Chapter 43: The Blossoming Tree

A good night.

The next morning, as soon as the white of the fish belly was revealed, Aina woke up from her sleep, stretched her waist greatly, and was full of energy; The quilt is warm and warm, but not indulgent.

She sat up and got dressed.

It was still early, and she had stretched her muscles, and she was ready to go out and have a look, maybe she should run a lap or two, and then take a serious look at the early morning in this beautiful and strange place.

A rare restful sleep - she felt that this place had a unique atmosphere, which made her feel at ease and comfortable, remove all anxiety and annoyance, and completely clear and immersed her mind!

Aina pushed open the door, greeted the cold morning breath, walked out, walked out to the spacious corridor outside, looked at the clear lake, looked at the green mountains, and watched the mountains full of mountains reflecting the wanton opening of the mountains, occasionally dotted with purple red, pink and white, pure white, light yellow, it is the breath of spring!

She stretched out her hands, opened her embrace, breathed deeply, exhaled a breath of turbidity, and embraced everything that was natural! It's like returning to your mother's arms.

At this time, a fresh breeze came in, bringing a refreshing sweet fragrance.

This fragrance does not have the richness of cinnamon and jasmine, the intoxication of roses and the lightness of chrysanthemums, nor the secluded and self-appreciating orchids, clear and refreshing, with a sweet breath, slowly blowing into her heart.

Even if it doesn't contain syrup in your mouth, it's sweet.

She followed the scent and looked at it.

I was seeing dozens of acres of land a little farther away, separated by a forest, full of white, pure and quiet, quiet, it seemed to see the sweetness of sugar, not only made her think of the sweet dimples on the mouth of the lovely little niece at home far away.

"What's that?!" Aina's head was turning around with the only few white flowers and trees, but after thinking about it for a long time, there was no flower that could match the color and fragrance of the flowers in front of her.

She took a deep breath, inhaled all the sweet floral flavors into her spleen and lungs, chewed slowly, and savored them carefully. She closed her eyes.

"It's a familiar feeling, like I've smelled it somewhere." She thought to herself.

A flash of inspiration suddenly burst out of his mind.

"Grape blossoms?" She suddenly remembered that Zhou Yi said that this piece is planted with grapes.

"The scent is a bit similar, but sweeter than the scent of grape blossoms she's familiar with......" Aina thought to herself.

She had seen vines with white flowers, but the flowers were small, hidden under the green leaves, and the flowering period was so short that if it were not for the coincidence that she could smell the sweetness of the flowers, and if she looked carefully, she would not see the bunches of flowers on the vines.

Never before have the grapes been so white, so big, and so enthusiastic, like white clouds rising from among the vines. White and holy, but sweet in taste, more like a little girl next door with a lollipop and a white dress.

She looked at the greenery of the tree, at the white flowers on it, and thought to herself, "What a strange new variety of grape is hidden in this ancient country, in this great mountain!" ”

Aina couldn't wait to run downstairs, all the way to the white vines, to the vines, to the flowers, feeling the body covered with sweetness, and the tips of her lips began to condense a trace of sweetness.

She looked at the trees carefully.

She found that it was not entirely accurate to say that these were trees, that they were vines, but that they were naturally tied up, and that the strong trunks stood up like trees, supporting the canopy of the vine.

The canopies, sprinkled on the tops of the branches, drooped diagonally, and then grew grape leaves, bunches of grape flowers......

Smelling the flowers, Aina could almost smell the sweetness of the grapes in the summer.

She could finally be sure: this is indeed the "vine"! It's like last night's "week" said.

"Aina, wake up so early? What about Andrew? Zhou Yi had already crossed the wooden bridge on the water from the other side of the lake and came back from a lap.

"Good morning, Zhou!" She looked at the white vines and said with a smile, "I didn't expect there to be a vine - this is a new variety of grape plant!" Zhou, is this something you bred? ”

"It should be said that it was I who stumbled upon his value."

"Either way, it's yours, isn't it? Perhaps, how about it have a name, 'The Vine of Zhou'? Aina grew her mouth, the corners of her mouth turned up, and she gestured and said loudly in English with a certain accent and rhyme.

"You're right!" Zhou Yi listened to Aina's words and smiled, "I decided, it's called 'Zhou Grapevine'!" ”

"Oh - a great discovery of a species, I think, you must be a great botanist, or about to become a great botanist!" Aina exaggeratedly and laughed out loud - even she herself was conquered by her strange imagination.

She took another deep breath, inhaled the fragrance and sweetness of her belly, and said involuntarily, "I think they will bear sweet fruit, don't they?" Week. ”

"Of course! If I can, when the grapes are ripe, maybe I can mail you some of the past! Zhou Yi said.

"Zhou, isn't this the grape for winemaking?" Aina looked at Zhou Yi strangely and said. As far as she knows, the grapes used to make wine have small fruits, large seeds and thick skin, and too little and sweet flesh, which are not suitable for direct consumption except for winemaking.

"It's grapes that can be used to make wine, and as wine you drink, it's made from these grapes." Zhou Yi affirmed.

