Following the words of He's sister-in-law, Tian Minyan ran with Xiao Wu carrying a basket and came to the edge of the back mountain. On the edge of the pit, dense mulberry trees were planted near the water. The green mulberry trees were sprouting. I thought they would be there in half a day.
It bears fruit.
"Sister, these are all fed to pigs. Can those fruit people really eat them?" Xiao Wu looked at the green sprouts and asked hesitantly: "Will you not get diarrhea after eating them?"
He knew that this tree would bear fruit, but he had never eaten it, and no one in the village had eaten it. Now that Tian Minyan said it could be eaten, he was naturally surprised.
"Of course you can, it's very sweet." Tian Minyan looked at the mulberry tree that had slipped away with a smile, her eyes shining as if she had picked up a huge treasure.
Mulberry fruit is sweet and cold in nature. It nourishes yin and nourishes blood. It can also moisturize the intestines and quench thirst. It can be used as medicine to treat insomnia, dreaminess, hair loss, early whitening, backache, soreness in the waist, and tinnitus. All in all, this is a good thing!
I don’t know if the people in the countryside don’t understand or something, but in Yangmei Village, they actually thought that the mulberry fruit was bad. When I came here, I heard from Xiao Wu that the people in the village only saw that it was black like a worm and long.
In such a remote place, I didn't even know it was edible. I usually just cut some branches and leaves for the pigs to eat.
What a waste of money!
"Do the people in the village really not know this is edible?" Tian Minyan asked.
"These are all for feeding pigs." Xiao Wu felt very strange. His sister had warned him not to eat randomly before, so why did he suddenly ask this? He raised his head with a frown and said, "Sister, did you fall into the river?
Lost your mind?"
Tian Minyan was startled, then smiled and said vaguely: "Sister fell into the river and forgot some things."
"Sister, you are so pitiful." Xiao Wu's eyes immediately turned red, and he pursed his lips in worry.
Ahem, Tian Minyan turned her gaze away uncomfortably and looked at the mulberry trees again, her mind spinning rapidly. Maybe she could get the first pot of gold in this world. These mulberry trees were her way out of poverty.
If all these mulberry trees bear fruit and are ripe, she can pick them and sell them for money, as long as she waits for a few more days, and then waits.
Looking at the wild mulberry tree that had slipped away by the pit, Tian Minyan thought for a while, lowered her head and said, "Xiao Wu, you can't tell anyone that this fruit is edible."
"Why? Dad and mom..."
"Xiaowu, do you want to study and recognize words?" Tian Minyan looked into his eyes and asked seriously: "Do you want to be a learned person?"
It’s not that he can’t tell Tian Huairen and the others, but because of the level of those two people, Tian Minyan really didn’t dare to leak out this first pot of gold. Jiang, she has learned the lesson!
Xiao Wu was stunned for a moment, nodding his head like a chicken pecking at rice.
Although he didn't say it, looking at his eldest brother holding a book, it was something he could only dream about. He wanted to read and write, and wanted to be the most knowledgeable person.
"Then just listen to me." Tian Minyan pinched his skinny cheek gently and said with a smile, "Sister, I want you to become a learned person and a master."
Xiao Wu looked at Tian Minyan, his closest sister, with his eyes bent, and he nodded vigorously. There was unquestionable trust and dependence in his eyes.
Many years later, when Xiaowu stood at the top and received the envious gazes of everyone, recalling this scene, a warm current seemed to flow through his heart. And because of a series of accidents that followed, Tian Minyan became the most popular person in his life.
