Chapter 221: Warm and Lively
It didn't take long for Li Xin and the others to arrive at the gate of Zhuangzi.
When the carriage entered Zhuangzi, Li Xin lifted the curtain and looked outside. The potatoes were harvested as early as late March, and it didn't take much time to dig up the potatoes. Rice has been planted in the fields where potatoes have been dug up, and at this time, the rice is already green.
There are also a lot of ducks in the seedling field, swimming around, a pleasant and leisurely. There were no pesticides in this era, so it was not bad to have some ducks in the field, so that the ducks could eat all kinds of small insects in the field. Some of the wild grass ducks in the field also like to eat.
The seeds of rice were propagated from those high-yield rice varieties at the beginning, and last year I planted a few acres and tried it, and the yield was really good. Therefore, this year, more than 100 acres of fields where potatoes are planted have been planted with rice. Although cash crops are good, rice is the staple food of southerners, and more rice should be grown.
If you don't sell what you produce, you just keep it at home to eat, which also saves money to buy grain. In the other fields, after the rape was harvested, corn was also planted.
Tomatoes and peppers are also in abundance, and they are very fruitful, so it's a delight to look at!
It's really nice to have a sense of life everywhere.
"Sister, let's go pick the fruit later! I also want to go to the orchard to play. Yue Ting smiled and hugged Li Xin's arm, and shook it around.
"Okay, my bones are going to be scattered by you, go if you want! It's rare to come back once. Let's pick some fruit and go back to your eldest brother and second brother to eat. Li Xin poked Yueting's forehead.
"Okay!" Yue Ting finally laughed happily, revealing two rows of little white teeth.
After entering Zhuangzi, I still went to the house first. And when they had rested for a while in the house, they took the baskets and baskets on their backs, and went to the orchard. Dozens of acres of orchards are still amazing to look at, and you can see large areas of green trees from a distance.
After entering the orchard, everyone took a good look at the fruit trees in the orchard. There are still many types of fruit trees, and there are many fruits that ripen at this time.
There are still some people in the orchard who are picking fruit, and when the fruit is ripe, it must be picked quickly, otherwise it will deteriorate quickly. Therefore, a lot of fruits have to be picked and sold every day, and there are many horse-drawn carriages parked at the entrance of the Zhuangzi to buy fruits.
Seeing people, Li Xin also greeted everyone with a smile. In the end, it is an orchard, and the sweet and silky fragrance of ripe fruit is everywhere, which is very attractive.
The aroma of the fruit is always appetizing, and when you smell it, you want to taste the taste of the fruit.
Li Xin looked at it, and as long as it was a ripe fruit, he picked some of everything. In general, I picked a lot of them, took them back, and kept some to eat at home, and people who knew each other also wanted to give some. Li Xin, Yuexiang and Yueting are all able to climb trees, and children who grow up in the countryside, in fact, there are few people who can't climb trees, mainly to see if they can climb well.
Some people are so bold that they don't have many branches to climb on it. In his previous life, Li Xin was a person who was very good at climbing trees, and when he was young, he always liked to wander around in the forest, picking all kinds of wild fruits, picking all kinds of edible wildflowers, and always having fun. Even my grandmother always said that she was like a monkey, she just liked to run into the mountains and forests, and she never knew what to be afraid of.
And Yuexiang, when she was in the village before, she didn't have anything to eat, so she naturally had to pick all kinds of wild fruits in the forest to eat. Therefore, climbing trees is also very good, and Yuexiang is relatively stable, and climbing trees is also very stable. However, Yuexiang will not be able to do it, so she still finds a fruit tree that is easier to climb.
And Yueting is also a skin monkey, and she is still very good at climbing trees. However, Li Xin was still very worried about climbing trees for Yueting, and only let Yueting climb a tree that was shorter and had more branches.
Caiyun and they can't climb trees, so they wait for the fruit to come down under the tree.
Seeing that they had picked enough fruit, they left the orchard first.
"There's really a lot of fruit in my cousin's house!" Ling Feifei grinned and nibbled on a peach.
"There are still more ripe fruits now, if you like to eat fruits, we will come to Zhuangzi to live for a few days, and you can eat fruits well."
After that, the group did not stay in the Zhuangzi for a long time, put all the fruits in the carriage, brought some vegetables and vegetables, and went to Sanshi Town. Yueting has been smiling and eating fresh fruits, very happy. The freshly picked fruit is still delicious and fresh. Li Xin saw that there was a lychee plant, and there were already ripe fruits, so he also picked some.
Although the skin of the lychee is still a little green and not red, the flesh inside is ripe.
