Chapter 267: Another wild fruit

 After walking for a while, a large cluster of low creeping plants appeared on a slope ahead.

At a glance, it looks a bit like wild sweet potatoes.

But it's obviously not a wild sweet potato, because there are many small purple flowers blooming on the plant.

Wild sweet potato flowers are not like this.

Li You knows this kind of plant. Although it is not a wild sweet potato, it is still a good thing.

"What are those in front? They look like wild sweet potatoes. Are they also a kind of wild fruit? The flowers are quite beautiful." Ye Shengge asked.

Li You nodded and said: "It is indeed a kind of wild fruit."

However, Li You did not directly name the wild fruit. Instead, he turned to Lu Yuan and said, "Do you know Mr. Lu Yuan? This kind of fruit should also be available in your Hunan Province."

Lu Yuan pondered: "I should have seen it, and I have some impression. But the impression is not deep. If I see the fruit, the impression will be deeper."

Li You said: "The fruiting period of this fruit has not yet arrived. It will not start to bear fruit until almost July."

"That's it!" Lu Yuan felt a little regretful.

Regarding wild fruits, he basically only remembers what the fruits themselves look like. As for the appearance of wild fruit plants and flowers, he has almost no impression.

Including the previous Ban Hanchun.

If the half-containing springs in Li Youye's orchard were not already bearing fruit, but appeared in the form of plants and flowers, he would probably not recognize them as half-containing springs.

"By the way, Boss Li You, can you describe the appearance of this fruit? I think I will have some impression?" Lu Yuan said again.

Li You nodded, "The shape of this kind of fruit is quite unique. The fruit is small, spherical, ranging from a few millimeters to a centimeter in diameter. It is green when immature, and dark purple when mature, and even looks like black. The whole body

It is covered with rough fur, and it feels like the whole body is covered with thorns..."

Hearing this, Lu Yuan's eyes became bright and he said: "I know, I know. I know this kind of fruit and have eaten it. It is indeed found in our Hunan Province. It is a berry with more juice and is quite sweet.

Yes, it tastes good. It's called... it's called... I forgot what it was called. But I have definitely eaten it."

"It's called the ground pole, right?" Li You said with a smile.

"Is it a ground pole?" Lu Yuan pondered, "It seems to be, but it seems not to be. I really have no impression of the name. But I can be sure that I have definitely eaten the fruit."

Li You nodded, "It's normal that I don't remember the name. I mainly live in rural areas for a long time. Otherwise, I might not be able to remember the name. This fruit is a creeping small shrub under the Melastoma family, Melastoma genus.

It is also called Diyan, Dimin, Dili, Pudijin, Pudan, etc."

"Pudijin?" Lu Yuan was inexplicably excited and said, "That's the name. It's called Pudijin over there. Yes, yes, Pudijin, I remembered it."

Lu Yuan was really excited. He didn't expect to find a wild fruit that he knew and had eaten so quickly.

Pa Di Jin, this name feels so far away.

I haven’t heard of it for nearly thirty years.

I thought I had completely forgotten the name. Unexpectedly, when I heard the three words "Pudijin", my long-lost memory suddenly opened up and I remembered it completely.

Lu Yuan was very excited.

It's just a little regrettable that it's a little early now, so I can only see the plants and flowers, but no fruits yet.

If it bears fruit, you can immediately feel the taste of your youth again.

What a pity.

But it doesn’t matter. Just wait until July when these brocades start to bear fruit.

Anyway, from now on, this place will definitely be a place where I will come often.

It’s worth looking forward to coming here next time!

Ye Shengge carefully recalled Li You's description of the shape of the ground pole, but he had no impression at all.

I probably have never seen or eaten it before.

After all, I have eaten too few wild fruits.

But it seems that now I have the opportunity to come into contact with a large number of wild fruits.

Ye Shengge was very interested and said: "I have never seen or eaten this kind of fruit before. I will come and taste it after they bear fruit."

Li You smiled and said: "I can't wait too long. I can eat it in two months at most. I used to eat it often. The taste is not as good as wild sweet potatoes, but it is still okay. And the nutritional value is relatively high, especially the calcium.

The content is very high. It is a good natural calcium supplement. And its medicinal value is not low. It can fight tumors, resist aging, lower blood sugar, lower blood lipids, etc., and has no toxic side effects on normal cells."

Ye Shengge's eyes lit up and he said, "In this case, I will eat more."

Li You said: "Of course."

Lin Xiao said at this time: "I often ate it when I was a child. The taste is indeed okay."

Li You smiled and said: "You are not very old now."

Lin Xiaodi said: "It's already very big. There are classmates in our class who are in love."

Lin Xiao's beeping sound was very quiet, but Li You heard it clearly and said with interest: "What about you? Are you in love?"

"Ah?" Lin Xiao didn't react at first, and was stunned for a moment before saying, "No."

Li You laughed.

Ye Shengge gave Li You a roll of his eyes and said, "Xiao Xiao is still a child."

After a while, he said again: "Should we transplant this wild fruit back?"

Li You nodded, "Yes. This is a good thing."

Ye Shengge said: "It's the same as transplanting snakeberries last time. Dig some out and tie them into bundles with ropes."

Li You nodded, "Yes."

Lu Yuan volunteered, picked up the hoe and said, "I'll dig."

Li You smiled and said: "Then it's all thanks to Mr. Lu Yuan."

Lu Yuan waved his hand, indicating that it was not hard work. Then he picked up the hoe and started digging.

One after another.

Li You took out the rope and tied up the earth poles dug by Lu Yuan.

After tying two large bundles, it was almost enough.

This wild fruit has strong vitality and a fast growth rate. After planting it in a wild orchard, it will not take long to grow into a large area.

"Boss, should we go back like this? Or should we go ahead and find another one?" Ye Shengge asked.

Li You said: "It depends on you. It depends on whether you still want to continue walking."

Ye Shengge looked at Lu Yuan and said, "What do you think, Mr. Lu Yuan?"

Lu Yuan said without hesitation: "Continue, continue. It's still early now. Let's walk around and see if we can find anything else?"

Lu Yuan is in high spirits now and doesn't want to go home just yet.

Ye Shengge actually wanted to continue, and she was still in the mood.

However, she still looked at Lin Xiao again.

Lin Xiao said: "Keep going, keep going. See if you can find something you can eat right now?"

Ye Shengge said happily: "Then continue."

Of course Li You has no objection.

Then keep going.

Li You and Lu Yuan each carried a bundle of ground poles.

Mainly because I’m afraid I won’t be able to return the same way later.

Otherwise, you can put these two bundles of floor beams here and pick them up when you come back.

But there is a possibility that we won’t be able to return the way we came. Then we can only carry it and leave.

It's not heavy, so it's fine to carry around.
