Only when Yifu carried an empty wicker basket over did Xue Yan say, “Mother, Jiang Yue and I will go pick some. The tree isn’t that tall, so you guys can stay here and gather firewood.”
“That’s fine. You guys go ahead. Be careful when you go downhill.” Liu Guixia smiled.
“We will.” Xue Yan and Jiang Yue both agreed.
Xue Yifu helped them place the two empty baskets in front of one of the lemon trees. When Xue Yifu saw the golden fruits, he only smiled foolishly. He was happy to see that there was something wild in the house again. Following that, Xue Yifu also went to help gather firewood.
The sweet potatoes were all picked back.
When Jiang Yue saw Xue Yifu leave, just the two of them took out the small bag of lemons that they had picked yesterday from the space and poured them all into a basket.
Xue Yan was incomparably calm. With just a glance, his hands started to pluck the lemons on the tree.
Jiang Yue also began to pluck them.
After picking all the lemons from the seven lemon trees, the two large baskets were quickly filled.
There was still a little pile on top of the two baskets.
If it wasn’t for the lemons that he had picked yesterday, there would probably only be two baskets. However, since he had already picked them, he wouldn’t waste them if he could. Naturally, he had to take them all out and put them in the basket.
When Xue Erfu finished gathering firewood and came to pick it up with a carrying pole, he did not find it strange to see more golden fruits than he had expected.
When they returned home, Li Hehua, Yu Hongyan, and Zi Cui all gathered around to take a look. They all felt that it was novel.
Yu Hongyan passed Xue Shi to Zi Cui and asked her to carry him for a while. Then, she took a kitchen knife and cut a golden fruit. Just like at home, she cut it into small pieces and threw it into the chicken coop to show the chicken.
When the chickens at home saw that they were given food to eat, they quickly ran over. In the end, they only pecked subconsciously and stopped pecking. They didn’t even look at it anymore.
Xue Erfu immediately picked up another golden fruit and smiled as he looked at it. “What is this? Even the chickens don’t want it. However, it smells quite fragrant.”
Yu Hongyan smiled. “You don’t say. The flesh of the fruit is so clear and it looks quite nice. Why don’t you smash it into chicken food and let the chicken eat it? It might be like an orange. It could be edible.”
Liu Guixia looked at the crystal clear golden fruit and smiled. “I’ve never seen the citron in the academy cut open, so I don’t know, but you’re right this cut looks like an orange. Let’s try again.”
He tried this method, and the next day, when he saw that the chicken was fine, he cut another lemon.
This time, it was Liu Guixia who cut it. After cutting it, she gave a small piece to everyone present to taste.
Xue Erfu tasted it first and immediately lost control of his face.
Xue Yan felt sour just looking at it.
He had heard from Jiang Yue that this was very sour. He didn’t dare to eat it after that.
“Mother, what is this!” Xue Erfu was still losing control of his face.
“What’s wrong, Erfu?” Xue Dafu did not understand why his second son was like this. He subconsciously took a bite and immediately showed the same expression.
Seeing that his father’s face had also lost control, completely unable to control himself, Xue Yan silently stuffed that small piece of lemon in his hand into Jiang Yue’s little hand.
Jiang Yue held onto the small piece of lemon that she had been given.
Jiang Yue looked at her left hand and then at her right hand.
Xue Yan looked up at the sky, not looking at Jiang Yue anymore.
“What are you…?” Liu Guixia was confused. She looked at the small piece of lemon in her hand suspiciously. It didn’t look like it couldn’t be eaten..
