Quick Wear: Passerby A's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons

“Does it really smell like medicine?”

"Yuer, did you figure it out?"

Jiang Yue nodded and motioned to her parents to wait. She first picked up a chili segment and ate it. It didn't have the medicinal taste. Then she picked up a Sichuan peppercorn. Well, now she had found the culprit.

"It's the peppercorns that are the problem. Mom and Dad, try it."

Jiang's father and mother picked up a peppercorn and tried it. They could only taste the numbing taste of the peppercorn, but not the medicinal flavor at all: "This doesn't taste like medicine either."

"Dad, call the store and ask them to find the peppercorns. A large bag of peppercorns should smell like medicine, but a small amount will be overwhelmed by the smell of the peppercorns."

"It's not just this dish that has a medicinal taste. I think all dishes that use large peppercorns have this problem. This old customer is sensitive to the taste and that's why he tasted it."

After knowing the problem, Dad Jiang called the restaurant and found out that it was indeed the peppercorns that caused the problem. However, we are eating now, so we will discuss the specific solution when we go to the restaurant tomorrow.

After dinner, Jiang Yue went to read for a while. Jiang's father and mother thought she was studying, so they didn't let Junjun come over to disturb him. If you don't want a child to do something, just let him do it. So Jiang's mother let him come over, but he ran to play with his excavator after a while. It happened that one of the wheels was broken, so he asked Jiang's father to fix it for him.

After reading for a while, my deskmate called me via video and invited me to play games. Since Jiang Yue was free anyway, she went to play with them. It was quite fun to play with five people.

They played until evening. Seeing that it was getting late and Jiang Yue was still playing, Jiang's mother asked her to go to bed early. Jiang Yue looked at the time and decisively said goodbye to her desk mate and went to bed.

The next morning, Jiang Yue was woken up by Junjun again. After breakfast, Jiang's father and mother went to the restaurant, and Jiang Yue stayed at home to play with the children. Jiang Yue didn't want to stay at home all the time, so she asked Jiang's father to take them to grandfather's house.

After arriving at the grandfather's residential area, Jiang Yue got out of the car holding the child. In the car, Jiang's mother asked Jiang Yue to keep an eye on the child, as the child was too noisy and so as not to tire out the grandparents. Jiang Yue waved her hand to signal them not to worry, and then took Junjun's hand and walked into the residential area.

On the way to the apartment building, Jiang Yue took out her phone and called her grandmother. After the call was connected, Jiang Yue said, "Grandma, are you home?"

"Here, what's wrong?"

"Look where I am?"

"Hey, did you come here by yourself? Where are your parents?"

At this time, Junjun also heard his grandmother's voice, and he pulled Jiang Yue's hand and kept calling her grandmother. Jiang Yue was so annoyed by him that she handed him the phone. Although he was young, he had already learned how to make video calls.

"Grandma, I'm here."

"Junjun is here too, wait for grandma, I'll pick you up."

Jiang Yue's grandmother was in a hurry and hung up the video without waiting for Jiang Yue to say anything. Jiang Yue wanted to say that there was no need for that, as she didn't know the way, but it was too late now.

Junjun was about to call back when Jiang Yue took the phone over and said, "Let's go. Grandma is here to pick us up. Stop playing with the phone."

"Okay."

Jiang Yue took Jiang Jun to her grandmother's house. Just as they reached downstairs, her grandmother came out of the elevator. When Junjun saw her grandmother, he let go of Jiang Yue's hand and ran towards her.

Looking at the way they look, I thought they hadn't seen each other for a long time. In fact, grandma sent Jiang Yue stewed chicken last week. Knowing that she was about to take the college entrance examination, she sent her food from time to time. Jiang's mother even said that she thought she was abusing the child at home, saying that she was not eating enough or something.

When getting in the elevator, Grandma asked Jiang Yue how she had time to come here. You know, this is the last semester, and the original body has a lot of schoolwork and can't go out, otherwise he wouldn't have died suddenly and asked Jiang Yue to come over.

"My mom and dad went to the store, and I didn't want to stay at home, so I came to your place."

"Have you finished the test papers?"

"Well, there are still dozens of days before the college entrance examination. There is no point in cramming at the last minute. It is better to relax."

"By the way, what do you want to eat today? Grandma will make it for you."

"Oil-splashed noodles!"

"Okay, let's eat oil-splashed noodles."

When we got home, grandpa had already washed a plate of fruit, all of which were the siblings' favorites. The children were being taken care of by their grandparents, so Jiang Yue had some free time. She ate some fruit, lay on the sofa, and played with her phone.

It was almost noon when the old man took Junjun to buy groceries. Jiang Yue was too lazy to go out so she stayed at home and watched TV. Maybe Jiang Yue watched TV with the result in mind, she always felt that the content of the news was meaningful.

After watching TV for a while, someone in the WeChat group called her to play games. Jiang Yue looked at the time and saw that her grandparents were about to come back from shopping, so she sent a voice message saying that she would play again in the afternoon and that it was time to eat. Just after sending the message, Jiang Yue heard Junjun's voice. Jiang Yue put down her phone and ran over to open the door for them.

After opening the door, Jiang Yue took the item from Grandpa's hand. It was quite heavy when he held it in his hand. Jiang Yue leaned forward and asked Grandpa, "Grandpa, what did you buy that is so heavy?"

"I bought half a sheep and cooked the mutton for you."

"Then I want to eat braised lamb chops."

"Okay, Grandpa will make it for you."

After putting the food in the kitchen, Jiang Yue was driven out by her grandmother: "Call your mother and ask if they are eating at the restaurant or going home."

"Ok."

After taking a big bite of the ice cream that Junjun handed over, Jiang Yue made a video call to Jiang Ma. Jiang Yue was not Wuliang's sister, but mainly because he was young and couldn't eat too much, so it was just right to give Jiang Yue some. After the video was connected, Jiang Yue saw Jiang Ma and the others in the car, probably coming over for dinner, but she still asked: "Mom, grandma asked if you guys would come over for dinner?"

"We're on our way there, ask your grandma to make more."

Jiang Yue turned around and shouted towards the kitchen: "Grandma, my mom said they are coming over for dinner, please make more." Then she said to Jiang's mom: "Mom, please stop by the supermarket and buy some drinks. Grandma's house doesn't have anything to drink."

"So what would you like to drink?"

"Just buy some, anything with a little flavor will do."

Grandma heard what Jiang Yue said and said to her at the kitchen door: "I'll make mutton soup later. Don't you want to drink it?"

"Drink it, it won't delay my drink. Okay? I'm hanging up now. Remember to buy some."

Junjun came over when he heard Jiang's mother talking. Jiang Yue pretended to bite his ice cream and then scared the child away. He ran very fast with his short legs and looked back to see if Jiang Yue was chasing him. Jiang Yue saw him running to his grandfather to complain to Jiang Yue: "Grandpa, my sister is bad! She ate all my ice cream."

"Junjun, be good. Grandpa will give you the whole one tomorrow. We won't give it to your sister this time."

"Give it to her. Just eat less."

This made Grandpa laugh. He pinched his nose and said, "No wonder you are bullied."

"No bullying, no bullying."
