Transmigrated as a Peasant Baby Who is Pampered by All-Chapter 396 - 254: North, South, East, and West (Part 2)
Seeing that she understood, Xiaocao directly grabbed Xiaomi’s hand: "Let’s hurry up and go. Before they start picking, let’s go quickly."
Wei Ziang brought over two bamboo baskets, carrying Xiaomi’s short bow and quiver on his back.
In just less than ten days, Wei Ziang’s title of ’Sharpshooter’ had already become well-known in Xiangmu Village.
Almost every day, he could accurately hit his prey, so it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say he was one of the only two Hunters in the village.
The other Hunter was a widower who rarely interacted with others and didn’t farm, but could sustain himself solely by hunting.
Xiaomi took her basket: "Why hasn’t anyone else started picking?"
Xiaocao looked back at her in surprise: "Transplanting? Didn’t you know? Your pigsty isn’t even built, your father and others are in the paddy fields."
"Huh? What? They’re transplanting?" Xiaomi’s eyes widened: "When did Dad and Mom start the seedlings? How did I not know at all?"
Xiaocao sighed helplessly: "Uncle Jiang and Auntie really treat you well."
Xiaomi felt very embarrassed. She had thought she was somewhat useful, but now realized she seemed a bit useless, since she didn’t even know how far the farm work had progressed.
She initially thought, that taking advantage of the transplanting and irrigation, she could add more Spiritual Spring water to the canal, so when the village’s crops were harvested, they would be much better.
Wei Ziang patted her head to comfort her: "You’ve been practicing so much lately, Auntie didn’t tell you about this, and just asked me to stay home and keep you company."
The practice Wei Ziang was referring to was obviously sword practice. Although he hadn’t mentioned it to the family, occasionally, during practice, he would be caught.
However, everyone thought the two kids were just playing around, especially Wei Ziang, who pretended to have bought a tattered sword manual for show.
Practicing the sword was exhausting, leading to deep sleep, and during the day, they had to go up the mountain, so naturally, they neglected some household affairs.
Moreover, Jiang Hu directly hired three people, so not to mention the kids, even Auntie didn’t have to be involved in transplanting, only had to cook and take care of the home.
Just as they went out, they bumped into Auntie coming back with pigweed on her back, and in her hands, she was holding a large mulberry leaf wrapped with a bundle of berries.
"You’re here? Try them, they’re freshly picked and very sweet."
The morning berries still had dew on them, looking crystal clear, and appeared even more vibrant in color.
Xiaomi picked one and put it in her mouth, her eyes brightened, then she fed one to both Xiaocao and Wei Ziang: "So delicious, sweet and sour!"
Afterward, she even fed one to Auntie herself: "Mom, you eat these, Xiaocao and I will pick some more now and we can also bring some to Sister Liu and the others tonight."
"Alright, be careful on the way."
Happy with her children’s thoughtfulness, Auntie also enjoyed the berries, which were indeed very tasty.
However, they still weren’t as tasty as the ones Xiaomi picked every time, Auntie reminisced for a moment, suddenly feeling a bit nostalgic.
These berries were common, found all over the countryside, and naturally in Fu’an Village too.
Every year during this season, when they had time, the kids would go find these wild fruits.
But every time, the ones Xiaomi found and brought back were always exceptionally good.
On the other hand, Xiaomi herself, with a good memory but often forgetful, didn’t wander around the village much when there was nothing to do. If it weren’t for Xiaocao coming to find her, or her mother picking them, she would scarcely remember the berries. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
In fact, in Xiaomi’s own space, there were these things too, just that there was never a suitable occasion to bring them out, so she usually forgot about them.
After all, these berries were only edible for about half a month each year, beyond this period, taking them out would seem a bit untimely.
Not every roadside has these berries, because the thorns on those vines are really fierce and can easily cut your hand.
So, some of the thorny vines by the fields are all cleared as weeds, only some small hills without crops have quite a few.
"Wow, look at that, so many!" A vast area, all full of vibrant red berries.
Xiaocao checked Xiaomi’s clothes: "Luckily you didn’t wear a dress today, otherwise it would have gotten torn."
Today, Xiaomi was wearing old clothes, a gray tunic; Xiaocao’s clothes had even more patches.
Xiaomi eagerly picked a few and stuffed them directly into her mouth: "So tasty, both sour and sweet."
"Don’t eat too many, be careful your teeth get sore, and it’s not just here. There’s more on the mountain, we can fill the entire bamboo basket!"
