Shen Mingxi smiled, then looked at Shen Qingshan and whispered, "Second brother, you still have to keep an eye on Second Aunt. She will definitely take away half a basket of mushrooms and send it back to her parents' home tomorrow."
Anger gathered in Shen Qingshan's eyes, and he suddenly remembered that the mushrooms in the past were all picked by their eldest son, but they were lucky enough to be able to have a few bites.
However, Ji Daju could give the mushrooms they had picked with great effort to her family members.
There was a bit of violent aura about him.
Shen Mingxi pressed Shen Qingshan's hand, looked at him, and said softly, "Second brother, you will have a hard time tomorrow."
Under his sister's clear gaze, Shen Qingshan's violence and anger gradually disappeared, and then he grinned, "Don't worry, I won't give them any!"
In the past, let’s not talk about it, their eldest wife was stupid, but from now on, it will never be like this again!
The next morning, the sun was still shining brightly.
Wu Zhaodi made breakfast. While she was cooking, Old Lady Shen just watched and refused to help. She was extremely angry, but she couldn't vent it out.
He could only vent his anger on Baozhen, who was bending over to make a fire.
"…Useless thing, all you do is eat all day, sooner or later I'll make you mad to death!"
Shen Baozhen lowered her head even lower.
Old Lady Shen glanced at Wu Zhaodi and scolded, "Old Third, you better be quiet. You are useless. You two were picking mushrooms yesterday. Look at what you picked. There were rotten, bad, and poisonous mushrooms. You are no match for Old Lady Wu at the village head."
As she said this, she rolled her eyes and said, "Let Baozhen go with Death Star and the others today, and don't just sit there and eat for free."
Shen Baozhen said nothing.
When the Shen family was not working in the fields, they only had two meals a day.
However, it is not possible in summer, and there is no work on the land, but there is still a lot of work in the private plots.
Normally, it was the people from the eldest house who went to work, but the three laborers all went up the mountain, leaving Shen Qingshan to take care of Shen Yu.
So Old Man Shen prepared to take Shen Jun to take a look at his private plot.
Of course you have to get up early to work in the summer.
So I still have to prepare three meals as usual, and I have to go back to work as usual tomorrow.
Shen Mingxi whispered to Shen Qingshan, "Later, ask Goudan to deliver a pot of mushrooms to each of Aunt Zhang, Aunt Su, and Third Grandpa's house. Go quietly and don't let Grandma and the others see you."
"Okay, I got it. Xiaoxi, you guys be careful when you go up the mountain." Shen Qingshan warned worriedly.
Breakfast was steamed steamed bread.
Taking turns to cook has become a foregone conclusion for the time being. It is impossible for Grandma Shen to let her old man go hungry every day.
So she stood by and directed Wu Zhaodi on what to do.
While teaching, he was feeling extremely hateful in his heart. He became more and more annoyed with Wu Zhaodi and really wanted to hit her with a fire poker.
In the whole Kaoshan Village, there is no other family like his. The daughter-in-law can't even cook, and it is the old woman who has to worry about everything.
At this time, Old Mrs. Shen would never think that this was all the result of her own actions.
Shen Mingxi stood in the yard and looked at the kitchen with a hint of sarcasm on his lips.
Afterwards, he took a few steamed buns and put them in a wicker basket. Just like yesterday, Shen Mingxi washed three cucumbers and took some water. Just as he was about to walk out of the yard, Shen Baozhen ran over panting, also carrying a basket on her back.
"I'll go with you, too."
Shen Mingxi glanced at Shen Baozhen. She didn't have much interaction with Baozhen from her third uncle's family, either in the past life or in this life.
I just know that she is also very bullied at home.
Shen Mingxi curled his lips and said, "If you are not afraid of being tired and can keep up with us, come on."
Although they were going to the mushroom circle they discovered yesterday, Shen Mingxi was not sure that no one had been there.
"Remember to follow us. It's very dangerous if you get lost."
"I understand, Second...Second Sister."
Although Shen Baozhen's voice was as small as a mosquito, it was still clear enough to hear.
The group of four went into the mountains.
Shen Mingxi was lucky again this time and arrived at the destination smoothly. Chen Li had been picking mushrooms for so many years, but this was the first time she saw such a big mushroom circle.
Today's thunder nest seems to be a little bigger than yesterday.
Each mushroom leg looks like a big chicken drumstick.
Just looking at it makes me want to take a bite.
Without saying anything, several people squatted down and began to pick the fruits carefully again.
To be honest, it was the first time for Shen Baozhen to walk such a long mountain road, but she was indeed in a relaxed mood. She was very depressed at home and was always cautious.
But it’s different in this big mountain forest.
Everything is relaxing.
It was as if the Shen family at the foot of the mountain no longer existed.
It was also the first time for her to see such a large mushroom circle, and there were so many piles and clusters of mushrooms, so she started picking them.
At this time, Ji Daju packed herself up and prepared to go back to her parents' home.
I had agreed with Old Lady Shen in advance to take half a basket of mushrooms to her parents' home. Naturally, Ji Daju's parents' home was a relative of Old Lady Shen.
Although Mrs. Shen was not very happy, she reluctantly agreed.
Because she also knew that the two brothers and sisters from the eldest house encountered a mushroom circle yesterday, maybe they would pick a lot of them when they went up the mountain today. Besides, the four large baskets in the yard were not a small number.
Just like in previous years, Ji Daju treated all of these as her own property and did not take Shen Qingshan and Goudan, who were drying mushrooms there, seriously at all.
Naturally, he didn't notice that Shen Qingshan was holding a stick in his hand.
Ji Daju came to the sunny side of the yard with a wicker basket. The ground was covered with straw mats woven by Shen Jiawen and Shen Qingshan, and the straw mats were filled with cleanly picked mushrooms.
They are all minefields, all clean.
In order to facilitate drying, they are cut into two halves, but even so, the short and plump mushroom legs that look like chicken legs are still mouth-watering.
Even for Ji Daju, it was the first time she had seen mushrooms of such good quality.
There was a hint of joy between his brows.
Just as he was about to reach out to grab it, a black wooden stick appeared in front of him.
Then Shen Qingshan pushed Ji Daju back a step involuntarily with force without any hesitation.
Ji Daju staggered and barely stood still. She looked up angrily and saw Shen Qingshan, whose face was calm and even had a half-smile on it.
These days, she had seen him quarrel, lose his temper, and overturn the table, but this was the first time she had seen Shen Qingshan smiling with a fake smile.
He was obviously only eighteen years old, but for some reason, when he took one look at her, he felt a chill run down his soles.
"Second Aunt, taking without asking is stealing."
Ji Daju finally reacted and yelled in anger, "What do you mean by taking without asking? What do you mean by stealing? You stupid kid, why are you talking so harshly? Aren't these all our things? What's wrong with me taking some? Besides, these were originally ours."
