Pick mulberry seeds

Mulberry seed, the scientific name of Mulberry, has high edible and medicinal value. There are many mulberry trees on the heaped-up mountains in the south and east of my hometown. This season of the year is the season of rich mulberry seeds. When we came home on Sunday, the five of us drove to pick mulberry seeds and made a lot of jokes. Although I took a lot of detours, I finally came home with a full load and was very happy.

On Sunday morning, my wife woke me up and asked me to go to the mountain with them to pick mulberry seeds. I didn't want to go because I was afraid of being tired, but I couldn't help getting up and going to Nanshan. Accompanied by our old brother-in-law, brother and sister-in-law. The old sister-in-law said that when she went to pick wild vegetables in spring, she saw a mulberry tree on the side of the road, so we went straight to the highway south of the city to look for it, but found no mulberry tree. Stop at the edge of a forest and look down. It is full of Caragana trees planted in the early years of sand control. My brother asked the farmers who were watering the land, and they said there was one in Beishan. In fact, when they say Beishan, they mean Dongshan. I looked for it several times, but I still didn't see the mulberry forest. Yes, it was spring and the trees haven't turned green yet. Now the earth is green and the trees are connected with each other. I can't see clearly what a mulberry is and what an elm is. Following an old road (dirt road), we arrived at Dongshan.

This old road is too familiar to us. Every year, we drive from here to the top of Dongshan Mountain to see the prospect of the town and take a walk on the road with firewood when we were young. The car bumped on the dirt road, drove to the top of Dongshan Mountain, entered the villa community in the development zone, went down the mountain along the old road and saw the newly built temple. To the north of the temple, it is the way down the mountain. Walking, the road was blocked by high mounds and became a dead end. The car had to turn around and drive east. Before walking more than ten meters, I saw the green guardrail of the expressway. Oh! This road is blocked! We can't help laughing, it seems that the old road won't work! I have to go back. According to my brother-in-law's instructions, I walked down the spacious ramp and set foot on the newly built road around the lake. On the west is a dense reed, a flat cement road, with trees and street lamps on both sides, which is no longer a muddy dirt road. We are talking and laughing happily, and I feel deeply in my heart. I haven't been to Dongshan for two years, but it has changed a lot here. The expressway connects Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces, and the traffic is very convenient. The road around the lake is clean and quiet, giving people excellent leisure space. At the foot of the mountain, looking at the outline of the county, I saw the buildings of Hubin New Town reflected in the water of Taihu Lake, and the small town surrounded by clear water and green trees was more elegant and beautiful. The waterbirds in the lake are dancing and chirping, and the summer morning is so quiet and picturesque. We were fascinated by the beautiful scenery. ...

The car arrived at the north exit of the county seat, which is also a place to enter the expressway. At this time, my brother-in-law said that there was a mulberry forest near the East Lake, and there must be mulberry seeds. We crossed the viaduct leading to Shengli Township and entered a dirt road heading north. After walking about 200 meters, I met someone who picked mulberry seeds. This is a large mulberry forest, with tall trees and leaves shining in the sun. Mulberry leaves are like elms, but wider and brighter than elms. My wife jokingly said, Oh! Old brother-in-law is really deep. I stopped talking, so we took a lot of detours! We all started picking mulberry seeds, talking and laughing. After a while, the voice dropped. Finally, there was no sound at all, and everyone was attracted by the mulberry seeds all over the tree!

Mulberry granules were so thick that many ripe fruits fell to the ground and withered. We picked it carefully, accidentally broke the flesh, and our hands were stained with purple flesh. No matter how careful you are, your hands are still dyed purple. My brother and sister picked a lot quickly, but my brother ate while picking, and his tongue was dyed purple. The quality I picked is good, and the quantity is ok. My wife picked the least, but destructively cut a few branches full of fruits, saying that she would take them home to show her little granddaughter what mulberry trees looked like. Picking fruit is really addictive. Looking at the fruits all over the tree, I can't wait to pick them all without pulling them. In a blink of an eye, it's almost 7 o'clock. At this time, I feel that the sun is broken and it is time to call it a day. My wife set out and told us to come back quickly. Looking at the mulberry seeds covered with trees, she reluctantly stopped, got on the bus and went back to the city.

On this sunny morning, the five of us, from south to north, followed the old road but embarked on a new one, watching the changes in our hometown, our hearts were full of joy and happiness; Pick natural fruits, enjoy the scenery of Shan Ye in summer, enjoy the joy and joy of harvest and taste the alcohol and beauty of life!
