breath.

Although he practiced diligently every day, he never slacked off even for a single day during the more than two months of traveling.

But practicing martial arts cannot achieve transcendence overnight.

Seventeen and Eighteen have practiced for more than ten or twenty years longer than him, but they are still impossible to surpass.

The eldest brother expected that the gap between himself and the two of them would be huge, but he didn't expect it to be this big!

He felt that the time they could hold their breath was at most two or three times, or three or four times longer than his.

Because the longer you hold it in, the more internal strength you will need to increase exponentially! It's not just a simple one-to-one ratio.

however……

Ten minutes have passed...

Fifteen minutes have passed...

Twenty minutes passed...

Including Su Yunluo, everyone was a little worried that the two had drowned...

"Are you... okay?" Su Yunluo asked.

Two people raised their hands to show that they were fine.

"Twenty-five minutes!"

"thirty minutes!"

"Thirty-five minutes!"

After more than thirty-five minutes, Seventeen finally couldn't hold it anymore and suddenly raised his head from the water.

Within two seconds, Eighteen also raised his head.

Both of them were panting.

Seventeen said with admiration: "Not bad, Junior Brother, you are better than me."

Eighteen said modestly: "Maybe I'm in a good mood today."

Su Yunluo gave Eighteen one ounce of silver as a reward: "You two are really amazing. You have been holding your anger for so long. It's really scary."

Seventeen and Eighteen are both proud and shy.

Seventeen explained: "It's nothing, actually. We have to accept breath-holding training since we were young. To become a secret guard, in order to better hide our identity, sometimes we are not even allowed to breathe."

"Thank you for your hard work." None of the 365 jobs is easy!
