Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Yu Hongyan, Li Hehua, Xue Yifu, and Zi Cui also looked at Xue Dafu.
“It’s so sour!” It was Xue Dafu who spoke. He really couldn’t eat anymore and quickly threw away the small piece of lemon in his hand.
It was so sour that he was about to cry.
After saying this, he hurriedly went to rinse his mouth.
He felt his teeth ache.
Why was there such a sour thing in this world?
Finally, Xue Erfu was able to speak. He wiped away his tears and smiled. “This is even more sour than the green oranges, but it tastes almost the same as sour oranges. Humans can definitely eat it, but it’s especially sour. Personally, I can’t stand it.”
As he spoke, he threw away the remaining lemon in his hand and went to rinse his mouth.
“That’s so sour…” Liu Guixia felt that her husband and second son were exaggerating. She did not believe it and took a bite herself. Her face immediately changed. “Oh my- it’s really sour.”
Yu Hongyan, Zi Cui, and the others didn’t dare to be as bold. They only took a small bite. It was indeed very sour. Then, they didn’t want to eat anymore.
Xue Erfu walked back and saw that Yu Hongyan was not eating anymore. He teased, “Didn’t you crave a lot of sour food when you were pregnant?”
“Didn’t I already give birth?” Yu Hongyan smiled and handed the lemon in her hand to Xue Erfu.
Xue Erfu quickly threw it away.
Yu Hongyan smiled at Li Hehua. “Don’t you like to eat sour food now? Hurry up and try it. You’ll definitely find it delicious.”
“Sure…” Li Hehua replied softly. Then, she took a bite in anticipation. Her eyes lit up immediately. “It’s delicious.”
Liu Guixia was still worried about the sourness of the golden fruit as she smiled and said, “It’s good that you think it’s delicious. By the way, Youyue likes to eat sour food too. I’ll send a few to her now. If there’s not enough, I’ll give her more. There’s so much. I think only the two of you can stand the sourness of this thing in the family.”
“Let me do it.” Zi Cui hurriedly said.
“That works too.” Liu Guixia gave the few yellow fruits she had just picked up to Zi Cui.
“Jiang Yue, you guys should give this a name as well.” Xue Erfu drank the water while smiling at the two children.
Xue Yan thought about how he had stuffed a small piece of lemon into Jiang Yue’s hands and was afraid that Jiang Yue would be angry. Just as he was about to speak, Jiang Yue expressionlessly ate the lemon in her two little hands while calmly saying, “When I picked this fruit yesterday, Xue Yan said that this fruit looks really good and he wanted to give it a nice name. He wanted to call it a lemon.”
“Lemon it is then.” Xue Erfu and the others didn’t care what they were called. He was already used to the two children naming these wild things. In fact, no one even asked what lemon meant.
If he really wanted to ask Xue Yan, Xue Yan wouldn’t know either way…
“Hongyan, you should give some to Xiaohui too. She’s pregnant too, isn’t she? She’s been craving sour tasting food as well…” Liu Guixia said to Yu Hongyan.
“You’re right, I should.” Yu Hongyan quickly agreed. Then, she used a basket to fill up half of the basket and sent it to Tian’s house for Xiaohui.
Actually, the lemons were now all in the cellar. There was only about a basket in the central room. Even if Yu Hongyan sent away half of the basket, there were still quite a few in the central room.
Liu Guixia had wanted to give some to the other villagers to try. Perhaps some of them also liked to eat sour food. A few of them took some home. After taking a bite, their faces immediately became sour. There were some villagers who liked to eat sour food, but they could not stand the intensity of the sourness. They shook their heads violently and said no to it..
