"How did you pick so many? I walked for a long time before I could only pick two buds."
Wei Lin was also in disbelief and subconsciously hid the crooked melons and cracked dates in his hand behind him. The cap of the chicken mushroom he picked was cracked and had insect holes, and the edges were rotten, which was really dirty.
He asked in surprise, "Were these found nearby?"
Yun Yuan nodded. "To be precise, it's within a radius of 20 meters. There are a lot of Alstonia arborescens here. If we look for it a little longer, we should be able to find more."
It was four o'clock in the afternoon. Xie Yichen and Wei Lin had clearly not yet gotten enough picking. Thinking that it would take some time for the sun to set, they said in unison, "Let's look for more!"
Yun Yuan brought a basket and weaved three wicker baskets, and now one of the wicker baskets is empty.
She said, "You can continue picking. You can pick them later."
The two people were overjoyed and nodded excitedly.
Yun Yuan stood up and said, "I've looked around here. I know a small path back to the village. Let's go there and take a look."
"Okay." Xie Yichen was eager to try. Seeing Yun Yuan leading them to where Wei Lin had walked, he hurriedly said, "Wait, we've looked over there, and there aren't any chicken mushrooms."
Wei Lin said with certainty, "Yes, the person filming the scene and I have searched everywhere, but we haven't found any."
Yun Yuan looked at him with a complicated expression, and pointed a slender white finger at the side of the road: "Look, what is that?"
"Chicken mushroom!" Xie Yichen and Wei Lin exclaimed together, then ran over happily.
"Wei Lin, you didn't even see such a big nest. Are you blind?" Xie Yichen cursed him in a low voice.
"What are you arguing about?" Wei Lin asked, "You didn't see it just now either. If it weren't for Jiancao reminding you, would you have been able to see it?"
That’s true.
Xie Yichen thought that Xiao Ji had some metaphysics in him.
Yun Yuan found a shady spot to stay. Glancing out of the corner of her eye, she called out to them, "Have you finished plucking the mushrooms? There's a nest of chicken mushrooms here too."
Another one?! The two of them quickened their pace and ran over excitedly.
But they soon lost their excitement because Yun Yuan discovered several more large nests. They could not pick the eggs as fast as she discovered them, and they were suddenly in a panic.
Seeing that the wicker basket was soon full, Yun Yuan nimbly wove a few more, and the three of them picked the fruits as they walked, and finally even the cameraman came over to help.
When the sun went down and they stood at the entrance of the village, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Xie Yichen put the two baskets on the ground, and there was another on his back. He shook his sore wrist lightly and sighed, "Finally, I'm done picking. I'm going to soak my hands in hot water when I get home."
Yun Yuan was holding the lightest basket in her hand. Just because she took a closer look, she found that there was a nest of chicken mushrooms in front of her, which was particularly conspicuous in the afterglow of the sunset.
She shrugged, "There's another nest over there. You decide whether you want it or not."
Of course!
Xie Yichen gritted his teeth and decided to do it.
This work lasted from dusk till night, as if a switch had been turned on. Chicken mushrooms appeared in clusters along the way. By the end of the picking, everyone was numb.
By the time we arrived at Yun Yuan's house, there were already more than a dozen baskets of chicken mushrooms, and everyone, including the photographer, was carrying chicken mushrooms.
"How do we deal with so many chicken mushrooms?" Xie Yichen asked.
"Eat some of it today, and the rest can be sold or made into oily chicken mushrooms. Once it's done, I'll give a few bottles to everyone here." Yun Yuan said.
Xiao Cheng was surprised and said, "Do we have it too?"
Yun Yuan nodded: "Both."
When Old Mrs. Xu heard the noise outside, she rushed out in a hurry.
"Bitch, what did you bring these people back for? There's no food for you at home!"
The joyful atmosphere was broken and everyone fell silent.
Old Lady Xu continued, "If you agree to get married to Xue Huaiyun, then I can let you continue to eat at home. If you don't agree, don't even think about eating a grain of rice at home."
"You old woman are so unreasonable." Xie Yichen frowned. "Bitch is your granddaughter. It's fine if you don't support her, but why do you still force her like this?"
"Xue Huaiyun is not a good man. Everyone has seen that his room is full of photos of Lin Weiwei. How can a bitch like you have a good life if she marries him?" Wei Lin said.
"I don't care. I promised the child marriage and I can't break my promise." Old Lady Lin insisted: "No matter what, Lin Jiancao must marry me."
Yun Yuan hated Old Lady Xu's unreasonable behavior. As soon as Old Lady Xu appeared, her good mood after picking up the chicken mushrooms was ruined.
She said, "If you really want to do this, then I will ask the Women's Federation to come and have tea with you, and by the way, I will ask the police to file a case. I suspect that I was abducted and sold, and I want to find my biological parents."
Old Mrs. Xu's pupils shrank, and after she realized what was happening, she quickly decided to turn the tables.
"I just wanted you to get married, and you're so heartless as to disown me? Lin Jiancao, I raised you with all my might, and this is how you repay me?"
"Is what you're doing now something a grandmother should do?" Yun Yuan said, "I only believe in science. If you try to stop me again, I'll call the police."
"Good, now you have someone backing you up, and you're getting stronger." Old Lady Xu glared at Xie Yichen and Wei Lin fiercely, and the two glared back at her unwillingly.
Old Mrs. Xu was extremely angry, but she could do nothing about them.
She tried to save face by herself: "Forget it, if you don't like to hear what I say, then I won't say much. Anyway, I'm doing this for your own good. Don't be fooled by the glamorous appearance of outsiders. You will regret it later."
After saying that, she turned around and went back to the room, closed the door, and did not come out until Xie Yichen and Wei Lin left.
