Splendid Twins
Chapter 167 Fruit Mountain
Liu Niang realized something later, but she didn't ask. It was her experience that if she couldn't help, she shouldn't ask too much.
"Little girl, can I get you a small bamboo basket?"
Si Laoer had already taken out the bamboo baskets, and now everyone had one. Among them were several exquisite and beautiful small backpacks, which were obviously for children to play with.
Si Yao chuckled and said:
"Dad, you got it right."
Si Lao Er grinned:
"It would be a waste to leave the remaining bamboos lying around, so I just made a few."
As expected, Xiaoya and Hongying were attracted by these gadgets and each picked one to carry on their backs. Siyao also became playful:
"Let's go, let's achieve fruit freedom today."
Her barren mountain, no, it is not called a barren mountain now, because different trees were planted and the whole mountain is lush and green, it is renamed Fruit Mountain.
The first trees planted have already blossomed and borne fruit. The reason they grew so fast is that the seedlings came from the space system, and the survival rate is simply perfect.
Many of them have already borne fruit. Zhu Ci came to her some time ago to tell her about it and even picked a few for her to taste.
After Lu Zhaodi was captured, Zhu Ci was left without adult supervision. Si Yao wanted to train him, so she asked Wang Dahu to build a few wooden houses on the mountain. Zhu Ci lived directly on the mountain, and lived with the five men.
As soon as I reached the mountain pass, I saw Zhu Ci jogging over wearing a straw hat. Although he was quite tanned, he was full of energy, his eyes were bright, and he was also quite clever:
"Uncle, aunt, brother, sister, you are here."
Zhu Ci greeted everyone one by one. Si Lao Er and Liu Niang came here on weekdays, but Si Yao came less often. This was Si Qing's first time here, and his eyes were full of curiosity.
"so much?"
Looking around, this area is full of peach trees. The mountain is full of red peaches hanging on the branches, like pieces of burning flames, decorating the entire hillside warmly and brilliantly.
The breeze blows, the leaves rustle, and the fragrance of peaches makes people feel relaxed and happy.
Si Yao took a deep breath, it was full of peach flavor, fragrant and sweet, which made people feel very happy.
“It’s time to start picking peaches.”
"Okay, I'll pick the biggest peach for my sister to eat..."
"I've seen a big, red peach..."
Si Laoer led Xiaohuzi and Xiaoshitou in from the other end, while Liu Niang brought Hongying and Xiaoya. Si Qing was completely attracted by the beautiful scenery in front of him. Those ripe peaches were purple-red, plump and tempting, but he just gently stroked their skin, feeling the silky and delicate touch, but was not in a hurry to pick them.
Si Yao didn't care about that. She reached out and picked a peach, wiped it, and took a bite:
"It's very sweet, Zhu Ci, thank you for your hard work."
There were not only peach trees on the mountain, she also knew there were grapes, cherries, pears, apricots, and so on. Perhaps the saplings came from the space system and had their own spiritual energy, so they took root and sprouted as soon as they were planted in the soil.
Each tree grew lush and flourishing, and the fruits it produced were large and sweet, which naturally attracted many birds. People had to make some noise to drive them away.
"It's not hard for me, sister. The five of them do all the work, and I just talk."
Zhu Ci spoke with a smile on his face. He felt lucky to have met a noble person. When his parents were alive, he didn't have enough food to eat or warm clothes to wear. Now, no one cared about him and he had food, drink and money.
Si Yao took a bite of the peach and nodded. She saw how hard it was. Zhu Ci was still young, so he just needed to learn from her slowly. After all, she would not treat him unfairly.
"You come back with us today, take a good rest for a few days, and then we'll get busy again in a few days."
She wanted to try making some jam. She didn't have much business at the moment, and although she was not short of money, she was not too rich either.
"Where are Number One and the others?"
Zhu Ci quickly pointed to the distance:
"They are weeding over there, sister, do you want to go and take a look?"
"You play, I'll go take a look."
"Okay, then I'll go find Brother Xiaohu."
Si Yao was eating while walking. Not far away, she heard the laughter of Xiaoya and Hongying, accompanied by the exclamations of others. She then realized that there were several varieties of peaches in the peach forest, including honey peaches, yellow peaches, nectarines, hawkbill peaches, blood peaches, etc. She really had a good eye...
As expected of a space product, all are top-quality. For example, canned yellow peaches are a hot-selling product. When she was sick before, her master would buy a few bottles of canned yellow peaches. The color is golden and attractive. A light bite will release juice. It is sweet but not greasy, and it leaves a lasting aftertaste...
As I walked over, I saw No. 1 and five other people squatting under a fruit tree weeding. They were all sweating profusely. When they heard the noise, they looked up and saw that it was Si Yao. The five grown men came over with their waists slightly bent like young wives.
"How do you feel these days?"
Number One was the eldest brother, so he naturally understood what this meant. He took a few steps forward and said respectfully:
"Miss Si, to be honest, we know we were wrong, and thank you for giving us brothers a chance to survive."
"Miss Si, we were wrong."
The five grown men spoke at the same time. Si Yao took the last bite of the peach, threw away the core, and spoke nonchalantly:
"Sincerely?"
"Of course it's true. Now that I think about it, all those fighting and killings we had in the past were meaningless. Living an ordinary life is the real thing."
Number One said what was in his heart, he was tired of the life on the edge of a knife, and it was a natural scenery to lead his brothers to fight, but that was when they didn't meet an opponent. Now, when they met a tough guy like Miss Si, they used to be the big brothers, but now they are the little brothers who have to weed.
The other four people had always listened to Number One, and with Zhu Ci's brainwashing from time to time during these days, they felt that the days of working with their eyes open and sleeping with their eyes closed were good days.
Zhu Ci was afraid at first that he alone could not control these five big men, but after Si Yao and Wang Dahu demonstrated to him in person how to control them, he was no longer afraid.
If they don't listen, they will be fed poison. They won't die but they will be tortured. If they don't work, they won't have food to eat. After all the operations, no one disobeyed. Later, No. 1 behaved well and became a free man. The others followed suit. What's more, the six of them lived quite well together.
"I'll give you a chance. It depends on whether you can seize it."
"Also, it's a mess outside right now, if you have any thoughts, be careful..."
Si Yao told the five people about the situation in the capital. When they heard that Prince Li's Mansion was sealed, Number One couldn't help but panic. They were originally thugs under a minor steward in Prince Li's Mansion, and now that their real master was gone, they would be liquidated if they went out!
Thinking of this, No. 1 knelt down and acknowledged his master:
"Thank you for not disliking me, Number One is willing to serve you."
The four people behind also knelt down when they saw this. Naturally, they also thought about the consequences.
"I will register your household registration. From now on, you are mine. I don't care whether you are loyal or not. I only care about the results. If you don't do what I arranged, the consequences will be at your own risk."
