620. August fried

During this period of land reclamation in the back mountains, it happened that the land that was opened was only a small road away from the tea garden and chestnut garden, so the excavator guy simply walked away from here in the shade.

No matter how remote the mountain is, there is always something edible, and he can always get some during this time.

I started by digging out tree roots, and in the morning I dug out more than a dozen big, fat, white bugs - these things taste delicious when roasted! They are also very nutritious!

However, during this period of time, he ate food from Song Tan's family every day and became very naughty. After thinking about it, he brought it over to Dabao and Erbao.

After all, this was not the first time he worked for the Song Tan family. Qiao Qiao brought it over and pointed it out, and Dabao and Erbao were willing to eat what he brought.

The first time I saw this thing, Dabao and Erbao were not willing to eat it. After smelling it, they fell down without interest.

However, Zhang Ziqiang felt distressed if he didn't eat it, so he lit a fire again and grilled a bunch of branches!

At the same time, he sighed: "You guys really don't know how to eat! When I was a child, I didn't even get to eat at home."

Not to mention, once it was roasted, the aroma was so fragrant that both dogs were willing to eat it.

Since then, everyone has gradually become familiar with each other.

For example, two days ago, Zhang Ziqiang brought some Duluguai dates from the mountains.

Although it had a slightly astringent taste, the overall taste was still sweet. The two dogs had nothing to do and ate them up while playing.

So today, after hearing Zhang Ziqiang's call, Dabao Erbao let out a "woof", decisively opened the door covered by the golden cherry vines and ran out.

Seeing this, Zhou Tianyu subconsciously took two steps back:

"Damn it! You can really come out!"

Sun Zhiqiang put down his clothes, and several strange lavender fruits with open mouths inside rolled down and fell on the grass.

Dabao and Erbao sniffed around curiously but refused to speak, which made Sun Ziqiang depressed:

"Alas, ancestor! How can I still poison you if I feed you every day? You want me to serve you again, and you want me to test the poison... Come, come, come, let me eat for you to see!"

As soon as he said this, Dabao stretched out his claws and pulled one out. Zhang Ziqiang was not picky. He picked up the thing from the grass and broke it with a little force. The thick lavender skin was peeled off along the opened mouth.

Open it, revealing the soft white flesh about a finger long inside.

The whole fruit looks like a big purple dumpling. When you break it open and look at the flesh, it looks like a banana.

The reason why it is called August fried is because in July and August, the ripe fruit will crack a crack from the middle and slowly open like a river mussel.

That’s why it’s called that in the local area.



"Oh!" Tian Tian said in surprise: "It's going to explode in August! I haven't seen it in many years."

Zhang Ziqiang pointed to the ones on the ground: "Eat whatever you want, I just pulled them off the vine."

Zhou Tianyu didn't say anything, but he saw that Tian Tian had already squatted down and picked one with a darker purple color - it was more mature.

He also said: "I was watching videos a while ago and saw the August fried fruit that someone grew at home. The fruit is longer and bigger than this one, the purple color is also very beautiful, and the skin is thinner."

Unlike the ones in their hands, the whole fruit is only a dozen centimeters long, like a large, overly plump dumpling. But the color is uneven, with white, yellow and purple alternating on the thick outer skin, and the flesh is obvious.

It's also smaller than in the video.

"I watched it too!"

Zhang Ziqiang got excited: "I heard that they are all scientifically bred and improved varieties. They are of better quality than those that grow randomly in the mountains and fields. They are quite expensive to sell."

That's right... He couldn't figure it out, what's so good about this thing?

In their childhood, August bombings were of course popular, but weren’t the conditions and transportation at that time difficult?

On such a hot summer day, there are basically no other fruits except watermelon, so naturally I want to eat something fresh.

But now we can afford to eat all kinds of fruits, and the overripe August fried fruit pulp is glutinous and soft. Every bite is full of seeds, and you have to spit them out one by one.

I was busy with my mouth, but I didn’t actually eat much. It was quite sweet, and it really wasn’t so expensive!

As Sun Ziqiang spoke, he enthusiastically picked one and gave it to Zhou Tianyu:

"Come and have one with your girlfriend!"

Zhou Tianyu subconsciously took it and then explained: "We are not yet..."

"Oh," Zhang Ziqiang looked at Tian Tian and then at Zhou Tianyu: "That's okay, I'm just a guest from afar, so it's not worth anything!"

At this time, Dabao snorted and was unhappy.

I only brought seven or eight of them in total. It was for Zhang Ziqiang to try the poison and they didn’t eat them all. Now there are obviously a few missing!

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Zhang Ziqiang laughed, then touched the head of Dabao Erbao, then finished the remaining bite in two or two, and then broke off the remaining fruits for them:

"Break them apart and take them out into the garden. If you want, eat another one. We'll have lunch later."

As soon as these words were said, the two treasures seemed to understand them, and they went into the garden with the words in their mouths.

Dabao, on the other hand, was all black, shiny and muscular, with a piece of fruit in his mouth. When he walked up to Zhou Tianyu, he lowered his voice and said "woo", and then flicked his tail, clearly looking down on him.

Zhou Tianyu: ...It’s not that he’s being petty, he feels like this dog is discriminating against him!

Sure enough, Zhang Ziqiang had already asked him:

"What did you do? Why do the eldest and second darlings dislike you so much?"

With Tian Tian beside him, Zhou Tianyu didn't have the nerve to lie, so he hesitated at this moment:

"I'm not...I was standing there talking. I saw that the chestnut was growing very well, and I wanted to break off a branch and try it."

"Ouch!"

Zhang Ziqiang shouted exaggeratedly and looked at him:

"Why do you think so?! There are so many chestnut trees here that no one cares about, so you're targeting Song Tan's family?"

"They paid a lot of money to use a fence to pull me there, and they even kept two dogs to keep an eye on me. Don't you want to think about why?"

"Let me tell you, the chestnuts haven't grown yet, but when they do, the price will definitely not be less than 20 per pound! If you just break off one branch, three or five chestnut bags will cost dozens of dollars!"

Zhou Tianyu:...Why are his things so expensive?

He was dejected: "I, didn't I think so much?"

However, Tian Tian's eyes lit up and he quickly asked: "Is it really that expensive? Is it easy to sell?"

Zhang Ziqiang saw that she was a girl, so he snorted and finally answered:

"I just randomly decided on a price. It must be more than twenty yuan. I heard that several bosses have set it."

"What's wrong, do you want to buy it?"

"I don't buy it."

Tiantian turned around and looked at the lush chestnut tree, then took out her mobile phone:

"Brother, would you mind leaving me Boss Song's phone number? I have something to ask her."

Zhang Ziqiang said to himself: Why don't you ask Zhou Tianyu?

The two of them were walking in the mountains. They are boyfriend and girlfriend, right?

But then I thought about it, this guy surnamed Zhou was dishonest, and he wanted to use Song Tan's things to coax girls - huh, shameless!

He simply took the phone and clicked:

"Okay, here's my mobile phone number. You can call it later and I'll save it. I'll ask Song Tan when I get back and I'll get back to you."
