Chapter 40 Sour Green Orange
The small garden is located in a remote area and usually no one comes here. It is even less likely that anyone will come here today under such a scorching sun.

Duo Luo arrived outside the garden according to the route he remembered.
The freckled girl was swaying along with it.

As they walked slowly, the freckled girl discovered that the pink-haired little animal next to her didn't seem to be very good at picking up bottles.

But it is understandable.

After all, it is just a small animal, not a human, so it is normal for it to be a little stupid!
So, the freckled girl took on most of the work of picking up bottles, and was sweating profusely after half an hour.

Finally we arrived at the secluded little garden,

The freckled girl was so tired that she could not walk any further.

"Shall we take a break?"

Panting, she pushed her sweat-soaked bangs to the side of her forehead and whispered a suggestion to Dora.

The scorching heat made Doraemon feel very uncomfortable.

Its short fur had become satin-like when wet.

If only I could drink a glass of ice-cold Runji juice right away...

It’s really wonderful!
Suddenly remembering the lemonade from the milk tea shop, Duo Luo sat down on the ground and smacked his lips, trying to savor it.

Lemon, shaped like an orange, was eaten by Duo Luo once.

I tasted it because someone (Huang Musong) teased me.
It tastes sour and not good.

but!
Soak lemon in water, add ice and sugar, and take a sip to cool your lungs.

It is perfect for relieving summer heat.

Perhaps because he didn't have breakfast, Duoluo's stomach rumbled with desire for lemonade.

Hunger seems to be contagious.

The freckled girl's stomach also started to growl.

She was hungry and needed to eat, but she was short of money!

Her cheeks turned red due to her tight financial situation. She turned her face away in embarrassment, showing a very ashamed reaction.

Sit on the ground for a few seconds.
The hot red bricks made Duo Luo jump up suddenly.
It stomped its feet on the spot with a look of helplessness on its face.

Stamp your feet.

The chubby Q-version body trembles at the same frequency.

Its funny appearance made the freckled girl giggle again...

After venting my anger on the floor tiles,

Duoluo gradually remembered what it was here for.

So, he immediately went into the small garden and looked for the orange tree he had planted with others before.

The location of the orange tree is not difficult to find.

It found it quickly.

But the actual situation seems to be different from what I imagined...

How could this happen?
Duo Luo stared at the scene before him. His brain, which had just become slightly more flexible, was now no longer sufficient. His eyes were dull, his pupils filled with "wisdom", and his usual dull self was repeated.

The cause of its confusion,
It was the orange tree that it had planted with its own hands!
Just got the Roaring Whale Watering Can.
Duoluo kindly wants Huang Musong to eat fresh Oh Runji every day.
Then it is sown directly in a single room in the basement.

That orange tree has made the whole room smelly, making it uninhabitable in the short term.

After that.
When Huang Musong tested the Bellowing Whale watering can, he used the first orange tree planted by Duo Luo as a control, sowing seeds, watering, observing and calculating.

The orange trees in the experimental group were planted around the first orange tree after transplantation.

But why is there only one fruiting orange tree here at the moment?

Come near the orange tree,

Duoluo circled around the tree trunk, looking for the direction of other trees.

Its seemingly stereotyped behavior makes it appear naturally cute.

The freckled girl didn't understand what was going on with Doraemon.

I found it always spinning in circles.

I mistakenly thought it was heat stress.
The freckled girl hurriedly took out the waste paper she had just picked up from the sack and used it to fan Dora.

A slight coolness brought Duo Luo back to his senses
It immediately stopped walking, raised the corners of its mouth and smiled foolishly, using its actual expression to show that it was fine.

The freckled girl breathed a sigh of relief.

She also began to notice the orange tree standing in front of her.

In the south, the climate is suitable for plant growth, and there are all kinds of green plants planted along the streets.

Growing up in the south, the freckled girl could easily tell that this green orange was a wild tree!
The tree is full of large green-skinned oranges.
That color immediately stimulated the salivary glands. She swallowed, and after a brief moment of daze, she vaguely understood something.

"What a silly little cutie..."

Lower your head, whisper, and giggle.

The spots are covered with redness,
The freckled girl squatted down and gently stroked Duo Luo's head.

At this moment, Dora has too many things to say.

It was eager to ask the other party immediately: Can orange trees disappear on their own?

How come there is only one orange tree left of the one I planted with someone else?

I wanted to ask but held back.

Duo Luo planned to lie that the tree in front of him, which was full of green oranges, was an ownerless wild tree.

Wild trees are unwanted by everyone, and they belong to whoever sees them first.

