Third Brother Yun came over and put his arm around Yun Yiyi, "Yiyi, it's okay. Third Brother was too much. Third Brother apologizes to you."
Yun Yiyi immediately smiled happily, "Haha, Third Brother, I'm not angry."
"Okay, big brother, third brother, let's go pick peaches now. If someone else picks them, I'll be heartbroken."
After hearing this, Big Brother Yun and Third Brother Yun were also stunned.
"Okay, let's go now. Yiyi, you lead the way."
"Yes, Yiyi, let's walk faster. We must not let others get there first."
Yun Yiyi nodded in agreement, "Okay, then you two should walk faster."
After Yun Yiyi finished speaking, she led the way with a stick in hand.
Brother Yun the eldest and Brother Yun the third followed closely behind, carrying baskets on their backs.
After walking for more than half an hour, Brother Yun couldn't help but ask, "Yiyi, how long will it take us to get there?"
Yun Yiyi said loudly, "Third brother, we are only halfway there now."
When Brother Yun heard this, an expression of "as expected" appeared on his face.
It seems that this time Yi Yi discovered the peach tree after wandering around the mountain.
Third Brother Yun sighed twice, "Yiyi, it's still such a long way to go. It turns out that peaches are not so easy to eat."
Brother Yun continued, "If the peach tree was growing at the foot of the mountain, it probably wouldn't have waited until we arrived to pick the peaches. It would have been picked by the passing refugees long ago."
"Brother, what you said makes sense. I was just overthinking it."
"Third brother, think about the delicious peaches. I estimate that if we pick all the peaches from that tree, we'll have two baskets. That should be enough for us to eat for a long time."
"Haha, thinking about it this way, even if I climb the mountain for another hour, I won't feel tired anymore."
The three siblings of the Yun family chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at the peach tree.
"Big brother, third brother, this is it. Look at the peach tree. Is it big? Are there many peaches on it?"
Third Brother Yun was surprised. "Yiyi, I'm really impressed by your luck. You even found a peach tree like this."
Brother Yun was also confused. The peach tree in front of him was tall and big, with a large crown. It was obviously an old peach tree.
There are many peaches hidden between the branches and leaves of the peach tree. The peaches are quite big and emit a sweet smell.
"Big Brother, Third Brother, you two pick the peaches on the tree. I'll pick the peaches at the bottom. I've tried before, and I definitely can't pick the peaches at the top."
Yun Yiyi finished speaking with a frustrated look on her face.
After hearing this, Big Brother Yun immediately comforted Yun Yiyi, "Yiyi, Big Brother and Third Brother are here. Don't worry, we will pick all the peaches from the tree without leaving a single one."
"Yes, don't keep any of them, pick them all and take them home. This kind of peach ripens late. And the flesh is hard, so it's perfectly fine to eat them during the New Year."
Yun Yiyi clapped her hands happily, "Okay, big brother, third brother, the peaches on the tree are counting on you two."
"Okay, Yiyi, I'll go up the tree and pick peaches now."
"Yes, I want to pick peaches from the tree too."
Soon, Big Brother Yun and Third Brother Yun climbed up the peach tree respectively.
Although the peach tree is tall, it is easy to climb. Brother Yun Da and Brother Yun San are also good tree climbers.
"Yiyi, pour all the peppercorns in this basket into the other basket. Then give me the empty basket."
"Alright, big brother. Right away."
Yun Yiyi poured all the peppercorns from one basket into another basket.
Then she handed the empty basket to Brother Yun on the peach tree.
Brother Yun took the basket and placed it on the trunk of the peach tree. It was very safe and there was no need to worry about the basket falling under the tree.
Brother Yun Da Ge and Brother Yun San Ge picked peaches from the peach tree and put them into the basket on the tree.
Yun Yiyi stood under the tree, and she specifically picked peaches from the branches that were closer to the ground.
"Oh, this peach is so big."
"Ah. This peach is so red. It looks delicious."
"I'm so happy. It's a pity that this peach has too much hair on it, otherwise I could eat it right now."
"When I get home later, I want to eat three peaches. No, I want to eat five peaches."
Yun Yiyi listened to Third Brother Yun's chatter and felt like laughing more and more. Third Brother Yun was so funny, and his words were getting funnier and funnier.
"Third brother, shut up and pick peaches. If you keep nagging, I'll get down."
When the eldest brother Yun's scolding sounded, the third brother Yun immediately muted it.
Yun Yiyi shook her head. "Big brother is the one who has the solution." "Third brother is too noisy."
And it's not safe to be on a tree. It would be troublesome if you fall from the tree.
"Yiyi, pour out the peaches from the basket. It's easier to carry if it's half full. If it's full, you won't be able to move it."
"Here I come, big brother."
Brother Yun handed half a basket of peaches to Yun Yiyi. Yun Yiyi took it carefully and poured the peaches in the basket into another basket.
That basket was already half full of Sichuan peppercorns. Yun Yiyi had also picked some peaches, and once the peaches picked by Big Brother Yun and Third Brother Yun were poured into it, the basket was full.
"Brother, the basket under the tree is full, what should we do?"
"It's okay, Yiyi, let's pick some peaches first. If that doesn't work, we can just run down the mountain a couple of times."
"That's all I can do, brother. I forgot there were any peppercorns in the basket."
"Haha, don't talk about you, Yiyi. I didn't expect there were so many peaches on the peach tree."
"Okay, Yiyi, please hand me the basket."
Yun Yiyi handed the empty basket to Brother Yun. Brother Yun put the basket away and continued picking peaches.
Yun Yiyi had no choice but to put the peaches she picked on the weeds on the side.
After nearly an hour, Yun Yiyi had picked all the peaches she could.
She had no way to pick peaches from trees that were higher up, so she sat on a rock under the tree and watched Big Brother Yun and Third Brother Yun pick peaches.
In the middle, Yun Yiyi also helped pour out two and a half baskets of peaches.
"Big Brother, Third Brother, are there still many peaches on the tree? How long will it take to pick them all?"
"I see the sun is really bright now. I guess Mom has already made dumplings for lunch."
Brother Yun's voice came from the tree, "Yiyi, I don't have many peaches here. They will be picked in ten minutes or so."
"Yiyi, I'm almost out of peaches here. Yiyi, are you hungry?"
"Yes, Third Brother, I've been climbing the mountain for so long that I've already digested the dumplings I had this morning."
"Then wait a little longer, and we'll go home together."
"Got it, Third Brother. Don't just talk to me, be careful about your own safety too."
"Don't worry, Yiyi. I'm watching you. You won't fall from the tree."
"Then I won't say anything. Big Brother, Third Brother, just pick peaches with peace of mind."
