Soon, the meal was happily finished.
"Brother, let's go to the back mountain to see if there are any wild vegetables, mushrooms, etc."
Usually, Jiang Ning would go to the back mountain with her second brother to look for wild vegetables early in the morning after dinner, so it was not surprising to them.
So the two of them carried a basket with a small hoe and a hatchet in it and walked towards the back mountain.
The mountain behind the village is called Old Man Mountain. The origin of the name is very simple. There is a huge rock on the top of the mountain that looks like an old man smoking, so the local villagers named it Old Man Mountain according to the appearance of the rock.
The brother and sister walked along the path deep into the mountains. Because the mountains were quite large, many people would come to the mountains to dig wild vegetables, pick mushrooms, and hunt during the slack season, so the path was relatively flat.
Jiang Ning and Jiang Weimin walked for a while and found a clean big rock to sit on and rest.
In fact, Jiang Ning went into the mountains not to pick mushrooms, but to pick up a mysterious man. This mysterious man was originally found in the mountains with the heroine Jiang Mingzhu in her previous life. Later, Jiang Mingzhu became the first millionaire in the village with the help of this mysterious man.
Unfortunately, Jiang Ning died too early, and before this mysterious man could wake up, she married Li Ergou.
She guessed that this mysterious man didn't even know that she had saved him, but even if he knew, what would it matter? She was the first to die, so even if the boss wanted to help, he couldn't do anything.
So this time she must seize the initiative, rescue this mysterious man back home first, and hold on to the boss's thigh first.
As for why this man's identity is so mysterious? She read the entire novel and still doesn't know his true identity. She doesn't know if the author forgot to fill this hole or plans to write another novel about this mysterious man.
The two siblings rested for a while and then set off again.
"Ningning, are we going to a new place to pick mushrooms today? Why does this road feel more and more desolate?" Jiang Weimin asked Jiang Ning in confusion while using a hatchet to cut a new path in front of Jiang Ning.
"Yes, second brother, the mushrooms in front have basically been picked up by others, and the wild vegetables have almost been dug up. We must change places to look for these things, otherwise we won't be able to pick up anything today."
When Jiang Weimin heard what Jiang Ning said, he thought it made sense, so he swung the hatchet in his hand even more vigorously.
"But, Ningning, wouldn't it be the same if I asked you to rest at home for a while and then we could go out together tomorrow to pick up the trash? I'm afraid your body can't handle it."
"It's okay, second brother. I didn't fall into the water. It was my cousin who fell into the water. She should rest. I also want to pick more mushrooms in the mountains to improve our family's food! It would be best if I could pick up a big rabbit to satisfy my hunger."
"Okay, okay, you're right. Let's keep going forward and take a look. No one has really been here before. Maybe there are a lot of mushrooms to pick up. It would be best if we could pick up a big rabbit." Jiang Weimin coaxed Jiang Ning in a child's tone.
After saying that, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Jiang Ning looked at his second brother with a crescent moon in front of him and secretly vowed to protect their family.
The Jiang family in the book doesn't have a happy ending. The two brothers are falsely accused of speculation and jailed, and their eldest sister-in-law dies in childbirth because of this. After Jiang Ning's tragic death, the grandparents suffer another blow, and their health deteriorates. The two adorable nephews, lacking a proper education, eventually turn to crime.
So in this life, Jiang Ning survived in place of her previous incarnation, so she must protect her family who loved her and let them enjoy the wonderful life in the new society.
Old Man Mountain, under the cliff.
This should be the place. Jiang Ning remembered that his predecessor and the heroine picked up the mysterious man in this place, but the order was reversed. His predecessor and the heroine picked up the mysterious man in the evening, and at night he was framed by his cheap aunt and cheap cousin and married to Li Ergou.
Now that things have turned around and I have arrived at this place in advance, it seems that there will be no problem.
Just as Jiang Ning was thinking about how to bring this man home after picking him up, her second brother broke her fantasy: "Ning girl, you are right. There are really a lot of mushrooms to pick up here."
Jiang Ning exclaimed in amazement as he watched his second brother picking mushrooms with both hands.
Jiang Weimin thought, who knows, I might actually pick up a big wild rabbit today.
But for Jiang Ning, no matter how many mushrooms there are, she is not in the mood to pick them up now.
What's going on? This mysterious man hasn't appeared yet. Could it be that his appearance has changed the direction of the story in the book?
She was picking mushrooms absentmindedly while waiting for the mysterious man to appear, but unfortunately he still didn't show up after her second brother enthusiastically picked half a basket of mushrooms and dug half a basket of wild vegetables. It seemed that something had happened. She wanted to wait a little longer, but it was getting dark and her second brother had urged her to go home many times. After all, it was still dangerous to be in the mountains at night.
On the way home, Jiang Ning unexpectedly found a silly big rabbit that had hit a tree and fell beside the tree.
"Brother, what do you see there? Is that a rabbit?"
Jiang Weimin looked in the direction of Jiang Ning's finger and saw a big rabbit lying beside a tree with blood all over its head.
Jiang Weimin couldn't believe his eyes. Oh my god? Such a lucky thing? Everything Ning said today actually came true. Ning was truly their family's lucky star.
