Upon hearing about fish, Luo Taohua's eyes lit up, and she nodded without hesitation, "Where is the wild hemp? Third sister-in-law, just tell me, and I'll go get it."

"Let's go help too!" Lu Jiaren and the other children shouted after hearing this.

Jiang Tangtang had watched videos of mahjong and felt that children could handle it perfectly well. So she nodded and said, "Alright, you all go and help."

Upon hearing this, Xie Ziang also brought several older children and followed them.

The food they ate was all brought back by Lu Shiyan. He had no other way to repay the Lu family, so he could only do as much as possible to help them.

Jiang Tangtang didn't stop her; it's always better to be grateful than to be ungrateful.

The patch of wild hemp was located on the left side of the hillside upstream of the river, with lush green grass along the riverbank. Jiang Tangtang simply brought a few pieces of it along with her.

Today, Lu Chenyan, with his short legs, also went on an adventure with his mother.

Seeing him struggling to catch up with everyone with his short legs, Jiang Tangtang chuckled and pinched his little face before lifting him onto the pony.

Although Lu Chenyan spoke that day, he is usually not talkative.

He smiled at his mother, revealing an adorable smile, and then pointed to the large horse next to him, indicating that Jiang Tangtang could ride a horse as well.

"You ride! Mother wants to walk." Jiang Tangtang was indeed someone who hated hardship and fatigue.

But play is an exception.

Although it hasn't rained yet, the climate here isn't as dry as outside because of the river in the valley.

The key is that because of this river, the surrounding vegetation grows very lushly.

With blue skies, white clouds, a clear stream, and all sorts of wildflowers and grasses, it's no exaggeration to say that the scenery is picturesque.

Jiang Tangtang only regretted not having a phone so she could take lots of pictures in such a beautiful environment.

While traveling and enjoying the beautiful scenery, Jiang Tangtang and her group soon arrived at the field of wild hemp.

"My God! What a huge toad!" Luo Taohua reacted quickly, slamming her basket down and catching the toad right there in the wild hemp field.

She exclaimed excitedly, "Jiaren, quickly start a fire, let's roast this toad!"

Jiang Tangtang: "..."

It's simply unbearable to look at.

"Sister-in-law, this is poisonous."

Luo Taohua was already swallowing hard. "It's okay. We often catch them and eat them when we see them. As long as we peel off the skin, they won't kill us."

Jiang Tangtang ignored her and started playing with her scanning system. Soon, she discovered a treasure trove that she had previously overlooked.

"Then you can cook the toads here, sister-in-law! I'll take the kids for a walk over there."

Luo Taohua didn't take it seriously and urged her son to hurry up and get started.

Lu Jiaren hesitated for a moment and whispered, "Mother, is Third Aunt unhappy? Why don't we cut the hemp first, kill this toad, tie it up, and take it back for everyone to eat together?"

Luo Taohua was a little reluctant. If they ate it now, she could get a large leg of meat if they shared it with her and her two children. But if they took it home and so many people ate it together, how much meat would she get?

In the end, all I smelled was the pungent smell of meat.

“I caught it, why is she unhappy? Hurry up, just make sure we don’t delay the killing of the wild horse.”

Lu Jiaren couldn't persuade his mother, so he had no choice but to listen to her.

After figuring out how to harvest wild hemp, Xie Ziang led a group of children to quickly harvest it.

On the other side, after Jiang Tangtang led her people through a mountainous area, they unexpectedly discovered a pond in a mountain valley.

Not only was there a large patch of lotus growing in the pond, but there were also several wild ducks swimming around.

Looking at the plump wild ducks, Jiang Tangtang only regretted not bringing Lu Shiyan along.

With her skills, there's no way she could catch those wild ducks.

While you can't catch wild ducks, collecting their eggs is no problem.

With the scanning system, Jiang Tangtang found it very easy to pick up duck eggs. She didn't have to painstakingly dig through the weeds or search everywhere; she could just follow the system's prompts and pick them up directly.

Perhaps because there were many wild ducks, and because no one had come to collect them before, Jiang Tangtang had a very fruitful harvest, collecting half a basket of duck eggs in just a short time.

Besides the wild duck eggs on the shore, there were also some in the lake.

Jiang Tangtang's period isn't over yet, so she's not really suited to going into the water.

But seeing the system markings indicating places with wild duck eggs in the lake, she felt it was a pity.

Based on the system's markings, there are at least several dozen wild duck eggs in the lake.

Forget it, I'll bring the fishing net over to haul it in a few days once it's finished!

Jiang Tangtang picked a large lotus leaf by the lake and put it on her head, then picked another one and covered her son's head with it. "Let's go! I'll boil some duck eggs for you when we get back."

Lu Chenyan looked at her, then tugged at Jiang Tangtang's hand, gesturing for her to squat down. Jiang Tangtang was a little confused, but she still squatted down.

After Jiang Tangtang squatted down, he tucked the small flower he had just picked into her hair bun.

"For your mother?" Jiang Tangtang asked with a smile.

Lu Chenyan nodded and gave a soft "hmm".

"Thank you, son, you're such a good boy~" Jiang Tangtang kissed him on the cheek, stood up, took his hand with one hand and carried the basket with the other as they walked back.

When the mother and son returned to the wild hemp field, Xie Zi'ang had already led a group of children to finish cutting the wild hemp.

To express their gratitude to Lu Shiyan, the group of children worked with all their might, and each of them was covered in sweat.

After finishing the toad meat, Luo Taohua became lazy again and dawdled over her work.

Seeing Jiang Tangtang return, she nervously went to greet her. Her eyes lit up when she saw the eggs in Jiang Tangtang's basket.

"Third sister-in-law, where did you find so many eggs? They're green-shelled and so big, they must be duck eggs, right? I saw some wild scallions by the roadside, I'll go pick some. Wild scallions stir-fried with duck eggs, it'll be absolutely delicious."

As Luo Taohua spoke, her mouth was practically watering.

Jiang Tangtang glanced at her and the group of children and knew that her sister-in-law's laziness had returned.

She doesn't indulge her.

Jiang Tangtang's gaze fell on a bundle of wild hemp in front of her and said, "Sister-in-law, you've been busy eating toad meat all day, haven't you? These wild duck eggs are for the people who worked hard to help me cut the hemp."

"Nothing much..." Luo Taohua said awkwardly, "It only took a little time just now, but you'll still need me later, won't you? What can these kids do? Do they know how to play hemp? How to twist hemp rope?"

Jiang Tangtang laughed and said, "What's so difficult about that? I know all of these! I can just teach them."

Luo Taohua was furious, wanting to vent her anger but not daring to. In the end, she could only suppress her frustration, work hard, and try to please Jiang Tangtang.

Although she was lazy, she was quick at working and soon peeled a large bundle of hemp.

Jiang Tangtang wasn't idle either. She searched for wild vegetables in the system and dug up a lot of wild garlic, purslane, and other wild vegetables with a hoe.

By the time Luo Taohua and the others had peeled all the wild hemp, Jiang Tangtang had already dug two full baskets of wild vegetables.

Luo Taohua was stunned when she saw the wild vegetables in the basket.

I never expected my delicate sister-in-law to be so capable.
