Chapter 331 Does her son have abilities that she doesn’t know about?

The large group marched up the mountain in a mighty manner. Su Ranran occasionally looked back at the many people behind them, and couldn't help but worry whether there were enough rice dumpling leaves to cut for them.

Military wives apparently aren't worried about this problem.

Along the way, we not only talked and laughed, but also picked up a handful of mushrooms, some wood ears, and occasionally a few firewood.

The firewood in Su Ranran's house has been piled up for a long time. It is estimated that it will not be used up in a month. All of it was picked up by Shen He during his rest time.

There was a lot of firewood at home, so she was too lazy to pick it up, so she just handed it to Xie Fangshu when she saw it.

It is now June, the hottest time of the year.

All the way up the mountain, the sound of cicadas overhead never ceased.

The older children had prepared bamboo poles early on, with glue from somewhere stuck on one end, and they could catch cicadas accurately one by one.

These children usually help collect firewood and are used to these places. In addition, the wild boar's den was destroyed by the troops last time, so the wives of the soldiers are not too worried about their safety.

Su Ranran was also accustomed to the attitude of letting children be raised in a free-range manner in this era, and most of the time she let the two little guys play with their brother.

But now they were going up a mountain, and for fear that they might slip, Su Ranran kept her eyes fixed on the two babies.

"Where are the zongzi leaves?"

They had been walking for such a long time but didn't stop, so Su Ranran asked Xie Fangshu curiously.

"It's on the other side of the mountain. There are a lot of zongzi leaves there."

Hearing that there were a lot, Su Ranran felt relieved.

The two babies often go up the mountain with their mother. They have good stamina and they don’t complain of being tired even after climbing for such a long time.

But they are still small and walk slowly.

Su Ranran had to slow down and wait for them, and gradually fell to the back of the team.

Xie Fangshu was worried about Su Ranran taking care of two children alone, so she stayed with the mother and her two children from beginning to end.

Erga didn't go looking for his brothers and sisters to catch cicadas, he just liked to play with the dragon and phoenix twins.

The three children would occasionally stop to catch dragonflies and grasshoppers.

If it were in the past, Xie Fangshu would have definitely given her son a brain explosion, but seeing that Su Ranran was patiently waiting for the child, she stopped rushing him.

"Look! There are mushrooms here!"

Suddenly, Ergaizi pointed at the mushrooms hidden next to the tree roots and said excitedly.

The two adults walked forward carrying backpacks.

The backpacks here in the western province are somewhat different from those in the south. They are narrow at the bottom, wide at the top, and quite large in size, so they can hold a lot of things.

However, there were many military wives, so the two of them followed at the end and didn’t pick up anything.

Now that she saw real mushrooms, Xie Fangshu was also very excited.

"Ranran, come here quickly. There are a lot of mushrooms here, including morels."

Su Ranran took a look and found that it was true.

Clusters of morels are dotted among the grass, looking very pleasing to the eye.

"It should be ours. So many sisters-in-law passed by just now and I didn't see it."

Xie Fangshu was very happy. She put down the backpack and started picking mushrooms.

Little Zhaozhao loves eating mushrooms the most. Seeing so many mushrooms on the ground is like a mouse falling into a rice jar.

I looked at this flower and then that flower, and for a moment I didn't know which one to pick.

The adults were quick with their hands, picking up the flowers one after another.

Xiao Zhaozhao was anxious and quickly hugged one, "Mine!"

Xie Fangshu couldn't help laughing, "Yes, yes, it belongs to us, no one is allowed to steal it."

Xiao Zhaozhao was satisfied then and gave Xie Fangshu a big smile.

The two little claws grabbed the mushroom umbrella and tried to pull it up directly.

But mushrooms are tender after all, how can they withstand being grabbed like this?

Finally it split directly from both sides.

Seeing that the mushroom was broken, Xiao Zhaozhao was suddenly sad.

"Wow~ Mushrooms!"

When Erga heard Xiao Zhaozhao crying, he quickly walked over with his mushroom in his hands.

"Don't cry, sister. I have it here."

The mushroom in Erga's hand was big and beautiful, and little Zhaozhao really liked it.

I reached out and took the mushroom he handed to me, and felt happy again.

Su Ranran: …

How do you manage to control your crying and laughing so easily?

When Xie Fangshu saw how well her son took care of his sister, she immediately smiled with relief.

Su Ranran picked a few more mushrooms and stopped, "That's enough."

Xie Fangshu saw that she had picked less than she had, so she put another handful into her basket.

"That's enough. You can pick up the rest yourself."

Su Ranran said this and carried the backpack on her back.

When I was about to greet Xiao Zhaozhao and Xiao Yanyan, I found Xiao Yanyan squatting a few meters away.

It seems like he is looking at something.

Su Ranran walked forward curiously.

"Xiao Yan, what are you looking at? We are leaving now."

Xiao Yanyan pointed at a plant and said to Su Ranran, "Pull it out."

Su Ranran took a closer look and discovered that the inconspicuous plant seemed to be a ginseng?

Su Ranran:?!

Looking at the ginseng and then at her son, Su Ranran was shocked.

Could it be that this little guy has abilities that they don't know about?

Last time it was a nest of wild rabbits, this time it was wild ginseng.

These things that others would have difficulty finding even if they searched all over the mountains and fields were found easily by him.

And it seemed that Erga had just discovered the mushrooms when he was following Xiao Yanyan here.

"Ranran, what's wrong?"

Seeing the mother and son squatting under the tree without moving, Xie Fangshu asked curiously.

Su Ranran pointed at the ginseng and said, "There is a ginseng here. I'll find a bamboo stick to dig it up."

Xie Fangshu: ? ?

She wondered if there was something wrong with her ears.

"Ginseng?"

Why does her expression look so calm, as if she was saying there is a carrot here?

Su Ranran nodded, "That should be correct. It looks like it could be fifty years."

After hearing this, Xie Fangshu began to doubt her life.

Fifty years old ginseng!

Are you so calm?

If ginseng could speak, it would probably roar: Please respect me!

Compared to Su Ranran's calmness, Xie Fangshu seemed much more excited than her.

He turned around and went to help her find bamboo strips.

Not long after walking, I saw a clump of dwarf bamboos.

"Ranran, there are bamboo leaves here. We don't have to go to the mountain to cut bamboo leaves for making rice dumplings."

Xie Fangshu shouted in surprise.

Su Ranran looked towards her, and sure enough, there were quite a few bamboos there.

Indocalamus is short, but its leaves are large, making it perfect for wrapping rice dumplings.

This time it was really effortless.

"You go dig ginseng, and I'll help you cut bamboo leaves."

Xie Fangshu had already chopped down a bamboo with a knife, cut it neatly into strips and handed them to Su Ranran.

"Okay, I won't be polite with you." Su Ranran said as she took the bamboo slip.

"Hey! We are just two people, do we need to be polite?"

People give her extra lessons and teach her skills every day, and it would be great for her to repay them in any way she can.

The two of them acted separately.

Erga helped Xie Fangshu put the bamboo leaves into the backpack. Little Yanyan squatted beside Su Ranran and watched her dig ginseng attentively.

Only Xiao Zhaozhao was busy and happy, watching Xie Fangshu cutting bamboo leaves, then watching Su Ranran digging ginseng.
