Chapter 41 Mushroom Picking



When Xu Ning came back from the city, he saw Xu An and Xu Mo lying on the table writing. Xu Mo said, "Xu An is writing.

"Brother Lu, I miss you so much. When will you come? I went to the mountain to pick mushrooms today.

I picked a basket of them and dried them all. I will make soup for you when you come. My sister also pickled some cucumbers, which are delicious. She also dried some eggplants.

Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu are both fine, don't worry, we will take good care of them."

After Xu Mo finished speaking, he thought for a moment and said, "Second brother, let me add one more thing. Tell Brother Lu not to forget my bullet shell."

Xu Ning put the backpack on the bicycle in the kitchen and said with a smile, "Xiao Mo, I see you don't miss Brother Lu, you want the bullet shell."

When Xu Mo saw Xu Ning, he hurried over and said happily, "Sister, you're back?" while looking into the backpack.

Xu Ning gave him a piece of peach cake. She went to the city today to deliver some vegetables picked from the vegetable garden to Zhao Jianshe and Su Hongying.

Seeing Xu An put down his pen and walked over, he handed him another piece of peach cake and asked, "Write another letter to Brother Lu."

Xu An said, "I wrote a letter to Brother Lu, and a letter to Brother Lu. Sister, please add a few words to the end!"

"Just tell them that everything is fine and that they don't need to send money or tickets. There is enough money at home. Let them buy more food for themselves," Xu Ning said as he took things out of the backpack.

"Why are there so many mushrooms drying outside? Are there many on the mountain now?"

The two excitedly told Xu Ning, "Sis, there are so many, we can't pick them all up. Jianmin and I have agreed to continue picking them up in the afternoon. Sis, do you want to go?"

Xu Ning had originally planned to pick the beans from his private plot and dry them in the sun in the afternoon, but after hearing what the two said, he asked Xu An to cook.

She is going to pick the beans now, and will go to the mountain to pick mushrooms in the afternoon. The mushrooms are delicious when cooked into soup after being dried. Last year they picked a big bag and ate it all before the New Year.

Not long after the three of them went up the mountain in the afternoon, many aunties and sisters from the village also came. Xu Ning asked Xu An and Xu Mo to pick up the trash on the mountain while she carried it down the mountain. She ran fast.

Xu Ning poured the mushrooms from his backpack onto the open space at the door to dry.

When I saw Chen Xiangdong and Sun Hao tidying up their private plots, I told them that there were a lot of mushrooms on the mountain these days and asked them if they wanted to go pick some.

She went to say something to Wei Lanlan and Yang Xiaomei, and they followed her up the mountain with backpacks in their hands.

Xu Ning and his friends picked mushrooms for two days in a row. Grandpa Qi took Lu's father and mother to the mountain to pick mushrooms for a day. Later, it became difficult to find mushrooms on the mountain.

The adults in the village no longer go up the mountain. Only a few half-grown children carry baskets to the mountain every day to look for mushrooms and pick wild fruits.

There is still some time before the autumn harvest, and there is not much work to do in the fields, so Xu Ning often takes his two younger brothers to the mountains to dig wild vegetables, pick fungus, and pick mushrooms.

Wei Lanlan and Yang Xiaomei often went up the mountain with Xu Ning and his brother to tell them about the recent events in the Youth League.

"Lin Qiuhua fell in love with Yang Wenli. When she secretly gave Yang Wenli eggs, she was seen by Gu Wenjing, and the two of them started fighting on the spot.

Gu Wenjing scratched Lin Qiuhua's face, causing it to bleed. Later, Gu Wenping and Yang Wenli took him to the village clinic.

Now Lin Qiuhua and Gu Wenjing quarrel whenever they are together, so Gu Wenping told Lin Miao to let Gu Wenjing live with her for a while.

Lin Miao disagrees, and the two are having a conflict now," Wei Lanlan gossiped to Xu Ning.

After that, he leaned close to Xu Ning's ear and whispered mysteriously, "I think Yang Wenli likes Lin Miao.

I once saw the way Yang Wenli looked at Lin Miao, and it was so corny that it gave me goosebumps. When he looked at Gu Wenjing, he always had an impatient expression.

Xu Ning thought to himself, Sister, you guessed right, there are still some entanglements with the people behind.
