Chapter 370 Weird
As soon as Wang Shan heard this, he slid down from the tree: "Okay, then I won't pick it, go to your side and pretend it! If it's not enough, I'll pick it again!" Since there are ready-made ones, then I won't pick them. so as not to cause waste.

Wang Shan, who grew up in a poor farming family, cherishes food very much and does not want to waste it.Even though the jujube grove might have been picked by someone tomorrow, he still didn't want to waste the ones already picked.

If you are here, you will definitely sigh: This is the simple nature of the working people!
A group of people returned with a full load.

A big basket is indeed a sweet burden for riches and nobles. Along the way, I don't know how many times I stopped.

Wang Shan couldn't help shaking his head secretly: This is still a red date. If it's a walnut, wouldn't such a big basket overwhelm him?Sure enough, this person must be a scholar, and a scholar who has never done physical work.

At this moment, it is not yet noon.

Wang Shan suggested: "After lunch, take a rest, let's come to the mountain again. Are you coming? If you come, I will let the children call you."

Fu Gui thought for a while and said, "Okay, thank you! When the time comes, I'll call Da Ni and her mother to go with her! How about you? Call Da Sister-in-law too? There are so many dates, I believe someone will find them tomorrow. "

Wang Shan nodded: "Well, that's right! I'll call the child's mother in the afternoon, and if we go tomorrow morning, I'll call my brothers to go with me!"

Fu Gui said gratefully: "Okay, go early tomorrow and bring your brothers with you!"

Seeing that he was out of breath, Wang Shan smiled and encouraged him: "Keep going, let's pick the jujubes tomorrow, and go to other places to pick walnuts! I know there is a hidden valley full of walnuts. Some people found it, enough for us to pick it for several days!"

Not many people know about this jujube forest.Because we have to go around a cliff, everyone is afraid.Actually, that cliff is bluffing, not dangerous at all.As long as you dare to take a closer look, you can find a path with verdant trees on the edge of the cliff.

That path was probably opened up by a person who lived in seclusion in the mountains many, many years ago.Wang Shan also suspected that the jujube forest was artificially planted, not wild.Otherwise, how could the distance between jujube trees be so neat and orderly?

However, when he discovered this jujube grove two years ago, there was no owner, so he could pick it with confidence.If there is a master, he will not be so bold.Having said that, this mountain has no owner, even if the owner of Zaolin is there, he would not dare to do anything to him.

When passing through the wasteland, Mrs. Li was still waiting there, waiting while opening up the wasteland.Daughter Xiaodie went back to cook first.

Seeing a group of people, Mrs. Li hurried up to greet her, took her husband's pannier distressedly, and scolded, "Why is it so full? You have never done physical work, can you take it?"

Fugui wiped off his sweat and forced a smile and said, "It's okay, my backpack is much smaller than Brother Wang's. Brother Wang not only carried a backpack, but also carried a cloth bag! My backpack is as big as a forest , he is still a 12-year-old child! Stop talking, it's a joke!"

Wang Lin smiled honestly and said: "Uncle Rao, I'm used to physical labor, you can't compare with me. Next time, you should memorize a little less, we have to go to the mountains for ten days and half a month! One time Carrying so much, I'm worried that you won't be able to hold on for a few days!"

Wang Shan also smiled and said: "Yes, my kid is right. Next time you memorize less. Add a little more every day. When you get used to memorizing and you can be carried by a big basket, we will talk about it at that time!"

Fu Gui smiled embarrassedly: "Thank you Lin Zi, thank you Brother Wang!"

Back home, Meizi quickly swept out a place in the courtyard, and shouted excitedly to her parents: "Father, mother, the sun is very good today, hurry up and pour the red dates here to dry!"

Mrs. Li took a breath and said with a gentle smile: "Understood, mother is here!"

The big and red jujubes fell on the ground and spread out gently. Under the sunlight, they seemed to glow golden.Meizi cracked her mouth, which was missing her front teeth, and smiled.

Xiaodie's eyes widened in disbelief: "Wow! This red date is big and red, I have never seen such a big red date before! Dad, I will also pick red dates this afternoon. If such a good red date is taken to the market It should sell for a lot of silver, right?"

Fu Gui: "Well, it should be able to sell for a good price! After lunch, take a short rest, and our family will go pick red dates!"

There are exactly six backpacks in my family. When I first bought the backpacks, I bought one for each person.Two big ones and four small ones.However, the two large back baskets are only medium-sized back baskets for other people's families.And a few small backpacks are actually used by children around five years old.

I remember that when I went to buy a backpack, the person who sold the backpack was very surprised, thinking that there were several very young children in his family.In rural areas, children over the age of eight are considered older children!It can help the family with a lot of work, and those who can do a little can be worth half of the labor force.

However, Fugui knew his family's situation. The children in the family used to be pampered, so they could only use such a small backpack for the time being.In fact, ten-year-old Rao Jin was exhausted when he went down the mountain with a small basket of red dates on his back.Let alone Rao An, who was eight years old, he was only half-carrying a basket, which made him out of breath.

