Yuanxi Village.

Li Han received a call from Huang Huaiming.

"Brother Li Han, are you at home today?"

"Yes, what's wrong with Teacher Huang?"

"It's like this. After seeing your gourd baby, my kid wanted to see a gourd. I thought this was a good opportunity for my child to increase his knowledge. So I wanted to take my child to your village to play. Is it convenient for you to see it?

?”

"No problem, Teacher Huang just comes with the children."

"OK, thanks."

"Teacher Huang, you're welcome."

Because of the gourd baby, gourds, an already lovable plant, are indeed more popular than before.

In the streets and alleys of major cities, there are often shops or street stalls selling gourds.

What is sold are fully mature gourds, which are hollowed out and made into gourd pots or other handicrafts.

Of course, there are also gourds sold without any processing.

Business is usually pretty good, and there are still quite a few people buying gourds, but it's not that good.

However, starting from today, the business of various gourd shops or street stalls has suddenly improved a lot.

When the children see it, they will shout "gourd, gourd" in surprise, asking the adults to buy it.

There are even those who directly call "Calabash Baby".

Adults often choose to buy things that are not too expensive.

Even adults without children will happily stop and take a closer look when they see it.

After seeing it, I often buy one or two.

The business of shops or street stalls naturally improved suddenly. Some shops or street stalls even ran out of stock in a short period of time, and all kinds of gourds were sold out.

The bosses were naturally very happy. They had been selling gourds for a long time and had never seen such a good business.

While I was happy, I was also a little confused, why did the business suddenly become so good?

In front of a street stall, after the boss sold out the last gourd, he couldn't help but asked the customer: "Excuse me, can I ask why so many people are buying gourds today?"

The guest smiled and said: "That's because the image of the Calabash Baby was born yesterday. Everyone likes it very much, especially the children. Yesterday and today they are talking about the Calabash Baby."

"Calabash doll?" the boss said, "Where can I see this calabash doll?"

The guest said: "It's in the magazine "Fun Comics" that was just released yesterday."

The boss said: "Okay, thank you."

The guest smiled and said, "Boss, you're welcome."

After that, the guest took the gourd and left. The boss was thinking, "Calabash baby..."

After simply cleaning up the stall, the boss walked to a nearby newsstand and said: "Boss, please bring me a copy of "Fun Comics" released yesterday."

"OK."

The boss took "Fun Comics" from the newsstand owner, looked at the cover, and instantly understood.

"So this is the Calabash Baby, and he looks really cute." The boss thought in his heart. Thanks to this Calabash Baby, his business has become so good.

The boss was very happy and thought that he really made the right choice by choosing to sell gourds.

What makes him even more excited is that today is the beginning of the good sales of gourds, but it will not be the end. In the recent period, gourds will probably sell better.

Even if the sales are not as good as today, the business will definitely be much better than before.

The more he thought about it, the happier he became, and then he hurried back home. He wanted to hurry up and prepare the next batch of gourds, and try to sell more gourds during this period when the gourd dolls were very popular.

In addition to buying old gourds on the street, there are also many children who want to see the fresh gourds on the gourd vines. Those gourds are more like gourds giving birth to gourd babies.

Fresh gourds can be found in a few parks or on the outskirts of cities.

Today, wherever there are gourds, they are quite lively, and many parents bring their children to see the gourds.

The children looked very excited looking at the gourds hanging on the gourd vines.

Because, except for the different colors, the gourds they saw were exactly the same as the gourds hanging on the gourd vines in the comic books.

The children were happy, and so were the parents. They took out their mobile phones and took pictures with their cameras.

…

Yuanxi Village.

Huang Huaiming arrived with his children.

There were several teachers who arrived together, and they all brought their own children.

"Li Han, we are disturbing you again." Huang Huaiming and several other teachers said one after another.

Li Han smiled and said: "The teachers are too polite. I have nothing to do today, so I will just accompany you around."

Several teachers thanked Li Han one after another, and then asked their children to say hello to Li Han, saying that this was the brother who painted the gourd boy.

The children were a little timid at first, but after hearing that Li Han was Hua Gulu Wai's brother, they were no longer timid. They all looked at Li Han with wide eyes and shouted "Hello, brother Li Han".

What a group of lovely children. Li Han laughed and asked the children if they liked Calabash Babies very much?

The children all answered "yes".

Li Han said: "In that case, brother Li Han has a gift for you."

When the children heard that there were gifts, their eyes lit up, but they looked at their father or mother with some anxiety.

Huang Huaiming said: "Li Han, this..."

They have already disturbed Li Han when they came here, and now they want to get a gift from Li Han. How can they be embarrassed?

Li Han waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's not an expensive gift."

After that, he took out the gift. When the children saw it, they said "Wow" and were very excited.

Huang Huaiming and several teachers also had their eyes lit up.

Li Han took out several paintings, each of which was painted with gourd dolls. There were six paintings in total, from the eldest red gourd doll to the sixth blue gourd doll.

This was specially drawn by Li Han for a few children. Although he has not yet mastered comic skills, with the skills of traditional Chinese painting, it is no problem to draw a few gourd dolls.

Each child was given a painting, and they all jumped for joy after receiving it.

Huang Huaiming and several teachers expressed their gratitude to Li Han, saying that Li Han was very thoughtful in preparing such a gift for the children.

Li Han said it was nothing, as long as the children liked it.

Afterwards, Li Han took the teacher and children to the river west of the village.

The children wanted to see gourds. There were the most gourds along the river. There were gourd vines everywhere, covered with gourds of all sizes.

After seeing the gourd, the children were very excited and cheered non-stop.

Huang Huaiming looked at the river and said: "Li Han, in that anecdote, the river where you saw seven big gourds was said to be this river?"

Li Han nodded and said: "It's a little far downstream. Moreover, if you walk from the shore, there is a section of road in the middle that is very difficult to walk."

Huang Huaiming nodded, feeling a little regretful. It would obviously be best if he could see those seven big gourds.

But there are so many children, and it is not suitable to take a bamboo raft to see it, which can only be a pity.
