"Aunt, sister Xueer found a sweet fruit. I asked Xiaofen to fill a bucket first and go back to get the guy. We can have fruit for the new year this year."
Chen Honglian was also a little surprised: "really?"
In previous years, there were some dry new year goods. Only when pigs were killed during the new year, could each family have pork to eat.
This year, we can eat meat on weekdays. Needless to say, there are so many fruits to eat during the new year.
You know, it's the style of city people to eat fruit at home during the new year.
It's foreign.
After all, their village has a lot of food, rice and vegetables, but there are no fruit trees.
The most common fruit may be apple, and the appearance is not good and the taste is not very sweet.
Therefore, in Donglin village, apples sell very cheaply, and several will be added in the new year. If there is such sweet fruit, it is a good thing!
"Of course it's true!" Xue Qin said with a smile, "sister Xueer is a little lucky star. Every time we go out with her, something good happens. Sister Xueer told us about the sweet cherry last time!"
Chen Honglian recalled that she still remembered the taste of the cherry, but last time Xiao Xueer said that the cherry tree would not bloom until spring.
So I eat it once a year.
"OK, aunt, take these two buckets of water back first. Take Xueer and Xiaowan and stay here for a while. I'll go home and get the guy!" Chen Honglian is also happy.
Who would be unhappy, but she still knows about it. She can't tell the neighbors for the time being, otherwise everyone knows that the strawberries can be eaten, and they won't rush up yet?
"OK."
Xue Qin looked at his two younger sisters and stayed away from the river. After all, a hole had been cut in the ice. What if the two younger sisters accidentally fell in?
Xue Xiaowan was a little curious: "brother, isn't it a big cleaning today? Why everyone went home."
Xue Qin ordered the tip of Xue Xiaowan's nose: "aunt and second brother have gone back to get the guy. We have fruit to eat this year's new year."
"Really?"
Xue Xiaowan's eyes are bright. As expected, children can't refuse sweet things.
Xue Xueer ate several times in the snow. She saw Xue Qin coming with Xue Xiaowan, picked another strawberry and ran quickly.
"Third sister, third sister, try this quickly. It's sweet!"
Looking at the strawberries handed by Xue Xueer, Xue Xiaowan took them and put them in her mouth: "thank you, sister Xueer!"
This fruit is really sweet, sweeter than the apples she has eaten before.
Sure enough, follow sister xue'er. It's delicious.
Xue Xueer was also happy. Xue Xiaowan really believed her at any time. She didn't ask what it was, so she took it up and put it in her mouth.
"There are many more here. When the second brother and aunt bring the things, we can take all the strawberries back."
Xue Xiaowan nodded.
Xue Qin raised a question: "since the strawberries grow in the field, can we take the vines back together?"
Xue Xueer shook her head: "stay here and there will be new strawberries next year. If we want to plant strawberries, we only need to take the small seeds on the strawberries."
Xue Xueer pointed to the small black spots on it. These are seeds that can grow strawberry vines.
Xue Xiaowan began to worry: "adults say that there will be so many seeds on my head after eating seeds. Will there be so many strawberries on my head in the future?"
Xue Xueer wanted to laugh, but she held it back.
She wanted to be a child's innocence. She reached out and touched her head: "Oh! Does xiaoxueer eat more and grow strawberries on xiaoxueer's head?"
Xue Qin smiled stiffly, reached out and gently patted the hair tops of his two sisters: "if you all grow strawberries, the family won't worry about having no fruit to eat in the coming new year."
With that, the three brothers and sisters burst into laughter.
