Chapter 620 620. Explosion in August
During this period of time, there was land reclamation in the back of the mountain, and it happened that this piece of land was just a small road away from the tea garden and chestnut garden, so the excavator guy simply walked away in the shade.
No matter how remote the mountain is, there is always something edible, and he can always get some during this time.
At the beginning, I dug out the roots of the tree, and in the morning I dug out more than a dozen big, fat, white bugs - these things are delicious when roasted! Also very nutritious!
However, during this period of time, he ate food from Song Tan's family every day and became very naughty. After thinking about it, he brought it over to Dabao and Erbao.
After all, this was not the first time he had worked for the Song Tan family. Qiao Qiao brought it over and pointed it out, and Dabao and Erbao were willing to eat what he brought.
The first time I saw this thing, Dabao and Erbao were not willing to eat it. After smelling it, they lay down without interest.
Sun Ziqiang actually felt distressed if he didn’t eat it, so he lit a fire and grilled it with sticks of branches!
While sighing: "You guys really don't know how to eat! When I was a child, I didn't even get to eat at home."
Not to mention, once it was roasted, the aroma was so fragrant that both dogs were willing to eat it.
Since then, everyone has gradually become familiar with each other.
For example, two days ago, Sun Ziqiang brought some Duluguai dates from the mountains.
Although it had a slightly astringent taste, the overall taste was still sweet. The two dogs had nothing to do and ate them up while playing.
So today, after listening to Sun Ziqiang's call, Dabao Erbao let out a "woof", decisively opened the door covered by the golden cherry vines and ran out.
Looking at this, Zhou Tianyu subconsciously took two steps back:
“Damn it! You can really come out!”
Sun Zhiqiang put down his clothes, and several strange lavender fruits with open mouths inside rolled down and fell on the grass.
Dabao and Erbao sniffed around curiously, but refused to speak, which made Sun Ziqiang depressed:
“My ancestors! How can I still poison you if I feed you every day? You want me to serve you, and you want me to test the poison... Come on, come on, let me eat for you to see!”
As soon as he said this, Dabao stretched out his paw to pull one out. Sun Ziqiang was not picky. He picked up the thing from the grass and broke it with a little force. The thick lavender skin was covered along the opened mouth. Peel it open to reveal the soft white flesh about a finger long inside.
The whole fruit looks like a big purple dumpling. When you break it open and look at the flesh, it looks like a banana.
The reason why it is called August Explosion is because in July and August, the ripe fruit will crack a crack in the middle and slowly open like a river clam.
So it’s called that in the local area.
…
“Oops!” Tian Tian said in surprise: “It’s August! I haven’t seen it in many years.”
Sun Ziqiang pointed to the ones on the ground: "Eat whatever you want, I just pulled them off the vine."
Zhou Tianyu didn’t say anything when he saw that Tian Tian had already squatted down and picked one with a darker purple color - it was more mature.
He also said: "I was watching videos a while ago and saw the August fried fruit that someone grew at home. The fruit was longer and bigger than this one, with a beautiful purple color and a thinner skin."
Unlike the ones they have in their hands, the entire fruit is only a dozen centimeters long, like a large, overly plump dumpling. But the color is uneven, with white, yellow and purple interlaced on the thick outer skin, and the pulp is obviously smaller than in the video.
“I watched it too!”
Sun Ziqiang got excited: "I heard that those are scientifically bred and improved varieties. They are of better quality than those that grow randomly in the mountains and fields. They are quite expensive to sell."
That's right... He couldn't figure it out, what's so good about this thing?
In their childhood, August bombings were certainly popular, but weren’t the conditions and transportation at that time not good?
On such a hot summer day, there is basically no other fruit except watermelon, so naturally I want to eat something fresh.
But now we can afford to eat all kinds of fruits, and the flesh of this overripe August fried fruit is glutinous and sticky. Every bite is full of seeds, and you have to vomit them one by one. I was busy with my mouth, but I didn’t actually eat much. It was quite sweet, so it really wasn’t so expensive!
As Sun Ziqiang spoke, he enthusiastically picked one and gave it to Zhou Tianyu:
Zhou Tianyu subconsciously took it and then explained: "We are not yet..."
“Oh,” Sun Ziqiang looked at Tian Tian and then at Zhou Tianyu: “That’s okay, I’m just a guest from afar, so it’s not worth it!”
At this time, Dabao snorted and was not happy anymore.
I brought seven or eight of them in total. It was for Sun Ziqiang to test the poison, but they didn’t eat them all. Now there are obviously a few missing!
"Ha ha ha ha…"
Sun Ziqiang laughed and touched the heads of Dabao and Erbao. Then he finished the remaining bite in two or three bites, and then broke off the remaining fruits for them:
“Break them apart and go into the garden. If you want to eat, eat another one. We’ll have lunch later.”
As soon as these words were said, the two treasures seemed to understand them, and they went into the garden with the words in their mouths.
Dabao, on the other hand, was all black, shiny and smooth, with strong muscles. He had a piece of fruit in his mouth. When he walked up to Zhou Tianyu, he lowered his voice and said "woo", and then flicked his tail, obviously looking down on him.
Zhou Tianyu: ...It’s not like he’s being petty, he feels like this dog is discriminating against him!
Sure enough, Sun Ziqiang had already asked him:
“What did you do? Why does Dabao and Erbao dislike you so much?”
With Tian Tian beside him, Zhou Tianyu was too embarrassed to lie, so he hesitated at this moment:
“That’s not me...I was standing there talking, seeing that the chestnut was growing very well, and I wanted to break off a branch and try it.”
“Ouch!”
Sun Ziqiang shouted exaggeratedly and looked at him:
“Why do you think so?! There are so many chestnut trees here that no one cares about, so you’re targeting Song Tan’s family?”
“They paid a lot of money to use a fence to pull me there, and they even kept two dogs to keep an eye on me. Don’t you want to think about why?”
“Let me tell you, the chestnuts haven’t grown yet, but when they do, the price will definitely not be less than 20 per kilogram! If you just break off one branch, three or five chestnut bags will cost dozens of yuan!”
Zhou Tianyu: ...why are his things so expensive?
He was dejected: "I, didn't I think that much?"
Tian Tian's eyes lit up, and she quickly asked: "Is it really that expensive? Is it easy to sell?"
Sun Ziqiang saw that she was a girl, so he snorted, and finally answered:
“I’ll just give you a random price. It must be more than twenty yuan. I heard that several bosses have set it.”
“What’s wrong, do you want to buy it?”
“I don’t buy it.”
Tian Tian turned around and looked at the lush chestnut tree, then took out her mobile phone:
“Brother, could you please leave me Boss Song’s phone number? I have something to ask her.”
Sun Ziqiang thought to himself: Why don’t you ask Zhou Tianyu?
They both went for a walk in the mountains. They are boyfriend and girlfriend, right?
But on second thought, this guy named Zhou is dishonest. He even wanted to use Song Tan's things to coax girls - huh, shameless!
He simply took the phone and clicked:
“Okay, here’s my mobile phone number. Call it later and I’ll save it. I’ll ask Song Tan when I get back and I’ll get back to you.”
Good night!
I’ll put the picture of the August fried food in my post later. It’s very beautiful, but it’s really not that delicious. I personally think you can try the jujube, it has a unique taste.
As for the bugs, I won’t show pictures, but when I was a kid, I used to dig bamboo roots, and there were them in the roots of big trees. My uncle roasted one for me, and it was really fragrant (I don’t dare to eat it now, hahaha).
