Chapter 135 Dragon Fruit
He Meijing helped her aunt walk on the stalk in the countryside, where there was a vegetable field, which was the vegetable garden of the Yi people, and there were several girls picking vegetables in the field.
Suddenly, I envy the environment in which they grew up, carefree, simple and simple, just like unpolluted spring water, pure, sweet, and make people feel clean when they see them.
"Mother-in-law early."
"Morning, Miss."
"Morning, everyone." He Meijing looked at these fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls and sighed at how good their youth were.
Their laughter was like bells, their faces were delicate, and they squeaked and laughed like birds when they walked together.
She spent her fifteen or sixteen years old with He Lijing, without her parents, no friends around her, and no such a good environment.
He Meijing couldn't help but take a deep breath, she liked everything here so much, if she could, she really wanted to live here.
"Rina, you can stay here for a month." My aunt could tell that she seemed to like it very much.
"Really?" He Meijing said very happily: "Thank you, aunt." ”
"Silly boy." Her aunt took her hand and looked at her distressedly.
In fact, she was born here, but after living for two years, the two sisters were taken out by the old man, who was against it at the time, but she couldn't resist the stubborn old man.
More than 20 years have passed, and she is finally back, how can this not make her happy, but she is back, but the old man is gone, and the burden in the future will all be on her alone.
Perhaps, the old man was right, let her exercise outside, and then be his successor, although the Wing people live in seclusion here, they are also able to support themselves.
"Auntie, I'm curious how the old man made me reborn?" He Meijing held her aunt's hand: "Then how many years is my lifespan." ”
"Hehe......" Aunt smiled proudly: "The old man has read a lot of ancient books, and you and Xiao Jiu are also his experiments." Let's go, I'll take you to see the dragon fruit. ”
"Dragon fruit?" How could she have forgotten about this?
"At the beginning, the old man took the Wing people to Sun Moon Island, they lived there for a while, and the old man began to study dragon fruit, so he had a bold idea, that is to transplant dragon fruit, just because the environment in which dragon fruit grows must be in a place where the four seasons are like spring, not too cold, not too hot, and bloom once in a hundred years, bear fruit once in a hundred years, until a thousand years later, this fruit will be hung all over the tree, and the dragon fruit at this time can live a long life after eating."
"Wow, that's hard!" He Meijing asked in surprise, "How old is the old man?" ”
"You really have a lot of problems with this kid?" My aunt smiled like a living Buddha and looked at the people around her with joy on her face.
"Auntie, it's not that I have a lot of problems, it's that the old man has left too many mysteries." She sighed, "If he had told me everything, maybe I would have ......"
"It's not your fault." My aunt was afraid that she would be too sad and sad, so she patted the hand on her arm: "The old man has already calculated that he is leaving, and it is not your fault!" ”
He Meijing knew that this was her aunt's words to comfort her, she just sighed softly and looked at the trees in the distance, which seemed to be still hanging with red fruits.
My aunt, though she looked old, was not slow on her feet, and they walked for a while, and finally stopped in front of a grove, which was very short, but the stem was very thick, a bit like a banyan tree, and its branches were like mushrooms.
They walked in and saw that there were still people tidying up inside, the smallest tree also needed two people to hold, the thickest tree may have to be held by several people, but this leaf was quite strange, she picked up a leaf on the ground and put it on the palm of her hand, it was actually about the same shape as a human palm, this leaf was thick and soft to the touch.
"Miss, eat dragon fruit." An eighteen-year-old beautiful girl picked three dragon fruits and sent them over.
"Thank you." He Meijing took it and handed one to her aunt, she took the other two dragon fruits and looked at them carefully, the size was about the same as apricots, red and red like blood.
She took a bite gently, sweet, fragrant, slightly bitter, no core, basically two bites can be eaten, the taste is something she has never tasted.
"Is it delicious?" My aunt ate one and looked at the person who had already eaten two.
"It's delicious." He Meijing nodded, feeling a little worried.
"This dragon fruit, the average person can only eat two to three pieces at a time in a year, if someone is sick, they can also eat two, you can't eat more." The aunt looked at her and smiled.
"What happens if you eat more?" Curious, she looked up at the fruit-bearing tree on it.
"It will cause blood vessels to flow backwards, and it will explode and die."
Auntie's words didn't scare her, because just the two dragon fruits she ate just now, she felt that there was a breath flowing in her body, and if she ate more, this breath would flip, that is, the blood vessels would flow backwards?
Although there are not too many fruits on the tree, there are hundreds of them by visual inspection, and they will not fall and break if they are left for a long time and ripe. That's a waste.
"The fruit ripens for between ten and fifteen years, and even if it does, it will not fall." The aunt guessed with a puzzled expression.
"Oh." He Meijing nodded: "The ginseng fruit that Tang Seng eats still has to bloom every three thousand years, bear fruit every three thousand years, and ripen for another three thousand years, and it can only be eaten after 10,000 years." ”
"Poof......" Aunt smiled when she heard her words: "The one you said is the story in Journey to the West, it's not real, those are fictional things." ”
"Auntie, do you also know Journey to the West?" He Meijing looked at her aunt in surprise, this was a place that was not connected to the outside world.
"Yes, of course I do." My aunt smiled: "The old man often brings outside film and television here, although he has no personal experience, but he also knows a lot." ”
"Oh!" He Meijing also saw the children in class today, although reading is the beginning of human beings and their nature is good, but Mr. Teaching must be extraordinary.
The old man has really done a lot of things for the Yi people, neither derailing from modern life, nor leaving behind the fine traditions of the past, which is the most important thing.
Modern people, on the other hand, have lost many of the virtues of the past, and have developed to the present day, and they know how to make money from a young age, stealing, robbing, touching, these bad behaviors.
Adults are busy with work all day long, fighting hard for life, but neglecting the education of children, making children selfish, patent, especially children who are immersed in games, China's next generation is worrying!
It is said that people die for money, and birds die for food, but where there are people, there will be wars without gunpowder, which is reflected from the life of modern people, and there is no simplicity, kindness, and cleanliness of the people here......
