Song Yun waved her hand. "No, no, I'm just a rough person. I can't afford such an exquisite handkerchief. Besides, it must have taken a lot of time to embroider it, and it would hurt my eyes."
Although Song Yun refused, Chen Cuicui still kept it in mind and decided to think carefully about what pattern to embroider for Song Yun when she returned.
Ru Yu said that she approached Song Yun at the beginning at the instruction of her husband, wanting to establish a good relationship with her, but now, she really wants to be friends with Song Yun.
After more than an hour's drive, they finally arrived at their destination, Lixia Mountain.
They chose the east side of Lixia Mountain. There was a large team on the south side. The villagers were very xenophobic and did not like outsiders coming to Lixia Mountain to collect. When they came to collect, they were looked down upon. So they chose the east side of Lixia Mountain, which was an extra 20 minutes' drive away and far away from those villages.
The air in the wilderness is different from the air here. It is mixed with the fresh smell of grass and soil, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
My sisters-in-law all grew up in the countryside, so they were very familiar with this kind of air and scene. As soon as they got off the car, they took a few deep breaths and felt comfortable.
Looking for wild vegetables in the grass and mushrooms in the dead leaves was a habit they had done since childhood. They soon got into the state and began to put the gifts of nature into their baskets bit by bit.
Song Yun kept a certain distance from her sisters-in-law, but she didn't go too far away. After all, they were in the wild, and it was hard to say if there would be no accidents. Since she came with them, she had to ensure the safety of her sisters-in-law, and naturally she couldn't act alone.
Chen Cuicui was afraid that Song Yun would not recognize the wild vegetables here, so she brought the wild vegetables she had dug to Song Yun and asked her to identify them and dig them as she saw them.
Song Yun really didn't recognize some of them and thought they were weeds. She didn't expect they could be eaten.
The sisters-in-law dug hard for two hours, and their baskets were almost full. Seeing Song Yun filling the bags, they were all envious and regretted not bringing a bag with them. It was a pity to waste all the wild vegetables and juicy mushrooms. It was impossible to borrow a car every day.
Song Yun suggested to them, "Pour the contents of the baskets into the truck bed, then come back with the baskets to pick the fruits. But remember to keep track of the locations."
Chen Cuicui's eyes lit up. "That's a good idea. Let's each pick some wild flowers and grasses to use as a mark around the area. That way, we won't make a mistake."
Everyone agreed that this was a good idea, and they quickly went to pick a handful of wild flowers and weeds, carried the baskets back to the car, and surrounded the flowers and weeds they had picked. Everyone surrounded a different one, so there would be no mistakes.
Song Yun picked some herbs on the edge of the mountain and filled a sack with them. Another sack was filled with various wild vegetables, and the basket was full of various edible mushrooms. When everything was full, it was already half past twelve in the afternoon.
When I looked up, my sisters-in-law were still rummaging in the grass. They had no intention of going back and they didn't bring any food with them. It seemed that they were planning to go hungry.
Looking around, I saw a small lake with slowly flowing water not far away. There should be fish in it.
She casually pulled two long vines and, as she headed towards the lake, used them to weave a net. She then used thick branches to secure the net, and a simple landing net was ready. She glanced back at her sisters-in-law, then chose a spot out of their sight. She pulled a rice ball from her storage compartment and doused it with a little nutrient solution—just a little, not too much, fearing the fish would go crazy and attract onlookers, making it difficult to explain.
The cooked rice balls were kneaded a few times and then broken up. They were then thrown into the lake. Soon, fat fish floated up from the bottom of the lake and opened their mouths to eat the rice grains.
Song Yun was quick-eyed and quick-handed. She quickly scooped the fat fish into the net and threw it ashore, then continued scooping.
After catching more than twenty fish in a row, she used her watch to scan the fish crowded in the water. She traded those that could be traded and put the ones that could not be traded into the storage compartment.
When Song Yun appeared in the sisters-in-law's sight, holding more than 20 fish hanging from vines in her left hand, one of them looked up and saw this scene, and was shocked, "Oh my God!"
"What's wrong?"
The sister-in-law stood up and pointed in Song Yun's direction, "Hey, hey, that's a fish, right? Am I seeing things?"
The sisters-in-law who heard the noise looked at Song Yun. They were all shocked and dropped the wild vegetables in their hands and ran towards Song Yun.
"Xiao Song, where did you get these fish? Why are there so many?"
Song Yun put the fish down, pointed to the lake in the distance, and said with a smile, "I was lucky. I happened to come across a nest of fish hiding in the water plants. I made a scoop net and scooped some up."
