Chapter 31: Continue to sell mushrooms

The bamboo shoots were sold out every time for several days in a row, and a lot of the dried bamboo shoots were also sold.

It has rained a lot in the past few days, and with Ye Zhen's daily practice, the vitality and spiritual energy have become more abundant, and many wild treasures have emerged around the nearby mountains and forests.

It’s time to pick mushrooms!

Mother Ye and Grandma Ye followed the village group to pick mushrooms every day, and they would carry back several baskets every day.

Ye Zhen took photos and put them on the shelves without stopping, and then posted an announcement in the group, saying that good things were on the shelves.

As expected, many people came to inquire about the matter. After Ye's father classified the mushrooms into different types, many people placed orders one after another.

Looking at the order situation in the background, Dad Ye was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

After Ye Zhen's hard work, the service scope of the mini program has been further expanded, and the traffic is quite considerable, so there is no need to worry about selling the things in the village.

Grandpa Ye helped weigh and sort the mushrooms in the yard. Some diligent villagers came early to help pack and package them, and some sold them to Ye Zhen.

There are also many outsiders coming to buy mushrooms from their neighborhood, and the prices are all about the same. Expensive mushrooms are usually purchased by fixed people, and there are fewer people in the village who come to Ye Zhen's house.

But Ye Zhen's family still harvested a lot of mushrooms.

The big yard is bustling every day with people coming and going.

………

Mother Zhou went to pick up another express delivery. The ice in the plastic bag was still frozen. When she opened the package, she saw neatly arranged mushrooms inside.

She happily asked her son to help clean up while she prepared to cook. The mushrooms smelled so delicious that she couldn't wait to eat them.

After a while, the dish was ready.

Considering that his son would feel uncomfortable with the smell, Zhou Hong filled a bowl with mushrooms, leaned in to smell it, and the smell was so strong that he held back his saliva and brought it to the children's table.

"Binbin, have a bite." Zhou Hong picked up a piece and tried to put it to his son's mouth.

"I don't want to..."

Binbin raised his eyes, twitched his nose, and the words of rejection stopped at his lips.

It smells pretty good. I took a tentative bite and it was smooth, tender and delicious!

As soon as the mushrooms entered my mouth, the feeling of hunger instantly came over me, and my stomach made a "gurgling" sound from time to time, as if its intestines were twisting and clamoring for food.

"Dad, I'm hungry." Binbin bit off the whole thing in one bite, took the chopsticks himself, and carried the small bowl to the dining table.

"Okay, Dad will serve it to you." Zhou Hong scooped a spoonful of rice, but before he could pass it over, Binbin had already eaten several pieces with his chopsticks.

Zhou's mother was pleasantly surprised. "Come, let me serve you some. Eat more. Your face has become thinner these past two days."

"Grandma, I want mushroom soup!"

"Okay, I've prepared it for you. Take your time to eat! Don't be impatient!"

Mother Zhou relaxed her frown. Fortunately, she bought a few more pounds because it was cheap. Now her grandson can eat.

By the time Zhou Hong and his wife sat down, they had eaten most of the soup bowl, but their son was still chewing in big mouthfuls.

Everyone finally felt relieved and could eat well!

Being able to eat is a blessing!

Zhou Hong's wife also picked up a piece of mushroom to taste. Seeing her son eating it with relish, she wanted to try how delicious it was.

Ugh——!!!

After a while, the family finished eating with relish. Zhou Hong happily poured the last drop of soup into the bowl and licked his lips.

"Mom, do you have any more? Do you want to fry another one?"

Zhou Hong's wife also stared at Zhou Ma expectantly, both pairs of eyes sparkling.

Mother Zhou: "..."

Stir-fry, there are still a few pounds, eat enough!

…………

The same thing happened in another community. Wang Guiying got up early, diced the mushrooms she bought, mixed them with meat stuffing and seasonings, and rolled out the dumpling wrappers. Soon, plump and round dumplings were ready.

By the time the dumplings were cooked and served, her son had already gotten up and was ready for work.

"Hey, breakfast is ready, eat it first!" Wang Guiying stopped her son. How could he not eat breakfast?

"Mom, I'm not going to eat yet. I have to attend a morning meeting today, so I need to arrive early. It's too late to wait."

