Jiang He looked at the colorful mushrooms on the ground with some disappointment, smacked his lips, and said, "If only these mushrooms were edible, they would be a waste to grow here."
Jiang Wanwan: ......
It won't go to waste; she can pick them and sell them for money.
"Sister, let's look around here and see if there are any more wild mushrooms."
Jiang Wanwan nodded, "Okay."
The brother and sister separated. Jiang Wanwan walked to a broad-leaved tree, parted the grass in front of her, and revealed white-gray termite mushrooms inside.
Jiang Wanwan put the basket on the ground and carefully picked the mushrooms.
[Ding! Genuine wild premium termite mushroom detected, priced at 180 yuan per jin (500g), weighing 3 liang (150g), totaling 54 yuan. Do you wish to sell?]
Jiang Wanwan turned her head and glanced at Jiang He, who was engrossed in picking mushrooms not far behind her. She then clicked "Yes".
With a ding-dong, another 54 yuan was deposited into my account.
Even a mosquito's leg may be small, but it's still meat! Jiang Wanwan didn't mind at all.
Taking advantage of Jiang Xun's inattention, Jiang Wanwan quickly and carefully plucked the Bodhi seed that was not far from her.
[Ding! Genuine wild premium Boletus luridus has been detected, priced at 118 yuan per jin (500g). Total price: 118 yuan. Would you like to sell?]
Jiang Wanwan clicked "yes," and another sum of money was deposited into her account on the floating panel.
"Little sister, did you pick any mushrooms?" Jiang He's voice rang out from behind.
Jiang Wanwan wiped away a bead of sweat. Luckily, she had sold it earlier; otherwise, if Jiang Hezhun had seen the Bodhi seed disappear from her hands, he wouldn't have been able to explain it away.
Making money is urgent, but it's better to be cautious. Jiang Wanwan thought to herself.
Seeing that her hands were covered in mud, she realized it wouldn't do to have picked nothing. So, she quickly plucked a wild mushroom from the ground to distract Jiang He, "Second Brother, is this mushroom edible?"
When Jiang He saw the mushrooms in Jiang Wanwan's hand, his face turned pale. He ran over and swatted the wild mushrooms out of Jiang Wanwan's hand.
“Sister, these mushrooms are poisonous, you can’t eat them! Wang the Bald from our village ate these poisonous mushrooms and claimed that he saw a beautiful fairy who was begging to be his wife. In the end, he even foamed at the mouth. If he hadn’t been given a strong broth to make him vomit up the mushrooms, Wang the Bald would not have survived.”
Jiang He still felt lingering fear when he thought about it.
"Golden Soup? What is Golden Soup? It can even detoxify?" Jiang Wanwan asked blankly.
Jiang He hesitated for a moment, then said, "You'll find out later."
He pointed to the mushrooms on the ground and said, "The more colorful and beautiful these mushrooms are, the more poisonous they are."
His words trailed off as he scratched his head, looking bewildered. "Huh? Weren't there lots of poisonous mushrooms on the ground just now? Where are they? Did I remember wrong?"
Jiang Wanwan looked at him innocently, "Really? Second brother, you must be mistaken. This is all I see."
"Uh, then I must have misremembered," Jiang He nodded and said.
Poor Jiang He thought he had a bad memory and never imagined that it was his younger sister who picked the poisonous mushrooms.
Without giving it much thought, he turned around and continued digging for mushrooms.
"Second brother, you stay here and dig. I'll go look around and see if there are any wild vegetables." Jiang Wanwan wanted to find a place by herself to dig for wild vegetables and pick mushrooms to earn more money.
Jiang He naturally refused. He was worried that his sister would be in danger if she was alone.
After much persuasion from Jiang Wanwan, who even mentioned that she knew some martial arts, Jiang He finally reluctantly agreed.
