Chapter 745. Robbing Caterpillars
"Aunt! Aunt!"
Luo Qingcai rushed into the old Luo's house, shouting and holding a small bamboo basket.
At this time, not long after work in the morning, Dad Luo went to the fields on the mountain.
Luo Yihang is in the office.
Only Luo's mother is left at home.
And, when Xiao Xiaoman heard the sound, he ran out with his tail up.
The little cat was blocking the door, staring at Luo Qingcai with his head tilted and the small basket in his hand.
The meaning is obvious: highway robbery is coming.
If you want to pass through here, you have to leave some money for the passage.
Luo Qingcai quickly raised the small basket above his head and waved his other hand, "It's not meat, you won't eat it."
Xiao Xiaoman didn't believe it, so he jumped up lightly, stood up, put his front paws on Luo Qingcai's chest, stretched his neck and meowed as he reached up.
Ugh.
There was really nothing he could do about it, so Luo Qingcai had to put the basket down and put it in front of Xiao Xiaoman to let him see, "You still don't believe me, caterpillar, white caterpillar, go eat it."
Xiao Xiaoman poked his head into the basket and sniffed it, then meowed with a look of disgust, jumped back to the ground, and walked away wagging his tail.
"You little cat, what's with that expression on your face?" Luo Shaoan nagged Xiao Xiaoman by the tail.
In exchange for a fierce "Ha~~"
"You kid, why are you scaring it with a caterpillar?" Luo's mother heard the voice and came out of the house to protect her good baby.
Luo Qingcai: So love will disappear, right?
How is that possible? It’s because I now treat the three of them as adults, not children anymore.
Luo Qingcai was still closest to Luo Ma. When he saw the old lady coming out, he rushed over to show his treasure, "How can I really scare it with a caterpillar? I'm not a child. Look, the mulberries in our garden are ripe. Do they look like caterpillars?"
Mother Luo looked down and saw that the small basket was covered with a layer of mulberry leaves at the bottom, and on top of it were white and gold mulberries as long as fingers.
The color is very beautiful, white with a hint of yellow, and a slightly translucent texture, like agate.
It is densely packed with small particles.
"It's finally cooked." Luo's mother was happy and picked up one to have a look. "It really looks like a caterpillar."
Then he asked, "Did you guys try it? How was it?"
Luo Qingcai nodded repeatedly, "Everyone who has tasted it in the orchard has tasted it. It's delicious. It's so delicious!"
Unable to express himself in Mandarin, he spoke in dialect.
"Are they mostly cooked?" Luo's mother asked again.
Only the little kids in the orchard tasted them. There were only a few in the small basket, so there shouldn't be many.
Luo Qingcai shook his head. "Not many. Only the ones facing the sun are ripe. There are only one or two on each tree. Guaiye said this is just the beginning. There will be more and more in the future."
After answering, seeing that Luo Ma was still asking questions, Luo Qingcai became anxious, "Aunt, please try it. I picked it from a garden. It's clean and fragrant and sweet."
This child is so attentive.
Luo's mother felt sweet even before she ate it, and was smiling from ear to ear.
"Okay." Luo's mother responded with a smile, pinching a long mulberry and putting it under her nose, "Oh, it smells so good."
As for the golden mulberry, the fragrance comes first. Its characteristic is the rich fruity aroma, the sweet and strong one.
As for the milky aroma when it was planted, Luo Ma didn’t smell it. I’m afraid it was covered by the greasy sweetness.
Then, under Luo Qingcai's expectant gaze, Luo Ma slurped the long piece of fragrant golden mulberry into her mouth.
The fruit is too long, and it would not look elegant to eat it in one bite. Luo's mother suddenly had an idea and decided to eat it in one gulp like eating noodles.
It's quite fun.
Put the long fruit into your mouth, roll it with your tongue, and press it against the roof of your mouth to gently crush it.
The small grains on the mulberries burst one by one, and the pulp and juice fill the mouth.
Then bite it gently and refuse.
The taste is soft and very delicate, you can't feel the peel or pulp fiber at all, even the stem in the middle is soft. It has a lot of water, but it's not the kind that can flow out and splash juice, it feels a bit like jelly.
As for the taste, it’s sweet, pure sweet, especially sweet, without a trace of sourness.
And it is different from the sweetness of white sugar. It has the fresh sweetness unique to fruit, with obvious and layered fruity flavor.
Mother Luo chewed and tasted the fruit repeatedly, then swallowed it reluctantly.
Then I found that there was still a taste in my mouth, leaving a hint of fruity and sweet aftertaste that lingered for a long time.
Curiously, he put his hand under his nose and exhaled.
Wow, even your breath smells sweet.
"Cai Wa is really great. He grows such good fruits." After eating a golden mulberry, Luo's mother started by praising Luo Qingcai.
I felt a little embarrassed to be praised by Luo Qingcai, "The boss selected good varieties, and Guaiye taught me well. I don't have much to complain about. Auntie, please eat, eat."
Luo's mother smiled and picked up the basket, "Take it to the office so that everyone can have a taste."
Luo Qingcai stretched out his hand and pushed Luo Ma into the house. "I can't taste all of these. They are all yours. Li Yongyun and the others sent them to the office. I won't forget them..."
-
Li Yongyun and a few others in the office delivered it.
It’s just a gift for Zhang Feng.
Whoever raises the child is worried about him.
Then when Li Yongyun and his friends arrived at the office, they ran into Xiao Zhao.
The little lamb that came to the door ran into the hands of the tigress. What good can come of it?
After a few words of praise, the four baskets in Li Yongyun's hands fell into Xiao Zhao's hands.
The little kids went back to the orchard happily.
As soon as these people turned around, Xiao Zhao immediately picked up a fragrant golden mulberry.
He shook it in his hand and whispered, "It looks like a caterpillar."
He threw it into his mouth with a look of disgust.
Immediately, his eyes lit up, and then brightened and brightened again.
After a while, she knocked on the door and entered the meeting room carrying a small basket.
Luo Yihang, Zhang Feng, Qiang Wa, and Luo Minghai were in the conference room. The meeting had been going on since morning and had not yet ended.
When Xiao Zhao came in, Luo Yihang was arranging the work.
"Uncle, Inner Mongolia is almost ready. You need to prepare 300 tons of earthworm soil within half a month. You can do it all at once or in two batches. It needs to be delivered before the end of August."
"Qiangwa, should I leave the transportation to you or Minghai?"
Qiang Wa patted his belly and waved his hands, "I can't do it anymore, leave it to Ming Hai..."
Just talking.
Xiao Zhao came in, carrying a basket, placed it on the conference table and pushed it in front of Zhang Feng, smiling: "Uncle, Li Yongyun and the others sent it here, saying that the mulberries are ready."
"Is it delicious?" Luo Yihang asked casually.
"It's okay." Xiao Zhao replied casually.
After answering the question, he realized what was happening and immediately tried to make up for it, "I didn't eat it secretly. It smelled delicious."
Alas, the more you wipe it, the darker it gets.
Qiangwa was like a Maitreya Buddha, happily pointing at Xiao Zhao and saying, "Wipe it off, there are two purple streaks on your face."
Xiao Zhao hurriedly wiped his face, with his hands raised up, before he realized that the mulberry is white and does not dye.
"Boss Qiang, you can't do this!"
Scored twice.
Luo Yihang and Qiang Wa high-fived each other across the table.
These two bad boys have returned to their youthful days of cooperating and cheating others...
