Jiang Ling found the expressions on their faces amusing, and said softly, "Eat up, you must be starving!"

Jiang Ling's words were like a spell breaking a seal; the three children snapped out of their daze and began to eat heartily, holding their rice bowls.

Soon, the plate of meatballs in front of them was completely empty, not even a drop of soup was left. The three children seemed to still want more, and they even licked their empty bowls several times before reluctantly putting them down on the table.

"Big brother, big brother, am I dreaming?" Jiang Wenxi asked innocently, touching her stomach.

"This..." Jiang Yaojie didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he could only look to Jiang Ling for help.

"I told you before, I would never let you go hungry if you follow me!" Jiang Ling said softly, looking at Jiang Wenxi, whose mouth still had a grain of coarse rice stuck to it.

"Mom, you're so wonderful! I love you so much!" Jiang Wenxi said with her big, round eyes after hearing Jiang Ling's words.

Strangely enough, as soon as Jiang Wenxi finished speaking, Jiang Ling felt a warmth in her heart. Jiang Ling smiled and patted Jiang Wenxi's head, saying, "Yaojie, go and fetch two buckets of water later. Suihe and Wenxi, you two come with me up the mountain to dig some wild vegetables later."

After resting for a while, Jiang Ling washed the dishes, picked up her basket, and led her two children toward the mountains.

Throughout the journey, the system's notifications in Jiang Ling's mind never stopped. Looking at the medicinal herbs covering the mountain, Jiang Ling couldn't help but become increasingly excited.

[Beep: Wild Atractylodes macrocephala has been found. Price: 100 copper coins per pound]

The mechanical prompt sounded again, and Jiang Ling shuddered upon hearing it. She quickly looked up into the distance and saw that about several dozen meters away, large patches of plants were twinkling with starlight.

"One hundred copper coins a pound? I'm rich! I'm rich!" Jiang Ling'an suppressed her inner elation and tried to calm herself down. She looked at Jiang Suihe and Jiang Wenxi standing to the side and said, "Suihe, Wenxi, you two stay here and dig for wild vegetables. I'll go inside and look for some!"

After Jiang Ling finished speaking, she tried her best to suppress her inner joy and walked towards the twinkling starlight.

When Jiang Ling got closer, she saw that the area within about a meter around her was full of wild Atractylodes macrocephala, and all of them were covered with pink flowers.

Without saying a word, Jiang Ling put down her basket and began frantically digging for Atractylodes macrocephala in front of her, even though the scorching midday sun had already made her drenched in sweat. Nothing could stop Jiang Ling's pursuit of money.

After digging for an unknown amount of time, Jiang Ling looked at the mud on her hands and suddenly realized something. However, before she could figure it out, a hurried voice came from behind her.
