I farmed and built a villa in ancient times

Chapter 77 Good things come to your door 2
When she went out in the morning, she thought that just picking up a small backpack and carrying one or two pounds would be enough. Now looking at the plum trees on the mountain, she was really short-sighted.

Isn't this the orchard she has dreamed of since she was a child?
Pick whatever you like.

Zhou Wanqiu also looked at Li Zilin in surprise, "So many plums! This is the first time I have seen so many plums in my life."

"There is nothing else in our family, but this one has the most fruits." Chen Tongsheng smiled boldly.

Zhou Chenyu picked a plum that looked very similar to a sunshine rose nearby, but was immediately stopped by Chen Tongsheng, "The green plums have just formed, so they taste sour, and the sourness makes your teeth weak. The red ones are ripe and sweet. It’s sweet, but soft and doesn’t taste very good.”

Chen Tongsheng picked a bunch of plums that were yellow on the surface with some red in between. "These half-cooked plums are sweet and crisp, and they taste the best."

Chen Tongsheng ate one himself and handed it to Zhou Chenyu: "Here, you all should try it too."

Zhou Chenyu took the bunch of plums and took a shallow bite. The sweet and sour juice along with the pulp overflowed in his mouth, "Hmm, it's very sweet."

Zhou Wanqiu nodded repeatedly, finished eating one and took another carefully.

Chen Tongsheng saw that Zhou Wanqiu was so cautious, so he directly picked another large bunch and stuffed it into her hand, "Wan Qiu, there is no need to see other people like this with Brother Chen. You can eat whatever you want."

"Thank you, Brother Chen." Zhou Wanqiu covered the bunch of fruits in his hand, lowered his eyes, and his face turned as red as a ripe red apple.

Chen Tongsheng looked at her face with a worried expression, "But the sun is too hot today. Can I find you a shady place to take a rest?"

Zhou Wanqiu was frightened and refused immediately: "No, no, no, Brother Chen, I'm fine."

"Your face is so red? How can it be okay?" Chen Tongsheng frowned, "Little girl, there is no need to hide in front of me. If you feel uncomfortable, just say it."

"I..." Zhou Wanqiu squeezed the fruit tightly, and the redness spread to the roots of her ears.

Zhou Chenyu carefully studied Zhou Wanqiu's reaction, a pair of black eyes flickering back and forth between her and Chen Tongsheng, and finally smiled meaningfully.

"Brother Chen, don't be nervous. In late autumn, your face will turn red after being exposed to the sun for a while. I'm used to it since she was little, and she doesn't feel uncomfortable."

Zhou Wanqiu snuggled next to Zhou Chenyu and responded in a panic, "Yes, I've been like this since I was a child. I'm not sick."

"Really? As long as everything is fine, it's fine." Chen Tongsheng breathed a sigh of relief, completely unaware of his daughter's family's concerns. He smiled heartlessly and said: "The sun is getting stronger and stronger, hurry up and pick up the plums." Come on. After you finish picking it up, if the grass over there is cleared, I will go back with you."

Zhou Chenyu smiled and nodded, "Okay."

After saying that, Chen Tongsheng picked up a hoe, returned to the orange saplings, and began to weed the ground.

Zhou Chenyu and Zhou Wanqiu stayed where they were and started picking plums.Although the plum tree grows tall, some of its branches laden with fruits hang down to the mud.

Zhou Chenyu pulled Zhou Wanqiu to hide under the shade of a tree, sat down on the grass, casually pulled off a branch, slowly picked the plums on it and threw them into the bamboo basket.

They were sitting on a high ground, so they could see Chen Tongsheng's busy figure.

Zhou Chenyu looked at him while picking up plums and praised: "Brother Chen can not only plant fruit trees all over the mountain, but he is also generous and caring. He is really a rare good man. There will definitely be a lot of girls competing for him." Yes, those who like him should hurry up." Zhou Wanqiu's eyes paused, his head almost buried in his arms, hesitantly responded, "That's what my sister said."

Seeing that she had no reaction, Zhou Chenyu poked her shoulder hard, "Why are you pretending? I'm talking about you. If you really like Brother Chen, then stop being secretive and hurry up. After leaving this village, This store no longer exists.”

Zhou Wanqiu knew that she could no longer hide her thoughts, so she looked up with a red face, "Sister Chen Yu, I..."

Zhou Chenyu saw that she seemed to have something to hide, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Wanqiu pinched the leaves absentmindedly, her emotions twisted into a rope, "Sister Chen Yu, Brother Chen likes you."

?

Zhou Chenyu had a headache. She even tried to convince Chen Tongsheng, but she still couldn't shut everyone's mouths.

She knocked Zhou Wanqiu on the forehead with a branch and cursed angrily: "What are you thinking about? Brother Chen is my adopted brother and I am her adopted sister. Which brother and sister have you ever seen together? Wouldn't it be chaotic if we were together? Already?"

Zhou Wanqiu covered her forehead pitifully, with a hint of joy in her expression. She looked at Chen Tongsheng with watery eyes and muttered:
"I am happy with Brother Chen, but I don't know what Brother Chen thinks?"

Zhou Chenyu leaned comfortably under the tree, using leaves to block the sun, squinting and smiling:
"Silly sister, if you like him, what does it have to do with whether he likes you or not? When you meet someone you like, everyone has the right to actively fight for it. You don't have to wait for the man to take the initiative. You can also take the initiative."

Zhou Wanqiu blinked and silently remembered these words in his heart. He tilted his head and asked curiously, "Sister Chen Yu, Brother Chen is so nice, but you don't like him. What kind of man do you like?"

What kind of man do you like?

Zhou Chenyu took a bite of the plum, chewed it several times, reviewed his past relationships, and concluded an iron rule. He pursed his lips and smiled: "I like men who don't like me. That's more challenging."

After laughing, Zhou Chenyu spit out the core and muttered dullly, "But I still prefer making more money than men."

Why is it important for a man to have money?
Zhou Chenyu and Zhou Wanqiu picked up plums very quickly. Within an hour, the baskets on their backs were already full.

Chen Tongsheng's original intention was that they could go home after picking up the fruits, but they felt uncomfortable. After taking the heavy baskets to the fruit tree house at the bottom of the mountain, they went back to the mountain to help weed.

After a while, the three of them cleared the mountain covered with weeds, revealing neat rows of orange trees.

After finishing, they sat on the mountainside to rest, looking at the green pine forest on the opposite mountain. Crows were soaring and circling in the blue sky, making a burst of ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. , the leaves rustled.

Chen Tongsheng patted his butt and sat up, "It's getting late. You have to walk for half an hour to go back now. You must be late for lunch at home. It's better to eat here before leaving."

Zhou Chenyu was too tired to walk, so he didn't want to stay for a meal, but he still glanced at Zhou Wanqiu and asked for her opinion, "Do you want to stay?"

Zhou Wanqiu was naturally happy to be able to stay a little longer and nodded in agreement.
