Chapter 165 Planting Fruit Trees
"Hey, isn't it right?"
The father and son quarreled like this for a long time, and when Zhou Wenjun fully learned to eat candy, Sanwa's candy pocket was empty, and seven or eight candies went into Zhou Wenjun's stomach.
Xu Qian looked at their father and son and couldn't stop laughing. Her stomach ached from laughing on the table.
"Wow……"
"My candy, Dad lied to me, wow..."
The third baby is not really stupid, he was coaxed by his father to eat seven or eight candies, and he felt that the small pocket was empty, so he didn't know, it was his father who tricked him into eating candies!
"Sanwa is really stupid. She has been cheated so many times, but she still doesn't have a long memory."
The eldest baby reached out to touch his little pocket, and covered it carefully, fortunately, he still had Tangtang.
Sanwa is so pitiful that she was not deceived by her parents.Mom and Dad like to lie to him the most.
Erwa was more sneaky and wanted to sneak out, so she hid the Tangtang on her body separately, so much Tangtang was on her body.He didn't feel safe at all.
However, just as his left foot stepped over the threshold of the kitchen, he was stopped by his mother behind him.
"Second baby, where are you going?"
"Come here, let mom hug you."
"Mom, I need to pee."
Erwa frowned and ran away, no matter how Xu Qian called him from behind, he pretended not to hear, Tangtang had to hide as soon as possible.
Xu Qian didn't know where Erwa's Tangtang was hidden, but Tangtang was in Dawa's pocket.
That night, they were coaxed out by Xu Qian and his wife and finished eating, not a single one was left for the little bastards.
For such things as candy, it is enough to give them one piece a day, and they must not be allowed to eat more.
In exchange for coaxing candy, Xu Qian also promised them to cook delicious food for them during the Chinese New Year.
"Hey, where's my Tangtang?"
Erwa ran out to hide the candy last night in a hurry. When she woke up in the morning, she couldn't remember where she hid the candy, and she couldn't find it anywhere outside the house.
Later, when Xu Qian swept the floor out of the corner, the few candies that Erwa hid had already melted.
……
"Qianqian, I dug some fruit trees back, it's better for you to come out and see where these fruits are planted."
Since Xu Qian said last time that there were no fruit trees at home, Zhou Wenjun paid attention to it. He searched everywhere in the village and outside the mountains, and he really dug up a lot of fruit trees and brought them back.
There are at most five peach trees, pear trees, and persimmon trees, as well as two jujube trees and two loquat trees.
What pleased Xu Qian the most was that Zhou Wenjun actually dug a few cherry trees back.She hadn't eaten cherries for many years. Thinking about the taste of cherries, Xu Qian couldn't help swallowing.
Although there are cherries in the later generations, but the cherries in the later generations are sprayed with a lot of pesticides, and she doesn't like to buy and eat them.
That is, those pure natural cherries that I ate when I was a child have the taste of cherries. I really miss it!
"Let me see, the cherry tree is planted in the yard, the peach tree, pear tree, and loquat tree are planted beside the yard. The persimmon tree is next to the right wing, and the walnut tree is planted behind the house."
Walnut trees grow fast and grow taller.
Xu Qian planned to plant it behind the house, and when it grows taller in the future, it can also shade her yard.
"Where are the jujube trees, where are they planted?"
"Well, it is planted on the side of the small road on the left side of the wing room, and the children can pick the fruit to eat in the future."
"it is good."
Zhou Wenjun nodded and took a hoe to dig a hole. The fruit tree seedlings he dug back were all two or three years old. It may take several years for them to bear fruit.
The fruit saplings that Xu Qian planted before had grown a lot, so she took advantage of Zhou Wenjun's planting time to transplant the saplings she had planted together.
"Daughter-in-law, is this a grape seedling?"
Most of the fruit trees that Xu Qian sows are apple trees, orange trees, pear trees, peach trees and other ordinary fruit trees.
Only vines are scarce in this era, but they are not unavailable. The supply and marketing cooperatives sell grapes every year, and as long as they are lucky, they can be bought by chance.
"Yes, the vine. I planted a few seeds the year before last. I thought they wouldn't germinate, but they actually grew out. I just don't know if they will bear fruit."
Although Xu Qian said so, what she thought in her heart was that if it didn't bear fruit, she would let it bear fruit. After all, it can still be grafted!As long as the saplings can grow well.
"Then I'll plant it next to the vegetable garden and let its vines climb up the hillside, or I can build a frame."
"Success, look at the species."
"By the way, what is this daughter-in-law?"
"It's figs."
"Is this a fig? I've heard of this fruit before, but I haven't eaten it. So it looks like this."
Zhou Wenjun looked at the leaves of the fig, imagining where they would bear fruit, and after observing for a long time, he couldn't figure out where it would bear fruit.
"It will grow a small pimple from the leaf, and then the pimple will grow bigger and bigger, and it can be eaten when it turns red. I have eaten it twice before, and it tastes very sweet."
"is it?"
Zhou Wenjun was very interested in planting fruit trees for his wife. With so many fruit trees planted, he could fully imagine that in a few years the yard would be full of fruit fragrance.
Too bad he can't come back often.
Thinking of this, he sighed lightly, seeing that the end of the year was approaching.As soon as the new year is over, he will leave again on the seventh day of the lunar new year. I am afraid that he will not be able to return until next year.
He never found it difficult to leave home before, but now he is really greedy for the taste of home, and he is unwilling to leave his wife and children to go far away.
However, no matter how reluctant he is, he must leave.How can the sons live without earning money?
Furthermore, after all, he is a man with his own ideals, and he still wants to realize his ambitions.
After the husband and wife finished planting the fruit trees, the sky was getting dark.Xu Qian cooked noodles by the light of the oil lamp, and the family ate noodles under the dim light of the oil lamp.
A gust of wind blew by, the flames were blown and shaken, and the shadow under the oil lamp also swayed.
As the light of the oil lamp in the house gradually dimmed, Xu Qian's family gradually fell asleep.
……
Because the New Year is coming soon, Xu Qian is also starting to prepare the New Year's goods, preparing for the New Year's family to eat.
Five catties of pork are prepared.I bought two chickens and ducks in the village, and there are also bacon and sausages at home.
A few children love to eat desserts and snacks, so Xu Qian kneaded a small bowl of white noodles, planning to make some small twists.
Xiaoqian Xu Qian made two flavors, one is sweet with honey, and the other is five-spice and salty.
After the twist is crispy, fry it crispy in the oil pan, put it in a small Shau Kei to drain the oil, and then wrap it in oil paper.
Although the sealing of oil paper is not good.It is easy to get damp when wrapped in oil paper, but it is no problem to put it for two or three days.
The little guys in her family are like little mice, they will come back after a while to touch two twists and eat them, and a small twist of Shau Kei will be eaten within a few days.
"Sanba, you have already picked up twisted doughnuts five times. This time, you can't eat it. It's dinner soon. You eat so much twisted twisted doughnuts, do you want to have lunch?"
Xu Qian was afraid that he would not be able to digest the twist after eating too much, so when Sanwa stretched out her small claws and stood on tiptoe, ready to continue taking twist, she put away the twist.
"Mom, I don't know how to eat. I gave Gangdan a few twists, and they were gone when I got them."
