四月的一天,妈妈在院里种下了几颗丝瓜籽。经过好几场春雨的滋润,丝瓜苗才慢慢地钻出泥土,两瓣坚挺肥厚的子叶直指两侧,形状就像平时吃的豆芽。不过丝瓜芽显得稍大些,并且颜色也不是嫩黄的,而是深沉的墨绿色,上面一条条灰白的脉络清晰可见。 One day in April, my mother planted a few loofah seeds in the yard. After a few spring rains, the loofah seedlings slowly drilled out of the soil, and the two strong, thick cotyledons pointed to both sides, shaped like the usual bean sprouts. However, loofah buds appear to be slightly larger, and the color is not yellowish, but deep dark green, with a gray veins clearly visible above.
