Grandma Shen looked to the side, and suddenly her eyes lit up: "There are a lot of sunbird flowers over there. They are the best for making egg soup."

Liu Juan was also quite surprised: "There are sunbird flowers?"

"Let's go and take a look." Grandma Shen took the lead and walked in that direction.

The sunbird flower is somewhat similar to the yellow locust flower. It grows on trees. The leaves are very small. After withering, they turn red and hang on the tree. From a distance, they look like wolfberries.

Shen Xuening and Zhaozhou's mother picked the remaining fungus and followed.

Grandma Shen and Liu Juan had been picking for a while. Grandma Shen took off one of her clothes and put the sunbird flowers on the clothes. It looked like there were already a lot of them.

Zhaozhou's mother helped pick the fruits: "You guys are really quick. You've picked so many in just a short while."

Grandma Shen smiled and said, "There are many people at home, so pick more and take them back home. We will cook and eat wild vegetables at home in the evening."

Zhaozhou's mother immediately said, "Would you like to eat at my house?"

Grandma Shen refused repeatedly: "No, no, no, let's go home and cook for ourselves so that everyone can eat together."

Zhaozhou's mother was helpless: "Then I won't keep you here?"

Grandma Shen said, "We know. Don't be polite. If we want to have dinner at your house, we will take the initiative to stay even if you don't ask."

Zhaozhou's mother smiled and said, "Haha, that's good."

After they finished talking, Shen Xuening walked towards the mulberry tree nearby. The mulberry tree was very large, and was covered with deep purple fruits, the size of a thumb. When they were full and juicy, such mulberries could be sold at Yongle for twenty yuan per catty.

Without saying much, Shen Xue Ning reached out to pick it.

The mulberries burst with a slight touch, and the purple juice flows on the hands, emitting a mulberry fragrance.

Shen Xue Ning wanted to try one, but didn't wash it. These wild fruits had been crawled over by mosquitoes and ants, so they were dirty and a little difficult to eat, so she gave up in the end.

After picking a handful, she couldn't get any more. She looked around and saw a lotus growing nearby, so she picked a few lotus leaves.

With lotus leaves, you can pick mulberries as much as you want. The purple mulberries look pretty good on the green lotus leaves.

Seeing her here, Liu Juan walked over and said, "I didn't expect there would be such a big mulberry bubble here."

"I saw it by chance too. Let's pick some more and share them with everyone." Shen Xue Ning added, "Pick some more for Wen Xu. He's sure he'll like it."

Liu Juan was very pleased: "I can see that you care about Wenxu very much."

Shen Xue Ning said as a matter of course: "Of course, Wen Xu is my biological brother, who else can I love if I don't love him?"

Liu Juan said: "Wenxu is a blessed child."

Shen Xuening said: "To be my Shen Xuening's younger brother, you must be blessed."

Liu Juan nodded. "I'm going to pick some Houttuynia cordata over there and then go back to cook. Can you pick them by yourself?"

Shen Xuening is no longer a child, so she doesn't need special care: "Okay, Mom, you go."

Liu Juan turned and went to Grandma Shen's side. There was a ditch there, which was always filled with water. The water spinach around it grew very thick and tender. It would be a shame not to pick them.

She squatted down, reached out and grabbed the leaves of the Houttuynia cordata and pulled them up.

In this way, you cannot pull out the roots of the Houttuynia cordata. You can only pull out the leaves and a piece of Houttuynia cordata. Although it is not long, it is the most delicious part.

Liu Juan pulled out a large handful of them again and again.

She has been busy every day in recent years and hasn't picked wild vegetables like this for a long time. It feels pretty good.

Grandma Shen and Zhaozhou's mother were still picking sunbird flowers over there. The sunbird flowers were also very good, and now was the best time to eat them. There would definitely be no chance to pick them next time, so they just picked more.

Several people were busy at the foot of the mountain.

Shen Xuening had picked all the mulberries from those mulberry trees and used several lotus leaves to wrap the mulberries, filling several large bags.

Putting the mulberries aside, Shen Xuening walked to the nearby bamboo forest. There were bamboo shoots everywhere, and she couldn't help but want to pick them.

Stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots is absolutely delicious!

Shen Xuening bent down and started picking them. The bamboo shoots were easy to pick. They broke easily and were very crisp. Soon she had broken off a large handful and put them aside.

The aroma of bamboo shoots is very strong. Simply by breaking them like this, you can smell the rich aroma of bamboo shoots.

"Ningning, do you want to eat bamboo shoots?" Grandma Shen stood up and unexpectedly saw Shen Xuening picking bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest.

Shen Xuening replied, "These bamboo shoots are great. They'll definitely be delicious when fried with meat."

Seeing that Shen Xuening had already picked a lot, Grandma Shen looked at the wild celery nearby and said, "There are a lot of wild celery over there. I'll pick some to make dumplings."

Shen Xuening nodded: "Okay."

Grandma Shen had just started to pull up wild celery when Zhaozhou's mother's voice rang out: "Do you want some bracken? There's plenty of bracken over there."

Liu Juan replied, "Yes, since you're all here, let's pick some and take them back."

"Okay, I'll go pick some ferns." Zhaozhou's mother walked over actively and started picking them with great effort.

