Hearing the Wang family's ridicule, Boss Ye clenched the sickle in his hand.
Mrs. Ye was worried that he couldn't control his anger, so she quickly stuffed Qingtian into his arms.
Boss Ye threw the sickle into the basket and said, "Let's go. The sooner we go, the sooner we'll be back."
Mrs. Ye also carried a backpack. Thinking that the few people had not eaten much, she took another small basket and put a few cakes in it.
Ye Lao Er and Ye Lao San also carried empty baskets on their backs and went into the mountains with Qingtian.
The villagers called by Wang Dalong saw that the Ye family had no reaction, felt bored and slowly dispersed and went home.
Old Mrs. Ye sat in the car, thinking about what to do next.
She didn't want to trouble the Qin family because of this matter, but she was unfamiliar with the place, and even a strong dragon couldn't defeat a local snake!
It seems that I have to go into the city first to see what the patriarch’s attitude is.
Just as Old Lady Ye was racking her brains to find a solution, Boss Ye and his group had already entered the mountains.
It was Qingtian’s first time going up the mountain, and she looked around in Boss Ye’s arms.
Mrs. Ye followed behind the father and son, while the second and third sons of the Ye family brought up the rear.
"Mom, let's go over there!" Qingtian suddenly raised his hand and pointed in a direction.
Mrs. Ye's heart skipped a beat. She patted Mr. Ye's arm and said, "Did you hear that? My daughter said she wants to go over there!"
Anyway, it's just wandering around aimlessly, it doesn't matter where we go.
Boss Ye was happy to please his daughter, so he immediately changed direction and walked towards the direction that Qingtian pointed.
Not long after they started walking, the four of them were blocked by some fallen trees ahead.
Six or seven large trees, each as thick as two or three people could hug, were piled up in a haphazard manner, taller than Boss Ye and blocking everyone's view.
Seeing this, Boss Ye was about to turn around, but Qingtian still insisted, "Dad, don't turn, keep going!"
"Good girl Qingtian, we can't get through here, can we go around it?" Boss Ye coaxed his daughter patiently.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Ye suddenly said, "What's the big deal? Just climb up and take a look."
As she spoke, she lifted her skirt and climbed up the fallen tree first.
"Be careful!" Boss Ye didn't understand why his wife insisted like this, but since they had already climbed up, the objection that was about to come out of his mouth turned into a warning.
After climbing up, Mrs. Ye looked to the other side, but at first she couldn't see anything.
But she believed in the luck of sunny days, so she tried to observe whether there was anything different around her.
When she finally found some mountain goods, she was so overjoyed that she didn't know what to do. She turned around and shouted to the people still below, "Come up quickly! I found something great!"
Hearing her say this, the three brothers climbed up one after another.
"Sister-in-law, what did you find? Why don't I see anything?" Ye Lao Er looked to the other side, full of doubts. "Aren't these two forests the same? What's the difference?"
"Take a closer look." Mrs. Ye pointed to the fallen tree trunk below.
The three brothers looked carefully and this time they finally saw it.
The fallen tree was densely covered with wood ear mushrooms.
The gray-black fungus covered almost all the tree trunks.
So at first glance, they thought that was the original color of the tree trunk.
Ye Lao Er and Ye Lao San jumped down without saying a word and started picking the fruits, putting them into their baskets as they went.
Boss Ye was carrying the child on his back, so he didn't dare to act rashly and could only play it safe.
He first handed Qingtian to Mrs. Ye to hold, and after he went down, he turned around and took Qingtian back.
Mrs. Ye was the first to discover the wood ear, but she was the last one to climb down.
But when I came down and looked back, I felt even more shocked.
This is totally a wall of wood ears!
Mrs. Ye put Qingtian down, took out a cushion from her basket, and placed it on a nearby tree stump. She said, "Qingtian, you stay here and play quietly. Don't go anywhere else, okay?"
"Okay, I will definitely be good." Qingtian agreed repeatedly.
After settling into a sunny day, Mrs. Ye quickly joined the fungus picking group.
The four people worked hard to pick the fungus for a long time, and their baskets were almost full, but the number of fungus on the fallen tree seemed to be still the same, with no decrease at all.
Boss Ye wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Second and Third Brothers, do you two still remember the way?"
"I remember, what's wrong?"
"You two go back and take these baskets of fungus back.
"By the way, call your two wives over as well. It would be nice to have two more people to help."
Ye Laoer was completely immersed in the joy of picking wood ear mushrooms. When his eldest brother called him, he realized that the basket beside him was almost full.
So he readily agreed: "Okay!"
Boss Ye walked to the side and picked up some fallen leaves to cover the top of the basket.
Ye Lao San asked in confusion: "Brother, what are you doing?"
"What are you doing? There are so many fungus. If someone sees them, they will definitely follow you."
"Yes, big brother is the most thoughtful one."
Ye Lao Er and Ye Lao San also began to fill their backpacks with fallen leaves.
Boss Ye helped the two of them carry the backpacks over the fallen trees. They carried one backpack on their chests and one on their backs, and carried the four backpacks down the mountain.
Not long after, the two men returned with their wives, bringing a few extra baskets with them.
"Did anyone ask you?" asked Boss Ye.
"On the way back, we met a villager who asked us why we had so many leaves. I said we were saving them for making our beds to keep warm at night," Ye Lao Er said with a smile. "The man saw that we were carrying two baskets each and walking so easily, so he didn't suspect anything. He probably thought we were stupid!"
