A few people picked up the grass and set off again!
The four of them walked forward for a while and passed through a low banana grove. Suddenly, their vision became bright and they exclaimed in surprise!
"Ahhh, treasure, treasure, Fangfang, you led us to find the treasure!" Xie Dazui was so happy that he was spinning in circles!
Although the other three were also happy, none of them were as outgoing as Xie Dazui, so they quietly moved their seats to leave more space for Xie Dazui!
In this small area ahead, there were five or six sturdy chestnut trees standing tall, with a few beech trees interspersed beside them.
The dense canopy of trees casts a cool shadow under the sun!!!
Thanks to the fact that I went to so many big fairs, otherwise I wouldn’t have recognized that the hairy ones are chestnuts and the triangular ones are beech nuts!
These trees are quite old and have grown quite tall. It is not yet late autumn, so the fruits are not yet fully ripe.
Although the chestnut buds have turned yellow-brown, they have not cracked.
Although the beech fruits have reached the stage of changing color and cracking, they are not ready for picking until the fruit is 90% ripe. Now you can still clearly see the green color with the naked eye.
These all mean that the fruit is not ripe! ! ! !
When Li Guifang finished explaining the basics to everyone, everyone obviously drooped!
"However," Li Guifang kept everyone in suspense before speaking slowly.
"What what?" Xie Dazui couldn't wait any longer and spoke hurriedly as soon as Li Guifang finished speaking.
I thought these fruits were out of their reach, but now things have turned around, hehe!!
“The chestnuts are almost ripe now. Just pick them and let them dry in the sun.
Pick the brown beech trees and air-dry them for a few days, and they will taste pretty good!"
Xie Dazui rolled up his sleeves and prepared to climb the tree before Li Guifang finished speaking.
Zhang Fengzhi rushed over and grabbed Xie Dazui by the collar, "Have you lost your mind at home?"
"What are you doing?" Xie Dazui was a little dissatisfied because Zhang Fengzhi interrupted his joy!
“You still want to climb such a tall tree? How old are you?” Zhang Fengzhi was very disappointed with him!!!
"Then what should I do?"
"Let's hold the tree and shake it, so that some of the ripe fruits will fall down," said Zhang Fengzhi, who was already kicking another chestnut tree.
Huang Xiuying followed suit and kicked the beech tree.
In an instant, fruit rain began to fall in this small space.
Several people were hit and screamed "Ouch"!
This made Li Guifang, who came back carrying a few banana leaves, speechless when she saw this scene.
Looking at the thorn balls and triangles all over the ground, well, she had done something unnecessary.
Huang Xiuying saw the banana leaves Li Guifang was holding and asked in confusion, "Fang, why are you picking banana leaves? They are not edible."
Li Guifang’s silence is deafening; silence is the Cambridge of Cuixing Ridge!!!
Zhang Fengzhi's face didn't look good either. Yes, she was hit silly!
Even though they knew that something was falling from the sky and would hit someone, the three of them still kept shaking stupidly, and got hit on the head.
It was obvious that finding something to block it would have a different effect, but they just didn't think of it.
Li Guifang looked at everyone's expressions and wanted to laugh but didn't dare. She sneezed twice before she stopped laughing. "Come on, let's pick some fruit!"
As he said this, he threw the banana leaf aside!
Because the fruits were not fully ripe yet and the shells were still hard, Li Guifang had to give up the idea of removing the shells to add more fruits. She just stuffed them into the backpack.
However, the backpack was already filled with a lot of wood ear mushrooms and two Clivia plants, so there was not much space left. I didn't pick much before the basket was full.
Just when Xie Dazui was saying “Ouch, ouch” because there were so many fruits on the ground that he hadn’t picked up, the banana leaves that Li Guifang dragged back finally came in handy.
Huang Xiuying fiddled with such large banana leaves, folding them left and right, and the flattened leaves became canvas bags, no, banana bags!
After praising Huang Xiuying for a while, I finally picked up all the fruits on the ground!!!
At this time, carrying a basket of fruits and a full basket on their back was a big challenge for these four old ladies.
Originally, when the wood ear mushrooms were free, they would occupy a lot of space, but when there were so many fruits pressing down on them, the density was pushed to the maximum!!!
The four of them struggled to carry the backpacks, and after they were steady, none of them said anything about going up the mountain again, and they all walked down the mountain in silence!!!
Fortunately, going down the mountain was easier than going up. After a while, the four of them arrived at the bottom of the mountain safely.
The four old ladies rested for a long time at the foot of the mountain and finally caught their breath.
Seeing that the sun was already setting, they hurriedly put their "trophies" in place and moved towards the bus stop.
By the time they finally squeezed onto the last bus bound for Hongxing Street, several people were so tired that they could not even speak clearly.
As soon as a few old ladies who were going to "report" there got on the bus, a few young men at the front of the bus jumped up with a "swoosh". Their movements were more efficient than being called by their leaders.
"Auntie, please sit down! There's room here!"
Xie Dazui was the most rude. He sat down on the seat with his butt. A few chestnuts in his backpack slipped out with a "clatter" and rolled onto the aisle.
"Oh my god!" She bent down hurriedly to pick it up, and the Clivia in the basket almost fell out again.
Li Guifang quickly held down her backpack and said, "Be quiet for a moment! Don't move around. Just ask the boy to help pass it over."
The other passengers in the carriage looked at the four old ladies who wanted to escape famine with curiosity.
Each person was holding something wrapped in banana leaves in his arms, and his backpack was filled with weeds, with a few thorn balls sticking out in the middle.
