On a hot summer afternoon, a small plate of Ba Xing quietly came to an end. When I was a child, the apricots I ate turned into golden yellow when ripe, while Ba Xing was red with yellow in it, and yellow with red in it. It melts, and a mouthful of sweet juice and pulp slowly penetrates the heart and spleen.

A ba apricot started my childhood love for apricot trees and my obsession with apricots. I contacted my friend many times some time ago, hoping to send me some ripe ba xing, but my friend’s reply was slightly sour, please wait. Until last week, a friend picked nine-ripe almonds and sent two boxes to me. When he went to pick apricots, I asked him to take photos of his farm for me. From the photos, I saw the original ecological state. One or two geese took a leisurely stroll under the apricot tree, and a chicken caught insects in the grass under the apricot tree. I told him that this is the life that many people yearn for.

This reminds me of the apricot trees that were all over the mountains and plains when I was a child. The varieties were not as good as the current Ba Xing. Although they were sweet when mature, they had a bitter aftertaste. When I was young, my favorite thing was to climb on the apricot trees and pick apricots to eat. The land began to crack under the summer sun, but I was tireless and not afraid of the scorching sun. I searched all over the mountains and fields for apricot trees that I could climb up and pick apricots to eat. Sometimes I can’t tell whether I like eating apricots or climbing trees at that time.

Now I understand that what I miss is not only the ripe apricots, but also the apricot trees, and what I love deeply is the piece of yellow land. The mountains, rivers and mountains that raised me, and the flowers, plants and trees that grew up with me are my deepest attachment.

Eating a ba xing brings back memories of the happiness of childhood. The full juice flows through the lips and teeth, passes through the tip of the tongue, and finally reaches the spleen and stomach. It is joyful in the eyes and sweet in the heart. If it were not for the short distance, it would be difficult to eat nine-ripe apricots. If it is too ripe, it would be difficult to transport it. Even if bubble packaging is used, it is difficult to ensure its integrity after transportation. However, seven or eight-year-old apricots can be transported in a few days. Still maintains the sweet and sour taste. In order to ensure the taste and quality at the same time, my friend chose the fastest transportation method. Most people also like the 78-year-old Ba Xing, which is red, green, yellow and red, and extremely cute.

After eating the almonds, leave the apricot kernels and mash them. Take out the almonds, peel off the thin layer of khaki, and put them in your mouth. There is a crisp sound of teeth grinding against the almonds. My friend told me that I could dry the almonds and make porridge. How could I wait for the almonds to dry? After eating the apricots, I couldn’t wait to eat the sweet almonds without any bitterness. I couldn’t wait to mix the almonds with seasonal food. Bitter vegetables , come with a plate of cold vegetables to relieve the heat and serve as a meal.

For a foodie, the original taste of food is even more exciting and irresistible. I asked my friend why apricots are so sweet. My friend said, look what I have on my farm. Chicken and goose I replied. A friend said that chicken manure is used as fertilizer in the apricot tree field. If the chicken manure is not enough, goose manure can be used instead. The natural fertilizer is one meter away from the tree, which can not only supply the nutrients needed by the almond tree, but also realize the original ecological recycling.

I jokingly call him a modern environmentally friendly farmer. The yield of Ba Xing is not fixed every year, and neither pesticides nor other methods of increasing yield are used. Occasionally, when eating, you will encounter one that has been eaten by a worm. Generally speaking, the worms are sweeter, just like peaches that have been eaten by worms. Sometimes they will be eaten by squirrels, and peaches that have been eaten by squirrels have a sweeter taste than other peaches. If you encounter apricots with worms, you can throw away the flesh but not the almonds. Almonds can not only be eaten as porridge, but also have the effect of relieving cough and asthma.

In June, I started making reservations with my friends for geese, and roosters for the end of the year. There are not many chickens and geese left without feed. And I still miss the pot of native chicken that my mother cooked during the Chinese New Year when I was a kid. This land in northern Shaanxi has given birth to not only fresh trees, but also a group of hardworking and intelligent people.

This season, the fragrance of apricot drifts from the hillside, into the nostrils of so many passers-by, and into the hearts of so many foodies.

Such delicacies must be shared to make them even more fragrant and sweet. Below is the WeChat ID of your friend. You can add him. The almonds on the branches today will be sweet in your mouth tomorrow.18098036900
