When Xu's mother first saw the fruit tea with such beautiful color and fruity smell, she was immediately curious. After drinking it, she found that it was sour and sweet, and she liked it all at once.
"Mom, I've put the dried fruits and scented tea in the kitchen, along with honey. Feel free to drink any you like."
"Very good. I'll make a big pot tomorrow and take it to my neighbor's house to show off."
Song Tanglan nodded indifferently when she heard this. She would dry a lot of fruits every year anyway. After all, she had planted too many fruit trees. Apart from the good quality ones that could be sold, they couldn't finish eating the poor quality ones at once.
They are all dried and preserved. Every year at that time, she would collect some from the brigade and use them to dry.
Gradually, drinking fruit tea and flower tea became her habit. When her family members drank too much, she would also have a cup when she was in the mood.
Every time Xu Qi went to the brigade, he drank all kinds of strange teas brewed by the little girls. Now when he picked it up and tasted it, he knew it was plum tea. It was really this color, red a bit like rouge, and he could recognize it at a glance.
He also knew that the little girl liked fruity scents for perfumes and lipsticks.
Because he had seen a lot of bottles and jars on the dressing table, even his mother had some, all given by little girls.
My mother often took these things to show off in front of those aunts!

As soon as it was dawn, Xu Qi pulled the little girl out of bed, carried her to the bathroom, washed her face, and then said something when he saw that she was awake.
"Wife, you said yesterday that you would get up early. If you don't get up now, you will miss your parents' train."
"I'm getting up now, you go out and I'll wash up."
"Okay, Mom said she wants to go with us to see Mom and Dad off, and we can have breakfast at the state-owned restaurant."
Song Tanglan heard this and replied in a daze, "Okay."
Xu Qi was waiting in the room for her to finish washing and getting dressed. When they went out, they saw Xu's mother already dressed and waiting for them there.
Song Tanglan walked over and took her hand, then said, "Mom."
"Are you ready? Let's go. Let's go to the state-owned restaurant and buy some buns. Then pack a box of dumplings so that my in-laws can eat on the train. The food on the train is really terrible and expensive."
Song Tanglan thought about it and nodded. She would not refuse something that would make her parents feel better on the train!
And she had this plan in mind.
When they were about to go to the state-owned restaurant, Song Tanglan bought pancakes, buns and a portion of dumplings, but she didn't buy too much because she knew her second sister would prepare dry food for her parents, and if she prepared too much, they wouldn't be able to finish it.
But when she saw soy milk, she immediately took out a water cup from her backpack and bought two.
Fortunately, she thought of this possibility before she went out, so she brought a water cup with her.
When she came out, he handed the soy milk and buns to Xu's mother. "Mom, it's still early. We can still have time to eat while walking."
