I Was Called a Poor Widow, But I Relied on My Supernatural Powers To Fight Back In Ancient Times

Chapter 199 The thorny ball is the chestnut

“Mom, don’t worry, I’ll go pick it with you later.”

As Li was speaking, he saw a few burrs mixed in the fungus.

“Mom, why did you pick up a few burr fruits? It’s a bit awkward to use them as firewood. Our family doesn’t usually use this for firewood.”

 The main reason is that it is too troublesome, and you have to use a shovel to push it into the stove. If you are not careful, you will **** your hand.

Bai Yunxi looked at her in surprise, "Are you using this as firewood?"

“That’s not the case. The main reason is that this thing is very annoying and most people are not willing to touch it.”

Baiyunxi is a little speechless, that is to say, no one found that the food inside is edible?

To be honest, Baiyun Xi really didn't believe it, so he confirmed again, "You really don't know that the food in here is edible?"

Hearing her mother-in-law's tone, Ms. Li was stunned for a moment, "What are you going to eat? How can you eat something with so many thorns?"

While talking, even Bai Anyan and the others gathered around. Bai Yunxi looked at their doubtful eyes, carefully took out a thorn ball and put it on the ground, stepped on it with his foot, and with a click, a few rolled out of it. Brown fruit.

Crush the fruit open with a stone to reveal the fruit inside. "Here, try it. It's a bit crispy and sweet when eaten raw. It doesn't taste very good, but when it's cooked, it tastes better than sweet potatoes."

A few people listened to their mother's explanation and looked at a few chestnuts rolling down on the ground in disbelief. They had seen this thing before, and everyone in the village was familiar with it, but no one had eaten it.

Looking at the expressions of several people, Bai Yunxi finally understood. Because this kind of thing is wrapped in two layers of hard shell, especially the outer layer of burrs, there is no place to start.

 No one wanted to touch it, so they didn’t realize that the fruit inside was edible.

 To put it bluntly, no one has opened it at all.

Thinking of this, Bai Yunxi felt a little dumbfounded. Is this an unexpected surprise for her?

“This kind of thing is a hairy chestnut, also called a chestnut. In addition to the burrs on the outside, there is also a hard shell inside, but the fruit hidden inside the hard shell is very delicious.”

Baiyunxi narrated it to his sons, and at the same time, he broke it open with a stone and let them taste it for themselves.

“This thing can be used not only as a staple food but also as a snack. You can peel it back and boil it with salt. You can try it. It’s very delicious.”

A few people tasted it carefully, and before anyone else could say anything, Mrs. Li couldn't wait to express her position, "Mom, I will pick it with you now. Before others know, let's pick it home quickly and peel it slowly to save money." It was robbed by everyone.”

Looking at Li's eager look, Bai Yunxi couldn't help but laugh.

 “There’s no rush, let’s wait for your sister-in-law to bring the rice, and then we’ll go pick it together after we’ve eaten.”

As he was talking, he saw Mrs. Du carrying a pole, followed by Yaya, and at Yaya's feet, followed by the dog Ruanruan.

 “Grandma, it’s time to eat.”

Yaya ran over happily. After a period of maintenance, the little girl's face finally had flesh, and her hair was much thicker than before.

 “Ouch, you’re so good, run slowly and be careful not to get bumped.”

Baiyunxi went up to her, held her in her arms, pinched her little face, and her heart softened when she saw the little girl smiling.

At this time, she specially asked Yaya to stay with Du Shi so that the mother and daughter could rekindle their relationship.

Du Shi also realized that she owed Yaya, so she combed her hair and braided her hair every day and talked with her.

YaYa also changed from her resistance at the beginning to her current habit. In the past two days, after washing her face every morning, she took a comb and ran to her mother to comb her hair.
