Rivers and lakes flow freely: ...
They won't even give me a chance to try collecting eggs!
Jiang Wanwan walked up to Jiang Jiang and Jiang He and said, "Big brother, second brother, let's go up the mountain to dig for wild vegetables."
As long as she's rich enough, why should she worry about not being able to afford a fried egg!
She decided to first go up the mountain and develop her resources stealthily. With enough balance in her account, eating fried chicken and drinking cola wouldn't be a problem!
The Jiang brothers naturally had no objections.
After witnessing Jiang Wanwan catch two "wild chickens" on the mountain and let them eat chicken, "follow your sister and you'll have meat to eat" has become the motto of the two of them.
"Let's go get the baskets," the two brothers said excitedly, turning quickly and walking towards the main room.
"Big brother, second brother, help me get a basket too," Jiang Wanwan said quickly to the two of them.
There was a strong gaze emanating from him that Jiang Wanwan couldn't ignore.
Turning around, she found Jiang Xun staring intently at her.
Jiang Wanwan was speechless. "What? You want to come with us to dig for wild vegetables and pick mushrooms?"
Jiang Xun pursed her lips, slightly raised her chin, and said arrogantly, "Hmph, since you want me to go so badly, then I'll reluctantly agree to go with you."
Jiang Wanwan: ......
Even more arrogant than a Persian cat!
"Jiang Xun, just say you want to go." Jiang Hu rolled her eyes at Jiang Xun.
"Hmph, mind your own business," Jiang Xun glared back.
Jiang Hu ignored Jiang Xun and turned to Jiang Wanwan, saying, "Sister, I'll go up the mountain with you to dig for wild vegetables and catch pheasants!"
After tasting the sweet and rich chicken soup, Jiang Hu wanted to drink chicken soup and eat chicken meat at every meal.
Jiang moved her lips slightly, then left after saying, "I'm going back to my room to read."
After the rain stopped, the men of the Jiang family also went to the fields to fertilize and tend to the crops. They carried hoes and loads of manure as they left their homes.
After Jiang Wanwan and the other children put their baskets on their backs, they greeted Grandma Jiang and the others. Madam Hu and Madam Lu gave them a few earnest instructions, telling them not to go into the inner part of the mountains to avoid encountering dangerous wild animals. Only then did they leave the house.
After the rain stopped, the sky was clear, and a ray of golden light shone on the earth.
Meanwhile, the fields to the east were bustling with activity. Every household was busy tending to their crops, while the young children squatted obediently on the paths between the fields, watching their parents tend to the crops.
Soon, Jiang Wanwan and her group of five arrived at the foot of the mountain.
The mountain road was steep and the surface was still muddy and difficult to walk on.
Jiang Wanwan, Jiang Jianghe, and the other two had already climbed the mountain that morning, so their ascent was much faster. Jiang Xun and Jiang Hu, however, found the climb extremely difficult.
Either Jiang Xun tripped and fell flat on his face, or Jiang Hu took a nasty fall.
This back-and-forth trip wasted a lot of time.
Finally, Jiang Wanwan asked Jiang Jiang to accompany Jiang Xun and Jiang Hu as they slowly climbed the mountain, while she and Jiang He went ahead.
None of them objected.
Jiang He often went up the mountain with Hu Shi, so he was naturally familiar with this mountain.
He led Jiang Wanwan through the mountains, passing by the place where they had picked mushrooms that morning.
"Huh, where did those poisonous mushrooms go? I remember there were lots of colorful poisonous mushrooms here this morning," Jiang He said, scratching his head in confusion.
Jiang Wanwan touched her nose and made up a story, "Um, maybe someone picked it and threw it away."
“Yes, my sister is right, that’s how it should be,” Jiang He said.
Then, he led Jiang Wanwan through a maze of twists and turns to another place.
Colorful mushrooms were scattered all over the ground. In Jiang He's eyes, these mushrooms were as poisonous as scorpions, but in her eyes, they were just piles of silver!
