Chapter 272: Picking Plums

While chatting, he walked towards Lao Wang's house.

Wang Siqi turned his head and saw the flowers on the mountain, and immediately shouted in surprise: "Mom, there are so many flowers, so beautiful and beautiful." ”

Children are easily excited when they see anything.

The trees on the mountain are very mixed, there are many black locusts, and there are many others, but spring and summer are the time when the flowers are in full bloom, and in addition to the locust flowers, there are other ones that are in bloom and colorful.

Spring begins with peach blossoms, and continues to bloom with apricot blossoms, plum blossoms, pear blossoms, and some unknown wildflowers. The butterflies are gone, but the bees are still busy, and they can't finish collecting honey.

This year, it seems that because of the fat chicken manure on the mountain, the trees are growing very well and the flowers are blooming very much, and now they are still far away, and they can smell the flowers.

Not to mention Zhou Ying, a person who grew up here, even Jiang Xiaoxuan was aware of it, at this time last year, she came here, and there were indeed all kinds of flowers here at that time, and she also practiced with aerial photography.

This year's flowers are indeed more than last year's.

The locust tree is still very beautiful in flowering, a whole tree hangs countless white bunches of flowers, it looks like a huge white bouquet from a distance, and if several locust tree flowers happen to be connected, it is simply like a cloud of flowers.

There are other unknown trees that are also struggling to bloom.

In fact, these alone can become a landscape.

If you are not very busy, strolling through the village, admiring the acacia flowers, smelling the fragrance of flowers, this slow-paced life is actually very good.

In the past, when the conditions were not good, people would often go to get the acacia flowers back to eat, and how many lives were saved.

The locust tree is divided into acacia, national acacia and red locust.

Acacia and red locust are separated in April and May, acacia can also be eaten, it is white, red locust cannot be eaten, the flowers are red, a bit poisonous, and can only be used for ornamental and medicinal purposes.

The national acacia is later, it is blooming in July and August, the flowers are a little yellow, and they are also very fragrant, but they can't be eaten, so they can only be concocted into the medicine to make tea.

The acacia flowers that bloom in April and May are very fragrant, and they are delicious, wrapped in batter, wrapped in egg liquid outside, fried in an oil pan, sprinkled with salt and seasonings, very fragrant, fragrant and crispy.

Otherwise, it is steamed in a pot, or scalded in boiling water and then cold, which is very delicious.

This kind of seasonal goods can't be eaten after the season.

There are also people in the online store who sell this, several dollars a catty, and they also put ice packs to keep them fresh when they go to the express delivery.

However, other people's locust forests may be specially planted, and it is worth doing it if they are large. That's all they have here, and it's not convenient to ship, and it's not enough to advertise it alone.

If you don't advertise, it's completely impossible to be noticed by buyers, and then there will be no business.

Therefore, these locust trees and flowers can also bloom here, and tourists who come from time to time can also enjoy them.

Zhou Ying said: "Let's go pick some back in a while, shall we? ”

This tea is good for drinking, clearing heat and reducing fire, and it is easy to get hot and bubbly in autumn, so it is just right to drink some of this tea.

Zhou Heng said: "What's the problem with that, I'll pick up some more for you to bring back later." ”

While talking, when I arrived at the backyard of Lao Wang's house, three crooked-necked plum trees were at the door of the backyard, and the plums on them had a lot of fruits, green and green, which was very attractive.

Now that there is no one at home, Zhou Heng can just pick plums by himself.

The tree is a bit tall, and the places that can be picked at the bottom have been picked by the children, and there are many more in the high places, and some of them are cracked, and they are sweet to look at.

Zhou Heng thought that he had to climb a tree, and it was better to have a pole, so it would be easier to get it.

I should have brought the pole from home. He went into the courtyard of Lao Wang's house to see if there was anything in his house.

Sure enough, there really is - presumably their family still spent a lot of brains for this plum.

There is a pole, and the top is tied with half of the bottle of Nongfu Spring, and the end of the cut is made an opening, Zhou Heng picked it up and compared it, and felt that the design was good.

The opening is not big, just enough to jam a plum, and with a little force, you can cut the plum and fall right into the bottle, so that it will not fall and break.

The master is in the folk.

Zhou Heng got this weapon and walked out, as if he had found his golden hoop stick from the Dragon King of the East China Sea.

Zhou Ying held the basket for him and laughed at him: "Boss Zhou, how old are you?

Even Wang Siqi couldn't stop laughing.

Zhou Heng said: "The artifact is in hand, and I have it in the world." Today you just have to wait and see how fast I am. ”

The plum trees are very tall, not the size of a plum picking garden, the trees have not been dwarfed, they are not a new variety of abundant crops, they are not as dense as they are, but there are still a lot of them.

Therefore, this kind of cultivation cannot be done on a large scale. People don't need to go to the tree for picking, and the amount is large, and one tree is said to produce more than 500 catties.

At that scale, three trees here would produce more than 1,000 catties, but unfortunately there are none.

If the output can't be reached, the price can't be cheap, how can you do it better than others.

