Although Lu Minghui was small and thin, he was very agile, like a nimble little monkey. He quickly climbed onto the coconut tree, grabbed the branches of the coconut tree with his little arms, and tried to pry them apart with his hands.
Shen Li's heart was in her throat, fearing that something might happen to Lu Minghui. She stood a little closer to Lu Minghui with her arms open in an embracing posture, fearing that Lu Minghui would fall from the tree. This way she could still hug him in time.
With Lu Minghui's efforts, he soon picked a coconut from the tree. He shouted to Shen Li on the bed, "Catch it!"
Shen Li nodded in confusion, and then watched Lu Minghui throw the coconut down from the tree.
Shen Li stretched out her hand and caught it firmly.
Afterwards, Lu Minghui went to pick the second coconut.
He cooperated very well with Shen Li, and Shen Li also caught the second one.
"Minghui, it's done." Shen Li said, "These two coconuts are heavy enough. This is enough for us to eat."
"Come down!" Shen Li shouted.
Only then did Lu Minghui slowly climb down from the tree.
After Lu Minghui landed safely, Shen Li finally breathed a sigh of relief, "You scared me to death, don't do such dangerous things again in the future!"
Lu Minghui looked sternly, his dark eyes staring at her quietly, "I didn't do this just for you."
"You feed us beef jerky and I'll pick coconuts for you," he added.
Shen Li smiled. This boy is so arrogant.
He had clearly let down his guard against her a little and was friendly towards her.
"The beef jerky was prepared by your grandpa and grandma Lu." Shen Li said.
Lu Minghui frowned, "Then consider it as... compensation for not speaking up for you when Li Cuicui slandered you last time."
"Do you want to compensate me?" Shen Li looked at him with a smile.
Lu Minghui's big dark eyes looked at Shen Li smiling at him so coquettishly, and his little face suddenly turned red and felt hot.
He suddenly understood why Mr. Lu had looked down on all other women before and fell in love with her.
She is really beautiful and gentle.
I hope this tenderness is real and not a fake illusion.
"Yeah." Lu Minghui said in a hard voice.
"I smell a mango." Shen Li smiled and said, "If you really want to compensate me, then you can help me pick mangoes and I will make Yangzhi Ganlu for you, okay?"
Boys are different from girls. They cannot be brought up to be spoiled. They need to be allowed to do some work appropriately to cultivate their sense of responsibility.
Lu Minghui originally thought that she would make some difficult requests or requests that would embarrass her, but her request turned out to be to help her pick mangoes?
"Is it that simple?"
"Yeah. Of course."
Looking at Shen Li's clear and frank almond eyes, Lu Minghui suddenly felt that he had misunderstood her and was too mean. His face was a little hot and the tips of his ears were also red. "Okay, I promise you."
Shen Li took the two children and walked towards a nearby place.
Not far away is a shorter hill with a strong mango scent.
Shen Li held the hands of the two children and climbed up the stairs little by little.
"You two should be careful." Shen Li said.
There are many grass and tree branches on the ground, and if you are not careful, you will scratch your skin.
Moreover, there are many insects and snakes on the trees. If you are accidentally bitten by a poisonous snake, it will be troublesome.
I have to take care of these two children, so my progress is very slow.
After climbing for about forty minutes, I finally climbed up.
There is a large area of short mango trees growing on the hill. The branches of the trees are not thick, and the leaves on the trees are all dark green. The leaves are flat, long and thick. Hanging from the branches are big, full mangoes that are bigger than the palm. Most of these mangoes have green skin, and some are half green and half light pink. The more mature and better mangoes will become half pink and one side yellow, which looks very tempting.
This is the "apple mango", which is large in size, fleshy, sweet, and has a small core.
The whole head is filled with an alluring mango scent.
There are so many heavy mangoes on this tree. The yield of any one tree must be over a hundred kilograms!
Shen Li swallowed subconsciously.
"There are so many mangoes, why doesn't anyone come to pick them?" Shen Li couldn't help but ask.
"These mangoes are very common on the island," Luk said. "Everyone eats them every day, almost every day. I guess everyone is tired of them."
After all, this kind of mango is very sweet.
Shen Li thought about it and agreed. For her family, it would be very happy to see so many big mangoes for free. But for the locals who were born and raised on the island, it was commonplace and nothing special.
"There are a lot of fruit trees here. There's also something very smelly with thorns." Duoduo said in a baby voice. She pinched her nose and made a panicked expression.
"Is it durian?" Shen Li's eyes lit up, "Where is it?"
"Over there." Duoduo's voice was soft and she pointed to a place not far away.
Shen Li's mind moved.
Durian is a good thing!
Durian is super delicious! Even in 냭, buying a large durian costs hundreds of dollars! And after opening it, you don’t know if the flesh inside is here to repay you!
If there are durian trees on this island, wouldn't she be able to achieve durian freedom? !
She came to the right island!
"Come on, let's start picking mangoes!" Shen Li was excited, but she found that she came here empty-handed, with two big coconuts in her hands, and she couldn't pick many!
It seems I can only pick a little this time.
Seeing this, Lu Minghui took off his vest, revealing his honey-colored chest.
"Hold it with this." Lu Minghui said.
"Minghui, how come you are so smart!" Shen Li smiled with curved lips. She pinched Lu Minghui's little face and said, "Children, let's get started!"
Lu Minghui stood there in a daze.
Just now... was he pinched on the face by a beautiful woman?
"Brother, let's go." Duoduo pulled Lu Minghui's hand and walked forward excitedly.
Lu Minghui's face gradually turned red. He came to his senses and followed, walking forward quickly.
Shen Li picked some ripe red mangoes and put them in Lu Minghui's pocket.
Lu Minghui also stood on tiptoe to pick the red ones. Although he was small, he was quite strong. He picked them seriously and soon filled his small clothes with big mangoes.
During this time, Shen Li picked a few ripe mangoes while the two children were not paying attention and stored them in her own space.
After eating the mango flesh, you can extract mango seeds from the core. If you plant them in your own space, you may be able to grow a large mango tree!
Shen Li is full of anticipation for every day to come.
