"You don't eat chestnuts?"

Tao Xi was shocked, and she was even more sure that this was an alternate era, because she remembered that some ancients could eat chestnuts in some eras.

Jian Shiming shook his head, "We don't have much of this thing in Beicheng, so I haven't seen it." ”

As for whether the people in Yunxian County eat it or not, he doesn't know.

"This thing can be eaten!"

Tao Xi raised his eyes and looked at the several large chestnut trees next to him, he couldn't help himself with excitement, and his little face turned red because of excitement.

"How to eat?"

Jian Shiming looked at the hairball under his feet suspiciously, which made Tao Xi feel a little cute.

She sneered, "Now, look at it." ”

As she spoke, she used the stone next to her to gently rub off the hairball on the outside of the chestnut, revealing the brown chestnut inside.

She directly and heroically bit open the chestnut skin with her teeth, revealing the pale yellow flesh inside, she broke half of it and handed it to Jian Shiming.

"Come, taste it."

She eats the remaining half raw, and although the taste is not as sweet as that of modern chestnuts, it is not bad, and it is also a good thing to fill your stomach.

Jian Shiming now trusts Tao Xi very much, and when he heard the words, he chewed it, and it felt similar to eating a raw sweet potato, with a slight sweetness.

His eyes suddenly lit up, and he said curiously: "You can really eat it!" ”

Jian Shiming was also excited, he raised his eyes to look at the few trees next to him, there were many chestnuts on the trees, and even on the ground, many of them had fallen.

Looks like they don't have to worry about winter!

"Come, I'll beat chestnuts on it, you avoid it first, and we'll pick it up in the back basket together!"

Tao Xi climbed the tree in three or two clicks, holding a long wooden stick in her hand, and patting chestnuts on the tree.

The chestnuts fell directly to the ground, and soon the ground was covered with chestnuts.

Seeing her heroic appearance, Jian Shiming's heart was pounding, and he tried his best to suppress the strange emotion, silently picking up the chestnuts.

It seems that she has always been optimistic, optimistic to lead everyone better and better.

Tao Xi jumped down from the tree neatly, and while bending his back to throw chestnuts in the basket, he quietly put them into the space.

There's no chestnut tree in the space, and now that she has a wood-based ability, she can't afford to waste points when she buys seeds.

The two worked together to pick up a basket of chestnuts, and Tao Xi said to Jian Shiming; "You wait for me here, I'll go back first, and I'll take Erni with me later."

"Okay."

Jian Shiming responded without hesitation, Tao Xi suddenly hesitated, thought about it, and said:

"Forget it, it's better for you to go back, it's not safe to go deep into the old forest."

Although the male protagonists in the book have great luck, Tao Xi doesn't dare to take risks, anyway, she can protect herself.

Hearing this, Jian Shiming also nodded in agreement, but knowing that he had little strength, Tao Xi only asked him to carry the basket back, but the rabbit stayed.

As soon as Jian Shiming left, she hurriedly threw the rabbit into the space, and then piled all the chestnuts on the ground together.

Jian Shiming's footsteps were slower, and Tao Xi felt that he had waited for almost an hour before he saw Jian Shiming and Jian Erni coming late.

Jian Erni took a few sacks that Tao Xi bought at the beginning, and smiled.

"Sister-in-law, I heard that you have found delicious food again, you are so amazing!"

"Twenty points!"

"Quick, let's bag first."

Tao Xi took the sack of chestnuts and did not forget to explain.

"Chestnut shells can be used medicinally, let's dry and collect them when we go back."

"Well, I don't understand anyway, I listen to my sister-in-law."

Jian Erni followed Tao Xi happily, and Jian Shiming also helped quickly.

The three of them quickly picked up three sacks of chestnuts, but the chestnuts on a tree had not yet been picked up, and Tao Xi was not greedy.

"Xianggong, let's tell Lizheng the news later, and then let's collect some chestnuts together."

There are so many chestnuts, even if their family picks them up, they have to eat them for a long time, and Tao Xi doesn't want to eat chestnuts until he vomits.

Moreover, she always remembers to give everyone in the village a proper favor.

"Okay."

Jian Shiming is obedient, he is not greedy, now they have the love of the villagers, help them more, in fact, they are also helping themselves.

Jian Erni was quite reluctant, she whispered, "Big brother and sister-in-law, if we pick up all these chestnuts ourselves, we should be able to eat them for a long time." ”

"I can eat it for a long time."

Tao Xi raised his hand and rubbed the top of Jian Erni's hair, "If you save some food, you can still eat it until next year."

But at that time, our sweet potatoes and potatoes were ripe, and chestnuts were not so unusual.

You have also seen that even if we have settled down, there are still villagers who are starving to death, and we can help ourselves by pulling others while ensuring that we are hungry. ”

"Erni, listen to your sister-in-law."

Jian Shiming is actually not a kind person, but now he gradually understands Tao Xi's theory.

If it weren't for Tao Xi's desire to help the villagers more, they wouldn't be so polite to their family's weak, sick and disabled.

Even a lot of people are grateful to them, just because they are now penniless and not grateful for their abilities.

"yes, I see."

Jian Erni nodded sensibly, and the three of them decided to go home, just seeing that Jian Shiming was struggling to carry a sack, Tao Xi gave the basket to Jian Shiming.

The rabbit had been put in by her, but the back basket was still not as heavy as the sack, and she carried a sack in one hand.

The three of them walked outside, and it was almost time to eat, and everyone had almost already descended the mountain, and their family lived at the foot of the mountain, so there were few people to see.

However, there are also people who see it, and they are amazed when they see them carrying things in sacks.

Jian Shiyi greeted them at the door, and when he saw this scene, he immediately trotted to help Tao Xi.

"Little brother, don't come here, these hairy ball shells are very prickly."

Tao Xi avoided Jian Shiyi, and Jian Shiyi could only sigh regretfully, "I also want to help my sister-in-law." ”

He also wanted to go to the mountains, but unfortunately the eldest brother didn't let him.

"You and your second brother are peeling chestnuts at home."

Tao Xi smiled, put down the sack, and accepted the rainbow farts of her younger brothers and sisters, and she taught them to remove the outer layer of chestnut furballs.

Pour all the chestnuts on the ground, leaving Jian Shiyi and Jian Shiwu to deal with them at home, Tao Xi and Jian Shiming took a few samples and found Lizheng.

Li Zheng and they were eating at home, and on the table was a bowl of sparse wild vegetable soup, which was clear and clear.

Tao Xi's heart was sour, no wonder the people in Taomu Village were all unmotivated, they were all hungry.

People in the Dafeng Dynasty starved to death every day, and people in their Taomu Village often starved to death.

Seeing that it was them, Li Zheng was very enthusiastic, "Have you eaten, haven't you eaten here." ”

Although Mrs. Lizheng was a little reluctant, she was very generous to Tao Xi, and said with a smile:

"Yes, let's eat here."

She said that she was going to get a bowl, and now every household either uses a bamboo tube or a wooden bowl and wooden chopsticks, which can make do.

"No need, thank you Lizheng, my lady has good news to tell you, that's why I'm in such a hurry to come to you."

Jian Shiming smiled softly and left the opportunity to play to Tao Xi.
