Chapter 15 The popular fragrant fruit
"If you want to eat, pick it yourself. Just go on the edge of the cliff in Banana Valley. You can see it there." Zhang Chengchuan said.
"The cliff in Banana Valley? Why did you touch it? The old people in the village said they would not let them go there. Not to mention the cliff, there were many insects and snakes on the mountain. I heard that there were wild boars and leopards, etc.," Zhang Changjun frowned.
"Isn't it just that I didn't notice that I walked over there when I was chopping wood, and I happened to find such delicious fruits." Zhang Chengchuan looked like he didn't expect it.
"But this fruit is so delicious. I will talk to my father later and we will go up the mountain to pick it together." Zhang Changjun quickly finished eating the fragrant fruit. After thinking about it, he felt that he would tell his father and the elders in the village who were useful to speak.
After all, if Zhang Chengchuan picks so many things by himself, he will be said to be digging for socialist corners, but if the whole village picks them, it will be no longer possible.
"A Chuan, what are you carrying?"
"Achuan, where did you pick so many fruits?"
Along the way, not only Zhang Changjun discovered a large basket of fruits on his back, but everyone else in the village also saw it, especially the children followed Zhang Chengchuan even more happily.
Zhang Chengchuan took a few more, cut a sweet fruit with his hatchet and distributed it to the children following him.
"This is the fruit found by Achuan on the mountain, and it was found on the cliff of Banana Valley." Zhang Changjun helped explain.
"Is there so many fruits on the cliffs of Banana Valley? There are indeed few people going to go there on the cliffs of Banana Valley."
There has been no drought in recent years. Although life is still not easy, people rarely go to more dangerous places to find food. For the people of Yunhe Brigade, the cliffs of Banana Valley are dangerous places.
"There are about two acres of fruits. I have not picked many of them in this big basket, and there are still a lot of them. If I hadn't brought them back, I would have wanted to pick a little more." Zhang Chengchuan said.
"Is this true? Achuan, do you mean there are many such fruits?" The others were very moved when they looked at the children following Zhang Chengchuan eating with relish, and shouting that they were so sweet while eating.
Not to mention eating at home, even if you pick it and sell it, you can exchange it for a lot of money. Although there are many fruits in the south, wild fruits are different from carefully grown fruits. The most common ones here are wild fruits, and there are not many carefully grown fruits.
"Achuan, I'll go back and talk to my father first, and I'll go find the captain and the others later." Zhang Changjun put Chaihe in the yard of Zhang Chengchuan's house, took the few fragrant fruits he handed over and said with a smile.
"Well, if you want to pick fruits, you have to hurry up. I am worried that I might be eaten by the mountains in the future. Today I saw many birds there, and other fruit-eating animals have not arrived yet." Zhang Chengchuan said.
"Okay, I'll go and talk to the captain and the others."
The others looked at Zhang Changjun and Zhang Chengchuan again, thinking it would be better to pick it by themselves, so they stopped surrounding Zhang Chengchuan and followed Zhang Changjun to find the captain.
They didn’t know how to walk on the cliff in Bazaar Valley, and they didn’t need Zhang Chengchuan to lead the way, so they wouldn’t be stuck here.
"Are you back?" Chen Xiayue just saw a group of people coming to their house. Now she saw the crowd dispersing, so she hurried up to help Zhang Chengchuan.
"Achuan, what fruit did you pick?" Zhang Deping hurried back to help his son put down the big bamboo basket. He just heard the villagers say that his son had picked a big basket of fruits and came back quickly.
Anyway, the work is almost done now, so Zhang Deping didn't care about that little time. He told the captain and came back quickly.
"I was lucky enough to meet such a delicious fruit, so I picked it back." Zhang Chengchuan said with a smile, took one and handed it to his father and said, "Dad, it tastes very good. The pear tastes similar, but I think it is more delicious than pears."
Zhang Deping put the fruit on his clothes and then bit it on it. He was immediately amazed by the juiced fruit.
"It's delicious, it's indeed better than pears." Zhang Deping said with satisfaction. "For such a big basket, we can leave some of it for ourselves. The rest will be given to your elder sister. Tomorrow, you will also bring some for your father-in-law and the others when you take your daughter-in-law back home."
Originally, I rarely go back to my family after getting married these days, but isn’t it just that Zhang Chengchuan has picked so many fruits and returned? Tomorrow is just the day when he returns to his family for three days, so let the youngest son take his youngest daughter-in-law to his parents’ house together.
"Tomorrow you take your daughter-in-law back home, and I will ask your mother to take some of these fruits to your elder sister to see her." Zhang Deping said.
Zhang Chengchuan nodded. His elder sister also married into the town, and he had no say to his younger brother over the years. Zhang Chengchuan's brothers and sisters were very good to him, and even after getting married, they were still very nice to this younger brother.
Of course, Sister Zhang is good to Zhang Chengchuan but she has not crossed the bottom line of her in-laws. She can be a good person, and Zhang Chengchuan can be a good person, so Sister Zhang's in-laws has a good attitude towards Zhang Chengchuan and does not complain too much about Sister Zhang being a brother-supporting demon.
Liu Guiying also came back quickly. When Zhang Deping said that he would divide the fruits into one, keep them at home for a little food, and then divide them into two parts to send one to Sister Zhang's house, and leave one for Zhang Chengchuan and his wife to take them back when they return home, so he quickly helped.
"The boss's side is too far away, so these fruits should not be sent to him, a pity." When Liu Guiying was dividing the fruit, she sighed. The place where the eldest son served in the army was quite far from his hometown, so these fresh fruits could not be sent to him.
Liu Guiying felt a little sorry for her eldest son, and it was a pity to look at Xiangguo.
"You can boil the fruit into sauce, then put it in and send it to my elder brother. The jam can be stored for a longer time." Chen Xiayue said.
Although Liu Guiying likes to nag, she is quite good to her and does not have the temperament of other mother-in-law who wants to get rid of her daughter-in-law, so Chen Xiayue also hopes to get along better with her.
She is as close as a mother and daughter, and she just hopes to be a roommate with a better relationship. She just needs to not have too many conflicts between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. She is in the mood and energy to fight wits and courage with her mother-in-law.
"Build into jam? How much sugar does it cost?" Liu Guiying felt distressed, but when she thought of her eldest son in the distance, she wanted to make jam and send it to her.
