Time always flies when you're busy; several days slip by in the blink of an eye.
That morning, Su Nanxi went up the mountain as usual, and without exception, a long tail followed behind him.
At the foot of the mountain, they encountered those children from out of town, and just barely passed by Su Nanxi and her group.
Su Nanxi glanced at them discreetly, quite curious as to how these people had come down from the mountain so quickly. They were carrying a bamboo basket that looked very old and worn, probably with a large hole that had been patched with new bamboo strips. Inside the basket were some white, gleaming things.
We didn't know each other, didn't greet each other, and just went our own way, so it didn't bother anyone.
After walking for a while, Su Nanxi suddenly remembered what was in their bamboo baskets and turned back to look.
Those behind, unaware of the situation, followed suit and looked back as well.
What are they looking at? They don't actually know either!
Nothing happened after that, everything was normal, there were no abnormalities, so I was puzzled.
Su Nanxi didn't notice their reactions. She was quickly calculating in her mind while her eyes scanned the surroundings, finally settling on a bamboo grove not far ahead.
While everyone else was still stunned, she took off running!
The people behind them instinctively started running as well. They wondered what was going on and looked up ahead, trying to figure out what was wrong!
Unfortunately, it was all in vain. They craned their necks and saw that everything was perfectly normal. The only abnormal thing was the person running at the very front!
Su Nanxi ran into the bamboo forest without saying a word, and looked around the bamboo forest floor as if she was looking for something, looking here and there.
This really confused them. Could it be that they've discovered something new?
But there's nothing special in the bamboo forest except bamboo and grass!
"Wife, what are you looking for? Tell me, and I'll help you look for it. That way, it'll be faster!" Mo Qinghe couldn't help but walk over to Su Nanxi's side.
Su Nanxi didn't answer. Suddenly, she found it, carefully picked it up, and handed it to Mo Qinghe. "Here! This is it! It's delicious, nutritious, and valuable!"
The others exclaimed, "Wow! This is amazing!"
They swarmed around, eager to see what it was!
"It looks so good! I know it must taste delicious!"
"Yes! It doesn't look like something we usually see. It looks a bit like a mushroom, but we don't think we've ever seen it before!"
"These don't look like things we can afford! If they're really valuable, we can look carefully and maybe find some to exchange for money."
"This is... bamboo fungus?! Ugly girl, where did you find this? This stuff is very valuable; even wealthy families might not be able to buy it. It's extremely precious! Quick, tell me, I need to pick a few!"
When Old Xu said that, everyone's eyes lit up, and they were eager to try it out, almost ready to rub their hands together!
Su Nanxi, of course, knew what this was. Since Old Man Xu had explained, she didn't say anything more and pointed to the ground in the bamboo forest, "It's on the ground in the bamboo forest, where it's covered with bamboo leaves..."
Before he could finish speaking, everyone dispersed, excitedly running off to find something new.
Perhaps it was good luck, but they actually found two baskets!
That's a lot!
Old Xu was so happy his eyes practically disappeared. Hmph, don't worry about his current appearance, he's happy, and he's willing to do it!
Unexpectedly, in his lifetime, he actually had the honor of personally picking bamboo fungus!
I'll have to brag about it when I get back!
Look at what those old men are saying, that you have to rob someone to buy it, but now he's picking it up all over the ground!
The freshest, best-looking, and tastiest ones—I picked up quite a lot!
This is something he should write down in his little notebook; it'll be a topic of conversation for him!
Look at him, he's only been here a few months, but his knowledge and experience have grown quite a bit!
These are things that those old men can't experience; they have no idea what it's like to be a clock!
I've heard that it's more exhilarating and profound than experiencing it firsthand!
Old Xu had indeed gathered quite a lot, so he walked with great swagger, his head almost reaching the sky!
"We'll keep some for ourselves, and take the rest to town to sell with the vegetables!" Su Nanxi said, looking at the bamboo fungus in the basket.
The others had no objections, but Old Xu was initially a little reluctant. He had gone to great lengths to collect them, and now he was selling them so quickly!
I can't bear to part with it!
It wasn't until Su Nanxi said that if they were lucky, they could still find some tomorrow that Old Man Xu thought for a moment before reluctantly agreeing.
Since we still have food, we might as well sell it!
We can always come back tomorrow!
If you can't find it, there's nothing you can do; it really depends on luck!
The group went to their vegetable garden and, as usual, went about their business.
Xiao Wu quickly returned with several baskets of green vegetables and two baskets of bamboo fungus. When he got to the field, he carried several more baskets of corn and sweet potato leaves, and finally headed to the town.
The donkey cart had a sunshade, so there was no need to worry too much about sunburn. Moreover, Xiao Wu drove like a maniac, treating the donkey like a horse, and they arrived in town in no time.
Once the handover is complete, you can return immediately.
However, he had a mission to complete and would not return until he finished the task assigned by his master.
On her way back, Su Nanxi encountered Chen Ahua. Chen Ahua was overjoyed to see Su Nanxi and ran over excitedly.
The suddenness of the greeting caused Su Nanxi to instinctively take two steps back. After realizing that Chen Ahua had only come over to say hello, she smiled.
Chen Ahua's complexion is better now; at least she has a genuine smile on her face, and her eyes and brows reveal the youthful vitality that a girl of her age should have!
Actually, Chen Ahua didn't have anything to do. When she saw Su Nanxi, she didn't know what to do. Before she could even think, her legs had already run over. When she got to Su Nanxi, she didn't know what to say. Finally, she managed to stammer, "Thank you, Su Su!"
And then, that was it.
He stood there stunned, a little embarrassed, not knowing what to say.
She suddenly realized that she had been abrupt and shouldn't have rushed over like that!
Ugh! How frustrating!
She's always been bad at expressing herself, and when she wants to say something, she doesn't know how to put it into words, making people think she's crazy!
Su Nanxi noticed her embarrassment, glanced at her basket, and said, "How much grass did you cut today? I saw you running back and forth several times! In this hot weather, you should take care of yourself, drink more water, and rest when you're tired! Don't overwork yourself!"
Su Nanxi said this casually to help her out of a difficult situation and ease the awkwardness, but it sounded different to Chen Ahua!
She felt that Su Nanxi cared about her a lot, and even knew how many times she had run away!
My heart was filled with overwhelming emotion!
Su Su is so good to her!
Then, without warning, Chen Ahua ran to Su Nanxi's side, leaned close to her ear, and whispered a few words.
"SuSu, I got the money! It's real money! And quite a lot!"
