Chapter 449: Peach!
Tong Xiayue took the peach cut by Professor Ning, and her hand was made sticky by the juice as soon as she took the peach.
Everyone put the peach into their mouths and looked at Professor Ning in disbelief...
Professor Ning held the peach in his hand but did not dare to put it into his mouth, and the tension lingered in his heart: "What's it like?"
Tong Xiayue cleared her throat and said, "Why don't you try it?" Professor Ning
realized that she had not eaten the small piece of peach in her hand yet...
She quickly put the peach into her mouth, full of juice and fragrance!
Ning Xi smiled and said, "Mom, this peach is so delicious!"
Professor Ning did not expect that the peach he grafted would be so delicious!
It was a taste he had never tasted before!
Most of the peaches I ate before were crisp peaches. You can pick them and eat them when you see the peach body turn red. The crisp taste with a little sweet and sour taste makes it the most popular fruit in summer besides watermelon!
In the past few years, she has been reading various materials and overcoming various difficulties, just wanting to make a pure sweet and non-acid soft peach!
Unexpectedly, after many attempts, she finally succeeded! After
eating the peach, Ji Jiashu was also amazed by the taste he had never tried before: "Professor, you are so amazing, this peach doesn't have a sour taste at all, it's so sweet! There is so much juice! I have never eaten such a peach!"
Tong Xiayue smiled and said, "Of course you haven't eaten it. Didn't Professor Ning say that this is what she just researched! You can't eat it outside!"
Professor Ning smiled and said, "Finally it worked! Hahaha! You are so unlucky. If you had come a day or two earlier, you wouldn't have been able to eat it!"
Tong Xiayue smiled and said, "Yes, we are lucky too!"
Professor Ning took them to the well to wash their hands: "Xiayue, you come and name this peach!"
Tong Xiayue looked at Professor Ning in surprise: "Me?"
How could such a big thing as naming a variety be done by someone like me who has nothing to do with it?
Tong Xiayue shook her hands repeatedly: "How can this be? I didn't help at all, and I even ate your peach. How can you let me name it?"
Professor Ning smiled and said, "I have researched the things. What's the point of a name? You come up with one."
The main reason was that Professor Ning still believed in Tong Xiayue's ability. It was also very important to come up with a nice name!
This name was a natural thing for Tong Xiayue. Seeing Professor Ning praise her so much, she was embarrassed to refuse again.
Tong Xiayue pretended to think for a while, then smiled and said, "This peach tastes so juicy and sweet like honey! Let's call it honey peach?"
Ning Xi: "Honey peach?"
Ji Jiashu: "Honey peach?"
Professor Ning clapped his hands and said, "What a good name! Honey peach! Just hearing it makes me want to eat it!"
Of course, he was satisfied with the name. In the next few decades, this peach will dominate the whole country!
Tong Xiayue and Ji Jiashu were invited to have a meal at home today.
Except for the mustard greens, Professor Ning's family grows all the other vegetables by themselves, and they are different from those bought outside!
He is indeed an expert in the study of agriculture!
Tong Xiayue enjoyed this meal very much!
Maybe he felt that the matter of Yangliu Village had been settled, so the pressure in his heart was not so great!
At the dinner table, Tong Xiayue said worriedly: "Professor, can you teach me the grafting technique of this peach first? Although it is a bit shameless, I think if the trees are not planted this year, the hilltop will be abandoned for a long time, and the villagers will have to wait another year..."
The professor spent so many years researching this variety, and she wanted to take the technology so casually...
It was indeed a bit shameless, but Tong Xiayue had no choice. Now Yangliu Village can use the lotus pond to support it for a while, but it is not a long-term solution after all...
Ning Xi's face darkened when she heard this, and she slammed the chopsticks on the table, and said angrily: "Do you know how hard my mother worked to research a variety? Do you know how much she paid? You You want to take the technology with just one sentence? ! It's ridiculous, right? ! "
Tong Xiayue knew that she had gone too far just now, and hurriedly apologized: "Professor Ning, I... I didn't mean that..."
Seeing that his wife's face was flushed with anxiety, Ji Jiashu hurried to help: "Professor Ning, Xiayue didn't mean that, don't get me wrong, the harvest in the countryside has been poor in the past two years, and many villagers in Yangliu Village are indeed hungry. Everyone was forced to take the risk to do this, thinking that if it was done well, other villages would follow suit, so that everyone could live a better life. Xiayue was also anxious, worried that the villagers would have to wait for another year..."
After hearing Ji Jiashu's explanation, Professor Ning had a better impression of the girl in front of him.
In this era, it is not easy to just think about living a good life for yourself, but she can actually consider the whole village!
How precious!
Professor Ning looked at Tong Xiayue: "Xiayue, of course it is no problem to teach you grafting. I will teach you these techniques later anyway, so just treat it as learning in advance! How about this, when are you free these days, take me to Yangliu Village, and I will go to investigate."
It has been several years since the last time she went to Yangliu Village. The development of agriculture is linked to many factors, and she needs to go to the field to investigate before making a final judgment.
Tong Xiayue excitedly held Professor Ning's hand after hearing what she said: "Professor, thank you so much! Yangliu Village is saved!"
Ning Xi had never seen her mother so fond of someone before. Seeing the two of them chatting enthusiastically, she felt inexplicably lost...
She was obviously her mother, why didn't she inherit her genes?
Why did she really have no interest in agriculture at all...
Why was it that every time her mother shared her achievements with her, she couldn't feel her joy?
Seeing how Tong Xiayue and Ning Xi got along so well, Ning Xi actually had the illusion that she was more like her daughter...
Tong Xiayue saw Ning Xi standing aside with a lost look on her face, and said caringly: "Ning Xi, why don't you come with us? I'll take you to the countryside to see the scenery?"
Ning Xi was about to refuse, but Professor Ning agreed immediately: "Okay! She has lived in the city since she was a child. Every time I went to the countryside for investigation, she stayed at other professors' homes. She has never been to the countryside. It just so happens that school hasn't started yet, so let her go with us to take a look! Let her see how hard it is to get the food we eat now!"
After hearing what Professor Ning said, Ning Xi didn't say anything more. She turned around and went into the room. She didn't come out until Tong Xiayue and Ji Jiashu left.
After Tong Xiayue and Ji Jiashu left Professor Ning's house, they were in a good mood all the way!
Tong Xiayue sat on the back seat of the bicycle, hugged Ji Jiashu's waist with her arms, and rested her little face on his strong back, humming a little song unconsciously!
The sun was setting, and the afterglow was sprinkled on the two of them. The heat gradually dissipated, and the breeze came, gently lifting the girl's bangs. This quiet time is worth cherishing for a lifetime.
