Chapter 1067 Strawberry

   "Thank you for your hard work."

Seeing that her address to him had changed again, Chu Heng's eyes were dark, and he looked away from her face. He hummed, turned around, and walked into the village, with his back straight and the hem of his clothes rippling in the wind. leave.

  Ye Muyu and the others walked away, only to look back at him.

   "What's the matter?" Turning around, she saw Zhao Qingqing looking at herself thoughtfully.

   "Ah? No, it's nothing." Zhao Qingqing rolled her eyes, and quickly changed the subject, not wanting Sister Ye to know that she felt that Master Chu's reaction was a bit... How should I put it, it doesn't seem that she doesn't care about Sister Ye.

  Ye Muyu didn't ask much, and walked ahead, introducing her to the crops grown on Zhuangzi.

   Soon arrived at the greenhouse.

   Several rooms were built outside the greenhouse, and the long-term workers in charge of the greenhouse usually sit here.

  Zhang Shi walked over and quickly called out several people in the room.

   There are also long-term workers watering in the greenhouse.

   "I have met Madam, I have met Ms. Zhao." Under Zhang Shi's introduction, several long-term workers hurriedly saluted the two of them.

  Ye Muyu said: "It's okay, let's come over and take a look. Uncle Li came and followed me. I need to ask about the situation of the greenhouse, and the rest of the people can do whatever they need to do."

   "Yes, ma'am."

   Several people saluted, only a middle-aged man followed behind Ye Muyu, and the rest did not dare to go back to the house and were busy looking for work.

  Ye Muyu didn't say much when she saw it.

"Wow, Sister Ye, what kind of fruit is this, isn't it so pretty?" Zhao Qingqing put her skirt into the greenhouse, and when she saw the greenhouse with a full 100 square meters, she first exclaimed, and then her eyes were bright red. Attracted by the object, he hurried over and looked at the leaves and fruits lined up on the ground.

"This is a strawberry. There should be some in the capital. The seeds were brought in by foreigners." Ye Muyu walked over, but she was so lucky that the strawberry happened to be ripe. Speaking of which, it is very difficult to grow these strawberries. If there are long-term workers, they will take care of these strawberries, for fear that they will not bear fruit.

"Madam, most of these strawberry fruits are turning red. I don't know how long they can grow on them if I don't pick them. I'm planning to send a letter to Madam." Uncle Li is an old farmer, but he has never grown such a rare fruit before. It's really out of the question, so when he goes to Yuzhou to report the news, he won't be blocked. As long as there is something to report, the wife will not reprimand him, so he has a little confidence in his heart.

"Look, Uncle Li, if the roots of this strawberry are all white or red, they are already ripe for picking, and they are considered very ripe. If there is still a little bit of cyan, it is nine percent ripe, and if you can clearly see the cyan, it is seven percent ripe. "

   "Fully ripe strawberries are inconvenient to transport, and the skin will be damaged after bumping, and they will start to rot within half a day. Half-ripe strawberries can be stored for about two days, and medium-ripe strawberries can be stored for five or six days."

   "However, half-ripe strawberries are not sweet enough. Unless necessary, they can be picked when they are half-ripe."

   "When picking, wear gloves. By the way, go find two bamboo baskets." Ye Muyu said methodically.

  Uncle Li went there in a hurry. My wife had said earlier in the morning that I would prepare bamboo baskets, and then they would put strawberries in them. They had already prepared them. "Sister Ye, you really know a lot." Zhao Qingqing looked at Strawberry greedily: "Actually, I only ate it once in the capital, but as you said, even if it is an imperial gift, it is difficult to keep."
