Hearing what Granny Fan said, the people around looked at her basket, which indeed contained only a few weeds. Then they looked at Han Yiyi's basket, and what they saw made some people exclaim in surprise.

"Oh dear, why is this basket full of snake skin mushrooms? You can't eat these, they're poisonous, eating them can kill you..."

When Granny Fan heard the man's exclamation, she initially thought he was convinced that Han Yiyi had stolen her mushrooms. But after hearing what he said next, she couldn't help but peek into Han Yiyi's basket. Sure enough, it was full of snake-skin mushrooms, not the ones she had picked.

The reason why people here call bamboo fungus "snake skin fungus" is because its shape is somewhat similar to dried white snake skin with a net-like appearance. The reason why it is said to be poisonous is probably because of its shape, and this has been misrepresented over time.

When everyone saw that Han Yiyi's basket was full of snake-skin mushrooms, and because Granny Fan had just said that Han Yiyi's basket was full of mushrooms that she had stolen, everyone looked at Granny Fan with puzzled expressions.

One of them asked, "Fan family, you said you picked these snake-skin mushrooms? What are you doing picking these things? Don't you know they're poisonous and can't be eaten...?"

Seeing that someone was questioning it, others chimed in. Little did Granny Fan know that Han Yiyi's basket was full of snake mushrooms. She had clearly spent half the morning picking mushrooms and putting them in the basket, so how could they have disappeared all of a sudden? Looking up, she saw Han Yiyi looking at her with a mocking expression, so she pointed at Han Yiyi and said.

"I didn't pick these up. I must have picked them up and hidden them for me, you little whore. Give them back to me right now..."

Everyone looked at Granny Fan with disapproval. When Han Yi heard Granny Fan's accusations, he wiped his eyes with his sleeve before cautiously speaking.

“Aunt Fan, I told you, I didn’t take your mushrooms. Why are you framing me? I picked them myself. When I was in the Fan family, I was your daughter-in-law, and it was one thing for you to bully me. But now I’ve been divorced by your Fan family and I’m no longer a member of your family. Why are you still slandering me…” she said, crying to the people around her.

"Aunties and grandmas, I really didn't push her or take her mushrooms. I just picked up some mushrooms because it was getting late and I had to go back to cook for my two children. When I passed by here, I saw her fall on the ground and couldn't get up after several attempts, so I thought I would go over and help her up. I didn't expect that she would not only accuse me of pushing her, but also falsely accuse me of stealing her mushrooms..." After saying this, she covered her face and burst into tears.

Those present already had a bad impression of Granny Fan, and now they all believed Han Yiyi's words. Seeing Han Yiyi crying so sadly, some of them rushed forward to comfort her and reminded her.

"Alright, Han girl, we all believe what you say, but you absolutely cannot eat this snake mushroom you picked. It's been crawled on by a poisonous snake, so throw it away quickly. I picked up quite a lot here, so I'll give you some to cook for the children at noon..."

The speaker was Granny Wang, a kind-hearted woman. People in Zhushan Village are generally very simple and honest, and women like Granny Fan and Granny Huang are one in a hundred.

As Aunt Wang spoke, she was about to throw away the bamboo fungus in Han Yiyi's basket.

Han Yiyi couldn't care less about pretending to be pitiful or weak at this moment, and hurriedly reached out to stop them, saying something.

“Auntie, this thing is actually called bamboo fungus. It’s not poisonous. I saw it before at the Yunlai Restaurant in town, and I also heard from Manager Tong there that it’s not only delicious but also very nutritious. That’s why I thought of picking some to take home and try today…”

Everyone knew that Han Yiyi had bought braised food in town a few days ago. Seeing her speaking so earnestly and hearing her mention the owner of Yunlai Restaurant in town, they began to have doubts.

However, everyone's baskets are already full of mushrooms, and there are plenty of edible mushrooms on the mountain, so there's no need to risk picking this kind to eat.

Seeing that Han Yiyi knew what was going on, the others stopped trying to persuade her. Han Yiyi, seeing that they didn't believe her, stopped explaining further, thinking to herself, "Heh heh, fine, if no one picks them up, then they're all mine..."

Everyone was talking to Han Yiyi, so no one paid any attention to Granny Fan, who was still crying and wailing beside her.

Old Mrs. Fan couldn't understand how the person who had just been stuffing mud into her eyes could suddenly become so aggrieved and pitiful. She also couldn't understand when the soft persimmon who used to tolerate her being useless had changed like this. Old Mrs. Fan couldn't find the right words to describe Han Yiyi at this moment.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Granny Fan raised her voice and shouted at Han Yiyi.

"You little whore, hurry up and give me my mushrooms! You're the one who stole them! And all of you, are you all blind? What's the point of talking to a useless abandoned woman? My son is the only scholar in Zhushan Village, and he'll become the top scholar in the imperial examinations in the future..."

When Han Yi heard Granny Fan bring up her son, who was a scholar, again, he couldn't help but sneer inwardly. A scholar was nothing compared to the top scholar...

Hearing Granny Fan's words, everyone felt even more disgusted with her. Just because she had a scholar's son, she acted as if the family had produced an emperor, always arrogant and looking down on everyone...

However, no one dared to say these words aloud; they could only complain in their hearts. But ignoring her was still an option. It was getting late, so everyone got up and headed down the mountain.

Seeing that everyone had come down the mountain, Han Yiyi turned to look at Granny Fan, but her eyes were full of mockery. Not only that, Han Yiyi even opened her mouth in her direction to spite her.

When Granny Fan saw that no one was paying attention to her and Han Yiyi was giving her a look, she was so angry that her vision blurred. However, when she saw what Han Yiyi said to her, she rolled her eyes and fainted.

It turned out that Han Yiyi, in order to spite Granny Fan, directly told her that she was the one who took the mushrooms. However, when Han Yiyi said this, she did not make a sound, but only opened her mouth to Granny Fan.

Old Mrs. Fan was so angry and upset, and she felt so wronged, that she fainted from anger.

Seeing that Granny Fan had fainted, no one wanted to pay attention to her. Han Yiyi didn't care at all and went straight down the mountain, as she had things to do that afternoon.

Finally, an elderly woman who was a distant relative of the Fan family, worried that the person might die on the mountain, thought of going to the Fan family to ask Fan Ting to come and take the person back. However, when she got down the mountain, she found out that Fan Ting was not at home at all. So she asked her family to help send the person back to the Fan family.
