Bab 275: Worth The While

Every year in summers, only those with important status in the mansion would be able to get a few, and concubines as well as disgraced children of concubines would normally get at most one.

Watermelons were the best fruit for summer, and those at the mansion loved it. So did he, though he did not have much knowledge about farming.

Watermelons were never large in number because it was never easy to take care of the fruit. The watermelons would not grow well due to the constant, heavy rain in May and June.

Therefore, there were very few watermelons that were available every year.

The Shao Family had offered two very well-grown watermelons of a large size and it seemed that they did not think that those were precious. That surprised Yuezheng Xiao and Xie Jingrong.
