A small breakfast shop in the street market, supporting the family and making money

With the company of the three dogs, Dahuang, Dahei and Erhei, Leng Yan was not afraid to go into the mountains alone. She broke off a branch and walked up the mountain. She saw a slightly raised arc on the dead branches and weeds.

It had just rained two days ago, and the temperature in the mountains was more humid than outside, which was particularly suitable for the growth of mushrooms. Therefore, Leng Yan could see a few mushrooms by just pulling through the weeds.

Leng Yan was so happy that she could hardly stop smiling. She cleared her mind and picked up half a basket in just a short while.

Suddenly Leng Yan pulled aside another piece of weeds and found that it was not the hazel mushroom or boletus that she had just picked up. She took a closer look and found that it was actually Matsutake.

That’s right, it’s Matsutake!

After Leng Yan confirmed it, she was so happy that she jumped up and down.

Matsutake, this is a delicacy of the highest quality!

In an instant, she ignored everything else, picked up a wooden stick beside her, and carefully dug out a complete, top-quality matsutake mushroom from the mud. She held it in her hand and admired it for a long time.

After getting a matsutake, she wanted to dig a second one. However, she didn’t know if it was because of bad luck or because matsutake was rare, but she picked up a lot of other mushrooms but didn’t find any matsutake.

Suddenly, she glanced at the three dogs next to her, and instantly had an idea: Matsutake mushrooms have a unique fragrance.

So she let the three dogs smell the scent of the matsutake mushrooms carefully, and negotiated with them in a nice tone.

"Remember the smell, right? If you lead me to find it, I'll reward you with a big bone when you get home."

In an instant, the three dogs barked a few times, and then they scattered.

After a while, Dahuang stopped at a place and barked.

Leng Yan immediately ran to see, and sure enough, she found a matsutake mushroom at Dahuang's feet. She happily touched Dahuang's head and started digging immediately.

Afterwards, Dahei and Erhei also found matsutake mushrooms. Leng Yuan was so happy that he never got tired of it and was almost addicted to digging them.

It was not until Gu Yin came into the mountains to look for her that she realized it was already very late. The sun had long since disappeared behind the mountains, leaving only the rosy glow in the sky.

“So many mushrooms!”

Gu Yin looked at her in surprise.

"Well, because these mushrooms are super delicious!"

Leng Yan tilted her head back, looking particularly proud.

Gu Yin looked at her with amusement, put the basket on his shoulder and motioned for her to go first.

"It's getting dark, let's go home quickly, the mountain road will be difficult to walk on soon."

Dahuang walked in front to lead the way, followed by Leng Yan, then Guyin and finally Dahei and Erhei.

It was not until she was halfway there that Leng Yan realized that she had clearly sneaked out of the mountain without telling anyone. How could Gu Yin find her so accurately?

Then Leng Yan reacted again. What if he saw her calling Dahuang, Dahei and Erhei, and then saw her going out from the back door? It would take only a moment for him to realize that she was going up the mountain.

When the two arrived home, three tables had already been set up in the yard.

There were many people eating at their house today, and it was too stuffy to sit inside, so they simply put the table in the yard, which was spacious and cool.

Seeing that the dishes were almost all on the table, Leng Yan quickly took the basket from Gu Yin's shoulder and ran to the kitchen.

Leng Huai, Leng Cang and Leng Qi, who had just been picked up from school by Leng Xun, were very curious when they saw this and followed Leng Yan into the kitchen.

Mushrooms are delicate and their flavor will be greatly reduced if left overnight. Hazel mushrooms and the like can be dried and preserved. Leng Yan was thinking of eating this Matsutake mushroom tonight.

But there were too few matsutake mushrooms, so she mixed them with some other mushrooms and cleaned them.

Just then Leng Huai and the others followed into the kitchen, so Leng Yan grabbed Lao Zhuangli and asked them to help clean the mushrooms, otherwise it would be very difficult for her to do it alone.

After washing the mushrooms, Leng Yan took the pan out and added lard. When the oil was hot, she poured in various mushrooms, stir-fried them, and added simple seasonings.

I stir-fried some mixed mushrooms, and when they were out of the pot, the aroma filled the whole yard, making people drool.

In the end, three large plates were filled to the brim. When they were served on the table, everyone, who had already been drooling with greed, couldn't wait to pick up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it in their mouths. How can I describe the feeling that momentarily felt?

The ultimate deliciousness, unimaginable deliciousness, simply rushes straight to the top of the head and spreads to every limb and bone.

“Delicious, delicious taste!”

Everyone couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, yes, this taste is really amazing, it tastes even better than meat!"

Leng Xun stared with his eyes wide open, and after taking a mouthful of rice, he was almost dazzled by the fragrance.

"It smells so good, so fresh and fragrant. My sister made it so delicious. It's really amazing!"

Leng Cang is a sister-con and he likes to praise her whenever he gets a chance.

The other children also echoed in agreement, especially Leng Jiaren and Leng Nianzhi. They had never experienced such a lively scene at home, so they adapted well to the current atmosphere and especially liked it.

"Mm, it is indeed delicious!"

Even Leng Kang, who often ate moldy bread and drank rainwater on the battlefield and now had no requirements for food, couldn't help but sigh at the deliciousness of mushrooms.

While Leng Kang was eating, he picked up a handful of mushrooms for his father and his wife.

There's nothing we can do. The unexpected mushrooms are too popular and we won't be able to eat them if we wait any longer.

After finishing the dinner, everyone was still reluctant to leave the delicious mushrooms.

The next day was the day for setting up the banquet. Leng Huai's private school was closed, so the Leng family got up early and started to get busy. Even the passing dogs had to be given something to do.

Leng Yan was worried about asking the dental clinic to find a shop, and was also concerned about Leng's snack shop, so she also had to deliver the vegetables purchased from the village last night to the shop.

So she calculated the time early in the morning, and drove the ox cart to the shop with her father. After unloading the vegetables from the basket, she gave instructions on some things.

"Aunt Liu, my parents and I are not here today. If you are too busy, you can prepare less food today and receive fewer guests instead of being too busy. That would be too tiring."

"Oh, okay, Auntie knows, you can rest assured."

Aunt Liu also knew that Leng Yan was not the kind of person who would be falsely polite and that he was truly caring about them, so she answered very straightforwardly.

Their family was also going to the Leng family for a banquet today, but her husband Zhan Hu was at home with their children. Aunt Liu didn't want to take a day off as it wasn't her day off, so she just said congratulations here.

After Leng Yan and her father thanked with a smile, they drove the ox cart to the dental clinic first. Unfortunately, they did not see the young man who received them yesterday when they arrived.

After asking other shop assistants, I learned that the shop assistant ran out in a hurry after coming to work in the morning, saying that he wanted to check something in the shop.

After hearing this, Leng Yan guessed that the young man probably wanted to complete their big order and had been busy with it since early morning.

"Okay, thank you very much, little brother. Please wait for the young man to come back and tell him that we were here. If he has any news, please go to the address I mentioned yesterday to let him know."

Leng Yan knew that this matter could not be rushed, so after expressing her gratitude, she and her father drove the ox cart back to the village.

As soon as they arrived home, the open space in front of the house was already filled with rows of tables, chairs and benches.
