I'm not worried about traveling through a farmer's house. I made my fortune by farming.

"Cousin, wait for me, I want to go too!"

Lin Yunchu changed his mind and quickly called out to Lin Cuizhi who was about to walk to the gate of the courtyard.

These snails are still missing something as a seasoning to make them more delicious. I remembered the spice I saw on the roadside when I went to the back mountain to dig bamboo shoots. Now is exactly what I need.

When she heard Lin Yunchu's voice, Lin Cuizhi, who was about to walk away from the courtyard gate, suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Lin Yunchu, blinking, a little puzzled.

Lin Yunchu was not in a hurry to explain at this time. He walked to the eaves, reached out to take a bamboo basket, and walked out quickly. After closing the courtyard door, he stepped forward and took Lin Cuizhi's arm.

"Let's go. We need another spice to cook the snails. I've seen it in the back mountains. I'd like to go with you."

Lin Cuizhi nodded in understanding, but thinking of Lin Yunchu wanting to go to the back mountain, they said as they walked, "Okay, but wait for me for a while. I'll go into the house and tell my father and the others, then I'll go with you to the back mountain."

This back mountain is usually sparsely populated, and she was worried about Lin Yunchu going there alone. She didn't have anything to do anyway, so she would feel more at ease if he went with her.

Lin Yunchu nodded. She was just at the back of the mountain, not far away. If she didn't agree, it would make Lin Cuizhi worry. So it would be better for them to go together and chat on the way to relieve boredom.

Seeing that Lin Yunchu did not refuse, Lin Cuizhi felt relieved and asked Lin Yunchu to wait at the door for a while. When she entered the house, everyone in the family was there, so she told them that Lin Yunchu had just asked them to come over for dinner in the evening.

Only then did he feel at ease and go out to the back mountain with Lin Yunchu.

Lin Cuizhi didn't know what spices Lin Yunchu was looking for, so she followed her until they reached the foot of the mountain.

Lin Cuizhi looked around and saw only some bamboos, saplings and clumps of weeds growing around. It didn't look like there were any spices.

He frowned slightly, not knowing what Lin Yunchu was looking for here. He wondered if he had come to the wrong place.

"Yun Chu, there are weeds everywhere here, where are the spices? Did we find the wrong place?" This place is not far from the village. If there were spices, the villagers would have come here to pick them long ago. There would not be such weeds here.

Lin Yunchu curled her lips and said nothing. She had seen it the last time she came here. It was almost at this location, but now it seemed that the weeds were even more dense.

She looked around, and finally her eyes stopped on a patch of emerald green grass.

found it!

"Cousin, we're not in the wrong place. We've found it."

Upon hearing Lin Yunchu's words, Lin Cuizhi's eyes widened immediately. She followed Lin Yunchu's gaze and saw that she was staring at a patch of lush green grass and smiling happily.

Could it be that these weeds are spices?

Lin Cuizhi's frown deepened. There were weeds everywhere. If they could be eaten as spices, wouldn't that be a joke?

impossible.

"Where are they, Yunchu? These don't look like spices to me!"

Lin Cuizhi paused slightly. She almost said the word "weeds", but it would be inappropriate to say that in front of Yun Chu.

But......

"hehe....."

After hearing what Lin Cuizhi said, Lin Yunchu covered her mouth and chuckled. She knew what Lin Cuizhi was thinking at the moment and was afraid that she thought she was joking.

Lin Yunchu took a few steps forward, raised his hand and gently pushed aside the tallest weeds. He pointed to a emerald green plant and said to Lin Yunchu, "Look, this is the spice I'm looking for today."

Lin Yunchu saw this area when he came here to dig bamboo shoots before, but unfortunately he was busy digging bamboo shoots at that time and later forgot about it because he was busy with other things.

It happened that Lin Cuizhi delivered the snails to the Lin family today, and she just then remembered this piece of fragrant leaf. These are all treasures.

Lin Yunchu reached out and pinched a leaf, handed it to Lin Cuizhi, and said with a smile: "Smell it, isn't it fragrant?"

Very few people come here, and these bay leaves can be used as ingredients, but not as wild vegetables. Even if someone finds them and picks them back, they probably don't know what they are for.

That's why such a large area of ​​grass can grow here. Now, because it is sparsely populated, it is covered by weeds.

Lin Cuizhi looked at the leaf that Lin Yunchu handed to her, took it with half belief and half doubt, and when she saw Lin Yunchu nodded at her, she raised her hand and put it to her nose and sniffed it.

I was so shocked that my eyes widened. This smell is really... so fragrant!

"This smells so good, Yunchu! I didn't expect this weed... no, it's spices. It smells so good, such a rich aroma."

Lin Cuizhi was also a little bit unbelievable. The back mountain was not far from the village. She didn't expect that there would be such a fragrant thing. How come she had never noticed it before.

And Lin Yunchu just said that this is edible, so it should be okay to pick it and cook it. It smells so good, so if it is cooked into a dish, it will be a delicious dish, even better than the vegetables grown at home.

Lin Cuizhi raised her head and looked at Lin Yunchu. Unable to suppress the smile on her face, she grinned and asked, "Yunchu, you said this thing is edible, so let's pick it and fry it. It should be fragrant and delicious, right?"

She picked up a leaf now. It smelled so fragrant and would definitely taste better when cooked.

Lin Yunchu paused while picking the bay leaves, then raised his head and laughed. He quickly explained to Lin Cuizhi, "Cousin, these are called bay leaves. They are great as spices, but they can't be eaten directly as food."

Although this thing is good, it is not so delicious if you eat it directly.

"This can be used to stir-fry snails, scrambled eggs, or fried rice, and it is especially fragrant when cooking fish soup."

Lin Yunchu couldn't help drooling when she mentioned this. This was really good stuff. When she made it in the evening, her cousin would know how delicious it was.

"Let's pick some and take them back. We'll make you something delicious tonight. You'll know then."

After saying that, he lowered his head and quickly picked a large bunch of fresh and tender fruits.

"Ok!"

When she heard that she would use this to make delicious food in the evening, Lin Cuizhi nodded hurriedly, with the corners of her mouth almost grinning to her ears.

Even if others don't know, how could she not know Lin Yunchu's craftsmanship?

Since Lin Yunchu said so, the taste must be good. She would pick more and look forward to eating delicious food in the evening.

Thinking of this, Lin Cuizhi didn't have time to think about it. She walked forward and followed Lin Yunchu's example, pushing aside the taller weeds. When she saw the fragrant leaves exposed underneath, she was immediately delighted.

They reached out and picked the tenderer fragrant leaves. Soon, they had picked half a basket of vegetables.
