Happiness and envy (2)

"Mother, are these strawberries? Why are they green?" Fu Qiuyi asked her mother as she looked at the half-ripe strawberries. She said to her mother, "Strawberries are red right?" 

"They must be unripe strawberries," replied Eldest Madam Fu as she looked at the half-green and half-red strawberry. "Don't eat the unripe one, they must be sour." 

The strawberries that fluttered on the small and slender branches midst the green leaves, looked really cute. Eldest Madam Fu did not want her daughters, nephews and nieces to pick up the unripe one. It will only be a waste of money. Not to mention they would make a fuss if they were to eat a sour strawberry.
