Chapter 165 Picking Garden
On Saturday, Zhong Hui first took Linlin to the piano store for lessons, and then returned to Bixi Garden to pick up Zhong Xu.
The two families had dinner together last night. Zhong Xu heard that they were going to the picking garden today and insisted on going with them.
For this reason, I promised Yang Fangqin that I would write an essay about visiting the picking garden when I get home today.
Zhong Hui originally wanted to take Zhong Xu with her, and when she saw that Zhong Xu agreed without even a pause, she chuckled in her heart but didn't say anything out loud.
As soon as Zhong Hui drove to the gate of the community, she saw Zhong Xu already waiting there. When he saw Zhong Hui's car, he immediately ran over with joy.
"Aunt, you are finally back. It's already noon, don't let the strawberries wilt in the sun." Zhong Xu started nagging as soon as he got in the car.
"Brother Zhong Xu, there are no strawberries in this season." Linlin corrected.
"Ah? There are no more strawberries? Oh, it's okay, we still have pineapples and lychees." Zhong Xu sat upright, looking out the window with anticipation.
The picking garden was in Huayang Village. Zhong Huishou connected to the viaduct. Zhong Xu looked at her eagerly and immediately asked anxiously, "Aunt, aren't we going to pick up Aunt He?"
"No need to pick up the phone, your Aunt He will be picked up."
"Oh." Zhong Xu felt relieved.
Linlin pouted at the side, her brother was worried that sister Siqi would not go.
After driving on the elevated road for about half an hour, Zhong Hui got off and drove on the national highway for another ten minutes. She immediately saw a sign on the side of the road: Huayang Village Picking Garden.
Following the arrow, Zhong Hui parked the car on a piece of wasteland, picked up the sun visor on the passenger seat, and got out of the car.
"Aunt, over here, Aunt He and the others are here." Zhong Xu shouted and hurried over.
"This Zhong Xu is really impatient. Pineapples can't run away."
Zhong Hui shook her head helplessly and pulled Linlin to the picking garden.
This picking garden is quite large. There is an area map at the entrance. Zhong Hui took a look and saw that there are lychee planting areas, mango planting areas, as well as bananas, longans, dragon fruits, and pineapples.
"Linlin, what do you want to pick?" As soon as they entered the door, staff members were handing out baskets. Zhong Hui took a basket and asked Linlin.
"I want to pick lychees." Linlin likes to eat lychees. When she was in the village, her greatest pleasure in the summer was climbing trees to pick lychees and longans.
"Okay, then let's get another basket." Zhong Hui took another one and handed it to Linlin.
The mother and daughter each carried a bamboo basket and wore identical straw sun hats on their heads.
He Yanqing was waiting under the lychee tree. When she saw the mother and daughter approaching, she laughed exaggeratedly and said, "They're not mother and daughter at all, they're clearly sisters."
Zhong Hui covered her mouth and laughed: "You and your Siqi are just like sisters."
"Hey, where's Siqi?" Zhong Hui looked around. "Where did Zhong Xu go?"
"Look, they're on the tree." He Yanqing pointed to the nearest lychee tree. Zhong Xu climbed up the tree and stood on tiptoe to reach the lychees on the branches.
She even called out to Zhong Siqi, who was standing under the tree: "Zhong Siqi, quickly raise your basket! I've picked a lot, and the ones on the treetops are the sweetest."
"Your Zhong Xu is quite a gentleman." He Yanqing giggled.
Zhong Hui looked at Zhong Xu's attentive look and clicked her tongue in her heart.
He Yanqing was very calm. She turned to Linlin and said, "Linlin, go quickly and ask your brother to pick a basket for you. Your brother can climb trees."
"Ahui, let's go and let the children play by themselves. Let's go pick dragon fruit. I haven't seen what dragon fruit looks like on the tree yet." He Yanqing took Zhong Hui's hand and said.
