The tangerines she grows have neat shapes, are neither too big nor too small, have bright colors, thin skins, are juicy, seedless and without residue, and have a very high sugar content. They are even more delicious than Yongquan tangerines.
Unfortunately, one tree only produces about 80 kilograms of tangerines, and twelve trees together only produce about 1,000 kilograms.
Such delicious tangerines naturally had to be shared with the family. She gave 100 kilograms to each of her parents on both sides, as well as her grandfather and grandfather-in-law in the countryside, and left 600 kilograms in the space for her and Lu Jin to eat slowly.
Tangerines will not deteriorate if stored in a certain space. Six hundred kilograms may seem like a lot, but if you eat them from winter to the first half of next year, they will not seem like a lot.
Su Yan took out four bags in a woven bag and put them in the study, and also took out a basket for Lu Ting.
Seeing that it was still early, he went into the space and cut thirty cabbages, picked off the yellow leaves on the outside, cut them in half, and put them into a large jar to pickle with salt.
While I have some free time tomorrow, I’ll make two jars of kimchi so I don’t have to make it in winter.
After pickling the cabbage, Su Yan went to the greenhouse to catch chickens and ducks. It was inconvenient for her to enter the space when she was in school, so she fed the livestock and poultry entirely by relying on her mind.
He tied up the chickens and ducks and threw them out of the space, then took a fine net to go fishing in the pond. However, he didn't catch any big fish, but he did catch five or six pounds of lively shrimps and small fish.
At half past five, Lu Jin came with Lu Chen and Lu Yu, carrying a basket of eggs.
"Sister-in-law, your brothers-in-law are here to eat again."
"You've come just in time. You guys will prepare dinner tonight. Lu Jin, aren't you going to do a dissection? I'll leave this chicken and duck to you. Lu Yu will light the fire, and Lu Chen will cook."
Lu Yu smiled and asked, "We have done everything, so what should my eldest brother do?"
"Your eldest brother will naturally wash the dishes and sweep the floor." Su Yan picked up a basin of oranges from the basket and said, "Come, eat the oranges first, and then you can work after you finish eating."
"Sister-in-law, why are your tangerines so yellow? They're neither too big nor too small, and the skin is so thin."
"I don't know. Your eldest brother brought this back. You can ask him when he comes back."
"What do you want to ask me?"
Lu Ting knew that his wife had returned, so he ran back in advance, holding a piece of pork liver and a piece of pork belly in his hands.
"We were talking about these mandarin oranges. My sister-in-law said you bought them. They're much better than the ones my mom buys at the supply and marketing cooperative. Where did you buy them?"
Lu Ting realized that these tangerines must have been taken out from the space, but he couldn't embarrass his wife.
"I bought these tangerines from a friend. He must have brought them from Yongquan to Jingshi."
Su Yan agreed, "You guys eat more. Your brother bought over 400 kilograms this time."
"Yes, I think the tangerines from Yongquan are much sweeter than those from our Jingshi, so I bought some more and shared some among my relatives."
"Brother, you guys are so kind. Can I bring some tangerines to school this week?"
Su Yan opened the door to the study and said, "Here are four large bags of tangerines. You can take one back now."
Lu Yu grabbed the woven bag with both hands and tried to lift it several times but failed. "It's so heavy, let's ask Dad to move it! We should just cook."
Lu Jin and others went to prepare dinner, and Lu Ting pulled Su Yan to sit on the bed in the study.
"Yan Yan, you're finally back. How come your belly has grown so much in just 20 days?"
"That's because the baby grows faster in the later stages of pregnancy."
