I hummed a little tune and walked home quickly. I was about to open the door and go in. I thought, if my grandma finds out and scolds me again, I feel unsafe in the several places I planned to hide. Finally, I chose under the big pot in the kitchen, which made me covered in black ash. I didn't notice. Maybe I was too sleepy and hid the watermelon, so I quietly went back to the mosquito net built by grandma in the yard to sleep.
My grandpa left early, and my grandma was alone. When I was very young, I was taken from my parents and lived alone. I have never been embarrassed. I sleep next to my grandma every night like I did when I was a child. Even though it was a summer night, I still felt a little cool when the breeze blew, so I turned around and hugged my grandma...
Early the next morning, Uncle Jiang came to "provoke the crime." "Dong, dong, dong," Uncle Jiang knocked politely on the firewood door a few times, then pushed the door open and came in. At this time, I woke up, rubbed my still sleepy eyes with my hands, scratched my chicken coop-like hair, and sat up with a yawn. Uncle Jiang weighed a big watermelon in one hand. Two big watermelons with beautiful melon patterns were dangling in front of me. My grandma was feeding chickens in a corner of the yard when she heard someone coming. After scattering the chicken food in her hand, I turned around and glanced at my grandma. I almost laughed out loud with a pop. The black ash on the left and right sides of my face looked like a giant panda in the zoo.
