Happy Farm Ranch

Chapter 105

"I will definitely bring you with me next time I go to the city. Well, hurry up and pick the dates right now, the family is busy with the autumn harvest." Su Mujian finally had a topic that caught Wang Yanni's attention. The time was finally not so embarrassing, and he was introduced to the work casually, so he picked the dates more neatly.

Wang Yanni's face was still red, but she promised to take her out to meet the world next time.

Thinking about it, I feel very happy in my heart. I imagined the colorful world outside based on the TV series I watched before, and the work in my hand naturally slowed down, and I didn't have time to care about what Su Mu was doing.

Taking advantage of the rare cleanliness, Su Mu seized the time to pack things in his own space.

There were a few jujube tree saplings as thick as a little finger not far in front of him. He looked left and right and saw no one around, and moved them abruptly to the open space with his consciousness.

The place where the saplings had grown before suddenly lost a small piece of land.

Fortunately, the roots of the young saplings are not too deep, and it is not easy to attract attention if a few are dug up.

In addition to jujube trees, Su Mu also paid special attention to wild jujube trees and black jujube trees.He still remembers that when he was a child, whenever there was a temple fair in the town, his grandfather would buy him a small piece of jujube noodles.The light brown, square jujube noodles are soft, with a tempting taste mixed with jujube, sour and paste.

After taking a bite, the whole cheek is sour, and even now recalling that special taste, sour water will flow in the mouth.

At that time, buying a piece of jujube noodles was already a pretty good snack.Su Mu still remembers that when he was a child, he often licked the sour jujube noodles with a slight sweetness, and was so satisfied that he couldn't think of leaving.At that time, I heard from my grandfather that to make this kind of cheap snack, it is actually to use the whole jujube to grind into fine noodles, and then press it into shape.

Now I think of the delicious food I ate when I was a child, and Su Mu couldn’t hold back anymore. I wish I could get some jujube back home. There is a stone mill in the village committee compound. Grind some jujube noodles by yourself. The taste must be super good. !

Just do what you say, and your hands are busy picking big red dates into your pockets.Su Mu has two things in one mind, and almost all of his attention is on the wild jujube trees around the jujube forest.

The jujube tree does not have high requirements on the soil quality, and it can grow in almost every corner.

The natural environment of Huatanao is mild and suitable for the growth of most plants, and the unmanaged hillsides naturally become the breeding grounds for wild jujube trees.

In addition to the thick jujube trees, clusters of jujube bushes can be seen from time to time in the forest.They are not tall, and the branches are not thick, but there are quite a lot of fruits hanging on them, and most of the branches are bent by the bright red.

People in the mountains are used to seeing wild sour dates, even children are not very interested in them, at most they pick a few and put them in their mouths as snacks.

The red sour jujube looks good, but in fact the flesh is thin and loose, and the taste is sour.The core occupies 70.00% of the whole fruit, so naturally it cannot be eaten as a serious fruit.Villagers often pick some to go home, dry them in the yard and soak them in water for drinking.

At this moment, the ripe red dates all over the mountains and plains are picked at will, and everyone is busy, how can they have time to care about the wild sour dates that can be seen everywhere by the roadside?

Therefore, the transfer of sumu was very smooth, and within a short time, a large pile of wild jujubes was piled up on the bluestone platform in the space.

"It's a jujube!"

With a loud yell, there were several voices echoing from far and near in the forest.

Although no one takes care of them, these jujube trees are growing very lushly.After all, there are only a few people who reach out and reach it directly. More big red dates that are as bright as agate are hanging high on the treetops. When you look up, you can see that the pieces are all attractive red, and the heavy dates are blown by the wind. But it is not easy to fall down.

Fortunately, the young guys brought long bamboo poles as jujube poles.

Hit the stick towards the thickest jujube gathering place on the high place, only to hear a crackling sound, and the jujubes with shiny peels fell to the ground with a clatter.

If you stand under a tree, your head and arms will be smashed from time to time, but no one will hide. Instead, they will quickly pick up the falling jujubes with both hands.

"Hey! There are so many dates! No wonder everyone likes to beat dates, so it's so fun!" It was the first time for Su Mu to participate in this kind of group activity, and he saw red dates crackling down in mid-air, and a group of girls and boys smashed them next to each other. They were all grinning, carrying bags and bamboo baskets each, picking one up faster than the other!

At first he wanted to hide, but later he was so infected by the atmosphere that he didn't care about the pain of being smashed, so he just picked up a big rosy date and put it in his bag.

"Brother Muzi, do you want to try to hit some poles? This thing is for prosperity and auspiciousness. You are building a farm and a pasture in the village this year. It's best to win a good fortune so that you can make a lot of money after the autumn harvest!" The young man who took the lead in beating dates smiled and handed the bamboo pole in his hand to Su Mu, "Pounding dates is not a technical job. Just do it like I did just now, try it!"

"It's my first time doing this job, why don't you try two poles." Su Mu looked up and saw that the big tree beside him was surrounded by clusters of big red dates, which made him feel itchy, so Take the bamboo pole and prepare to hit dates.

Holding the bamboo pole with both hands, aiming at a large cluster of red dates, Su Mu stepped back a little, and rushed towards the dates with all his might!

I thought there would be a crackling sound like just now, but I didn't expect that when the pole went down, only a few ripe red dates were knocked down, and the others were still hanging firmly in place.On the contrary, due to excessive force, Su Mu almost staggered and fell to the ground.

"It's not like that. Brother Muzi, look at how hard I am." Another guy who was in charge of beating dates hurried over to demonstrate.

He aimed at the red dates on the treetops, and hit the treetops with a bamboo pole, and without using too much force, the ripe red dates would fall to the ground with a bang; Ripe, slightly green dates.

"It turned out to be hitting on the treetops, I thought it was just hitting dates!" After observing carefully for a while, Su Mu realized that he was using the wrong force at all.

After the jujube is ripe, the most vulnerable link to the branch is the jujube pedicle, so if you want to hit it quickly and well, you must aim at the right position.

Otherwise, according to the method of sumu, not only will it take less effort to knock down, but the red dates will also be easily rotted due to being knocked and injured.

After trying a few more poles, Su Mu finally mastered the skill of hitting jujubes.

With one pole down, the big red dates fell straight down like shooting stars, which made the big girls giggling; there were also many children who heard that they beat the dates and rushed over to join in the fun. Seeing that there was a layer of red dates on the ground, they hurried to Join the jujube picking army.Everyone picked and ate, and there was laughter in the jujube forest for a while, which was a good harvest scene!
