"I know, just follow me and pick some."

Chen Xinli replied with a smile.

After the rain, a lot of moss grew on the mountain, and under the low pine needles, there were many exposed bumps, some white, some yellow, and some brown.

"Wow, what a huge bunch of chanterelles."

Chen Xinli looked at the yellow expanse in the distance and suddenly felt in a good mood.

You just need to stir-fry the chanterelles with lard to remove the moisture, add salt and chopped green onions to season, and it will become a delicious home-cooked dish.

When Chen Xinli was a child, she often went up the mountain to pick mushrooms after a heavy rain. The most common mushrooms she picked on the mountain opposite her home were chanterelles.

Therefore, the most familiar.

"Ali, what is this black thing? Is it edible?"

Zhang Xiaodi pointed to a fungus that looked like an ear growing on a rotten piece of wood nearby.

Chen Xinli looked over and saw that the wood was densely covered with many black fungus.

"Of course, these are black fungus. Pick the big ones."

"Okay."

Brother Zhang was very happy.

A group of children were searching excitedly in the forest.

After a while, under Shen Xinli's command, each person filled a bamboo basket.

There were porcini, cyanotype mushrooms, and milk mushrooms. Shen Xinyu was lucky enough to find quite a few chicken mushrooms and matsutake mushrooms.

Picking mushrooms can be addictive.

Especially Shen Xinyu, after hearing about the rarity and deliciousness of the chicken mushroom, she was very proud and even pulled Shen Yushan to go up the mountain.

Chen Xinli felt helpless as she looked at her brothers' excited faces.

I had no choice but to follow him resignedly.

However, before I had taken two steps, I suddenly felt the weather change.

Even though this is a barren mountain with few tall trees, it still gives people a gloomy feeling.

"Why did it suddenly get dark?"

Little Brother Zhang was squatting on the ground, patting a palm-sized mushroom and said in amazement.

It was taught by Chen Xinli.

You need to tap the big mushrooms to knock off the fungus seeds on them so that they can grow more mushrooms in the future.

"Brothers, let's go back quickly."

Chen Xinli said in horror.

The sky was getting darker at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Not far away in the direction of Xi Xuancheng, the clouds became heavy and low, as if the entire sky was about to collapse.

And in the center, there was a cloud rolling like a dragon sucking water.

“Crack!”

A flash of lightning streaked across the distant sky, leaving behind a loud crashing sound, probably as if a branch of a tree had been broken.

"It's going to rain heavily. Let's go back to the cave."

As the eldest child in the group, Shen Jinshan immediately understood the seriousness of the situation when he saw his sister's anxious look.

The children did not dare to stay and quickly picked up the extra mushrooms in their clothes and hurried down the mountain.

Fortunately, there were many people and the cave was not far away, so the children finally returned to the cave before the heavy rain fell.

Old Mrs. Wu also brought back two large baskets of cleaned wild vegetables.

The wolfberry heads, amaranth, shepherd's purse, purslane, wild onions and wild garlic were all neatly bundled together, filling the basket to the brim.

Looking at my second uncle and the others, each of them brought back a large load of firewood.

Even Yu Liu brought back three wild rabbits from somewhere, and there were a lot of firewood and wild vegetables piled next to the carriage.

Inside the cave.

Shen Fuyou wiped the sweat from his face and murmured, "Luckily I came back in time, otherwise I would have been caught in the rain again today."

"Yes, I've never seen such heavy rain before. Is this going to be a disaster?"

Old Man Wu looked at the sky outside and said worriedly.

The group of men also subconsciously looked outside the cave.

The air was filled with rain and fog, and the huge raindrops hit the ground with a loud clattering sound. It was impossible to see what was happening five feet away.

"Let's eat first!"

Zhang and Wu had already cleaned the cave thoroughly.

Today we had vegetable dumpling soup.

One big bowl per person.

On ordinary days, being able to eat such a meal would be an extremely happy day.

But Chen Xinli felt very unhappy when she saw that the little flesh on her brothers' faces, which they had worked so hard to build up, had been lost again recently.

A Niang and Second Aunt had already hung the remaining chickens and rabbits on the wall of the cave to dry, obviously wanting to save them for food.

While drinking the dumpling soup, Chen Xinli was planning to take the eggs out of the space.

If it still rains in the afternoon, I can make some buns with mushroom, egg and wild vegetable fillings.

After finishing her meal, Chen Xinli quietly took out a basket of eggs and a cloth bag from the space and placed them next to the supplies on the cart.

Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Zhang just glanced at it and didn't say anything loudly.

Most of the food along the way was placed in Shen Xinli's space.

Otherwise, if there is heavy rain, it will easily get wet even with an oilcloth.

Today's dumpling soup was discovered by Wu when she was checking the cart. The small bag of flour had been half soaked by the rain.

Then he quickly cooked the meal and ate it.

For Chen Xinli, lunch was just enough to fill her stomach.

The conditions on the road of exile are difficult. If you can't eat something delicious, what is there to hope for in life?

Looking at the fresh and fragrant mushrooms and tender wild vegetables in her hands, the little girl sighed sincerely: How delicious these dumplings must be!

"Mother, Second Aunt, let's make some dumplings. These mushrooms and wild vegetables are perfect for making dumplings."

Chen Xinli dares to think!

But Wu and Zhang didn't dare to think about it.

The two were about to refuse.

My daughter pointed at the bamboo basket and whispered, "Today, we also picked up pheasant eggs in the mountains!"

Mrs. Wu looked at the basket of eggs in front of her, blamed her daughter, and tapped her on the head with her hand.
