Yun Yiyi listened to the three Yun brothers' discussion for a while before interrupting them. "Big brother, second brother, third brother, I don't want to pick the persimmons for now."
"Let's go dig sweet potatoes first. After we're done, we'll come back and pick persimmons and hawthorns."
After hearing Yun Yiyi's words, the three Yun brothers fell silent for a moment.
Second Brother Yun spoke first, "Yiyi, are you worried that you won't be able to dig up all the sweet potatoes today?"
Yun Yiyi immediately retorted, "Second brother, I'm not worried that we won't be able to dig up all the wild sweet potatoes today. I'm worried that even if we dig up all the sweet potatoes today, we won't be able to transport them up the mountain."
"The place where I found the wild sweet potatoes is really too far from the woods where our family is temporarily staying. And the sweet potatoes have to be carried down the mountain by my brothers on foot."
"That would be a waste of time. So, I think we should go dig the sweet potatoes first. After we're done, we can figure out how to transport them down the mountain."
"Yiyi, what you're worried about is indeed a big problem. The place we came to today is indeed a bit too far."
"Brother, brother, I agree with Yiyi. Let's go dig sweet potatoes first. There's no need to rush to pick persimmons and hawthorns."
"Okay, then I'll listen to you. Let's go dig sweet potatoes first. But, let's put the persimmons in the basket here. Otherwise, we'll have to carry them back again after we carry them there."
"Yes, big brother. Let's put the persimmons we picked under the persimmon tree."
Big Brother Yun and Second Brother Yun quickly poured the persimmons in the basket onto the weeds under the persimmon tree.
Brother Yun San was worried, so he specially cut a large bag of weeds to cover it.
Brother Yun was worried, so he covered the ground with weeds again.
Yun Yiyi waited until everyone had covered the persimmons, then began to urge everyone to set off.
"Brother, it's getting late, let's get going quickly."
"I understand, Yiyi, please stop pushing me."
Brother Yun and the others carried the baskets on their backs and started walking forward with Yiyi.
"Yiyi, why don't we wait until we finish digging the sweet potatoes, and then my second brother and I will go back to dig the sweet potatoes, and then come back later. Otherwise, Dad and Mom will be worried about us at home.
After listening to what Big Brother Yun said, Yun Yiyi thought it was okay. Otherwise, Yun the Butcher and Zhang would definitely be worried to death if they saw that they hadn't returned by noon.
However, the distance is too far, and transporting things down the mountain would be a waste of time. It seems that we need to think of a better solution.
"Brother, the method you mentioned is fine. However, I think we need to think of another way. It really takes too long to get to the next mountain."
"Brother, why don't we send two people back first. Then let our father come to pick us up." Second Brother Yun thought for a while before saying.
"Brother, your idea is also feasible. However, we also need to figure out where to send Dad to meet us."
"Yiyi, this is a simple question. Just let our dad drive to the foot of the mountain to pick us up."
Brother Yun hesitated for a moment, "Then our father will have to drive the car on the official road. Will it be dangerous?"
"Brother, we are quite far from Qingfeng Village. There shouldn't be much danger."
"However, the best solution is to not let our father drive the car to the foot of the mountain to pick us up. Don't forget, if our father comes here, he will probably have to pass by many refugee groups."
"There are quite a few refugee groups parked along the official road. There's no guarantee they won't have any ideas."
"So, it's safest for us to carry the things back through the mountains, isn't that what you mean, Yiyi?"
Yun Yiyi nodded. "Third brother, that's exactly what I mean. It's safest for us to quietly transport the sweet potatoes, persimmons, and hawthorns back."
"Then we'll probably be busy all day. It'll take most of the day just to transport the things down the mountain." Brother Yun sighed.
Second Brother Yun also agreed and said, "Brother, just go slow. Safety is the most important thing."
Yun Yiyi thought for a moment and said, "Big brother, second brother, third brother, after we finish digging the wild sweet potatoes, I will take big brother back. Second brother and third brother can continue picking persimmons and hawthorns in the mountains."
Seeing Third Brother Yun's disapproving look, he said, "Third Brother, you really need me to lead the way up and down the mountain. I can hear other people's voices from a distance, but you can't."
Brother Yun San thought about it and felt a little discouraged. It was true that Yun Yiyi could see the farthest, hear the farthest, and had the highest fighting power.
"Third brother, don't worry. When my eldest brother and I return, we'll bring dad back with us to help transport the sweet potatoes. With several of us transporting things, it will definitely be faster."
"When the time comes, we will also bring back lunch and we can eat together."
Second Brother Yun said hurriedly, "Yiyi, you and Big Brother should eat at home first. There's no need to come back specially to eat with us. It will be too late then."
"Okay, second brother. Let's talk about it later."
"Yiyi, how long will it take us to get to the sweet potato field? We've been walking for almost half an hour, why aren't we there yet?"
Yun Yiyi listened to Third Brother Yun's complaints and laughed a few times, "Third Brother, don't worry, we're only halfway there."
"To be honest, when I came here looking for something to eat before, I was much more anxious than you are now."
"At that time, I kept complaining about how I had walked so far and still couldn't find anything to eat. I was so annoyed."
"Yiyi, that's why I say you're so patient right now. If I were to come out by myself, I'd get tired of looking for it after a while."
"Third brother, if Yiyi was like you, we would have to harvest much less edible food."
"Yes, eldest brother is right. The third brother's patience is indeed a bit poor."
After hearing what Brother Yun said, Brother Yun San felt guilty and didn't dare to speak.
Yun Yiyi walked in front and shouted, "Big brother, second brother, third brother, come on, we'll be there soon."
“However, when I came here, I saw that the vines of those wild sweet potatoes were very thick and it must be difficult to cut them.
"Yiyi, don't worry. You just watch from the side while the three of us go cut the sweet potato vines."
"Yes, we are all strong. A small sweet potato vine will not be a problem for us."
"Well, I'll have to rest for a while when we get there. But when you start digging for sweet potatoes, I'll help pick them up."
"Okay, when the time comes, let's work hard and try to finish digging the sweet potatoes as soon as possible."
The Yun family brothers and sisters chatted as they walked, and after walking for another half an hour, they finally arrived at the wild sweet potato field.
Brother Yun put down the basket and ran to the sweet potato patch. "Wow, this sweet potato patch is really big."
Second Brother Yun took a sickle and started cutting the sweet potato vines.
Brother Yun San also ran to the sweet potato field and walked around it in a big circle.
Yun Yiyi chose to sit under a tree next to the sweet potato field to rest. She had run back and forth several times and was really exhausted.
