MTL - I’m Working As a Renter In An Unfinished Building-Chapter 26 Mosquito repellent
Chapter 26 Mosquito repellent
Xiao Yijing showed the way, while Xia Zhengting drove the car forward.
Soon, they left the concrete road and came to a clearing.
There is a lot of open space in Yunlu Mountain Villa. After all, it was planned well at the beginning. This area was planned to be used as a small park. No, all the trees were planted.
Some of the fruit trees here were planted that year, and some were planted by other people later.
No matter who planted it, there are many kinds of fruit trees here.
There are so many fruit trees without any rules, so they are planted randomly, and all kinds of weeds grow wildly below, and there is almost no place to set foot.
Everyone held a long wooden stick in their hands, and beat around in the haystack, scaring away the snakes and insects inside.
"Fortunately, there are no bugs here."
Walking to the fruit tree, Lao Lin breathed a sigh of relief, "No one has been here for a long time, and there are too many grasses!"
Grandma Liu also nodded, "Indeed, I didn't see many bugs."
How did they know that Xiao Yijing had already driven all the bugs aside.
When we got to the fruit trees, everyone looked up at the fruits on these trees.
These fruit trees have basically grown for several years, and some have grown for more than ten years. They all grow very tall, and there are many fruits hanging on the trees.
Under the tree is the fallen fruit, which has accumulated over the years, and the tree is a bit messy.
Just seeing these fruits, they understood why Xiao Yijing didn't want to move anymore.
These trees are at least two or three meters high, and some are five or six meters high. They grow very lushly, and it is not easy to pick the fruit!
"It seems that we need to find someone to pick it later." Xia Zhengting took off a handful of lychees, ate one casually, and nodded with satisfaction, "It tastes like this."
Huo Fangling was not to be outdone, and tried his best to try the fruit of every tree.
"tasty!"
Whether it is lychee, longan or mango yellow skin, they are all delicious!
It's the taste they tasted before!
"Pick it yourself." Xiao Yijing leaned directly against a tree, took out her mobile phone, "Tell me after you finish picking it."
She came back to provide for the elderly, not to work.
Everyone: "…"
"..." Grandma Liu let out a sigh of relief, turned her head and said to them, "Then let's pick them together! Go back and weigh them after picking them."
"good."
Everyone has no opinion.
It’s past five o’clock now, and the sky is still bright, but we have to hurry up, it’s going to get dark after six o’clock.
Although some fruits are too high to be picked, some fruits are quite low. Given their height, they can pick them by stretching out their hands.
Everyone grabbed the plastic bags and began to pick them up, even Xu Liheng followed suit.
As for Xiao Yijing, she was playing Xiao Xiao Le by the side.
If she hadn't turned off the sound effects, she would definitely have drawn a lot of stares!
"Ouch!"
Lin Bo suddenly called out.
"What's wrong?"
Everyone was startled, and immediately gathered around, "Are you all right?"
Lin Bo bared his teeth, "It's nothing, just bitten by a mosquito."
Everyone looked down and saw a red envelope appeared on his arm.
Lin Bo cut out a "ten" on it with his nails, and took out the wind oil in his pocket to apply it, which made him feel more comfortable.
"There are so many mosquitoes here!"
After being reminded by Lin Bo, everyone realized that there are really a lot of mosquitoes here!
I didn’t see the big snakes, insects, rats and ants, but there were enough mosquitoes!
"Our preparations this time are still not sufficient."
They also thought of coming here suddenly, so naturally they didn't make much preparation.
Besides, in the summer, they can wear long trousers, but it is not easy to wear long-sleeved tops! It must be hot to death?
Moreover, even if you wear long sleeves, you can’t stop the attacks of these mosquitoes. After all, you still have your face and neck exposed!
Xu Liheng frowned, looked around, "I'll see if there is anything that can repel mosquitoes."
Just as he was talking, a scent of mint wafted over.
Turning her head to look, Xiao Yijing picked some mint leaves at some point and came over.
"Here, use this!"
Xiao Yijing put the mint leaves in her palm and rubbed them twice, patted the mint out of the juice, and then rubbed it directly on Lin Bo's arm.
"Wipe this and no mosquito will bite you!"
The scent of mint floats into the nose, which is quite refreshing and not unpleasant. But Lin Bo frowned, "Is this useful?"
"Of course." Xiao Yijing nodded, "The herbs here are very useful!"
Peppermint is also a kind of herb!
Xu Liheng nodded, "Peppermint also has the effect of repelling mosquitoes. There are mint leaves in our homemade mosquito repellent bag."
But he didn't say that simple mint leaves can't completely repel mosquitoes.
"Then I'll have some too!" The old lady hurriedly said, "Don't wait for the mosquitoes to bite me!"
As she spoke, she waved her hand again to drive away the flying mosquitoes.
"good!"
Xiao Yijing took another mint leaf and painted it on the old lady.
She moved quickly. After the old lady finished, she patted some mint leaves again, but this time she didn't apply it for others, but directly patted it on their hands, "You can apply it yourself."
Xia Zhengting and the three looked at the green juice on their hands, their expressions were hard to describe, but they still followed suit.
There are indeed too many mosquitoes here!
After finishing this, Xiao Yijing went back under the tree just now, "Keep going!"
Everyone: "..."
Forget it, I am too lazy to be angry with her.
But I have to say, after applying the mint leaves, the mosquitoes really didn’t get close!
Even Xu Liheng was shocked, "The effect of this mint leaf is too good!"
When they made mosquito repellent incense bags before, they used not only mint leaves, but also Atractylodes macrocephala cloves and mugwort leaves.
Only relying on mint leaves, there is no way to drive away mosquitoes!
However, today the mint leaves are too effective!
Not only no mosquitoes, but also no bugs!
No, because there are no distractions, everyone's work is smooth.
Soon, everyone's plastic bags are full.
"Let's go back first." The old lady said: "Take these back first, if you want more, come back tomorrow."
"good."
Everyone has no opinion.
Xiao Yijing is really too lazy, the old lady has no choice but to take the initiative to become her agent to manage this matter.
Hearing that she was going back, Xiao Yijing stuffed her phone into her pocket and smiled, "Okay, go back!"
Everyone: "..."
Even the way Xia Zhengting looked at Xiao Yijing couldn't describe it in words.
He has learned cooking from his father for many years and opened a restaurant by himself, so he has seen a lot, but he has never seen such a girl!
Before getting into the car, Xu Liheng picked some mint leaves.
The mint here grows very well, and as long as the root of the mint is not pulled out, it can grow forever, and the more you pick it, the better it will grow.
Xu Liheng fell in love with these mint leaves when he saw them!
It also has such an obvious mosquito repellent effect, he can't miss it of course!
Before the abstract, he also asked Xiao Yijing for his opinion.
Xiao Yijing didn't have any objections, so she just let him pick it up whenever he wanted.
Finally, everyone returned with full rewards!
Fortunately, it is a commercial vehicle, otherwise, so many fruits would have been too much!
Ask for recommendation tickets, comments, rewards, all kinds of requests~~The new book is open, don’t miss it when you pass by~~
