Suspicion

Hearing her ask, Feng Jiu recalled last night's scene and couldn't help but smile, saying, "When you went to the back of the house to pick vegetables yesterday, did you eat Rosary Peas?"
Ye Feifei was stunned, "Rosary Peas? What is that? I didn't eat it!"
"It's a kind of wild fruit, a tiny one only as big as a finger, red in colour." Feng Jiu said slowly, with a smile in her eyes.
Upon hearing this, Ye Feifei then suddenly realised, slapping one hand on her head, "Oh! That's the one that Master is talking about! Behind the house there were indeed a few children picking and eating those. They even handed some to me, saying that it was sweet and sour, I tasted some, they are quite appetising."
Quite appetising?
Feng Jiu raised her eyebrows, looked at her askance, and laughed lightly, "It is quite appetising, just that the aftertaste is a bit big."
"What aftertaste?" Ye Feifei asked in confusion.
