The fruit didn't smell very nice, but Hua Wanli chewed it.
"Hey, you know what, it's sweet, soft and crispy, and has a unique flavor. It's quite delicious."
Fang Jianzhong also took a bite out of curiosity: "Hmm? It tastes quite good. There's so much that we can't finish it, let's take some to my parents' house."
One of them cleaned up the mess, while the other put the fruit pulp in a lunch box and washed his hands and knife with water several times before he was sure they were clean.
The couple brought the fruit to Hua Aihua's house, and Su Qiuying had just taken Xiaole home.
"You guys are here? The meal will be ready soon."
While Su Qiuying was speaking, there was a busy sound from the kitchen, and a voice called out:
"Sister, brother-in-law, just one more dish will be ready!"
The person who spoke was Hua Yuanming. When Su Qiuying was still at work, the two brothers were the only ones at home with nothing to do.
Ever since Wan Qingliu started earning money, there has been no tradition in the Hua family of men not doing housework, and the two brothers have successfully taken on the housework at home.
Hua Aihua said: "Your uncles can take care of children. If you can't do housework, how are you going to please girls in the future?"
After taking turns doing housework with his brother for a few years, Hua Yuanming is now very skillful in sweeping the floor, washing dishes, and wiping the table. He is also a good cook.
It's true, his ability to do housework actually helped him win the favor of a pretty girl.
Girls think that men who can do housework are emotionally stable and family-oriented, and their future life will be good.
In addition, the members of the Hua family are all good-looking. Except for Hua Yuanming who has not found a job yet, the other conditions are very good.
The two are still in love and are waiting for Hua Yuanming to find a job so that they can meet each other's parents.
Xiaole sniffed and asked, "Why does it smell so stinky?"
Fang Jianzhong smiled and opened the lunch box: "Xiao Le has a very good nose. This is a new variety of fruit I just bought. Do you want to try it?"
Hua Wanli also smiled and said, "This thing smells a bit stinky, but it tastes quite sweet. Mom, you try it."
Su Qiuying glanced at the fruit, feeling rather surprised: "I've never seen this fruit before. Did you buy it at the fruit store?"
"There are a lot of new fruits in the fruit shops lately, but they're all quite expensive."
Hua Wanli smiled and said, "What are you afraid of? I don't eat it every day. I can afford to buy it just to try it."
Su Qiuying: "How much is this?"
"Ten yuan each, and five yuan per pound after peeling."
Su Qiuying felt a little pained. Apples were only eight cents per pound, and the more expensive ones were only a few cents at most. But a jackfruit would cost one-third of her salary. How many people could afford it?
Xiaole took one and put it in his mouth out of curiosity, his eyes suddenly lit up.
“It’s delicious!”
Su Qiuying's heartache disappeared instantly, and she looked loving: "Xiao Le likes it. I will go to the fruit store to buy some tomorrow."
What’s ten yuan? If Xiaole likes it, twenty or thirty is fine.
Hua Yuanming brought out the last dish, and the room was already filled with the rich smell of tropical fruits.
He felt strange: "What's that smell? Is something broken?"
It smells a bit smelly, a bit sour, and has a sweet aroma. In short, it's weird, like the sour smell of something that has fermented too much.
Hua Wanli said, "Your brother-in-law bought some fruit. Try it later and see if you like it."
Since nothing was broken, Hua Yuanming felt relieved and shouted:
"Put the fruit over there, now come and get the rice!"
At this time, the door opened with a click, and Hua Aihua and Hua Yuancheng walked in, each holding a big pineapple in their hands.
After entering the door, Hua Aihua smiled and said, "Look what I bought?"
Pineapple is also a new fruit for everyone. This place is not the origin of pineapples, the transportation cost is high, and it is easy to spoil when transported here, so fruit stores generally do not sell this thing.
But for some reason, it seemed like overnight, a lot of unprecedented fruits and vegetables appeared on the market.
I don’t dare to try cooking vegetables easily because I’m afraid I won’t know how to cook them and ruin the dish.
But you can still buy some fruit to try.
After dinner, everyone ate pineapples and jackfruits, which they found fun and delicious.
After the pineapple is soaked in salt water, it tastes fresh, sweet and sour, which is completely different from the taste of jackfruit.
The whole family found it strange. Pineapple and jackfruit only differ by one letter, yet they look completely different. They are completely different in appearance, taste and flesh.
Hua Aihua asked Xiaole: "Will we eat jackfruit or pineapple tomorrow?"
Adults don’t care. Children can eat whatever they want at home.
Xiaole thought about it very seriously and said, "I want to eat jackfruit. Pineapple is delicious, but it hurts my mouth."
Wan Qingliu also discovered that the variety of fruits sold in the county town had increased, and many fruits in the space could be taken out.
She can finally eat tropical fruits like bananas and mangoes openly!
After closing the stall, Wan Qingliu immediately carried a huge jackfruit to Hua Aihua's house, shocking the whole family.
Wan Qingliu was very calm: "I have connections at the fruit shop. The person who specializes in writing trusts sent me a few large ones."
Now she can talk nonsense without any draft, and it is also incredibly smooth.
When Wan Qingliu heard that Xiaole liked to eat, he became thoughtful.
As for why so many tropical fruits suddenly appeared, perhaps it can be attributed to the technology that was introduced in those years.
It also costs money to mature those technological research and then implement them. It may take a long time from the beginning of research to the final promotion.
Therefore, not every technology has produced results at present.
Even Hua Wanchi himself couldn't remember how much technology he had donated, but now he has actually developed transportation technology.
Technological advances in air conditioners and refrigerators have also promoted the development of cold chain transportation technology. Although it is still a bit difficult to transport tropical fruits to Beijing, there is no problem in transporting them to Jiangxi Province.
For Wan Qingliu, there is plenty of space for these fruits and there is no need to buy them.
Although she can make money, it hurts to spend this ten dollars. The current planting technology is not as good as that of later generations, and the taste is definitely not as good as that of later generations.
The fruits grown in the space have thicker flesh and taste better than those grown outside.
Before, if Wan Qingliu and Hua Wanchi wanted to eat fruit, they had to eat it when no one was around or go directly to the space.
Now I can take it out openly.
When Wan Qingliu heard that Xiaole liked to eat it, she waved her hand and said, "Grandma, buy it for me!"
In fact, it is taken from space.
Since the one she sent was already big enough, and another one would make the whole family upset, she didn't give out more jackfruits.
Wan Qingliu put down another one: "This is specially for Yanyan, you can ask her to come and get it when the time comes."
Of course Wan Qingliu would not forget Hua Wanyan, but he was too lazy to go to her house again. It would be tiring to run back and forth.