He was also helpless, but today's morning meeting was very important, and the company leaders had clearly requested that they not be late or leave early, and would not accept leave during the meeting.

"Then I'll pack it in a lunch box and we can eat it after the meeting!"

As she spoke, Wang Guiying hurried to the kitchen, found a large insulated box, put the still steaming dumplings in it, poured a little light soy sauce and balsamic vinegar on them, added a spoonful of chili, packed them up and brought them to her son.

"Then I'll leave!" After saying that, he looked at his watch and hurried towards the elevator.

…………

After the meeting, Wang Guiying's son was already growling with hunger. Sitting at his workstation, he took out the breakfast prepared by his mother. As soon as he opened it, a rich aroma wafted through the office area.

The colleague next to him sniffed and asked curiously:

"Who brought the food? It smells so good!"

"It tastes like mushrooms and vinegar. Who's eating dumplings?"

A colleague smelled the scent and came to the seat of Wang Guiying's son and put one hand on his shoulder.

"Manager Liu, what's delicious to eat? It's not good to eat alone!"

Wang Guiying's son was startled and looked up. It was Director Li of the Project Department. Just as he was about to say that they wanted to eat somewhere else, he heard what the other party said.

He breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the other party was going to criticize him for not being able to eat in the office.

I asked politely, "Mr. Li, these are the dumplings my mother made. Would you like to try some?"

"Then I'll try it."

Mr. Li was just waiting for this sentence. He had a keen nose and could tell at the first sniff that the dumpling filling was fresh and clean. He had been wanting to eat it all the way here.

I picked up one with chopsticks and dipped it in vinegar, and put it in my mouth. The next moment, my pupils trembled!

--fresh!

It’s fragrant and delicious, so delicious that it makes your soul leave your body.

I picked up one unconsciously, and then realized it was someone else's breakfast. I felt a little embarrassed. Just as I was about to speak, Wang Guiying's son said tactfully:

"You can eat as much as you want. I have a big box here!"

Hearing this, Mr. Li shamelessly picked up another one.

——It’s so delicious!

The two of them sat there and shared a large box of dumplings. Mr. Li rubbed his stomach comfortably and asked kindly:

"Manager Liu's cooking skills are great, and the mushrooms here are especially good. Where did you buy them?"

Wang Guiying's son was stunned for a moment, then immediately responded: "Mr. Li, these are the wild mushrooms my mother bought. We still have a lot at home. Bring them over tomorrow."

Mr. Li was satisfied with the other party's suggestion and said, "There is a project in the south of the city recently. The company needs a person to follow up on the project there. I think you are a good choice."

Wang Guiying's son was almost stunned by this unexpected surprise. This project has a huge amount of funds and is a key project of the company. The project department needs their department to be responsible for one of the modules to connect. As long as the work is completed well, there will be a lot of bonus.

He had been competing with two other department heads all along, and after today's morning meeting, he still thought his chances were slim.

I never expected that a box of dumplings would be such a big help!

Thank you, my dear mother!

…………

Recently, Ye's mother and grandmother have been going up the mountain every day, and the soil has almost been scraped clean.

"Tell me, why don't these mushrooms grow a little more?"

I searched for a long time with Grandma Ye today but didn't find much. What's missing is not mushrooms, but her money!

Ye Zhen saw that even the mushroom that looked like a small bud was actually a baby mushroom!

Ye Zhen was silent after seeing this.

…

The next morning, Ye Xiaodi was going to school and put a lot of bags into Ye Zhen's car.

Ye Zhen took a look and saw a large bag of strawberries, strawberry jam, dried strawberries, figs, a box of washed blueberries, pickled bamboo shoots, some side dishes made by Ye's mother, and snacks bought by Ye Zhen...

Is this a school? This might be a small shop!

I quietly took away the cell phone that Ye Xiaodi hid in his backpack. He is in the third year of junior high school now, so he should avoid touching this thing.

At worst, she can visit the school every two days. Now that she has a car, it is convenient and there is no need to bring the phone with her.

Little brother Ye, who was moving things, didn't know that his source of happiness had been taken away by Ye Zhen, and he was still happily holding the extra ten yuan given by Ye's mother!

Ye Zhen shook his head, what a fool.
