However, its shape was quite different from that of a raspberry. A raspberry was round, but this one was not, and it was much bigger.
“Is this a strawberry?” Xue Yan asked.
Jiang Yue, who was about to say that it was a strawberry, smiled and nodded at the question.
Jiang Yue placed the three strawberries in her hands on the leaves that Xue Yan was holding. She took out five more times before she finally took out all the strawberries that she had picked from the space.
The size of the leaves was just right. There were still some strawberries left when she put all of them onto the leaf.
“We can eat it after washing it.” Jiang Yue said.
“Then you wait here, I’ll go and wash them.” With that, Xue Yan left with the strawberries.
After finding a suitable place to stand, he squatted down and began to wash the surface of the strawberries one by one.
Jiang Yue didn’t wait under the willow tree. Instead, she walked over and squatted down beside him to help him wash the fruits.
She just needed to wash the surface of the strawberries. In fact, Jiang Yue didn’t think there was a need to wash them. She felt that the strawberries planted in her space were quite clean and there was no pesticide on them, but there was no harm in washing them just to make sure.
After washing it, Xue Yan put the strawberries on the leaves and went back to the willow tree with Jiang Yue.
He placed the strawberry on one of the medium-sized stones.
Then, the two of them sat down on another rock and ate the strawberries.
The strawberry was sweet and sour, and it was big. Xue Yan felt it tasted good, not too sour or sweet.
Jiang Yue liked strawberries very much, so she naturally thought that they tasted good.
Xue Yan also knew that it was not good to let others see this thing, for the time being, so he didn’t say anything about bringing it back for the others to eat.
She picked up another strawberry and ate it slowly. Xue Yan said, “This won’t last long, right?”
It felt like it was all pulp, unlike winter watermelons, which had thick skin on the surface and could be kept for a while. He felt that this one wouldn’t be kept for long.
“Yes.” Jiang Yue replied and took another bite of the strawberry before she said, “When the strawberries in our field ripen, we have to pluck them quickly, or they’ll rot.”
Xue Yan nodded and kept it in mind.
On this side, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan went to the willow tree by the river to wash and eat strawberries. On the other side, Zhang Meili was chatting with some of the village women. From those women, she found out that Jiang Yue and Xue Yan’s family were making candy. She also heard that Xue Dabao and Xue Xiaobao had each been given a small bowl of malt candy yesterday. She immediately exploded and didn’t dare to go to Jiang Yue and Xue Yan’s houses, so she immediately went home.
When she got home, she grabbed Xue Gouzi, who was sweeping the floor, and asked, “Dabao and Xiaobao got their share of the candy, did you get yours too? Where’s the candy? Hurry up and take it out! How dare you hide such a good thing from me!”
Xue Dagui was sharpening his hoe. When he heard this, he didn’t even raise his head. He continued to sharpen his hoe as he said, “Zhang Meili, do you feel uncomfortable if you don’t torture him for a day?”
Xue Zhuzi’s body had also recovered. When he heard his mother questioning Xue Gouzi, he walked out of the house and said angrily, “Mother, what’s going on? What candy?”
Zhang Meili immediately told him everything she had heard.
When Xue Zhuzi heard that Xue Gouzi had a small bowl of candy, he immediately questioned, “Where’s the candy?”
“No…” Xue Gouzi cowered, “I didn’t… I didn’t get any…
“How could you not get any!” Zhang Meili shouted. “Didn’t that brat Xue Yan give you the same thing he gave to Dabao and Xiaobao? You can’t lie to me. Hurry up and take it out! Hurry up and take it out! You must have hidden it! Hurry up and take it out!”
