"Crazy? I was excited, elated, do you understand? Those chili seeds were given to me by Brother Meng from the Meng family. I wanted him to come and see, to prove that I haven't completely wasted them!" Hua Xiaomai immediately retorted, then turned to Meng Yuhuai and asked, "Will you take a look?"
With such an eager expression on her face, Mr. Meng found it hard to let her down. After a moment's thought, he nodded and said, "Sure, let's take a look."
"Then follow me quickly." Hua Xiaomai could hardly wait, she turned around and dashed off, racing to the vegetable garden behind the house.
Meng Yuhuai couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time, and had no choice but to tie the horse to the tree and hurriedly follow her.
And then...
So, exactly what is so appealing about these sprouting chilies?
Standing beside the garden, Meng Yuhuai couldn't help but silently ponder this question.
