Chapter 223 Planting Watermelons

When Qi Tianhe heard that these plants were actually grown by his own family, he immediately smiled and praised them with great joy: "Hey! These children of ours are really promising!"

After saying that, he seemed to suddenly remember something important and asked quickly, "I remember there's a big open space in the backyard. Does this watermelon have seeds?"

Old Lady Yun understood immediately what her father was thinking and quickly replied, "There are seeds. They're in the kitchen."

Qi Tianhe was so happy when he heard this that he couldn't stop grinning. He said to himself excitedly, "Haha, there are so many seeds in this watermelon. If we plant them all in the ground, then by next year, we will have a harvest of watermelons that we can't eat enough of!"

Tiantian, who was standing nearby, was extremely excited when she heard this. She jumped three feet high with joy, clapping her hands and shouting joyfully, "Great! Great-grandfather, let's go plant some watermelons together!"

Qi Tianhe looked up at the sun hanging high in the sky outside the door, emitting a blazing light. After squinting his eyes to estimate the time, he turned around and looked at Tiantian seriously. He said in a gentle but rational tone: "Tiantian, the sun is so hot, let's wait until it gets dark tonight before sowing. Otherwise, we will be baked like black coal by this scorching sun!"

After hearing what he said, Tiantian nodded hurriedly, expressing her full agreement. After all, which girl would want to become dark-skinned?

At this moment, Qi Tianhe seemed to have suddenly remembered something important. He turned his gaze to Jiang Jiang standing beside him and suggested with a smile, "Jiang Jiang, I think we should bring everyone in our family to the capital. Look, my mansion here is very spacious! It would be so nice for everyone to live together in a lively atmosphere!"

After saying this, he stared at Old Lady Yun expectantly, as if he really hoped to get a positive answer.

When Old Lady Yun heard the idea proposed by her father, she couldn't help but feel moved.

Being able to live together with her family was naturally a wonderful thing, but when she thought of the business she had run in the county for many years, she couldn't help but frown and explained to Qi Tianhe with difficulty: "Dad, we have a lot of business to take care of in the county. I'm afraid we can't leave those businesses and rush to the capital for the time being."

However, Qi Tianhe didn't take it seriously. He just waved his hand vigorously and said with a generous smile: "Hey! This is no big deal! Why don't we just move our business to the capital?"

Old Lady Ke Yun immediately shook her head and said to Qi Tianhe with a wry smile, "Dad, you don't know that our family currently doesn't have enough funds to support us in reopening these businesses in the capital..."

"How can there not be so much money? All the money in my family is left to you!" Qi Tianhe frowned slightly, with a look of displeasure on his face, staring straight at Old Lady Yun and said.

For some reason, he always felt that there seemed to be an indescribable sense of strangeness between himself and his biological daughter.

Hearing her father's words, Old Lady Yun's heart softened, but she quickly responded, "Dad, don't be angry. I know you're good to me. Okay, okay, I'll call everyone in the family over right away."

She shook her head helplessly, looking at her father who was as willful as an old child, and finally chose to obey his wishes.

After saying that, Yun Tingqing picked up the pen again and wrote the second letter.

The words in the letter were full of anxiety and expectation. He urged his family to complete the handover of the business at hand as soon as possible and bring the necessary items to the capital to live together.

After writing, he carefully sealed the letter and sent it to his distant hometown as quickly as possible.

Qi Tianhe stood at the door, watching the letter being taken away by the messenger and gradually disappearing from his sight. He then breathed a long sigh of relief, and the big stone that had been hanging in his heart finally fell.

Thinking of this, a gratified smile appeared on his face, and he was full of infinite longing and expectation for the future.

Time passed like a white horse passing by in the blink of an eye. The fiery red sun slowly sank to the west and finally disappeared completely below the horizon.

Night falls quietly, and stars twinkle in the vast night sky.

Qi Tianhe led his family to the empty land in the backyard, chatting and laughing. Everyone held various tools and a bag of plump watermelon seeds in their hands.

As soon as he arrived in the yard, Qi Tianhe rolled up his sleeves and began to turn over the soil under his feet with great enthusiasm. He didn't look like a 70-year-old man at all.

I saw him waving the hoe, digging the ground vigorously again and again. After a while, the originally hard ground became soft.

Tiantian, who was standing aside, carefully scattered the watermelon seeds into the newly cultivated soil. Her focused expression seemed as if she was completing an extremely important mission.

Next, Old Lady Yun was also not idle. She picked up a bucket of water and slowly watered the places where the seeds were sown.

The water flows gently, moistening the land, as if giving these tiny lives the most gentle care.

The family worked together, each doing their own job. Although busy, they were full of laughter and joy. The whole yard was filled with a warm, harmonious and happy atmosphere.

Qi Tianhe felt satisfied when he saw the backyard full of watermelons.

"Okay, it's almost time, everyone go wash your hands and get ready for bed." Old Lady Yun looked at Tiantian who was having fun in the backyard and quickly stopped her.

Hearing her grandmother's words, Tiantian looked at her third uncle and asked, "Will third uncle be at great-grandfather's house tonight?"

Yun Tingqing looked at Tiantian's expectant eyes, thinking that he had nothing to do these few days and it would be fine to live at his grandfather's house, so he nodded to Tiantian.

Tiantian happily held her uncle's hand and said, "Tiantian, you have to sleep with your uncle at night."

"Tiantian doesn't want to sleep with her great-grandfather?" Qi Tianhe said to Tiantian with some disappointment.

Tiantian looked at her great-grandfather and then at her third uncle, feeling very conflicted.

Tiantian hesitated for a moment, but finally chose her third uncle. She took Yun Tingqing's hand and said to Qi Tianhe, "Great-grandfather, Tiantian wants to sleep with her third uncle today, but I will definitely accompany you tomorrow night!" Seeing this, Qi Tianhe had no choice but to agree with a smile.

At night, Tiantian and Yun Tingqing lay on the bed and chatted.

Tiantian curiously asked Yun Tingqing about the outside world, and Yun Tingqing patiently told her about his experiences and what he had seen and heard.

The two of them talked more and more, and before they knew it, Tiantian fell asleep with a happy smile on her face.

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the window.

Tiantian rubbed her eyes, stretched, and then couldn't wait to find her great-grandfather. She saw Qi Tianhe busy in the kitchen, so she ran over and hugged his legs.

"Great-grandfather, good morning! Did you sleep well last night?" Tiantian greeted.

"Well, it's pretty good. Tiantian, you must have had a good time chatting with Uncle San last night, right?" Qi Tianhe asked with a smile.

"Yes! Uncle San told me a lot of interesting things." Tiantian said excitedly.

Qi Tianhe touched Tiantian's head and felt extremely warm in his heart.

Although he was a little disappointed that he couldn't sleep with Tiantian, he felt relieved when he saw her so happy. In the next few days, the family continued their lives, full of laughter and warmth.
