The three of them went to the mountain where they often chopped firewood. Qiao Mo went to pick mushrooms in a place suitable for mushroom growth, while Kang Mingyuan and Han Yimo went to a place with more firewood to chop firewood. Although the three of them did not go up the mountain together, they did their own things on the mountain.
Qiao Mo filled his backpack first, and then went to a place where they couldn't see, took out firewood, cut down a few bundles of small trees and put them into the space. At the same time, he picked the mushrooms he saw and put them into the space. At the agreed time, he went to meet Kang Mingyuan and the others.
"Mo Mo, we also picked a lot of mushrooms." After the three of them met up, Han Yimo showed off by taking out a few strings of mushrooms strung with straw and giving them to Qiao Mo.
"Brother Mo is getting more and more capable." Qiao Mo took it and held it in his hand.
"Actually, most of them were picked by Brother Yuan." Han smiled embarrassedly.
"You are all very capable." Qiao Mo looked at Kang Mingyuan and gave him a smile.
"Come on, let's go home." Kang Mingyuan smiled back at her and handed her a bag of goat milk apples wrapped in banana leaves. "I came across two goat milk apple trees and picked all of them back."
Qiao Mo took the goat milk tea and said, "Thank you, Brother Yuan. There are not many goat milk teas here. I didn't expect Brother Yuan to be so lucky."
"Yes, I have never seen it before. I didn't expect to be so lucky today." Kang Mingyuan nodded to her affirmatively, indicating that these goat milk apples were indeed picked today and not taken out from the storage beads.
Qiao Mo nodded, indicating that she understood. Although there were not many goat milk eggs in the mountains, they still existed, but they were hard to come by.
When they returned to the educated youth site, Tang Xinmei had already prepared the meal. After they had their meal, they cleaned the mushrooms together, spread them out on the flat ground with a sieve to dry, and then the bell for work rang.
Before they even reached the threshing ground where they had gathered, they heard people talking about it.
"I don't know who threw Captain Li and Goudan into the stinking ditch. Fortunately, it was summer, otherwise they would have frozen to death." Someone sighed.
"I don't know who they have offended to deserve such a prank. That's a stinky ditch. If they soak in it overnight, they will stink. I don't know how much water it will take to wash it clean." Some people gloated.
"After spending a night in there, they won't freeze to death or drown, but they will stink to death. I don't know how long they will go without food." Someone said lightly. He felt sick just thinking about spending a night in such a smelly ditch.
"You're right. I feel sick just thinking about it, let alone staying there for a night," someone echoed.
"What's the situation in that stinking ditch?" Qiao Mo asked Tang Xinmei in a low voice. She had never been there before and definitely didn't know the situation there.
"There is a ditch in the southwest of the village. I don't know what's wrong with it. The water in it is not deep, but it smells very bad. I heard it smells worse than a toilet." Tang Xinmei also answered in a low voice.
"Hasn't it been cleaned?"
"It has been cleaned, but it will become smelly again soon. Over time, no one has cleaned it, and the water inside has become smellier and smellier. I'm not saying it can stink for ten miles against the wind, but it can still stink for two or thirty meters. So, people try to avoid that place when going out," Chen explained.
"I don't know which great man was so righteous and acted on behalf of Heaven, throwing these two evildoers in there. It's really gratifying."
