Chapter 59 Pecans

After hanging up the phone, Uncle Zhang continued to drive, and said while driving, "I'll let my son drive you there on a motorcycle."

Qiu Ying said gratefully: "Uncle Zhang, I have troubled you so much this time, I don't even know how to thank you."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, it's all incidental."

Looking at Uncle Zhang's thin back, Qiu Ying sighed softly: How lucky I am, I am grateful to meet you.

The snow stopped, and the sun struggled to get rid of the shackles of the clouds and got out, sprinkled on the roof, in the woods, and in the fields.The whole village is like wearing a white gauze, which looks extraordinarily holy in winter.

When I came to the stage in Xitou Village, there were a few little boys playing marbles on the high stage. Qiuying also went on the stage. When I got closer, I found that the marbles in the hands of the children were actually hickory nuts. Put ten on the ground.

Qiuying asked curiously, "My little friend, where did you get so many hickory nuts?"

The children all pointed to a large leafless forest not far away.One of the youngest children said to Qiu Ying in a childlike voice: "Sister, there are still many on the ground in the forest over there. Let's take you to pick them up."

"Okay." Qiuying thought that she was waiting anyway, so she might as well open her eyes.

Qiuying talked to Uncle Zhang, and then went into the woods with the children.

Seven or eight children cheerfully led Qiu Ying into the forest. The children pulled up a thick layer of snow on the ground, revealing some dead leaves mixed with walnuts. The leaves and walnuts are in the same color. When they dug out walnuts, as long as they found one, the children would be unspeakably happy, and gave Qiuying all the walnuts they found in good condition.

Qiuying saw a large walnut split open, and she opened it without too much effort, revealing the dark brown dry kernels completely.She blew on it with her mouth, ready to take a small bite.

"Can't eat!" A high-pitched and forceful shout stopped.

Qiu Ying looked up, and it turned out to be Brother Ye.

She tilted her head and asked, "Brother Ye, I saw that the nuts are not bad at all, why can't they be eaten?"

Big Brother Ye: "It doesn't look bad on the surface, but the bacteria must have exceeded the standard. It is very likely that harmful bacteria and microorganisms have grown, and it may cause food poisoning after eating."

Qiu Ying closed her mouth instantly, holding the nut in her hand.Seeing this, the youngest child tugged at the corner of her clothes, blinking her big eyes: "Sister, come to my house, I have walnuts that can be eaten."

Qiu Ying bent down, pinched his round face lightly with her hands, and said with a smile, "What's your name?"

"My name is Gou Wa, and my house is just ahead." Gou Wa said while pulling Qiu Ying towards his house.

"Gouwa, my sister is going home today, and I'll go to your house next time, okay?"

Gouwa lowered his head in disappointment: "Okay then."

Qiu Ying turned to look at Big Brother Ye, and asked, "Brother Ye, is there anything you want to do in Xitou Village?"

"Ah."

"Okay, Brother Ye, you go first, goodbye." Qiu Ying waved to him.

"Aren't you going home?"

"Back."

"Let's go then."

"But, Uncle Zhang said..." Qiu Ying looked towards the stage to find Uncle Zhang, but found that he was no longer there.

It seems that Brother Ye took over the task of sending her home.

Qiuying bowed slightly, smiled and said, "Then I'll trouble Brother Ye."

Then I said goodbye to the children who were still digging walnuts on the ground. Gou Wa Nong reluctantly took her hand: "My sister must come to my house to eat walnuts next time."
