My green plums are very sour

I strongly suspect that A Rui has been bribed, she seems to have completely forgotten her plan to make Ning Ran "collaborate" with us, and has been talking to Ning Ran.

"Don't worry, we won't take you to a very dangerous place. It's just playing around here."

I'm a little unhappy, now I have a sense of crisis that A Rui is about to be snatched away.So I leaned close to A Rui, and gently pinched the skin on her wrist, which made her let out a "hiss" in pain.

Fortunately, she still has a brain, and she immediately reacted when she saw me winking at her, but I saw a embarrassed expression on her face.

Sure enough, she was unreliable, a mint candy could buy her off.

A Rui looked at me for two seconds, then turned to look at Ning Ran, and closed her mouth resentfully.

I found that Ning Ran might be really not worried at all that we would deliberately tease her and take her to some places that would embarrass her.If it were me, I would definitely ask about the destination first, and then decide whether to follow.But she is completely different.

I don't know if it's because she's always been so calm, or because she trusts A Rui and me.In short, I didn't see in her a little bit of hesitation that her peers often have when facing a strange environment.This makes me feel a little boring, or rather, it is a kind of frustration of misjudgment.

At this time, I already vaguely felt that I was lacking in IQ, and I always seemed to be doing some silly and boring things.Especially when I think about these situations many years later, I really feel stupid and naive.

Hindsight, however, is of no use, and doesn't stop me from galloping down the silly road.

I originally planned to take Ning Ran to do some things that I thought she would not normally do, so as to achieve the purpose of transforming her into a friend that can be made with. By the way, let the adults see that she is the same as us of.

I have to admit that I definitely didn't have any good intentions when I came up with this idea.All this stems from children's competitive psychology and naive nature.

But age and lack of IQ caused me to miscalculate the situation from the very beginning.

A Rui quickly left the front line and I lost a great helper.And Ning Ran's own reaction made my plan unable to work.

After getting to know her longer, I gradually realized that she and my imagination were two different things.She must be blamed for this matter, the first impression given to people is too deceptive, and it must not be because I am stupid that I will be deceived.

After I pinched A Rui, she finally calmed down a bit, and the three of us walked quietly all the way to our intended destination.

While on the way, I still turned to look at Ning Ran from time to time, she always followed our pace, looking very at ease.

The place we are going to is in the east of this residential area, where there is a family with a crooked fig tree planted at the door.This is the season when the figs are ripe.

The tree is crooked from the ankle up, and I don't know if it is because of being stepped on to one side when I was young.Every year when the figs are ripe, the children around here always like to gather around the tree and look up. Once they find the ripe fruits that have turned purple, they will step on the ankles of the tree and climb up to pick them off. Tear off the peel and suck it up and eat it clean.

A Rui and I will naturally not miss these delicacies.

However, since I am relatively small, I can't grab children who are stronger than me, so I can only occasionally climb to the tree to pick a few when there are few people.

Most of the time, I buried my head in the trees and searched for them. There were a lot of overripe fruits that would fall by themselves, and most of them would be smashed into a puddle of mud. If it’s too bad, pick it up and blow the dust on the outside, gently tear off the thin layer of peel, and you can eat the sweet and soft flesh immediately.

Of course, the fruits that will drop at any time are like purple-red bombs. If one day is unlucky, it may hit your own head directly, with milky white flesh on top, sticky.Not to mention the crushed fruit all over the ground, the soles of my feet are slipping when I step down.

Climbing to a tree to pick it may not make it clean.

If you want to climb the tree, you have to use both hands and feet. If you don’t pay attention, your knees and elbows will rub a layer of dust on the tree.

Today I have no other purpose, either to let Ning Ran step on the ground, or encourage her to go up the tree to get two fruits.But I think it's more interesting to let her climb the tree.If she can't climb trees, then I have reason to laugh at her.

When we came near the fig tree, I was really proud, and for the first time I showed a good face to Ning Ran.Later Ning Ran told me that I looked very unbeatable at the time.

"Here, do you see that tree? It's the one that grows crookedly from the ankle, and the bottom of the tree is white."

Ning Ran looked over there, nodded, then turned back to look at me, as if waiting for my next words.

