Simple was just for fun; as usual, he lost interest after digging for a while. Seeing the others' seriousness, he told Mingzhu and simply walked a little further in. Instead of entering the woods, he used a stick to rummage through the weeds around them.
Soon, several clusters of red berries were discovered.
Hey! There really is.
A quick glance to the side revealed a few scattered pieces, quite a few in total, though only a few were red. However, that was enough to appease the child. Looking up, I called out loudly,
"Children, come quick! There's something delicious to eat!"
Instantly, a group of children rushed over, quite considerate of each other. Leading the way was little Huizhou, who had just joined today. He was clearly having a great time; his little face was rosy, and he dashed into Jian Dan's arms.
"Auntie, is something delicious?"
Ouch!
Jian Dan wasn't paying attention and was bumped into, causing him to stumble. He received a light slap on the butt.
"You brat, that's quite a bit of strength."
A group of children, some of whom had sharp eyes, had already spotted the small red strawberries. However, Jian Dan found them first, and they swallowed hard, not daring to move.

After Jian Dan gave the order, they cheered and excitedly crawled inside. Xiao Huizhou also twisted its body and crawled out from under Jian Dan's armpit, spotted the tree next to it, and stretched out its dark little claws.

"Don't pick that one, it's not ripe yet. Here, take this red one."
The child next to him didn't hold back either, taking a big bite with a "whoosh," his eyes squinting with satisfaction.
"Delicious!"
When Mingzhu came back after digging for a while, she saw a row of little heads engrossed in eating. Then she looked at her own son, who was holding a strawberry vine in his hand, but his little face was turned to the side as he accepted Hu Zi's feeding. His face was covered with red strawberry juice, and his little mouth was even more bright red.
The front of the clothes was also covered with red marks.
Even her own mother looked at it with disdain and simply curled her lip.
"This child cannot be kept."
