Chapter 10 - Alone on the Mountain

”I have to go back. Your aunt and your uncle went to work in the fields. ”If they find out that I'm coming over again, your aunt will come looking for trouble again,” the old man picked up his walking stick and left.

”Grandmother, I'll come see you another day.” Mo Xiao Yan said.

”Xiao Yan, I'll go cook. You stay in the courtyard for a while.” Then, he ran into the kitchen without waiting for Mo Xiao Yan's reply.

Mo Xiao Yan sat for a while as he felt bored, so he decided to take a walk around the mountain.

”Second Sister, I'll go out and take a look. I'll be back in a while.” Mo Xiao Yan said from the kitchen door.

”Alright, then don't go too far. We'll be eating soon. Remember to come back early.” Mo Xiao Xia said as she was busy with the work on her hands.

”Mn, I got it, Second Sister.”

Mo Xiao Yan saw that there was a small basket on the corner, so he walked over and carried the basket on his back.

At this time of the day, he basically cooked at home, and did not meet any passersby on the way. They quickly entered the mountains and discovered there were grapes in front of them. Their size was much smaller than the ones sold outside.

”Pah pah...” ”I'm so sore.” He had never eaten wild grapes before, but he didn't expect it to be so sour! His saliva was going to come out from his mouth.

After walking for a while, he found that the road was not easy. Although he didn't go far, there were some thorns and branches on the road. He was already out of breath from just using those things. It seemed like he still lacked exercise.