"That's a fig tree, how about we get some of this fruit to eat today?" Although I was asking for Ning Ran's opinion, obviously I wasn't ready to accept her objection.

This is my current plan, and she should listen to me.

A Rui already knew what we were going to do, and she agreed at the beginning.But now she looked at Ning Ran's clothes, and she was actually worried for her.

"Ning Ran, your sandals won't stand firmly on the tree. Otherwise, you'll be waiting for us. Shu Yu and I will go up the tree to pick fruits. Let's pick two more for you to taste."

When Ning Ran wasn't paying attention, I quickly wrinkled my nose and gave A Rui a look.This traitor is really too unstable.

A Rui also made the same expression as me, as if accusing me of going too far.I pulled the corners of my mouth down and turned my face away from looking at her.

I originally thought that after hearing what A Rui said, Ning Ran would immediately climb down and refuse to participate in my plan, so that I would lose money by stealing chickens.

But as I said before, Ning Ran is definitely an unknown unknown in my plan.

She actually rejected A Rui's proposal.

"No need, isn't it just picking some fruit? I really want to try it." After she finished speaking, she deliberately smiled and gave me a look, pretending to be eager to try.

"Ah?" A Rui seemed to be frightened by her, and quickly grabbed her, "Ning Ran, don't be brave, Shu Yu didn't say that you must climb the tree."

I'm actually a little scared, although I wholeheartedly hope that she will make a fool of herself as I thought, but if Ning Ran really climbs the tree and something happens to her, then I will feel very sorry.

So I had no choice but to purse my mouth and go along with A Rui in a strange way.

"That's right. If you can't do it, forget it. At worst, let's work harder. You just wait for the food below."

I think my tone must be not very kind, it doesn't sound like the truth.

Ning Ran narrowed her eyes and smiled, and walked over there with straight legs, showing off to us as she walked: "Let's go, you two don't worry about me. You may still be wearing clothes when I climbed the tree." Open crotch pants."

As if struck by lightning, A Rui and I exchanged glances and hurriedly followed.

I seem to have heard something incredible just now?What did Ning Ran say?Where does she look like she can climb trees?

Full of doubts, we followed Ning Ran to the tree, not forgetting to be careful under our feet, lest we step on the pulp and stain our shoes.

A Rui hurriedly asked: "Ning Ran, you just said you can climb trees?"

"Hmm," Ning Ran blinked, with the word "Of course" written all over his face, "Is it strange, I used to play with other children and often compete to climb trees."

"However, my parents don't know, you must keep it secret for me. They don't allow me to participate in these activities." She raised her right index finger to the middle of her lips, and she didn't look like she was lying.

My brain may really be a little insufficient, and for a while I felt as if I had heard a joke.Ah Rui, on the other hand, suddenly realized "Oh".

Ning Ran ignored A Rui and me, she had already raised her head to observe the fruit on the tree.A palm-sized face is slightly raised, looking intently for the hidden fruit among the leaves, the hair at the back of her head hangs in the air due to the movement of her head up, and it will flutter slightly when she turns the direction, like a piece of soft curtain.

At this time, I didn't fully believe her words, and I was half-believed and prepared to see her next move.

I also raised my head, looking for the target among the dense leaves.

I have no way of describing what the leaves of the fig tree look like a botanist, but I think they are very similar to the leaves of the sycamore tree, have a similar shape, and are large and can completely cover the palm of my hand.

Many of these leaves covered the branches and surrounded the tree like a giant green pom-pom.The purple-red fruit the size of a ping-pong ball is dotted among the green leaves, which can only be seen if you look closely.

A Rui was the most anxious, she kept urging us: "How is it? Have you seen the fruit?"

My neck was already a little sore, and I was about to reach out to rub it, when I saw Ning Ran pat A Rui confidently, and replied very smoothly: "I've already taken care of it, I'll go up and pick it now."

After she finished speaking, she bent down and tore off the nylon buckles on the sandals. Her white and tender feet stepped directly on the tree trunk, and her two palms also climbed onto the tree trunk. She didn't forget to make funny faces with A Rui and me.

At that moment, I almost couldn't help but applaud her.
