Si Ya opened her big black eyes and nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will search hard and give money to my sister-in-law if I find it."
In the following time, Ning Yue took her two nieces to dig into the pine and oak forests, and they really got a lot of matsutake. It wasn't until the sun turned overhead that they asked the two children to go down the mountain. The three of them
Most of the baskets on my back were filled with mushrooms.
When going down the mountain, the three of them did not forget that they were here to cut pigweed. They squatted into the grass with their sickles and began to cut the grass.
Ning Yuezhi was not very used to the scythe. When she was cutting the grass, she couldn't cut it as fast as her two nieces. Her calves were numb all the time she was squatting there. She was about to stand up and stretch her waist when she heard a flapping sound, followed by
With a clang, a pheasant knocked unconscious on a tree less than one meter away in front of her.
"Pheasant!" Sanya exclaimed.
Siya was one step faster than her. As soon as she threw the sickle, she ran to the tree and caught the pheasant. "I used to say that my sister-in-law was a lucky treasure. I still didn't believe it. Now my eyes have been opened!"
Ning Yue:...I almost forgot, she seems to be lucky~
Sanya's mouth opened in an O shape. Fortunately, she quickly recovered, took the pheasant in Siya's hand, and broke the neck of the pheasant with both hands, "Quickly, put it in the basket and eat it with grass.
If you cover it and someone sees it, you might get into a lot of trouble."
When the three of them arrived at the bottom of the mountain, the team members also finished work. When Zhang Damei saw his daughter coming back with a basket of things on her back, she immediately came out feeling distressed and said, "You kid, why don't you stay at home? You are doing the job of mowing the grass.
Just let Sanya and Siya go, and you won't be needed anywhere."
She reached out and took the basket off Ning Yue's shoulder. Unexpectedly, the basket was quite heavy.
Ning Yue did not fight with the old lady, but pulled the old lady and walked into the house. The two little girls also walked in carrying the basket without saying a word.
"Mistress, I'm so awesome, look at what this is?" Sanya said as she lifted the grass on the basket, revealing the fat pheasant inside.
Zhang Damei groaned, excitement in his voice, "Pheasant? Where did it come from?"
Sanya: "Nai, my sister-in-law is really lucky. We picked so many mushrooms. Not to mention, even the pheasants bumped right in front of my sister. We picked up a pheasant without any effort. You have to give it to me."
Sister-in-law, let’s make something good to eat!”
Zhang Damei asked excitedly what was going on. Sanya described the scene with her small mouth. Zhang Damei was surprised when she heard this. Du Ermin, who was resting in the room, even laughed out loud.
Three pleats, "I'll steam an egg custard for your sister-in-law, and let's stew the pheasant for dinner tonight."
Zhang Damei originally wanted to sell the chicken for money, but her wife spoke up, so she responded generously: "Okay, let's stew it for dinner at night. You must remember your sister-in-law, she is very lucky.
Man, be good to her, and you, the less fortunate, will be able to take advantage of your sister-in-law."
Sanya and Siya were used to hearing these words, so naturally they would not refute what the old lady said. In addition, today they saw with their own eyes the pheasant crashing into the tree in front of my sister-in-law. They also agreed with the words of my sister-in-law that she was blessed from the bottom of their hearts.
He nodded repeatedly.
"Don't worry, Mom, we will definitely treat my sister-in-law well. When we become successful in the future, we will still have to support my sister-in-law."
Zhang Damei nodded with satisfaction, and then told Si Ya: "Go to the kitchen and ask your third aunt to cook an egg custard for your sister-in-law."
Si Ya hurriedly let out a sigh, ran to the kitchen to deliver the message, and quickly ran back again.
Zhang Damei poured the mushrooms that the three of them carried back onto the kang and began to pick them, "Look, we have all gone up the mountain to pick mushrooms. When did we pick so many mushrooms? I will have good luck with you, my sister-in-law!"
"
Ning Yue: That’s because no one dares to go deep into the mountains for fear of encountering big beasts. She took her niece to places where few people go today, so she gained a lot.
The old man also came over to pick together. Ning Yue wanted to help, but was stopped by Zhang Damei, "You can rest, you are not tired from picking mushrooms. You can rest at home in the afternoon. You must be exhausted after going up the mountain for a long time."
I have never done any work in Yueyue. Today, I went to the mountains for a whole day and came back with so many mushrooms. What if I am tired?
Ning Yue: ...Really, she has never been so favored by anyone. Even Ning's father and mother in the previous life felt sorry for her, because she had lived in the Yan family for more than ten years, and they still had a sense of distance towards her.
Sanya and Siya didn't feel anything was wrong when they heard grandma's arrangement. Anyway, my sister-in-law usually didn't do anything at home, so they were really used to it.
"I see there are a lot of mushrooms on the mountain. I will take Sanya and Siya there in the afternoon and pick some wild vegetables. There is not much left at home."
Here, they would save a cellar of radishes, cabbage, and potatoes when winter comes, but they are all gone by now. His family is a hard-working family, and they plant vegetables wherever they have bigger buttocks and harvest them in winter.
There are so many, so I have been eating until now, but there are not even two Chinese cabbages left in the cellar, so I just used wild vegetables to replace them.
Sanya and Siya usually have to hunt pig grass. Except for Wuya, who is just over one year old, the original owner is the only idler in the family. Even the four-year-old Sanquan can pick up firewood or something. Ning Yue really doesn’t know how the original owner can stay idle.
of.
Zhang Damei didn't want her daughter to work so hard, but she couldn't refuse when her daughter took the initiative to work. "It's okay, but you can't be tired or walk too far. You have to come back as soon as it gets dark. It's not safe on the mountain after all."
Ning Yue naturally nodded in agreement.
Zhang Damei pulled out a handful of matsutake mushrooms from the hazel mushrooms and said, "Hey, these are matsutake mushrooms. Unfortunately, times are bad now. I don't know if I can take them out and exchange them for some money."
In the early years, the landowners in the village loved to eat this stuff. Someone in the village picked it up and sold it to his family. Later, when the family saw that the situation was not good, they fled overseas. Now that they have this good thing, they don’t know where to go.
Sell.
Ning Yue said: "Mom, I plan to go to the city tomorrow to try. Maybe I can meet someone who knows the goods and sell them!"
The three of them picked seven or eight kilograms of matsutake alone in the morning. This stuff is rich in nutrients and has the functions of strengthening the body, strengthening the stomach, relieving pain, regulating qi and reducing phlegm, and repelling parasites. If you meet someone who knows the stuff, they will definitely sell it for a good price!
Zhang Damei quickly picked out these matsutakes from the mushrooms. He was also thinking about it. His daughter had attended junior high school after all. She was the most educated in their family. If she said it could be sold, she would definitely be able to sell it!
"Okay, then you have to make a trip, but it doesn't matter if you can't sell it. The worst thing is that you can take it back and keep it for us to eat at home."
When it came to eating at home, Zhang Damei hissed in distress. The family was short of money, and someone was already looking at Da Ya in the old man's house. The family had to pay some dowry, and after solving Da Ya's matter, it was Dajiang's turn.
Although he is just fourteen, he will marry a wife in three or four years, which will be a huge expense.
