Chapter 224 The Girl Picking Mushrooms

Wen Ran's trip gave Xiao's mother enough encouragement.

Therefore, after she left, Xiao's mother dragged the lady with triangular eyes into a hearty fight.

Of course, we won.

The lady with the triangular eyes is just very mean with her mouth, but her physique is not strong at all.

She was so skinny that a slap from Xiao's mother was as powerful as a palm-leaf fan and could make the old woman suffer a beating.

On the way back, Xiao Chenxing plucked the grass leaves off his mother's body while complaining, "Mom, people become more stable as they get older.

Why, when it comes to you, it's the other way around?"

"Hey!"

Mother Xiao brushed off the dust on her body and said unyieldingly, "How come it's the other way around? The older I get, the more straightforward I become.

If I were younger, I would not have dared to do this. I would not have been able to do it even if I had to save my dignity."

"Alright, alright," Father Xiao took off the grass leaves on Mother Xiao's head, and couldn't suppress the smile on his face, "I know you are powerful now."

"snort!"

Mother Xiao glanced at Father Xiao, "You want me to say it? Everyone has seen it!"

When she was young, although she had a hot temper, she was particularly concerned about her reputation and was often bullied.

Father Xiao did protect her, but it was useless.

While he was protecting someone, he ended up with one more person to be scolded.

I work during the day and cry in bed at night.

Later, he couldn't bear being bullied anymore, so he just went for it.

Now, the sky is clear, the rain has stopped, and life has become comfortable.

Thinking about the past, Xiao's mother felt a little sad.

Those days, I really can’t look back on them, it makes me cry just thinking about them.

When we arrived at Wen Ran's house, the food was still steaming hot.

After eating and drinking, everyone got together to clean up the dishes and then went home to have a good sleep.

When people are extremely tired, they fall asleep as soon as they touch the pillow.

The night is quiet and silent.

The fine and dense rain fell, moistening the vast land.

When the sun was rising, the clouds dispersed and the rain stopped.

It looks like this year is going to be a good year with good weather and good harvests.

…

On the third day of spring plowing, Wen Ran's progress in catching cattle was still a big failure.

Just when she was wondering whether to continue to live in the mountains, she heard Hongguo exclaim, "Sister, it's raining outside."

Wen Ran scratched his head, "Is it still raining during the day?"

"Um."

Wen Ran got off the kang and looked out through the crack in the door.

Heavy drizzle.

It’s raining fast and heavily.

But such rain did not stop everyone from going to the fields to work. Hongguo took a look, muttered to herself, and got dressed, then put on her straw raincoat and prepared to go to the fields.

Even so, she did not forget to remind Wen Ran, "Sister, it's raining, it's okay to work in the fields, but it's too dangerous to go up the mountain.

When I was on the mountain before, it rained continuously and there was a possibility of landslides. At that time, mud, rocks, weeds, and trees would slide down together..."

Not to mention humans, even large wild boars and bears would be doomed to die if they encountered such a thing.

Just thinking about that scene makes people feel creepy.

Wen Ran nodded and lay back on the kang comfortably, "Don't worry, I'm a lazy person who doesn't move if I can.

There is no way I will let go of this God-given opportunity to slack off! Don't worry!"

Hongguo was happy, said hello to Wen Ran, and left wearing her straw raincoat.

At the same time, the Xiao family's situation was not very good.

The main reason is that Xiao’s mother is in a bad mood.

Looking at the continuous rain outside, she was lost in thought.

At the dinner table, Xiao Chenxing whispered, "Dad, what should I do? Otherwise, I won't go to work today."

"It's okay, believe your mother." Father Xiao's expression was also heavy. "So many years have passed, your mother will get over it sooner or later."

Xiao Chenxing was also sad when talking about this.

She murmured softly, "Dad, I miss my fourth brother too. He once said that when he made a lot of money in the future, he would buy me some candy."

Looking at my depressed little daughter, the laughter and joy of the past came to my mind.

Father Xiao felt a pain in his heart, and he tried hard to hold back the tears that were about to well up, "It's okay, everything will pass."

Time will slowly dilute everything and heal the scars.

…

The rain stopped at noon. Wen Ran was bored lying on the kang alone, so he simply took his backpack and went up the mountain.

It could be collecting grass for pigs or looking for some prey.

Always find something to do to make yourself less bored.

But on the way she discovered that the rain also had its benefits.

All kinds of mushrooms popped up like bamboo shoots after the rain.

Wen Ran's eyes suddenly lit up.

After quickly cutting a few baskets of pig grass to finish the task, Wen Ran began to pick mushrooms crazily.

Put the poisonous ones in the space so that you can use them as a trick later. Put the non-toxic ones in a part of the backpack and leave another part in the space, then take them home and eat them.

If you can’t finish it, you can dry it. When winter comes, soak it in warm water and stir-fry it with chicken.

Fresh mushrooms can be eaten fresh, and dried mushrooms can naturally be eaten dried as well.

But no matter which kind it is, the deliciousness of mushrooms will make people salivate.

Wen Ran decided to hunt two pheasants and bring them back so that they could have fresh chicken stewed with mushrooms in the evening.

She was in a cheerful mood, humming, "The little girl picking mushrooms, wearing a flowery dress~~~"

A dark shadow appeared in front of him. Wen Ran was so frightened that his heart skipped a beat. He was so flustered that he couldn't stand steadily and fell to his knees.

My knees were wet with mud.

Wen Ran slowly raised his head and saw the wolf's mean face.

Wen Ran: “…”

Tsk.

I'm so angry that my teeth are itching.

Then there was no need for her to hesitate any longer.

He raised his hand and gave the wolf a big slap.

Wen Ran felt happy, but the wolf leader went crazy.

It couldn't understand why it got hit hard by the two-legged beast even though it did nothing.

The sound of ghosts howling and wolves howling was really life-threatening. In addition, this thing acted recklessly when it went crazy, and all the nice fresh mushrooms around were trampled to pieces by it.

Wen Ran was so angry that he pulled the vines from the tree and twisted three or five of them into a thick one.

He picked up the small whip and started whipping the wolf's butt wildly.

The leader wolf howled, put its tail between its legs, and ran away in a panic.

Wen Ran snorted coldly, put away the vines, and moved to another place to continue stepping on the mushrooms.

In front of me, a dark shadow appeared silently.

Wen Ran was speechless for a moment, without even raising his head, and waved his hand, "Go away, if you make trouble again, I'll beat your butt to pieces."

She did hit it, but...

The touch is wrong.

What her hand touched was not the rough, full fur, but the trouser leg.

There was a person standing in front of her.

Before Wen Ran raised her head, a black object pressed against her forehead.

Heavy and cold.

Wen Ran didn't dare to move immediately.

Her heart shrank and her eyelashes trembled.

"Little girl, you are quite capable. I have been observing you for a long time. Surprisingly, you even dare to fight a wolf."

Wen Ran remained motionless and smiled awkwardly, "Is there any misunderstanding?"

She didn't even blink, "That's my family dog."
