A carat of tears: "I don't like eating bayberry, it's too sour. I've been waiting for the boss's vegetables for the fourteenth day. Will the boss's vegetables be delivered tomorrow?"
Contentment is the key to happiness: "The boss disappeared when she stopped selling vegetables. I strongly condemn her irresponsible behavior! If she serves new vegetables tomorrow, I will forgive her."
Lifelong peace: "Since I ate vegetables from my boss's shop, my three highs have improved, and I feel more energetic when I walk. I wonder if the bayberry is just as good."
Lotus Pond Moonlight: "What a coincidence! My mom's blood sugar has also dropped. Does the boss's vegetables have such a miraculous effect?"
Fengyutongzhou: "Cucumbers seem to have these effects. Maybe the boss's food is good, and eating it often will have a quick effect. Speaking of which, I used to get acne on my face a lot, but now I have fewer acne."
Lily of the Valley: "Does anyone know how many days it will take for the boss to serve new dishes?"
Contentment is the key to happiness: "I don't know. I haven't heard from the boss yet. I'll buy some bayberries to satisfy my craving. These days, everything else I eat tastes bland, like grass. The boss's dishes are so delicious, so the bayberries must taste good too."
Youlan: "How do I buy bayberries? The boss didn't tell me."
One Carat of Tears: "Yangmei is too sour. Forget it. I won't buy any."
The snow kept falling: "I have some bayberries here. You can try them first. They are not too sour and taste good."
Sun Xue can say this because some people in the group live in the same community, and those who don’t live in the same community are basically in the luxury housing area and the distance between them is not too far.
After all, it is a fruit, and it is bayberry. The taste in everyone's memory is more sour with a little sweetness, and few people like to eat it. Even some vegetable lovers dare not directly ask to buy it. Now that they can taste it, everyone will definitely be happy.
So we gathered together those who wanted to try it in the group, and decided to meet at the community landscape pavilion, which was equivalent to a small offline meeting of netizens.
Sun Xue washed the bayberries and went out early.
The landscape pavilions in the community are particularly grand, with eight pavilions connected to each other and built above the lake.
In hot weather, you can feel the cool breeze blowing across the lake in the pavilion.
A bayberry tasting party began.
As soon as everyone tasted the bayberry, they couldn’t sit still anymore. The bayberry was simply so delicious!
So they took out their mobile phones and started chatting privately with the boss, fearing that it would be too late and the bayberries would be gone.
But the boss didn't say he was going to sell it, and there was no price. Everyone agreed to start with 200 yuan per pound. Such delicious bayberries can't be sold at a lower price. If the boss sets a higher price, we can just pay more, but we must first take up a spot to buy bayberries. The address information is sent and the money is transferred directly.
Soon, Xu Qingzhi’s private message exploded.
But the person was feeding chickens and was not looking at his phone.
Xu Qingzhi fed the chickens and ducks, but felt that the feeding trough was still too small, so he went home, picked up a machete, and went to the bamboo forest not far away.
That was the bamboo forest planted by her grandfather's previous generation. It belonged to the Xu family and grew all year round without anyone taking care of it. When the bamboo shoots grew, the Xu family would dig some to eat. If other people in the village needed some bamboo, they would also cut some bamboo for use. The Xu family would not say anything.
Xu Qingzhi picked up two bamboos that looked thick, and chopped them down, making a notch. Then he chopped hard at the notch, and in that moment he had chopped one bamboo. It didn't take much effort to cut two bamboos either.
She dragged out two bamboos and started processing them on the side of the road.
Cut off all the roots and branches of the bamboo, remove the thin ends of the bamboo at the bottom, and throw them into the space, leaving only the strongest long section, and then cut it in half with a machete.
Then he placed four bamboos in the bayberry garden, and brought back half a basin of rice from home, pouring it into the bamboos. This way, hundreds of chickens and ducks would not have to crowd together to eat.
Xu Fuqiang was filling the troughs for chickens and ducks with water. When he saw the fresh bamboo trough, he said, "Qingzhi, next time you need bamboo, ask dad to cut it. It's hard for a girl like you to cut bamboo."
Xu Fuqiang's face froze, and he turned his head away guiltily, saying, "I came back to see if the chickens and ducks were fed. I was afraid they were hungry."
As soon as Xu Qingzhi saw her father's expression, she knew that something must have happened over there, but since her father didn't want to say it, she didn't mention it.
She only asked: "Is Mom back?"
"Your mother is still helping."
"Then I'll cook lunch, Dad, what do you want to eat?"
"Just make whatever you like. I like to eat anything my daughter makes." Xu Fuqiang's previous anger disappeared by a large amount, and he felt a little happier. He had a sensible and good daughter.
Xu Qingzhi went to the field to pick water spinach, tomatoes and cucumbers. Chinese cabbage grows fast, but let this one grow for two more days before eating.
Then she went to pick some peppers and shallots.
Her father was still watching the chickens and ducks in the back. Xu Qingzhi made a gesture and the paper man began to busily pick, wash and cut water spinach.
Chop the cucumber, pepper and shallot, and put the steamed pork with rice flour in the steamer after the steam is started.
Xu Qingzhi had been practicing diligently before, and the amount of spiritual energy in his body had increased a lot. It felt good to have enough spiritual energy, and he would feel dizzy if he didn't know how to make a gesture.
Xu Qingzhi could also perceive her surroundings more keenly. For example, now, someone was approaching this side. She waved her hand, and the paper man who was cutting vegetables disappeared in the air. The kitchen knife hit the chopping board unexpectedly with a clang.
She picked up the knife and continued to cut the half tomato.
"Qingzhi, are you starting to cook?" Wang Yanmei came back from outside and walked towards the kitchen.
Xu Qingzhi finished cutting the tomatoes and put down the knife. "Well, it's getting late, so I'll prepare the vegetables first."
Wang Yanmei looked at the dishes that had been prepared, the chili rings and shallots that had been neatly cut. It took a lot of effort, so she said quickly, "Mom will do it. You go take a rest."
"Mom, why are you and Dad back? Don't you need help over there?" Xu Qingzhi asked, standing in the kitchen and picking up some washed bayberries to eat. It stands to reason that the funeral will be tomorrow, so today should be quite busy.
Wang Yanmei's face wasn't looking good either, she lowered her voice and said, "Today your second aunt and your father had a quarrel over there, and your father was unhappy so he came back. I came back just after finishing my work, and since you and your father were at home anyway, I didn't eat there, and came back to cook for myself."
"What's wrong?" Xu Qingzhi asked.
"Forget it, it's okay. I won't tell a kid like you about adult matters. Pick some vegetables this afternoon and send them to your second aunt, and say hello to your second uncle. Send some to your eldest uncle's house, and let him know that you're back." Wang Yanmei reminded.
Xu Qingzhi frowned and said lazily, "Mom, I don't want to go. It's so hot and it's several miles away. I'm too lazy to walk."
Wang Yanmei still felt that her daughter had changed and was worried that she was possessed by a ghost. Now look... her stubborn daughter is back again.
She said in a firm voice, "You have to go! Don't let your dad know, do you hear me?"
Xu Qingzhi understood in his heart, "Maybe my second aunt said that I was uneducated, and my father heard it, so he quarreled with her."
Wang Yanmei said nothing.
"I knew it was like that. Second Aunt has always said that I have no manners. I always call her when I see her, but she just looks cold and sometimes doesn't even answer me. If you hadn't taught me to call elders when I see them, I really wouldn't be happy to stick my face to her cold butt."
