Who made the Song family’s food so delicious?

Bai Shuting also came over to have breakfast. He wanted to join us today too.

Ji Yuhui had to be on duty, so Si Fengbi and Bai Ruanruan made an appointment to go to the Garden of Dreams.

Mr. Qi and Mr. Mo went to the retirement home to visit an old friend and spend a day there. They agreed to come back in the evening.

Bai Qingxia and Song Hao went to Beijing University together to meet their former colleagues and friends.

Everyone is busy with their own things, knows what each other is doing, and doesn't disturb or interfere with each other. That's good.

Just after finishing the meal, He Changzheng came in a jeep.

It is certainly better to have a car than to ride a bike, as the place is not close.

Ziyi said, "The last time Gubo and I rode our bikes, our butts got numb."

The old man rolled his eyes at Ziyi and said, "It's you who insisted on riding a bike. I told you to rent a donkey cart to cross the river, but you refused to listen."

Ziyi scratched his head. "I didn't know it was so far away. I thought it was the same place we went on our spring outing."

Not only did the journey turn out to be twice as long, but he also had to carry Uncle Gu. If he hadn't been trained and his strength and endurance were much greater than those of ordinary people, he would have definitely collapsed before reaching that place.

He Changzheng saw that Song Yun and the others had prepared baskets and sacks. He came empty-handed and just wanted to get here quickly so that he could see Song Yun earlier. He didn't think about anything else at all.

"Are there any extra baskets?"

There were no extra baskets, but there were sacks. Song Yun took two for He Changzheng and said, "You're mainly picking tea leaves, so sacks are more suitable."

The group set off, drove out of the city, out of the suburbs of Beijing, and headed all the way to Beituo Mountain in the southwest.

The car could not move forward near Beituo Mountain because the road was dangerous and narrow, so we had to walk. Fortunately, the distance was not far, and it only took about ten minutes to reach Beituo Mountain.

The old man said, "Although this Beituo Mountain isn't a primeval forest, it's said that ferocious beasts roam here. Few residents come here, so the scenery in the mountains is still relatively primitive. Be careful when you enter, and don't get bitten by poisonous insects or anything like that."

Song Yun took out the insect repellent powder and sprinkled some on everyone. "With this, poisonous insects won't come around us."

The mountain forest scenery in the north in winter is still relatively desolate, and there are few green trees and plants.

That ancient tea tree is one of them, which is why they were able to find the ancient tea tree in the deep forest because there are so few green trees around it.

If you come here in summer, it will probably be difficult to find ancient tea trees in the forest.

He Changzheng was curious, "Aren't tea trees harvested for their young leaves in spring? It's not even spring yet, and the weather is so cold. How can tea trees have young leaves?"

"Who said there are young leaves on this ancient tea tree now? Does the tea you drink look like young leaves?" the old man asked back.

He Changzheng recalled that the leaves in the tea bowl were quite large and dark in color, and they certainly did not look like tender leaves.

Song Yun explained, "Due to different varieties of tea trees, older leaves are more fragrant than younger leaves."

He Changzheng suddenly realized, "Oh, that's it." He really didn't understand.

Song Yun and Old Man went into the mountains not only to pick tea, but also to pick herbs. Although there were few herbs in this weather, there were some cold-resistant herbs that stood stubbornly in the cold wind of the mountains.

When Ziyi was helping Song Yun dig herbs, he accidentally found a silver-gray puppy. The puppy could not even stand steadily, whimpering helplessly and shivering with cold.

"Sister, there's a puppy here."

Song Yun walked over and took a look, frowning, "It's unlikely there are puppies in this place. It's probably a wolf cub. Its mother might be nearby."

Bai Shuting on the other end suddenly shouted, "Come and see, there's a dead dog here, it's quite big!"
