pecan

It was rare to relax, so Xu Mumu did not force a few children to study anymore and was about to take them up the mountain to play.

"Sister, I know there is a place with s growing. Let's pick up walnuts." Tiedan said excitedly.

"Isn't it far?" Xu Mumu was a little surprised. Walnuts are good things. If they are close, go and get more back.

"It's not far away, not far from the back mountain of my Fourth Master's house. A few days ago, I heard Zhao Jingjing and the others talking, and I don't know how much there is left." Tiedan thought for a while and said.

"Let's go over and take a look." Xu Mumu nodded.

Several children carried small baskets on their backs and headed up the mountain. After walking for more than twenty minutes, they arrived at the place where Tiedan said there were s.

There are already people picking up here, there are not many on the ground, and even many trees have been beaten down by others, leaving only some on the top of the tree.

"Sister, we're late." Xu Minglei was a little unhappy.

"It's okay, isn't this still there? I'll shake the walnut trees and you can pick them up below." Xu Mumu said indifferently. These hickory trees are not far from the brigade. There must be many people who know there are hickory here. There are still some of them here now.

Those who pick up walnuts here are almost all teenagers, and some even climb onto the trees to beat the walnuts down.

Xu Mumu chose a walnut tree that no one climbed the tree, and shook it hard, and the walnuts on the top of the tree fell down. If Xu Mumu hadn't controlled his strength, it would have been a problem for her to uproot the walnut tree.

"It hurts, sister, it hit me." Xu Minglei covered his head, and a walnut hit his head just now.

"Aren't you letting you wait aside first?" Xu Mumu said helplessly, "Let's see." Xu Mumu moved the little boy's hand away and looked at the place where he was smashed. It was just a bit red, but there was no other problem.

"It's okay, it'll be fine in a while. When I shake it later, I'm not allowed to stay under the tree." Xu Mumu glared at his younger brother.

"I understand, sister." Xu Minglei felt aggrieved.

"Pick up all these quickly." Xu Mumu said to several children.

The few shaking Xu Mumu just shook almost all the walnuts on the top of the tree.

Several children were very fast. If they didn't pick them up, they would be picked up by other children.

"Sister Mu Mu, how did you shake it? Why did you shake the walnuts in an instant? My brother couldn't shake it." A five or six-year-old girl looked at Xu Mu Mu with envy.

The little girl is called Liu Xiaofen, and her brother is called Liu Xiaoqiao. She is twelve years old this year and is not young anymore, but how can he compare with Xu Mumu with that little strength?

After his sister said this, the little boy's face turned red, "If you say that, I won't help you climb on the tree and get walnuts."

"I'm just strong. Do you want me to shake it for you?" Xu Mumu said with a smile. She had a little impression of this Liu Xiaofen, and her family was quite poor.

"I want it." Several children said quickly. Xu Minglei and his friends were so envious of them.

Xu Mumu shook a walnut tree for them, and then ignored them.

Xu Mumu and the others have a lot of people, so they can pick up walnuts and have very high efficiency.

"Wow, the harvest is good. When I take it back and dry it, I will definitely have more than half of it." After almost all, Xu Mumu looked at the things picked up by the children in surprise.

"Walnuts are the best at this time, and they will not be that delicious after they are dried." Xu Jiaojiao licked her lips and decided to get a few of them when she went back.

"I also think the walnuts are the best at this time." Xu Minglei agreed very much.

Xu Mumu looked at their childhood words and said nothing. He harvested thirty or forty kilograms of walnuts, which was really a lot. The main reason was that the walnuts here were almost beaten by others.

Take the walnuts home, put them in the dustpan, and then place them on the firewood stack, so that the sun can be sunbathed.

"Sister, you eat it." Xu Jiaojiao peeled out a few walnuts, making her hands dark, but her face had a bright smile.

"Thank you Jiaojiao." Xu Mumu nodded with a smile, took a few walnuts, pushed apart the skin of the walnut kernels, and put one into his mouth. It was crispy and fragrant, and the taste was really good.

After Xu Mumu had almost eaten the walnuts, he had time to see the children. Their hands were all black. The green skin of the walnut was difficult to wash, so it was probably time for several children to keep their hands on for a while.

"Sister, what do you think we are doing?" Xu Jiaojiao looked at Xu Mumu in confusion.

"Your hands are too dark, and I guess they can't wash them off for a long time." Xu Mumu said with a smile. His grandmother was a bit obsessed with cleanliness. Seeing a few children like this, she probably couldn't stand it.

"That's it, it's okay, it'll be gone after a while." Looking at his dark hands, Xu Jiaojiao said indifferently. Walnuts are so delicious.

Xu Mumu peeled a few walnuts for Li Caixia, and opened them and it was her younger brother who came. She didn't want to dirty her hands.

"Mom, try it." Xu Mumu sent the walnuts to Li Caixia's bed. Li Caixia was now carrying the clothes that Xu Minglei had worn and was changing. The baby in her belly was about to be born in more than two months, so naturally the child's clothes were ready.

"Walnuts, how many have you been to cook?" Li Caixia ate happily and asked. This thing is more nutritious and needs to be eaten more.

"There are quite a few, just put them on the woodshed and hung them. Mom, are you making clothes for your younger brothers and sisters?" Xu Mumu asked with a smile.

"I didn't make the clothes well. I didn't do them after making two pieces. Your dad took them to your aunt's house and asked her to help. I'm making some diapers now." Li Caixia said with a smile.

At noon, Mrs. Chen came back and saw the dirty hands of a few little kids, so she asked them to take the soapcorns to wash them by the river before coming back.

The weather became cooler, and Xu Mumu went out with him.

By the river at the entrance of the village, several children rubbed their soaps hard, but their hands were still pitch black.

"I won't wash it anymore. Anyway, I can't wash it clean, and my hands are soaked." Xu Minglei threw the soapcorn into Xu Tao's hands, and then washed his hands in the water, so he didn't want to wash it.

With Xu Minglei taking the lead, no few children were willing to wash.

When he went back, Xu Mumu suddenly saw a timid person climbing up to the wall of the house where the female educated youth lived.

Xu Mumu frowned, and then said to the children, "You guys go back first, I have something to do."

"Sister, what are you going to do?" Xu Jiaojiao looked at Xu Mumu in confusion.

"Go to the educated youth, can you go back first?" Xu Mumu said gently.
