Mrs. Sun made bacon and artemisia cake and sent it to Lao Yangtou and Mr. Tan to try. Yang Ruoqing also came with her.
I went to town a few days ago and happened to catch up with someone selling strawberries.
In this era, strawberries are a rare fruit. They are usually grown by specialized fruit farmers for wealthy families and are basically not available for takeout.
But as long as you have money, there are still ways to get it.
Moreover, we go to the greenhouses where fruit farmers grow strawberries to pick them right away. They are fresh, juicy, sweet and delicious.
Yang Ruoqing took Luo Baobao, Xiaoduo and Huangmao to pick them together. They came back with more than ten kilograms, so they also sent some to the houses in the old house to try them out.
"Is this thing called a strawberry? I pinched a round one, and there seemed to be little things like goosebumps on it! Is this thing edible?"
Mr. Tan pinched a strawberry in his hand, feeling and playing with it, feeling curious and questioning.
Yang Ruoqing smiled and said: "Hey, of course this stuff is edible, and it's only available during this solar term. It's not even sold in Wa City. It's only for wealthy families."
"And in a wealthy family, not everyone can eat it. Only those with status and respect can eat it."
Tan's expression was a little weird, and he asked again: "Isn't it also a fruit for eating? Is it so rare? How much did it cost?"
Yang Ruoqing said: "I picked it from the shed, it's fifty cents per catty."
"What? What are you talking about? How much does it cost per pound?" Tan suddenly sat up and asked at a high pitched voice.
"Fifty Wen." Yang Ruoqing said patiently.
"Oh my God!" Tan squeezed her fingers hard and pinched a hole in the strawberry between her fingers, and juice oozed out from inside.
"Milk, be careful, the juice is about to fall on your clothes!" Yang Ruoqing reminded.
Mrs. Tan quickly took out a piece of handkerchief and put it under it. Then she stuffed the strawberry with a hole in her hand into her mouth and started chewing it.
Yang Ruoqing opened her mouth, originally wanting to remind Mrs. Tan not to eat the strawberry leaves and stems underneath, but it was obviously too late.
Like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit, Mr. Tan swallowed it all in one gulp. He probably didn't taste much after swallowing it, and he felt a little sour and frowned.
"This thing is not very delicious. It has a slight sour taste. Why is it so expensive? You can't live forever! It's such a waste!" Mrs. Tan clicked her tongue, shaking her head as she thought about it.
Yang Ruoqing's head was covered with black lines, and Mrs. Sun sitting aside also smiled awkwardly.
"Mom, this is Qing'er's wish and has nothing to do with the prodigal family," said Sun.
Mrs. Tan still smacked her lips and shook her head, "Fifty cents per catty. This pork is only fifteen cents per catty, right? This pound of strawberries can buy three catties of pork and five eggs. Isn't this a waste of money?" "
"I think back in those days when our old Yang family was not divided, it was very luxurious to be able to buy three kilograms of meat for the New Year to beat the teeth of everyone. Life is good now, but these hands and feet are also big, and eating so much It’s an expensive thing, aren’t you afraid of being stabbed in the spine if you tell me about it?”
Hearing Tan's words, the smile on Yang Ruoqing's face disappeared.
"Miscellaneous, I can't even figure out whether you are a sharp-tongued person, or are you just so mean and mean from the inside out, and you just like to pick up unflattering things and say things that disgrace the scenery?" Yang Ruoqing asked unceremoniously.
"I'm kindly sending you some new gadgets. If you don't see how filial I am, forget it. If you give me a lecture, it's so depressing. Then I won't show you any filial piety from now on. Don't complain again then! "
When Yang Ruoqing said these words, Mrs. Sun kept winking at her.
Yang Ruoqing knew that Mrs. Sun was worried that she would speak too directly and Ms. Tan would not be able to bear it.
But Yang Ruoqing still had to say it, because it was difficult for ordinary people to accept what Tan said.
"Girl Qing, what are you doing? I just muttered a few words, and you're pushing me so much. Really, I can't even say you're wrong!" Mrs. Tan lowered her face and said displeased.
Yang Ruoqing rolled her eyes: "Mistress, what did I do wrong and you want to pick on me? I was kind enough to send you strawberries."
"I won't say any more unnecessary words. If you can understand my filial piety, you will naturally accept it happily. If you can't, then I won't force you. I can take the strawberries away, so you don't have to worry about them later. I have a headache and a fever, so you can blame me and I won’t take the blame!”
Yang Ruoqing said, got up and walked to the table, picking up a large warehouse bowl on the table. It was filled with washed strawberries, which weighed about a kilogram.
Yang Ruoqing picked it up and was about to leave. Sun quickly got up and followed her. Just as she was about to persuade him, the door of the east room opened and Old Yang came in from the outside.
"Don't listen to you, she has been so virtuous all her life, and the good words coming out of her mouth have changed their taste!" Lao Yang came into the room and said straight away.
He came straight over and took the bright strawberry in Yang Ruoqing's hand, and said: "You are blind and can't see such beautiful strawberries. These strawberries are not something ordinary people can eat. Those in our village A person will never be able to eat such a rare thing in his life. If you don’t know the goods, don’t be as knowledgeable as her!"
Old Yangtou spoke so beautifully, and Mrs. Tan on the bed also wisely closed her mouth and said nothing, Yang Ruoqing could not hold the strawberries out anymore.
"Fortunately, sir, you are sensible. Otherwise, my heart would be really cold. I would not dare to honor you again in the future. I am afraid that my mother-in-law will pick on me again and say that I am a prodigal."
Yang Ruoqing also glanced at Mrs. Tan on the bed, and continued: "Isn't it just a strawberry? No matter how expensive it is, I bought it with my own money. I didn't steal it. Why should I be afraid of others?" Poke in the spine?"
"Why should others poke my spine? I didn't buy strawberries with other people's money, right?"
Old Yang nodded repeatedly, "Yes, you are right. You think too much. She is old, so don't be as knowledgeable as her. After all, she still cares about your money, but she is stupid... "
"Okay, okay, I'm stupid. I'm stupid, okay? You two, please stop cheering me on. Girl Qing, don't be annoyed. After all, I am your mother, your father's biological mother. You are annoying me like a fool." It's no use looking at an old woman!" Ms. Tan also spoke up again.
When these words came out of Tan's mouth, it was a sign of submission.
Mrs. Sun quickly winked at Yang Ruoqing. Yang Ruoqing shrugged and said, "Just let it go!"
"Well, these strawberries are so delicious!" Lao Yangtou picked one up and threw it into his mouth. He ate it in big gulps, boasting as he ate.
"Qing'er, does such a big bowl of strawberries cost fifty or sixty cents?" Old Yangtou asked again.
Yang Ruoqing smiled and nodded: "As long as I am happy with my meal, it doesn't matter how much it costs."
Old Yang was startled for a moment, then nodded even more gratifiedly: "Good granddaughter, filial piety!"
