pick longan

Naturally, the fruit has been picked several times by the villagers, and there are very few on the trees outside. Occasionally, some of them are still hanging, and they have been bitten by birds or insects.

However, they also found that there are still some fruits in some high places, but the trees are too tall to climb up.After walking for a short distance, a small grassy slope appeared. On the left side towards the village was a fault more than two meters high. There was a longan tree growing beside it. At the moment, there were still many longan fruits hanging on the branches. When Ye Sen saw it, he immediately Just cheered out.

"There's still longan here!" He wanted to run over, but was stopped by someone.

"and many more."

Ye Sen turned around and saw that it was He He, so he didn't struggle, but asked him suspiciously: "Brother He Miao, why are you dragging me?"

"Don't go there, it rained before, I wonder if it's dangerous over there?"

Others saw it too. Hearing that Ye Lin went over to push the trunk first, and then stomped on the roots and the ground a few times. Seeing that it was quite strong, he turned around and nodded to everyone, indicating that it was safe.

Only then did everyone come over with peace of mind. Fortunately, the place is relatively flat, just be careful not to slip the leaves on the ground. Naturally, the two older brothers climbed the tree, and the three younger ones stayed below. He He took advantage of the situation to look around. .

There is actually such a relatively open place here, mostly grassland, with a few dwarf trees growing sporadically. He He also noticed that there were some fruits that looked like green oranges growing on those dwarf trees. Even the leaves looked a bit like green oranges. I knew it but couldn't remember it for a while.

In the end, I couldn't help but picked one. Before I even looked at it, Ye Sen had already said in a disgusted tone, "Brother He Miao, why did you pick this? This sour fruit is not tasty, it's very sour. You If you want to eat oranges, let’s pick them at the entrance of the village, the oranges there are sweeter.”

The round face wrinkled, apparently recalling bad memories, hahaha——

Sour fruit?

It was only then that He He remembered what it was, wasn't it just a lemon, but it was a little different from the one sold in the supermarket in his previous life, at first glance it really looked like a wild orange.

He He lifted the lemon, and thrust it into Ye Sen's mouth, and saw that he turned his mouth to the side, and deliberately teased him: "Is it really sour? Did you lie to me?"

Ye Sen took a big step back, he had lingering fears about this little fruit, "Of course, I've eaten it before, it's so sour."

At that time, he was greedy and thought it was an orange, so he tasted one, and his teeth were almost sour. When he saw this kind of tree in the future, he usually took a detour.

"Yes!" He He added insult to injury very unkindly, "Who told you to eat indiscriminately? But this is also a good thing, and it is also very good for cooking and seasoning."

"Really?" Yesen expressed doubts.

He He ignored him, and just said to Zhang Xiaoxi beside him: "Xiaoxi, help me pick some of these fruits, pick bigger ones, and be careful of thorns."

Zhang Xiaoxi naturally followed suit, walked to another lemon tree and started picking lemons. When he came back, he found that he picked the big ones, which made He He very satisfied.

"This is lemon fruit. I'll share some with you when I go back and marinate it. You can use it to stir-fry vegetables or meat, but if you don't like sour food, you have to tell me."

Zhang Xiaoxi smiled shyly, and replied softly: "It's okay, you don't need to share with me, just give me a taste when the time comes, and I believe that what you make, Xiaohe, must be delicious."

He He draped his small shoulders and nodded in satisfaction, "That's for sure."

"..."

Ye Sen, who felt that he was left out, was a little unhappy, but at this time, a voice called them came from the tree.

"What are you talking about? Come and pick up the longan."

"Oh, here we come." Seeing that the two brothers over there were still picking lemons, Ye Lin had no choice but to pick them up by himself.

It's a pity that the tree trunk is quite high, and he didn't get it when he stood on tiptoe. The other side of the tree was empty. He Tian was afraid that he would accidentally slip down, so he didn't try to hand it to him, but got down from the tree by himself.

"Komori, get out of the way, I'll just go down."

Ye Sen also knew that the terrain was not good, so he obediently left the tree trunk so that he could come down, "Brother Tian, ​​you should be careful yourself."

Holding something in his hand, it is not easy to climb a tree. He Tian slowly moved down. Although climbing trees is not a problem for these village children, there is a saying that going up the mountain is easy and going down the mountain is difficult. This tree climbing It's also the same reason, you still have to be more careful when climbing down, it's no joke if you accidentally step on the air.

He He and Zhang Xiaoxi all gathered when they heard someone coming down the tree over there, and looked at He Tian worriedly, until he landed safely, the three of them were relieved, He Tian turned around and smiled at the three of them, and handed over the longan in his hand. Give them, "Try it, it's sweet."

If one person takes one branch, it may have grown for a long time, and the fruit is quite big.

Ye Sen couldn't wait to pick one, so he took a bite with the skin on, the water was full and splashed, but he didn't care about getting his collar dirty, so he ate quickly.

He He is also greedy. He hasn't eaten fruit seriously since he came here for a long time, but he still tore open the skin in half before eating. Although his fingers will get dirty, it's better than dirty clothes.

Sure enough, as his brother said, it is really super sweet!

Sweet things always make children unable to resist the temptation. After a while, they wiped out a few sticks of longan, and they still seem to be unsatisfied.

He He saw that there were still many on the tree, so he suggested: "Brother, shall we finish picking this tree?"

"No problem." He Tian readily agreed to his younger brother's request, "But we might not be able to eat so quickly after picking so many at once."

"It's okay, there are so many of us." He He waved his hand and said it's okay, "Besides, if you can't finish eating, you can dry it in the sun, and you can put it for a longer time."

