And when he got there, he saw a lot of fruit. In India they have plenty of fruit to sell, but much of it is because they can't grow much the water situation. So he saw one basket, a big basket of some very red, long fruit. And it was the cheapest in the shop, not expensive at all.

As he coughed terribly , he up and down, saying, "Ah! Ah! Ah!"
But he still continued to eat the fruit! Some people who were looking at him shook their heads and said, "You're crazy, man. Those are chilies（辣椒）! You can't eat so many; they're not good for you!

I paid money for them, now I'll eat them. It's my !"
