Chapter 177 Climbing the tree
Chapter 177 Climbing the tree
When I got home, the door was closed.
No one is home.
The same thing happened to Teng Yi's family, but as soon as Teng Yi got the key, he pushed his luggage into the house.
Su Jinjin, Cheng Guyu and Ling Yun could only stand in front of the iron gate outside the yard.
Su Jinjin's family and Teng Yi's family are very close, separated by a wall. Looking from outside the iron gate, you can see that the lychees planted by Teng Yi's family have reached Su Jinjin's family. The same is true outside the yard, and you can reach them with just a stretch of your hand.
Su Jinjin reached out and picked one, peeled it and ate it. It tasted quite sweet. She picked a few for Cheng Guyu and Ling Yun.
Ling Yun kept jumping to pick the fruit, but he was not tall enough. After Su Jinjin helped him pick it, he stopped jumping and happily took the fruit and started eating it.
Cheng Guyu didn't eat it, but held it in his hand. He looked around the house.
I thought to myself: Is this my hometown? Where my grandparents live.
very nice.
A large two-story flat with a yard surrounded by fruit trees and flowers.
He recognized that fruit tree.
It's a loquat tree.
There are many loquats on it, which are round and as big as half an egg, and are growing well.
Teng Yi sent his luggage into his home and then came out.
Looking at Su Jinjin who was still standing at the gate, he asked, "Have you called your uncle and aunt?"
Su Jinjin said: "I sent a message."
Teng Yiyi: "I feel like they won't be able to look at their phones right now."
"You'd better call. Otherwise, by the time they check their phones, it might be ages."
Su Jinjin thought about it and realized that was true.
The family runs a farm stay and a B&B, and they don't employ many employees, so Ms. Bai Mengyan probably doesn't have time to look at her phone.
The phone rang for a long time before Ms. Bai Mengyan picked up the phone.
"Hey, Susu, why did you suddenly think of calling me?"
Su Jinjin said: "Mom, I'm back."
"Huh? What did you say? Say it again." Bai Mengyan asked in disbelief.
"I'm back. I brought Guyu and Guyu's friends with me. I'm standing at the doorstep right now, but I can't get in. When will you be back?"
"Oh! I, eh, wait a minute. I'll go back and open the door for you." Bai Mengyan said happily.
"Old Su, Susu has brought our little baby Guyu back, and he's right at the doorstep now." Su Jinjin heard Bai Mengyan shouting to Su Beian.
Then I heard Comrade Su Beian's full-throated voice: "Is this true?"
"Of course it's true. I'm going back now, just watch this way."
"I want to go back too."
"You go back, then this side..."
"Let Xiao Zhou and Xiao Liu watch over it first. I'll go back to see Guyu and come back later."
"alright."
After the two elders finished discussing, they spoke to Su Jinjin on the phone and asked them to wait for ten minutes and they would be back soon.
It's already afternoon and the sun is still quite strong. There is no shade in front of my house and it's extremely hot outside.
Teng Yi asked them to go into her house first, push the box in the yard, and pull it back later. Now they go in and drink some water, and then they all go into Teng Yi's house.
Teng Yi went to the refrigerator to look for food, but found that there was nothing edible. There were only some vegetables and bottles and jars.
Maybe because there are no children at home, there is no food stored in the refrigerator.
There are a lot of fruits hanging on the trees in the yard.
In addition to lychees, the Teng Yi family also has peach trees and guava trees.
The branches of the trees are heavy with fruit.
Ling Yun sat in the house for a while, then pulled Cheng Guyu out and jumped into the yard to pick fruit.
Lingyun had only seen fruit from supermarkets, markets, or fruit shops before. This was the first time he saw fruit hanging on a tree, so he was very excited.
The branches of the guava tree are very low, and Lingyun can easily pull the branches and leaves and pick the fruits.
He picked two or three large fruits that he liked and put them in Cheng Guyu's arms.
Cheng Guyu held it with both hands.
The peach tree was quite tall and out of reach, so Lingyun touched the trunk and tried to climb up.
He walked around, supported the branch with his hands, and then jumped up like a little monkey, and soon jumped to the fork of the peach tree.
Cheng Guyu was shocked by his agile movements.
I didn't expect that this guy could climb trees.
After drinking the water, Su Jinjin came out to see Cheng Guyu and Ling Yun. When she saw Ling Yun staying on the tree, she almost spit out the half mouthful of water in her mouth.
WC.
Without even looking for a second, Lingyun was already up the tree.
Cheng Guyu has always been very well behaved, and Ling Yun has behaved very sensibly before. I almost forgot that children of this age are at the stage of being tough.
She swallowed the water in her mouth and quickly ran to the tree: "Lingyun! Come down! The tree is too high, it's dangerous."
Ling Yun stayed in the tree and looked at her and said, "No, I have a firm grip."
Su Jinjin: "No, if you fall down, you'll get hurt. You don't want to lose your limbs, do you?"
"Come down quickly. If you don't listen to me, I'll take you back."
"No, I'll come down. Don't send me back." Hearing that he would be sent home, Ling Yun quickly said that he wanted to come down.
He had just arrived, how could he just go back like this? This place looked interesting, with many things he hadn't seen before, so he had to stay.
On the way home, they passed some vegetable gardens full of various vegetables, especially the tomatoes he liked, which were bright red and looked like little lanterns.
I used to think tomatoes grew on trees, but I didn’t expect they grew on vines in the ground.
There are also eggplants, one tree can grow many, it's amazing.
Ling Yun slowly slid down the tree trunk, and Su Jinjin reached out to help him.
After coming down, Su Jinjin educated the two little guys and told them not to do anything dangerous.
Teng Yi stood at the door drinking water from a cup. After listening to the general situation and knowing what happened, he went home and took out a strange tool.
A long wooden stick with a plastic bottle tied to the top and a rope tied around the bottle.
Pull the string and the plastic bottle shrinks.
"If you want to pick fruit, you can use this." Teng Yi demonstrated with the tool in her hand.
Aim the plastic bottle at the fruit you want to pick, let the fruit fall into the plastic bottle, then pull the rope and pull the wooden stick to pick the fruit.
It is a simple version of the fruit picking tool.
After seeing it, Ling Yun liked it very much and immediately asked Teng Yi to let him play with the fruit picking tool.
As soon as Teng Yi handed it to him, he took Cheng Guyu to play.
While Ling Yun was playing, Teng Yi patted Su Jinjin on the shoulder and told her not to be so nervous about the child, as they had climbed trees a lot when they were young.
Su Jinjin glanced at her, seemed to want to say something but stopped herself, and still said nothing.
When Bai Mengyan and Su Beian came back, Ling Yun and Cheng Guyu had already picked a lot of fruits and piled them up in a small pile.
Teng Yi asked them to take all the fruits they picked back.
So, the first thing you do when you enter the house.
Just wash the fruit.