The weather is so good, he is not afraid that the sun will not dry, but he is afraid that there will be less longan.

"Can you still do this?" Everyone else was surprised.

He He rubbed his nose, and then replied very bachelorly, "Okay, why not? Did I miss what I said? Brother, just tell me, will you pick the longan for me?"

"Okay, I'll listen to you, and I'll pick it for you." He Tian was really afraid that he would get angry, so he went back and climbed up the tree quickly, "Xiao Mori, hand me the basket so that you don't have to climb up the tree." climbed down."

"Oh, good." Ye Sen went to pour out the mushrooms he had picked before, and then gave him the basket.

There are few trees here, and the sun is very sunny. The three people on the ground hid under the longan tree, and brought all the pheasant mushrooms by the way. The blood was lost, and the two pheasants had no strength to struggle, so they stayed quietly. Basket, gasping with open mouth.

He He touched the colorful and long tail feathers, and felt a little pity. The pheasants caught are not easy to raise, and they are easy to die if they are frightened.

It seems that next year I will pick up more eggs and let the old hens hatch them. The three in the family have grown up a lot now. Or, why not just raise more chickens?Anyway, their family still has Uncle Ye and their family is now familiar with the shopkeeper of the Piaoxiang Restaurant in the town, so they should not worry about sales.

He He rubbed his chin and thought, the family can't just rely on the food in the field, and now their family is still heavily in debt.

But what business makes money quickly?

Sell ​​recipes like others?Then make up an ancestral secret recipe?forget it.

As soon as the idea came up, He He denied himself first.Their family has been here in Lishan Village for several generations. If someone is interested, it will be clear at once.

Digging herbs?This can be.

He He looked back at the dense forest, there might be some inside, but he had to have the courage to go in.

If you follow Uncle Ye, maybe you can, right now...

Looking down at his thin arms and legs, He He sighed in his heart. The main reason is that he is too young now. Even if he dared to enter the mountain, his family would not agree.

So, trap, you have to work harder and give us more prey, so that we can reduce the burden on my family after selling you.

"..."

He was praying here, and his body was accidentally pushed to the side. If Zhang Xiaoxi hadn't helped him, he might have fallen down.

"Yesen, what are you doing?"

He probably didn't expect this himself, Ye Sen apologized with his head down, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

"What were you thinking just now? I called you a few times and there was no response."

"Did you call me?" He He was just taken aback for a moment, but he didn't really get angry with him. When he met the other party and said he called him, he felt embarrassed and yelled before, "Aha, I was distracted just now, I didn’t hear it, what do you want me to do?”

Ye Sen rubbed the back of his head, "It's nothing, I just want to ask you if longan is really edible after drying?"

"Should, we'll know when the time comes, anyway, we don't pick it, we keep it."

It's right to think about it, anyway, if you don't pick it, it will be broken, so why not pick the fruit harder, what are you afraid of.

After waiting for a while, both of them came down from the tree, a large basket full of longan, but there were still some on the tree, but the branches grew too far, and the branches were too thin to support the weight of a person, so the two Nobody touched those.

"I can't pick them all at once," He Tian wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Some of them are too far away to be folded. And we didn't bring a few baskets. We didn't have anything in them, so it's not easy to take them back."

Ye Lin was also panting slightly, his physical strength was better than He Tian's, but it was still a bit strenuous to bring a basket of longan down the tree, even if the two of them were together.

"No hurry, pick these up today, we can come earlier tomorrow, and we can move them back after a few more walks."

He He also hurriedly said: "Lin Zi is right, I was impatient, anyway, the tree is here, we can choose another time to come again, the weather is still good now, let's get so much today."

Seeing that his younger brother said that, He Tian didn't say anything else, anyway, he thought so, "That's fine, then let's pack up and go back now, parents and the others are probably back, if Grandpa Zhang didn't see Xiaoxi, what should he do?" In a hurry."

"I'm fine, Grandpa will wait," Zhang Xiaoxi hurriedly said when he mentioned himself, but he was a little nervous, "We can walk slowly, with so many things, don't fall."

"Well, it's about, brother, you and Lin Zi raised the longan, right? Let's take this basket."

Ye Sen hurriedly opened his mouth, rushing to help get things, "I'll get the pheasant, brother Mushroom He Miao and brother Xiaoxi, you take it." He quickly untied the vines tied to the basket, and lifted the pheasant stand up.

Ye Lin saw that he was struggling to carry it, so he simply took it and hung it on the hoe, "I'll get it, you can help carry the mushroom basket, Xiaohe and the others are not as strong as you."

"Oh, alright. Brother, shall I carry the bow for you?" Yesen absolutely obeyed his elder brother's words, and after changing the basket, he proposed again with his eyes shining when he saw the bow and arrows his brother was carrying.

Ye Lin patted his head and said with a smile, "When you get older, I'll make one for you too."

"Really?" Hearing this, Ye Sen suddenly forgot the rest, just stared at his elder brother with bright eyes, and asked him in repeated voices, "Really? Brother, you said this, don't go back on your word !"

"Well, I don't regret it, but now we have to go home first."

"Ouye! Brother He Miao, I will borrow yours to play with you when the time comes, and brother Xiaoxi too. Then you will come to our village to play again." After jumping up a few times excitedly, Ye Sen grabbed He He Zhang Xiaoxi Straight up.

He He looked at his grin that almost reached the ears, and twitched the corners of his mouth, "Well, okay, let's talk about it later."

This kid is too easy to fool!
