Zhao Maizhou knew very well that he could not persuade Chen Shuilian to change her mind, so he could only nod and agree readily.
"Then I'm going down the mountain. Mom, you must be careful when you're alone. I'll be back soon."
"Go ahead," Chen Shuilian waved her hand casually. "By the way, take the mushrooms in the basket down first, and bring an empty basket back when you come back. I see there are quite a lot of new mushrooms growing around here, so it's a good time to pick some now, otherwise they will all be picked by tomorrow."
"Okay..." Zhao Maizhou completely lost control of his expression after hearing this.
I have to say, she is worthy of being his mother. In such a tense environment, she can still think about picking mushrooms.
If it were him, he would definitely stare at his surroundings and not dare to move.
This mentality and this momentum are role models for him to learn from!
Zhao Maizhou had just walked two meters forward with the basket on his back when he turned around and continued to remind her, "Mom, don't just focus on picking mushrooms. You must listen carefully to the movements around you!"
"I know, I know." Chen Shuilian waved her hands impatiently. Seeing that Zhao Maizhou didn't leave, she picked up the machete with dried blood on the ground.
Facing Zhao Maizhou's horrified gaze, she waved at him, "I'll keep the knife by my side to ensure safety, so don't worry."
Zhao Maizhou was completely speechless as he looked at the waving machete: "..."
At this moment, he felt that his worries were unnecessary...
Mom, you’re so strong.
After everyone left, Chen Shuilian couldn't rest for a moment. She immediately plunged into the exciting work of picking mushrooms.
Last night's heavy rain moistened the soil, and today many mushrooms have sprouted and are growing very well.
Besides, no one else ventured up the mountain today to snatch the mushrooms from her, so all the mushrooms she saw were hers.
Even if we can’t finish eating so many mushrooms, we can dry them and keep them for winter, or we can take them to the county and sell them for money.
The mushrooms in front of me are no longer mushrooms, but small coins.
As long as she picked enough, she could even save enough money to buy cloth for the children.
Thinking about the clothes worn by the children at home, she felt sad.
She always wanted to leave the best things for the eldest son, even clothes were no exception.
As for the remaining people, in her opinion, as long as they were not cold, it would be fine. She implemented this policy thoroughly, three years for the new year, three years for the old year, and three years for patching up.
But now that she has repented, she can't let her children continue to live in this muddled way.
Thinking of this, she picked mushrooms faster.
At this time, Chen Shuilian felt that she had endless energy. Besides, picking mushrooms by squatting on the ground did not require much effort.
So until everyone came back, Chen Shuilian did not stop what she was doing.
Zhao Fengtian, who was brought up the mountain by his second brother, fell into deep thought as he looked at the mushrooms that looked like a small hill.
If he heard correctly, his second brother seemed to say that he and his mother caught a wild boar and were going to carry it down the mountain?
Now he didn’t even see the shadow of the wild boar, but only saw the mushrooms piled up like a small hill... ?
Did he really hear it wrong?
No way...
He is still so young that he is not even hard of hearing yet...
Can't you tell the difference between transporting pigs and transporting mushrooms?
