Chapter 355 A Great Harvest
"It looks like there will be a bumper crop of wild grapes in the mountains this year!"
Otherwise, how could one find one so easily?
Everyone nodded in agreement.
The noise of their arrival startled the elves that were pecking at the grapes, and a group of birds flew away with fluttering and chirping.
The trees here are slightly taller, and some of the trees are relatively brittle, so people have to be careful when stepping on them, otherwise the branches may break easily.
Shao Xiaoqi and the others were well aware of this common sense, and as they talked, they all climbed up different trees.
There were only two people left under the tree: Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan.
The two looked at each other and laughed.
Qiao Xuan laughed and said, "We two are freeloaders!"
Shao Yunduan smiled and said, "Being able to eat for free is also a skill!"
Qiao Xuan laughed out loud, her husband has also become a bad person.
However, the two were not idle either - mainly because Qiao Xuan possessed supernatural vision, so it was difficult for her to be idle even if she wanted to.
In the eyes of others, the entire forest looks ordinary at first glance, but in Qiao Xuan's eyes, it's full of treasures.
She could see pheasants, hares, mountain otters, muntjacs, and all kinds of wild birds, but she couldn't do anything about it. But she couldn't help picking all kinds of mushrooms in the forest.
There were many kinds of mushrooms, such as straw mushrooms, pine mushrooms, pleurotus eryngii, big-mouth mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, and purple mushrooms. Although the number of each kind was not large, the two of them found quite a few.
This is still the result of not walking far away on your own.
After half an hour, everyone who had climbed up the tree came down.
The bamboo baskets around their waists were heavy, and everyone carefully poured the wild grapes into two large backpacks.
It weighs about 40 kilograms.
For wild-growing mountain grapes, this is considered a good yield.
Seeing Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan picking a lot of wild mushrooms, everyone was excited: We will have delicious food in the evening again!
Only they can understand the deliciousness of wild mushrooms.
Shao Sanlang patted Xiao Qi on the shoulder and said, "Come on, Xiao Qi, no matter what, you have to hunt two pheasants and stir-fry mushrooms for dinner!"
Everyone laughed.
The group continued to move forward, and in less than half an hour, they found another wild grape field.
There aren't as many here as before, but there are quite a few scattered around.
A little bit adds up to a lot, and after picking all the fruits, the two backpacks are almost full.
Shao Sanlang and Yang Xiaoni carried the wild grapes home first.
Otherwise, it would be very tiring to carry so many things all over the mountain.
Before leaving, Shao Sanlang reminded Shao Xiaoqi again: "Xiaoqi, don't forget, pheasant, pheasant! If you don't have pheasant, rabbit will do!"
Qiao Xuan laughed out loud.
Shao Xiaoqi looked at him helplessly: "Don't worry, Third Brother, it's certain!"
The two main laborers left, and Qiao Xuan and the others were carrying bags woven with hemp ropes, so they stopped looking for wild grapes and only looked for mushrooms and hunted.
The wild grapes harvested today weigh about 70 to 80 kilograms. I will go back early to deal with them and look for more tomorrow.
Qiao Xuan can now concentrate on looking for ficus carica fruit.
Unfortunately, they didn't find anything that day. After finding a lot of mushrooms, Shao Xiaoqi also hunted three pheasants, five or six grouse and other small birds, and then they returned home.
As a result, on the way back, he hunted another mountain otter.
The weather is not so hot now, especially at night, the temperature in the countryside drops sharply at night. Even if these prey are not processed today, they will still be fresh tomorrow.
Of course, it can’t be left for too long.
Back home, it's busy again.
Wild grapes cannot be left overnight before processing, so they are first washed, picked one by one, placed in a basket, drained, and packed in jars.
