Speaking of prickly pear, it may be the most common and unique fruit on this land in Guizhou.

The memory of prickly pear has long been rooted in the hearts of many people. The sour and astringent feeling is a childlike charm, youth, and even an indelible concern in life.

Whenever the colorful flowers gradually fade out of people's sight at the turn of spring and summer, the prickly pear blossom quietly blooms, stretching its delicate flowers to the fullest in the mountains and villages.

As a result, the prickly pear gained the nickname "Sending Spring Back".

In autumn, when the prickly pear ripens, the golden fruits are dotted with mottled mountains. At this moment, the prickly pear was in its most sweet season. Pedestrians and innocent shepherd children in the mountains picked a few fruits, carefully rubbed off the thorns, and then placed them in their mouths. Suddenly, the taste returned sweet and their spirits were refreshed.

In spring, the blooming prickly pear blossoms release the heat of youth, while in summer, the golden prickly pear precipitates a mature atmosphere.

Next, what I want to talk about is a father and son, two generations of inseparable bond with Cili.

One of the protagonists of the story is Cai Lao. Cai Lao, 67 years old this year, is an expert dedicated to the study of prickly pear. He was born and raised in Guizhou. After working, I have been engaged in research on prickly pear, and my feelings for prickly pear are like mature prickly pear fruits, rich and profound.

Next, what I want to talk about is a father and son, two generations of inseparable bond with Cili.

One of the protagonists of the story is Cai Lao. Cai Lao, 67 years old this year, is an expert dedicated to the study of prickly pear. He was born and raised in Guizhou. After working, I have been engaged in research on prickly pear, and my feelings for prickly pear are like mature prickly pear fruits, rich and profound.

The elderly family originated in Jiangxi and was born before the Xinhai Revolution. They are now 107 years old and can be said to have witnessed the changes in modern Chinese history. When I was young, due to my good family background, I read a book and later became an engineering technician. During the Anti Japanese War, I was also responsible for the maintenance of anti Japanese roads in Wuhan. After liberation, the elderly were assigned to the Transportation Department of Guizhou Province to engage in highway construction. From then on, it remained rooted in Guizhou until retirement in 1975. Elderly people do not smoke or drink alcohol, and they are also very particular about their diet, with a particular emphasis on health preservation.

They have always been in good health and do not get sick.

When it comes to prickly pears, the elderly often say, "In this lifetime, it can be considered that we have formed a fate with them

During Cai Lao's time studying prickly pear fruits, he occasionally brought back some of his own developed prickly pear preserved fruits and juice from the laboratory. Upon tasting them, the elderly immediately couldn't put down their love for these unique delicacies.

With the deepening of research and development, the prickly pear fruit has been continuously improved, with better taste and higher effective nutrients. The "taste" brought back by Cai Lao is also constantly being renovated. Of course, every time he brought back the fruit, Cai Lao's father became the "tester" without hesitation. Not to mention, the elderly have indeed put forward many good opinions, which have brought a lot of inspiration to Cai Lao's research.

In this kind of "upgrade alternation", the topics between father and son are becoming more and more common, and also becoming more and more tacit.

Whenever I recall that period of time, Cai Lao's mouth always unconsciously exudes a rare smile.

......

Time is passing day by day in such a plain and warm atmosphere.

Although achievements have been made in the research and development of prickly pear, these achievements have been locked in the laboratory and have not been well put into commercial production. I have studied things for a lifetime and have not been able to let more people understand and experience them, which is a great regret for Mr. Cai. Perhaps due to such a regret, after Cai Lao retired, when Chen Lin, the person in charge of Cili, found him that day, it was like meeting Boya Ziqi. Their shared interest in Cili made the two rare "confidants".

Accepted Chen Lin's invitation, Cai Lao came to Guizhou Tianci Li Company. Here, he once again entered the laboratory and engaged in the research and development of the "Tianci Li" prickly pear series products. Some people also ask, 'What are you trying to do when you're retired and not enjoying your leisure time at home?'? At this moment, the phone rang, and it was my father from far away in Hainan who called. Remember to send me more prickly pear juice, the last one is almost finished. "The old man's voice on the other end of the phone was a bit urgent.

Originally, my father, who had been recuperating in Hainan for a long time, couldn't do without the "longevity fruit" of prickly pear. Every year, I would invite Mr. Cai to bring some Tianci Li lozenges and juice, which has become a popular "health secret" among the elderly.

Upon hearing this, we will no longer pursue further questions.

Cili, this small fruit, has already tightly linked two generations together and can no longer be separated.

The medicinal value of Rosa roxburghii: Rosa roxburghii has a high medicinal value, and its flowers, leaves, fruits, and seeds can be used as medicine, with the effects of strengthening the stomach, reducing digestion, nourishing, and stopping diarrhea.

It also has antiviral and anti-radiation effects, and is widely used in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular, digestive system, and various tumor diseases.

Mature Rosa roxburghii has a plump flesh, a sour and sweet taste, and the fruit contains sugar, vitamins, carotenoids, organic acids, over 20 amino acids, more than 10 beneficial trace elements for the human body, as well as peroxidase.

Especially the vitamin C content is extremely high, which is currently the highest among fruits, with an average content of about 2500 milligrams per 100 grams of fresh fruit, 50 times that of citrus and 12 times that of kiwifruit, earning the reputation of "king of vitamin C".

Cili fruit also has high nutritional and medical value, with a sour and astringent taste; It has the functions of dissipating food, strengthening the spleen, astringent and relieving diarrhea, etc;

In clinical practice, VC is used as an auxiliary drug for acute and chronic infectious diseases and septic shock, especially for patients with chronic infectious diseases (such as tuberculosis) with long-term fever, and the demand is more than twice that of ordinary people. Taking C1 grams of vitamin daily can prevent colds, while taking C6 grams of vitamin has therapeutic effects on colds.
