Chapter 173: Addictive Fruit

…… Ten minutes later, seeing that she had already eaten four fruits on the side, she was about to stretch out her hand to the basket Ye Jingting, and hurriedly stopped her.

Looking at Ye Jingting, who was looking at him pitifully, Li Chen said helplessly: "I can't eat anymore." ”

"Just one, the last one!" Ye Jingting raised a finger, opened her eyes wide, and said cutely.

"No, I can't. Li Chen replied very resolutely.

"It's really not negotiable?"

"No negotiation at all!"

"Well, if you don't eat it, you won't eat it. Ye Jingting pouted stupidly, reluctantly glanced at the fruit in the basket, and then slowly took her hand away from the basket.

She looked like a sulking little girl who couldn't get candy, Li Chen couldn't cry or laugh, "It's not that I won't give it to you, you have to pay attention to it, pregnant women can't eat too much at one time, they have to ......."

Without waiting for Li Chen to finish speaking, Ye Jingting took over the conversation, "Eat less and eat more, right, I can memorize it." ”

Looking at the increasingly resentful eyes, Li Chen hurriedly said: "It's not that this fruit can't be eaten in the future, there are still more in the orchard, if you want to eat it in the future, just ask the Great Sage to go up and pick it at any time." ”

"Really?" Ye Jingting stared at Li Chen suspiciously, as if to see if he was lying.

"Really, more real than real gold!"

After getting Li Chen's assurance, Ye Jingting nodded her lips and tilted her head to think about something, and only after a while did she ask, "Is there such a delicious fruit in the orchard?"

"You often go up with the Great Sage to pick fruits, can you still know?" Li Chen looked at the person in front of him in surprise.

"After I got pregnant, I rarely went up, and you don't know my mother's character, why would you let me pick fruits, and my father picked them during this time. ”

Li Chen thought about it, judging from his mother's appearance of protecting Ye Jingting everywhere, he really wouldn't let Ye Jingting go up.

"You don't know that there is such a fruit tree?" Li Chen asked as he turned his head to look at the Great Sage.

In his mind, since the great sage is so sensitive to fruits, he shouldn't know it!

After the Great Sage, who was touching his round belly, saw that Li Chen was asking about it, he didn't know if it was because he was too full or what, and he didn't speak, but just shook his head.

"No, according to your sense of smell just now, how could you not find it, it wouldn't have been secretly eaten before, and now you are afraid of being discovered, so you deliberately pretended to be?!" Li Chen muttered to himself, his eyes still slanted towards the Great Sage with suspicion.

The Great Sage was in a hurry, and hurriedly shouted with paintings, resolutely saying that it had not been up to the orchard for a long time.

Li Chen glanced at the Great Sage strangely, this monkey has changed sex? Didn't he have to go to the garden by himself every day, but now he can't go to it!

……

……

When Li's father and mother brought their sister over, Li Chen took out all the fruits.

It was strange when Li Chen let them taste the peaches, but after taking a bite, he couldn't control himself anymore and devoured them. If Li Chen didn't know the root of this fruit, Li Chen would have wondered if he had added something addictive!

Looking at his parents who didn't want to stop, Li Chen hurriedly stopped, if he continued to eat, would he have dinner!

…………

Naturally, there was some inquiry, and after Li Chen explained the origin of this fruit, Father Li sighed: "Why didn't I find out that this fruit tree has already hit fruit!"

"You subconsciously thought that you hadn't achieved results yet, so you didn't go over to see it. Li Chen complained.

"By the way, Dad, Mom, do you have anything to do tomorrow?"

"There's some farm work, what's wrong?" Father Li asked suspiciously.

"It's that most of the fruit in the orchard is already ripe, and there are even animals that have gone in to steal it, and it's a pity to keep it rotten, so I wonder if I'm going to pick the fruit tomorrow?"

"Well, it's time to pick it up. Then he asked, "What about when you take it off, and sell it in the town?"

Li Chen said without thinking: "If you don't sell it, you won't be able to earn a few oil dollars if you sell it, I just plan to give it to the old and young in the village, and the excess will be distributed to tourists as welfare." ”

"Loser. Mother Li muttered.

"Well, if you want to go to the town to sell it, you won't go, and you can give it to the village, so that they can remember the good of our family. Father Li said.

After Li Chen heard the words of his parents, his face was full of black lines.

——————

The next day, after breakfast, Li Chen stopped the animals who were looking for a shady place to escape the heat, and gave them the task of going to the orchard to help pick up fruits.

When several animals heard this, they all wailed, knowing that they didn't even want to move on this hot day, let alone help pick up fruit.

They just want to be a cute pet in a quiet corner in the shade!

When everything was ready, Li Chen picked up a pair of large baskets, and there were two sponge pads in the baskets, well... I borrowed it from Uncle Eight. There were also several baskets and a dozen small dustpans.

These small dustpans were used for these animals to shovel fruits, and they were made by Li Chen and Father Li for more than an hour yesterday with waste iron sheets.

After the whole family went up to the orchard lively, under the confused eyes of the big Fahrenheit dogs, they explained the task of going in to help pick up the fruits together.

Entering the orchard, several people went straight to the peach tree, and Li Chen, who was carrying two large baskets, also followed helplessly.

After arriving, Father Li pointed to the peach tree and said, "This is the tree, and it is the one that impresses me the most in this orchard." As he spoke, he stepped forward and patted its thick trunk.

After hearing Father Li's words, Mother Li rolled her eyes, "There are only a few big trees in the whole orchard, don't remember the big ones, can you remember the small ones?!"

Father Li saw that Mother Li had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "No, just some time ago, I didn't come up to prune the extra branches and leaves, I just cut a branch of this tree for a long time, but I couldn't cut it!"

Everyone who heard the words looked in disbelief, including Li Chen, although the peach tree was also very hard, could it still be hard?

Seeing everyone's suspicious looks, Father Li quickly walked to a low branch, pointed to this branch with a diameter of six or seven centimeters, and said, "It's this branch, and there is a hole left when I cut it at the beginning!"

When Li Chen and the others heard this, they stepped forward to watch one after another to see if it was really like what Father Li said. When I came closer, I saw that there was really an opening in the place where Father Li was pointing, and looking at the traces on it, it was indeed as if it had been slashed with countless knives.

However, Li Chen had also tried to break the small branches of this peach tree before, although it was also difficult to break, but it was not so difficult to cut off! Could it be that there was no real mutation when he broke it before?

In order to figure out this matter, Li Chen couldn't help but get closer and observe.
