Chapter 232 Picking strawberries

It turns out that the strawberries from home are several days older than others, and are ripe before May Day. Zhang Taiping is not at home, and under the leadership of Cai Yazhi, they have already been picked once and sent to the town by Wang Gui's car to buy them.

, the price refers to those greenhouse early-ripening strawberries listed in several fruit stores.

The price was set at four yuan per catty. The anxious Cai Yazhi and Fan Ming set up stalls on the street just to protect them, fearing that no one would buy. Who would have thought that the purchasing power of the people in the town was so terrifying, and the three big bamboo baskets of strawberries were like

They were robbed like crazy and were usually sold out within an hour, with a total purchase price of more than 700 yuan.

Although seven hundred yuan was not much, it was earned within an hour, and this was also the first time that Cai Yazhi and Fan Ming made so much money by themselves. The two of them were extremely happy, especially Cai Yazhi who felt relieved.

Heinz hopes that cherries and peaches will be as popular in the future.

The total strawberry storage time is not long, only half a month at most, but once it starts to ripen, it will continue day after day, so Cai Yazhi invited Lu Feng to help pick it. This is why Zhang Taiping saw Lu Feng

The reason for being at home. Then yesterday at the big show, Cai Yazhi and Fan Ming were at the show

It happened that Cai Xiaomei came back during the May Day holiday and brought some classmates with her to play at home. Someone was picking the strawberries in the field, and Wang Gui's car was also requisitioned, and they kept transporting the picked strawberries to the town.

It was sold out as soon as it arrived in town, selling for nearly 3,000 yuan in one day.

"Why didn't you give me a call? If I knew it was so busy at home, I would have come back a few days earlier." Zhang Taiping said after listening to Fan Ming's account of the busy days.

Fan Ming said with a smile: "Sister Cai said we can do it ourselves, and my eldest brother has important things to do outside, so we are not allowed to call him."

Yaya saw the strawberries coming back, so she ran into the kitchen obediently, took a basin, rinsed the strawberries with water, placed them on the table where everyone was talking, and then got into Zhang Taiping's arms. Everyone tasted the fresh strawberries they had just picked.

Strawberry was talking.

Suddenly, one of Cai Xiaomei's female classmates exclaimed: "Look, what is that thing eating strawberries?"

Everyone looked back and saw a furry purple guy standing on the bamboo basket feasting. Xiao Xi, who was standing on the table, saw it and was filled with indignation. She pointed her wings at the guy on the bamboo basket and chirped at Cai Yazhi. Cai Yazhi looked at it.

It gestured for a while and then gently stroked its feathers with its hands before it calmed down.

"Hey, what a cute little guy, what is this?" Fan Ming asked, looking at the little guy who was eating secretly and turning his head to look at everyone.

"It's a sable. I met Ye Ling and others on the mountain range and brought it back." Zhang Taiping replied.

"Sable, one of the three treasures of the Northeast?" Cai Xiaomei's male classmate asked in surprise. He was studying engineering in the Department of Light Engineering and was quite sensitive to this.

"What are the three treasures of the Northeast?" Fan Ming asked curiously, tilting his head slightly.

The boy glanced at the sable standing on the bamboo basket and replied: "There are three treasures in the Northeast. One is the well-known ginseng, the other is deer antlers, and the third one is the sable's fur, especially the purple one."

Sables are even rarer."

After hearing the boy's words, Sable jumped onto Zhang Taiping's shoulders with a whoosh and faced the bared teeth man. Apparently, the word "fur" irritated the little guy.

"Brother, let me hug it." He said and came forward.

Zhang Taiping gave him a hand and said: "This one is not as docile as a kitten or puppy. It's better not to hold it. If it scratches you on the face, your pretty face will really be ruined." Zhang Taiping

This is not an alarmist statement. If you don’t see it, you will see Tianlongba.

Is the white sable on the top not only scratching people but also carrying poison? Although this sable is not so exaggerated as poisonous, its speed is very fast, and its wildness has not been eliminated. If it waved its claws on people's faces, it would be so...

After a while, it will be too late to remedy the situation.

Hearing what Zhang Taiping said was so serious, Fan Ming stopped and stepped forward. The little animals are cute, but they are not to the point of teasing them regardless of their own safety. As he spoke, the sable jumped to the rafter with a few swishes.

The top disappeared.

Zhang Taiping looked at the afterglow of the setting sun falling in the yard and said, "So, you were picking strawberries in the orchard just now?" Everyone nodded.

"Then let's go together."

When they got out of the yard, the others were used to seeing the lion and Ah Huang. Although they were a little surprised to see the ghost face again, they were not very scared. However, Cai Xiaomei's four classmates were different. They all touched the ghost face fearfully when they passed by it.

"Brother-in-law, did you bring these horses back too?"

"Yeah. That black horse is called Black Dragon."

"Why don't you tie them up? What if they run away?" Cai Xiaomei said a little worriedly.

