Although Jianshu didn't know what Tiedan was thinking, he could guess roughly that he just wanted to pick more to take home.
It's really pitiful that he has to live frugally for his family at such a young age.
Jian Shu patted his head and said with a smile, "Okay, it just so happens that my sister hasn't picked enough yet. Let's go back quickly. While it's still early, maybe we can make a few more trips."
If she didn't agree, the child would definitely run to the mountains alone. She was worried about letting such a young child go up the mountain alone.
Although there are no dangers from wild animals, what if you sprain your ankle or fall? If something really happens, it will be too late to regret it.
She really couldn't feel at ease without someone by her side.
Seeing Jianshu agreed, Tiedan was also very happy. He liked the beautiful sister very much. "Then let's hurry up and come back again after we go back. There are many people in the mountains. If we are late, we won't be able to pick it up."
There were plenty of mushrooms, but there was also a lot of competition. Who would complain about having too much food? Everyone who went up the mountain probably felt the same way.
Knowing that he was anxious, Jianshu didn't waste any time and followed him downstairs with the basket on his shoulder.
As the saying goes, it is easier to go up the mountain than to go down. In addition, it rained yesterday, so the way down the mountain was even more difficult than usual.
Nowadays, there are no neatly built stone stairs, only narrow paths trampled out by people, and there are even no roads in some places. Anyway, it is extremely difficult for Jianshu to walk, and she dare not look far away, otherwise she is afraid that her legs will tremble.
Having gone up the mountain with her many times, Tiedan was very clear about this and would naturally walk in front to lead the way. He would also support Jianshu when they encountered difficult places.
"Beautiful sister, there is a slope here, be careful!"
"Got it. Thank you, Tiedan. Go slower too, don't fall."
"It's okay. I'm familiar with this place. I can walk with my eyes closed. I won't fall."
"It's better to be careful."
"I know. The road ahead is not easy to walk on. Pretty sister, please slow down, pay attention to the road, and follow me."
"Then I'll trouble you, Tiedan!"
“…”
“…”
Such conversations continued to be heard in the forest, bringing a lot of excitement to the somewhat quiet forest.
On the way down the mountain, Jianshu used both his hands and feet. He accidentally slipped twice and fell on his butt, which caused Tiedan to laugh at him mercilessly. Jianshu felt embarrassed and annoyed.
She is an adult but not as good as a child, and seems to be a burden.
Fortunately, the soil was soft and she didn't fall hard. Except for the pain when she first fell, she recovered quickly.
Tiedan laughed, but he was still very careful on the road. If Jianshu hadn't disagreed, he would have wanted to help Jianshu walk.
But how could Jianshu possibly agree to this? Even if she was sensible, she was still just a tiny child. How much strength could she have? If she really fell, would he be able to hold her back? The end result would be that they would both fall.
Why bother?
It would be better for her to walk carefully. Even if she falls, only one person will fall.
After walking slowly all the way, the two finally reached the foot of the mountain. The rest of the road was much easier to walk. They quickened their pace and parted at the backyard gate of Jianshu's house, agreeing to meet there later.
Seeing Tiedan running home with a basket, Jianshu hurriedly opened the back door and walked towards the kitchen along the stone path in the vegetable garden.
He put the basket in the corner, took out a larger backpack, cleaned the dirt off his body, and quickly put on the backpack and went out.
She timed it just right. Just as she closed the gate, Tiedan came running over with a backpack on his back.
Jianshu had not expected to be able to pick so many mushrooms, so he just found a basket and went up the mountain.
Now that I know there are a lot of mushrooms in the mountains, a backpack that I can carry on my back is of course more convenient than a basket that I need to carry on my shoulders. Not only does it free my hands, but it also makes it easier to move around.
"Beautiful sister, let's go quickly!" Tiedan pulled Jianshu and ran up the mountain.
When they went down the mountain, there were still many people there, so they had to hurry.
"Okay, let's run faster." Jianshu also cooperated and sped up.
After all, I have made a round trip, and now I am much more familiar with the way, and it is not as difficult as before.
This time they took a different, more remote route up the mountain, which allowed them to meet fewer people and pick more mushrooms.
He picked up mushrooms as he walked and threw them into the basket. Soon, there were more and more mushrooms in the basket.
This time, Jianshu picked mushrooms even slower, and most of them were picked up by Tiedan.
Fortunately, both of them were carrying backpacks on their backs, and Jianshu was much taller than him, so he didn't notice anything.
Tiedan was young and was so focused on picking mushrooms that he didn't notice this.
When picking mushrooms, Jianshu focused most of his attention on the nearby plants, trying to find out if there were any wild vegetables or fruits.
Wild vegetables are not like mushrooms. They are not easy to store and taste better when they are fresh. It’s okay for her to pick more.
Although there were a lot of vegetables at home, Jianshu also wanted to try some fresh ones occasionally. After all, since she was already here, it would be unfair to her fall if she didn't fill her backpack full.
It’s a pity that Jianshu’s eyesight is really not good. There are many trees, grasses and plants in the mountains, and he doesn’t know many wild vegetables. After searching for a long time, he found nothing. He had no choice but to continue squatting on the ground and slowly picking mushrooms.
During this time, she sneaked away for a while, hiding from Tiedan, and then came back quietly to continue squatting and picking mushrooms.
Just as the backpack was gradually filling up and Jianshu was already disappointed with picking wild vegetables and fruits, Tiedan's exclamation came from not far away.
"Wow, pretty sister, come here!" He was about to shout something when he quickly covered his mouth. Then, like a thief, he quietly waved at Jianshu.
Looking in the direction where she was, Jian Shu's eyes flashed with a smile, then he stood up with a puzzled look on his face and hurried over, "What's wrong? What's wrong? What happened? My sister is here!"
Seeing her running over, Tiedan waved and looked around for a moment. After making sure that no one was around, he parted the bushes and said happily, "Look, beautiful sister! Pheasants! Two pheasants!"
Even though he tried to keep his voice down, one could still sense the excitement in his tone.
"Pheasant! How come there is a pheasant here?" Jian Shu showed an expression of excitement and confusion.
It seems as if he knows nothing about the origin of pheasants.