Duo Luo is ready to take the green-skinned oranges for himself!
As something "picked up", the green-skinned orange should naturally be considered a "surprise" and belong to the young lady.

Keep what you just wanted to say in your heart.
Doro started picking the fruit on its own. Seeing its indifferent reaction—completely devoid of guilt or surprise—the freckled girl became even more certain that this green tangerine tree was definitely planted by Doro. Hmm…it could also have been planted by that young man from yesterday; in any case, it couldn't be a purely wild tree.

Thinking of this, she said nothing.

The freckled girl helped Duo Luo pick green-skinned tangerines.

The wild trees, left unattended, grew purely on the strength of the bellowing whale's watering can.

The entire small tree only produces a little over ten pounds of fruit.

After picking all the fruits, Duoluo held the last Oh Runji in his hand and peeled off the skin skillfully with great anticipation.

Oh Runji...

Oh Runji...

There are words in his mouth.

Duo Luo broke the plump orange with white beard into two equal halves.

"Here~"

I shared half of the orange with the young lady.

The freckled girl took the orange but didn't eat it. She watched from the sidelines, trying not to laugh.

Until Dora finally put a small piece of orange into his mouth
"Giggle~"

The freckled girl then laughed out loud.

As for Doro, it was like looking into the eyes of Medusa in Western mythology, and the whole little beast was petrified and stiff from head to toe.

acid!
It tastes bad but I don’t want to waste it.
Because Doro knows that sour Oh Runji is too fresh and not bad.

It gritted its teeth and swallowed the sour water in its mouth.

"hey-hey……"

After eating the sour oranges, Duoluo scratched his head and smiled foolishly.

It continued to eat the remaining orange slices in silence.

Seeing this, the freckled girl gave up the idea of ​​throwing away the sour oranges. She felt embarrassed to waste them.

Acid means rich in vitamins!
She convinced herself,
Just like Duo Luo, I forced myself to finish the sour orange.

One man and one beast,
Like taking medicine,
They finished off a whole Oh Runji.

But what to do with the remaining tartare?
Dora's initial idea was to give the Oh Runji he had planted himself as a surprise gift to the other party.

Now it feels embarrassed to let the other person eat all the sour oranges by himself.

Thinking about replying to Oh Runji's words.
Before Duo Luo could speak, how could the freckled girl not know what the little guy was thinking? With a sweet smile, she pointed in the distance, in the direction of the nearby vegetable market.

"Let's set up a stall over there before noon."

The freckled girl cleared her throat and continued, "It's not difficult to sell more than ten kilograms of oranges at a stall. The price is low and people will definitely come."

Setting up a stall?

Great!
Duo Luo jumped for joy.

Although selling sour Oh Runji is a bit unfair,

But humans are smart!

A green-skinned Oh Runji—you know it's sour right off the bat. If you're willing to buy it knowing it's sour, you're not being unkind. Besides, someone (Huang Musong) said that sour lemons can be used as seasoning. A sour Oh Runji, that's fine too...

Thinking in his head, he took a step with his short legs.

Duo Luo gathered his strength and carried a bag of sour oranges on his back, setting off!
The freckled girl followed closely,
She still walked slowly and unsteadily.

What was different from before was her mood at this moment, which was pretty good.

.........

An hour later, in the morning, before ten o'clock.

The sour oranges sold at the stall set up by Duo Luo and Freckles Girl were all sold out.

Green-skinned oranges are selling surprisingly well!
In recent years, the market has been dominated by orange tangerines, which people have long grown tired of. Green tangerines are not only not sweet but also very sour, making them a rare commodity that has a greater market share.

With low price,

Selling for 3 yuan per pound, it is almost free in the capital.

The tickets were finally sold out two hours earlier than the freckled girl expected.

More than ten kilograms, net profit of 47 yuan, all paid via WeChat.

She planned to find a place to exchange some coins for Duoluo.

After all, the oranges were grown by Duo Luo, and people shouldn't take advantage of a small animal.

but,
Doro doesn't want to make this money at all!
It picked up the sack.
Say goodbye quickly,
Then he resolutely quickened his pace and headed towards the basement.

The freckled girl couldn't catch up with its speed at all.

And I haven’t converted the money in WeChat into cash yet…

In the end, she could only watch Duo Luo leave, and the freckled girl silently went to the small restaurant alone to start work.

"Well! Next time we meet, I'll definitely return the favor."

"Fifty dollars is not a small amount..."

She muttered to herself as she walked.

If this amount of money were a little more, it would be equivalent to a day's salary at work!
 Everyone, tomorrow is Tuesday. It is very important to catch up on tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, because the first round of recommendations will be arranged this Friday. Everyone, please catch up on the reading tomorrow. Thank you all.
