The persimmons growing on the cliff edge are thriving, their bright yellow color making them look quite adorable.

They look like little lanterns hanging on the branches of this tree.

Zhao Qianqian felt her legs go weak after just one glance. "Sister Gu, how do we pick these persimmons?"

Shouldn't persimmon trees grow on the ground?

Why is this persimmon tree growing on a cliff, and quite a distance from the top? Doesn't that mean you have to go down there to pick the persimmons?

This thought made Zhao Qianqian feel her legs getting weaker and weaker.

She walked and stopped for half an hour before finally reaching the top, her legs were already weak.

Now……

She felt she didn't even have the strength to go down the mountain.

Gu An'an looked at the person who had fallen to the ground and lost her previous dignified demeanor, and took out a hemp rope from the small bamboo basket. "Naturally, go down and pick them."

She then found a very sturdy tree, tied the hemp rope to it, and tied the other end of the rope around her waist.

Zhao Qianqian was stunned. Although she coveted the food, she never imagined that it was obtained at the risk of her life.

The delicious persimmons seemed to have something extra about them, which made Zhao Qianqian a little flustered. When she looked up, she quickly said, "Sister Gu, maybe we should just forget about it."

There's no need to risk it for a few persimmons; at worst, she won't eat them.

Seeing the young woman's anxious face, Gu An'an smiled and pinched her slightly chubby cheeks. "It's okay, you can just wait upstairs."

She's not a bad kid after all; once I realized the danger, I didn't want her to go down.

This made Gu An'an feel that her choice couldn't have been wiser.

Zhao Qianqian was still a little worried, but Jiang Mingzhu reassured her, "It's okay, Mother and I will be careful."

These words made Zhao Qianqian realize something. "Are you going down too?"

Good heavens, are you crazy?!

Jiang Mingzhu smiled as she tied the rope and nimbly climbed down, giving Zhao Qianqian no time to react.

Seeing that she was now all alone on the cliff, Zhao Qianqian sat there with her arms crossed.

For the first time, she felt guilty, and she never expected it would be towards this mother and daughter.

Would someone who can come up with 10,000 factors be short of their own little money?

In reality, let alone three hundred taels each, even five hundred or a thousand taels wouldn't be worth it.

If something goes wrong, this is a regret that no amount of money can buy back.

Sister Gu didn't value the money; she valued her as a person.

This thought moved Zhao Qianqian deeply. The usually spoiled young lady of the Zhao family rubbed her eyes, carefully stood up, and moved to the edge of the cliff.

She carefully grasped the hemp rope and peered out, only to see that Sister Gu and Zhu'er were already standing on the tree trunk, picking persimmons.

They were so light they seemed weightless, their movements as graceful as bees gathering nectar from flowers.

Zhao Qianqian's tears fell uncontrollably again, especially when Gu An'an seemed to lose her footing and accidentally slipped on the moss on the tree trunk. She couldn't help but shout, "Be careful!"

Jiang Mingzhu quickly went over to help her up, "Mother, are you alright?"

"It's nothing." Gu An'an was relieved, but her palms were sweaty.

Moss appeared on the branches, and the trunk of the old persimmon tree made a sound.

"Hurry up and go up."

The persimmon tree is too old; it's already rotten from the inside out, and I'm afraid it's about to break.

Thinking of this, Gu An'an felt a chill; she had been careless after all.

Fortunately, Jiang Mingzhu was only a few steps away from the edge of the cliff. She quickly grabbed onto the rocks on the cliff face and climbed up with the basket of persimmons on her back.

Gu An'an has also reached a safe place.

However, this safety was only relative. After grabbing the protruding rock, Gu An'an felt as if her hand had touched something slippery.

ask.

You have to live with one of three things: a centipede, a cockroach, or a snake. Which would you choose?

In the adult world, I choose no one!

Gu An'an chopped off the snake's head with a shovel, grabbed half of its body, and threw it up, saying, "Catch it."

While waiting anxiously upstairs, Zhao Qianqian subconsciously reached out to grab it. When she saw the slippery thing in her hand, she was a little confused. "What is this?"

Why is it only half?

It looks like a hemp rope, but not quite.

Jiang Mingzhu glanced at it and said calmly, "Snake, you're quite bold, aren't you afraid?"

These words made Zhao Qianqian shudder. "What?"

It's a snake!

Having never seen a snake before, the young lady of the Zhao family instinctively threw the thing away.

Did she not realize that she had caught a snake?

This is absolutely terrifying!

Jiang Mingzhu, seeing her expression, became wary and quickly grabbed the snake's tail, throwing the headless but still moving half of the snake into the small bamboo basket.

"Don't lose it! My mother had a hard time catching it."

Zhao Qianqian watched Jiang Mingzhu playing with the snake as if nothing was wrong, and she felt a chill run down her spine. "Why are you keeping it? Can you please not put it on the persimmons?"

She felt that if that were the case, she wouldn't dare eat those persimmons at all.

How could it be related to snakes?

This feels like a dream.

Jiang Mingzhu readily accepted the advice, took the snake out of the bamboo basket that was half full of persimmons, and threw it into the small cloth bag she always carried with her.

She still cared about the girl after all, so she made up an excuse, "This can be used in medicine, we can use it to make a prescription later."

Is it used in medicine?

Zhao Qianqian felt more and more that the mother and daughter had a hard time. When she saw a head sticking out from the other side of the cliff, she mustered up her courage and went over to help Gu An'an.
