The three of them quickly went down the mountain along the same route they came. When they got home, Lin's father and his companions had already returned and were chopping bamboo in the yard.

When Father Lin and his companions saw Lin Yunchu and the other two coming back, they quickly put down what they were holding and stood up, then hurried forward to help take off the backpacks on their backs.

Lin's mother went into the main room and poured out three bowls of cold boiled water for the three of them. This cold boiled water was Lin Yunchu's request.

I don't know what's wrong with this child, but ever since he woke up from fainting a few days ago, he has been unwilling to drink raw water.

She kept saying that she wanted to drink boiled water. She didn't know why, but after hearing Lin Yunchu say that, she followed her.

These days, everyone in the Lin family has gotten used to drinking water this way, and has also developed the habit of boiling water before drinking.

Lin Yunchu tilted his head back and drank all the cold boiled water in the bowl, and only then did he feel better in his throat.

I thought to myself that I must bring dry food and water when I go into the mountains tomorrow, otherwise I won’t be as lucky as I am today to encounter wild fruits.

Seeing that Lin Yunchu had finished drinking the cold boiled water in the bowl, she breathed a sigh of relief. Then Lin's mother took the bowls from the others and took them to the kitchen to wash them.

Father Lin looked at the mountain products in the three backpacks. He had seen and recognized the mushrooms and wood ear mushrooms, but one of the baskets contained something that looked a bit like bamboo shoots.

But it was different from the bamboo shoots he had seen in the back mountain, so he was a little unsure whether this was a bamboo shoot.

He then asked Lin Yunchu, "Yunchu, what is this? Is it edible?"

He felt a little regretful as soon as he asked. If this was not edible, why did they go through so much trouble to carry it back? His question was really unnecessary.

Lin Yunchu smiled softly. It was not surprising that they didn't know this. She had also been to the bamboo forest in the back mountain, where bamboo shoots were quite common.

The bamboo shoots she picked back today are from a different season and look different.

Moreover, just now on the mountain, she was only concerned with picking more bamboo shoots for breakfast, and had not yet introduced the bamboo shoots to her elder brother and Chang'an.

So he smiled and said:

"This is called mountain bamboo shoots, which is also a kind of bamboo shoots, but it is different from the ones in the back mountain. This season is the best time to eat them. The taste is particularly fresh and sweet. I will make it for you all to try tonight."

When the Lin family heard Lin Yunchu say that this thing called bamboo shoots was delicious, they felt relieved. As long as it tasted good, that was enough.

"Dad, what are you doing?"

There were several bamboo trees in the yard, which they should have just cut down in the morning. Lin Yunchu asked casually.

Father Lin took a newly woven bamboo mat and explained to Lin Yunchu:

"The mushrooms and wood ears we picked up from the mountains need to be dried in the sun, and we don't have enough bamboo mats at home. There's a lot of bamboo on the back mountain, so I cut some and brought some back. I plan to make more bamboo mats and a few backpacks."

These things can be used by the Lin family now, and the bamboo does not require money to make, just spend some time to weave it yourself.

After Lin's father finished his work in the fields, he took Lin Changbai to the back mountain to cut bamboo.

After working hard for a whole morning, they finally managed to weave a bamboo mat. Today they picked up a lot of mushrooms and wood ears, which came in handy.

"Alright, the three of you go wash your hands and have lunch first. I'll take care of the mushrooms and wood ears first."

Mother Lin brought lunch to the main room and called out to Lin Yunchu and the other two.

She followed Lin Yunchu to prepare the mushrooms and wood ear mushrooms last night, and now she has learned how to make them.

Lin Yunchu nodded with a smile and said, "We still need to peel the bamboo shoots. Mom, you can save them for later and I'll come over to do it after lunch."

Mother Lin nodded. She knew this, and there were so many mushrooms and wood ears that it would take her a long time to sort them out.

Lin Yunchu and the other two were already starving, so they went into the main room and started eating.

The three of them were also very hungry, and they ate all the food left by Lin's mother, and finally they were full.

Lin Yunchu cleaned the table and washed the dishes for the three of them. Then he took a small stool and sat down next to Lin's mother in the yard.

After resting for a while, he planned to start processing the bamboo shoots he had picked today. He felt something in his pocket and then he remembered the sweet corns they had picked from the mountain.

Lin Yunchu stood up again, took a basket from the side, and took out all the sweet sticks from his pocket.

It was only at this time that Lin Changting and Lin Changan remembered this matter. They were really hungry and tired after just returning, and they didn't expect that they had forgotten about this matter.

"What is this thing you three brought back? It looks and looks pretty good."

While picking the mushrooms in her hand, Lin's mother looked at the red fruits in the basket and asked with a smile.

Lin Changan jumped up first, ran to Lin's mother, and began to describe in vivid detail the experience of eating wild fruits in the mountains.

And the "March Bubble" that they ate at the beginning made Lin's mother a little curious.

"You can still find so many wild fruits in the mountains!"

Lin Yunchu did not respond. He stood up and went to the eaves. He scooped some clean water from the water tank and washed the sweetcorns in the basket.

Then he took it and handed it to Lin's mother and the others: "This one is already ripe and very sweet. You all should try it."

After listening to Lin Changan's words, several people have been very curious about this wild fruit called sweet stick. The color looks very beautiful, and they think the taste should be good too.

Mother Lin picked one up and put it in her mouth to taste it, with a glint of admiration in her eyes, "Hmm, it's really sweet, and the taste has a hint of sweetness, it's really good."

Every household in Qingxi Village is not rich, and it is not easy to have enough food and clothing on a daily basis. There are not many wild fruits around, so it is really rare to eat such fragrant and sweet wild fruits.

Seeing that everyone liked it very much, Lin Yunchu was naturally happy too. He thought to himself that he would bring an extra basket when he went into the mountains tomorrow.

When the time comes, they will pick all the ripe fruits from the tree they see so that everyone can eat their fill.

"We can't carry all the fruits in our backpacks today. There are still some ripe fruits on the trees. Tomorrow we'll bring a basket and pick some more for you to eat."

Anyway, they are all wild fruits from the mountains. It just takes a little more effort. It’s not a big deal. It’s rare that everyone likes to eat them.

Lin Yunchu secretly took note of this matter.

As she spoke, Lin's mother had already sorted out all the mushrooms in the backpack, and Lin Yunchu also quickly started to peel the bamboo shoots.

Lin Changting had already gone to the side to help his father weave bamboo mats and backpacks. Lin Changan squatted beside Lin Yunchu, watching her peel bamboo shoots.
