Chapter 855: Picking Fruits

Well? I didn't expect it to be very sour, with some sweet and sour feeling, and it wasn't unpleasant.

Liu Xiuxiu thought with some surprise.

When I looked up at the peaches on the tree, most of them were still a little green, and there were few that were slightly ripe.

"If you like to eat it, just pick some and go back, like this, if it's not cooked at home, it will be just cooked and ready to eat in two or three days." Yang Ming saw that Liu Xiuxiu seemed to like it and explained: "It's good to eat ripe peaches like the ones in our hands directly, and they will be bad before they are picked back and left for a few days." ”

"Let's pick some and go back, eat some a day, and don't have to run to this mountain every day." Liu Xiuxiu proposed.

The three of them began to be in charge of a few trees, and began to pick peaches, but the peach trees did not grow tall, and the tall peach trees let Yang Ming climb up and pick them, Liu Xiuxiu and Liu Lili only need to stand on the ground and stick to those who are shorter.

Because these peach trees grow on the mountains, the sunlight is not very much, and the soil is not so fat, not to mention shorter, and the size of these peaches is about the same as an egg, maybe a little bigger, but the number of these half-baked peaches is a lot.

A few people picked the peaches in the small half basket, and when they felt that it was almost there, they stretched out their hands one after another, intending to pick a little more and go back.

A few children looked around while walking, and saw a small piece of wild strawberries, and also stopped to catch some back, these wild strawberries are also quite attractive in the village, children like, it is also a kind of small snack, but it can't be picked back for a long time, if you don't eat it quickly, it will soon be spoiled.

The weather has been quite cool these days, and Liu Xiuxiu is still thinking in her heart whether she can find some wild mushrooms on this mountain, and it is good to take things like fungus back to dry them and store them.

But I don't know if it's because of bad luck today, or because these things haven't grown, I've walked for a long time, and I haven't even seen a shadow.

Yang Ming planned to take the two little girls to pick some chestnuts and go back, but when he walked over there, he found that there were already people there.

"Lili Xiuxiu, why are you here today?"

It turned out that the man who was picking chestnuts over there was Mai Mai.

Mai Mai heard some movement over there, raised his head and looked at the few people who came in surprise.

Liu Lili hurriedly left, looked at Mai Mai and said: "I also came to pick up some chestnuts and went back, I didn't expect to meet you, come out to pick up chestnuts, why don't you wear a good hat and come over, what can I stop here?" ”

Liu Lili looked at Mai Mai on her head with some concern, and said with a little shabby straw hat.

Mai Mai was a little sour by this sudden concern.

That's right, I came out to pick chestnuts, how could I just bring a broken hat like this?

The people in the village have taught that when children go out to pick chestnuts, they must bring a hat, otherwise, the chestnuts with thorns on the crazy tree will be blown off by the wind, and if they wear a hat, they will not be pricked in the head.

Although it doesn't hurt to be pricked by this thorn, there are some relatively small thorns on it, which may be pierced into the skin, and it is not easy to pull out the qi when the time comes.

Liu Xiuxiu knew that there was a layer of thorn shells wrapped in chestnuts before, but she hadn't picked it up with her own hands, and when she looked at herself, when she didn't have any cocoons, she looked at the ground full of chestnut thorns, and suddenly became a little unhappy, and looked at the little girl in front of her, the hat couldn't block much at all, and immediately took out the hat that she hadn't put on in the frame and handed it to Mai Mai.

"You take it first, there are too many thorns on the ground, so I won't cut them here, I'll go to the side and see if there's anything else."

After saying this, Liu Xiuxiu didn't have it, and when others said something, she suddenly stuffed her hat into someone's arms, turned around and ran away.

On weekdays, there are still many children in the village who are willing to come here to pick chestnuts, so there are probably no wild fruits!

However, even if you go back to the place where you picked peaches, it is better than staying here to pick chestnuts on the ground.

Let Liu Lili and Yang Ming accompany Mai Mai to pick it up! Liu Xiuxiu thought about it like this and came to the water, squatted on the shore and washed her face, feeling much refreshed, and then took out a few more ripe peaches that she picked, put them at the water's edge to wash them, and ate two, the water here is very clear and transparent.

Liu Xiuxiu looked around, there were only a few people picking chestnuts not far away, and there were no other people around.

Liu Xiuxiu didn't want to say what to do, she wandered casually beside her, found a place to lie down and look at the sky, and was stunned for a while.

After waiting for a while, the three people over there picked up chestnuts, as if they had almost picked them up, and walked towards Liu Xiuxiu.

"Xiuxiu, if you want to pick some fruit, or I'll take you over, if I'm not mistaken, there is a road to go over, and it seems that there is a mention of a piece not far away, but the road is a little difficult to walk." Mai Mai is very grateful, just now Liu Xiuxiu lent the hat to herself, and she didn't think that Liu Xiuxiu gave her the hat because she was lazy and didn't want to pick up chestnuts, but she just felt that people wanted to help herself.

Anyway, it's still early, go over and take a look, a few people are going to follow Mai Mai, just raised their legs, haven't walked a few steps, Liu Xiuxiu felt as if she suddenly heard something, something is not right, you asked the people around you and said: "It seems to be a little moving, do you feel it?" ”

Hearing this, several people stopped and looked at each other a few times.

"Looks like there's a bit of a noise over there." Liu Lili frowned slightly, pointed in a direction and said.

Liu Xiuxiu listened to this voice as if she was getting closer and closer to herself, and suddenly remembered one thing, when she came out this morning, her mother told a few of them not to go too far and be careful of the beasts on the mountain.

"It can't be a beast from the mountain running down, right?"

Liu Xiuxiu said with some skepticism that it shouldn't be, they went out of the mountain so much today, will they still encounter fierce beasts?

"It's a pig barking!" Yang Ming moved his ears, his face changed greatly, and he shouted loudly: "Run!" What are you still doing in a daze? ”

"Xiuxiu, why don't you move!" Liu Lili walked a few steps and found that her sister didn't follow, so she hurriedly turned around to look at her, stood there stunned, and said.
