Chapter 229 The River-Suppressing Turtle(2/2)
, so we can collect it in two or three years."
"Then you are lucky, you just happened to catch a good price. There will be more people planting next year, so the price may drop."
"Yeah, but it's hard to say."
"How's the grapefruit harvest going? I see there are still fruits hanging underneath."
"Grapefruits are okay. The ones at the bottom are late-ripening ones. Dad originally planned to wait until he finished picking the oranges and pick the ones at the bottom for you in a few days. You just happened to come over and take them back to eat after you leave.
.”
"Then it's good to be in love. It's better to come early than to come by chance."
I heard that pregnant women should eat more fruits, so I just brought some more grapefruits back for my wife to eat slowly, and forget about the oranges? I heard that eating too many oranges will turn yellow! They will also get angry! They will cause toothache!
Ye Yaodong walked up the mountain and said hello to his two sisters-in-law and brother-in-law. He also took out a sack and shook it out, then found a tree that he hadn't picked yet and plucked it first.
"A Dong, that one is a bitter orange. Don't pick it yet. Pick the oranges first. Oranges are valuable. You can wait two days before picking the bitter oranges."
Ye Yaodong took a closer look, and saw that the top of the head was a bit pointed, and the skin was still a little green. It was a bitter tangerine. It can be eaten cold. You can pick some back in two days!
He wandered to the side again, and then started picking after he recognized the oranges.
These orange trees have only been planted for two or three years. They are not big and short, making them easy to pick. You don’t have to climb around, which is much easier than persimmon trees.
While picking it, I peeled one and ate it. In an instant, my eyes narrowed to a slit, and my facial features were wrinkled. They were a bit sour and not tasty. They were not as sweet as oranges would be a few decades later.
But the silly son down there ate with gusto and kept shouting how delicious it was!
He even clamored to feed the bastard...
"You guys are not allowed to be naughty. Don't play them to death. Work quickly. Don't be lazy. You can play again when you get back."
The children immediately fell silent and played reluctantly for a while. They had to continue working when their mother called someone.
"Cousin, you have to watch them carefully and don't let them crawl away."
Ye Chenghu sat on the ground with a bunch of oranges next to him, and nodded happily, "Don't worry, I'll make a circle with oranges to make sure they don't run away."
The children then went to work with confidence.
