The Hunter’s Lucky Little Lady Chapter 227 – 227 The Fun of Eating Melon Seeds

227 The Fun of Eating Melon Seeds

Early that morning, Li Shun was the first to get up.

As the saying went, one had to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new. There were many things to do today.

Actually, everything had already been done.

The entire home had been cleaned and the couplets had been hung up.

Big red lanterns and small lanterns were hanging everywhere. At first glance, the red decorations gave off a festive vibe.

Zhao Xiu woke up early in the morning and started cooking rice cakes.

The rice had been cooked the night before. Today, they were going to grind them into rice paste. Then, they were going to put some powder in them and steam them.

Li Xiaoran and Li Xiaoqing had never seen these things during the New Year in the past, so after smelling the aroma early in the morning, they ran over to look.

“So that’s how rice cakes are made? I can already smell the sweetness. I wonder how delicious the rice cakes will taste!” Li Xiaoran said expectantly.

“I have never eaten rice cake before! Few people in our village can make rice cake!” Li Xiaoqing thought for a moment and looked up at her sister. “Sister, have you eaten rice cake before?”

“Of course I’ve heard about it before!” Li Xiaoran originally wanted to say that she had eaten it before, but then she thought of something and quickly changed her words.

“Mom, if you knew how to make it, why didn’t you make it in the past?” Li Xiaoqing didn’t suspect anything. At this moment, she propped up her cheek and stared at the steam coming out of the pot.

“Rice is so expensive! When have we ever eaten rice at our old house?” Zhao Xiu glanced at her youngest daughter and said.

Li Xiaoqing recalled the past and immediately sighed.

“Sigh, now that we’re doing well, I’ve forgotten about our past!”

These words immediately amused everyone.

After this period of recuperation, Luo Cheng could finally get out of bed and walk around.

However, he couldn’t use too much strength. He could only eat, sleep, and go to the bathroom on his own. As for other activities, he could only watch.

As a result, Li Shun delegated the task of packing melon peanuts and candy to Luo Cheng.

This task was very simple. He just had to mix melon seeds, peanuts, and all kinds of candy together.

In addition, there were also some fruits to add.

For example, apples, pears, and citrus.

These things were originally prepared for the relatives who would visit today.

However, Li Xiaoran and the others didn’t want to interact with the Li family at all. Luo Cheng only had Luo Ziyang, so these things were prepared for their own family.

Luo Ziyang walked over, then grabbed a handful of melon seeds and peanuts to chew.

“Sigh, in the past, I always saw others chewing melon seeds and peanuts from one end of the village to the other. At that time, I wondered if melon seeds and peanuts were that tasty. Now, I’ve finally experienced the joy of eating melon seeds myself!”

Li Shun happened to be wiping the dining table. When he heard Luo Ziyang’s words, he was immediately amused.

“Let me tell you! It doesn’t matter if they’re male or female. As long as they’re human, they’ll like it. Even I like to eat melon seeds! In the past, when I planted crops, I liked to save some sunflower seeds. This way, when it’s autumn, I can harvest a lot of melon seeds. When the melon seeds are roasted with fine sand in the pot, it smells heavenly!”

Luo Ziyang’s eyes lit up when he heard that.

“Let’s plant some too!”

“We have to plant them! Let’s plant more at the beginning of the year, so at the end of the year, we can roast more melon seeds and peanuts at home. Everyone can eat their fill!” Li Shun said with a laugh.

“Father, don’t stir-fry all the peanuts. If you eat too much, you’ll get inflammation. I want to cook them with salt and dry them after they’re cooked. Salted peanuts are much tastier than roasted peanuts!” Li Xiaoran said when she came out to get firewood.

“Alright, alright. We’ll plant more peanuts this year. We can eat it however we want!” Li Shun replied happily.

Since his daughter naturally liked it, as her father, he naturally had to satisfy her wish.

Soon, the rice cake was ready. Zhao Xiu even stained a piece of wood with edible red pigment and stamped a red pattern on the rice cake.

“It’s time for breakfast! The rice cake is ready!” Zhao Xiu shouted.

Soon, the people who were scattered around the house ran out to get water and wash their hands.

The dogs at home also ran out to ask for food.

This time, Zhao Xiu wasn’t stingy. She gave the rice cakes to Big Yellow and the other pups.

“Our dogs are also our family members. Thank you for guarding our house and protecting us this year! During the new year, you should eat rice cakes and celebrate!” Zhao Xiu muttered as she handed them over.

After the pups received the rice cakes, they ran outside happily to eat them.

At this moment, the family arrived at the dining table and started eating the rice cakes.

Li Xiaoran picked up a piece of rice cake and put it into her mouth.

As expected, it was sweet and soft. It tasted delicious.

At this time, the rice had an authentic and original taste, so it tasted especially delicious.

Li Xiaoran ate three large pieces in a row.

The others ate even more than Li Xiaoran did.

Even her youngest sister, Li Xiaoqing, ate four pieces before stopping.

“Hahahaha, you’re not as impressive as me. I ate four pieces of rice cake!” Li Xiaoqing teased.

“I’m saving my stomach for lunch!” Li Xiaoran said, unwilling to be outdone.

Li Xiaoqing thought for a moment and said, “It’s fine. I’ll do more chores later for digestion, so I can eat more food during lunch! I’m still a child. I’m still growing!”

As soon as she said this, everyone around her laughed.

However, to be honest, Li Xiaoqing was only 14 years old now. She was indeed still growing.

As the saying went, teenagers had a large appetite during puberty.

In the past, Li Xiaoqing didn’t have a chance to eat her fill, so they couldn’t tell that her appetite was big.

Now that she had come to the Luo family, she ate a lot more.

Even Li Shun couldn’t help but marvel when he saw his youngest daughter’s appetite. Fortunately, his son-in-law was a capable person and could support them. Otherwise, his youngest daughter’s large appetite would scare people away!

Actually, Luo Cheng wasn’t surprised by Li Xiaoqing’s appetite. After all, his subordinates often ate several bowls of rice in one sitting.

Therefore, Li Xiaoqing’s appetite wasn’t a burden to him at all.

However, compared to normal children, Li Xiaoqing’s appetite was indeed a little abnormally large.

Luo Cheng looked at Li Xiaoqing and suddenly thought of a possibility.

Could this girl have martial arts potential?
