Chapter 320: Almost Caught
Ye Yaodong dumped all the plums he held in his coat into the sack containing bamboo shoots. The small size rolled directly through the gaps of the bamboo shoots to the bottom of the sack.
He shook his coat, put it on, and then hurriedly went to find the two stinky little ones.
This time he didn't shout for people all over the mountain, just returned along the original path.
After seeing which small path they drilled into earlier, he walked into that path after walking to the place where they separated.
Walked about five or six meters, and he saw the loquat tree, but didn't see the figures of the two little ones, could only continue forward.
Walked past 3 loquat trees, turned and went in, only then did he see one of the two little ones receiving at the bottom, and one picking on top.
On the position where the clothes were spread out on the ground, a small pile of loquats had already been piled up.
"Cousin, over there, over there... there are many over there, very yellow... come more..."
"You speak softly..."
"No one, what does it matter..."
"Cough cough~"
Just at this moment, Ye Yaodong coughed twice.
"Ah!!!"
Lin Guangyuan was so scared by the movement that he almost couldn't stand firm. Fortunately, he only panicked for a moment, and his hands still tightly grabbed the tree branch, so he didn't fall from the tree.
And Ye Chenghu ran away as soon as he heard the movement, without even looking back...
Leaving his good cousin behind...
Guilty conscience wow~
"Damn Little Uncle-in-law, you scared me to death, walking without sound, and deliberately coughing. Damn Ye Chenghu, roll back here!"
Ye Yaodong also shouted with a black face: "What are you running for? Come back!"
"Ah?"
Ye Chenghu's figure, which had already run far away, stopped again, turned his head. "Damn, Father, scaring people to death..."
After discovering it was his own people, Ye Chenghu ran back again.
"Damn Ye Chenghu, you ran faster than a rabbit, this is wanting to leave me behind as a cushion!"
Ye Chenghu touched the back of his head, embarrassed. "Isn't this afraid of being caught? Hehe, who told you to react slowly?"
"Damn, looks like you haven't been on the mountain less! Ran away as soon as you saw..."
"All blame my father! Deliberately scaring people."
"Where did you learn the rough language, one by one, every day damn, damn, damn hanging on your lips, more fluent than me." Ye Yaodong frowned and looked at the two.
He hung it on his lips like a catchphrase, doesn't mean he could listen to the two children using it as a catchphrase.
Ye Chenghu said innocently: "I only said one damn, learned from you, Father."
"Little Uncle-in-law, don't change the subject! Actually deliberately scared us, but this test also knows Ye Chenghu is too unreliable, damn..."
"You are the one changing the subject. Alright, that's about it, don't pick anymore, I'll take you to pick wild peaches..."
"Who is there?"
Damn!
The three were really shocked this time, Ye Chenghu ran away as usual...
Lin Guangyuan also jumped down from the tree and hurriedly followed...
Ye Yaodong saw that both of their reactions were so fast, and didn't want the loquats on the ground. After cursing in his heart, he hurriedly wrapped the clothes on the ground, carried them, and followed.
The person behind kept shouting there, "Who is there stealing? If caught, will beat to death..."
"Don't run... I saw you..."
"Stop, damn, whose little rabbit..."
The two little rabbits ran faster and faster, walking on flat ground on the mountain, drilling here and jumping there. Ye Yaodong was almost thrown off behind, feeling that he was a bit useless...
"You run slower, wait for me..."
"Can't, Little Uncle-in-law, hurry~ if caught, it will be embarrassing..."
It is indeed embarrassing to be caught. He was such a big person, listening to the scolding behind him from afar, he could only continue to drill around with them.
Not long after, Ye Yaodong was already covered in sweat. Feeling that there was no movement behind, he stopped to catch his breath.
"Alright, don't need to run anymore, didn't chase. Almost harmed by you two, my lifetime reputation is about to be ruined by you!"
The two stopped one after another.
"You are not dead yet, where did the lifetime reputation come from?"
Ye Yaodong knocked Lin Guangyuan's head. "Can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth, if you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute."
"Hehe~"
"Father, you actually brought the loquats!"
"Otherwise? Picked for so long, not bringing them is picking them in vain? One by one ran faster than rabbits, didn't even want the things..."
"Isn't this afraid of being caught?"
"Let's go, return first, your grandfather is still cutting trees, don't know if he finished cutting?"
"Still want to pick wild peaches?" Lin Guangyuan was still thinking about it.
"Aren't these enough for you to eat?"
"Different, loquats are loquats, plums are plums, peaches are peaches!"
"Afraid of not having any to eat when you go home in a few days? Let's go..."
Ye Yaodong identified the direction and took the two back to the main road.
When they were about to pass the intersection of the loquat tree just now, the three ran involuntarily, and could still hear faint scolding in their ears.
"Fortunately not caught!"
"See if you dare next time?"
"You told us to steal, if caught, I will betray you!" Lin Guangyuan said with a wicked smile.