There are constant crisp sounds, and it sounds delicious.

Soon, she picked a large handful and placed them on the grass nearby. They looked crisp and tender. Zhaozhou's mother said, "Take them back and blanch them in water. Then use them in a cold dish or stir-fry with meat. They are delicious."

Liu Juan said, "We still have bacon at home. It will definitely be delicious if we stir-fry it with bacon."

Zhaozhou's mother was surprised: "You still have bacon at home?"

Liu Juan nodded: "Yes, I pickled a lot last year. We didn't cook often at home, so there was a lot left."

Zhaozhou's mother said, "The bacon smells good. I'll pickle more for the New Year this year."

"Sure." Liu Juan said, "I can make marinade over there. You can come and buy some. The bacon made from marinating is more fragrant than the ones you make yourself."

Zhaozhou's mother said, "Okay, I'll come buy it when the time comes."

Liu Juan said: "We can buy anything there, including clothes and pants. The quality is pretty good."

Zhaozhou's mother asked, "Are we buying it at the mini-mart?"

Liu Juan said, "It's outside the small supermarket, right outside the Qiulian Photography Studio. They have a lot of clothes there, both ancient and modern. They're of good quality and not expensive. You can pick whatever you want."

Zhaozhou's mother became interested: "I will definitely go over there and take a look sometime."

Liu Juan smiled and said, "If you want to come over, you can tell me and I will take you around. There are many interesting places."

Zhaozhou's mother said, "Okay, I'll trouble you when the time comes."

While the two were talking, their hands were not idle. They picked a bunch of wild vegetables, then each of them pulled out a kudzu vine and tied up the wild vegetables.

Here, Shen Xuening and Grandma Shen had almost finished picking the fruits and were discussing how to go home.

Shen Xuening took out her cell phone and called Shen Baohong to ask him how the rabbit hunting was going. Shen Baohong didn't answer the phone. A voice came down from above: "It seems you're back just in time."

Shen Xuening replied, "We've almost finished picking all the wild vegetables, so we can go home now."

Shen Baohong walked down the mountain quickly: "Okay."

Grandma Shen raised her head and looked upwards: "How many did you catch?"

"There are ten." Shen Baohong raised the hare in his hand and gestured for everyone to look at the hare in Zhaozhou's father's hand behind him.

Shen Xuening was a little surprised: "Ten rabbits were caught in such a short time. It seems that there are really too many rabbits on this mountain."

Shen Baohong was excited: "There are so many holes and so many little rabbits. It looks like a rabbit mountain."

Shen Xuening asked tentatively: "Then come and catch me next time?"

Shen Baohong agreed without hesitation: "Sure, wild ones are definitely tastier than domestic ones. Next time Brother Zhou comes over, I'll take him to experience the hunting life."

Shen Xuening said: "This is a good idea, he should be very interested."

As they were talking, several people gathered together, each took some things, and walked towards Zhaozhou's house together.

After walking for nearly twenty minutes, I finally got home.

Shen Baohong said to Zhaozhou, "We'll take eight rabbits. You can keep two for yourself. Next time we want to eat rabbits, come and catch them again."

Zhao Zhou quickly said, "No, you can take them all back. We don't like rabbits at home. Besides, if we want to eat rabbits, we can catch them ourselves."

"That's not a good idea." Shen Baohong wanted to take them all back, but it didn't seem right to take them all, so he left two for them.

"It's okay. Besides, you've helped us, haven't you?" Zhaozhou's mother took all the rabbits and put them in the car. "Okay, it's getting late. Put your things in the trunk and go home."

Shen Baohong said, "Should we keep two?"

Zhaozhou's father waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, take it all."

Shen Baohong asked tentatively: "Did we take it away?"

"Take it, just take it." Zhaozhou's father helped move the things, and finally moved everything into the trunk. "Hurry and go home, you've already wasted a lot of time."

"Thank you very much." Shen Baohong said, "Next time you come over, I'll bring you something delicious."

Zhaozhou's father nodded: "Okay."

Everyone got in the car, Shen Baohong was still driving, and then they started their return journey.

Shen Xuening sat in the passenger seat and began to reply to messages one by one. In just over an hour, a lot of things had accumulated.

……

The car drove smoothly to the doorstep and stopped. Everyone got out and moved everything in the trunk back home. Grandma Shen and Liu Juan didn't do anything else today and concentrated on making dinner at home.

Shen Xuening went to the office to handle some matters.

Shen Baohong helps take care of the rabbits at home: "There are ten rabbits in total, and ten rabbit heads. The rabbit heads are used to make spicy rabbit heads."

Liu Juan asked, "Can you do it?"

"No, but I can learn." Shen Baohong was quite confident in himself. "Grandma, I remember you seem to be able to make it. Can you make it for me?"

Grandma Shen waved her hand: "You are going to get married soon, so you should practice more on cooking skills and stop relying on others."

Shen Baohong said: "Grandma is not someone else."

"That won't work either. You should learn more on your own." Grandma Shen finally rejected Shen Baohong.

Shen Baohong was helpless and decided to find a video to learn by himself. He just didn't believe that he couldn't handle a few rabbit heads.
