orange

As far as fruit is concerned, by far, the most I've eaten are oranges. If I go shopping for fruit alone, I will definitely buy oranges first. What you buy after that depends on your mood.

There are many reasons for liking oranges. I remember when I was young, my family didn’t have a lot of money, but my mother would bring some oranges to my sister and I every time I went to the market. Every time my mother gave us only one, my mother said that good things should be enjoyed slowly and not eaten all at once. Usually I rush to peel oranges, because when peeling oranges, the skin will squeeze out a lot of juice and get on my hands. Hands will leave the fragrance of oranges. When an orange is evenly divided, my mother will always say: "I have tasted it when I bought it on the set, you can eat it." At that time, I would always be happy to put those oranges that belonged to my mother on my sisters. Gobbling in envious eyes. The only person in the family who can eat an orange is the father. My mother said that my father worked so hard outside alone, supporting a family for our three siblings to go to school. But in my memory, my father never ate an orange. He would always give me half of it, "take it and share it with my sister." He didn't allow me to eat the half alone, even if my sister was not at home, I would keep it for them. At that time, I thought my father was great, not because he supported the whole family, but because of the half orange he gave me.

Orange peel can't be thrown away, my mother dried it and has many uses. Orange peel powder seasoning Dry the orange peel until it becomes brittle, then press it into powder and put it in a glass bottle. When cooking and making soup, add a little bit to add flavor and fragrance. Boil the porridge and sprinkle a little, it will reveal an orange fragrance. When steaming the steamed buns, add some flour and mix well, the steamed steamed buns are fragrant and fragrant. If making steamed buns, mix some into the bean paste filling, it will be more delicious. Drink fresh orange peel in water. After washing, you can put it into a teacup and brew it with tea. It can not only clear away heat and relieve cough, but also moisten the throat and help digestion. Put the orange peel in the refrigerator, its fragrance can eliminate the odor. In summer, dry orange peel can be ignited to drive away mosquitoes and flies. Soak the orange peel in hot water and use it to wash your hair, like a high-quality conditioner, and your hair will be smooth and soft. My mother likes to grow flowers. She soaked the orange peel in water to compost, and added it to the pot soil as fertilizer. There is no unpleasant smell, and the fertilizer effect is very long-lasting. My mother doesn't know how to read and she hasn't attended school for a day, but she is very knowledgeable and she taught me a lot. She will always use her wisdom to save every penny for the family, so that our brothers and sisters can have better food and clothing in school.

In the years of junior high school, I developed a great dislike for oranges. My family's living conditions have gotten better over the years. Dad and uncle took all the family savings to Wenzhou to do business. I've always thought that Dad's upright personality was not suitable for business. It was later proved that my judgment was absolutely correct. Three months later, when my father came back from Wenzhou, he exchanged 100,000 yuan for a cart of oranges. The piles are all over the house, in the courtyard, in the house, and even under my bed. That night I hid in my house and heard my father and mother arguing in the house. I ate six oranges in one bite.

Early the next morning, my mother packed a truckload of oranges and went to the market, this time to sell oranges. There are so many oranges that I can't sell them all by going to the market alone, so my mother drives a cart and sells them across the streets. On Sunday, I went home from vacation and volunteered to sell oranges. My mother packed a cart for me, all packed in plastic bags, 10 pounds per pack, 10 yuan per pack. I was pushing the car down the street, and when I saw an acquaintance, my face turned red all of a sudden. The usual friends all followed me, laughing and shouting: Wang Qingwu is selling oranges. I stopped the car and looked back at them, watching them jeering, grabbing a bag of oranges and smashing them hard. I was crying and pushing the cart back, my mother looked at my bag of oranges that I didn’t sell, she hugged me, wiped my tears, and said, “Why are you crying, it’s okay if the oranges can’t be sold, don’t put your own Dignity is sold."

In the next few days, my sister and I helped my mother sell several carts of oranges. Finally, the oranges were sold out before they went bad.
