Cold Mixed Watermelon Rind_1

This time, without the rinds, everyone ate with even more gusto. A full basin was soon chomped down to empty.

Seventh Uncle originally wanted to caution them to take it easy, but before he could speak, the basin was empty. In the end, he could only switch his approach—

"You guys really can eat."

The ravenous group was still not satisfied, belching while holding their stomachs, eagerly anticipating the cold watermelon rind salad for lunch.

Seeing this, Seventh Uncle could only sigh in resignation:

"How about we skip preparing lunch and make porridge instead? I don't think you have much room left in your bellies to eat anything else. We could cook the porridge now, it'll be nice and cool after a nap, and goes well with the cold watermelon rind salad."

In the sweltering summer heat, having an appetite wasn't easy, and neither was cooking over the stove.

What a great idea!

As soon as this proposal was made, everyone agreed.
