Chapter 164: Prickling and painful.

After chatting for a few sentences.

Because it was Song Qingqian's first time to go to the back mountain, Jiang Rou began to introduce some situations to her.

For example, distance, location, and mountain roads.

She noticed that Song Qingqian had changed her clothes today. They were no longer as neat and tidy as before. Even her shoes were changed into ordinary and comfortable cloth shoes.

And her hair, which had always been tied behind her head, was let down today and tied into a thick braid.

These are small details that Jiang Rou never mentioned, but Song Qingqian has already made changes.

besides.

Jiang Rou was worried that Song Qingqian would know nothing about wild vegetables after going up the mountain, so she described them as best as possible so that she could have a general understanding in her mind.

We are chatting here.

The sisters-in-law in front were not idle either.

Two sisters-in-law were walking on Zhao Guifen's left and right, talking and looking back stealthily.

Especially looking at Song Qingqian.

The sister-in-law on the left is younger and less courageous. She pulled Zhao Guifen and said nervously.

"Sister Guifen, are you really going to let her live with us? What if the news gets out and we are said to be the same as her?"

"What are the differences? Have you forgotten what Sister Hong said before? We are now on an isolated island, and the people in the compound are our brothers and sisters. We are one family. Have you forgotten?"

Zhao Guifen first said something rude, then softened her tone and spoke.

"If you're worried, just stay away from her."

Having said that.

But the sister-in-law on the left didn't leave, she kept looking back.

The look in Zhao Guifen's sister-in-law's eyes was much bolder.

She spoke with a northeastern accent, so she must be from the same hometown as Zhao Guifen.

"Gui Fen, Sister Rou's child is wearing two sets of clothes. Was it really Song Qingqian who taught her this? Why do I feel that it doesn't look like that?"

Zhao Guifen said, "It must be. I've seen Sister Rou go out recently, and she comes back with two more sets of clothes. And I've seen Sister Rou's sewing skills, and her stitches are all messy. She definitely can't make clothes by herself."

The sister-in-law's eyes lit up and she asked again.

"So... is she really willing to teach us how to make clothes? And is she willing to let us use the sewing machine? My sister from my hometown paid twenty yuan for the tuition to learn sewing from the master, and she also worked for three months for free."

Zhao Guifen was also confused about this.

After all, they heard what Jiang Rou said just now, not Song Qingqian herself.

Zhao Guifen also wanted to learn how to use a sewing machine. With a sewing machine, it would be so convenient to make clothes.

She thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry, we'll look around today. If we get along well, I'll ask on the way back."

"Okay. Guifen, whether my child has new clothes to wear is up to you."

"You bitch, you only know how to take advantage of others all day long. If you want to take advantage of others, then stop talking nonsense. If anyone talks nonsense again today, I will turn around and report it to Sister Hong."

"No, no. I won't talk nonsense today."

…

We were talking and walking like this, without even noticing the passage of time, and in the blink of an eye we were climbing the mountain.

Climb up along the ridge.

The position they were in was getting higher and higher.

Song Qingqian doesn't exercise much and her physical condition is not as good as Jiang Rou's. After walking for such a long time, she started to breathe heavily.

Jiang Rou was so angry that she didn't even breathe a sigh of relief.

Not only did she walk by herself, she also held a child in one hand. Her strength was unparalleled.

Song Qingqian stopped several times, taking deep breaths to rest.

Her face was flushed from exercise and covered in sweat, and her whole face was shining in the sunlight.

When I turned my head and looked back.

Song Qingqian found that she was already standing at such a high place.

Looking down from the hillside, you can see the military barracks, compounds, docks in the distance, and the coastline further away.

It seemed as if the entire island was at their feet.

What a nice view……

Song Qingqian had seen too many houses with small bridges, flowing water and too many luxurious villas, but she had never seen such a magnificent scenery.

She seemed like a little bird in the sky, overlooking the entire earth.

The wind carries not only the moisture of the sea water, but also the freshness of the fields.

This was a faint fragrance that she had never experienced before, no matter how many roses she planted in the yard.

Song Qingqian looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help feeling a little flustered, unconsciously ignoring his physical fatigue.

Jiang Rou didn't care about the scenery.

She squinted her eyes slightly and searched carefully in the green grass.

Then I caught a hint of red from it.

“Found it!”

Jiang Rou exclaimed with joy.

She immediately walked towards the direction of the red dots.

Hearing Jiang Rou's movements, Song Qingqian, Zhou Xiaochuan and Zhou Xiaohua also followed her.

They followed Jiang Rou's footsteps and soon saw numerous red dots in the weeds.

That is penglei

The last time Jiang Rou came to this hillside to pick wild vegetables, the fleabane had just begun to bloom small white flowers but had not yet produced fruit.

Now more than half a month has passed, the white flowers have fallen, and the red amaranth has already borne fruit.

The strawberry has another more common name, wild strawberry.

Because the small red fruits of the pomelo look exactly like strawberries.

Not only do they look similar, but they also taste similar.

They are all sour, sweet and juicy fruits.

Moreover, both fruits are very soft and difficult to transport, so they are best eaten right after they are picked.

But there are also differences.

For example, the fruit of the pomelo is much smaller than the strawberry, usually only the size of a finger.

Although the fruit of the pampas grass is round, it is hollow in the middle.

More like a western raspberry.

It’s just that in this era, raspberries are not yet popular in the country, and most people still call them wild strawberries.

After walking in, Jiang Rou discovered that the whole area was filled with bright red fruits. In some places, they were so densely packed that they looked like grapes hanging on the branches.

"many!"

Jiang Rou sighed deeply, her eyes filled with excitement.

Song Qingqian looked at the scene in front of him, which was quite incredible, and then swallowed hard. (ˉ﹃ˉ)

"Arou, are these... edible?"

"Of course you can eat it. It tastes just like strawberries."

Jiang Rou immediately nodded in response.

When she heard that they were edible, Zhou Xiaohua couldn't help herself and reached out to pick the red fruits to eat.

But--

"careful."

Jiang Rou hurriedly spoke out to stop him.
