NovelEnglishHannah was mortified by the diagnosis, hence, she had wanted to please Lady Wilson and her husband by overcompensating them. She had obtained sextra money from selling the coffee machine, so, she used the money to buy sribs and pork belly to cook a wholesmeal for her family. 6 Lady Wilson frowned in dismay when she learned that Hannah had bought vegetables, and she chided her in dissatisfaction, "Oh my goodness, why did you waste money on vegetables?" 1 Hannah asked in surprise, "Mom, we can't just eat meat! We have to have a balanced meal for all the vitamins and nutrients our body needs." 1 Lady Wilson pulled her to the kitchen and pointed to the basket of vegetables she had just stolen and said," See that? I stole all those fresh vegetables from Charlie's yard. They have a large vegetable garden in their yard that we can simply pick by reaching into their fence. We don't have to spend money on vegetables in the future." 8 Hannah suddenly remembered that she had seen Charlie's yard under construction when she went out in the morning. She was curious and surprised about it, but she hadn't given it much thought. 1 She took a closer look at the basket of vegetables and exclaimed, "Wow, mom, you're right! These vegetables look so fresh and delicious, they're even better than the organic vegetables I bought at the market." 3 Lady Wilson nodded with a triumphant grin. She picked up a green cucumber from the basket and said, "Look at this cucumber! So big and long, and look at the little yellow flowers on the stem. It's not only fresh but also very clean like it's been washed!" i Then, Lady Wilson washed the cucumber under the faucet, rubbed it, and then snapped it. The cucumber snapped into two with a refreshingly crisp sound.
A strong, rejuvenating scent exhumed into their noses instantly. Lady Wilson smiled and sighed, "Wow, how can their cucumber smell so sweet and juicy!" Unable to resist the temptation, she put it in her mouth and took a big bite. 9 A contented and invigorating grin immediately surfaced on Lady Wilson's face after the bite. 1 She mumbled inaudibly while chewing the mouthful o f cucumber, "Wow, this is the best cucumber I have ever eaten in my life!" Christopher walked through the kitchen door and immediately smelled the refreshing scent of the cucumber, and he blurted, "Wow, what a strong cucumber fragrance, lethave the other half." Lady Wilson handed him the other half. He took a bite and immediately gave Hannah a thumbs up. "Wow, dear, where did you buy this? It's delicious!" 4 Hannah quickly waved her hand and said, "Oh, I didn't buy this, Mom stole it from next door. Oops, I mean, Mom picked it." i "Picked it?" Christopher looked at his mother in astonishment and asked, "Mom, where did you pick the cucumber?" Lady Wilson smiled coyly and said, "Charlie's house. They cleared a big plot of land in their yard to make a vegetable garden. They planted a variety of vegetables there, and they look so fresh and green. I say it when I went out the door just now, so I cback, took a basket, and went to pick sof the vegetables." 1 Christopher frowned skeptically. "Charlie is not in his right mind, is he? Why did he plant vegetables in his yard?" "Who cares?" Lady Wilson chuckled delightfully." From now on, we don't have to spend money on vegetables, that's the most important thing. We'll just have to go out and pick the best and freshest vegetables from Charlie's yard!" i Christopher giggled gleefully. "That's an excellent idea! We can save money and be healthy!" 5 For lunch, Hannah made several delicious dishes using the vegetables Lady Wilson had stolen from Charlie's house.
Thanks to the fresh greens, the entire Wilson family had a hearty and happy meal.
Harold hated vegetables and avoided eating them usually, but he ate a lot today because they were so delicious!
As the portion of the dishes on the table was getting lesser and lesser, Lady Wilson couldn't help sighing, "I e didn't expect Charlie's vegetables to be so good! I think I'll go to their house in the afternoon to pick smore."
Harold asked frantically, "Grandma, if Charlie finds out we are we are stealing his vegetables will he report us or something?" Lady Wilson snorted disdainfully, "Let him cat m e! If he dares to provoke me, I'll counterattack!" 7 Christopher said with a flattering smile, "Mom, you are the best!" X
