Chapter 415 I Like to Eat
It was a pity that the mother and daughter did not bring anything like a bamboo basket when they went out. The cherries were too big, and after Mrs. He picked a few, she could no longer hold them in her hands.
In desperation, she could only return to He Zhiran and let her satisfy her craving first.
He Zhiran has never had so many rules as the ancients. When he saw his mother coming, he simply lifted the hem of his skirt and made it into a pocket shape.
"Mom, just put it here."
Mrs. He was a little surprised at her daughter's behavior at first. When she was in the capital, although her daughter did not like to learn the skills of the ladies from wealthy families, she was no less dignified than other young ladies.
He Zhiran's actions now are completely different from those of the original owner when he was in the capital.
Mrs. He was surprised for a moment, but quickly found an excuse for her daughter's behavior.
My daughter must have suffered a lot on the road, and now she lives in the countryside, so the rules and etiquette she learned are of no use at all.
Especially when you are on the road of exile, you may not even have enough food to eat, so who can you show your dignity to?
Thinking of this, Mrs. He felt inexplicably sad. Therefore, she did not remind He Zhiran to pay attention to etiquette at all, but instead followed her wishes and put the big cherry in her skirt.
Not only that, when Mrs. He went back to pick cherries again, she actually imitated He Zhiran and used the hem of her skirt as a pocket, and did not come back until she had picked enough cherries.
"Ranran, do you like eating this? Look, mom picked so much."
I'm so down-to-earth, He Zhiran must encourage me.
"Thank you, Mom. I like it."
Mrs. He was extremely happy to hear her daughter say this. It had been almost a year, and she was finally able to do something for her daughter. Although it was just a small thing, it was also a happiness for a mother.
After picking so many big cherries, it was not convenient for the mother and daughter to go further, so they simply went back home together.
Don't underestimate the big cherries in Mrs. He's lapel pocket. He Zhiran estimated that they weighed at least seven or eight kilograms.
Although the yield of cherries on each tree is not large, there are so many fruit trees that Mrs. He picked so many cherries from just a few nearby trees.
He Zhiran estimated that if all the big cherries on the trees were picked, there would be several hundred kilograms.
However, she doesn't plan to sell these hundreds of kilograms of cherries for the time being.
Not to mention that the Mohist family has a large population, so many old subordinates have come to join them, and there are also friends like Meng Huaining and Tang Mingrui. Everyone can share some and try it first.
If you want to make money, wait until next year when there is a big harvest. You will definitely make a lot of money, so there is no need to rush.
But it would not be the mother and daughter who would pick the remaining big cherries.
After returning home, He Zhiran asked Yu'er to call someone to pick cherries. She had just tasted a few and they were fully ripe and tasted the best.
What the Mo family lacks the least now is manpower. Less than an hour after Lan'er went out, she came back with a group of people carrying several baskets of big cherries.
He Zhiran distributed the food while it was fresh.
Each of the former Mohist followers received ten kilograms.
Liang Hao and his friends are currently alone, so each of them gets 5 kilograms.
Anyway, they have a big appetite and they can probably eat it all in one day.
Although the Mo family has not explicitly stated that they are splitting up, they are all living in their own small families. Naturally, this delicious fruit should be distributed to each small family.
He Zhiran also asked Mo Jiuye to send a basket to his fifth brother and his friends who were developing gunpowder in the mountains.
Liang Hao was responsible for delivering the food to Tang Mingrui and Meng Huaining, giving each of them ten kilograms to try.
In addition, Nanrui, Hu Cong, Fang family and Xie family all have a share.
She even sent Lan'er to deliver some to several households in the village that had close relations with the Mo family.
Seeing her daughter being so generous and quickly distributing all the big cherries until there were only a few left, Mrs. He felt a little painful.
He had attended palace banquets in the past. Given the deliciousness of these big cherries, they would be top-notch even at a palace banquet.
In the end, her precious daughter was completely gone after just a few words...
He Zhiran didn't know that her mother felt sorry for her generosity. She sat there chatting and laughing with everyone while eating big cherries.
Suddenly, a series of muffled sounds came from the direction of the mountain.
He Zhiran stood up immediately and walked quickly out of the house.
The sound was very familiar to her, it was the sound of an explosion.
Several brothers have gone into the mountains to research gunpowder and have not returned for many days. Mo Jiuye has been busy with family matters and has not gone up the mountain to check. Now he has no idea how the progress of gunpowder research is.
However, based on the sound, He Zhiran could be sure that the gunpowder should have been successfully developed, but his brothers had not yet fully mastered the scale, which led to the explosion.
What’s more important is that gunpowder is extremely lethal. I don’t know if any of my brothers are injured.
The sound was quite loud. Although Mrs. He didn't know where the sound came from, it didn't prevent her from being startled.
She thought He Zhiran was also frightened because he suddenly stood up, and she didn't care about her accelerated heartbeat and hurried forward to comfort her daughter.
Mrs. He patted He Zhiran's shoulder gently: "Ranran, don't be afraid, mother is here."
He Zhiran was not afraid, she was worried. However, given her current situation, it was impossible for her to go up the mountain to see what was going on.
Fortunately, Mo Jiuye had just gone over with a basket of cherries. I guess after hearing the explosion, he would go over to check as quickly as possible.
Sure enough, Mo Jiuye had just reached halfway up the mountain when he heard a series of loud noises.
He might have been thinking the same thing as He Zhiran, and he was mainly worried about the safety of his brothers.
He had personally experienced the power of his wife's space grenade. Although this explosive was not as big as a grenade, it should not be underestimated.
The more Mo Jiuye thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he had already increased his lightness skill speed to the extreme.
About a quarter of an hour later, he appeared in front of the cave where Fifth Brother and others were developing gunpowder.
He was stunned by the scene before him.
The entrance to the cave where gunpowder was made was in a mess. Not only that, the ground had turned black, and there were countless deep pits of varying sizes around it.
Mo Jiuye put down the bamboo basket in his hand and was about to go check it out when he heard someone calling him from behind.
"Ninth brother, quickly pull fifth brother up."
The voice not only sounded weak, but also a little embarrassed.
Mo Jiuye turned around and saw a person crawling out of a deep pit not far behind him.
Fifth Brother's hair is messy, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as "frizzy".
Except for a mouthful of snow-white teeth that showed when he spoke, his face was completely black.
Not only that, the fifth brother's clothes also became tattered, and were almost as tattered as those of the eldest and second brothers when they were on the sixth hill.
Seeing that Mo Jiuye was still standing there in a daze, the fifth brother became a little anxious.
"Ninth brother, pull me up quickly."
