[But my own carriage can't help me cover now. What should I do? Do I still have to go in and work overtime at night? Oh! ON ON ON] She kept shaking her head just thinking about it.

"Sister Xiaoxiao, what are you doing? Why are you shaking your head all the time? Is there something on your mind?" The one who asked this question was the maid Cui'er.

Since fleeing the famine, Liu Xiaoxiao rarely played with Cui'er. On the one hand, she wanted her to spend more time with her family. On the other hand, it was inconvenient for Cui'er to know her space, so she had to reduce contact.

Now looking at the little girl who was looking at her with worry, she comforted her: "Don't worry, Xiao Cuicui, I'm fine."

Wang Cuier saw that the young lady didn't want to talk to her any more, so she stopped asking. But she thought that since she was unhappy, she would be happy if she took her out to play.

Thinking of this, she invited: "Wait a minute, my father and the others are going out to find water, do you want to go with us?"

"Forget it! I don't have any experience in finding water, so I can't help much if I go." Liu Xiaoxiao refused.

Cui Er said unwillingly, "But we can go to the nearby mountains to relax! I'm almost becoming a walking tool after traveling so much every day."

Liu Xiaoxiao found it funny to see her pouting and complaining, and said, "Travel tools! I see you just want to go play in the mountains!"

Cui Er replied embarrassedly, "No, I just wanted to go to the mountains to see if I could find some delicious food there like last time."

Thinking about the last time they had to stay in the mountains because of the rain, they were able to find so much wild food, which allowed them to persevere and walk until now.

Liu Xiaoxiao thought: Why not accept Cui'er's suggestion and go for a walk in the mountains? Who knows, maybe she can have some adventures?

She did what she said. After saying hello to her mother, she and Cui'er followed Wang Feng and his water-finding team into the mountains.

"Sister Xiaoxiao, come quickly!"

"Come and see what kind of tree this is."

"Can you eat the fruit from this tree?"

Soon after entering the mountain, Cui'er started shouting and screaming.

Wang Feng could only shake his head helplessly when he saw this, and said to Liu Xiaoxiao: "That's just her temper, don't bother her."

Of course Liu Xiaoxiao would not really ignore it, but Cui'er's playful nature along the way was really hindering Wang Feng and the others' work.

So after Wang Feng finished speaking, she said, "I think she likes this place very much. How about it? Uncle Feng, you guys go and do your own things first. Cui'er and I will play here for a while and then go back."

Wang Feng asked worriedly, "Do you know the way back? Why don't you wait here for us to come back and then go back together?"

Liu Xiaoxiao said, "No, it's just two steps away, we won't get lost."

Wang Feng turned around and found that as long as he stood on a wider and higher ground, he could see the people below. After telling them to be careful, he followed the team.

Seeing that the adults had left, Liu Xiaoxiao and Cui'er completely let themselves go.

Wang Cui immediately pulled Liu Xiaoxiao to the place where she found the fruit.

"Sister Xiaoxiao, look, this is the tree I just called you to come and see. Do you think the fruits on this tree are edible?" Cui'er had just finished speaking when she reached out and picked the lowest fruit on the tree. She rubbed it casually on her clothes and prepared to put it in her mouth to taste it.

However, Liu Xiaoxiao, who was standing next to her, seemed to be frozen when she saw the tree. She didn't notice Wang Cui's actions at all, so she naturally didn't stop her.

Finally, when Wang Cui spitted repeatedly beside her, she woke up.

"Ah! Pah, pah, pah, what is this! Why is it so disgusting? Sister Xiaoxiao, don't even look at it. This fruit can't be eaten. It's very bitter, just like tree bark."

Liu Xiaoxiao looked at the bitten fruit in her hand and laughed, "Ahahahaha! You're eating the skin. It's strange that the skin can be delicious. Ahahahahaha!..."
