    ?

    Grandma took us home.  The younger sister was still complaining that she was not given a chance to talk to her uncle, so she hung up the phone.  However, with the new snacks, my sister didn't say anything.  Happily eating her beef gluten.

    "Your father told you to be obedient in the house, concentrate on studying, and take good care of your sister, do you understand?" Grandma said as she walked.

    "Well, he told me, did my dad say anything?" I stared at grandma expectantly

    "They may come back in a few days, and they will go to your uncle's hometown to have a bowl of wine"

    "Oh, I'll be back in a few days, did you say when?" Speaking of this, I was already very happy.

    "No, maybe it's just two or three days," grandma guessed.  "Your aunt and uncle should come to pick up Lei Dan."

    "What? Have my dad and the others come back?" the younger sister said excitedly.

    "Well, we set off from Leshan early in the morning and should be arriving in Chongzhou soon." It was obvious that grandma was also very happy to hear the news.

    "The eldest son-in-law is coming back, hahaha" I am also very happy in my heart, because it is rare to have guests at home, and when there are guests, it is not only lively, but also indicates that I will be able to eat hearty dishes.

    The group of three had just returned home, and before they had rested for two minutes, footsteps came from outside the gate.

    "Mom, I'm back!" Auntie opened the door and shouted loudly.

    "Mother!"

    "Auntie!" My sister and I yelled almost at the same time.

    "Yaonu, come here and hug me, let's see if you've grown." The eldest uncle also came back, and walked into the courtyard.

    "Father!" The younger sister ran towards the uncle with open arms, jumped up and hung on the uncle's neck.

    "Oh! It's so heavy! It looks like it's gaining weight! Did you listen to grandma here?" the elder uncle said, putting down his sister.

    "Listen! I'm very obedient," said the younger sister cutely.

    "Ren Tao has also grown taller," my aunt said to me.

    "It's a little bit longer, hehe," I said embarrassedly.

    "Come back!" Grandma hurried out of the kitchen

    "Mom, where is the old man?" my aunt asked.  "Mom" the eldest uncle is carrying things to grandma

    Grandma took the things from the eldest uncle, and then said: "Just come back, what to buy, I have been sitting in the car for a long time, take a rest and drink some water", and then walked into the kitchen with the eldest uncle and aunt.

    I just stood by the table, staring at a lot of things on the table, carefully calculating which ones I can eat, and which ones can be stored and eaten slowly.

    A piece of pork, a golden-yellow duck, and a round and black one.  In addition, there are many small snacks, potato chips, morning tea biscuits, kiss shrimp crackers, wow, just looking at it makes people drool.

    "Ren Tao, my uncle didn't buy anything for you, so I'll give you 10 yuan, and you can buy whatever you want." The uncle stuffed me with a piece of ten yuan.

    This makes me so happy!  For me, who usually only has 50 cents in pocket money, this is undoubtedly a huge sum of money!  Enough for me to eat for a long time!

    "Thank you, uncle!" I said happily from the bottom of my heart.

    "Concentrate on your studies and try to get into a good school!" The words of the elders are always so pure that they hope you will live well.

    "Mom, this is the sweet-skinned duck I bought from Leshan, try it later and see if it tastes good." Aunt pointed to the golden duck on the table and said.

    "There is another coconut, Ren Tao, you can eat it with your sister." The uncle handed me the round, dark coconut.

    "How do you eat this coconut?" I took the coconut handed over by my uncle, and stared at it carefully.  It is very heavy to hold, about 2-3 catties, dark gray, with a brown silk-like layer on the skin. When you shake it vigorously, you can hear the sound of rippling water inside.

    "There is a very hard shell on the outside, you need to break it open with a knife, take a small bite, and drink the water inside." The uncle's explanation made me understand instantly, put down the coconut, ran to the stove, took the kitchen knife, and thought about it  , gave up; and ran to the bedroom to pick up grandpa's "old scimitar" and came out. The reason why it is called old scimitar is because this knife was eliminated by grandpa. There are many gaps in the knife, so I can't continue to cut bamboo with grandpa  , I threw it at home and chopped some hard things temporarily.

    Fix the coconut on the table with a handkerchief, signal the younger sister who is approaching to stay away a little bit, raise the knife and drop it, only to hear a "ding", the coconut does not move at all!  It seems that my strength is too small!  Aim at the place where I just chopped, and cut 4-5 times in succession, and then I collected my strength and put down the knife.

    hehe!  The coconut was still not cut open, and after a few cuts, there were still only some shallow marks left.

    & nbsp; "The knife is missing!" I said helplessly.  "Uncle, are you sure you want to cut this with a knife?" I said to the uncle with a look of doubt.

    The eldest uncle also looked embarrassed, and said: "Yes, when I went to buy it, that person asked me if I should cut it open. I want to take it so far. If it leaks after cutting it, just say take it."  Come back and chop again, who knows it¡¯s so hard.¡± The elder uncle smiled again: ¡°Did you not use your strength?¡±

    "Look, the knife is missing! I didn't use any strength." I raised the knife in my hand helplessly.

    "Hahaha, your grandpa came back to talk about you, and the knife is missing." Auntie took the knife in my hand, looked carefully, aimed at the place I cut just now, and made 2 knives in a row, slightly leaving the coconut's "  The wound" is a little deeper

    "Hey, I can't handle it, come here, here it is for you, you take it and get it slowly, if you can't get it open, you won't be able to eat it" said my aunt, pushing the coconut to me.

    All of these, I didn't say to be considerate of our little kid, well, I'll figure it out myself!  Carry the coconut to grandma's bedroom and put it on the rice cabinet.  I found another small knife, pointed at the previous opening, and poked open the skin bit by bit. My sister who was beside me wanted to try, but I refused.

    Tear open the brown silk of the epidermis, aim at the deeper area, and go down with a machete, "click"!  "Boom"!  Finally, a hole the size of a coin appeared in front of my eyes, and the crumbs from the hole fell into the coconut.

    "Wow! Brother, you are so powerful, you have knocked this out!" My sister looked at me with a look of admiration.

    "That's it! Hey, let's go, my brother will take you to drink it" I came out with the coconut in my arms, took a big bowl, and poured all the water in the coconut into the bowl.  When you're done pouring, give the coconut shell a shake and set aside.  Holding the bowl, I took a sip, um, it has a special taste.

    He took the bowl and handed it to his younger sister, who also took a sip.  "Um, brother, what does this taste like? It's so strange. It doesn't taste good at all. You should drink it." It seems that my sister is not used to it.

    Passed the coconut water one by one to grandma, uncle, aunt, and grandpa who just came back.  After everyone took a sip, they found that no one liked to drink this.  They said they don't want to drink anymore.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
