Hearing Xie Ping's words, Xie Youzhu, who was sitting, immediately stood up and shouted at him: "What are you yelling about, you bastard? Can't you see your grandparents are talking?"

How could the Lin family raise a cow? Maybe they were dazzled. That cow would cost twenty or thirty taels of silver. As far as he knew, only Old Man Niu in Qingxi Village had a cow, and he made a living by bringing people to the town.

I'm afraid that when they ran out, they saw the cow from Old Man Niu's house.

Xie Youzhu didn't take these words to heart, thinking that they had just seen it wrong.

"Oh."

Xie Ping lowered his voice and lowered his head.

Then he raised his head, his eyes still twinkling, and lowered his voice and said again: "Really, Dad, I saw it when Changshun and Changan took us to the backyard just now. Changan said that this is what their family just bought."

These words made everyone in the room look at each other in disbelief. However, Xie Ping was a very calm child in the past. He would not speak so carelessly if he had not seen it with his own eyes.

Did the Lin family really buy a cow?

Or maybe he borrowed the cow from someone else's house? Tomorrow is Lin Changting's wedding day, so he probably just wanted to save face.

After Xie Ping finished speaking, he saw that his own father was still in a daze and couldn't believe it, so he took Xie Youzhu's hand and walked towards the backyard.

Xie Youzhu was stunned and was pulled by Xie Ping. Xie An, Lin Changshun and others followed behind him. He reluctantly followed them out of the house and went to the backyard of the Lin family.

“This…this is…”

Old man Xie and old lady Xie also widened their eyes and looked at Lin's father and mother, waiting for them to speak, wanting to know whether this was really as Xie Ping said.

And what was going on with the cow in the backyard? They were all a little confused.

Mother Lin looked at Father Lin, and then she remembered that her family had been busy these days, and the Xie family didn't know about their family's situation.

Seeing that there was no one else in the house, he explained to them, "Dad and Mom, the cow in the backyard was indeed bought a few days ago. We also bought some land at home, and it will be useful for the spring plowing."

What?

My daughter's family not only bought a cow, but also bought land?

Everyone in the Xie family present was surprised and couldn't believe it. The cow and the land were not something that could be bought easily. The cow would cost at least more than twenty taels of silver.

And land is not cheap. In all these years, my family has not been able to buy even an acre or half an acre.

But these words were spoken by Lin's mother in front of everyone, so she couldn't be bragging. Lin's mother was a calm person, not someone who cared about face.

Then they looked at Lin's father in disbelief, waiting for him to confirm whether this was true.

Father Lin nodded. The Xie family were all honest people. When their family was in a difficult time, every time he and Mother Lin brought the children back home, his father-in-law, mother-in-law and brother-in-law would always give them all the food and daily necessities they had at home in large and small packages.

There was no need to hide these things from the Xie family. After thinking about it, Lin's father told them about how his family had gone into the mountains to pick mushrooms and brought them to the town to sell.

Now everyone in the Xie family was even more shocked. Why did this matter sound so mysterious?

The mushrooms in the mountains are edible. When there was a famine in the early years, there were people who went into the mountains to look for food, and those mushrooms were naturally picked and brought back, but many of them ended up causing problems.

In the end, no one dared to eat those things, and some even stepped on them, for fear that the naughty children would accidentally get sick from eating them.

That thing can still be sold for money, and from what Father Lin said, it seems to be sold at a fairly high price.

"But...but...a lot of people ate it a few years ago and got into trouble. After that, no one ate it anymore. Wouldn't it be okay if you picked it up and sold it?"

Old Mrs. Xie was a little bit unbelievable, and was even more worried that it would cause trouble for the Lin family in the end.

After all, many people know about that thing, but no one eats it.

The people in this town are not ignorant. Why would they buy those things? It’s not like they have too much money to burn.

When Father Lin heard what Mrs. Xie said, he knew that she was just worried that the Lin family might get into trouble because of this matter. She just cared about their family and had no other intentions.

Therefore, she did not pay too much attention to what Mrs. Xie said, but instead explained with a smile:

"Mom, there are many varieties of mushrooms. Some are edible, but some can really cause harm if eaten. But Yunchu knows what is edible and what is not. She has taught us everything, so don't worry."

At first, Lin's father and mother couldn't believe that this thing was really edible. It was not until they ate it themselves that they realized that what Lin Yunchu said was true.

This thing is not only edible, but also tastes delicious.

It’s just that outsiders don’t know how to identify it, so if they eat something bad, something bad will naturally happen.

"Yes, Grandma, as long as you know what is edible, it is fine. This thing is not only delicious, but also tastes extremely delicious."

It’s a pity that there were no mushrooms left in the mountains at that time, otherwise my grandfather and his family could have tasted them.

Lin Yunchu thought about it carefully and remembered that there were still some dried mushrooms left at home. After his eldest brother's wedding was over, he could bring some back for his grandparents to try when they returned.

When everyone in the Xie family heard what Lin Yunchu said, they were amazed. They never thought that the Lin family could make money by selling the mushrooms in the mountains.

That’s great. The Lin family’s life has improved, and they are happy too.

"Mom and Dad, aren't there mushrooms like that in our mountains? I'm always worried that the kids at home might get them accidentally."

When Mrs. Li heard this, she thought of the mountains near their village, where there were many mushrooms growing. When the season came, she was worried that her children would go into the mountains to pick them.

Now it seems that we have missed the opportunity to make money.

"Yun Chu, there are a lot of mushrooms in the mountains over there. Can we go into the mountains to pick some mushrooms and sell them in town?"

Li immediately looked at Lin Yunchu with a face full of joy.

Hearing what Li said, Old Man Xie's face suddenly turned cold, and he snorted at Li: "Shut up, what are you talking about!"

The Lin family did not treat them as outsiders, so they told them about this profitable business. How could Li think like this? Isn't this trying to steal the Lin family's business?

Although Old Man Xie also wanted to earn more money for his family, he couldn't do it this way.

After hearing what Old Man Xie said, Li finally realized that she seemed to have been too impatient just now.

But only then did she realize that this was the Lin family's way of making money, and it was indeed not nice for her to ask like this. Her face suddenly flushed, and she felt a little embarrassed looking at Lin's father and mother.