"However, it is a little thicker than the average grape flesh, and it is very juicy and tastes good. In our case, one kilogram of such grapes can be sold for 200RMB. ”

"Oh my God, almost thirty euro a kilogram of grapes - Zhou, maybe you made a mistake to make wine from these grapes! You know, thirty euros is enough to buy a nice bottle of wine in France! ”

Although Zhou Yi's wines gave her some novel experiences, as a wine taster, from a strict perspective, Zhou Yi's wines may not be able to sell at a good price: first, the taste is difficult to accept by the public; Second, as a Chinese wine, it lacks a wide enough market, history and cultural heritage - think of the wineries in the West that have been in business for hundreds or thousands of years!

Zhou Yi shook his head and did not speak.

In his opinion, the bottles of wine he took out were too green; And he believes that once these wines are ripe, they will reveal an amazing charm and enchant everyone!

As for what Aina said yesterday, these wines have no aging value, and he doesn't approve of it. The ageing of wine, in his opinion, is not entirely about tannins, there are always some strange undiscovered substances that guide the process.

The wine hidden in his space, which can only be enjoyed by him and a very small number of people, is the best proof of this!

As for the culture and history that Aina thinks, as an ultra-amateur of wine, Zhou Yi is far from thinking so deeply.

At this time, Andrew also came out of the house.

He was also attracted by the pure white sea of flowers and the scent of flowers.

"Zhou, Aina! You're early! ”

"But can anyone tell me what kind of flower this big white one is? It reminds me of honey, no, grape juice with honey! ”

"I told you yesterday, vines?"

"Vines?"

Andrew looked at the vine tree seriously, looked at the green leaves that stretched out, looked at the bouquet of flowers, and finally admitted: "Well, I know, there are always some inexplicable things in the world that make people so incredible!" ”

"I think that Napoleon can be homosexual, what else in the world is impossible?" He made a final cover for his ignorance.

"Napoleon was homosexual?" Aina questioned. Since last night's incident, she hasn't looked at Andrew well.

"If it weren't for homosexuality, how could Napoleon legally grant homosexuality freedom?"

Andrew looked at Aina's furrowed brow and remembered the unpleasant events of last night. He didn't want to be the victim of this inexplicable woman's madness again, so he quickly explained: "Aina, I've just heard from people......"

Aina turned her head away from Andrew.

Her attention was drawn to a swarm of bees fluttering among the grape blossoms.

"Zhou, is this a bee? Such a big, beautiful and strange bee, why have I never seen it? Aina looked at the bee lying on the white flower in front of her, sucking the nectar, at its body twice as large as the average bee, at the bright yellow and extremely transparent amber-like body, like a delicate crystal carved by the most elaborate artist.

"Perhaps."

"I can hardly find anyone else who can pollinate this vineyard other than them." Zhou Yi said.

It was only then that Aina discovered that in this spring weather, there were almost no other insects to be found in this fragrant vineyard except for this big bee.

Of course, it's not that there isn't, but it's hard to see.

Now, obviously, this is not the time for pesticides to make a big splash in the vineyard; Moreover, the effect of pesticides will not be so selective and have such a powerful effect.

Her mind was full of questions, but this time, she was ready to look for it herself.

Soon, without much effort on her search, a tall, blue-green plant with few leaves and small crimson pockets fell into her eyes.

In the midst of the fruit groves, one of these plants grows every once in a while.

She saw countless insects fly from the sky into the plant's crimson pocket, and then disappear.

"Cordyceps catcher! Oh, my God! How did such a tall Cordyceps grow? I thought that there was such a thing only in the depths of the most mysterious rainforest. Aina cried out as she covered her mouth.

"They were supposed to grow in the rainforest, and I transplanted them here, and then they had some wonderful mutations."

"Now I'm convinced that you're a botanist!" Aina affirmed. She looked at the bees flying among the flowers and plants, and added, "Perhaps, a zoologist." For some reason, she thought of the three dogs of Zhou Yi's family full of wisdom again.

……

For more than ten days, in the enjoyment of Aina and Andrew, it was like the water in Dongtian Lake, flowing with the waterfall, and it passed quickly.

They enjoyed living in Zhou Yi's house very much, enjoying a variety of delicacies every day, enjoying Asian carp that they had almost never eaten before, eating all kinds of strange Chinese snacks, and interesting foods such as smoked small fish and smoked bacon; From digging bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest, to picking flowers and picnicking in the mountains, to hunting in caves and fishing on calm lakes – the two felt that it was more comfortable than any place they had ever been before.

Zhou Yi is very curious about the two foreign friends, their experiences, and stories, and the two of them are constantly satisfying Zhou Yi's curiosity, harmonizing with each other, and understanding each other and each other's culture......

Parting, finally irrepressible arrival, even if there is more reluctance!

At the insistence of the two, they paid the money and took away a large number of Dongtian's specialties and mountain objects - Zhou Yi almost used two cars to send the two and the goods they purchased away.

Aina hugged the golden honey in her hand and waved goodbye to Zhou Yi.

"Goodbye, Zhou, my friend!! I will come back! Andrew shouted loudly, attracting everyone's attention, and then was pulled by Aina and walked into the air station.

Andrew wouldn't have thought that he would say, "I'll be back!" This sentence will come true so quickly. At that time, his identity was no longer just a slightly special tourist and a friend of Zhou Yi......
