Chapter 40 Discovering Chestnut and Crabapple Trees



"Gao Wenle, Liang Tian, ​​Zhang Wenhui, Zhang Lei, Zhou Aihua, Zhao Xiangqian..."

Liang Tian is the girl with big eyes and a bit of a spoiled look, but most of them are rather spoiled.

Everyone responded one by one after listening to Jin San's voice, until finally, Jin San nodded. There were fifteen people in total, not one less.

"Everyone is here, let's go."

All the things were thrown onto the ox cart. Jin San drove the cart and everyone followed.

After about ten minutes, Liang Tian started complaining about foot pain. "How far is it? My feet hurt so much I can't walk anymore. We came to the countryside to help you. You can't treat us like this."

She was wearing a pair of small leather shoes with tiny heels. At that time, no matter how comfortable the small leather shoes were, they could not compare to cloth shoes. When it came to walking, it was more convenient to wear cloth shoes.

"I'm not leaving!" Seeing that Jin San ignored her, Liang Tian just stood there motionless.

Looking at her like this, Jin San felt that Lan Qiqi and Fan Tuan didn't seem to be as pampered as they were at that time.

"What do you want?" Jin San asked.

As for others, they didn't say anything at all. They wanted to wait and see what the situation was before making a decision.

"I want to ride in a bullock cart."

At this time, several girls also spoke up, "Yeah, we can't walk anymore, even though there is an ox cart!"

Jin San looked at them indifferently, "Either leave or stay. I'm telling you, there are wolves and blind bears here."

After saying that, Jin San drove away first. Zhao Xiangqian said, "Let's go quickly, there are indeed many wild animals in Heilongjiang Province."

Zhao Xiangqian's family also lives in a compound, and his brother is a soldier. However, because he is in poor health, he and Lu Jinnian are two sickly people in the compound, and no girl would consider them for blind dates.

Since none of us were able to join the army, we went to the countryside to train ourselves.

Zhou Aihua also nodded and said, "We are here to build Qiujia Village, not to cause trouble for it."

When this was said, several people agreed with it. They could be said to have come here with a lot of enthusiasm.

As for what they can achieve, that depends on the situation, but they will definitely try their best and will not back down in the slightest.

Hearing this, Jin San nodded secretly. It seemed that some of this group of people were quite capable.

"Let's go." Jin San said. He didn't tell them how far they were, because if he said it, they might get discouraged after walking for so long.

This is perfect now.

On the other hand, Qiu Guangdong took everyone to the mountains to hunt and gather early, and this time both men and women came together.

When Qiu Yantang went up the mountain before, he saw many wild fruits ripening on the mountain, including small apples, crabapples, sour pears, ugly apples, etc.

"Oh my little ancestor, why are you climbing so high?" Wei Dengzhi didn't notice that Qiu Yantang jumped directly onto the tree.

"Dengzhi, you guys wait down there, I'll pick the fruits and throw them to you."

This pear has a strong sour-sweet taste, and birds don’t like it very much, so it grows very well, without even a scar on the skin.

This kind of pear tastes like Nanguo pear. It tastes good when eaten directly, but you can't eat too much of it, as it can easily cause constipation.

If you pick them this season, just put them in a small jar outside. When it snows, they will become frozen pears, which tastes really good.

"Then little ancestor, you better be careful."

After Wei Dengzhi finished speaking, Qiu Yantang started picking pears and throwing them down. She controlled her strength very well, so the pears were not damaged at all. Moreover, the ones Qiu Yantang picked from the tree had plenty of sunlight and were sweeter.

"There's a chestnut tree over there!" Qiu Yantang was on the tree, standing high up and able to see far...

After they finished picking the pears from the tree, they hurried over there.

From a distance, I saw two chestnut trees standing next to each other. They were full of chestnuts, and there were also chestnuts falling all over the ground under the trees.

"This is chestnut. I thought it grew in the ground like peanuts!" Qiu Xiaocao looked incredible. They didn't come here in previous years because there were many wild beasts. This year, because Qiu Yantang was here, they rushed here.

"They grow on trees. When they are ripe, they will fall down and explode." Qiu Yantang said, looking at the chestnuts on the ground and on the trees.

Qiu Yantang shouted directly, "Da Zhuang!"

Ye Dazhuang ran over quickly. He was a pure Manchu, not too tall and rather thin, but he was extremely strong!

"Little Ancestor, what's wrong? The village chief assigned me to you. Tell me if you have any work to do!"

Ye Dazhuang patted his chest and said that in their Qiujia Village, the Manchus and the Han people were all one family, and they were all good at work.

"Da Zhuang, you can't do it by yourself. Call a few people over to carry the pears back first, and then come back to carry the chestnuts."

At this time, Ye Dazhuang also noticed that the chestnut tree in front of him was full of chestnuts!

"Okay, don't worry, little ancestor!" After saying that, he carried two bags of pears down the mountain.

Qiu Yantang and the others continued to pack chestnuts. "If these chestnuts were made into yellow rice balls, how delicious would they be?"

Qiu Manzhi said that she came here today because she knew that the little ancestor was very lucky. Now after seeing it, she realized that it was even better than she had imagined.

"Don't worry, these chestnuts will be distributed to everyone when the time comes. You can do whatever you want with them!" Qiu Yantang said. She was never stingy with her own people.

"Little ancestor, it's great to have you in Qiujia Village!" Qiu Manyi was very touched. Qiu Yantang treated them so well.

"Huh, goose bumps." Qiu Yantang said. She was a little insensitive to this kind of emotion. She felt that she was a member of Qiu Village, so she would be nice to others.

As for Lan Qiqi and Fan Tuan, it’s because they are not annoying.

Soon they finished installing everything. Ye Dazhuang and a few others ran back and forth three times...

Qiu Yantang felt a little sorry that there were no pine nuts and hazelnuts this year, and there were no fruits on the trees. She didn't know why.

Without giving it much thought, she soon saw a small patch of crabapple trees. There weren't many fruits hanging on each tree, but when they added up, there were quite a few. When she sliced ​​them and dried them, they would be a very good snack in the winter.

Qiu Manzhi picked one directly and rubbed it on his body. At this time, they didn’t care too much, as the fruits in the mountains did not contain any pesticides.

"Crack," the sound is particularly crisp, and the sweet and sour juice bursts in the mouth.

"tasty!"

Everyone started eating. The crabapple is more delicious when it is crispy. If it is soft, it will not taste so good.

"You can pick them. I'll go to Guangdong and the others to take a look." After saying that, he picked two fruits and left.
