Chapter 31 Taoyuan Mandarin

"There are still a lot of dried red dates at home now."

Ji Yi nodded. The eight-treasure porridge he ate this morning contained red dates from his own family.

It is very big, not inferior to the red dates from other places.

The taste and texture are both good.

The water and soil support each person, and the soil and climate of Taoyuan Village are quite suitable for growing fruit trees.

Taoyuan Village's peaches are famous in several nearby counties and cities.

Now that winter is turning to spring, many trees in the orchard have sprouted buds.

Orange trees and grapefruit trees are evergreen all year round, while jujube and loquat trees lose their leaves in autumn and are bare at this time.

Now that spring has arrived, the young leaves have begun to grow again.

"Dad, look, my feet can make sounds." The little glutinous rice stepped on the ground of the orchard, and the dead leaves made a crunching sound.

"Haha, I still remember that when I was your age, there were a group of little kids in the village, all of the same age, who came here to play a hide-and-seek game. One of them found a pile of dead branches and leaves, got into it, and finally I fell asleep inside." Ji Yi remembered some embarrassing things that happened when he was a child.

"Then what? Then what?" Xiao Nuomi was extremely interested.

"Then the man woke up and heard a group of people crying outside. When he went out to look, he found that it was the other people who were crying and looking for him." Lin Yi spread his hands, and there was no one left.

At that time, everyone thought that the man had been eaten by a tiger.

Of course, when I grow up, I just find it funny.

Where is the tiger in Taoyuan Village?

Historically, the South China tiger's activity range was near Taoyuan Village.

But now all wild South China tigers are extinct.

Afterwards, when we went back, everyone was given a meal of fried meat with sticks.

"Dad, what is fried meat on a stick?" Xiao Nuomi asked in confusion.

"It's just a bamboo stick for spanking." Ji Yi saw a thumb-thick stick on the ground, held it in his hand, and made a gesture.

"It's such a thick stick."

Xiao Nuomi was shocked.

"Dad, I don't want to eat fried meat on a stick."

"You didn't make any mistakes. How could you eat fried meat on a stick?" Lin Yili said happily.

"If you make a mistake, you can't spank your butt with such a thick stick. It will hurt." Xiao Nuomi shook her head with a serious expression.

"Today's education method is different from before. When I was a child, most parents believed in stick education. It is called a stick that produces a filial son, and the house is not beaten for three days." Lin Yi held the stick in his hand. With a wave of his hand, he broke a few new shoots of grass.

He was beaten a lot when he was little.

Boys are more naughty.

By the time of Xiao Nuomi's generation, there were basically one or two children in every household, and they were reluctant to spank them. They were afraid of melting them when they were held in their mouths, and they were afraid of falling when they were held in their hands.

If parents have upright views on education, their children will be fine.

The naughty children raised by parents with unhealthy views can really make people angry to death.

"By the way, Brother Yi, in the past few years in Taoyuan Village, during the mask meeting, some professors and experts from the Provincial Agricultural University came here to conduct research, and then set up a laboratory here, using several kinds of citrus, grafting and cultivating a kind of The new citrus tree was named Taoyuan tangerine. It bore fruit last year, but no one cared about the fruit. It is still hanging on the tree." Shen Yue also arrived at the orchard and remembered this.

On weekdays, the villagers in Taoyuan Village all hear it as a joke.

"Really? How come no one cares?" Ji Yi was a little confused.

Could it be that it’s not delicious?

"The water content is quite high, but the sweetness is not enough. The village chief asked the expert last year, and the expert said that maybe it is because the fruit tree grows fruit in the first year, so it may not taste good, and it will be better in the next few years. "Shen Yue said.At that time, because they could not sell it, each villager in the village was given a large basket.

Many families were devastated.

There are some Taoyuan Mandarin oranges left, which no one has picked and are hanging on the trees.

Citrus is the same as grapefruit. If you don't pick it and there are no frosts and freezes in winter, it will hang until next year.

Ji Yi soon saw a few acres of land not far away. Unlike other orchards, there were fruit trees hanging on the treetops, including yellow and orange Taoyuan Mandarin oranges.

From a distance, it looks pretty good.

"Brother Yi, I'll pick one for you to try." Shen Yue walked towards the citrus orchard.

"Mom, that one isn't sweet and doesn't taste good." Xiao Nuomi was a little confused as to why her mother would pick that one.

"Your dad hasn't eaten it yet. I'll pick it for him to try." Shen Yue smiled slightly.

"Then I'll pick it too." Xiao Nuomi also followed.

Dahuang sneezed behind him.

Nowadays, the peach blossoms are blooming, and some dogs, like people, also suffer from pollen allergy symptoms.

Therefore, Xiao Nuomi found that in spring, Dahuang kept sneezing.

But, there is no way to solve this problem.

As long as Rhubarb is in Taoyuan Village, peach blossoms will bloom everywhere.

You can't hide. Even if you stay at home, you can still smell the fragrance of peach blossoms.

However, it was not serious, so no one took it seriously.

"Mom, why do we call these oranges Taoyuan Mandarin?" Xiao Nuomi quickly picked a Taoyuan Mandarin with Shen Yue and came back.

"You really asked me about this, Brother Yi, do you know?" Shen Yue turned to Lin Yi for help.

"I know some, small glutinous rice, tangerines, tangerines, and oranges. These three most common fruits all have a unified name, that is, citrus fruits." Lin Yi said: "But, they are three different Breeds, just like dogs, there are corgis, golden retrievers, and teddy dogs, but they are all dogs, just different breeds."

Lin Yi's explanation was very easy to understand, and Xiao Nuomi suddenly understood.

So this is ah.

In reality, there are many people who can't tell the difference between these three kinds of fruits. They look similar, are all sweet, and taste similar in taste and texture, but their names are indeed varied.

"Oranges are generally small in size, and their peels are also very thin and easy to peel. For example, tangerines, sugar oranges, and tangerines are obtained by crossing tangerines with other citrus such as sweet oranges. The fruit has a thick skin and is not as easy to peel as oranges. .”

Ji Yi said and peeled off the Taoyuan Mandarin orange in his hand.

Juice overflowing with the aroma of citrus.

The skin is indeed a bit thick.

Ji Yi and Shen Yue couldn't help but swallowed when they smelled the smell.

"This looks pretty good. It can be sold cheaper. I believe there will be a market. It would be a pity to rot in the ground." Lin Yi said.

Wogan oranges in fruit shops are quite expensive, usually costing more than 5 yuan.

Taoyuan mandarin oranges, if they cost ten yuan for seven or eight catties, there is no need to worry about there being no market.

However, Ji Yi just said that casually.

The market is not as simple as he said.

"Last year, some villagers also said this. The price was lower and the price was still high. However, there were also many people who objected. They thought that the low price this year would give Taoyuan Mandarin oranges a low price in the future. For this The brand value of Taoyuan Mandarin has been severely damaged. To put it simply, it means that it will no longer be able to sell it at a high price in the future." Shen Yue said.
