Chapter 70 Picking Longan

Lin Tian got up, washed and had breakfast, and walked to the door to see Lin Xiaoguo sitting on a small stool in a daze.

She held her cheek and looked up at the longan on the tree, wiping the non-existent drool from the corner of her mouth from time to time.

Xiaobao was lying next to her, yawning lazily on the threshold.

It has no interest in longan. Even though it knows that longan is a good thing, it is still a cat.

You have to peel the longan shell to get a little bit of meat. It takes a long time and you don't get much. It's not as cost-effective as eating two delicious fish.

Lin Xiaoguo kept touching Xiaobao's fur and talking to it.

"Xiaobao, please don't act recklessly. I want to wait for my brother to wake up and pick the longan for me. Oh, what should I do? I really want to eat it."

Xiaobao let out a long "meow", seeming to be responding to Lin Xiaoguo, with a puzzled tone.

It doesn't understand why children like to eat these snacks and other small things, such as melon seeds and longan, but it is too lazy to eat them because it feels like it is stuffing between its teeth.

Seeing this scene, Lin Tian was a little confused about whether to laugh or cry. He cleared his throat.

"Ahem, I think I heard some foodie say that she wants to eat longan?"

Lin Xiaoguo's eyes suddenly widened, and he turned his head to look at Lin Tian, ​​looking very excited.

"Brother! You finally woke up! Look, the longan is ripe. My mother picked two for me to eat this morning. They are so delicious!"

Lin Xiaoguo pointed to Lin Tian the numerous fruits hanging on the branches, and Lin Tian pretended to be surprised.

"It's true! Xiaoguo, maybe your sincerity moved the world and made the longan ripe immediately."

"That's right! Maybe I'm very good and did a good job in my homework yesterday, so my wish came true today.

Brother, what should I do if I’m too short and can’t reach the longan? Mom said, I want you to help me pick the longan!”

As Lin Xiaoguo spoke, her voice became softer and quieter, and she looked at Lin Tian eagerly, making it clear that she wanted Lin Tian to help her pick the longan quickly.

Lin Tian hated her pitiful look and touched the top of her head.

"Okay, okay, little snack. If you want to eat, just say so. Don't look at me with such pitiful eyes, as if I'm abusing you."

"Great! Xiaobao, I have longan to eat!"

Lin Xiaoguo picked up the little baby and spun around happily.

Xiaobao was held tightly by her, and she let out a low "meow" with a helpless look in her eyes. It was just a toy at the moment.

Lin Tian looked at the number of longans and estimated the workload. Then, he stood on tiptoes, picked off two longans, and stuffed them into Lin Xiaoguo's hands.

"Xiaoguo, go find Sister Bai Ling at her house and ask her to come over with their banana picking tools and pick longans with us."

Lin Xiaoguo peeled the longan shell three times, put it into his mouth, and said cheerfully: "Okay! I'll go right away!"

Xiaobao followed Lin Xiaoguo and looked back at Lin Tian. His eyes seemed to remind Lin Tian.

Lin Tian wanted to know what Xiaobao wanted, and said to him: "How dare I not do what I promised you? After picking the longan, I will go to the fish pond and get two fish for you to eat."

Xiaobao received the promise, nodded proudly, raised his head and went out to follow Lin Xiaoguo.

Lin Tian looked at the branches of the longan tree. As before, it was not difficult to climb.

He found a few sacks in the yard, opened the mouths of the bags, then hugged the tree trunk with both hands, clamped his legs together, and climbed up using his hands and feet, and soon he was up.

After a while, he came to a big branch and walked to the branch to pick longan.

First he picked a bunch himself, sat on a branch, and tasted it happily.

“Tastes really good!”

Not long after, footsteps came from the door, accompanied by the excited voices of Lin Xiaoguo talking to Bai Ling.

The two of them walked into the yard and saw no one, only a few empty sacks on the ground.

Bai Ling raised his head and looked at the trees, but couldn't find Lin Tian's figure.

"Xiaoguo, didn't your brother ask me to bring the tools for picking longan? Where are the others?"

Lin Xiaoguo also looked baffled.

"I don't know where my brother went. He was still in the yard just now."

"Maybe it's in the house."

Hearing Bai Ling's words, Lin Xiaoguo shouted into the room at the top of his lungs: "Brother! Brother!"

Suddenly, something hit Lin Xiaoguo's head lightly, but she didn't notice it and called Lin Tian hard.

"boom."

When Bai Ling saw Lin Xiaoguo being hit on the head by a longan shell, he understood something in his heart.

Before she could think of a way to expose the man's trick, she felt a longan core being smashed into her hat. She looked up and found Lin Tian sitting on a big tree branch, with a leisurely expression but a hint of cunning.

"Okay, you actually threw longan at us! You can just climb the tree and pick it yourself. I'm leaving."

Lin Xiaoguo also put her hands on her hips and said angrily: "Brother has gone too far! He hid in the tree and made no sound. I shouted so many times that my voice became hoarse."

Seeing that Bai Ling was really going to leave, Lin Tian quickly surrendered and kept others.

"Bai Ling, don't be so stingy! I'm just kidding you.

Without your help, I wouldn't be able to pick the longans on those small branches. Now, don't be angry, I'll give you a bunch of longans to try."

A faint smile appeared on Bai Ling's lips. She was not that easily angry.

She turned around nimbly, accurately caught the large bunch of longan that Lin Tian threw to her, and ate it with Lin Xiaoguo.

Her eyes became brighter and she kept nodding.

"It's delicious! It's the best longan I've ever tasted. The taste is even better than the longan sold outside."

"Of course, as long as I'm in charge and the crops in my house are prosperous, everything will taste great!"

Lin Xiaoguo tugged on the hem of Bai Ling's clothes and said helplessly: "Sister Bai Ling, sometimes my brother talks so bad. My mother taught me not to pay attention to him. The more I pay attention to him, the more angry he gets."

Bai Ling was amused by Lin Xiaoguo's mature words.

"Hey, Xiaoguo, why are you trying to discredit your brother? His arms are bent outwards before he grows up."

Bai Ling and Lin Xiaoguo happily ate the longan, ignoring his protests.

Lin Tian sighed helplessly, sat on a branch and started picking longan.

"Here comes the longan, Xiaoguo, you are responsible for opening the bag!"

Lin Xiaoguo stood obediently under the tree, opened the mouth of the sack, and asked Lin Tian to throw longan down from the tree.

Bai Ling, on the other hand, used tools to pick the fruits at the end of the twigs.

The tool she used was a long bamboo pole with a curved sickle tied to it, which was specially used to pick crops from high places.

After Lin Xiaoguo stood under the tree for a while, she felt a little bored. She looked up and saw Lin Tian sitting on the branch eating longan comfortably, and was very envious.

She whispered to Bai Ling: "Sister Bai Ling, can you support me underneath? I also want to climb the tree to pick longan."

Bai Ling was startled by Lin Xiaoguo's bold idea.

"No, no, the tree is so tall, it's very dangerous."

Lin Xiaoguo's eyes rolled, and she continued to encourage Bai Ling.

"No, I can climb trees. As long as you don't tell my brother, I'll go to the shorter branch and I can climb it."

"No! It's too dangerous. If your brother finds out, he will definitely scold you."

Before she could finish her words, Lin Tian's cool words came from above her head.