Zhang Taiping went up and patted the black dragon on the head and said: "No, since they can follow me to my house, they won't run away on their own." Others didn't quite understand what Zhang Taiping meant, but they were the last to walk.

His face was as flowing as water, but he could vaguely understand why. It must be his magical paradise that was at work.

"Yaya, come here." Zhang Taiping picked up Yaya and put it on Heilong's back. At first, Heilong was reluctant, but Zhang Taiping patted her gently and calmed down.

"Come on, hold on here." Zhang Taiping asked Yaya to hold on to the mane on the back of the black dragon's neck, and then he let go and patted the black dragon gently. The black dragon took the order and strolled around the pond. After coming back,

I saw Yaya's little face flushed with nervousness and excitement.

Zhang Taiping took little Yaya off the horse, and Fan Ming came forward: "I'll ride too, I'll ride too."

It's just that this time, no matter how Zhang Taiping tried to appease the black dragon, he was still unwilling to let Fan Ming ride on it. He had no choice but to summon the brown-red horse. It was quite docile, and under Zhang Taiping's arrangement, it went smoothly.

Let Fan Ming ride on his back.

After riding around for a while, Fan Ming sat on the red horse and said, "That black dragon of yours is too temperamental, but Little Hong Zao is so obedient and cute." Well, after riding around for a while, he even picked up a name. Just call him Hong Zao.

Why do we need to add a boy in front of the red dates?

When we came to the orchard, there were ripe strawberries in the field circled by Zhang Taiping. There were many chickens and ducks surrounding it. Hey, they also knew that the strawberries were there, but they were blocked from the outside and could not get inside.

Go. After the three big dogs followed the crowd, the chickens and ducks dispersed in a rush.

The enclosed strawberry field is more than an acre, and it is now completely covered with green, dotted with dense vermilion and white flowers floating on it. The magic of strawberry is that on a vine, everything from flowers to flowers can exist at the same time.

red

Ripe strawberries are different fruits. Strawberry fruits are white when unripe, hard and sour in taste. Only in the last two days of ripeness, they suddenly turn bright red under the sun, and become soft at the same time.

It looks crystal clear.

Zhang Taiping picked a bright red one and put it into his mouth. It was sour and sweet. When his tongue pressed it, it turned into juice and flowed into his stomach without moving his teeth. It made people's tongue salivate and it would be impossible not to eat another one.

"The cherries are also ripe, and they will turn red in two days and can be bought. My sister is still worried that she will have to sell both strawberries and cherries, and people will not be able to separate them. But you are back, so I don't have to worry about it anymore.

"The little girl said to Zhang Taiping while picking strawberries.

Zhang Taiping stood up and went to the cherry tree to take a look. The branches were bent down by the clusters of fruits. The cherry particles were larger than those he had seen before. They were not yet colored and looked like clusters of crystal clear fruits.

The pearls hanging on the branches will turn into rubies again after they are fully matured and colored after two days.

Everyone gathered firewood and the flames were high. More than a dozen people of this size picked strawberries together. By the evening, they had gone through the entire strawberry field and picked a total of fifteen bamboo baskets. If one basket is calculated as thirty or forty kilograms, it weighs more than five hundred kilograms.

, and it was more than two thousand yuan. Lu Fengxin calculated it silently, and couldn't help but sigh that such a day or two had exceeded her annual income, and she was a little dazed.

In the evening, everyone gathered together to have dinner. Several of Cai Xiaomei's classmates arranged to sit in the courtyard opposite. Ye Ling and Yaya slept together from now on. After Lu Feng and Tiantian left, Zhang Taiping and his family sat under the laurel tree.

We talked for a while.

"Why don't you see the old man?" Zhang Taiping asked Cai Yazhi.

Cai Yazhi made some calculations, and Zhang Taiping understood. It turned out that old man Li Zhousheng heard that the old man had built a house on Yizhi Mountain and lived in seclusion for many years, so he persuaded the old man to go up and have a look, so the old man went up the mountain with old man Li Zhousheng.

They said they would stay for a few days before coming down.

A small farmyard has been built on the south side of the yard opposite. The chimney on the roof is still smoking in the evening. It must be that Mr. Li Zhousheng couldn't wait to move in after the house was built in these days.

The process of picking strawberries requires the whole body to bend down, which is not an easy job. I was a little tired at the end of the day, so they all went into the house to rest after sitting for a while. When Xing Rushui entered the house, he looked back and thought about Zhang Taiping and smiled,

The meaning was incomprehensible, Zhang Taiping couldn't guess it, and he didn't want to know what she was thinking, as long as she didn't tell the secret of the space.

While Cai Yazhi was taking a bath, Zhang Taiping came to the edge of the pond alone. Looking up at the starry sky, he felt that the starry sky here was more intimate than that on the grassland. He smiled to himself. It seemed that he was really a family-loving man, and was only suitable for living in a family.

My wife and children are hot on the bed at home, so it is not suitable for me to roam around outside.

ps: Please give me some basic flowers!