Alas, it seems that my children still lack exercise!You know, Wang Ye, the six-year-old daughter of Wang Shan's family, has a basket as big as Rao Jin's, and it's full.When he came down the mountain, his breathing was very steady, but his face was a little flushed.

After lunch, everyone seized the time to rest for a quarter of an hour, and Wang Lin came over and shouted: "Uncle Rao, my father said to wait for you at the foot of the mountain, hurry up and go!"

He shouted from the gate of the courtyard.

Fugui quickly responded: "Alright, let's go now!"

The whole family was awakened, and hurriedly got up.Fortunately, no one took off their clothes to go to bed. They just need to cut their hair a little bit, wash their faces and go.

Wang Shan and his wife and children have already been waiting at the foot of the mountain. There are seven members of his family, including ten-year-old Wang He, eight-year-old Wang Qiao, his wife Lu Shi, six-year-old Wang Ye, and 12-year-old Wang Lin. All come.

Mrs. Lu warmly greeted Mrs. Li: "Sister, hurry up, or you will be bumped into by the villagers!"

Wang Shan explained: "When people from the village bump into them, they will follow us, and then we won't be able to pick so many!"

If the villagers don't find out, even if you bring other brothers to pick it tomorrow, you can still pick it for half a day.The reason why he is willing to bring the Rao family who has no friendship today is because he found that Rao Fugui is a very cultured person, and in the future, maybe his son can ask him about the things in the books; Those who have done physical work, even with them, can't carry many dates.

Unlike my brothers, sisters-in-law and nephews, each one is more capable than the other.If you bring a few brothers with you, you can pick all the dates in the jujube forest in one day.Moreover, several younger sisters-in-law have always been at odds with his own daughter-in-law, which disturbed the relationship between him and his brothers.Otherwise, why didn't he call his brother on the first day?

Walking on the road, Wang Shan looked at the baskets of Fugui's family and sighed: "Tomorrow, we will go up the mountain together to pick dates, and no one else will be called. Keep your mouth shut and don't tell others! No one else knows If it’s just us, we can pick it up for another two days!”

Forget it, just treat it as a good deed and do it to the end, and just help the people in Rao's family.Besides, if this jujube grove is known by a few brothers, next year he won't have any idea about this jujube grove.As for his second younger brother and daughter-in-law, she would definitely drag her brothers from her natal family to the jujube forest, and start guarding the dates a few days before they ripen.

Alas, it's hard to be a good person.

Fugui was a little hesitant: "Is it okay if I don't call your brothers?"

Wang Shan: "There's nothing wrong with it. They found a good place, and they never went to our family! Besides, if my second siblings know about that place, next year there will be no more of us in the jujube forest." It's time!"

After hearing his words, Fugui suddenly thought of his mother and Meng family who had no moral bottom line, and nodded clearly: "Alright, just listen to Brother Wang!" Keep your mouth shut, don't tell Zaozilin, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

Mrs. Li nodded quickly and said: "Don't worry, Xianggong, I will never say anything, no matter who it is, I won't say anything!"

The children also quickly expressed their views and ordered to make an oath.

Wang Lin nodded in relief, and said to his wife and children: "You should also be strict with your mouth, don't tell anyone, and don't tell your grandparents!"

"Yes, Dad, we know!" Several children of the Wang family also said in unison.

Wang Lin looked at his wife again: "You too, don't reveal it to your natal family! Otherwise, my brothers will find out and they will turn against me! Parents will also blame me! This matter, You should know the severity!"

The wife is fine with everything, but she is too nervous about her natal family.

Lu gave her husband a blank look, and said angrily: "I know, do you need me? I'm not a three-year-old child, so can I not know the seriousness of this matter?" Wang Shan was robbed by his wife, Can't help but blush.

The six-year-old daughter, Wang Ye, smiled and said, "Hahaha, Daddy is blushing! Daddy was scolded by mother!"

Everyone couldn't help laughing.Pleasant laughter pierced through the forest, startling many foraging birds.

When passing the secret path by the cliff, Mrs. Li couldn't help but be amazed: "This path is so secretive and wonderful, it can be attached to the cliff, and it exists like this! It's simply a wonderful workmanship, it's really amazing!"

Mrs. Lu laughed and said, "Yes, when I saw it for the first time last year, I was taken aback too! It's no wonder that no one in the village has noticed that jujube forest for so many years!"

The two families were cheerful, you said something, I said something, the scene was very lively.The boys went up to the tree to pick dates together, and the girls all picked dates below.Because no one knows whether this place will be discovered by other people tomorrow, so they always pick the big and red dates first.

The two families didn't go home until the sun was about to set, so as not to run into people in the village and arouse people's suspicion. It would be bad if they were followed the next day.Fortunately, the two families together have several laborers. Even if they encounter ferocious beasts, as long as all the people light torches and form a circle, those ferocious beasts will not dare to approach.

Therefore, Wang Shan told everyone: "Don't be afraid, when it's getting dark, light a torch and go down the mountain. There are so many of us, each with a torch, even if a wolf comes, don't worry too much!"

There are pine trees everywhere in this mountain, Wang Shan can use pine branches to make torches casually, and he is a hunter, so he is very familiar with this mountain.In spring, he dared to go down the mountain alone in the dark, let alone this season.
