Chapter 20 Uphill

Chapter 20 Going up the mountain

When the sky turned bright, Mu Run woke up.

I cooked two bowls of porridge and fried some stir-fried pork. After eating them all, I cleaned the small yard inside and out again until it was clean and spotless, and then I picked up a basket and a small shovel.

, left the small courtyard.

Yesterday, Manager Yang said she couldn't go down the mountain, but she could go up the mountain, so she decided to go up the mountain to have a look.

On her way out, she happened to bump into Manager Yang, and she raised her hand to say hello.

Manager Yang was stunned for a moment before he realized that this person was new to Yihua Garden.

Seeing that she was wearing casual clothes for going out to work, she hurriedly asked: "Where are you going, girl?"

"Go up the mountain. If you have something to deliver to me today, just leave it at the door."

"Oh, okay. Girl, go slowly. The mountain road is difficult to walk, so don't fall."

"I know, thank you."

Mu Run happily went up the mountain road.

Manager Yang also continued to be busy with his own affairs.

Not long after climbing the mountain road, Mu Run stopped and looked at a tree growing on the edge of the cliff with surprise, which was as thick as an arm...

She, she can't be dazzled!

Mu Run rubbed her eyes vigorously and looked carefully again.

The tree is still there!

"Oh my god! How is this possible, wild tea tree!"

The hillside close to the tea tree was covered with thick moss. If you were not careful, you might slip. Mu Run walked to the edge of the cliff carefully, fearing that he would be dazzled and see the wrong thing.

"It's really a tea tree." Murun smiled happily. It was warm and soft, like the morning sunshine. What made her even happier was that this tea tree was covered with new buds, which were picked right after they were picked.

good times.

Mu Run, who had been picking tea leaves with her parents since she was a child, immediately climbed towards the wild tea tree with a basket on her back. She was not afraid of the moss under her feet or the abyss of hundreds of feet, and only saw the tea tree.

The roots of the tea tree are also covered with thick moss, the branches are green and strong, and the branches and leaves are green and full of vitality.

I couldn't wait to pick a piece of green leaf, rubbed it and smelled it... The rich aroma of leaf aldehyde hit my nostrils!

"Good leaves." Although I don't know how the finished product will turn out, I can't go wrong with the green fragrance of tea leaves.

Mu Run carried a basket on his back and started picking tea leaves.

The more she picked, the better she felt, her eyes were shining, and her mind was thinking about how to process these tea greens. Her family makes rock tea, so she can start with what she is good at.

Not long after, the wild tea tree was stripped of its buds and leaves, leaving only the bare branches and old leaves.

Mu Run waved towards the tea tree and said, "Thank you for the gift."

As for this tree, I harvested almost half a basket and two or three pounds of fresh leaves, and about two ounces of dried tea was made.

"I wonder if there are any other tea trees?" He looked around.

After not seeing the second tea tree, I continued climbing up the mountain.

When he almost reached the top of the mountain, Mu Run stopped again and held his breath!

here!

There is a patch of wild tea trees! Among them there are several ancient tea trees that look like they are hundreds of years old.

"Really or not? Did God take pity on him and leave a tea tree forest specially?" Mu Run looked at the tea trees in disbelief.

She picked two leaves and smelled the aroma of tea leaves. It was different from the ones she had picked before. The smell was not that strong, but there was obviously a faint sweet scent of flowers and plants, similar to the smell of gardenia.

Mu Run, who was completely immersed in the tea forest, didn't know that Qiao Dongzi came to Yihua Garden to find her.

"Lao Yang, I'm busy." Qiao Dongzi came over with a few bags in his hand.

When Manager Yang saw that it was Qiao Dongzi, he said respectfully: "Congratulations, Hall Master Qiao, on the birth of your son."

In the village, Qiao Dongzi is the master of the torture hall. He seems to be a talkative and playful person, but in fact he is a ruthless master. Anyone who falls into his hands will be stripped of their skin at the very least.

"Thank you, thank you. I will definitely come back to drink the full moon wine later."

"Just waiting for Hall Master Qiao's words." Manager Yang smiled, and then looked at the several bundles he was carrying in his hand, "What is this?"

"Oh, this is sister-in-law's thing. I'm here to meet sister-in-law. Where is she now?"

Manager Yang was confused, "Sister-in-law?"

"The woman who came back with me yesterday is Mrs. Yazhai from Bianyun Village. Isn't she in Yihuayuan?"

"You said that Miss Mu, she is the wife of the village owner?"

"What Miss Mu...oh, her surname is Mu. Where is she?"

"Miss Xiaowan has placed her in Mingxiang Residence. Hall Master Qiao is coming with me."

"Mingxiang Residence?" Qiao Dongzi chuckled when he heard about the place where Mo Xiaowan placed Mu Run, "Xiaowan usually looks good, but this time he fell behind."

Manager Yang has also served two generations of village masters. He is used to seeing strong winds and waves, and is experienced in the world. After listening to Qiao Dongzi's words, he immediately understood the twists and turns, "It's not impossible to understand. Miss Xiaowan's thoughts towards the village master, the village master

Who doesn’t know the ups and downs inside, so it’s better to tell them clearly.”

Soon the two of them arrived at Mingxiangju.

Looking at the lock hanging on the door, Manager Yang slapped his forehead and said, "Look at my memory. Early this morning, Madam went up the mountain carrying a basket."

"Going up the mountain? What are you doing?" Qiao Dongzi looked towards the mountain. Yesterday he looked disgusted with climbing the mountain, but today he took the initiative to go up it.

"The lady didn't say anything, but do you want me to send someone up the mountain to look for her immediately?"

"Go. Don't let anything happen to this person, otherwise it will be difficult for any of us to do business."

"Okay, I'll take them there myself."

Qiao Dongzi looked at the baggage in his hand, then at the lock on the door, and then jumped into the small courtyard.

In the quiet courtyard, there is a clump of green bamboo, and the doorframes are all newly wiped and clean. There is a recliner in the courtyard. On the armrests and backrest of the recliner, there are snow-white socks and red embroidered small bags with happy words.

Clothes.

When Qiao Dongzi saw the little clothes, he quickly looked away, picked up the bag and ran away.

He didn't stop until he ran some distance away from Mingxiangju. His ears were still a little red and his whole face was pale... It was over! If the boss knew, he would have to kill him.

...Wait a minute, no one knows that he has entered Mingxiang Residence, except God, the earth, and himself. As long as he doesn't talk about it, how can the boss know?

Thinking of this, he felt relieved again.

"Hall Master Qiao?" A graceful and melodious voice called out.

"Who!" Qiao Dongzi immediately turned around and looked back, his eyes filled with a fierce glare that could not be restrained.

The visitor was immediately startled, and the small jar in his hand fell to the ground, exuding a sweet aroma of wine.

"Uh!" Qiao Dongzi looked at the person who came with a gauze face and a white dress. He clasped his fists and made a half salute, "Miss Baochan."

Baochan took two steps back, further away from the broken wine jar fragments, and distanced herself from Qiao Dongzi, "Why did Hall Master Qiao come to Yihua Garden?"

Qiao Dongzi said: "I'm here to see my sister-in-law."



‘A sneeze’——

Mu Run, who was picking tea leaves, suddenly had an itchy nose and sneezed.
