Chapter 67 Going up the mountain to pick mushrooms



In June, the work in the fields is almost done. Many people are resting at home, while some people who have not met the work points requirements are still busy at work.

It rained heavily not long ago, so it is a good time to pick mushrooms.

Despite all kinds of publicity in Yunnan Province every year, there are still people who don’t believe it and insist on eating them. It’s just a matter of their lives anyway, and no one else will understand the joy of picking mushrooms.

The aunties who were weeding in the fields by the roadside were not surprised to see Lu Xiao and Jiang Yan walking together.

Lu Li is a chatterbox, but he also has the strongest intelligence team in the village. He is just short of using a loud speaker to spread notifications from one end of the village to the other.

Jiang Yan is from her Lu family. If anyone dares to harass her, don't blame me for breaking his bones.

They are all from the same village, and they will meet each other every day. What's more, Lu Xiao is an officer, so why does he have to go to such a dead end?

One by one, they greeted warmly: "Xiao Lu, you haven't returned to the city yet! Oh, our educated youth Xiao Jiang is so pretty. I heard that the tractor broke down and it was you who fixed it! You are so capable, you two are a perfect match! When can the aunties have a drink of this and share in the good fortune!"

"Xiao Jiang, you have good taste. There is nothing to say about Lu. We watched him grow up. He is a man who loves his wife very much."

"Where are you going? Picking mushrooms?"

Almost every household in the village dries some, and after drying, they are used to make soup in winter, which tastes very delicious.

Otherwise, it will be a mess and life will be hard!

Jiang Yan smiled and replied, "Yes, auntie, I have to go to work tomorrow. Brother Lu said he would take me to the mountains to pick mushrooms today!"

The aunt was relieved when she heard this: "That's good, Xiao Lu can recognize mushrooms. Don't pick up the brightly colored ones, most of them are poisonous!

Last week, Lao Lin's family had a pot of mushrooms, and the whole family had vomiting and diarrhea, and they almost dug someone up with a rake!"

When talking about gossips in the village, these aunts couldn't help but smile with their teeth showing. They are all very simple people.

Jiang Yan smiled: "Okay, Auntie, let's go!"

"Go... Go early and come back early. Don't go inside. There are many snakes, rats, insects and ants!"

"Um!"

After greeting them, the two quickened their pace. Lu Li walked back and forth with a dogtail grass in his mouth.

What's going on! His brother has taken root in the Youth Farm! Where is he? He's about to melt in the sun!

Is he some kind of villain?

He turned his head and saw Lu Xiao coming, then he breathed a sigh of relief, he waved: "Brother, sister-in-law, this way!"

Lu Li was afraid of the sun, so he wore a straw hat! He was also very particular.

He took out the roasted corn cobs from the basket. They were steaming and emitting a sweet aroma. He gave one to each person.

"This is baked by Second Aunt. It's grown in our own private plot. It's very sweet. Eat it while it's hot. It's too hard to chew when it's cold!"

Lu Xiao took it, but didn't rush to eat it. Instead, he peeled the corn kernels and handed it to Jiang Yan.

Lu Li: “…” My teeth are sore. I should be in the river, not on the river bank.

"Let's go!"

Ugh, I really can't stand the sour smell of these people's dating.

When he finds a partner in the future, he will also sleep leaning on his partner's abs, and no one will be able to survive him.

Jiang Yan is used to Lu Xiao's care. In her words, she was born to be pampered and will not suffer hardship after getting married.

Let her suffer and she will run away.

It’s no wonder that the corn grown in the countryside is very sweet whether it is roasted or boiled.

Jiang Yan ate the whole thing and also took over most of Lu Xiao's.

The three men walked towards the mountains, which made the educated youth who were sweating from exhaustion in the fields by the roadside feel dizzy when they saw them.

The villagers who were in the same group with them in order to earn a few more work points saw that they were almost dead, and cursed: "You went out to steal people in the middle of the night, and you look like you haven't woken up yet? Don't be lazy! I'm so unlucky to be assigned to the same group with you!"

"Look at that bruised and swollen face. Was she beaten by a man? Isn't it said that men are your sky? Is this the sky falling? Hahahaha."

"Mao Zhiqing, why are you covering your face? It's so hot, aren't you afraid of getting maggots?"

"Old Chen, you are so weak-legged that you are really a joke. The old man in his fifties at the entrance of the village is stronger than you on the kang!"

These aunts are very mean-spirited. It's because the educated youth looked down on them and called them peasants.

If they were not farmers growing crops, they would not be able to eat this. Ha, they are even noble.

Their ancestors were poor peasants for three generations, so they had quite a good family background.

Mao Dahua yelled angrily, "It's none of your business. Why bother worrying about other people's business? You... um..."

The fat aunt on the other side pulled out a piece of cow dung and threw it into her mouth: "Little bastard, who are you scolding? You eat the food of the common people, but you still use the tricks of capitalist rich people. Bah, I think you are just given too many smiles, and you are all sick!"

Mao Dahua was so angry that she rushed over and pointed at Auntie Pang, "You bitch...ah..."

The fat aunt grabbed her hand and twisted it hard, and her fingers immediately became deformed. Mao Dahua bent over and covered her hands in pain, with cold sweat on her face.

Zhao Shuhua and Liu Xueer were terrified. They thought that they were all educated youth and could not let anyone bully them. So they rushed over and asked with concern, "Mao Zhiqing, how are you? We'll take you to see a doctor!"

"Hand, my hand is broken! She hurt me on purpose." Mao Dahua gritted his teeth and glared at Aunt Fat fiercely.

Auntie Fat spat twice, pointed at Mao Dahua and cursed: "You rotten bastard, how many people in this brigade dare to point at me? You are nothing, I have four sons, if you provoke me, I will send them all to your grave to cry at your grave sooner or later, so that you will never have peace."

She twisted her hand and broke it. Mao Dahua screamed in fear and there was a "crunch" sound, which made the people around her feel numb.

Seeing that she was about to pee her pants in pain, the fat aunt threw her aside and said with disgust: "Tsk, you are so naive and like to play, isn't this good enough?"

Aunt Pang’s ancestors are very good at treating injuries, especially bone setting, and they are quite famous in the village.

When everyone was starving and had to eat dirt, she was still fat and plump.

The men in the house are the ones who come to her house, and she has the final say.

Don’t even think about men daring to hit her. It’s good enough that she doesn’t commit domestic violence.

The other female educated youth lowered their heads, afraid to provoke the fat aunt. This woman had a strange temper and who knew if she would break their hands. It was too cruel.

Mao Dahua held his breath, feeling that he had become more and more unlucky since Jiang Yan came.

She must have sucked away my luck.

If it weren't for her, I would have been the one to marry the officer. Why would I have to work in the fields to make a living? The hundreds of dollars in allowance could have helped support the family!

Xu Laidi felt very jealous when he saw how Lu Xiao cared for Jiang Yan.

How could this man not see how good he is? It's all because of that bitch who used her face to confuse him!

She must expose Jiang Yan's true face.

If Jiang Yan knew what they were thinking, she would definitely sneer at them. Sorry, she is Miss Jiang, and there are many men willing to pamper her.

Her marrying Lu Xiao is the blessing he has earned in eight lifetimes!

And she is nothing! Not even worthy of carrying her shoes.

After all, when Miss Jiang is in a good mood, she will get gold coins. Who wouldn't want to be close to her?
