Bai Shan handed all the fruit to Bai Erlang, rolled up his sleeves and said, "I'll pick it with you."
Bai Erlang also wanted to climb the tree, so he threw them all into the basket, found another tree and climbed up. He never picked the fruit not only to see if it was ripe, but to pick it directly when he saw Yamato pleasing to the eye.
So he picked it much faster than Bai Shan and Man Bao who were always comparing each other, and Ming Da handed him a new basket.
Bai Erlang himself couldn't tell whether the pears were ripe, let alone explain to him, seeing that Bai Erlang picked them so quickly, she even pointed out to him: "There are also over here."
Bai Erlang hung the basket on a branch, got into the leaves, saw the pears she was pointing at, and pulled them down with his hand. When he wanted to throw them back into the basket, he found that the leaves blocked him, so he went under the tree. Reach out, "Here you are."
After finishing speaking, he threw it towards Mingda.
Mingda couldn't help laughing happily, she reached out to catch it, hugged it into her arms and lost one, she picked it up and put it in her basket, and continued to point out to him cheerfully, "There are also here, there are two here." A very large…”
On the other side, Changyu kept bending down to pick up pears, and from time to time he could catch the pears thrown down by Man Bao and Bai Shan, and occasionally gave them directions, "There are also over here, here is a very big one..."
The three of them crawled back and forth on the tree, just like monkeys. Because of the big movements, the leaves on the tree rushed down. The guards and palace people stood silently watching, and saw several drops from the tree with sharp eyes. A loose fruit.
I expressed sympathy for these wild pear trees in my heart.
The five people worked together to toss the three pear trees very hard, and then picked four baskets full. Bai Shan and Man Bao jumped down from the tree and saw Bai Erlang picked two baskets by himself. The fruit in Mingda's basket asked, "Can this be eaten?"
Bai Erlang said confidently: "Anyway, it's all sour, you can eat it as soon as you close your eyes, what can't you eat?"
Bai Shan and Man Bao thought he was right.
Changyu came forward carrying her basket, and said with a troubled expression, "It's sour."
Mingda said happily: "Don't care if it's sour or sweet, anyway, I just had fun just now."
Chang Yu thought about it, and said, "Then let's go pick that sweet red fruit, Man Bao, what's it called?"
"Prickly bubbles," Man Bao said, "I know where there are many, let's go."
Man Bao took them down the mountain from the other side, and when they got down to the bottom of the mountain, they saw a bunch of thorny hooks connected together, with red dots dotted with many red fruits.
Man Bao stepped forward and saw a big one, so he reached out and picked it off, looked at it, and handed it to Chang Yu after making sure there were no bugs, Chang Yu put it in his mouth before the maids stopped him in time.
Then her eyes brightened, she nodded repeatedly and said, "It's really sweet."
It's not too sweet, but picking and eating it like this is a wild fruit that she has never eaten before. Even if it is only three points sweet, she can make her eat eight points sweet.
Mingda also carefully avoided the stones and blocks on the ground and stepped forward, seeing so many red fruits in front of him, he didn't know which one to pick for a moment.
Bai Erlang had already reached out to pick several, and seeing that she didn't know what to do, he directed her and said, "You can pick the ones that look intact. When you pick them, you can pick them. If they are hard, they must be good. If they are soft, they can be picked." , you can see if it’s broken, if it’s not bad, it must be sweet.”
This is the superficial experience he has accumulated over the years. Although it is not very accurate, it is also accurate to six points, so he thinks it is still very accurate.
Mingda nodded, and picked up the thorns under his guidance, but he didn't know where to put it if he picked too many.
The palace maid quickly took the purse and went forward to pack it for her. Mingda took it, but couldn't help but turned to look at Man Bao and the others.
Bai Shan casually picked two big leaves from the other side, gave one to Man Bao, and took one to put the fruit in.
She turned her head to look at Bai Erlang, and saw that he was holding it in his hands. If he had picked too many, he would pick a few red and big ones and eat them. If there were fewer red fruits in his hands, he continued to pick them.
Mingda: ...
Changyu didn't care about these things, he just picked them up and turned around to give them to the maids and servants, and occasionally stuffed a few into his mouth, eating with relish.
The five people picked all the red fruits, leaving only a few sporadic ones unpicked.
Especially the ones in the middle, they looked red and bright, but they didn't pick them, not because they didn't want to, but because they were helpless.
If you want to go in, you will definitely get hooked on your clothes, Man Bao said: "You should come in coarse clothes, so you won't be afraid of being hooked."
Although the clothes they are wearing now are not particularly good, they are also fine and expensive. Not only Man Bao, Bai Shan and Bai Erlang are reluctant to scratch the clothes.
The five of them were tired, so they found a tree and sat down, sharing the thorn bubbles they picked while looking at the fields below the mountain and chatting.
The majestic wind blew away a lot of hot air, Mingda exhaled, and couldn't help taking a deep breath, only feeling comfortable in the lungs and heart, and didn't even feel the slightest attack of shortness of breath.
You know, when going out, what she is most afraid of is the invisible dust and flying catkins outside. When she takes a deep breath, she always feels itchy nose and tightness in her chest.
Ming Da reached out and touched the bracelet on his wrist, turned his head and smiled at Man Bao, and asked, "Why is the red fruit called thorn bubble?"
Man Bao scratched his head, "Because there are thorns on the vine, the red fruit looks like bubbles growing on it?"
Bai Shan laughed loudly when he heard the words, "That's not wrong, I heard people say it's also called a hook."
Speaking of aliases, who is more familiar than Man Bao
Her encyclopedia contains all the names of this thing that have been recorded. She snapped her fingers and read: "Also called raspberry, raspberry, raspberry, raspberry, wild berry, raspberry, black currant..."
Bai Shan turned his head and ignored her.
Changyu was dumbfounded when he heard that, "How do you know so many names?"
Bai Erlang said: "Otherwise, do you think those flowers and plants died for nothing? She liked digging grass and catching bugs since she was a child. She studied it after she got it. Whether it was a male or a female, she would have to look at it. Not much?"
Chang Yu shuddered when he heard this, and silently moved a little away from Man Bao.
When Man Bao saw her, he sat down, sat next to her, stretched out his hand and said: "My hand has not only touched flowers, plants, trees, insects, fish, birds and animals, but also people."
"From the head, hands, and feet on the outside, to the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys on the inside, I have touched them all."
Chang Yu was so frightened that he pushed her away, jumped up and moved away from her, "Zhou Man, you're scaring me."
Man Bao laughed loudly, and said cheerfully, "You're only afraid now when you think about it, are you stupid?"
"You're stupid, you, you," Changyu pondered for a while but couldn't come up with a good word, so he could only call out: "You are not allowed to say these things again, and you, Bai Cheng, if you scare me again, I will take it You kick it down the hill."
