Chapter 53: Farm Stay 3
The three girls: "I'm coming, I'm coming!" "I'm excited to try it, but the free-range chickens in this mountain are running around all day long, full of wildness, where is it so easy to catch?
The three of them were in high spirits at first, but they turned out to be discouraged, and drove the chickens away with screams and screams, but they couldn't catch a single one.
The onlookers laughed.
Lu Xiaoqing took the long pole net pocket with a smile, pointed to the outside of the chicken fence and said with a smile: "Xiaojing, take a few sisters to pick a few peaches and oranges to taste!" There are also yellow peel fruits that are ripe, see if they like to eat them. ”
"And fruit trees!" The three girls immediately became excited from their frustration again, their eyes lit up, and they happily followed Lu Xiaojing to pick fruits.
After Fu Ling helped Lu Xiaoqing catch a little rooster with bright feathers of about three catties, the two of them also went over to see them.
In fact, the fruit trees in the back mountain are not planted much, all kinds add up to more than 20 trees, except for the two pomegranates planted by Lu Xiaoqing this year, two Jinhua plums, but they are all old trees that have grown for more than ten years, in addition to the peaches, green pears, yellow peel fruits, oranges that eat fresh fruits, there are loquats, persimmons, dates, red heart plums, etc., and there is a grape in a corner.
Fresh fruit is available almost all year round.
In addition to the fruit trees, clusters of bamboos are planted along the edges, mostly nanzhu and sweet bamboo shoots.
The three girls were so excited that they praised it again and again, saying that it was really a good place, and they were reluctant to leave.
I envy Lu Xiaoqing very much, she has so much land at home, and she can grow so many good things casually.
Lu Xiaoqing smiled, able to understand their thoughts.
Everything is convenient in the city, and there is nothing you can do about being close to nature.
Living in a high-rise building, it is a matter of great pride for residents to have a little more public greenery in the community, not to mention that they can do whatever they want.
Only the rich who live in villas can have a yard of dozens of square meters, and they can grow one thing.
But in the countryside, the front and back of the house are very wide, and they can be planted casually.
The location of Lu Xiaoqing's house is even more unique, the place in front of the house and behind the house is so wide that it is impossible to say, all kinds of bamboo, fruit trees, flowers and trees, vegetables, there is no problem with how you want to grow them.
In addition, their mother and daughter are diligent and well-groomed everywhere, and when they walk in, they feel clean and refreshing, so it is no wonder that the three girls scream and envy.
In this regard, Lu Xiaojing couldn't understand it, listening to the three young ladies envy their family in various ways, she couldn't stop laughing.
For her, of course, the city is better, prosperous and lively, with a dazzling array of food, clothing, use, and play, and the transportation is also very convenient. Anyway, everything is fine, otherwise why do so many people want to go to the city with all their minds?
These three young ladies are from the city at a glance, and they can see at a glance that they are different from rural people, Lu Xiaojing is really surprised, how can they be full of envy of their own family?
The home-grown peaches are not big, but they are crisp and sweet, pure natural green and pollution-free, you can eat them by rubbing them casually, and there are yellow peel fruits, ripe yellow peel fruits are not sour at all, with a cool sweet taste, Yang Yuxi and the three of them unexpectedly like it. There are also oranges, the flesh is more fragrant than the oranges bought in the market, revealing an indescribable freshness, the flesh is firm and full, and the sweet taste is known as soon as you taste it, this is the homegrown, original orange taste, absolutely no medicine, preservatives or anything like that.
Yang Yuxi and the three of them were intoxicated and praised.
The guests like it, and the host is naturally happy. Lu Xiaojing proudly boasted to them about the loquat and bayberry in May, persimmons and dates at the end of October, and Yang Yuxi and they were even more envious.
However, when it comes to her own loquat, Lu Xiaoqing also praises it.
If there is one fruit tree planted in the village, it is the loquat tree.
There are several trees in every house, in the open space in front of and behind the house in the village, and in the vegetable garden. I don't know when this custom was spread, but when the loquat is ripe, walking through the village, you can see the stars of yellow everywhere, and the clusters of fruits are scattered like yellow pearls on the crown branches everywhere, which is particularly eye-catching.
There are many loquat trees that are very old, and there are seven or eight meters high, but the more such old trees bear fruit, the more sweet and delicious it is, and the more delicate it is.
The loquat tree, which is neither high nor low, with thick and dense branches, can be climbed by children, but this kind of old tree that has grown for more than 20 years is definitely not allowed to be climbed by children.
If you want to eat the fruits of the old tree, you have to go out with adults.
After all, such a tall tree, if it falls, it will not be as simple as crying on one foot, it will be fatal and disabled.
Perhaps the land in the village is particularly suitable for the growth of loquat trees, in short, the taste is really amazing, especially sweet. The ripe loquat has an orange-red skin with a light layer of fluff, and when you pick it, you can smell a rich aroma of loquat fruit. The skin is easily peeled off, and the flesh is also orange-red, full of moisture, smooth and delicate, and the rich sweet fruity flavor between the lips and teeth is full of bite, which hooks the taste buds and makes people can't stop at all.
Lu Xiaoqing also ate loquat many times when she was in high school and college, but to put it mildly, there is no loquat that is as delicious as the village.
Lu Xiaojing took Yang Yuxi and the others to play in this forest, and Lu Xiaoqing went back to kill chickens first.
Fu Ling told Yang Yuxi a few words, and also followed Lu Xiaoqing.
Lu Xiaoqing won't do this kind of thing like killing chickens, Lu's mother calmly raised the knife, killed the chicken and bleed, Lu Xiaoqing scalded it with hot water and plucked it.
Fu Ling had nothing to do, so she helped Lu's mother cut the long firewood she carried back into pieces one by one, and stacked them under the eaves outside the door of the stove house, which was convenient for use when the fire was burning.
Mother Lu was startled when she saw him doing this, and hurriedly wanted to stop it, "Secretary Fu, you did this work, don't move, let me come!" ”
Fu Ling smiled: "Aunt Lu is outside, I can do this job!" Aunt Lu helps me entertain guests, why am I doing such a little work? ”
Fu Ling insisted, and Lu's mother accepted it, but she just smiled and said sorry, Lu's mother couldn't help but sigh secretly, look at Secretary Fu, not only is he young and promising, he has a good appearance, and his personality is so good, hey, I have never seen such a good person, and I don't know which girl will be cheaper in the future.
Told Lu Xiaoqing to take care of the fire on the stove, and Lu's mother went to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables.
She went to the mountains this morning to dig up the bamboo shoots, and then went to the vegetable garden to pinch some vegetables and fry them.
Lu Xiaoqing had just finished the chicken, and Lu Xiaojing and the others also came down the mountain.
