Chapter 9: Apples

"Xiao Huang, do you think this is some kind of love and hatred!"

Cai Yuanqi entered the space and sat on the edge of the field with his legs crossed, holding his cheeks and opening his mouth worriedly, "Cai Yuanxuan and Cai Yuanen can't be born to the Gu family, right?" ”

Xiao Huang glanced at her, "Master, those are your two brothers, don't think about any bloody dramas." ”

Cai Yuanqi snorted, she didn't expect Cai Yuanxuan to be so ruthless, and directly used the little fat dun to deal with the landlord's wife, who let it be this little chubby dun who pushed Cai Yuanqi before and injured his head.

"Your eldest brother seems to be a bit ruthless."

Xiao Huang added, "But I like it." ”

Cai Yuanqi is also very curious, how did Cai Fugui and the Gu family give birth to this black-bellied eldest brother, fortunately, this eldest brother is still a Gu family.

You must know that it is definitely better to be able to return to the landlord's house than to stay in this dilapidated house.

"What about the flowers?"

Cai Yuanqi gave full play to his advantages, and when he was being held by Cai Yuanxuan, he also searched from the garden and loaded a few seemingly expensive flowers and trees into the space!

"Only one is a golden laurel tree, and the other two are apple trees."

Apple tree?

Cai Yuanji's eyes lit up, picked up a hoe and dug three pits, and planted apple trees and golden laurel trees in front of the homestay.

"Apple tree: Rosaceae, rich in minerals and vitamins. The ripening period is 70 days, and one tree obtains five drops of aura. ”

"Jin Gui: Cinnamon family, rich aroma, purifies dust, and obtains two drops of aura."

It takes 70 days for an apple tree to ripen.

Cai Yuan swallowed her saliva, she looked up at the apple sapling, it would take a few months before she could eat the apple.

Xiao Huang heard Cai Yuanqi's thoughts and said, "Master, a drop of spiritual energy can catalyze an apple tree." ”

Cai Yuanqi immediately ripened an apple tree, only to see that the apple tree, which was originally just a small branch, had grown into a towering tree seven or eight meters high in the blink of an eye, with lush leaves, and red apples were soon swaying between the green leaves, which was mouth-watering.

"How do you take this off?"

As soon as Cai Yuanqi's words fell, an apple fell into the palm of her hand.

She took a hard bite of the apple, the crisp sweet juice echoed in her mouth, Cai Yuanqi didn't expect that she would have the opportunity to eat the apple.

Cai Yuanqi picked another apple and left the space, she looked sideways at Cai Yuanxuan who was holding her, with a calm expression on her somewhat pale face.

"Big brother, you let me down."

Cai Yuanqi slid off him with his calves upside down, but he didn't expect the apple in his sleeve to fall down.

The scene once fell into an embarrassing situation, this is the rhythm of almost falling off the horse!

Cai Yuanxuan raised his eyebrows and looked at her.

Cai Yuanqi swallowed her saliva, she was still thinking about how to find an excuse to take out the apple, why did it fall directly!

"Where did you get the apples?"

Cai Yuanqi quickly bent down to pick it up, wiped the apple with his sleeve and handed it to Cai Yuanxuan, "This is the uncle who sold the candy gave it to me, and gave me five cents." ”

Now I can only use that bearded uncle as an excuse.

Cai Yuanxuan didn't doubt it, took the apple and stuffed it into his sleeve pocket, "Let's take it home and eat it with my parents." ”

"Good!"

Cai Yuanqi breathed a sigh of relief, and followed closely with a small tug.

When they returned home, the whole yard had been completely renovated, a yellow mud grass hut had been erected on the stone mill where they had cooked, and the windows that had leaked before had been blocked by dry branches.

"Where have you been?"

Cai Yuanen sat on the small bench with Erlang's legs crossed to bask in the sun, and snorted dissatisfiedly when he saw the two of them coming back, "Big brother loves to take the little fat man without me." ”

Cai Yuanxuan glanced at him and raised his leg to enter the house.

Cai Yuanen took the opportunity to grab Cai Yuanqi's little tug, "Let's go, roast duck eggs for me." ”

"Big brother, second brother, he bullied me, don't ......"

Cai Yuanqi stretched out his little fat hand to pull Cai Yuanxuan, who entered the door, but Cai Yuanen covered his mouth, and rushed towards the outside of the courtyard with her!

Cai Yuanxuan looked at the two people who were making trouble, and entered the house with a doting smile.

Near evening, Cai Yuanqi made lunch, although there was no stove in the grass shed, Cai Fugui trimmed the entire stone mill, Cai Yuanqi could stand on the stone on one side to cook.

She first blanched the previous cabbage, then cut the roasted wild duck eggs into small pieces with stone slices and threw them into the cabbage, sprinkled a little salt and stirred well.

Cai Yuanqi replaced the water in the crockpot with the water in the space, made a duck egg and wild vegetable soup, and finally cut the apples into cubes and put them on the plate.

After eating, the afterglow of the setting sun fell.

Cai Yuanqi sat on the dry branch stool specially made for her by Cai Fugui, and cut the red rope in her hand neatly with her small hands, and soon a braided bracelet appeared in her palm.

"Dad, you see Chubby made a bracelet!"

Cai Yuanen fussed and picked up the red rope and ran to show off in front of Cai Fugui, who was still digging the ground, "Our little sister is out of breath!" ”

Cai Fugui wiped a handful of sweat, wanting to touch the bracelet but was afraid of getting dirty, his chubby face was full of pride, "That's not it, your sister has been smarter than you since she was a child." ”

"Dad, I'm also very good."

Cai Yuanen snorted, and was about to put the bracelet on his hand, but his head was slapped by Cai Fugui, "Put it back there, don't get dirty." ”

"Dad, it's okay, the second brother knows the severity."

Cai Yuanqi made up a simple bracelet as he spoke, wanting to try it on his wrist, but felt that the size might be a little small.

Gu Shi next to him was sitting on the stone sewing clothes for Cai Yuanen, and Cai Yuanqi came to her with a small stool, "Mother, give me your hand." ”

After Cai Yuanen measured Gu's wrist, he lowered his head and continued to weave.

Gu Shi said gently, "Nothing, you can bring the red rope yourself, my mother will work with waste." ”

"Mother, I'm going to sell these for money."

Cai Yuanqi raised the red rope in his hand and showed the adjustable red rope in front of Gu.

As soon as these words came out, everyone else in the courtyard was shocked.

Cai Fugui frowned, rubbed his hands and stepped forward and said, "Good girl, my father doesn't want you to make money, you just follow your mother to clean up the house at home, okay?" ”

Cai Yuanxuan put down the book in his hand and nodded, "Yes, eldest brother can learn to cook." ”

"Then, then I can go pick wild vegetables."

Cai Yuanen patted his small chest.

Gu's eyes were slightly red, and he hugged Cai Yuanqi, "My mother can do needlework, and she can embroider handkerchiefs and sell them in the town." ”

"Dad, this braided red rope is not tired, and they must like it if I made it."

Cai Yuanqi raised the red rope in his hand and looked at a few people on the side, waving his little hand excitedly.

"Beautiful."

Cai Yuanxuan smiled, picked up Cai Yuanqi neatly, and Gu took all the remaining red ropes from Cai Yuanqi and put them into the house.

"Mother!"

Cai Yuanqi didn't expect that her money-making career would be stifled, and she watched the money she was about to get drift away.

"Children's families, where do you need to worry about at home."

Cai Yuanxuan rubbed her hair and said with a smile.

"That's it, let's bring it yourself!"

Cai Yuanen put the red rope in his hand on Cai Yuanqi's white little arm.
