The sticky mushrooms that Ye Changrui mentioned are actually pine mushrooms.
This kind of mushroom is more common in the mountains outside the Great Wall, and can also be found in the pine forests near the capital, but it is rare to see so many of them.
After discovering the mushrooms, Ye Changxue loudly called back Ye Changxue and Ye Changnian who had run up the mountain earlier, and everyone started picking mushrooms together.
Compared to wild grapes that can only be used to make wine, mushrooms are obviously more attractive.
The children originally wanted to pick some wild grapes to take home, so they all came out carrying the small baskets woven for them by their parents.
Even on sunny days, there was no backpack at all. He was just brought up the mountain to play.
The children’s small backpacks obviously couldn’t hold so many mushrooms.
So Qingtian said to Pei You and Fan Yizhou, "Can you go back and get us some backpacks? It would be best if you could call Second Uncle over as well!"
Although Qingtian has been recognized by Prince Rui's Mansion, it has been a short time and he is not used to giving orders to others.
So when he spoke to Pei You and Fan Yizhou at this time, his requests were all in a babyish voice.
If they were not all children and only two of them were adults with long legs and could walk fast, Qingtian would not have wanted to trouble them for help at all.
But for Pei You and Fan Yizhou, no matter whether Qingtian's tone was an order or a request, they had to listen to the young master's words.
Pei You looked around and thought for a moment.
Although Fan Yizhou is better in Kung Fu, he is still young and lacks experience.
Pei You then asked Fan Yizhou, "Do you remember the way you came here?"
"Brother Pei, I remember it!" Fan Yizhou nodded.
"Okay, I'll stay here and you can go back quickly."
"Okay!" Fan Yizhou did not question Pei You's order at all, and immediately ran down the mountain.
Seeing that there were so many mushrooms in the field, Pei You told the Ye family children to pick mushrooms nearby and not go too far, and then he tentatively walked over to Qingtian to help her pick them.
Fortunately, Qingtian just glanced at him and didn't refuse.
So Pei You followed Qingtian silently, watching her and helping her pick mushrooms.
They hadn't walked too far after going up the mountain, and Fan Yizhou had martial arts experience, so he quickly ran back to the Ye family.
Ye Laoer was chopping wood in the yard. When he saw him running back alone, he thought something had happened to the children and was so scared that the axe in his hand almost flew out.
"What happened? Why did you come back by yourself?"
When the other people in the family heard what Ye Laoer said, they all poked their heads out of the house and looked at Fan Yizhou.
"It's okay, it's okay!" Fan Yizhou waved his hands quickly. "We found a large mushroom field on the mountain, and the baskets we brought aren't enough. Brother Pei asked me to come back and get a few more baskets. It would be best if we could get Brother Ye to help as well."
Fan Yizhou was afraid that he had not described the huge number of mushrooms clearly, so when he talked about a large area of mushrooms, he deliberately opened his arms and gestured as hard as he could.
However, when the Ye family heard that the child was fine, they did not react at all.
But it doesn't seem like they don't believe it.
Because Ye Lao Er went directly to the warehouse to get out a bunch of backpacks, Ye Dasao and Ye Ersao also came out of the house, ready to go up the mountain together to help pick mushrooms.
This was Fan Yizhou's first time meeting Qingtian, and he had no idea how powerful she was.
But the Ye family had long been accustomed to it, and they consciously took all the backpacks in the house and followed Fan Yizhou up the mountain.
When everyone returned to the mountain, Pei You and the children had already picked a lot of mushrooms, and there were several piles on the ground.
But the number of mushrooms on the ground seemed to have not decreased at all, and they still looked everywhere.
Mrs. Ye was delighted when she saw the mushrooms: "I didn't expect there are sticky dumplings here in the capital. Hurry up and pick them all back. I'll make a mushroom feast for you tonight!"
After she said that, she walked forward with her basket, first collected all the mushrooms piled on the ground into the basket, and then followed everyone's footsteps and started picking mushrooms.
The Ye family used to live outside the Great Wall. Every autumn they would go up the mountain to pick mushrooms and buy mountain products, so they were very good at this job.
Because the children are short, they are very agile when picking mushrooms.
Only Pei You and Fan Yizhou, although they were highly skilled in martial arts, had never done this kind of work. After picking for a while, they gradually felt that their waists could not bear it.
The two men tried to hold back at first, not wanting to appear inferior to women and children.
But after a long time, my waist is really not strong enough!
Ye Lao Er was the first to notice the two people's unusual behavior and quickly said, "These backpacks are full. Could you please help carry them home?"
Pei You and Fan Yizhou's first reaction was that their savior had arrived. They would rather run up and down the mountain dozens of times than bend over in the grass to look for and pick mushrooms.
But at the same time, both of them felt extremely ashamed.
Pei You obviously thought more than Fan Yizhou.
It seems that we must strengthen our waist strength training when we go back this time.
As the royal guards of the palace, there cannot be such obvious loopholes.
Mrs. Ye seemed to see the embarrassment of the two and said with a smile, "Actually, there's a big difference between going up the mountain to get mountain products and doing farm work and practicing martial arts. The strength used is not the same.
“If you ask some people with great Kung Fu skills to farm, it will be difficult for them to master the strength and skills at the beginning, and they will be exhausted after a day.
"When we were living outside the Great Wall, my husband loved going up the mountain. He knew everything about hunting and getting mountain products, and he never felt tired. Instead, during the busy farming season, he would go to the fields to help, and he would be so tired that he couldn't get up from the kang.
"Look at my second son, he just likes to do farm work and rarely goes up the mountain throughout the year.
"You've never been to the mountains to get mountain products before. If you're suddenly asked to pick so many mushrooms, it would be strange if your backs don't hurt!"
After hearing what Mrs. Ye said, Pei You and Fan Yizhou both felt better.
"Then let's help transport the mushrooms home!"
The two men carried the backpacks that had already been filled, and each of them picked up another backpack in their hands. In this way, each of them went down the mountain with three backpacks hanging on their backs.
When they returned to the Ye family, they found that Old Mrs. Ye had already been waiting for them in the yard.
Many large woven plaques had already been placed in the yard.
Seeing the two of them coming back, Old Lady Ye hurriedly greeted them, "Come, just pour all the mushrooms on top, and I'll take care of the rest."
After Pei You and Fan Yizhou emptied their backpacks, they hurried back to the mountain.
At this time, everyone had almost picked all the mushrooms in the forest and were just waiting for them to bring back the baskets.
Everyone worked together to put the mushrooms into the baskets, and then walked home happily together.
As soon as the group got down the mountain, they were surrounded by villagers who had rushed over after hearing the news.
"Are you selling these mushrooms?"
