You Must Not Pull This Weed in the Vineyard: Sister-in-Law Started Weeding and Second Brother Hurriedly Yelled for Her to Stop
The second sister-in-law couldn't sit still and went into the vineyard to pull weeds. Seeing this, the second brother shouted: Stop, you must not pull this weed!
The second brother's grapes were just ripening, and under his careful care, the grapes were not only large but also tasted very good. So, people driving by would all stop and pick some to take back for relatives and friends to try fresh. This also filled the second brother's heart with happiness.
As it happened, yesterday the weather was especially nice, and the second sister-in-law had nothing to do at home, so she went to wander around the vineyard. When she got to their own vineyard, the second sister-in-law found that their vineyard was overgrown with weeds, and one kind of weed was especially abundant. The second sister-in-law thought that to keep people picking grapes from tripping, she, unable to sit still, began pulling weeds.
At that moment, the second brother, who had just come back from selling grapes, saw her. From far away he stood at the edge of the field and shouted: Stop quickly! Stop quickly! You must not pull this weed! When the second sister-in-law heard this, she said impatiently that pulling weeds was somehow wrong. I can't even be bothered to do it. Other people's vineyards are clean and tidy; only you are the laziest, and you can't even manage your own vineyard well.
It turned out that this was not actually the case. The weeds in the vineyard were carefully arranged by the second brother, and he had planted them himself. This weed is called zhi jia cao (garden balsam). Henna flower, also known as Impatiens balsamina, zhi jia cao flower, has flowers shaped like butterflies, and the flower colors include pink, bright red, purple, white-yellow, sprinkled gold, and more, and it readily mutates. Because its flower head, wings, tail, and feet all tilt upward like a phoenix, it is also called jin feng hua (golden phoenix flower).
Because grapes in summer are very prone to anthracnose, the garden balsam the second brother planted was meant to better prevent the grapes from being harmed by diseases and insects. This is because the flowers of garden balsam have the effect of driving away mosquitoes and insects. Especially when the humidity is relatively high, on foggy days, grapes are very prone to anthracnose on foggy days. By planting garden balsam in the vineyard, the flowers can better disperse the fog!
By doing this, the second brother also kept his grapes free of pesticide spraying, made the grapes taste better, and made friends who bought grapes feel more at ease and more reassured when eating them. So, in such hot summer weather, to prevent grapes from getting sick, what other little tips do you have? How can we make our grapes taste better without using pesticides?
