Although they were born on the same day, Zhou Wufu was the youngest and also the one who loved to be pampered the most.

We must hurry up and plant the crops, otherwise we won't be able to grow any food if we miss the season. We also need to plant sweet potatoes on the few plots of land we cleared behind the house as soon as possible.

These sweet potato seeds were brought back from a very distant place by merchants who went to sea a couple of years ago. I heard that they weren't available in the north yet. Two years ago, Yegou Village got some sweet potato seedlings, grew sweet potatoes, and found that they were high-yielding and drought-resistant.

Although eating too much can cause flatulence, as long as it fills your stomach, why bother with such elegance? Sweet potato seedlings are easy to grow; even when the ground is dry, the roots remain in the soil, and they can be turned over and revived after rain.

"Xingxing will go out with her brothers later. When you get there, find a shady place to rest. You're still young, so don't do any work."

After saying that, he warned the five boys, "You must not go into the deep mountains, or wild animals will carry you away."

“Mom, we’ll just gather firewood on the outskirts. We also need to protect our little sister,” Zhou Dafu replied with a mature air.

So Xingxing went up the mountain to gather firewood, surrounded by her five older brothers. Along the way, her brothers taught her to recognize wild vegetables and picked wild fruits for her to eat.

"It's delicious! What is this?"

“These are wild raspberries. There are also myrtle berries on the mountain, which are delicious. The ones on the outskirts have all been picked clean. I know a place where there are a lot of them, but no one has discovered them.” Zhou Erfu winked mischievously.

"Erfu, you're running off into the mountains again. If your mother finds out, she'll definitely give you a beating," Zhou Dafu said disapprovingly.

"Big brother, please don't tell Mother, I'll never do it again." Zhou Erfu was always the quickest to admit his mistakes, but he would do it again next time.

Her eyes sparkled, and there were many wild fruits on the mountain. She thought she could pick wild vegetables and fruits to supplement her family's income.

Suddenly she saw many vines twining in the bushes beside her, covered with small yellow and white flowers, so Xingxing stood still.

Images flashed through her mind. She felt that these little flowers were familiar, but she had never seen them before. Why did she have this strange feeling?

"Does Xingxing like those little flowers? Let me pick a few for you," Zhou Wufu volunteered.

"Xingxing likes these flowers, we should pick them all and take them home." She didn't know why, but a voice in her head seemed to be urging her to do so.

These little flowers seem like they could be sold for money.

Thinking of this, she was about to pick the flowers herself, but how could the five Fus let her do the work? Three Fus stayed behind to watch the stars, while the other four rushed forward and picked all the flowers in no time.
