I love the bayberries in my hometown. My hometown is Ruian. Every year around the Dragon Boat Festival, it is the harvest season for bayberries.

The bayberry in my hometown is sweet and sour. I love the bayberry in my hometown.

Bayberry trees like to grow in places with high mountains and deep valleys. Every May and June, when the bayberries turn red, our family will go to high-rise buildings to pick bayberries.

Although when bayberries are in abundance, the streets and alleys can be heard shouting from vendors selling bayberries, but my father always said that the bayberries picked by himself are more delicious.

There are two types of bayberry: red bayberry and black bayberry. The red bayberry is small and red, but tastes sweet and sour. The black bayberry is famous for being large and black. It has rich juice and is best for quenching thirst.

The "Dongkui Bayberry" in my hometown is a very famous variety of black bayberry.

However, Dongkui bayberry ripens relatively late, and it always arrives late when other bayberries are out of production, so when other bayberries flood the market, people are looking forward to its delicious taste.

This year's High-rise Bayberry Festival came as scheduled for our family. The bayberry trees are tall, with many branches and dense leaves. After the mildew season, the baby bayberry sucked the nectar of the entire spring and grew into crystal clear red pearls.

Some are obscured by branches and leaves, while others reveal their little heads as if to signal people to pick it.

The bayberry tree grew very tall, and the heavy responsibility of picking bayberry fell on my father. My mother was responsible for catching the bayberry picked by my father. As for me, I hid under the bayberry tree to enjoy the cool air, and occasionally ate a few secretly.

There may be worms in the freshly picked bayberry, but my father said that the worms in the bayberry are edible, but my mother found it disgusting and always took it home and soaked it in salt water before eating it.

As for me, I didn't see the bug, so I just turned my back on it. I picked up a big bayberry and stuffed it into my mouth. Each thorn slid smoothly in my mouth and touched my tongue, making me feel delicate and soft.

Bite it gently, the sweet and sour juice overflows, and you swallow it down your throat. It is refreshing. The taste of sour and sweet, and sweet and sour is really unforgettable!

We finished picking the bayberries and returned home with the abundant fruits. We tasted them slowly. If we couldn't finish eating, we could freeze them in the freezer of the refrigerator.

Dad likes to drink. He always divides some bayberries and soaks them in wine. He says that drinking this kind of wine can relieve the heat.

Bayberries don’t stay fresh for long and usually go bad in a day or two, so my mother dried some of the bayberries to make dried bayberries and candied bayberries, which can be stored for a long time.
