A family of three goes through the ages, not being a saint and not helping the poor
Chapter 54: Picking Peaches on the Mountain
At around five in the evening, Chu Yiling got off work and went home to see that Chu Anshan and Meng Qiuping had not returned yet. She left a note for them and went to the foot of the mountain to meet up with her friends.
"Lingling, we are here."
"Why do you all carry backpacks?"
"We found a few peach trees halfway up the mountain half a month ago. The peaches should be ripe in the next two days, so we plan to pick them and take them home today.
This is the small basket we brought for you. You can put the peaches you picked in this basket.
Actually, we wanted to give you a backpack at first, but grandma said you were too short to carry the backpack, so we changed it to a basket.
But don’t worry, we will share some of the peaches we picked with you later. We won’t let you take home just a small basket of peaches.”
It would be a lie for Chu Yiling to say she wasn't moved after hearing what Chu Dahe said. You have to know that in this era, food is life for most people.
Not to mention sharing food with people you’ve just met, many people may not even share with blood relatives.
So the three brothers of the Chu family really regarded her as a good friend from the bottom of their hearts, which made her feel a little guilty.
Because her purpose of making friends with the three brothers of the Chu family was not so simple at the beginning. She wanted to use their power to prevent the children in the village from bullying her.
Don't say she is utilitarian. Adults' thinking is so realistic. Even though she is now a six-year-old child, her soul is that of a real adult.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then said to Chu Dahe: "Thank you, Brother Dahe. If I find a wild fruit tree in the future, I will ask you to pick it together."
"Okay, let's set off now to pick peaches halfway up the mountain."
After seven or eight minutes, the three brothers of the Chu family pulled away the vines blocking the peach trees, and in an instant, three peach trees full of peaches appeared in front of them.
At this moment, they didn't have time to talk and quickly picked the peaches from the tree.
"Brother Dahe, my basket is full. I'll pour the peaches into your backpacks."
"Okay, the backpack is right there, just go over and empty it yourself."
When Chu Yiling heard Chu Dahe's words, she said "OK" and walked quickly towards the backpack with the basket in her hand.
After she poured all the peaches in the basket into her backpack, she planned to go back and continue picking peaches.
But before she could turn around, she saw a fat rabbit hit a tree and died. Only then did she remember that she had forgotten to say in her heart that she didn't want game.
Fortunately, the three brothers of the Chu family were so focused on picking peaches at the moment that they didn't notice the situation here at all.
So she quickly put the rabbit into the space.
As for sharing the rabbit with the three brothers of the Chu family, she had thought about it, but in the end she rejected it.
Because she had picked up a dead pheasant the last time she came to the mountain with them, if she picked up a dead rabbit again this time, it would inevitably make people think too much.
She would never put herself in danger, and she didn't necessarily have to repay the kindness of the three brothers of the Chu family to her with this rabbit.
Anyway, there is still a long way to go in the future, and she has plenty of opportunities to repay their kindness to her.
After thinking it over, she patted the rabbit fur on her hands, then went back with the basket to continue picking peaches.
They stopped only when they had plucked all the peaches on the peach tree, feeling unsatisfied.
Then they each pulled out a few handfuls of pig grass and covered the peaches with them, making sure that no one could tell that the backpacks and baskets were filled with peaches, before going down the mountain and going home.
