Chapter 103 Help
"Yo, Xiaofeng, this is honey, right?" the old man came out of the house, saw Zhang Feng was loading honey, and asked in surprise.
"yes, wild honey just got back from the mountains. Zhang Feng was also very happy, with a smile on his face.
"That's a good thing...... I want to taste it...... "Wild honey is rare, it is generally common to raise honey, the taste of the two kinds of honey is still very different, the old man scooped a small spoonful with a spoon and poured it into his mouth, and closed his eyes in enjoyment.
"How's it going, old man?"
"Yes, it is indeed wild honey, with a rich floral fragrance. The old man nodded and then shouted happily into the house: "Old woman, come and see the nectar you have been talking about for a long time." ”
"What? where is the nectar of the flowers?" Grandma Liu hurriedly ran out, two years ago a friend knew that she had a bad stomach, so he gave her a bottle of nectar of the flowers, and then she soaked the nectar in water every day to drink, and soon cured the old problem, and the spirit was better, since then the old man knows that the nectar is a rare treasure.
"Well, it's really authentic potpourri nectar. "Grandma Liu tasted it, and was already very familiar with the taste of potpourri nectar, although potpourri nectar also has different tastes, related to the type of pollen collected by bees, but potpourri nectar has an important characteristic, that is, the fragrance is many and mixed, and there is a faint herbal smell.
Because the honey nectar is made by bees collecting the essence of flowers, it has a variety of complex fragrances, which also contain the taste of various wild Chinese herbs, so it has many benefits to the human body and has a strong tonic effect.
"Old man, Grandma Liu, I just made some crystal jelly, you can eat it with honey?" Although the flower nectar is a good thing, it is sweet, so it is just right to eat it on the crystal jelly.
"Yo! Xiaofeng also made crystal jelly?" The two old men were very surprised, such snacks have become more and more rare in the city.
"Yes, how about you taste it?" Zhang Feng served a bowl to each of them, put some dried fruit honey, and handed it to the two old men.
"Well, yes, yes! It's the taste, I haven't tasted it in years. The old man seemed to be immersed in his previous memories.
"Yes, in the past, I was poor in material things, and it was a pleasure to eat a bowl of crystal jelly on a hot day, which was very satisfying. Grandma Liu took a bite and seemed to have found the feeling in her memory, and the food was extremely sweet.
"Well, Xiao Feng's crystal jelly is very good, I'll cook you two good dishes later. The old man ate very well and said in a good mood.
"Okay, the ham meat that the old man made last time almost ate my tongue, and today I have a good mouth again!" The old man has been a chef all his life, and his cooking skills must not be said, Zhang Feng drooled when he thought about it.
"Hehe, the old man likes to cook at home every day, and you've been cooking it lately, but it's suffocating him. Grandma Liu said with a smile.
"That's right, I've been cooking for a lifetime, and I can't put it down if I want to. The old man smiled and shook his head, and before he knew it, cooking was not only his profession, but also an indispensable part of his life.
When the old man came a few days ago, he brought a lot of gifts, most of which were precious ingredients, including Caiyun ham, wild abalone with HN, and even supplements such as bird's nest shark fin.
In the evening, Zhang Feng had a rare leisure, and handed over the kitchen at home to the old man, for this kind of rural stove, the old man liked it even more, as if he had returned to the years of hard work, according to him, the dishes made by this stove were more delicious.
That night, the happy old man personally cooked and made a large table of delicious dishes, and everyone ate with relish and praise.

The next day was not yet dawn
Zhang Feng's family got up, because they were going to help the second uncle and the second uncle pick the fruit today, so everyone got up early, and then rushed to the backyard to prepare today's vegetables and wait for Xiao Wang's arrival.
"Xiao Lin, today you are at home to take care of the house, Xiao Wang is here, you will let him pull the vegetables away, right, you know the price?" After breakfast, the mother said to her daughter.
"I know, Mom!" Zhang Lin replied obediently.
"Grandpa Liu, Grandma Liu, we have something to do this morning, so I'll trouble you to take care of it at home. Zhang Feng said apologetically to the two old men.
"Hehe, it's okay, you can go ahead, it's definitely no problem for us to watch at home. The old man said with a smile.
