I became the male protagonist's wife who died young, and I became a hero by eating melons

Chapter 23: The Money-Making Team of Two Is Formally Established

The child was found. Song Youzhu originally wanted to argue with her mother-in-law, but seeing her current state, she couldn't do it.

He could only hold back his temper, wipe his eyes fiercely, and put his plan aside.

The couple held their daughter in their arms, feeling extremely distressed, and asked Dr. Sun to examine the child carefully.

This was the first time that Doctor Sun had encountered such a situation. It was also the first time he heard that a grandmother had abandoned her granddaughter on the mountain. He sighed and examined Xiao Xier carefully. He finally found that the child was just frightened and needed to go back and have a good rest.

I told the child's parents to stay with the child well, as the child might suddenly cry at night, so they were asked to be patient.

Shen Jiao worked part-time as an on-site commentator outside the clinic, giving a simple explanation of what happened to the onlookers who did not know the truth.

Of course, there is a little bit of exaggeration in it.

Shen Jiao said with great emotion: "Jin Xiufang, she had someone take Xiao Xier to the mountain and left her there. How could a little kid of over 2 years old survive in this mountain? Isn't this just trying to kill her?

How pretty and lovable this little Xier is. His son Xue Shengcai couldn't give birth to a son, so the Xue family finally had a little girl, but they took her to the mountains and abandoned her.

What a sin! Now you are getting retribution!

Those mushrooms are available every year, and I have never heard of anyone getting poisoned after eating them. But she got poisoned after eating them.

This is God punishing her.

His son can't give birth to a son, probably because she did too many bad things."

"Oh my God, you finally have eyes. Jin Xiufang is really bad."

"Poor Xue Baocai and his wife, they finally got such a beautiful baby, but it was almost thrown away by that black-hearted mother."

"How could this black-hearted old woman be so cruel? Xiao Xi'er is her granddaughter."

"I heard that Xue Baocai is not Jin Xiufang's biological son, but her husband's ex-wife's son. That's why she treats Lao Er's family like this."

The discussion among the onlookers was heated, and they subjected Jin Xiufang, who was lying on her bed looking at the stars and knew nothing about it, to a series of verbal trials.

Xue Baocai, who was sitting on the edge of the bed with his wife and children, also heard the discussion outside. Normally, he would not take these words seriously.

But now, I can't help but think about it in detail.

Perhaps, he is really not Jin Xiufang's biological son, otherwise how could she be so cruel to abandon her own granddaughter.

Ji Xiaoxi was enjoying the melon-eating at the scene, and he took out a handful of melon seeds from his system backpack and started to eat them.

He took one for himself and gave one to his son.

Lu Qian'an held onto Ji Xiaoxi's clothes and raised his head to eat melon seeds. The mother and son were very happy watching the show and eating melon seeds.

Seeing this, Shen Jiao, who was standing next to her, secretly stretched out a hand and winked at her, "Xiaoxi, you'll have diarrhea if you eat alone. Give me some quickly."

Ji Xiaoxi raised her chin towards her son and said, "I didn't eat alone. An An also ate."

Lu Qian'an was quite cooperative, raising his little head and grinning, "An'an also ate some melons."

Shen Jiao bared her teeth and rubbed Lu Qian'an's little head vigorously, saying with a smile: "Little one, you know how to cooperate with your mother at such a young age. Second aunt usually gives you a lot of candy."

Lu Qian'an was amused by her and laughed out loud. He raised his little hands and pushed hard against the hands that were making trouble on his head.

Ji Xiaoxi laughed along, pretended to take out a handful of melon seeds from his pocket, handed them to Shen Jiao, and said, "Here, give them to you. Don't tease my son. He just ate too much. Don't make him vomit from laughing."

Shen Jiao took her hand back, took the melon seeds and started to eat them. The more she ate, the more surprised she became. "Xiaoxi, where did you buy these melon seeds? How come they are so fragrant and delicious?"

Ji Xiaoxi looked at the melon seeds in her hand in confusion, "Aren't these just ordinary spiced melon seeds? Have you never eaten them before?"

Shen Jiao held up a melon seed and said, "Is this a five-spice melon seed? How come it's much more fragrant than the five-spice melon seeds in the store? This is the first time I've eaten such delicious melon seeds."

A thought flashed through Ji Xiaoxi's mind, and she held Shen Jiao's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, what do the melon seeds you usually eat look like?"

Shen Jiao: "It's the kind that's fried directly, with a salty and fragrant taste."

Ji Xiaoxi: "Then do you think my melon seeds will be popular if I sell them?"

Shen Jiao: "You still want to sell it? What's the point of selling it? These melon seeds are so delicious, why not keep them for your family to eat."

Ji Xiaoxi: "I know how to fry this kind of melon seeds. I was thinking that when the time comes..."

There is no need to say more about the rest. Shen Jiao, who often sells mountain products, will naturally understand.

She looked at Ji Xiaoxi with her big eyes, "Xiaoxi, you are awesome." Then she nudged her with her shoulder, "Can you give me a share? We can do it together."

Ji Xiaoxi smiled and nodded, "Of course, we will go to the town in a few days to check the situation."

Shen Jiao: "Okay."

The money-making duo was officially formed.

Ji Xiaoxi learned how to roast melon seeds thanks to her part-time job. When she first entered college, she wanted to buy a computer, but her family didn't give her money, so she thought about taking a part-time job to earn money.

I remember it was midsummer and the sun was very strong outside. After taking a walk outside, Ji Xiaoxi didn't want to go out anymore because it was too hot.

As a result, on the way back to the subway, I saw an old man who fell to the ground, and no one around dared to help him.

Ji Xiaoxi glanced at the camera on the pillar next to him, then boldly walked over and helped the old man up.

The old man fainted due to heatstroke. Ji Xiaoxi helped him to a safe place and bought him a bottle of mineral water to drink.

Finally, I learned from the conversation that the old man’s snack shop was looking to hire a part-time girl.

Ji Xiaoxi happened to get the interview.

Originally, she was only needed as a cashier, but Ji Xiaoxi was a foodie and ate the fried snacks in the store every day. Once she ate, she couldn't help chatting with the old man.

The old man got along well with her and taught her the secret of roasting melon seeds.

Ji Xiaoxi had practiced with the old man a few times and the dishes she cooked tasted pretty good, earning the old man’s praise. The old man also said that none of his children were willing to inherit this skill, but he didn’t expect that this little girl Ji Xiaoxi was actually willing to learn it.

Later, I taught Ji Xiaoxi several other methods of stir-frying nuts. When it came to eating, Ji Xiaoxi was particularly patient and learned this skill bit by bit.

But later on, the old man closed his shop. As he was old, his family became worried and took him back home to live out his retirement.

After work, Ji Xiaoxi would try to make some roasted melon seeds at home when she had time. Although they were not as delicious as those made with professional appliances in the store, they were much better than those in ordinary stores.

After all, the old man said that their craft has been passed down for hundreds of years.

Ji Xiaoxi couldn't help feeling proud when she thought that this skill could actually make money in this day and age.

Look, foodies also have their "spring".
