Chapter 69: The Strawberries That Come Back
"Alright, you go back first."
"Okay, Dad!"
As in previous years, when my father opened his mouth, the big guy didn't dare to say a single extra word, and left first obediently.
Min Dalang wanted to carry Min Min on his back, but was preempted by Min Saburo.
The little girl hasn't seen the third brother for a long time, and she has been close to the third brother for the past two days, happily lying on the back of the third brother.
Min Dalang smiled and gave up.
The mountain wind blows, the grass and leaves sway, and the bright and dazzling sunlight casts spots on the ground through the layers of branches and leaves.
Sitting in front of the grave shaded by tall trees, there was a faint smell of burning paper money in the air. There was silence in all directions, and the coolness crept up from the bottom of my heart little by little, spreading all over my limbs and bones, cold to the bone.
Min Xiangming and Jiang sat side by side in front of the grave, Jiang gently leaned on Min Xiangming's shoulder, and Min Xiangming held her.
The two men did not speak for a long time.
Jiang Shi bit his lip, his eyes gradually reddened, and his eyes gradually covered with a layer of moisture.
endured and endured, she still couldn't hold back after all, leaned on Min Xiangming's shoulder and sobbed lowly.
"Lady." Min Xiangming wanted to comfort her a few words, but he didn't know how to comfort her. He patted her gently and cried.
"Brother Min, did you say that Ah Qi is still alive?"
"Ah Qi must still be alive, he is so smart, he will definitely protect himself. If we are good, he will be fine. ā
Jiang Shi choked with tears: "I don't know if our sister and brother can see each other again in this life, I didn't take good care of him"
Min Xiangming felt a pain in his heart, and said softly: "It's not your fault, Ah Qi won't blame you." ā
Jiang shook his head, crying so hard that he couldn't help himself.
The two of them stayed for a while, and when they left, their expressions were already very calm. Except for the slightly reddened eye circles, it was no longer obvious that Jiang had cried.
It's just that the mood of the two people is still not very good.
When the brothers and sisters of the Min family returned home, they lit the fire to cook, prepare dishes, and waited for their father and mother to come back to eat.
Min Min moved a small stool and sat in the yard, his elbows were bent on his knees, his hands were on his cheeks, and he looked in the direction of the courtyard door, and when he heard the courtyard door open, Min Min shouted happily: "Dad! Mother! "Ran over.
Min Xiangming and Jiang's eyes softened, and they couldn't help but smile a little more on their faces.
"Good baby!" Jiang Shi leaned over and hugged Min Min with a smile, and what fruit was handed over by the little girl on his mouth, red and gorgeous, with a very good smell of sweet and fruity, "Huh? What is it? ā
Jiang wondered.
"Mother, eat!"
Jiang Shi laughed, and opened his mouth to eat.
The sweet and juicy taste instantly permeated his mouth, and the delicate taste of the flesh was amazing, and Jiang's eyes widened in surprise.
"Mother, is it delicious?" Min Min asked with a smile crooked in her eyebrows.
"Hmm!" Jiang Shi nodded hurriedly, even more surprised: "Minmin, where did you get this fruit?" Mother has never tasted it! It's so delicious! ā
"Also, my mother likes to eat more!"
Jiang's heart warmed, every Qingming Festival, she and Brother Min would be in a bad mood, and the past that they tried not to think about and forget on weekdays would always be uncontrollable. This day is also the only day they indulge themselves from suppressing the past.
The little girl must have seen that she was in a bad mood, so she coaxed herself in a different way.
Jiang affectionately pinched the little girl's white and red pink face, "It's enough for my mother to taste it, leave it for Minmin to eat!" My mother was happier to see Minmin eat than my mother to eat it herself. ā
"There are a lot, and my mother eats it too!" Min Min glanced at his father and added, "Daddy eats it too!" ā
Min Xiangming and Jiang both laughed.
When the two of them entered the house, they saw a basket of bright red fruits on the old table of the Eight Immortals.
The fruit is slightly larger than the pigeon's egg, in the shape of a large and small pointed oval, full and fresh, and the red color is very beautiful, which is particularly attractive at first sight.
"It'sā"
The two were dumbfounded.
Min Wulang smiled proudly: "Father, mother, this is what Min Min and I pulled back and planted in the mountains, and I found out today that it actually bore fruit!" And we took all the ripe ones off! This is all washed, and we tasted one by ourselves, but it was sweet and sweet, so delicious! Min Min said that he would not eat until you came back, so you should try it! ā
Min Erlang also smiled: "Min Min and Goro didn't know where to pull it back, it's really a good thing!" Min Min called this strawberry. ā
"Strawberries?"
"Grow in the grass!" Min Min smiled and grabbed one and fed it to his father: "Daddy, eat it, it's so sweet!" ā
Min Xiangming subconsciously opened his mouth to eat, and his eyes lit up, "Well, it's really sweet!" ā
Jiang Shi smiled and said, "Eat everything!" Indeed, it is a good fruit. ā
"Hey, Howler!"
Everyone ate it and praised it.
Min Min deliberately dragged Min Xiangming and Jiang Shi to the courtyard to watch. Min Dalang and the others have already seen it, and they have all followed.
I saw a corner of the yard, this strawberry grew a small piece, covering about two square meters of ground, crawling with green vines, blooming many small white flowers, hanging many fruits of different sizes, some just growing, some have faintly red.
"It's-"
Jiang and Min Xiangming were dumbfounded.
Min Dalang said with a smile: "The fifth said that they didn't plant so much, you see, this thing will grow new on its own, no wonder it grows so big." ā
Min Xiangming and Jiang looked over, and sure enough.
Jiang Shi smiled: "It's good, it's good, go back and get some vegetables to plant in the corner of the garden, this fruit is really good!" It's still bearing fruit. ā
"Hmm!" Min Min smiled and said casually: "If you can't finish eating, you can still sell it!" ā
Everyone laughed.
Min Wulang also quipped: "Little money fan! ā
Min Erlang was moved in his heart and said with a smile: "Father, mother, what Min Min said is right, I think I can indeed give it a try." This strawberry is different from other wild fruits, the fruit is large, the flesh is rich, sweet and beautiful, I think it will definitely sell for a good price. ā
Min Xiangming said: "How can it be as easy as you think to go into the city to sell things? Besides, it's not much, isn't it too much trouble? ā
Min Erlang thought for a while, "I can try to ask about teahouses, restaurants and other places." Teahouses and restaurants will provide new fruits, and I think this strawberry is really suitable. ā
As soon as Min Erlang said this, the brothers of the Min family became excited and said that they could give it a try.
Min Min also nodded like a little adult, "That's it!" Nobody buys us to eat ourselves! ā
"Haha, that's right, it's not going to be wasted anyway!"
Min Xiangming also nodded and smiled: "Okay, then try it!" ā
Min Erlang suddenly perked up, glanced at the strawberry seedlings on the ground and said, "It should be more ripe in a few days, so I'll pick it and try it!" ā
"Good!"
"Okay!"
Ask for a monthly pass and see you tomorrow!
