"Dad, big sister, come quickly, many wild fruits on the mountain are ripe."
The little girl was holding something in her arms and kept shouting at them.
"There are fruits on the mountain?" Don't the farmers' children pick them? They don't look like they can have enough food.
"Kuzi, those fruits on the mountain are not wild fruits. They are rare fruits planted by the previous ku people. People below are not allowed to touch them."
"The Jiangdi family has moved away for so many years, so won't the fruits rot in the ground every year?"
"No, when they are ripe, they will be sent to the Jiang family in Fucheng, including meat and food."
After all, the provincial capital is not far from the capital, so it is not too troublesome to send it back and forth. Now that we are moving to the capital, we are probably selling it because we are afraid that we can no longer enjoy the things here.
"What kind of fruit is ripening recently?" Seeing Li Xi's excitement, it must taste good.
"Loquats, cherries, and apricots. There's also a small vineyard on the mountain, and sometimes there are grapes and watermelons. There are other things, too. Jiang Diqi is a fruit lover, so the most distinctive feature of this farm is the various fruits, most of which he brings back from other places."
"Dad, this is really worth it."
"Yes, when I sold it to the owner, the broker also told me that there were many fruit trees. I didn't know much about them and didn't take it seriously." There are many girls in the family, and most of them like to eat sweet food. Naturally, the fruit trees left to their family are the best.
"Sister, do you think this little red fruit is pretty? It's just a little sour."
Li Xi's pockets were full of cherries, and judging by their color, they were not yet fully ripe. "Li Xi, don't pick them recently because they are not yet ripe. These cherries will be sweet and delicious when they are ripe."
Cherries can also be used to make fruit wine. If you can’t finish them, you can use them to make wine. Mom should like it.
"It's not ripe yet, but the color is already beautiful. Sister, there are so many things I have never seen in this mountain!" The little girl's face was red with excitement, and her eyes were shining. "There are also many yellow fruits, both green and yellow! Sister, look, I picked a few yellow ones."
Zhao Xiaoyu smiled and rubbed her little daughter's head. "That's a loquat. It's sweet only when it turns yellow." Then she picked a golden loquat, peeled it and handed it to Li Xi. "Try it."
Li Xi took a bite and her eyes narrowed into crescents. "So sweet! Sweeter than the ones I buy in town!"
"Loquats can relieve coughs and phlegm. If I can't finish them, I make them into loquat paste and save them for later consumption."
“It seems that there is this thing on the mountain.”
"Yes, but they are all very small and sour. The Jiang family must have brought back other varieties of loquats."
"Jiang Di is a very particular person."
As they were talking, there was a sudden commotion in the distance. A few children from farm families hid behind a tree, staring at the loquats in Li Qi's hand. When they saw the children looking at them, they ran away in fear.
"Wait!" Zhao Xiaoyu stopped them, grabbed most of the cherries and handed them to them, "Share them." What they thought was sour was a rare delicacy in their eyes.
The children didn't dare to take it, and looked at the housekeeper timidly. It was not until Zhao Dashu nodded that they carefully took the fruit, whispered thanks, and ran away.
