Chapter 880
Father Huzi led a few people around the orchard, passed by some fruit trees, picked all the ripe fruits, and they came to the foot of the mountain on the other side.

There is a pond here, and several millet banana trees are planted beside the pond.

There are two or three millet bananas on a banana tree that are already ripe.

Father Huzi pointed to a bunch of millet bananas on the millet banana tree and said, "This is pink banana. It can be chopped down. Now that the weather is hot, you can eat it after covering it for two days."

Xiao'er glanced at the pink banana on the banana tree. It turned out to be millet banana. It should be called differently in different places.

"Although pink bananas are not as sweet as bananas, their flesh is refreshing, with a faint aroma, sweet but not greasy, and not as cold as bananas. I planted these bananas from the seeds I got from a person from Nangong Kingdom. Except for my family who has pink bananas, no one else has them around here. It's a pity that there are no ripe pink bananas at home, otherwise you can pay for it now.

But it doesn't matter, take this bunch of pink bananas with you when you go back!Cover it well before eating. After he finished speaking, he touched a hatchet under the weed pile beside the pink banana tree, and directly chopped down the whole banana tree.

This pink banana, because it is the only one in his family, every time it is sold in the county, many people will rush to buy it.

A bunch of pink bananas generally has seven or eight layers, and some have ten layers. A bunch of thirty or forty catties can be sold for ten yuan per catty.

He planned to plant a row of banana trees around the entire pond, so that if two or three banana trees bear fruit in a month, he could sell them for a tael of silver.

"Uncle, why did you cut down the whole banana tree?!" Zhao Yong didn't know what he was doing.

"It's useless if you don't cut it down, the banana tree only bears fruit once, and each time it only bears one bunch." Huzipai explained.

"It's hard to grow big, isn't it too bad to only bear fruit once?!" Zhao Yong frowned.

"No, planting pink bananas is relatively easy, just add some fertilizer, and pink banana trees grow faster. Look, there are several small pink banana trees growing next to this big pink banana tree. When they grow up, they can bear fruit. In the past, people in the village were not good at growing bananas. Later, the government posted a notice, and I realized that it is better to plant banana trees near water. Now that the weather is so hot, these banana trees are still vigorous Vibrant!"

"Because bananas like hot and humid climates, they grow more vigorously in deep, loose, and well-drained soil. The soil near ponds and rivers has a lot of water. Even if the weather is dry, as long as there is water in the pond , and don’t need to irrigate, how convenient!” Xiao’er briefly explained.

In fact, the real reason is that no matter banana, plantain or pink banana, their leaves are very wide, and the transpiration effect is strong when the leaves are wide, while the roots of banana trees are shallow and weak in water utilization. When the weather is good, the sun is strong, and the soil is wet Without enough water, the banana tree will wither.

The appearance of the banana tree determines that it likes humidity and avoids drought. Bananas require a lot of water during the growth and development period, so planting them by the river or pond is the most convenient!

If a large number of plants are planted far away from the water source, and there is no pump to irrigate, relying on people's shoulders to carry water alone may not yield a good harvest!

Daddy Huzi carried a large basket of fruit in one hand and twisted the bunch of pink bananas in the other, and continued walking.

Seeing this, Zhao Yong took the initiative to help him pick up the bunch of pink bananas.

A few people walked to Huzi's house, Xiao'er never imagined that she saw a strawberry at the foot of the mountain here!
No wonder Huzi said that his father is very good at growing fruits!This is the rhythm of planting all the fruits that can be planted!
Daddy Huzi stopped again and picked all the overripe strawberries.

It’s just that they didn’t grow much, and only picked more than 20 strawberries in total.

After the field trip, Xiao'er was quite satisfied with Huzi's father. Seeing that the orchard is well-maintained, it is remarkable that almost every available place has been utilized.

"Uncle, I actually came to visit after hearing Huzi say that you are very good at growing fruits." Xiao'er said at this time.

"What's the matter? Do you want to grow fruit trees too? What kind of fruit do you want to grow? I will teach you everything I know."

The kindness of dripping water is reciprocated by the spring. They saved Hu Zi's life and are the great benefactors of their family.

If they want to learn how to grow fruit, he will definitely teach them all.

"No, I have a fruit from overseas, and I want someone to plant it in large quantities."

"What fruit?"

"Kirin fruit."

Huzi's father wanted to ask more questions, but Huzi hurried over: "Father! Hurry up! Go home! Leopard brought his grandparents to the house to grab things!"

"What! Why are they here again!" Huzi's father was a little anxious when he heard this. The things that came were taken away, what did they bring to entertain them!

Xiao'er and Shangguan Xuanyi glanced at each other, then followed.

The path was bumpy, and Huzi's father's legs and feet were inconvenient. He walked too fast and fell down suddenly. His injured leg was pressed on a sharp stone, and he gasped in pain.

The water in the basket rolled all over the ground.

Jing Rui quickly stepped forward to help him up: "Uncle, be careful, don't worry, the plums and willows are at home, everything will be fine."

"Zhao Yong, hurry back and see what happened!" Xiao'er squatted down with Shangguan Xuanyi after ordering, and picked up the fruit on the ground back into the basket.

Jing Rui helped Hu Zida up, Hu Zipa grasped his injured leg with both hands, his facial features were all wrinkled together, it was obviously in excruciating pain.

"Father, are you alright? Does it hurt?" Seeing his father hugging his knees, Hu Zi couldn't help but worry on his face.

After Huzi's father fell, his lame leg became even more painful, and now he couldn't even take a step.

Seeing this, Jing Rui said, "Daddy Tiger, I'll carry you back."

Huzi's father didn't try to be brave either, he was in so much pain that he couldn't walk anymore, if he forced to walk, he might be hurt more: "Thank you, brother Shen."

Although Jing Rui is dressed as a scholar, he has practiced martial arts for many years, so he doesn't look weak at all, and he was able to save his son in the rushing river. Hu Zi's father never thought that Jing Rui would be unable to bear himself.

He lay on Jing Rui's back, and Jing Rui easily picked him up and walked steadily towards his house.

Shangguan Xuanyi held the basket of fruit in one hand and Xiao'er in the other, reminding him to pay attention to his feet, and walked back behind them.

"Brother Shen has practiced martial arts, right?" Huzi's father asked enviously. He also wanted to learn martial arts when he was a child, and imagined that he would be a general when he grew up.

It's just that he didn't expect that he did go to be a soldier, went to the battlefield, and when he came back with a leg injury, his parents took away all his compensation money, and then they disliked their family for eating and not working, so they drove them away. Go out of the house, cleanse yourself and leave the house.
