Brother Yun and the others looked at Yun Yiyi's raised little feet and started laughing again.

When Yun Yiyi heard the laughter, she deliberately turned her head in another direction and faced away from them.

"There are so many wild jujubes. If we pick them all, they must weigh about seven or eight kilograms, right, big brother?"

"Second brother, more than that, I think it will be a little more."

"Brother, let's do what Yiyi wants. If she wants to eat jujube cakes, let mother make some for her."

"You don't need too many jujubes, and I remember we have peanuts and sugar for making jujube cakes at home."

Brother Yun turned around and glanced at Yun Yiyi. "Second brother, I was just teasing Yiyi on purpose. When we get back, I'll tell her to make some jujube cakes for Yiyi."

Second Brother Yun also lowered his voice, "Brother, why do you have to tease her? If you make her angry, there will be no one to comfort her."

"Okay, I'll listen to you and stop teasing her. Let's pick them quickly. If we keep going like this, I don't think we'll be able to finish picking them before dark."

"Brother, it's okay. If we can't pick all the jujubes, just break the jujube tree and take the branches back. We can pick them slowly in the evening."

Brother Yun nodded and said, "This is also a good idea."

"Zi Rui, did you prick your hand again? I don't need your help, just go and play."

Xie Zirui pulled back his pricked hand and said embarrassedly, "Brother, second brother, I'm going to rest now."

Second Brother Yun waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, I really don't need your help."

After listening to what Second Brother Yun said, Xie Zirui left the jujube tree and came to Yun Yiyi.

"Yiyi, here, these are the wild jujubes I picked."

Yun Yiyi happily took the jujubes and said, "Brother Zirui, thank you."

"I saw you didn't pick much just now, so I guess you should have finished eating."

"Brother Zirui, you are awesome." Yun Yiyi happily gave a thumbs up.

Xie Zirui lowered his head and pulled out the small thorns on his hand. "Wild jujubes are delicious, but they have too many thorns. I wonder if the jujube trees also have thorns?"

When Yun Yiyi heard this, she said, "Brother Zirui, let me tell you, the jujube trees have many thorns, just like the wild jujube trees."

"When we were in the village, there was a family that planted a red date tree in their yard. Every autumn, the tree was full of dates."

"The kids in our village start watching the jujubes from the moment they are green, and wait until they turn red."

"Yiyi, are red date trees bigger than wild date trees?"

"Brother Zirui, the red date tree is a big tree. Compared to this mountain date tree, it is a small tree. The difference is still very big."

"The happiest time for us kids is when the old ladies who planted the jujube trees pick the jujubes."

"The old ladies would spread two mats under the jujube tree and then hit the tree with a long bamboo pole. The jujubes would fall onto the mats."

"After all the dates were harvested, the grandmother would give each of us children a handful of red dates. The dates weren't fully ripe yet, just a little red, and when you bite into them, they're crisp and sweet."

"The taste is completely different from that of dried red dates." Yun Yiyi said with a look of nostalgia.

"Yiyi, when we settle down, we can plant two red date trees in the yard."

"Brother Zirui, jujube trees are easy to grow, but saplings are hard to find."

"It's okay. You can ask around when the time comes. You'll always find it."

Yun Yiyi nodded. "That's true, but it will take a little more effort."

"Yiyi, Zirui, I'll give each of you a peach." The voice of Third Brother Yun suddenly rang out.

Yun Yiyi and Xie Zirui took the peaches respectively.

"Third brother, you're home!" Yun Yiyi took a bite of peach and said vaguely.

"Yes, I just sent back all the wild vegetables we picked. Our mother can't cook dinner." Brother Three Yun said as he handed the two remaining peaches in his hand to Brother Eldest Yun and the others.

"Yes, there will be delicious chive dumplings in the evening. Today's meal is really good." Yun Yiyi happily took a big bite of the peach.

"Well, when I came, Mom was kneading the dough. When we get back, we can eat it ready."

Yun Yiyi lay back down on the big rock and said, "Today is another happy day."

Xie Zirui followed Yun Yiyi's example and lay down on another large rock. At this moment, the years were truly peaceful.

Third Brother Yun finished his peach in a few bites. Then he deftly began picking wild jujubes. Although the jujubes had many small thorns, this was no problem for a farm boy who often went up the mountain and down the river.

Brother Yun and his team picked the fruits very quickly. After more than 20 minutes, they had picked all the jujubes from the jujube tree.

Brother Yun and his friends took their baskets and prepared to continue picking jujubes from the two jujube trees.

When they climbed up, they saw the tangled jujube trees and were instantly delighted. The two trees were very tall and bore many jujubes.

Brother Yun started picking them up, "Okay, second brother, third brother, stop standing there and pick them quickly."

"Here I come, big brother."

"Hehe, I'm just a little surprised, big brother. There are so many wild dates, enough for us to eat for a while."

Brother Yun pinched the sour dates in his hand and said, "Yes, there are indeed quite a few. However, these wild dates need to be dried in the sun for a while before they can be stored. They are still a little damp now."

"Based on our mother's way of doing things, she will definitely give some away, and there probably won't be much left." Third Brother Yun looked at Big Brother Yun with an understanding look on his face.

"Third brother, if it were in the past, it would indeed be like this. However, you forgot that Yiyi also picked wild grapes today. If our mother had given wild grapes, she would definitely not have given us these wild dates."

Third Brother Yun slapped his thigh excitedly, "Second Brother, I forgot about the wild grapes."

"If that's the case, the jujubes we picked today will be enough for us to eat for a while."

Brother Yun put all the jujubes in his hand into the basket and said, "Yes, that's it."

After hearing this, the three Yun brothers were all happy. Although they still couldn't eat enough while fleeing the famine, they wouldn't be too hungry either.

Especially recently, Zhang has been cooking a lot and the food is good, so everyone eats until they are 90% full.

However, there were very few snacks available. In previous years, when Zhang was at home, she would fry some peanuts and beans for everyone to snack on.

There was a food shortage, so there were no snacks to eat. The peaches that Butcher Yun bought last time made the children at home happy for a long time.

This time, Yun Yiyi found wild grapes and jujubes in the mountains. For a long time, the children had no shortage of snacks. Especially since these snacks didn't cost money.

Children's happiness is simple. Having a delicious meal, having delicious snacks, or having a new set of clothes can make them happy for a long time.

The more they thought about it, the happier they became, and Brother Yun and the others moved faster and faster.
