Chapter 931 Do You Want to Try
The two people who were picking mulberries on the tree have come down. They really didn't miss any of the mulberries except the green ones. They picked them all!
When I got down from the tree, I found that everyone was gone. Not even a shadow.
This place is remote, but the resources are quite rich. The two of them didn't just sit there and wait, but walked around to look for wild vegetables.
They were lucky. Not only did they pick some agave and dandelions, they also found an elm tree and picked half a bag of elm seeds and leaves.
"There are several locust trees nearby. If we wait for more than half a month, we can eat locust flowers." The two said happily.
Ding Rongquan smiled and nodded: "There are many good things in the mountains, but they are a little far away. Here, this is the March bubble we picked, you can try it."
Each of them took two, rubbed them on their bodies, and put them in their mouths. Due to limited conditions, everyone gradually abandoned certain hygiene habits.
"Oh, it's delicious, but a little sour."
“Oh, just be content. If it weren’t for Brother Shen leading the way, we wouldn’t be able to find any prickly ash today, let alone pick any mulberries.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Yanming quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, no, don't say that. The thing is clearly growing in the mountains. As long as you look carefully, you can find it."
A few people laughed and didn't take it seriously. It's not like they haven't looked for it before, but in the end, they either didn't find it or they didn't dare to look for it in the deep mountains and old forests.
"Well, there may be wild beasts in the deep mountains. If you go there, be sure to bring weapons and call for help. Otherwise it will be very troublesome if you encounter danger." Shen Yanming reminded.
Ding Rongquan nodded and thanked him: "Thank you, Brother Shen, for reminding me. Well, if we want to go into the mountains later, can we find you?"
Shen Yanming shook his head and declined: "I'm busy with work, I'm afraid I won't have the opportunity to come out often."
Ding Rongquan looked regretful: "That's such a pity."
Several people came to the bottom of the mountain with their bags. There were many people picking wild vegetables and mushrooms here, and they gathered around when they saw the bags.
"Oh my god, what is this? Where did you pick this wild fruit from?"
Ding Rongquan was a little embarrassed, not knowing whether he should tell them or not. The raspberry bush had already been picked by them, so it would be useless even if he told others the location.
Shen Yanming didn't have so many concerns. He pointed in a direction: "There is a small road there. Walk along the road for two or three hours and you will see it."
The onlookers had different thoughts. Those who thought less took it seriously and ran away with their small baskets. Those who thought more deeply thought Shen Yanming was lying because they clearly came from another direction.
But she didn't say it explicitly, just forced a smile and walked away. When she turned her back to Shen Yanming, she pouted and cursed in her heart.
When it was evening, we saw a group of people coming back happily with small baskets on their shoulders, and we were dumbfounded.
It turned out that Shen Yanming had not fooled them. There really were wild fruits there. It was too late to regret.
Speaking of which, after the people here dispersed, Ding Rongquan asked Shen Yanming in a low voice: “Are you serious?”
Shen Yanming curled his lips slightly, looked at him and asked, "What do you think?"
Ding Rongquan thought about it and felt that he must be fooling people, otherwise, why didn't he pick them himself. An An and Nuan Nuan's two little guys liked March bubbles very much at first sight. Their love for raspberries was completely different from that for mulberries.
But he didn't know that the two children were just thinking of Li Sikai, the uncle who always picked mulberries and prickly ash for them.
Chen Yanming ignored them, said goodbye and left with the mother and her two children.
They talked and laughed along the way. When they passed Area C, he gave half of the fruit to Niu Niu and then went home.
"See, I was right, Wen Nuan can't get divorced."
Shen Yanming nodded: "Yeah. But Wei Jiahe has been behaving well recently and hasn't been making trouble anymore. It's like he's suddenly grown up."
"If he doesn't grow up, he won't be worthy of being a human being. His father is so disappointed that no one will take care of him. At most, we can provide him with two meals a day to keep him from getting hungry, but nothing else."
"It's a good thing to turn back after losing your way."
“I just hope he can keep it up.”
When the family of four returned home, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan picked and chose the wild vegetables and mushrooms, cleaned them up, and spread them out on the balcony to dry. The same was true for the mulberries and raspberries.
An'an Nuannuan was used to eating the food grown in the space, so she didn't make a fuss about eating. Instead, she stepped forward with her short legs to help.
After finishing the work, we went to wash up. Then the family of four collapsed on the sofa, feeling very tired.
Half an hour later, Shen Yanming rubbed Bi Qiaoan's head: "What do you want to eat tonight?"
Bi Qiaoan looked at the sky and saw that it was still bright, so he shook his head and said, "Let's talk about it later. How about getting everyone a piece of cake to try first?"
An An and Nuan Nuan's eyes lit up immediately. They hugged Shen Yanming's arm and said, "Daddy, daddy, I want chocolate flavor."
Shen Yanming nodded and turned to look at Bi Qiaoan: "Wife, what flavor do you want to eat?"
"Durian." Bi Qiaoan chuckled, "I thought you would just take the chocolate."
Shen Yanming pinched her face and said, "You are my wife, so I must put you first."
Bi Qiaoan was very pleased with Shen Yanming's words. She hugged her husband and kissed him on the mouth.
When An An and Nuan Nuan saw this, she giggled and said, "Mommy kissed Daddy, so shameful!"
Bi Qiaoan rolled her eyes, poked Shen Yanming's chest with her finger, and pretended to be wronged: "When did our baby learn these words?"
Shen Yanming pinched her fingers and kissed them, then smiled and looked at the mother and her two children with an extremely doting look.
In the next few days, the family of four went out every day just like everyone else in the base. Sometimes they would just wander around the base, and sometimes they would just stay out overnight if they went to a far place.
Anyway, there were many people who had the same plan as them, so there was nothing special about these few people. It was just that they gained a lot and attracted a little attention from others.
But the couple were not particularly solitary people. They would either bring others to look for supplies or give people directions, so they did not cause public outrage.
On the contrary, many people are happy to follow them and take advantage of the bargains.
Ding Rongquan and the couple encountered this situation twice, and together they pulled up a lot of broom seedlings and ground vegetables. It can be said that they returned with a full load.
At the end of May, Ding Rongquan and his team found a beehive while collecting bird eggs. It grew in a tree hole and was very large, but a little difficult to deal with.
He and his family used torches to smoke out the fingernail-sized bees, but before they even got close, they were stung by several large bites.
I had no choice but to give up, but I was still unwilling to do so.
Just then, he ran into Shen Yanming's family, so he pulled them aside and whispered about the situation over there.
"That honeycomb is huge, and there's plenty of honey. I counted it, and there are at least seven or eight layers. Each layer is filled to the brim with honey, and it makes me drool. If there wasn't so much honey, I would have given up. How about it, do you want to try it?"
