Chapter Eighty-Three: Vine Strawberry

I still have to work hard, thinking about how to make it grow faster, so that pregnant women can eat it in their mouths as soon as possible, but it is impossible for a family to eat strawberries with a circumference of an acre of land, and the final outcome is to be sold by Jiang Yuheng when they can't finish eating.

Under her vigorous efforts and watering with spiritual spring water, in half a month, the strawberry grew more than a foot high, climbed up along the adobe wall, and the thorns growing on the main trunk penetrated deep into the ground, and the roots continued to extend downward, forming a well-developed root system.

One of the good things about this plant is that it first fixes itself, and then spreads its branches and leaves, so it has been taking root and laying solid in the early stage, and the roots continue to grow downward, and the vine keeps sticking out of its thorns into the mud wall, firmly tying itself to it.

It's like having a spirit, feeling safe, and that's when you start to grow again!

The family is interested in what she grows, and they will go around every day, but Nizi just doesn't say what it is, so they can't scratch their hearts and lungs all day long, the more mysterious the more attractive.

By the middle of April, it was almost to the top of the wall, the four walls were all green, the brake was beautiful, a white white bud was hidden inside, the wind blew, sometimes hidden, just like the stars in the sky, still blinking.

When there is nothing to do, the family will stop and take a few looks, feeling that looking like this will relieve fatigue and relax the body and mind.

Slowly, the flowers bloomed, and thanked, growing a small red fruit, which seemed to have small thorns on it, soft and not prickly, at this time, the school was on holiday, and the family began to get busy.

The spring harvest is coming, the ears of wheat in the field have turned golden, and taxes will be collected this year, but every household has grain in stock, and no one is worried about the lack of food to eat.

The other women were at home to collect wheat and dry it, while the men drove to the fields to harvest it, transported it home one by one, unloaded it and then went back, and finally took all the wheat back to the house, and got the pear field, fertilized it, and turned it deeper.

Plant another crop of corn, water it again, weed it every once in a while, and it's OK, and when they are all busy, they find that the walls around the house are full of red fruits.

"Oh, what's this called, just look at it, I want to eat it when I look at it,"

"I heard from the shop that sells seeds, this is the fruit of the south, I bought some, but I didn't expect it to be planted," Nizi found a pot for washing vegetables, picked more than half of the pot in one go, and washed it with water, "Come, sit down and taste it"

There was a table in the courtyard, and a family of nine sat together, carefully stretched out their hands, picked them up, and looked carefully in front of them, "Why do you touch its skin so tender, and it smells good."

"Then eat," Nizi took a bite of it, "Well, it's not bad, sweet, with a sour head, my sister-in-law must love to eat," after speaking, she glanced at her somewhat protruding belly, and then ate it by herself.

Whoever eats the first bite is pleasantly surprised, "It's so sweet," especially Jiang Yuheng, "Why is this so delicious?" Even I, a man who doesn't eat fruits, love to eat it, we don't sell this in the north, I haven't even seen it."

"You don't see that its skin is very tender and difficult to transport, if there is, it would be strange,"

"There are a lot of these four walls, we can't eat so much at home, these can be picked in front of us, or, tomorrow I will pick some and take them to the county town to sell?"

"Dad, this is a delicate fruit, you can't drive fast, you can't bump it, otherwise it will rot soon, if you want to sell it, you have to tell people clearly, you have to eat it when you buy it, you can't put it"

"Boom, how much does it cost to sell for a pound?"

"Two or two, if you go to Fucheng, five or two, by the way, you have to make some wooden boxes, I will draw a pattern for you, make it to transport it, I heard that this thing can grow all the time, and in winter to protect the roots, it can bear fruit every year, just like a fruit tree"

"Oh, that's great, now our family can have another income"

Li Shi looked at him with joy and his eyes were almost out of sight, thinking about his daughter-in-law's body, "Don't pick them all, leave some for Yu'e"

Nizi frowned, "I planted it for everyone to eat, and I didn't even have a fruit at home in the summer, so I knew how to sell it for money."

"Don't worry, there's something for you"

"It's necessary, what you can't eat at home, and then sell the rest, don't keep thinking about selling for money, it's really," she hurriedly ate a few more, her face was depressed, and the family was immediately amused, Jiang Yu hurriedly mended the knife:

"It's not good for my father, I will go out to sell vegetables in the future, and when I see fruit, I will buy some and come back, so that our little pigs can eat more"

"Don't blame your father, we can't get enough crops in the north of us, who will plant fruit trees, there are in the mountains, but there are wild beasts there, and they will die if they go, who will risk their lives not to get a few fruits?"

"Yes, Nizi, big families eat a fruit, and they also eat merchants from the south, and every family here grows vegetables to eat when the weather is warm, and there is no fruit."

"It's nothing, it's lazy, do you see, who used to grow vegetables and sell them? Isn't it a seed now? In the past, the yard of everyone's house was idle, and if you planted one or two fruit trees and didn't eat them, you could sell them for money every year."

"Hehe, who said that you are lazy, your father and I are very diligent, but the people here are honest, not stupid, they want to farm and eat food with a tendon"

Nizi doesn't want to say anything, stupid is stupid, and makes excuses, doesn't like to use her brain, wants to watch and guard the ground, guard the mountain, don't think about it, hum!

Chang lowered her head and ate strawberries, she didn't know what she was thinking, her face was not as happy as others, and Yun Ni, who was as wise as a torch, could see what she was thinking at a glance, just now she spoke, and this sister-in-law heard it in her heart.

To talk about getting along during this time, Nizi's impression of her is still above the average, which is already rare, to talk about shortcomings, she always feels that Chang's heart and eyes seem to be small, just take the first time I saw her true face, there was some inferiority in her eyes.

Even other emotions are seen by her, just enter the door of someone else's house, maybe a little bit of a feeling of being outside, in line with this, Nizi still doesn't say much, but she just said that one is for everyone to eat, and she listened to it again.

Chang thinks so much!

Nizi doesn't want to explain, how does love think and thinks, anyway, it's only a few years at home, and if you don't marry, you will be separated, and Chang's is too, maybe she will go to the county in a year or two, and there will be so many things if you see each other less.

The spring harvest is busy, and those who should go to the school go to the school, there are no out-of-season vegetables, and Jiang Yuheng is not busy, but the production of strawberries makes his eyes shine, and the next day he started to make a lot of wooden boxes, which contain a small grid and a small grid, and each grid will be able to hold a strawberry.

This is done to prevent it from dangling on the road, so as not to bruise the skin and cause ulceration.

During the day, Li and Chang were in the courtyard, talking, doing work, Jiang Yuheng and Nizi discussed the dozen acres of land in winter, "Girl, our village grows vegetables in winter, will the price of vegetables fall?" ”

"No, the food grows slowly, people eat fast, and it's not enough to supply the north."

"Why don't we plant those eight acres of wasteland, and for convenience, let's plant them into fruits?"

"Dad, you don't want to grow strawberries, do you?"

"Hehe, or Nizi understands Dad, I think this strawberry is really good, do you have any ones that don't climb the wall, one by one?"

"Yes, I bought several of them, and they are not expensive, only a few dollars."