…………
Finish breakfast
The family was divided into two groups, Zhang Feng carried the burden and walked to Uncle Erniu's orchard, while his mother and eldest sister wanted to go to the second uncle's orchard to help.
"Xiao Feng is here, hurry up and come over to help!" Uncle Er Niu was overjoyed when he saw Zhang Feng's face.
"Why are you alone, Aunt Erniu?" Zhang Feng was a little stunned when he saw that Uncle Erniu was busy alone.
"Alas, it's unfortunate that her mother's family has something to do today, so I'm the only one left!"
"Hehe, then why don't you let the little duck bring his group of little brothers over to help?" Thinking of the little duckling's group of leather monkeys, Zhang Feng said teasingly.
"I'll go, you're sincerely playing tricks on me, can those fur monkeys do things? Uncle Er Niu rolled his eyes and said angrily.
The two chatted nonsense, but the movements in their hands were not slow at all, and the red peaches were picked into the basket, because the peaches were not yet ripe on a large scale, so it only took more than an hour for the two to finish picking the ripe peaches.
"Well, it's good, it's delicious!" Zhang Feng chose a big and red peach and took a bite of it, "By the way, did Liu Yiyi say when they would come over to pull the goods?"
"Well, their car will arrive around nine o'clock. "Uncle Erniu also tasted one, and when he thought that the selling price was so high, he was very happy.
Then the two of them carried peaches and walked towards the village, there were not many peaches today, only more than a hundred catties, the burden of both of them was not full, and the two returned to the village after a few minutes.
"Uncle Erniu, I'll teach you the rest, I'll go to my second uncle's orchard and have a look. Zhang Feng put down his burden, rested for a while, and then said to Uncle Erniu.
"Okay, there you go!" There isn't much work left, just put the peaches in a plastic basket, and it won't take more than half an hour to get it done.
When Zhang Feng came to the orchard of the second uncle's house, everyone had just finished picking the peaches, "Xiaofeng, have you finished picking the peaches?"
"I'm done, but second uncle, your speed is also very fast. Zhang Feng replied that the second uncle arrived.
"Hehe, it's not everyone's help yet. ”
Because the orchards are all on the hills, there are no roads, so when the orchards are harvested, how to transport the fruits out becomes a big problem.
Fortunately, Zhang Feng's strength has increased a lot now, so he picked up one or two hundred catties of peaches, and he also felt light, walking like flying, and he didn't feel tired at all, and after five or six minutes of effort, he returned to the village with a load of peaches.
Then everyone helped pack the fruits, Zhang Feng finally felt the strength of the crowd, five or six people, more than two hundred catties of peaches in more than ten minutes into the box, waiting for the arrival of the goods.
"Xiaofeng, come over for dinner later. When the second uncle saw Zhang Feng leaving, he immediately shouted.
"Got it, I'll go home and take a shower first. Zhang Feng smiled and walked home.
………………
"Wow wow...... Wow wow......" As soon as he walked to the door of the house, Zhang Feng heard the miserable cry by the lake, Zhang Feng listened carefully, it was a little like a small stone.
"Da Mao, why did you make the little stone cry?" Zhang Feng walked over curiously, and asked when he saw Da Mao.
"No matter what happens to me, it's all the ducklings............" Then Da Mao told the truth of the matter, Zhang Feng shook his head helplessly, these leather children are really lawless.
It turned out that these guys spent five cents to buy a box of firecrackers, and while they were playing, the little duck saw a lump of cow dung on the side of the road, so he made a prank, stuffed the scrubbing cannons into the cow dung, and tricked the little stone over, saying that there was something good over there.
The little stone, for some unknown reason, just walked over curiously, boom, dung splashed, the fried small stone was covered with cow dung, the little duck saw that the joke was bigger, and immediately slipped away, leaving only the tragic little stone, standing in place and crying bitterly.
"Is this monkey really?" Zhang Feng shook his head, and then said to Da Mao: "Da Mao, hurry up and take the small stone to the river to wash it, and be careful not to go to a place where the water is deep." ”
Since it is summer, the sun in the sky has risen high, so there is no need to worry about catching a cold, seeing Da Mao walking towards the lake with a small stone, Zhang Feng shook his head with a smile and walked home.
