Fang Tong raised his eyelids and said with a half-smile: "Oh, how many chestnuts do you want to share?"
"At least, give us a bag." Meeting his uncle's gaze, Fang Zetian's heart skipped a beat. He was overwhelmed with emotion just now, and now he felt scared, so his voice became a little softer.
Fang Tong didn't say anything, but just started moving his wrists.
The Fang Qingtian brothers realized something was wrong and wanted to retreat, but Qin Yan came over at some point and blocked their way.
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
Fang Tong didn't hold back and slapped each of them in the face. "How dare you, you little bastards? I'm your uncle. Doing some work for me is a way for you to show your filial respect. It's your blessing!"
The brothers' faces quickly swelled up. They covered their faces and said nothing, but they were obviously not convinced.
No matter who they are filial to, it’s never Uncle San’s turn, a loser who married into his wife’s family!
"Besides, don't forget why you come to work for me?" Fang Tong sneered.
Why? Because you're being unreasonable! The brothers thought to themselves.
"Because your father is a loser, I have the evidence against him, so I have to push you to take the blame." Fang Tong bluntly exposed the truth.
In the entire Fang family, everyone has to revolve around Fang Jin.
From the elderly couple to the grandchildren, everyone has to protect the eldest brother in everything they do. It can be said that the whole family is praising the eldest brother.
But why?
He was not convinced before, but now, Fang Tong sneered at his two nephews. The two brothers were so cunning and were growing up. How could they have no ideas at all?
The Fang Qingtian brothers paused for a moment, feeling unconvinced. It was clearly not them who had offended their third uncle, so why did they have to work and get beaten?
"Think clearly about your situation. Is this chestnut something you can even think about?" Fang Tong looked down at them.
Without saying anything else, when it comes to sowing discord, it's better to go too far and take it slow.
Brother Fang Qingtian swallowed his saliva. Both of them were in complicated moods, angry, aggrieved, furious and afraid.
The two men put down the sack of chestnuts in silence and walked out with their heads down.
Fang Nanzhi looked thoughtful. What did Dad mean by that? It was so strange.
Qin Yan touched the little girl's head and didn't stop her from learning these things.
People with a kind heart are never easily bullied.
In the kitchen, Qian Fengping had just finished making lunch and came out. She didn't see what had just happened. She just looked at the three large sacks on the ground and asked, "What are these?"
When they got closer, they could see clearly that they were the thorny balls on the mountain. They asked curiously, "Why did you two bring so many of these back?"
You can't be bringing it back to use as fuel.
"This thing is called chestnut." Fang Tong explained to her: "Peel off the outer layer of skin, roast the inside, and then peel it. It's edible and very fragrant."
"This thing can actually be eaten?"
Qian Fengping was surprised and then delighted: "Let's try it quickly. The fire in the kitchen is still on. Can we just throw the shells in and roast them?"
"No, no." Fang Nanzhi hurriedly shook his head: "We have to cut a hole with a knife, otherwise it will explode with a bang!"
The little girl raised her arms exaggeratedly as she spoke, "It can explode this high!"
She didn't understand it when she was baking it before, but it was the system brother who told her that she had to make a cut.
Qian Fengping was amused when she saw this: "Is that so? Auntie knows."
Fang Yin in the room also heard that it was edible and clapped his hands happily: "Roasted chestnuts, roasted chestnuts!"
"Okay, okay!" Fang Tong coaxed his second brother.
Before roasting, we have to peel off the outermost thorny shell. The whole family did it with the help of some tools. We were a little unfamiliar with it at first, but after peeling a few and getting the hang of it, we became faster and soon filled a large bowl with chestnuts.
"Zhizhi, you come and carve the chestnuts?" Qian Fengping arranged.
It mainly depends on the little girl peeling the shell. She has little strength and was stabbed several times.
Fang Nanzhi looked up blankly: "Me?"
Qian Fengping added, "Zhizhi is the most meticulous person in the family. Auntie will feel at ease if I leave this job to you."
"Okay!" Fang Nanzhi felt a great sense of responsibility after hearing this. He patted his chest vigorously and said, "Leave this job to me, don't worry!"
"Okay, then you have to go slowly and don't scratch yourself." Qian Fengping instructed.
Fang Nanzhi responded obediently, holding a chestnut in one hand and a small dagger in the other, and cut a line on a relatively flat place.
Do the same with the rest and cut them open one by one.
The split chestnuts had been put into the stove to roast in advance. Fang Nanzhi took a small branch and picked out the chestnuts.
The kitchen was filled with the aroma of chestnuts.
Fang Yin was excited. This smelled delicious!
The roasted chestnuts were open, and although they were covered with dust, the golden flesh inside was still visible, making you salivate.
Fang Tong picked up one, pinched both ends and applied force, and the crack opened wider, making it much easier to take out the meat.
He took the chestnut meat and handed it to Qian Fengping with a smile: "Try it."
Qian Fengping's eyes were full of curiosity. Just as she was about to take it, she saw Fang Tong's black hands and immediately stopped. She was not polite to him at all: "You haven't even washed your hands. I won't eat it."
Looking again, Fang Nanzhi's hands were also black.
"You two should wash your hands before eating!"
The two were sent to wash their hands. As for the chestnut that Fang Tong had dug out, Qian Fengping washed it and broke it into three pieces, one for herself and the other two to Qin Yan and Fang Yin.
The chestnuts are soft, sweet and have a light chestnut aroma that makes you linger in the aftertaste.
When the father and daughter came back, Fang Yin was already holding a small bowl of chestnut meat and eating it with relish. It was all because Qian Fengping and her son took care of him and peeled it for him first.
"Come and eat." Qian Fengping waved, then smiled happily and said, "The meal is ready. After dinner, let's go pick some more!"
These chestnut trees are very common in the mountains. They didn’t know they were edible before, and they tasted so good. Now that they have discovered them first, they must pick more!
Fang Tong sighed leisurely: "No rush, let's go in the afternoon."
"My two nephews also saw the chestnuts this time. I guess the whole village will know about it soon."
So if you can't seize the initiative, just follow the crowd.
Qian Fengping suddenly felt a little regretful: "That's such a pity."
Otherwise, you can get some benefits for your family just like the yam last time.
But the whole family was content. After a brief moment of regret, they happily started eating again. No matter what, it was a good thing to bring so much food home today.
After a short rest after lunch, Fang Tong took his daughter up the mountain in the afternoon.
The two had just reached the foot of the mountain when they saw a lot of people on the road one after another.
Fang Tong had a vague idea in his mind.
The further up the mountain you go, the more people there are!
In the woods, there was a constant noise and the sound of chestnuts being beaten.
Many families go out with their whole families. Usually the men in the family climb up the tree with long sticks to hit the chestnuts. The chestnuts fall down with a clatter, and the whole family rushes to pick them up.
