Xiaoye led them out of the wild chestnut grove, back onto the main road, but continued to climb upward.
Fu Ying felt a bit puzzled. If the wild kiwifruit were even deeper in, why not pick the kiwifruit before the chestnuts? Were they afraid the fruit would get bruised? Unlikely; wild kiwifruit were so hard they wouldn't bruise easily. Carrying them like this while climbing the mountain was exhausting, and after walking uphill for so long, Fu Ying felt tired and thirsty, and wanted to take a break.
However, Fu Ying chose to stay silent for now; perhaps Xiaoye had his reasons.
