Chapter 73 Climbing a Tree
Wen Zhenyi did not let go of his hand right after he pulled Chen Hanxing over. He pulled out the dagger stuck in the tree trunk and looked around. Not far away, there were several large trees full of red fruits, which looked like cherries from a distance.
She pulled Shen Hanxing over there, wanting to confirm if it was Cherry.
Shen Hanxing looked at the hand she was holding, a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his lips, and his hand tightened slightly.
Wen Zhenyi completely forgot that he was holding Shen Hanxing's hand and just walked towards the direction of the trees.
Lei Jiayang and his friends were frantically helping their sister to remove the branches from her clothes and hair. Seeing their appearance, he felt that a scolding would be the least of his worries when he got home.
Lei Yingying's face was red from crying: "Brother, it's all your fault."
Lei Jiayang felt a headache: "Why don't you go back?"
"How can we go back now that it's like this?" Lei Yingying cried even harder.
Wen Zhenyi had already walked under several big trees. Looking up, he saw that they were indeed cherries.
She suddenly remembered the few followers behind her: "Don't you want to eat delicious food? Come and help me, I will make delicious food for you later."
Lei Yingying and the others, whose noses were red from crying, stopped crying instantly and looked at her with their big watery eyes: "Really?"
"Well, if you work harder, you can take some back with you."
Not to mention Lei Yingying, even Lei Jiayang and the others were thinking that if they brought some back, they would not be punished when they returned home. Without saying a word, they walked towards where she was.
Wen Zhenyi looked at the three people who were crying like cats. Now their little faces were dirty but they were still smiling. He felt a little sorry for them.
"See these trees?"
Several people looked up and said, "Hey! Isn't this a cherry?"
"That's right. Your task now is to pick cherries."
The three young ladies all looked unhappy. How could they pick the fruit? The tree was not low!
Meng Caidie looked at her second brother and said, "Second brother, go pick them, or I'll go home and tell Dad and Mom that you made me like this."
The corners of Meng Yongchun's mouth twitched, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You are really my good sister."
The other two also looked at their brother at the same time, their intentions were obvious.
Lei Jiayang, Song Yi and others wanted to die. What kind of sister was this?
Cheng Lesheng happily watched the show from the side, fanning himself with the fan at his waist. He used to envy them for having brothers and sisters, but now he realizes that being an only child is so lucky.
Wen Zhenyi turned to look at him: "You too."
"Me?" Cheng Lesheng pointed at his nose.
"If you don't want to eat, you don't have to move."
Cheng Lesheng's mouth twitched, and he put the fan on his waist: "I'll go if I want to. It's just climbing a tree." After saying that, he walked towards a cherry tree.
The others had no choice but to walk under the cherry tree, tuck their shirts into their belts and start climbing the tree.
Wen Zhenyi watched the four people crawling for a long time and still struggling at a distance of one meter. His face turned red and he shook his head helplessly: "What's the use of you?" After saying that, he was about to walk over, but was pulled back by a force.
She turned her head and realized that she was still holding Shen Hanxing's hand. She blinked and looked up at him: "Brother Shen, please help me catch the basket down there later."
Shen Hanxing smiled and let go of her hand: “Okay.”
Wen Zhenyi felt a headache when he saw the four people still struggling under the tree and the three people fighting nearby: "I will be short of materials later, bring them to me." After saying that, he pulled the four people down from the tree.
Cheng Lesheng didn't care whether it was clean or not, he sat down on the ground and gasped: "You, you should have told me earlier, I, I could have gotten it for you."
"That's right, ouch, I'm so tired." Meng Yongchun just lay down on the ground with his arms spread out.
Lei Jiayang and Song Yi also sat on the ground in an ungraceful manner, wanting to see how she picked cherries.
Wen Zhenyi, carrying a backpack, ran towards a cherry tree, jumped up and used the force of his foot to step on the trunk, then grabbed a branch and used his arms to support his body and climbed up the tree.
The movements were done in one go without any pause, leaving the people under the tree with their mouths wide open.
Cheng Lesheng turned to look at the smiling Shen Hanxing: "Miss Wen is a monkey!"
"Ouch!" As soon as he finished speaking, a cherry hit him on the forehead accurately.
Cheng Lesheng covered his forehead and saw the bright red cherry juice on it: "He really showed no mercy."
Song Huanhuan was stunned: "This is so cool." Then she looked at her brother: "It's useless."
Song Yi's mouth twitched: "You damn girl."
Song Huanhuan made a face at him.
Lei Yingying only saw the figure moving on the tree, and also saw her move easily from one tree to another. Now she believed what Cheng Lesheng said, that this person must be a monkey.
After Wen Zhenyi filled his backpack, he called out to the tree, "Brother Shen, give me your backpack."
Chen Hanxing walked under the tree, took the cherries she handed over, and handed her his backpack.
Cheng Lesheng looked at the full basket of red cherries and thought that this little girl from the Wen family was really amazing.
Wen Zhenyi filled both backpacks and jumped down from the tree easily.
Shen Hanxing was afraid that she would fall, so she reached out to help her, but found that it was not necessary at all.
Wen Zhenyi handed two backpacks to Cheng Lesheng and Lei Jiayang: "Carry them carefully. If they spill today, you won't have anything to eat."
The two of them originally thought it would be easy, but when they carried it on their backs they realized how heavy it was.
Wen Zhenyi ignored them and walked while looking around for any usable ingredients. She actually discovered the Nanzhu leaves, which are a good ingredient for making black rice.
The others looked puzzled when they saw her start to pull up the leaves.
Chen Hanxing asked curiously, "Sister Wen, what are you doing picking these leaves?"
"This is called Nanzhu Leaf, and it's the ingredient for making black rice."
When Song Yi and the others heard about food, they became more energetic and reached out to help pluck the leaves. They didn't care whether they were old or young, and folded the leaves in a row: "Let's help too."
Wen Zhenyi looked at the branches in their hands and said, "That's enough. No need to pick so many."
"We're not thinking of picking more, it will be convenient for you later."
Wen Zhenyi knew what they were thinking, so he thought that if he cooked more, they would have more to eat. "Let's go. We still have a lot of things to do when we get back."
Several people followed her down the mountain safely, but the young men and women who had been there before going up the mountain were no different from beggars and crazy women after going down the mountain.
When the servants and maids saw their master, they were a little hesitant to recognize him.
Lei Jiayang and Cheng Lesheng handed the backpack to the servant. Their shoulders were burning with pain and felt like they were broken.