Ye Yaodong raised his hand and wanted to give him a chestnut, but was dodged by him twisting his body with quick eyes and hands, and then he shouted, "Someone is stealing loquats..."
Shouting while pulling Ye Chenghu, running away quickly...
"Damn, you damn Lin Guangyuan, if I catch you, beat your butt rotten..."
Ye Yaodong hurriedly chased after him in a flurry.
Ye Chenghu also scolded while running, didn't call cousin anymore, "Lin Guangyuan, you are too absolute, right?"
The three ran back to Ye Father one after another, all sitting on the ground panting, gasping for air.
Ye Father just cut down the tree and was bundling the last bundle of tree branches, looking at the three in confusion. "Why are you running like this?"
"We were almost caught when picking loquats, fortunately ran fast."
Ye Father shook his head helplessly. "Don't do this kind of thing next time, people will scold you to death behind your back."
"Father told us to go."
Ye Yaodong stood up and glanced at them, then walked to the sack, opened the package in his hand, and slowly dumped the loquats in.
Ye Father also carried the two bundles of firewood on his back. "Alright, almost mealtime, go back first, come up to cut some more in the afternoon."
The two little ones had no opinion. Worked for a whole morning, ran a big circle, that bowl of porridge in the morning had long been digested, even urine didn't have, all converted into sweat. Both were sweating profusely, and their faces were red.
Ye Yaodong first carried a sack of bamboo shoots and fruit, the remaining tree branches and trees would be carried up a few more times later.
The two little ones were empty-handed, had already taken a step ahead and disappeared.
Only when they reached the foot of the mountain did they see them waiting on the side of the road. "Father, you hurry, let's take the fruit home first?"
"Only know how to eat!"
Ye Father also said: "You carry it back first, by the way send them both back, then push a cart over."
"Fine."
The two little ones excitedly jumped and led the way in front.
Before running to the door, they shouted loudly while running from more than ten meters away: "We are back~ we pulled a lot of bamboo shoots~"
Ye Chenghai and the others had also returned from school, eating in the room. Hearing the shouting outside, he immediately ran out with his rice bowl.
"You also pulled bamboo shoots? Father and Second Uncle went up the mountain early in the morning, didn't bring anything back, only tree branches!"
"Ye Chenghai! Bring the rice back to eat..."
"Oh~ coming, coming~"
Responding in his mouth, he also stretched his head and looked at the sack twice. After seeing plums and loquats inside, his eyes shone.
"Ah, wow, there are loquats and plums..."
"Ye Chenghai!"
Ye Eldest Sister-in-law, who was eating in the room, was half-dead with anger. Her son was born to anger her!
"Coming, coming~" After responding, he said again, "Leave some for me..."
After saying the key words, he carried the rice bowl back to the room, quickly shoveled, accompanied by his mother's scolding, to go with the rice!
"Ye Chenghai, why is your skin so thick?"
Ye Chenghai turned a deaf ear, finished eating, and hurriedly ran to the next door, other children also put down bowls and chopsticks, wiped their mouths, and followed.
Ye Yaodong and Ye Father pushed a cart of firewood back, only to see a pile of child laborers working hard to peel bamboo shoots at the door.
"So diligent?"
"Because only after peeling can we eat loquats and plums! Grandmother said..." everyone said in a jumble.
"Work hard!"
Ye Chenghai had a restless heart. "Third Uncle, are you going in the afternoon?"
"Going, do you want to ask for half a day off to go up the mountain with me to cut firewood? Very fun, we are going to pick wild peaches in the afternoon..." Ye Yaodong's voice was deliberately full of temptation.
Ye Mother just came out of the room after washing the bowls and heard this, saying unhappily: "Still not going to wash hands and eat, still here tempting them, teaching them bad things all day long, inciting them every day..."
"Sigh~ I have to go to school!"
"That's a pity..."
The old lady smiled and knocked him on the back with a bamboo shoot. "You say it again, he won't go to study in the afternoon, and will have to be beaten again, you hurry and eat."
Ye Yaodong grinned and went into the room, but heard Lin Guangyuan behind him start to tempt.
"Too pity, we picked plums, picked loquats in the morning, not to mention how fun..."
"And pulling bamboo shoots, so many bamboo shoots, we couldn't pull them all, going in the afternoon..." Ye Chenghu added.
"Really?"
A group of children looked at them with envy...
Ye Yaodong was busy for a whole morning, also hungry, eating in large mouthfuls. The squid braised last night soaked for a whole night, especially flavorful.
Squid must be braised, more fragrant than stir-frying, and blanching.
He finished eating, collected the hard bone on it, and also collected the hard bone on Ye Father's table.
The only white bone on the squid's whole body has buoyancy and can be used as a toy.
This bone is light and rough, like a miniature sailboat model. Put a small hole on the bone and insert a small triangular sail, and it's a small boat, can be played in the water.
In this era, there are few toys, children can play with anything.
