The Snail Spirit Travels to the 1970s

But privately, he had no place to stay. His small house was lucky enough to be able to accommodate it. There was no way to dry a lot of mushrooms. It was not realistic to dry mushrooms in the shells because they would only rot and not dry out.

“Both wet and dry mushrooms are fine,” said Li Jiuniang.

"Okay!" Tian Tian nodded and agreed, "Then I'll go up the mountain to pick some wet mushrooms for you. I can't dry the dried mushrooms for you."

Li Jiuniang nodded indifferently.

“But there has been no rain in the past few days, so there may be fewer mushrooms and they will taste a little older,” said Tian Tian.

"It's okay, just go and pick them. I'll take as many as you pick." Li Jiuniang said.

After saying that, Li Jiuniang thought for a moment and added, "I want any kind of mushrooms. Poisonous mushrooms are fine. I have a use for them."

After hearing this, Tian Tian didn't ask any further questions and just nodded in agreement.

Tian Tian was anxious to find Shen Lingling. After saying goodbye to Li Jiuniang, she went to find Shen Lingling while humming a little tune.

I'm going to go up the mountain to pick mushrooms tomorrow morning, so I can earn some money.

Shen Lingling's house is not far from Tian Tian's house. After Tian Tian and Li Jiuniang said goodbye, they soon arrived at Shen Lingling's house.

Mother Shen had just woken up from her nap and smiled when she saw Tian Tian. "Tian Tian is here?"

"Auntie, is Lingling awake?" Tian Tian asked.

"She hasn't woken up yet, so just go inside and wait." Tian Tian is a frequent visitor here, and the Shen family is quite familiar with Tian Tian. Tian Tian is quite casual here and doesn't need them to greet her specially.

"Then I'll go in." Tian Tian said hello to Mother Shen and went into the west room.

Shen Lingling was the only one in the room, sleeping soundly on the kang.

Tian Tian didn't plan to wake her up and just sat there in a daze.

"Drink some water!" Mother Shen brought in a bowl of water for Tian Tian.

"Thank you, Auntie!" Tian Tian took the water and drank it politely. She was surprised to find that the water in her mouth tasted sweet. "Is there any sugar in it?"

"Yes, I put some in," Shen's mother said with a smile, "Lingling brought back a lot of things this time, including a small bag of sugar. My family put some in the water for you."

Tian Tian nodded. "Thank you, Auntie. It tastes very sweet."

After delivering the water, Mother Shen went out to work.

Tian Tian put the water aside and didn't take a second sip. The water was too sweet. She didn't know how much sugar Mother Shen put in it. It was so sweet that the water felt a little sticky.

Tian Tian was bored waiting here. Although she came here often, this room was occupied by Shen Lingling's family and they kept their things together. Tian Tian couldn't move and could only sit on the kang and stare blankly.

Fortunately, Shen Lingling woke up quickly, "Tian Tian?"

When she opened her eyes and saw Tian Tian, ​​Shen Lingling was stunned for a moment, "When did you come? What time is it now?"

After she came back, she changed her clothes and fell asleep on the kang. She has been sleeping till now, sleeping till dawn, not having eaten lunch, and she doesn't know what time it is now.

"It should be around two o'clock now!" Tian Tian said. She left home at around one o'clock. On the way, she met Li Jiuniang and talked for a while. Then she came to Shen Lingling's house and waited for a while. It should be almost two o'clock now.

Shen Lingling sat up and woke up for a while. She was thirsty after sleeping for a whole morning. She saw a bowl of water next to her. She knew it was Tian Tian's, so she reached out and took the water and took a sip.

"Hmm!" As soon as she drank the water, Shen Lingling almost vomited it out. Fortunately, she held back and swallowed the water. She felt her already dry throat become even thirstier. "Why is this water so sweet?"

"My aunt poured it for me and put a lot of sugar in it," said Tian Tian.

"I also think it's too sweet and makes my throat burn, but my aunt poured it for me specially, so I can't say anything. Go get a bowl of water and we can drink it with this bowl of sugar water," said Tian Tian.

The water was so sweet that Tian Tian couldn't drink it alone.

After hearing this, Shen Lingling ran out with the bowl in her hand.

Not long after, Shen Lingling came in with a bowl in one hand and a bag of pastries wrapped in oil paper hooked on her little finger.

"Drink it quickly. I poured a lot of water in it this time. It must not be as sweet as before." Shen Lingling handed one of the bowls of water to Tian Tian.

"Here are some Beijing dim sum, you can try them!" Shen Lingling opened the oil paper package, revealing the dim sum inside.

Tian Tian looked at the Daoxiangcun logo and the iconic date paste cake on it. She didn't bother to be polite to Shen Lingling and took one and took a bite.

Tian Tian originally had great expectations when eating this date paste cake, but she didn't expect that it would feel so sweet as soon as it entered her mouth.

"Is it delicious?" Shen Lingling looked at Tian Tian expectantly.

Tian Tian swallowed the jujube paste cake in her mouth and nodded, "Delicious!"

Although this date paste cake is indeed a little too sweet for Tian Tian, ​​Tian Tian feels that cakes nowadays are actually quite sweet. It may also be because she hasn’t eaten sweet food for a long time and therefore cannot tolerate sugar.

But I have to say that this date paste cake tastes really good. The date paste has a very delicate texture and the skin is relatively soft, but it is just too sweet.

"I think it's delicious too. I put a lot in the two bags for you and Sister Tian Yun." Shen Lingling took credit for it with a smile.

"Thank you! But it must cost a lot of money to buy these, right?" Tian Tian asked.

Not to mention the money, but it must have cost a lot of food coupons. I don’t know where Shen Lingling got these food coupons from.

Shen Lingling coughed lightly, "These were all bought for you by Fang Siwen."

She originally thought that the five yuan that Tian Tian gave her was a lot, but when she arrived in Beijing she found that she could not buy anything with five yuan. She wanted to bring some things for her family, but she could only buy a little with five yuan, and she didn't even have any tickets.

When she first went to stay at the guesthouse, she swore to Fang Siwen that she would pay for it herself. However, when she arrived at the guesthouse, she found that the price of a night's stay in the guesthouse was very expensive. With the five yuan that Tian Tian gave her, she could probably only stay for two or three nights.

But Fang Siwen booked a room for her for five days without batting an eyelid. That was the first time that Shen Lingling clearly realized the gap between herself and Fang Siwen.

In the end, she could only use the five dollars to buy some movie tickets, or buy Fang Siwen an ice cream or a bottle of soda when they went to the park, but she didn't hold out for long and the five dollars was soon spent.

Even the gifts that Fang Siwen brought to the parents' meeting were bought by her.

"How do Fang Siwen's parents treat you?"
