Chapter 256 Buying Durian and Custard Apple

Fortunately, crabs were not expensive at that time and were affordable for ordinary families like them. Because her children loved to buy and eat crabs, Xiao Meifeng always bought a lot of crabs and cooked them in different ways when she got home.

Every time Xiao Meifeng made spicy fried crabs, Zhao Min's mouth would turn red from the spiciness, but she would still not stop. Xiao Meifeng was afraid that Zhao Min would get a sore throat if she ate too much spicy fried crabs.

On weekdays, he often cooks crabs for Zhao Min in different ways, such as crab porridge, spicy fried crabs, stir-fried crabs, steamed crabs, braised crabs, raw pickled crabs, etc. He can be said to be able to cook Zhao Min's favorite food in different ways.

Fortunately, her efforts were not in vain. She gained Zhao Min's motherly attachment to her. Until that incident happened, Zhao Min had always been her close friend. After that incident, Zhao Min had no choice but to leave for a foreign country, and she stayed away for many years.

Thinking of this, Xiao Meifeng felt a little melancholy in her heart. The past was indeed too painful to look back on. Fortunately, Zhao Min and Chen Sibin were back to her side as before, and she didn't seem to have so many regrets in her heart.

In this way, Xiao Meifeng, who was satisfied, took Zhao Min to the vegetable market and bought a lot of things that Zhao Min liked to eat, especially a large basket of crabs. She asked the aunt who cooked at home to take it and went home to wash it first.

Xiao Meifeng turned around and continued to take Zhao Min to the fruit shop to buy a durian and sugar-apple. Because Ruan Wanxin especially liked to eat durian and sugar-apple, Xiao Meifeng would prepare these two fruits every time she asked them to come back for dinner. After all, Ruan Wanxin's knowledge and understanding were recognized by Xiao Meifeng, and she also valued this daughter-in-law very much, so naturally she paid more attention to the food and fruits that her daughter-in-law liked to eat.

Of course, Zhao Min, who was standing by, didn't know that Xiao Meifeng was planning to buy durian and sugar apple. She thought Xiao Meifeng brought her to the fruit store to buy her favorite grapes, so she followed Xiao Meifeng obediently, acting like a good baby the whole time.

The two walked into the fruit shop, and Xiao Meifeng asked the owner loudly as soon as she entered the shop.

"Boss, do you have any ripe durian or sugar apple today? I'd like to buy some."

As soon as Xiao Meifeng finished speaking, Zhao Min frowned imperceptibly. She didn't expect that Xiao Meifeng brought her to the fruit shop, but instead of buying her favorite grapes, she wanted to buy the durian and sugar apple that she hated the most. She didn't like these two kinds of fruits, especially the durian, which was so smelly that it was unbearable. How could anyone eat that thing?

But Xiao Meifeng obviously didn't take Zhao Min's thoughts into consideration. She looked at the boss expectantly, and saw the boss's wife coming out of the shop next door. Seeing that it was an old customer, she answered straightforwardly.

"Oh, Sister Xiao, you're here. A batch of durian and sugar-apple fruits just happened to arrive yesterday. You came at the right time. There happened to be a durian and a batch of sugar-apple fruits that are ripe. I'll ask my husband to get some for you."

After saying that, she called her husband.

"Old Tan, bring out a few ripe durians and some ripe sugar apples for Sister Xiao to choose from."

The boss, who had been in the back room, heard the boss's wife's call and responded from behind.

"Oh, is that Sister Xiao here? She wants durian and sugar apple, right? Tell her to wait outside first, I'll bring them out to her right away."

After saying that, the door to the next hall opened and the boss came out holding a ripe durian and some ripe sugar-apples, greeting us with a smile.

"Sister Xiao, you're here. Here are the ripe durian and sugar apple you requested. Come and have a look. I've brought out this ripe durian, the largest of the batch, so I've brought it especially for you to choose from. If you don't like it, I'll get you something else."

As he spoke, the boss placed the fruit on the counter and turned to select another durian. It was obvious that Xiao Meifeng was a regular customer of this store and often bought durian and sugar apples. Otherwise, how could she be so close to the boss lady and the boss? Zhao Min frowned and glanced at the stinky durian. Before she could move forward, she saw Xiao Meifeng step forward and said.

"Oh, there are ripe durians today. I'm so lucky. They are so big. I like them just by looking at them. I want these ripe durians. Please bring me a bag so I can pick out some sugar apples."

The proprietress beside them was greeting customers with a smile.

"Hey, okay, Sister Xiao, I'll get you a bag right away!"

Soon, he took a plastic bag from the side and handed it to Xiao Meifeng. Xiao Meifeng took the bag, lowered her head, and began to pick sugar apples.

The last time her son brought his wife home, she came to buy durian, but there were no ripe ones. Fortunately, there were ripe sugar-apples, so she could only buy an unripe durian and keep it at home, and she directly treated her son and daughter-in-law to the ripe sugar-apple. As a result, after Ruan Wanxin had dinner at home and ate some sugar-apples, she found that the durian was not ripe. Thinking that the business in the store was busy, she and Chen Sibin went back to the store, and the fruit remained at home.

A few days after Shuang Wanxin left, the durian was ripe and opened. Xiao Meifeng wanted to send it to Ruan Wanxin, but Ruan Wanxin was sent to the army by her son, so she had to eat the durian herself.

Xiao Meifeng had no choice but to try it. Others said that durian tasted bad, but after Xiao Meifeng tasted it slowly, she found that it tasted quite good. No wonder her daughter-in-law Ruan Wanxin loved it. From then on, Xiao Meifeng also fell in love with eating durian. She went further and further on the road of eating durian and could not stop.

How could she not be delighted to have bought a large durian today? It was perfectly ripe, perfect to take home so she and Ruan Wanxin could feast on it.

I'm particularly lucky today. This durian is ripe and has opened its mouth. I can vaguely see the yellow flesh inside, which exudes the unique and overbearing fragrance of durian.

Xiao Meifeng took a deep sniff with satisfaction. The unique fragrance of durian penetrated her nostrils, making her feel relaxed and happy. She hurriedly told the proprietress to use a box to wrap the ripe durian. After all, durian is delicious, but the durian skin is full of thorns. If she didn't wrap it in a box, she couldn't take it back and was afraid of getting pricked.

Zhao Min stood far away at the door of the fruit shop, covering her nose with her hands, looking like a little delicate flower. She watched Xiao Meifeng immersed in the atmosphere of buying fruits, enjoying it so much that she even forgot she was by her side. She couldn't help but remind her in a soft voice.

"Auntie Xiao, this durian is so smelly, how can we eat it? Let's not buy durian and sugar apples. How about some grapes and apples?"

She likes both grapes and apples, but she likes grapes more.

But unexpectedly, Xiao Meifeng seemed to have forgotten her since she entered the fruit shop, and didn't even mention buying grapes.
