Jiang Lin walked ahead, while Yu Xiaolian skipped and jumped behind him. Soon, they arrived at the mountain bend by the woods.
Here, the sandy land was abundant, and the scorching sun baked the sand, making it hot. Yu Xiaolian's little cloth shoes stepped on the hot sand, warming the soles of her feet.
Jiang Lin pointed at the patch of red in the soil ditch and asked, "Look, is this the goji berries you wanted to pick?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Yu Xiaolian happily ran over.
Without hesitation, she jumped into the ditch and started picking the goji berries without saying a word. The berries were clustered and easy to pick, and with Jiang Lin helping her, they soon filled a whole basket.
Jiang Lin asked, "You're picking these to sell at the town's medicine hall?"
Yu Xiaolian nodded, "I just wanted to give it a try, not sure if it'll work."
Jiang Lin helped lift the basket of goji berries up.
He then climbed up and pulled Yu Xiaolian out of the ditch.
