Chapter 120 Wild Fruits



Although Shen Muling could tell that Hu Meiling was somewhat reluctant to get close to her, she did not considerately comply with her wishes.

Hu Meiling looked around and realized that she was the only girl who could answer her question.

So even if they were unwilling, they could only slowly and reluctantly get closer.

She only stopped being afraid when she saw the large basket of wild fruit on her back.

Having spent several years in the countryside, she knew the educated youth settlement best; they generally couldn't pick many wild fruits.

Although Shen Mu Ning is exceptionally capable, her record today is that of a wild boar.

She thought that she was only asked to come over to teach her a lesson.

Now, seeing the many wild fruits placed next to her, she realized she had misunderstood her.

"Shen Zhiqing, where did you pick these wild fruits?" This quantity is probably equivalent to the total number she picked last year.

What Shen Mu Ning has here is definitely what she got today.

"These were picked deep in the mountains; there are quite a lot of wild fruits in them."

"However, you'd better not go; you might encounter wild boars inside."

She had heard Cao Ding mention traces of wolves before, and although she hadn't encountered any, the presence of wild boars was a certainty.

The places where she broke through into the mountains last time due to her supernatural abilities, and the places where she encountered the wild boar this time, were both not far from the outer edge of the mountain forest.

Although they dealt with the wild boars, it seemed easy for them.

But for ordinary people like Hu Meiling, getting involved with a herd of wild boars means certain death or serious injury.

Upon hearing this, Hu Meiling had only one feeling: "I knew it!" She quickly shook her head.

“I don’t go into the deep mountains. If I go in like this, I’m afraid I won’t be able to come out.”

If it weren't for the fact that it's deep in the mountains, the wild fruits around Xinshan Brigade would basically never be available for them to pick.

Those idle kids in the brigade had their eyes on these wild fruits long ago.

Wherever there are ripe fruits, they pick them in advance.

Even on the mountain where they often went to gather firewood, there were very few traces of ripe wild fruits.

After Hu Meiling found out, she stopped fantasizing about picking the fruit herself.

In Lingbei, although fruit is scarce, she still cherishes her life.

So, for the rest of the time, she simply explained things to Shen Mu Ning in detail.

"Shen, you don't recognize any of these wild fruits?"

Hu Meiling watched as Shen Mu Ning took out the wild fruits from her basket one by one.

That's when I realized that most of them were raspberries, blueberries, and goat's milk fruit.

There were also some doughnuts, and some other wild fruits wrapped in large leaves.

Upon hearing this, Shen Mu Ning simply explained to her, "Among these, the ones I recognize are goat milk fruit, raspberry, blueberry, and noodle fruit."

"So I pick more of these kinds of wild fruits."

"But I don't recognize any of these wild fruits that are wrapped in large leaves."

"We didn't know if they were edible, so we wrapped them all in leaves."

Although Shen Mu Ning had previously used her wood-type ability to test the other wild fruits, none of them were poisonous.

Logically speaking, she should be more careful when dealing with wild fruits she doesn't recognize.

Since we've brought all of these back, we still need to take precautions.

Hu Meiling stared speechlessly at the basket that was more than half full of wild fruit. Had she picked a lot?

In her opinion, it's probably a few hundred million.

She reached out and opened the leaves that wrapped the wild fruits, revealing that they were all common wild fruits found in northern Lingbei.

Seeing all this, she couldn't help but admire it, because it was all edible.

You should know that Shen Mu Ning came from Hai Shi and didn't recognize these wild fruits at all, yet she was able to accurately pick only the edible ones.

When Zhang Jiayang saw these wild fruits, he couldn't move on.

Although his family packed him some canned food when he came, it can't compare to fresh fruit.

"Shen Zhiqing, can we eat all of these?" He was no longer concerned with seeking revenge against Xu Ji for the prank.

I just wanted to stay here and see if I could get some fruit to eat.

"You're still asking, but all of these are edible. Just wash them and eat them yourself."

Shen Mu Ning only discovered today that Zhang Jia Yang was actually a hidden foodie.

Having been tricked by Xu Ji into trying kimchi before, she is now eager to try wild fruits.

But he was the one who carried these wild fruits back with him, so it's okay for him to eat some.

Zhang Jiayang was overjoyed and obediently took only the few wild fruits that Shen Muning had mentioned.

He realized that no matter what you do, you have to listen to experienced people.

Otherwise, you'll end up like him, getting ripped off badly.

Hu Meiling watched with amusement as Zhang Jiayang, standing to the side, filled a basin with water, washed the food, and began to eat.

"Zhang Zhiqing, you're just eating over there?"

Hu Meiling could tolerate him eating quietly on the side, but what could she do when he kept staring at her?

Shen Mu Ning now understood that it was probably because he and Chu Ming Xu had seen many wild fruits in the deep mountains.

But he was new here and didn't know anyone, so he didn't dare to eat anything indiscriminately.

Now, Hu Meiling is about to explain to him whether these wild fruits are edible.

So he decided to listen along, thinking that he could eat without worry in the forest from then on.

Just as Shen Mu Ning had thought, Zhang Jiayang needed to learn from him.

Thinking back to today in the deep mountains, missing out on so many wild fruits, my heart bleeds.

“Hu Zhiqing, don’t worry about him. He doesn’t recognize these wild fruits either, so he just wants to hear you tell him about them.”

Shen Mu Ning didn't want to continue the argument, since Zhang Jia Yang's presence wouldn't affect them anyway.

Moreover, with everyone watching, there was nothing to gossip about.

When Hu Meiling heard Shen Muling say that, she suddenly realized that they were all educated youth who had been sent to the countryside this year.

Therefore, it is quite normal not to recognize some wild fruits unique to Lingbei.

However, after these four educated youths arrived, the only thing they caused was the incident involving Cao Jin.

They work diligently every day and almost never cause trouble.

She almost forgot that they were all new educated youth.

Oh well, teaching one person is the same as teaching two, so it doesn't really matter.

"Alright, let me tell you about the wild fruits that Shen, the educated youth, picked."

"The most common fruits are blueberries, goat's milk fruit, raspberries, and wheat berries. Zhang, you must remember these."

She knew that Shen Mu Ning recognized these kinds of wild fruits, so she focused on introducing them to Zhang Jia Yang.

The two of them need to remember these wild fruits.

"The rest of these, this is called sorghum fruit, this is wild apple..."

Hu Meiling finished introducing all the fruits and told them that they were all edible.

Zhang Jiayang expressed his admiration, after all, Shen Mu Ning, who was visiting the north for the first time, picked wild fruits that were all edible.

Moreover, according to Hu Meiling, these are almost all the wild fruits that can be eaten this season.

He had already told Chu Mingxu about his suspicions about Shen Mu Ning today, but he hadn't received any answers.

Seeing her outstanding performance now, I can hardly suppress my doubts anymore.

Even if she is the orphan of a martyr, she shouldn't be this outstanding.
