Chapter 285: Exchanging Persimmons for Wild Vegetables

Third Brother Yun took the bowl and drank it in one gulp, "Oh, it quenches my thirst so much."

Brother Yun next to him finished drinking the mung bean soup and squinted his eyes happily.

"Second brother, third brother, have some bread. Mother brought you some vegetables and braised beef in soy sauce."

After hearing this, Brother Yun San and Brother Yun Er happily started eating.

"By the way, second brother, after you finish your meal, come down the mountain with Dad. There have been a lot of people coming to our house these past few days, and it's been quite chaotic."

"There's only mom and brother Zirui at home, and we're all worried. If you were to go back, we wouldn't be so worried."

Brother Yun paused for a moment and said, "Okay, then I'll follow Dad down the mountain."

After Brother Yun finished speaking, he felt a little depressed. In fact, he liked working in the mountains. There were fewer people there, so he felt more at ease working there.

However, he also knew that it was best for him to go back. The eldest brother was busy transporting things down the mountain. The third brother was too impulsive.

Yiyi had to stay on the mountain. If Yiyi hadn't followed them up the mountain, their harvest would certainly not have been as great.

Brother Yun sighed quietly. But it was okay. With so many people in the family, someone had to do some of the work.

Third Brother Yun looked up in surprise, "Yiyi, am I going down the mountain with you?"

Yun Yiyi shook her head and said, "Third brother, after you finish your meal, go pick persimmons with Big Brother."

"That's fine, Yiyi. Just now, when you and big brother went down the mountain, my second brother and I had already picked all the persimmons from one tree. Now dad and big brother are picking from the third tree."

Yun Yiyi exclaimed in surprise, "Second brother, third brother, you two work so fast."

After she said that, she raised her thumb.

Second Brother Yun smiled sheepishly, "Yiyi, these are all our own work, and they are all edible. We must take them home as soon as possible to make people feel at ease."

Third Brother Yun beside him also nodded in agreement.

Yun Yiyi actually had the same idea, so she stood up and went to help Brother Yun and Yun the Butcher pack persimmons.

"Dad, how are the persimmons? Are they good?"

Butcher Yun stood under the tree, happily picking persimmons. "Haha, this persimmon tree is really good. It bears so many persimmons."

"I didn't expect you to be so lucky. Not only did you find three trees, you also found a hawthorn tree."

"Dad, have you gone to see the hawthorn tree?"

"I just went to take a look. The hawthorn tree is full of bright red hawthorns. It's so festive. Your mother isn't here yet. If she were, she would definitely be happy to see it."

"Dad, if we don't transport the persimmons we picked this time to Shilin Town to sell, how can we keep them for a long time?"

Butcher Yun thought for a moment and said, "I'll ask your mother when I get back. If I had to say, it would definitely be dried into dried persimmons, which would last the longest."

"However, things have been quite uneasy around here lately. So it's a bit inconvenient to dry the dried persimmons."

"Dad, how about using the persimmon cakes to exchange for something in the village?"

Butcher Yun nodded. "It's possible to trade persimmons for things in the village. However, I doubt anyone would trade them for grain."

"Dad, there's no need to exchange for food. The villagers can exchange wild vegetables for persimmons. Think about it, Dad, we didn't spend any money on these persimmons. We just took the trouble to pick them in the mountains."

"Then we just took the trouble to carry them down the mountain. The villagers didn't run so far. If they had, they could still have picked persimmons."

"Besides, it takes time to dig up wild vegetables, and it takes time to carry them back. But wild vegetables are edible, and they keep for a long time."

"Besides, we are all from the same clan in our village. It doesn't matter if they take advantage of us."

"And most of the persimmons we exchange back are eaten by our children at home."

Butcher Yun nodded repeatedly, "Okay, Yiyi. I'll go talk to your mother. But we still need to find a way to dry some dried persimmons."

"The dried persimmons are now dried. They will be so delicious when we eat them during the Chinese New Year."

Yun Yiyi's eyes lit up. "Dad, I think you and Mom can spread mats on the tops of the mule and donkey carts. Then, you can put the peeled persimmons there to dry."

"The roof of the carriage is usually quite high. Even if someone comes by, if they don't go to see it, they certainly won't think we're drying dried persimmons there."

Butcher Yun clapped his hands happily. "Oh, why didn't I think of this idea? But, Yiyi, it's good that you thought of it."

"You inherited your cleverness from your father."

Butcher Yun was still smug after he finished speaking.

Beside them, Yun Yiyi and Big Brother Yun looked at Yun the Butcher speechlessly.

Originally, Yun Yiyi was wondering, Zhang and Yun the Butcher were usually so serious, so who did Third Brother Yun take his outgoing nature from?

Well, now Yun Yiyi can be sure that Third Brother Yun has taken after Butcher Yun. She can only blame Butcher Yun for hiding his true identity too well.

With Yun Yiyi's help, Brother Yun and Yun the Butcher quickly filled two baskets of persimmons.

As usual, to prevent the persimmons from falling out of the basket, Brother Yun used a sickle to cut a large amount of grass.

Butcher Yun and Brother Yun stuffed the basket with grass and finally secured it with sweet potato vines.

"Dad, I've finished my meal. Shall we go down the mountain now?"

"Come on, second brother. Why don't you carry a basket of persimmons down the mountain? A persimmon basket is a little lighter than a sweet potato basket."

"Then listen to Dad. I'll carry a basket of persimmons down the mountain."

So, Yun the Butcher carried a basket of sweet potatoes and Yun the Second Brother carried a basket of persimmons, and the two of them started walking down the mountain.

Yun Yiyi hurriedly instructed, "Dad, you and second brother don't change the road, just take the road I brought you here."

"Got it, Yiyi. Dad has memorized that road."

Yun Yiyi watched Yun the Butcher and Second Brother Yun walk away, then she turned and walked towards Big Brother Yun.

"Brother, how about I go around the front and see if there are any other good things in the mountains?"

"Okay, Yiyi, go ahead. But don't go too far. Come back and rest for a while when you get tired."

"Yes, Yiyi, don't run too far."

"I understand, big brother, third brother."

After Yun Yiyi finished speaking, she picked up her iron stick and began her adventure.

She looked at the weeds around her, chose a direction, and started walking forward.

Of course, as usual, she beat the grass with an iron stick and pressed it to the sides with the iron stick.

When she walked over, a path appeared.

Yun Yiyi chose this direction. She stood on a rock and looked around. After walking for a while, she arrived at a large forest.

She wanted to check out the area around the woods to see if there were any surprises there.

Anyway, it's like this in the mountains. No one knows where the good stuff is. You can only run more. The more you run, the more good stuff you will naturally encounter.

Yun Yiyi encouraged herself and continued moving forward.
