Chapter 253: Not Herself

Qiao Xuan placed the two watermelons in the cold-water bucket, waiting for Shao Dalang and the others to return to have a taste.

Ms. Xu asked Qiao Xuan in a staggering voice. "Fifth Sister-in-law, can I take some seeds to my mother's home, so they can plant some next year too?"

"Sure!" Qiao Xuan nodded without hesitation. "The black seeds are ripe. You can take back as many as you want."

Overjoyed, Ms. Xu said, "Thanks so much, Fifth Sister-in-law!"

Ms. Xu felt so happy when her request was granted so easily.

After lunchtime, they surrounded the table and looked at the watermelon with wide eyes. Ms. Fang felt a bit nervous as she cut it.

With a crisp and low sound, the watermelon burst open. The flesh of the melon was bright red, with countless black seeds inside.

This watermelon was brought back from the wild. It was not the excellent variety like the modern times. There were relatively many more seeds.
