~7 min read 1,363 words

A moment later, Chen Yunyun touched her belly, her eyes shifting, not daring to look at the remaining half piece of melon.

Her mom was also sitting upright on the small stool in the kitchen picking vegetables, her body straight, as if what was in front of her was not a trash can, but a high-end mahogany table in a conference room.

The atmosphere was stagnant for a while.

After a while, Chen Yunyun couldn't hold back first: "Mom, this half isn't fresh if left, why don't we eat it, and open another one when Dad comes back."

"Fine." Her mom nodded quickly: "You're right."

And then hugged the watermelon to wash it, hand up knife down, crack cut cleanly.

For a time, there was the sound of "crack" gnawing melon in the kitchen.

In the living room, the old lady walked over stealthily, sticking her head to the kitchen door, at her age, she felt her saliva dripping.

But she really didn't dare to say, hearing movement inside at this moment, she hurriedly tiptoed back to her room.

But after listening in the room for a long time, she didn't hear any movement coming out of the kitchen, the old lady's heart couldn't help but stir...

【Speaking of which, currently the best app for listening to books, huanyuanapp, install the latest version.】

And on this side, Chen Yunyun, who felt she was so full, licked her lips and couldn't help but hiccup: "Mom, I'm full. It's just that my mouth is still a bit greedy..."

"Then you can't be full..."

Her mom's eyes were blank, staring at the trash can with melon skins, and she hesitated for a while:

"The melon skins shouldn't have been thrown away just now, picking them up and peeling them could still make a dish..."

Imagining the taste of the watermelon skin, Chen Yunyun couldn't help but sniff her saliva, and then said in a dilemma: "That is, can't waste it! Otherwise, Mom, you cut another one, let's eat a little more, and put the melon skins in the basin."

"This way when Dad comes back at midnight, he'll just eat the remaining half, and he'll definitely put the melon skins in the basin."

"How about..."

The mother and daughter looked at each other and said in unison: "Cut another half!"

This time only cut a small half!

Chen Yunyun finally held her belly and came to the living room, turning around in the room all night, turning the old lady into a panic, wishing she could lock this silly granddaughter in her room.

Finally, it was midnight, Chen Yunyun went to the bathroom a few times, and finally returned to her room. Through the bedroom door, she could hear her playing games and howling there.

The old lady turned over and sat up from the bed, her movements exceptionally agile, and at this moment didn't turn on the lights, feeling her way in the dark to the kitchen.

Then turned on the flashlight on her phone, and with that little bit of light, successfully hugged the remaining half watermelon out of the refrigerator.

She thought, although she had diabetes, she had already taken two sugar-lowering pills just now, and now eating two more bites... just two bites, not too much, right?

To show her determination, this melon didn't even need to be cut, just hold it and eat it with a spoon.

Eating it into a pit, if her son comes back and sees it, it doesn't matter, anyway Yunyun also likes to eat like this.

Thinking this way, she was completely calm.

Not long after, the bedroom door suddenly "clacked".

But the kitchen door was closed, the old lady was closing her eyes and intoxicated, and didn't hear the sound at all.

Chen Dad came back.

The room was dark, at this hour his wife must be asleep, but Yunyun definitely wasn't, see, he could still hear the sound...

He turned on the lights, put down his phone and prepared to take a shower first, but his footsteps paused, as if he heard some movement in the kitchen!

It was late at night, it was pitch black inside, only a little faint light...

He became vigilant—could it be that a thief had entered the house?!

Chen Dad's heart jumped, and he didn't disturb the family, just picked up the dining chair on the side to block in front of him, and then tiptoed to unscrew the door handle.

Then!

Along with the opening of the door, he pressed the light with a "clatter"—

"Oh!"

"Slap!"

The familiar sound rang out, Chen Dad was stunned, hurriedly poked his head to look, but saw a little old lady squatting in front of him, her round body exceptionally familiar.

She was squatting on the ground, picking up the remaining melon skins with her hands full of heartache, looking exceptionally sad and pitiful.

Chen Dad was anxious at the time: "Mom, you eat melon, you eat melon, why are you still—"

"Oh." Halfway through, the good son reacted, his face became cold again:

"Your blood sugar was so scary at the physical examination last week, why do you still dare to eat watermelon?!"

The old lady raised her head stubbornly: "I took sugar-lowering pills!"

And then looked at the watermelon on the ground, full of regret: "I haven't finished eating yet..."

Until this time, Chen Dad had the heart to look at the watermelon that fell on the ground—what haven't finished eating?

This watermelon fell into two halves, it looked like half an empty melon shell, there wasn't much red pulp left!

He remembered something, and gasped: "You still eat so much?!"

However, her mom was talking about something else: "I haven't even scraped the pulp on this melon skin clean..."

This tossing, Chen Yunyun, who was playing games in the room, also heard the movement, and at this moment looked outside, her dad's shoes and bag were at the door.

Look at the kitchen again—

"Wow! Grandma, you actually dare to steal watermelon behind our backs!"

"What's called stealing? What's called stealing?"

Facing her granddaughter, the old lady also became arrogant: "I took medicine! Besides, eating watermelon, how can it be called stealing?"

"But you have diabetes—" Before she finished speaking, Chen Yunyun also stared at the broken melon skins on the ground and shouted: "Why is it so wasteful? There is still a lot on it!"

Chen Dad:... What? Just not seeing each other for a day, Yunyun, who often gnawed watermelons into pits, has become a thrifty little expert?

How else should this melon be eaten? Gnaw through the melon skin!

Really not necessary!

But saw the old lady also with a heart-pained face: "Yes, I was eating, it's all your dad's fault for scaring me! Look, he even moved such a big stool, if he didn't turn on the lights, maybe it would have hit my old lady's head."

Chen Dad was also aggrieved: "I heard movement in the kitchen, and didn't turn on the lights, thinking it was a thief..."

"Which family's thief steals this worthless watermelon!"

The old lady was stubborn.

Chen Yunyun suddenly remembered: "Ah, it's not worthless, this watermelon is 20 yuan a jin."

Chen Dad:...

Chen Grandma:...

The mother and son turned their heads to stare at her: "Yunyun, you've started eating luxury goods!"

Chen Yunyun:... I kindly bought melons, you didn't reimburse me, and still said I ate luxury goods?

She then sighed: "The problem is not eating luxury goods, but you don't know how to cherish. My mom said this melon tasted very good today, and even said to use the melon skins to make a dish. Now it's smashed to pieces, and can't be picked up to make again. Originally only bought 4 melons, said to leave half for you, now it's good, only two are left..."

The old lady was also full of regret: "Exactly! It's all your dad's fault."

Chen Dad:...

Fine, it's all my fault, right?!

He moved the chair away angrily, and at this moment hugged a watermelon and rinsed it under the faucet, then one knife crack two halves!
