Zanthoxylum bungeanum or hemp on the old tree?

I planted a pepper tree in the green space downstairs.

In autumn, the pepper with a big grain of rice is red, poking around in the green leaves, which is very beautiful.

At this time, my mother is going to pick peppers.

Picking peppers is not easy.

The old lady's pepper tree never uses pesticides. Under it, most of the leaves are sticky, and the insects invisible to the naked eye are there, and the scalp is numb when you think about it.

Bugs or small things. What scares people is the triangular thorns on the branches. The tree is old, the branches are hard, the thorns are harder, and the fruit stalks in the leaves are shorter. If you pull out branches and pick peppers, you will be stabbed if you are not careful.

My mother was low, so I grabbed the branch and pulled it down hard. My father and I looked up and stretched out our arms to pick it up. Dad was thick-skinned and found the pepper with his bare hands. He grabbed the fruit stalk and broke the pepper easily. I wear thick gloves and cut them with scissors. Either I cut it crooked, or I can't catch the cut pepper. I took off my gloves and learned from my father. As a result, I was stabbed severely. It hurts.

There are also two Zanthoxylum bungeanum trees in the green space, which my mother said were from the opposite unit. They are not tall, standing side by side, with branches and leaves centered on the trunk, and the leaves are shiny green. Red pepper seeds are juxtaposed on the branches of fruit stalks, proudly above the green leaves, like red corals. Whether you break them by hand or cut them with scissors, it is not difficult to pick them up.

Why is my pepper not as long as others? Zanthoxylum bungeanum seeds are hidden in branches and leaves, and only four or five seeds are produced in one stem, and some even have only one seed.

We three 2 10-year-olds, with great efforts, finally picked up the peppers and picked up the things that fell on the ground. At first glance, the output is only enough to spread a thin layer of shoe boxes.

But that smell is totally marijuana. Every time you pick one, your tongue will get cold and numb. Even as I write this article, the smell of marijuana has circled my tongue again. The tongue is no longer a tongue, like a gel rich in water, which makes people swallow.

The older, the wiser. Where's pepper? Is it also the hemp of the old tree?
