Behind my kitchen, there is an open space where a very old sour jujube tree is planted.
It's been around for as long as I can remember.
It is said that it was planted by my aunt when I was a child.
I have always wondered why my aunt planted jujube trees, but she never ate them.
Every year in September and October, after the millet is harvested, a lot of jujubes will be produced.
Yellow, yellow and green, covered with branches, very attractive.
The green wild jujube is not yet ripe, astringent and brittle.
The ripe wild jujube is light yellow, sour, with another acid in the acid.
The fruit of wild jujube has a large core and thin skin, and only the white flesh on the top is eaten. The pulp is sticky, a bit like rice cakes, but more delicate, with the unique fragrance of fruits.
I hate sour dates the most in my life, not just ordinary ones!
When I was just born, my aunt hugged me and gave me jujubes from the back of the house to eat. If I didn¡¯t eat them, I stuffed them into my mouth. No matter how I shook my head from side to side, I couldn¡¯t escape the jujubes.
My aunt stuffed the jujube into my mouth abruptly, and I spit it out instantly, and she stuffed it into my mouth again after spitting it out, she just took pleasure in it! Since then, it has left a shadow, and now I hate who mentions jujube to me the most.
But there is one exception, and that is my great-grandmother. Great-grandmother liked me since I was a child, and she would leave everything delicious for me. And besides red oranges, she usually only likes jujubes.
Every year when the jujubes are ripe, I will pick up a lot of jujubes for my great-grandmother. Her eyesight is not convenient and she can't pick them up by herself, so I pick them up and hand them to her. Every time she picks up more, she can eat for several days.
?Because the jujube tree behind the door blocked the road, it was crooked and very thick, so Yao Zuzu who was at the opposite door suggested that we cut down the tree.
?After mentioning it a few times, and considering that it would affect others crossing the road, my grandfather cut down the jujube tree. Since then, there has been no jujube tree in the door, and I have lost the food I hate
?Beside a bamboo forest not far from Yuan Xiaodong's home, there is also a sour jujube tree. The jujube tree is beside the field. I don't know if it is wild or planted.
This is the paid condition I learned from the children in the next village some time ago! Cost me 2 marbles. Originally, I would pick up some for my great-grandmother after school someday, but I have been busy recently, so I didn't take the path. After school today, I suddenly remembered it, so I decided to come and have a look.
On the side of the small road, I found the one in the paid news called Yuan Xiaolong. The rectangular field on the right hand side of the triangular field next to the door diagonally opposite to Yuan Xiaolong, walked along the field, and followed the junction of the second field and the bamboo forest. , is the jujube tree. After finding the number, I looked up and was pleasantly surprised to find that the jujube on the tree was ripe! Yellow and orange, like gems.
Quickly put down the schoolbag, found a big rock (the stone was left here by the person who smashed the jujube, almost every jujube tree comes standard with a big stone), tried the feel, and threw it hard at the tree.
"ž~" Maybe the stone is too small? Or maybe I was not strong enough, and after the jujube tree swayed a little, it stabilized. But the fruit on the tree fell.
Annoying! How dare a tree look down on me! I picked up the stone again, stared at the trunk, and smashed it three times in a row!
"Pa-pa-pa!" After hitting it hard three times, the jujube finally couldn't bear my internal strength and fell from the tree one after another.
Throwing down the stone, I ran to the field, looking for fresh fruits according to the position of the wild jujube that just landed.
There are a lot of jujubes in the field, green and yellow, spread on the ground after the millet has been cut, some are deep in it, and some are on the top.
The cyan wild jujube sinks deeply because it is hard and heavy;
The yellow ones are almost on the skin, but many of them have broken the skin after falling from a high altitude and cannot be eaten.
What's more, due to the long time of falling, it has already rotted and has grown hair! !
After picking up a few jujubes that fell from memory, he fell into an embarrassing state.
There are a lot of fruits that just fell, but these are the few that my eyes can record. The others are mixed in the slices of jujube, waiting for my discovery.
There is no way, I can only pick them up one by one, observe carefully, and distinguish carefully.
As long as there is even a little bit of something wrong, don't want it all, and weed it out!
After one round, I finally had a dozen jujubes in my hand. But it was not enough. Although the jujube tree was not far from home, the fruit ripening time was very short, and judging from the stone, more than one person knew about it.
So I decided to take some back with me so that next timeAt the time of ??, the jujube was gone.
Picking up the stone again, this time I made a unique move. I smashed it twice and saw that 4-5 jujubes were dropped, so I dropped the stone and hurried over to pick it up, so that I would not miss fresh jujubes .
Before I knew it, I had stayed for more than half an hour, and I had to hurry up, or it would be over when I got home later.
After thinking about it, I came up with an ultimate trick!
Go to the field and jump up hard!
With a "pop", after I landed, I stepped on the green and yellow jujube into the mud!
Move your feet away and compare with the surrounding soil, the jujube is obviously stuck in the mud, hehe!
Then, this jumping feast begins! I bounced back and forth for a while, and when my legs were about to lose strength, I finally completed the stampede on the main landing point of the jujube!
Now there is no need to worry about the future. "Bang bang bang bang bang!" Picking up a stone is like smashing it
"Tat-tat-tat-tat" the jujube hit the ground violently like a torrential rain
Hahaha! Get rich now!
Throwing down the stone and running to the area just stepped on, a burst of ecstasy instantly filled my heart!
It really works! The sour dates in the stampede area are all fresh!
In addition to the green ones and the overripe ones that have been pecked by birds, there are many, many more!
I picked them up one by one, and when I couldn't finish them, I turned around and walked to the field ridge, put them in my schoolbag, and continued to pick them up.
After going back and forth two or three times, the jujube was finally picked up!
This is really enough! After taking a look, there are about forty or fifty jujubes in the schoolbag, which is enough for my great-grandmother to eat for several days!
Looking at the golden jujube in his hand, it seemed to be the most ripe one harvested today. After hesitating for a while, he peeled off the skin, put it in his mouth and licked it, just adding it.
"Sour!" Damn it! It's killing me! The lingering sour taste permeates from the tip of the tongue to the root of the tongue, and the secretion of saliva cannot be stopped. Well, it seems that I underestimated it, or the rejection that goes deep into the soul is not so easy to erase.
Hastily threw away the remaining jujube in his hands, wiped his hands, and the speed of saliva secretion in his mouth slowed down a little.
"Ren Tao, what are you doing over there?" Looking up, I saw Second Mistress calling me on the main road. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