Zhou Hengsan jumped onto the courtyard wall in twos, and then went up the tree and sat down on a relatively thick branch that could bear his weight.

This action, this skill, Wang Siqi was stunned below, and kept applauding him: "Uncle is amazing! Uncle is amazing!"

It is estimated that this time, her uncle has become her idol.

Zhou Ying smiled: "Your uncle is a monkey, so it's easy to go up the tree." ”

Wang Siqi didn't believe it: "Mom, you lied to people, uncle didn't change from a monkey." ”

Zhou Ying and Jiang Xiaoxuan both laughed.

Jiang Xiaoxuan was holding a camera to shoot, and when she saw Zhou Heng jumping up the courtyard wall and going up the tree in two steps, she felt that this guy was really powerful.

On the lush plum tree, Zhou Heng was wearing a white T-shirt, just sitting on the branch, surrounded by branches and leaves, looking at it with a feeling of being a master outside the world.

So, she took a few steps back and took a long shot, placing the plum tree in the middle of the whole picture, which has a sense of grandeur and insignificance, which is very meaningful.

Life really needs to have a pair of eyes to find beauty.

Ordinary people shoot this picture, it is estimated that they are shooting at people, and they are done with fruits, and the picture has no style, and it cannot convey emotions outside the picture.

That's why it's important to bring a good photographer.

Jiang Xiaoxuan took a good shot, and also picked up the aerial photography drone to come to a sky perspective.

Even if she comes to someone else's house to pick some plums, she has to shoot a blockbuster style.

Zhou Heng sat on the tree, it was really like a fish in water, and all around him were ripe or green plums, for him to pick.

There are a lot of ripe ones, so I picked one directly, wiped it with my hand, put it in my mouth and took a bite, it was crunchy, sour and sweet, with a fragrance.

It's so delicious.

Wang Siqi looked at his eating appearance and drooled greedily.

Zhou Heng, who was sitting on it, occasionally lowered his head, saw it, and then remembered her, so he picked two more familiar ones, threw them to Zhou Ying, and said, "Sister, take it." ”

threw them one by one, Zhou Ying could still catch them, and then the mother and daughter were one by one.

Wang Siqi didn't need to wait for someone to tell him, he rubbed it twice on his clothes and stuffed it into his mouth.

Before Zhou Ying could say anything, there was already a mark on the clothes, and children's clothes were like this, no matter what she worn, she would be like a rag.

She took a piece of paper out of her pocket and said, "Just use this to wipe it again, don't get your clothes dirty." ”

Wang Siqi took a bite and immediately said, "Mom, it's so sweet!"

"Is mommy so sweet?"

"Hehehe...... What I'm saying is, Mom, plums are so sweet. ”

Zhou Ying tasted it herself, but her brows furrowed, and she said, "Why am I so sour?"

Wang Siqi laughed.

Zhou Heng is still struggling on the tree, saying that this special pole is really an artifact, where it is out of reach, it is just right to use this, one poke is one, and it will not fall to the ground.

After a while, the bottom of the basket was made.

He sat on the tree and moved around, and the canopy sounded in the ground, and from time to time one fell one by one.

Wang Siqi ran over to pick it up, and was happily saying to Zhou Ying: "Mom, look, I picked up such a big ......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw that the reverse side was empty, and he immediately wondered, how could this be? Who ate it?

Looking at her puzzled look, Zhou Ying told her: "This was eaten by a finch, and it died when it was empty, and when my uncle shook it, the fruit fell." ”

Wang Siqi asked, "What finch?"

"There are all kinds of birds, and there are many species of birds here, and they all like to eat fruit. Zhou Ying said.

Some birds eat the fruit, this one pecks, that one bites, not to mention eating one until they are full, but the skin is rotten when it bites open, or it is done.

If you eat it all seriously, how can it eat so much!

It's a shame.

However, the old Wang family can sweep them all up and feed them to the chickens.

Zhou Heng was busy on it for a while, and the basket was almost full, so he stopped, and this is the end of today.

This big basket is a few pounds bigger, and the harvest is not small.

Hehe, it's all here, so of course you have to make a good one.

After Zhou Ying helped him catch the basket, he slowly slid down from the tree.

Jiang Xiaoxuan took one from the basket, and like them, rubbed it in her hand and put it in her mouth to eat.

Zhou Heng found her a cracked one and said: "This is sweet, you won't choose, like this color, it's ripe, and it won't be sour." ”

Jiang Xiaoxuan said: "I'm not afraid of acid. ”

Zhou Ying smiled: "Yes, pregnant women are not afraid of acid, what the hell are you doing." ”

Zhou Heng also remembered that last year, Jiang Xiaoxuan was able to eat wild lemons directly, and she said that she was not afraid of acid. That's still the old days.

Not to mention now.

The group carried the harvested plums, ate them while walking, and walked back, Jiang Xiaoxuan suddenly remembered, so she reminded: "Sister, didn't you just say that you wanted to pick some acacia flowers and go back to fry tea?"
