"Lin Xi ~ Lin Xi ~, the white jade loquat in the back garden has been cooked a batch, you remember to go to the back garden today to pick a basket, so that your father can send it to your brother to taste, he will eat this!"
My hometown is in Shazhou Village, the "Hometown of Nai Li in China", which is rich in golden Nai Li, crystal pear, chestnut, loquat, yellow peach, emperor mandarin and other special fruits, and there are the freshest delicacies to look forward to all year round. And my grandfather, grandmother, and father are rooted in this land, and have paid their life's work and love on this land, so the home's self-grown fruits have never been broken, soft and fragrant loquat, crisp and sweet chickpeas, sour and sweet dongkui bayberry, thin and tender crystal pear, crisp and golden golden nai plum, sweet and juicy yellow peach, tender emperor mandarin orange... Grandma also always left the earliest and best fresh fruit for my brother and me.
My brother studied in Rucheng No. 1 Middle School, and it was rare to come back once a semester, and Grandma was always afraid that her brother would not be able to catch up with the laying of the fruits in her hometown, and often let her father send them to her brother in time to taste the early. My brother loved this loquat the most, and he especially loved this white jade loquat. The brother always said: "This white jade loquat, you don't look at its small size, the appearance is not bright, when you gently peel off its thin leather coat, you will see the delicate, white flesh, the juice is particularly full, in the sun's light translucent, like jade." It not only looks beautiful, it is also moist to eat, the taste is rich, peeling off there is a fresh aroma, eating into the mouth has a special umami taste, the taste is sweet, the meat is thick and small, the juice is full, the magical taste between yellow peach and lychee, and the loquat in normal times is completely different, that is to say, there is more loquat flavor! ”
My brother loves this white jade loquat, and he is also like this white jade loquat, warm as jade, humble and introverted on the surface, but in fact rich and colorful inside. Maybe the personality is different, the preferences are different, but I like to try all kinds of flavors. I love the small fresh taste of white jade loquat, I also love the solid and mellow taste of five-star loquat, and I also salivate at the rich and sweet taste of loquat at the door. Dad always said that I was too naughty, less patient, even eating fruit is half-hearted, in fact, he does not know, I am not half-hearted, just like the hometown of this unique bite of delicious, always want to take the opportunity to try as much as possible to taste another one, otherwise in the future like a brother to go out to study or work outside like a mother, you can only have an empty mind in your heart, the unique taste of this hometown is nowhere to be found.
It's the season of loquat ripening again, and it's not just the fruits of the sandbank that are thick, but also your thoughts.
