The little girl from a farm family has a big wish to make a fortune by farming and picking mushrooms

"Once we have collected the firewood, let's go back together."

Boss Zhou wiped the sweat from his forehead, and the bumps from mosquito bites became more obvious.

The wormwood juice that had been applied before was wiped off with the hot sweat, giving mosquitoes an opportunity to attack. They had become the mosquitoes' meal, and their bodies were already itchy.

"Okay, there aren't many mushrooms in the woods." Liu put down the basket on her back and walked forward, intending to help the head of the family pick up the firewood and tie it together.

Zhou Mingqin and Zhou Mingqi also put down their backpacks and rested their shoulders.

A few people straightened their backs to rest, and at a glance they saw Zhou Mingshu's basket, which was full.

It wasn't that the others were lazy and couldn't fill the basket, but that Zhou Mingshu's basket had some big mushrooms, which filled up the basket in an instant.

She was the most tired one. She endured the pain in her shoulders and put down the heavy backpack.

"Take a break, we'll be back soon."

Several adults started working. Zhou Mingqi and Zhou Mingshu picked up a few large leaves, stacked them together, and used them as a cushion to rest.

"Even if you apply wormwood juice, it won't help. You'll still get bitten."

Zhou Mingqi pinched the bumps on the back of his hands with his fingernails to relieve the itchiness.

After resting for a while, Zhou Mingshu couldn't sit still anymore.

Because there were so many mosquitoes, many of them even crawled into my trouser legs.

"Forget it, I won't sit here anymore. I'll go walk around and see if there's anything good."

Zhou Mingqi also stood up. If she just sat down to rest for a while, she would feel as if she was going to be swallowed by a mosquito. It would be better for her to stand up and walk around.

There is some humidity in this area, and Zhou Mingshu and Zhou Mingqi searched for a while and found a lot of Fragrant Tam.

Liu told Zhou Mingqin to stop picking firewood and asked her to follow the two maids to continue picking incense.

Firewood can be collected at any time, but this mushroom is not often available, and it becomes unpalatable when it gets old.

After everything was sorted out, the three of them found half a bag of incense.

Everyone was very happy. After distributing the weight of the things, Boss Zhou took everyone down the mountain and went home.

Just as Old Mrs. Zhou put the dry firewood she had picked up in the morning into the woodshed, Old Man Zhou and his group of people came home carrying firewood.

"Mom, these firewoods are quite dry. Should we put them directly in the firewood room or let them air out for a while?"

"Let it cool down a little longer. These firewoods are thick. Let them dry and chop them before putting them in the firewood room. They won't be easy to burn if they are damp."

Old Mrs. Zhou helped her son unload the firewood from his shoulders, which was too heavy to move.

I looked at the backpack and found that I had harvested a lot this time. There were all kinds of mushrooms, and the most common one was the fragrant mulberry.

"Hey, what's going on with this basket?" Old Mrs. Zhou looked at the basket of red mushrooms in front of her and looked at her eldest and second daughters-in-law with a questioning look on her face.

With Zhu around, Liu would naturally not speak a word.

Zhou Mingshu, on the other hand, was quick-witted and spoke, "Grandma, these are the red mushrooms I picked. Red mushroom soup is especially delicious. Shall we try it?"

"Who told you this mushroom is edible?"

The air pressure around Old Mrs. Zhou had obviously dropped. This mushroom had killed people before, so the villagers in the village didn't dare to pick it up.

Her granddaughter, on the other hand, carried a basket back with her back, and her two daughters-in-law didn't try to stop her.

Zhou Mingshu looked at the people who were picking mushrooms together and thought for a while. If she said that it was the second ancestor who taught her, would grandma believe it?

Never mind, she'll just be scolded, but she still wanted to struggle a little longer.

"Grandma, this red mushroom is really edible. When I picked it up, the little bugs were eating it."

Old Mrs. Zhou ignored her and directly told Boss Zhou to throw it as far away as possible.

"No, no, no, I'll throw it away myself. I'll throw it away myself."

It seems that she will not be able to enjoy it. This is top-quality red mushroom. It would be a pity to throw it away.

Zhou Mingshu carried the basket to a deserted place and exchanged points directly with the system. With more than a thousand points, she became a wealthy woman.

Zhou Mingqi and Zhou Mingqin stood at the door waiting for their second sister to come back.

She must have felt bad after being scolded this time.

The two sisters had already prepared a speech and were just waiting for their second sister to come back so that they could comfort her.

But from a distance, I saw her jumping and dancing, humming a song, which showed that she didn't take the matter to heart at all.

"Big sister, second sister, what are you doing here?"

Seeing that nothing was wrong, the two sisters breathed a sigh of relief.

Boss Zhou, Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Zhu and a few children were already washing up.

It’s too hot on the mountain, taking a shower will make you feel more comfortable.

"It's so itchy and uncomfortable..." Zhou Mingjie cried. If it weren't for the mosquitoes, the mountain would be a paradise for them boys.

But now that he had this thing, he didn't want to go into the mountain at all.

Old Mrs. Zhou naturally felt sorry for her grandchildren. She took a ladle to rinse the mortar and threw in a handful of dried mugwort.

She wanted to squeeze out some juice and rub it on the children.

"Grandma, when are we going to exchange that piece of Polygonatum for money? Can you cut a little more fat by then? I want to make mugwort anti-itching ointment, and I need some lard. Then we won't be afraid to go up the mountain anymore."

When Mrs. Zhou heard this, she couldn't help but stop what she was doing.

How could she forget such an important thing?

"Old man, come over here and smash it. After you're done, wipe it off for the children. I have something to do with your second uncle."

After saying that, she untied the apron around her waist and went out.

"San Ya, did you pick up Polygonatum this morning?"

"Yeah, I picked up a big piece. Grandma said she would change it into money so we can cut some meat to eat."

Zhou Mingshu's answer made the whole family excited. Originally, only the three of them knew about this matter. Zhou Mingyuan was a playful kid, so he went home and started playing, and forgot about this matter in an instant.

"Oh, that's great. We haven't had meat in a long time. Even if we cut some fat, we can boil it into lard. In the future, our dishes will have the smell of oil."

Feng was embroidering a bellyband for a child, while Xiao Minghua next to her was screaming with excitement.

A lot of mugwort juice had come out of the mortar. Everyone took some and rubbed it on the bumps, and then they felt much better.

The sun was still high in the sky, and they had collected a lot of things on this trip into the mountains.

Everyone brought small stools over and sat together, starting to pick the mushrooms, and then picked out the dry grass and fallen leaves inside to make it easier to clean them later.

Not long after, Old Mrs. Zhou came back with a happy face.

Everyone is very concerned about the price of Polygonatum sibiricum, as it is a major issue that affects whether the family can eat meat.

"Mom, what did my second uncle say?"

"The price of Polygonatum odoratum is not bad. The piece he picked up last time weighed more than eight taels and he got eighty coins. Boss, can you weigh our piece and see how heavy it is?"

Although Mrs. Zhou didn't know the weight of the piece of Polygonatum, she estimated that it was more than eight taels.

Boss Zhou took a scale from the kitchen and weighed it. He found that the piece of Polygonatum odoratum weighed more than one pound!

Then according to what my second uncle said, wouldn't it cost me 100 coins? !
