Chapter 664: Picking Fruit and Eating Grapes

Zhang Xiaoxue handed the small bamboo basket she took out to Xin'er, and said with a smile: "Here, take this small bamboo basket, wait for the fruit to be picked, and then put the fruit into the bamboo basket." ”

Xin'er happily took the small bamboo basket handed to her by Zhang Xiaoxue, and looked at the bamboo basket up and down, and praised the small bamboo basket for being very beautiful and exquisite.

"Your Royal Highness Ze, Princess Xin and Lord Xueshan want to pick fruits, I asked my daughter-in-law and little sister to take care of them, and when I go back to get the fishing rod, let's go to the pond to catch a few fish, and it can be used for cooking at noon, what do you think?"

The man surnamed Liang is the eldest son of the head of the village in this royal farm, called Liang Bingkuan, because he also heard Yu Wenze introduce Zhang Xiaoxue's identity on the way, and because Yu Wenze did not see him along the way.

Therefore, at this time, the speech is not so restrained, remembering that when I was a child, I often went to the pond with His Royal Highness Ze to fish, so I had a proposal at this moment.

"Okay!"

When Yu Wenze heard Brother Liang mention fishing, he remembered that when they were young, they had all kinds of fun in the farm, and happily agreed.

Xin'er heard that Yu Wenze was going to fish by the pond, so she didn't go to the fruit forest with them to pick fruits, but she was also very interested in fishing activities.

I was a little entangled in my heart, whether it was better to pick fruits or go fishing.

After she looked down at the delicate little bamboo basket in her hand, she decided to pick the fruit first, and then go fishing and playing in the pond.

After thinking about it, Xin'er couldn't wait to pull Zhang Xiaoxue, laughing all the way to the fruit forest, Zhang Xiaoxue looked back at Yu Wenze with a smile.

Seeing Yu Wenze bowing to them, he turned around and walked with Xin'er to the fruit forest, which was dotted with many different fruit trees.

There are apples, pears, peaches, plums, persimmons, loquats, oranges, all the way, Zhang Xiaoxue picked several ripe fruits, picked up the big and good-looking ones into the bamboo basket.

The fruit trees planted here look a little old, the trunks are thick, and they are relatively tall, Xin'er is not tall enough, so she can only tilt her head and look at the fruit hanging high on the branches from under the tree.

Even if you jump up on your little feet, it is difficult to pick the fruit on it, which makes Boss Xin'er unhappy.

Especially next to Zhang Xiaoxue, when she saw that she was in a hurry when she couldn't reach the fruit, she actually stayed aside and laughed at her with a wicked smile.

As soon as Zhang Xiaoxue stretched out her hand, she reached a big red peach on it, picked it off and handed it to Xin'er, "You are still young now, and you are too short to reach the fruit on the tree, so I will pick it and you will be responsible for holding it, right?"

Xin'er was very unhappy in the face of Zhang Xiaoxue's proposal, pouting and shouting with some dissatisfaction: "Oh, only if you pick the fruit with your own hands, the fruit in your mouth is the sweetest, and what you pick is definitely different from what I pick." ”

"Hehe, then I have to bear some burden and hold you, you can quickly pick a few fruits. ”

Zhang Xiaoxue smiled and didn't plan to tease Xin'er anymore, so she planned to pick up Xin'er so that she could also reach the fruit on the tree and satisfy Xin'er's desire to pick the fruit herself.

Xin'er was very moved by this proposal, but looking at Zhang Xiaoxue's small body opposite, she hesitated a little.

I don't know if the county lord of Xueshan can easily pick her up, although she is not very old, she has not found someone to hold her in the past two years.

Zhang Xiaoxue didn't know what Xin'er was thinking, she didn't doubt her strength at all, after all, Xin'er was not fat, and it was very easy to pick her up.

I couldn't help but say that I stepped forward and scooped Xin'er up, hehe, it is true that she still has the strength now, and it is not easy to pick up Xin'er.

"Hurry up, don't stiffen, which fruit do you like, quickly pick it off and put it in the bamboo basket! I can't hold you for too long, my arm is sore from being tired, you have to help me rub it when the time comes." ”

Xin'er's body in her arms was a little stiff, but Zhang Xiaoxue could feel it, so she smiled and joked in a very brisk tone.

"Oh, okay, I'll pick it up. ”

Xin'er took Zhang Xiaoxue's words seriously, and she was afraid that she would be tired enough to hold her Xiaoxue sister, so she hurriedly agreed, her eyes were firmly fixed on the fruit, she picked a few big and red peaches, used all her hands, and picked a few peaches into the bamboo basket.

Liang Bingkuan's daughter-in-law and his sister-in-law also hurried over at this time, and the younger girl should be Liang Bingkuan's sister, she carried a basket in one hand.

Another young daughter-in-law, who is about 20 years old, holds two trapezoidal high stools in her hands, which should be easy to step on to pick fruit.

Seeing the two of them, Zhang Xiaoxue put down the Xin'er who was hugging her, and after the two stepped forward to see them, Zhang Xiaoxue pointed to the high stool and said to Xin'er.

"Hehe, Xin'er, look at the stool they are holding in their hands, now you don't need me to hug you, just step on the stool, let the two of them hold on to the side, you can easily pick the fruit. ”

"Well, this stool is good. ”

Under Zhang Xiaoxue's instructions, the two people who came carefully helped Xin'er, and let Xin'er step on the high stool and pick up the fruit.

Of course, they did not only pick fruit under one tree, but now they have picked some peaches, apples, and oranges that they can eat, and as they go deeper into the fruit grove, there is a small vineyard not far ahead.

Entering the vineyard, using scissors placed in a bamboo basket, a few purple bunches of grapes were cut, because there was a clear stream flowing right next to the vineyard.

It should be the mountain spring water flowing down from the mountains far away, and the water is very clear and clean, so Zhang Xiaoxue directly picked up a bunch of grapes, washed them in the stream, and picked a grape and put it in his mouth.

It looks like the grapes are big and purple, and the taste is good, but when you eat it, it is sweet and sour, and the grape flavor is quite strong, and the grapes produced in the farm, of course, are not on the same level, and the taste is much worse.

Zhang Xiaoxue is usually used to eating grapes from the farm, and her taste has long been raised a lot, and after eating a grape, she didn't continue to eat it.

"Sister Xiaoxue, I want to eat it too. ”

Xin'er was next to Zhang Xiaoxue, and when she saw Zhang Xiaoxue washing the grapes, she ate the grapes directly by the stream, and she also felt that her saliva secreted a lot.

"Here you go. ”

The grapes were not quite to Zhang Xiaoxue's taste, so Zhang Xiaoxue didn't keep anything at all, and happily handed all the washed bunches of grapes to Xin'er.