In the south, lychees are not rare, but the price is still more expensive than ordinary fruits, so it is not a fruit that ordinary people can always enjoy. However, compared to the rarity in the north, lychees are quite common in the south. If you transport lychees to the north, then it will become a luxury.
Peel off the skin, inside is the white and tender lychee meat, take a bite, very sweet. Lychees are really delicious! No wonder Yang Guifei wanted people to send lychees thousands of miles back then, which was such a luxury. In the north, it's good to be able to eat a dried lychee, and it's really too luxurious to eat fresh lychee.
When Wenbo and Wen Hao came home from school, they were very happy to know that Li Xin and others had returned. As soon as he heard this, Wen Hao ran to the backyard.
When I saw Wen Hao, Li Xin was sitting under the vine trellis. At this time, the vine flowers have already withered, but they have produced pods. Although it is not as gorgeous as the flowers, there are a lot of pods hanging on it, and it is still a scenery that can be seen.
"Sister, you're back. My eldest brother and I are still wondering when you will be back! Wen Hao happily sat down beside Li Xin.
"I'm back when I'm busy, and I haven't seen you for a few days, so I'm not relieved to be able to leave you! It's just that Yipinzhai only opened before, so I can't leave until the business stabilizes. Li Xin touched Wen Hao's head, "Are you still good these days?" ”
"Eldest sister, I'm so old, I'll naturally be very well-behaved, so eldest sister doesn't have to worry about it."
"You! How old is that! Just say something like this to me. When you really grow up and start a family, I really don't have to worry about it. Li Xin smiled. She really doesn't know if she will live in this world for the rest of her life, but hopefully, she can watch Wenbo get married and start a business, and each of them will be independent!
She really cherishes her current days, and hopes to be able to grow far away!
"Eldest sister, is Yipinzhai's business okay now? Will the eldest sister make some new food again? Wen Hao looked like he was about to drool.
"Yipinzhai's business is not bad, as for the new food, if you have been obedient, you will naturally have food. By the way, in the days when I'm away, you haven't put down your hard work, have you? But you have to practice every day, and once you slack off, you can't learn well. Now, if you really want to learn martial arts, you have to lay a good foundation. ”
"I've been practicing every day of the week, big sister, I won't be much tougher." Wen Hao stood up and turned around in front of Li Xin.
"Okay, the eldest sister knows that you are obedient. This kind of thing! You don't need to be supervised, you still have to rely on your own self-awareness. ”
"It's almost time to eat, big sister, we might as well go to the kitchen!" Wen Hao smiled and pulled Li Xin to the front yard. It was a little late for school to end in the academy, so when they came back, it was almost time for dinner.
When they arrived in the kitchen, everyone was already there, and Sister-in-law Wu had already cooked.
"Big sister." Wenbo shouted with a smile.
Li Xin smiled and patted Wenbo's shoulder, and sat down. Sister-in-law Wu also hurriedly brought the meal, and everyone began to eat dinner. Nowadays, there are many people in the house, and even the meals are very lively. Speaking of which, it's better to have more people in the house, and even the meals are more lively!
Moreover, the more people eat, the more fragrant it will be!
After dinner, everyone enjoyed the cool in the courtyard of the backyard. At this time, the lotus flowers in the lotus pond bloom just right, and they bloom beautifully. The air seems to be filled with a light fragrance of lotus flowers, which is very faint and faint, faint, with a very hazy beauty.
"Everyone's snack! This is what we made ourselves! Yueting nibbled on the dim sum in her hand, and pointed to the dim sum on the stone table to signal everyone to eat. There is a special dim sum chef in Yipinzhai, but he can make all kinds of dim sum, and the taste is also very delicious.
"The dim sum chef of Yipinzhai is really good!" Wenbo tasted it and said.
"It's good that you guys think it's good, but when I came back this time, I brought a lot of snacks back. It's not easy to bring other food, so you can only bring some snacks. Li Xin said with a smile. She also took a piece of dim sum and ate it, such a thing as dim sum, although there are only so many styles, and it is not easy to innovate. However, depending on the person who makes it, the taste of the product will also be different.
"Yipinzhai's food is indeed good, come to think of it, when the reputation spreads, the business will get better and better." Wenbo also laughed. It is natural to be happy that your own store can do well. "By the way, eldest sister, the village chief and a few villagers sent a lot of vermicelli to the family, and the village chief also asked the eldest sister when she would come back, mainly because she didn't know how to eat vermicelli and how to sell it!"
"Last time, I was only busy teaching everyone how to make zuò vermicelli, and I forgot to tell everyone how to eat it." Li Xin smiled, she really forgot about this matter! The main thing is that I didn't react for a while, because in my previous life, this was something that almost everyone knew. R1152
