"That's great, I want to take one back as a souvenir." Su Yunuo said and reached out to pick it up.
"Nono, don't touch it. This thing is very thorny and has no commemorative value. I will take you to the mountain to have a look."
The mountains on their side are not very high. There are often people walking on the mountain roads, and the roads are fairly smooth. There are tall trees on the mountains and there are no low bushes.
Xia Qixi will take them to the mountains to pick up a very special fruit called guaizao. The guaizao is sweet and can be eaten directly or made into wine.
"Xiao Qi, I saw a little squirrel!" Su Yunuo shouted excitedly.
Qin Momo took out her cell phone immediately, but before she took it out, the little squirrel was already scared away by her.
"Wow, what a pity." Su Yunnuo dug into his pockets and realized that he didn't bring his mobile phone. On the way here in the morning, he only took photos, and his mobile phone was out of battery. He was charging at Xiao Qi's grandparents' house.
"Have you never seen a little squirrel?" Xia Qixi has lived in the countryside since she was a child, and she often sees small animals, so she is not surprised.
"I've seen it before, but I've never seen it in the wild."
"There are some small animals on the mountain, and sometimes you can even see little rabbits. The last time I went to the mountain with my grandfather to collect firewood, I saw a little gray rabbit. It was jumping up and down. It was higher than outside.
Those pet rabbits I bought are much more interesting.”
"Then let's catch one and raise it to see if we can feed it." Qin Momo said with a smile.
"The premise is that you can catch it." Xia Qixi smiled.
Speaking of rabbits, Su Yunnuo thought of last night, when she transformed into a little white rabbit and was eaten dry by Jun Shaoqing. Now her waist still hurts.
She left her cell phone charging at home. I wonder if Jun Shaoqing would call her. He would send her messages when he was fine.
If there are squirrels on the mountain, there will naturally be pine cones.
"Nono, you can take this pine cone back as a souvenir."
"Is this pine cone filled with pine nuts?" Su Yunuo picked up a plump pine cone and shook it.
"Yes, we have it at home too. Have you tried it? It's very fragrant after it's fried, but there's too little meat."
"It turns out that pine nuts grow out of this place. I thought they were just like chestnuts." The two of them rarely go to the countryside, so everything they see is novel. As soon as they went up the mountain, they picked up a basket full of pine cones and said they wanted to
Take it home and fry it.
"You picked up so much that you can't even fry a plate after peeling it off, so it's better not to use it. Later we will go to Grandpa Li's house to buy some and take it back. They all picked up the big ones on the mountain. The one you picked up is too small. Besides,
We are going to pick up jujubes today, and you have packed so many pinecones that soon we won’t be able to hold the jujubes anymore.”
"What are guaizao and is it delicious?" Qin Momo asked: "I have eaten many kinds of dates, but I have never heard of guaizao."
"Strictly speaking, jujubes have nothing to do with jujubes. You will know when you see them soon. Jujubes are very sweet and delicious, but we mainly pick them up and make them into wine. Let you try the jujubes made by my grandpa in the evening.
Wine. Wine is also the grain wine made by my grandfather himself, and it is very fragrant."
"Xiao Qi, we really envy you. Your grandpa seems to know everything. We really want a treasured grandpa like this."
"Haha, right, I also think, how can my grandfather be so good? You haven't walked through the mountain road, so you must be very tired. Let's just hold on and we'll be there."
"Fortunately, I think it's quite fun and not very tiring."
"I'm not tired, but I'm wearing a little too much and I feel so bulky." Usually in the city, a cashmere bottoming sweater and a cotton jacket are enough. Today when she came to the country, Jun Shaoqing had to let her wear another sweater.
, the cotton jacket is also thick, and the sleeves feel tight, and I can't move them very well. I should have taken off the sweater just now and went up the mountain.
"Nono, let me carry the basket for you. Be careful and don't let the branches scratch your clothes."
"Oh, okay." She shouldn't have worn white cotton clothes today because they would get dirty easily.
"Nono, the more I look at you, the more you look like a little rabbit. You are so soft and cute. Anyone who sees you can't help but want to touch it." Xia Qixi couldn't help but sigh.
"That's right." Qin Momo couldn't help but sigh: "Other people look like aunts after giving birth, but she is better, she becomes younger and more delicate."
"Because my husband dotes on me." Su Yunuo couldn't help but show off her dear husband.
Speaking of Jun Shaoqing, Su Yunuo's eyes sparkled.
Because of Jun Shaoqing's love, she can live the way she likes.
"Hey, stop talking, I'm so upset. You two young married women must be very happy."
After a while, Xia Qixi took them to find a big jujube tree. When the wind blew, the jujube trees fell down.
"Xiao Qi, I didn't see any fruit." The two of them were puzzled.
"Actually, the guaizao looks very strange. It looks like a dead branch, and it is still twisting and turning. In some places, it is also called a dragon's claw. In fact, the guaizao is not the title of its book. It has a very nice name, called
That’s what Zhengyi is.” Xia Qixi picked up a bunch and showed them to them.
"Wow, it turns out to be this ugly thing. Are you sure it tastes good?"
"You can try it."
Qin Momo picked up a fresh one, tasted it, and nodded: "It's really sweet."
Su Yunnuo couldn't help but taste it and nodded: "Well, it also has a special fragrance. It's really sweet."
"When I was little, my grandma would go to the mountains to pick up dates and make sweets for me to eat. The other kids all ate the lollipops they bought, but I only ate the lollipops made by my grandma. My grandma was also very good at knowing how to
Make all kinds of delicious food. Knowing that you are coming this time, I specially asked my grandma to make maltose. I should be able to eat it tonight. You can take some home by then."
"Wow, okay, okay, I really envy you, Xiaoqi."
"Hey, apart from my grandparents, I have nothing for you to envy." Xia Qixi felt sour.
A few people quickly picked up a few baskets of jujubes, and as they walked forward, they discovered a large persimmon tree.
"Xiao Qi, can that be eaten?"
"It's edible, but we usually don't eat it because it's too small. My grandma made persimmons. I'll give them to you to try when I get home soon. They're better than those bought outside."
“I feel like living in the countryside is more interesting than living in the city.”
"People living in the countryside yearn to get out of the countryside, but people who have been wandering outside for too long want to come back. Maybe they are used to seeing the scenery outside, and everyone wants to return to their roots. When I get old, I will definitely go back
Come here to retire." Xia Qixi looked into the distance, not knowing what she was thinking.
She has lived here since she was born, and it feels more like home than her home in the city.
