Chapter 1: Peanut

"White house, red tent, and a fat white man lives inside." Do you know the answer to this riddle? By the way, the answer is peanuts. Today, I will introduce to you this ordinary peanut.

The shape of peanuts is very similar to the number "8" or the letter "S". The color is very dim, earthy yellow, and the outer skin is full of soil. The surface is uneven and rough, and the feel is very bad. The size is only about the size of my little finger. I peeled the peanuts open and found that the outer skin of the peanut kernels was red. It wrapped the peanut kernels tightly, like wearing a tights. Peanut kernels are like a fat baby, chubby, round, and very attractive. Then cut the peanut kernels into two halves, the inside is white. I put the peanut in my mouth and bit it, and found that it was very crisp and hard, not as soft as an orange when I put it in my mouth. I peeled off the outermost red skin and put it in my mouth. A bitter and astringent feeling filled my mouth. I quickly put the kernels inside into my mouth, and then I felt a hint of sweetness, and the more I chewed, the more delicious it became.

Peanuts have a wide range of uses. They can extract oil and make a variety of foods. Peanuts contain a lot of protein and fat, which are very good for the human body. However, don’t underestimate the red coat of peanut kernels. Its nutritional value is no less than that of peanut kernels. It nourishes the stomach and nourishes the blood. It can be said that every part of peanuts has high value. Peanut quietly dedicated his all to mankind.

An accidental opportunity allowed me to learn more about peanuts.

It was a Saturday morning, and my mother and I went to exercise. When I passed a peanut field, I saw many small yellow flowers blooming on the peanut stems. I thought: These flowers are quite beautiful, why not pick a few to play with! I stretched out my hand to pick it, but my mother saw it and said, "You can't pick it. If you pick a flower, you will get one less fruit." I asked in confusion: "What is the relationship between flowers and peanut fruits?" Mom said: " Peanuts do not hang high on the branches like other fruits, making people like them at first sight. Peanuts bury the fruit underground. After its flowers wither, the flower roots will penetrate into the soil, and finally a peanut is formed. "Through my mother's introduction, I understood that Peanut is not only unknown and selfless, but also never seeks fame and fortune.

I like peanuts and people with qualities like them. For example: cleaners, who go out early and come back late every day, but never seek fame or fortune; and policemen, who stick to their posts no matter how hard it rains, but never complain; and people's teachers, who give life to students every day During class, they cannot go to the hospital to protect their children if they are sick. No matter what happens, they always stick to their posts. There are many, many people like this, and they all have peanut qualities.

I love peanuts, but I love the quality of peanuts even more. I also want to be an unknown person like peanuts who contributes to mankind.
