Chapter 178 Fun
Strawberry Garden welcomed several waves of guests one after another.

Most of them came from the county seat. Some brought their children to experience the farm life like Miao Juan, and some young couples or little sisters came in groups.

A group of people shuttled through the strawberry garden with fruit baskets in their hands, feeling the joy of picking strawberries by hand.

"Dad, come here quickly, the strawberries here are so big and red."

"Mom, can this strawberry be picked?"

"The strawberries here grow really well, come here, let's take a selfie here..."

"Wow, here is a very ripe little strawberry, like a ruby, so pretty... Wait, don't pick it, I'll take a photo first."

"The strawberries here are sweet and delicious! Quickly take a good photo for me, and I will send it to Moments to check in."

There was laughter and laughter in the strawberry field, which was very lively.

Several little girls squatted among the fields, constantly looking for various angles to take pictures.

Grandpa Shen shook his head as he watched, and whispered to Shen Qiuqiu, "I see they have been playing there with their mobile phones for more than half an hour. They are here to pick strawberries, they are here to play..."

Shen Qiuqiu couldn't help laughing, "Grandpa, they are here to play, take pictures and check in, and then experience the fun of picking."

Grandpa Shen was very puzzled, "What's so fun about picking strawberries? Young people these days are so busy..."

Shen Qiuqiu patiently explained to him, "Just as rural people yearn for the life of city people, many city people now yearn for rural life in the countryside.

We farm and do farm work, looking forward to a good harvest in the field, in order to make a living;
People in the city sit in reinforced concrete offices every day, and they are also busy making a living, which is no easier than us.

City people come to our countryside more to relax and experience the joy of labor. "

"Oh..." The old man nodded half-understanding.

"Sister, look, I picked a lot of strawberries."

A little girl named Manman, with half a basket of strawberries in her hand, ran to Shen Qiuqiu with a smile and showed off.

Shen Qiuqiu bent down and helped her take off a small dead branch from her hair, and praised with a smile: "Well, it's really awesome."

The little girl smiled innocently, took a big and red strawberry from the basket and handed it to Shen Qiuqiu, "Give it to my sister."

"Thank you Manman." Shen Qiuqiu took it with a smile.

Miao Juan came over with two baskets of strawberries, and smiled at Shen Qiuqiu, "My family is full of strangers, and she doesn't talk to strangers easily, but she seems to like you very much."

Shen Qiuqiu patted Man Man's head, "I like Man Man very much too, I've never seen such a sensible and obedient little girl."

The two talked for a while, and Xu Lei also brought his son over.

They picked a total of four baskets of strawberries and weighed them on the scale. They weighed 14.9 catties, totaling 521.5 yuan.

Shen Qiuqiu gave them a change and received 520 yuan.

"Hahaha, that's a good number." Miao Juan smiled and scanned the QR code to pay.

Xu Lei next to him suddenly asked, "By the way, do you sell native chickens and eggs in your village?"

They are planning to visit the elderly in a while, and it is not appropriate to bring only strawberries. I heard that the native chicken has high nutritional value and is a good nourishing food.

Shen Qiuqiu smiled and nodded, "Yes, every household in our village raises chickens, and there are a lot of native chickens in my bamboo forest, and there should be a lot of native eggs."

Xu Lei immediately expressed that he wanted to buy some back.

There are still many people picking strawberries in the strawberry garden, and there should be some people coming soon, Shen Qiuqiu couldn't leave here, so he asked Grandpa Shen to take Xu Lei and the others to the house.

It's not far from Shen's small courtyard, and it takes only a few minutes to drive there.

Grandpa Shen took rhubarb and took Xu Lei to catch chickens in the bamboo forest.

"My chickens are all free-range in the bamboo forest. There are roosters, old hens, and tender hens. You can choose what you want."

Xu Lei nodded, and was a little puzzled, "Catch the chicken, why did you bring the dog?"

Grandpa Shen smiled, "You'll know in a while."

After a while, there was a sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping in the bamboo forest.

……

In the courtyard of the Shen family.

Grandma Shen poured a few glasses of water out to entertain Miao Juan and her daughter, and asked her how many free-range eggs she wanted.

Miao Juan thought for a while, "I want a hundred first."

Buy a hundred first and go back to taste the taste. If it tastes good, I will buy it later.

Grandma Shen took out a foam box, put a thick layer of straw inside, and then began to put eggs in it.

Put a layer of eggs and spread a layer of straw so that the eggs are not easy to break.

When entering the door, Miao Juan noticed that some spinach and leeks were planted in the vegetable field at the door, which were lush and green and growing gratifyingly.

So I couldn't help asking, "Ma'am, did you grow the spinach and leeks at the door?"

"Yes, we rural people grow our own vegetables." Grandma Shen nodded.

Miao Juan asked again, "Does your family sell this vegetable? If so, I'll buy some by the way, so that I won't have to buy vegetables when I go back."

Grandma Shen narrowed her eyes with a smile, "It's for sale, how much do you want? I'll pick it for you right away."

After saying that, he went to the utility room and took out a sickle, ready to cut leeks.

Miao Juan pulled the two children and followed.

Grandma Shen cut leeks, while Miao Juan led the children to pull spinach.

Manman and his elder brother squatted on the edge of the ridge, pulling out spinach one by one, their serious and hardworking little appearance is very cute.

Miao Juan saw that the leeks were growing well, and thought of the large number of people in her family, she wanted to buy more.

"Ma'am, you grow leeks really well, and they are so juicy; cut some more for me, and I'll take them home to make dumplings at night."

"Okay." Grandma Shen replied with a smile, and said, "You girl doll really knows how to eat. You can make dumplings with fresh leeks, and you will definitely lose your eyebrows."

The first crop of leeks in spring is the freshest, delicious and delicious. It is especially fragrant when used to make dumplings.

Miao Juan smiled, and when she looked up, she saw fat and tender Chinese toon buds sprouting from the bare tree trunk next to her.

Scrambled eggs with toon sprouts is also a rare spring-limited delicacy, just thinking about it makes people salivate.

There are surprises everywhere in the countryside, and there are delicious food everywhere.

"Ma'am, are the toon sprouts from your family too? Are you selling them or not?"

Grandma Shen shook her head and yelled into the yard, "Cunju, do you sell your toon buds?"

"Sell!" Wang Weidong's daughter-in-law responded, and then trotted out of the yard in a hurry.

"Girl, how much do you want? I'll pick it for you right now."

In the end, Miao Juan and his wife returned with a full load of rural local products in the trunk.

Half a catty of Chinese toon buds sold for more than 50 yuan.

Wang Weidong's wife put the money in her pocket, smiling from ear to ear.

"These city people, have you never seen anything in the market? When you come to our village, everything you see is novel, and you want to buy everything you see."
