Chapter 653 Golden Hook Pear
Hearing this, Jiang Yichen's eyes lit up, but he couldn't help but confirm: "Sister-in-law... are you sure?"
Jiang Li smiled and nodded without any hesitation: "I won't lie to you about this kind of thing. Now, just think about it. If you really like your second uncle's uniform, then follow your second uncle decisively."
"Thank you, sister-in-law, I will seriously consider it."
Jiang Yichen looked extremely serious.
"But you have to remember that no matter what we, Lao Jiang, do, we must try our best to do it well and never desert halfway."
This is Jiang Li's encouragement to her nephew, and it is also her expectation.
"Sister-in-law, I remember."
Jiang Yichen nodded heavily.
About twenty minutes passed, and Jiang Li and his party reached the halfway point of the hillside.
"Sister-in-law, uncle, look over there, there is a jujube tree there!"
Suddenly, Jiang Yihong shouted excitedly.
"It's a jujube tree, sister-in-law. My third brother saw it right. It's indeed a jujube tree. I saw that the jujube trees on the tree are all ripe. Let's go over and pick more and take them home to eat with the whole family."
With a smile on his face, Jiang Yikai echoed his cousin Jiang Yihong and walked towards the jujube trees.
"Be careful."
Jiang Li warned, and Luo Yanqing followed closely behind the three nephews.
"It's a little bitter." Jiang Yikai picked a small jujube, then pinched some of the jujube and stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it. His face immediately changed slightly: "I thought it was sweet!"
"Guaizao is also called Jingouli. It tastes sweet with a little bit of bitterness. However, the bitterness is not difficult to accept." Jiang Lixiao looked at Jiang Yikai and said, "If you don't think it tastes good, then pick less and wait until In winter, these dates have been beaten by frost, and they taste much better than they do now.”
"My sister-in-law is right. The jujubes that have been beaten by winter frost taste better than those picked and eaten now." This was Jiang Yichen's voice.
Jiang Yikai asked: "How good is it?"
Jiang Yichen: "It's sweeter than now and no longer bitter."
Jiang Yikai blinked his eyes: "Is it true?"
"Of course it's true." Jiang Yichen responded.
"why?"
Jiang Yikai is like a curious baby now, which is actually not surprising. Although he is from the Jiang family, he has lived with his parents in the army since he was a child. Counting this time, he can count the number of times he has returned to his hometown in one slap. , to be more precise, three times in total.
Once was when I was two or three years old, once was three years ago, and now this time.
He had eaten jujubes before, but that was when he tasted some when he went back to his hometown when he was a child. Now he has no memory of it, so the young man naturally doesn't remember it.
"The frost can directly remove the bitterness from the dates."
Jiang Li gave an explanation.
"So that's it! Then let's pick less. After the frost in winter, we will see which one is lucky enough to find these jujube trees and pick them."
As he said this, a flash of pity flashed in Jiang Yikai's eyes.
Jiang Li took off a claw of jujube and handed it to Luo Yanqing: "Try it."
"good."
Luo Yanqing nodded, took it from Jiang Li's hand, pinched some and stuffed it into his mouth. After a moment, he said, "It is indeed a bit bitter, but the bitterness is just right."
"The taste is quite unique, isn't it?"
Jiang Li asked with a smile.
Luo Yanqing said "hmm", then lowered his eyes to look at the small-clawed jujube that Jiang Li gave him, and then looked at the jujube tree. He said with a smile: "This jujube is quite strange. The fruit is not bendy." Rules, kind of like chicken feet.”
"That's right, the ugly appearance is a good way to describe it, so the old people in our eight villages often call the guaizao the golden hook pear."
