She looked down and saw that her second and third brothers Yun were also busy picking wild celery.
So she turned around, bent down, and continued to join the team cutting wild celery.
More than half an hour passed, and Yun Yiyi felt that her waist no longer felt like her own.
She straightened up, pounded her back with her hands, and sat down on a rock to rest.
Suddenly, she saw a hole in the pile of earth beside the stream.
She rummaged around curiously and soon pulled out a mountain crab.
It's not very big, but its two big pincers swing very quickly and you can get pinched if you're not careful.
Don't underestimate these crabs, they can be very painful when they pinch you. However, this doesn't bother Yun Yiyi.
She held the crab in one hand and with the other hand pulled some tough grass, tied up the crab and put it aside.
At this moment, she didn't feel tired anymore.
She began to lift the stone slabs in the mountain stream. If she was lucky, she could find crabs under the stones.
The next step is to look for crab holes, but not all crab holes contain crabs.
Sometimes, the crab may have wandered out to play and is not in the hole.
In addition, no one had ever caught crabs in this mountain stream, so in a short while, she caught more than ten crabs.
However, tying crabs is too much work.
She straightened up and shouted, "Third brother, come and catch crabs with me."
"Yiyi, are there any crabs here?" The voice of Brother Yun San came over.
Yun Yiyi held up the string of crabs in her hand and showed it to Third Brother Yun.
"Third brother, bring the basket over here."
"Haha, it seems there really are crabs." Third Brother Yun said to himself.
He picked up his basket and began to climb.
By the time Third Brother Yun climbed up, Yun Yiyi took the opportunity to catch two crabs.
Brother Yun San looked at the dozen or so crabs moving around and said excitedly, "Yiyi, you're amazing. How did you find crabs in the stream?"
Yun Yiyi put all the crabs into the basket and said, "Third brother, I was tired just now. When I sat down to rest, I saw a hole. I dug in it out of curiosity and unexpectedly I pulled out a crab."
Third Brother Yun laughed heartily. "Yiyi, I didn't expect this to work. But you're really too brave. Aren't you afraid of getting a snake?"
"Third brother, I'm not afraid. If we get a snake, we'll have meat to eat tonight."
"Third brother, let me tell you, look under the grass next to the stream, close to the hillside. There's this kind of hole, usually a crab hole."
"Also, there are crabs under the rocks in the mountain stream."
"How about this, Third Brother, you go one way and I go the other, and we go crab hunting together?"
"Okay, Yiyi, let's get started now."
So, Yun Yiyi and Yun San Ge each occupied one side of the mountain stream and began to look for crabs.
"Yiyi, come and take a look, I found two crabs at once."
Hearing Third Brother Yun's shout, Yun Yiyi hurried over and saw two large crabs gathered together under a piece of rock.
"Third brother, these two crabs are good, they are quite big."
"Yeah, Yiyi. I also think I'm lucky."
After looking at it, Yun Yiyi went back to look for crabs.
An hour later, the two men harvested more than a hundred crabs.
"Third brother, are we still going to catch crabs? Or should we continue picking wild celery?"
Brother Yun San looked down guiltily and said, "Okay, Yiyi, let's go down while picking."
"Okay, Third Brother."
More than ten minutes later, "Yiyi, Third Brother, my eldest brother and I are going down the mountain. You two should fill the baskets with wild celery and bring them down."
"Here I come, second brother."
"Third brother, if we put wild celery directly in front of the crab, will it crush the crab to death?"
"I have a solution, Yiyi."
Brother Yun San went to the side and found some thicker branches. Then, he broke the branches into sections.
Then use the branches to build a flat surface in front of the crab.
Yun Yiyi excitedly gave a thumbs up, "Third brother, your method is great."
"Haha, I used to see my brother and his friends pick wild fruits and build a small rack with branches like this. The wild fruits are placed underneath so they won't be crushed."
"Third brother, your memory is so good."
Third Brother Yun laughed out loud with joy.
Yun Yiyi and Yun San Ge walked downstairs while putting wild celery into the basket.
When they arrived at Brother Yun's place, the basket was already stuffed full.
"Third brother, Yiyi, I didn't expect you two to be so agile."
"Second brother, it just so happened that I was with third brother, so it was a little faster to install it."
"Oh, brother, Yiyi and I just caught over a hundred crabs in the mountain stream. They're right under the basket."
"Remember to take out the crabs when you get back later."
Second Brother Yun was surprised. "You two actually caught so many crabs. Amazing."
"Second brother, go back and ask mom how to make this crab delicious. If mom is willing to cook it, third brother and I can find some more crabs this afternoon."
After Yun Yiyi finished speaking, she stared at Second Brother Yun and said, "Second Brother, you must remember to ask mother."
"Yes, second brother. I think crabs taste very good." Third Brother Yun said with a look of aftertaste.
"Don't worry, I will remember to ask mother." Second Brother Yun raised his hands helplessly and promised.
Seeing this, Third Brother Yun and Yun Yiyi felt relieved.
"Yiyi, take down your stick and let me use it. Your second brother and I need it to carry this basket down the mountain."
"Brother, I'll get you a stick."
Yun Yiyi ran back, took the stick down and handed it to her second brother Yun.
Big Brother Yun and Second Brother Yun each carried a basket on their backs, and the two of them also carried a basket of wild celery down the mountain with a stick.
Yun Yiyi and Yun San Ge continued to climb to the top of the mountain stream to pick wild celery.
On this side, Brother Yun (Eldest Brother) and Brother Yun (Second Brother) also quickly returned to their home at the foot of the mountain.
Butcher Yun and Zhang hurried to help unload the basket.
Zhang looked at them distressedly and said, "Big brother, second brother, just carry one basket down the mountain."
"Why do you have to carry another basket down? You two are sweating profusely."
"There's some cool, boiled water in the jar. Wash your hands, drink a bowl of it, and then go up the mountain."
"Mom, this road to the mountain stream is the one we are most familiar with. Even if we have to carry one more basket, we can still walk safely."
Brother Yun said with a smile.
Second Brother Yun also looked at Zhang happily, "Mom, Third Brother and Yiyi, let me ask you, how do you cook crabs to make them delicious?"
Zhang was stunned when she heard this. "Second brother, why did Yiyi and Third brother think of asking this question?"
"Even if I told you, we don't have any crabs to cook at home right now?"
