Remarrying With Mom: The Pampered Lucky Baby Has an All-Purpose Wish Notebook

Jiang Youran, reborn at the age of four, decided to marry her mother, Mrs. Su—who died in depression before she was 28 in her previous life—to her cousin, Duke Ping, who had always harbored feeling...

Chapter 97 What is a potato?

Xiao Youran then remembered the luck points she needed to accumulate, and called out cheerfully towards the direction of Dongshan Mountain, "Uncles and elders, there are fruits to pick over here!"

Soon, footsteps could be heard coming from that direction.

Soon, several figures came into their view.

One of the villagers laughed and said, "Following you guys is definitely the best way to make money! What did you find?"

Xiao Youran pointed to the heavy fruit on the tree and said, "Do any of you uncles and elders know how to pick these?"

The villagers squinted at the tree, staring at it for a long time before exclaiming, "These are wild chestnuts? How can these things grow here? We've never heard of chestnut trees growing in Wufeng County!"

The villagers had already broken off long branches from nearby trees to use as tools, chuckling, "That's why we say Xiao Youran is our little lucky charm! We've never been to Zhongshan before, and she discovered food as soon as she stepped in! These chestnuts are real food to fill our bellies!"

As he spoke, he used a branch to knock down the chestnuts from the tree.

Some people even started climbing the trees and grabbing the chestnut branches, shaking them violently.

Jiang Youchen and the others quickly jumped to avoid the fluffy fruits falling from above.

Xiao Youran smiled happily, "It was Baby who discovered it, you should all thank Baby!"

The child's innocent voice asked for their gratitude, but the villagers didn't find it strange at all; on the contrary, they thought this little baby was just too cute.

The villagers burst into laughter. "Of course we have to thank you! Little Fu Bao, why weren't you born into our family?"

Another spat, "You think you can be born into your family? None of your five daughters have given birth to someone as cute, beautiful, and blessed as Xiao Youran. What are you dreaming about?"

The villagers were overjoyed, teasing each other while patting the chestnuts off the trees.

Xiao Youran remembered that her great-aunt had said yesterday not to mention "Little Lucky Baby" anymore, and she wanted to remind them, but she didn't know how to say it.

Yun Tiankuang asked very shyly, "Uncles and elders, we can't reach the chestnuts on this tree, could we pick some from the ground?"

One of the villagers quickly said, "Oh! Of course you can, you can pick as many as you want. Not only did you find this tree, but now these three mountains belong to you. In fact, we're the ones who benefit."

Upon hearing this, Yun Manwan and Yun Tiankuang immediately bent down to pick up the chestnuts on the ground and threw them into the baskets on their backs.

Xiao Youran glanced at Xiao Bai and saw that Xiao Bai had turned and looked at her again before disappearing on the other side of the mountain wall.

She grabbed her brother's hand and ran towards that direction.

After turning around the mountain wall, you will suddenly find yourself in front of a huge cave.

The area in front of the cave was overgrown with weeds, and there was no sign of anyone having walked there.

Little White stood at the cave entrance, turning its head to howl at them.

Xiao Youran was about to step forward, but Jiang Youchen stopped her, looking hesitant as he asked, "We don't know what's in that cave, so maybe we shouldn't go in? Or maybe we can go in together next time when Fourth Aunt comes?"

Looking at the weeds that were taller than them, Xiao Youran felt a little scared. What if some big snake, small snake, raccoon dog, or black bear was hiding in the grass? That wouldn't be a good thing.

He could only swallow hard and say, "Next time is fine too..."

but……

She saw a dead old tree stump on the rock wall next to her, and the branch closest to the ground on the stump was covered with red mushrooms.

Xiao Youran's eyes lit up. "Brother, can we pick this branch and take it home? This mushroom is edible, and it's quite valuable if we dry it and sell it."

This is an extremely expensive red mushroom!

Jiang Youchen looked at the branch, which was thicker than his arm, and seemed to be having some difficulty. "How about... I go and borrow an axe from one of the uncles or elders outside?"

Xiao You nodded.

Jiang Youchen then ran out.

Xiao Youran quickly opened her notebook, "Please separate this branch from the tree stump."

She felt there was nothing wrong with the wish she made, but she didn't know in what way it would separate the branch covered with red mushrooms.

Surely he wouldn't pull out a chainsaw or something from his sleeve?

But even if we had a chainsaw, there was no electricity!

As I was thinking this, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck from the clear sky.

It struck the withered tree stump directly.

It just so happened to hit the junction of the branches.

The branch she wanted fell onto the pile of weeds in an instant, and... not a single red mushroom fell off, it was completely intact.

Xiao Youran was shocked: ...

Can you please stop dropping bombshells all of a sudden?

I am so surprised.

How is this not outside the scope of business?

She patted her chest, picked up the branch, and turned around the mountain wall. She saw Jiang Youchen running towards her in a panic with two uncles and elders.

What was that sound just now?

"Did it thunder?"

"It looks like lightning. Is it a bolt from the blue in this clear sky?"

"Impossible! Our little Fu Bao is right there, how could there be such a bolt from the blue!"

When they saw Xiao Youran appear, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao You Ran: ……

I'm sorry, this bolt from the blue was really my doing...

Jiang Youchen saw the tree branch his sister was holding and fell silent again...

As they descended the mountain, Xiao Youran carried Xiaobai, Jiang Youchen carried the withered tree branch covered in red mushrooms, and Yun Manwan and Yun Tiankuang carried two large baskets full of chestnuts. Several villagers also carried a basket down the mountain, intending to return after taking the chestnuts home.

The wild chestnut tree was very tall and produced a great deal of fruit. The fruit was already ripe, and the group of people were in high spirits, chatting and laughing as they descended the mountain.

As they walked down the mountain, Xiao Youran asked, seemingly casually but curiously, "Uncles and elders, this year's crops failed completely. Can we plant something else?"

One villager laughed, "Little Youran doesn't know, nothing grows well here in winter, so nobody grows grain in winter."

“Potatoes will do! Potatoes can grow in winter too,” Xiaoyou said innocently.

The villager asked curiously, "What is a potato?"

Xiao Youran's heart skipped a beat. No wonder he didn't know what potatoes were when he dictated the recipe to Shen Zhangyu last time. It turned out that potatoes hadn't been introduced to the Great Zhou yet.

I wonder if this magical little notebook can conjure up a few potatoes for her?

She chuckled, "Potatoes are a magical food! You can grow two kinds a year. If you plant them now, you can harvest them next summer."

The villager burst into laughter, "You little girl know quite a lot. Not only do you know what potatoes are, which even we peasants don't know, but you also know what 'two kinds a year' means?"
