Chapter 325 Surprising Harvest
Chapter 325 Surprising Harvest
"Brother, this place is too far from the grove where we live now. Otherwise, we could use the weeds and peanut vines we dug up to feed our mules and donkeys."
Second Brother Yun looked at the piles of weeds with regret.
Yun Yiyi also felt it was a bit of a pity.
"Second brother, there's nothing we can do about this. It's really too far, so it's not worth the effort to transport all these weeds back."
"Brother is right. Weeds are everywhere. I don't think it's necessary for us to go through the trouble of carrying them back."
"Big brother, second brother, third brother, you guys better hurry up and dig some peanuts. I'm almost catching up with you."
At Yun Yiyi's urging, the three brothers of the Yun family stopped chatting and started digging the ground faster.
Yun Yiyi followed everyone, picking peanuts skillfully.
It was indeed a little late, most of the peanuts had fallen into the ground, and there were hardly any peanuts on the peanut vines.
Fortunately, Brother Yun and his men were digging one after another like they were digging the ground, and they turned out all the peanuts that had fallen on the ground.
Yun Yiyi only needed to pick up the peanuts on the ground, saving her the trouble of picking the peanuts off the peanut vines.
The three brothers of the Yun family were strong and the soil was soft, so they spent more than an hour to turn over the entire peanut field.
"Brother, this land is really fertile. The harvested peanuts have filled two and a half baskets."
"The key is that the peanuts are quite large. There are very few small peanuts that are not fully grown. This yield is almost catching up with the yield of peanuts we grow ourselves."
Brother Yun looked at the peanuts with a smile on his face. "Second brother, the ground below is full of fallen leaves from the nearby forest."
"Over time, the leaves rot and become fertilizer. That's why it feels easy to dig peanuts."
"If it were somewhere else on the mountain, the peanuts might not grow so well."
Second Brother Yun nodded in agreement.
"Brother, I miss the fried peanuts that mom made. Of course, I also like boiled peanuts."
When Brother Yun San saw so many peanuts, his mind was full of how to eat them.
Yun Yiyi felt that Third Brother Yun really lived up to his reputation as a foodie.
"Third brother, based on what we have gained today, I think mother should be able to fulfill your wish."
Brother Yun San laughed out loud after hearing this.
Both Big Brother Yun and Second Brother Yun shook their heads helplessly.
At this moment, they were all picking peanuts carefully in the field, trying not to miss a single one.
After more than ten minutes, everyone picked up all the peanuts in the field and put them in the baskets.
Brother Yun picked up the two baskets filled with peanuts and he knew what was going on.
"Brother, how many thousand kilograms of peanuts do you think we harvested?"
Brother Yun San asked anxiously.
Second Brother Yun and Yun Yiyi also looked at First Brother Yun anxiously.
Brother Yun didn't keep the secret, "I weighed them, and the two baskets of peanuts probably weigh more than 60 kilograms."
"Wow, that's too many." Brother Yun shouted.
Yun Erge and Yun Yiyi also looked surprised. Although they also knew that there were many peanuts.
However, in the whole family, Brother Yun is the most sensitive to weight. He said it was more than 60 kilograms, so it must be these.
This output is indeed almost catching up with the harvest from the peanut fields that I carefully tend at home.
Besides, these are peanuts dug from the mountains. They grow on their own, so there is no need to worry about them, just harvest them.
"Okay, don't be happy yet, it's already past noon. We have to hurry up and pack up and get ready to go home."
"As usual, cover the basket with the weeds we dug out. Third brother, you carry your empty basket."
"The second brother and I will carry the baskets of peanuts. Yiyi, you carry the stick and lead the way."
"Let's load up the wild celery and go home for dinner. I've been busy all morning and I'm starving."
"Brother, I'm hungry too." Brother Yun San said pitifully, holding his stomach.
"So, big brother asked you to carry the basket."
"That's right, I'm carrying an empty basket now." Brother Yun San reacted belatedly.
Yun Yiyi looked at Third Brother Yun and always felt that he was stupid because of hunger. Anyway, he didn't look very smart.
Brother Yun and Brother Yun quickly put weeds on the basket, so that everyone would think the basket was filled with weeds.
"Yiyi, how about you give me the stick and I'll carry it for you?"
Yun Yiyi hurried to the front to lead the way, "Brother, no need, my stick is not heavy."
Yun Yiyi was afraid that Big Brother Yun would help her get the stick. She was empty-handed, and Big Brother Yun and Second Brother Yun were carrying baskets on their backs.
Besides, Brother Yun and Brother Yun were not very old. Yun Yiyi really felt embarrassed.
"Third brother, hurry up and catch up. You are walking so slowly with an empty basket on your back."
"Here we go, Yiyi, don't walk so fast. Big brother and second brother won't be able to keep up with us soon."
"I can keep up, Third Brother. Just don't fall behind."
Third Brother Yun was speechless, but he still took a few quick steps and followed Yun Yiyi.
We walked for more than an hour and arrived at the mountain stream.
Brother Yun San put the wild celery he had picked earlier into the basket.
However, after he filled the basket, there was still a lot of wild celery left.
So, Big Brother Yun and Second Brother Yun threw away the weeds on the basket and put the wild celery in.
Finally, there was some wild celery left, which Brother Yun tied into a small bundle and held in his hand.
"Okay, we're close to home now. Let's go quickly and try to get home sooner."
Brother Yun carried the basket on his back and urged his younger brothers and sisters to set off.
Now that we are here, we are indeed close to home.
No one spoke, just looking at the road ahead. As a result, everyone returned home quickly.
"Big brother, second brother, third brother, don't move yet. Let daddy help you take the basket."
As soon as Yun the Butcher saw Brother Yun and his companions, he hurried over to greet them.
"Got it, Dad."
"Dad, hurry up, I'm starving."
"Dad, please unload the third brother's basket first. My brother and I need to put our baskets inside the carriage."
While helping Third Brother Yun unload the basket, Butcher Yun looked at Second Brother Yun in confusion, "What's wrong, Second Brother? Just put the wild celery here first."
"After dinner, your mother and I will pickle them out. Those that need to be pickled can be pickled. There's no need to put them in the carriage."
Yun Yiyi came over quietly, "Dad, there are treasures in the baskets of the eldest and second brothers. Please put them in the carriage first. After dinner, you and mother can slowly clean them up."
When Yun the Butcher heard this, he understood that the children had made a great harvest in the mountains.
So, he happily unloaded the baskets of Brother Yun (Big Brother Yun) and Brother Yun (Second Brother Yun) and moved them into the carriage.
