"Bullshit, Wang Cuiju, you dare to steal my business?! Be careful or I'll let my man and son beat you up!"

"Am I afraid of you?! Who doesn't have a man and a son?! Just try to touch me!"

When the two of them were arguing, they didn't forget to hold Ji He's hand. When the argument got heated, they all turned their heads and looked at Ji He, asking, "Girl! Who do you believe in and who do you want to go with?!"

Ji He: “…”

I won't go with anyone of you.

"Aunt, you are nice people. If possible, I would like to go with you." After Ji He finished speaking, the two aunts' faces softened. She added, "It's a pity that I can't be full by eating wild vegetables. I still want to eat meat."

"Eat meat...?" The aunt on the left looked at Ji He suspiciously. With his small arms and legs, he didn't look like someone who could eat meat. She subconsciously felt that this meat was not that kind of meat.

"Yes, I can eat enough meat and I don't have to fight for it. I can go home and sleep for the rest of the time." Ji He nodded generously with a smile on his face, as if this was some great thing.

At this time, an older woman walked by and saw the two men holding onto Ji He. She smiled and said, "Let go of her, her recipe is different from ours. She's the one that eats bugs!"

Seeing that the two aunts' faces were stiff, she laughed even more happily, and said with a gloating look: "You two are the only fools who want to recruit her! Who doesn't know that this girl started eating maggots a few days ago?! People may not even like those wild vegetables!"

"Yes, auntie, why do we need to dig wild vegetables when we have meat?" Ji He nodded beside them, grabbed the two people's clothes and was about to move forward, "Come on, let's go catch insects, they are high in protein, and you can catch a lot at a time, which is very convenient! Why should we fight with them for wild vegetables? We spend so much effort and get nothing! It's not worth it. We can also develop the breeding industry and reach the peak of our lives!"

Now it was the two aunts' turn to struggle desperately.

They really couldn't get over the psychological barrier. Thinking about the maggots wriggling on the ground, the acid in their stomachs couldn't help but rise up.

The auntie used her hands to pull Ji He's hands down, and kept saying, "Girl, let go first. I have something else to do today, so I won't go with you for now. We'll go another day."

The auntie next to her did the same thing. She pulled Ji He's hand down and kept making excuses: "Yes, I suddenly remembered that the faucet at home is still on. I have to go back. I won't go with you today. Let go, girl."

The two of them worked together to try to pull Ji He's hand down, but Ji He's hand looked weak, but was actually very strong. The two of them struggled and sweated, but failed to get it free.

Just when the two were getting extremely anxious, Ji He suddenly let go. The two of them didn't control the strength well and took several steps back.

Ji He's face was full of regret: "Okay, Auntie, I won't keep you two this time. When you want to eat, we can go catch them together."

"Okay, okay."

The two of them didn't hear clearly what Ji He said, and they ran away in a hurry as if someone was chasing them.

Ji He looked at the backs of the two people, blinked, turned around with a smile, and ran quickly to the agreed place.

It has been delayed for so long, if we don’t hurry up, it will be too late for the transaction!

After Ji He sent all the traders away, it was completely dark and she started to rush towards the bamboo forest.

There is a bamboo forest in the suburbs of their city. People usually go there for walks in the summer. I have never been there once, but I know the general direction.

Ji He was looking at the map on his mobile phone while jogging in that direction. After about 40 minutes, Ji He saw a dense bamboo forest in the distance.

There were quite a few pedestrians walking in groups of three or four on the road, probably going to the bamboo forest to pick wild vegetables and bamboo shoots.

Ji He calculated the time in his mind. In previous years, spring bamboo shoots were available around the end of March and the beginning of April. He just didn't know if there would still be bamboo shoots this year given the sun.

Ji He tightened his bag and walked towards the bamboo forest with a flashlight.

There were more people in the bamboo forest than when Ji He first saw them on the mountain that day. As soon as they entered the bamboo forest, some people began squatting on the ground and searching carefully with flashlights.

Ji He didn't join the crowd, but stood up and walked into the bamboo forest.

The bamboo forest was very large, and the deeper you went into it, the fewer people there were. Ji He found a suitable place, picked up a big knife, bent down and started chopping bamboo.

She didn't pick the particularly thick ones because those were too hard. Instead, she picked the slightly thinner ones, which she could cut off with just a few strong strokes.

The bamboo grows very long. After cutting it down, Ji He divides it into several sections in the middle and then ties them up with ropes.

It was not easy for her to come to the bamboo forest, so she had to cut more bamboo to make fences in the future.

I also want to find a few small bamboo seedlings and transplant them into the space.

An auntie who was looking for bamboo shoots and wild vegetables nearby saw Ji He chopping bamboo and came over to approach her: "Girl, why are you chopping bamboo? Can you eat it? Or can you sell it?"

"Hey! Don't mention it, auntie. Didn't someone break into the house and rob some time ago? He broke my sister's leg, and I thought of coming here to cut some bamboo to make a crutch." Ji He talked nonsense while working, and what he said was so sincere and full of emotion.

"Then why are you cutting these bamboos? Go cut some wood." The auntie was not to be fooled. She continued to inquire with a gleam in her eyes.

"I would like to go, but it's boring. I can't cut it." Ji He tied the bamboos and bent down to start cutting the second one. "This bamboo is not bad. I will tie it tightly with ropes. It will be strong! Hey, auntie, I see you are carrying a big bag. How many bamboo shoots can you dig?"

Ji He's men kept moving, and he began to take the initiative with his eloquence.

When the aunt heard this, the smile on her face froze. Just because she loved to inquire about news, that didn't mean she loved being inquired about by others.

He mumbled, "Nothing special, just dug it up."

"Auntie, you are so great. Can I come to you after I finish cutting the bamboo? You can find bamboo shoots and I will help you dig them. How about we each take half?" Ji He seemed not to sense the rejection in the aunt's words. He looked enthusiastic and kept promoting himself.

"Not very good. Well, girl, I have something to do. I'll leave first. You can chop here." The aunt rolled her eyes in the dark, turned her head and walked away quickly, not even wanting the land anymore, for fear that Ji He would get involved.

These bamboo shoots are hard to find, why should they be distributed?

Ji He saw his aunt's back, smiled, and lowered his head to continue concentrating on chopping bamboo.

Since she knew there were bamboo shoots in this place, Ji He took the time to look for them while she was cutting bamboo. She didn't have much hope at first, but she actually found one.

Ji He happily bent down, picked up the tools and started digging. He dug out the bamboo shoots in a few strokes.

This bamboo shoot is not too big, just a small one, probably not enough to make a dish.
