Qiao Xuan had been thinking about the creeping figs and expected that they would be ripe by this point.
Each fruit was slightly larger than an egg. They could pick it and bring out a pack of finely crushed seeds from inside, and dry it in the sun. When they wanted to eat the jelly, they could wash it with water and let it condense.
They could break the transparent jelly in a bowl, add some sugar water, a little mint juice, and some other nuts. That was the taste she had been thinking about for a long time.
When the work in the farm wasn’t that heavy, Shao Dalang and Ms. Xu and others waited for Qiao Xuan to go into the mountain together.
Shao Yunduan also wanted to take a break from his studies, so he offered to tag along.
Qiao Xuan got quite motivated being in the environment where she was surrounded by plants.
Since it was autumn when the liveliness wasn’t that strong, she was slightly slower in using her superpower.
Qiao Xuan decided to find some wild grapes in the first two days as well as other things.
But birds in the woods loved to eat wild grapes, so they needed to hurry up before the birds pecked the plants.
Wine made with grapes could be brewed easily, so they had three large jars that could hold at least 100 kgs of wild grapes.
Therefore, they only needed to get around 100 kgs of wild grapes.
They were going to remove the veins, and the rotten and bad fruits.
Wild grapes were plants with veins, and they kept climbing up to the top of the trees so as to get plenty of sunlight.
Therefore, it was not an easy job to get the grapes.
There were mountain grapes also present in low and wide places, but often the mountain grapes in low places did not grow well, and the output was very low.
Shao Xiaoqi was quite familiar with the woods, and he was quite happy and energetic.
There were all kinds of wild fruits in the mountains, especially in the sparsely populated and densely forested mountains.
Soon, Shao Xiaoqi saw the wild grapes hanging on the top of the pine trees, as he said with a smile, “Look, the grapes are there!”
“Yes, there are grapes!’
“They look delicious!”
“I agree!’
Shao Sanlang and his wife said the last two words.
The tree was not too tall and twigs were very thick, so Shao Xiaoqiclimbed up very easily while the others were just looking up at him.
Soon Shao Xiaoqi came down and had half of the basket filled with the fruits.
The fresh fruits were so beautiful and they all started to try some.
They were lucky, as there were no birds visiting this grape tree, and the clusters were quite complete Each bunch was about the size of three fingers and as long as a palm, and they were tangled tightly together.
Each cluster was small but quite pretty.
They were sharing the fruits, sweet and sour, amidst the unique freshness of the woods.
“Very delicious!”
“We can take so many of them back each year!’
Qiao Xuan loved the taste too, a bit sour and sweet, suitable for wine making. They were eating the grapes while they walked forward.
Qiao Xuan used her superpower and picked the place where wild grapes were
abundant.
Soon, they ran into a patch of land where wild grapes were growing best.
“There are so many of them!”
“Yes, so many!”
