Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious

Chapter 56: Teaching the Villagers to Identify Mushrooms

"What's the next trick? Tell me quickly, Jian'er." Qiao Zhizhi came over and stood next to Qiao Jian'er.

Qiao Jianer: "That's the chicken mushroom."

Wan: "It means not to teach them about chicken mushrooms."

"No, we have to teach them, otherwise the villagers will accuse us of hiding something."

Dayong: "Then how——"

Qiao Jian'er looked at everyone and said, "We will teach everyone openly, but we don't need to tell them that the chicken mushroom is unique and precious. Even if they find it, they will put it with other mushrooms and squeeze it together. We squeeze it separately and sell it. They can't take away our market. We can still sell it for one tael of silver per pound as before."

"Also, the chicken mushroom grows on termite nests. As long as the growing season is not over and it rains, the places where the chicken mushrooms grew will mostly grow again. We will go to those places specifically to find enough chicken mushrooms."

"We have been looking for chicken mushrooms for several days. We know where there are more and where there are fewer."

So that's how it is. The Qiao family members' eyes lit up again.

Jianer really had a good trick up his sleeve.

"Okay, great! Let's hurry up, or the chicken mushrooms won't be picked up by the villagers and mixed with other mushrooms and squeezed and wasted."

Old Mrs. Qiao was very happy. Although she could not find a lot of mushrooms to earn enough money as she had imagined, after being discovered by the villagers, she felt that the road that Jianer had kept was the best way for them.

Qiao Jianer's mind raced, and he had another idea.

But at this moment, some villagers have already come up from below.

She whispered this to everyone for a while, and everyone in the Qiao family nodded, saying, "That's right, absolutely right."

Within half an hour, all sixty families sent out the smartest person in their family.

As for the Song family, everyone thought they were the smartest one, and finally decided to let Old Lady Song come.

Qiao Jianer didn't waste any time and asked each member of the Qiao family to bring four people to identify mushrooms.

Whoever recognizes and remembers all of them can take these mushrooms to show to his family.

Moreover, Qiao Jianer also fixed the team, so if everyone came down and didn't know something, they could ask each other for advice and learn from each other. They could only ask her if they were really unsure.

In order to ensure fairness, it is stipulated that only villagers can bring their entire families to the mountains to pick mushrooms tomorrow.

The mountain was covered with footprints of villagers, and the sound of talking could be heard everywhere, making a lot of noise.

The hills near Datian Village have never been so lively.

Old Mrs. Song is difficult to deal with, so Qiao Lianer took the initiative to lead the team she is in.

"This is a green fungus. It will leave green marks if you touch it. This kind of fungus is slightly poisonous and must be handled properly—"

Qiao Jianer first picked up a Jianshouqing and introduced it to the team.

"What, it's poisonous? As expected, you little girl have bad intentions. You want to lead everyone to identify poisonous fungi and let everyone be beheaded." When Old Lady Song heard that it was poisonous, her face changed and she immediately started scolding.

"Listen, she said it herself. Mushrooms are poisonous. She's deliberately trying to harm everyone."

The team members were also a little scared, after all, poisonous fungi kill people every year.

"Sickle, is this fungus poisonous?" someone asked nervously.

"I believe that Jianer has her reasons for introducing this fungus to everyone, and Jianer said that it should be handled properly, which means there will be no problem after handling it." At this time, another person spoke firmly.

Qiao Jianer looked at him and found that he was Qin Bu.

She was a little surprised because she just glanced at the number of people to confirm that Old Lady Song was in the team, and did not pay attention to every individual.

"Yes, there will be no problem if it is processed. We eat this kind of mushroom at home and we also sell it in town. Everything is fine."

Qiao Lian'er gave Qin Bu a grateful look.

"This type of mushroom is called the Boletus edulis. It's a type of boletus and one of the most delicious mushrooms. Of course, if you think it's risky, you can avoid the kind that changes color when looking for mushrooms. If you do want to find them, just follow my instructions."

Old Lady Song finally stopped making a fuss, and the others listened attentively.

"All mushrooms should be boiled in the pot for a quarter of an hour, and those with green hands should be boiled for two quarters of an hour."

"The processing method is to cook it, let it cool, cut it into slices, and fry it in oil until it is dry. Of course, if you eat it at home, you can just stir-fry it in oil for a while. When stir-frying, add some garlic to detoxify it."

Qin Bu was the one who listened most attentively, nodding as he listened.

"Okay, I remember everything."

Qiao Jianer continued to repeat it to the other villagers, and then asked everyone to repeat it one by one.

Old Mrs. Song was very reluctant. The Song family and the Qiao family were originally incompatible. She felt that Qiao Jianer was teaching her how to do things.

A little yellow-haired girl forced her mother to divorce, causing chaos in the family and causing the Song family to lose so much money. It was already polite of her not to punish her now.

"Grandma Song, if you don't want to learn, go home now. There are still several kinds of mushrooms you haven't learned yet. Don't ask too many questions when the time comes. Everyone is busy picking mushrooms, and no one will indulge you."

Old Mrs. Song rolled her eyes. No matter what, she would never go against money.

"This type of mushroom needs to be boiled for 25 minutes, while other mushrooms need to be boiled for 15 minutes. When frying, add garlic to detoxify it."

Every time he identifies a type of mushroom, Qiao Jianer will describe the characteristics of that mushroom and which other mushrooms it is easily confused with.

Any confusion could cost someone's life, so even Old Lady Song didn't dare to be careless. She pricked up her old ears and listened carefully.

After the description, Qiao Lianer asked everyone to repeat and recite it again.

Other members of the Qiao family did the same.

Although what they said was not as detailed as Qiao Jianer's, it was enough.

It was not until dusk and the sun had gone down that this arduous task was completed. The Qiao family members were so tired that their mouths were dry and they felt dizzy.

They are not afraid of crossing mountains and rivers for hundreds of miles. Teaching people to recognize things requires extreme concentration to avoid making mistakes and causing trouble, so it is very energy-consuming.

We all went down the mountain together, and everyone brought back the mushrooms that needed to be identified to show back home.

Bring along those that are easily confused.

"Thank you so much, Qiao family, for your hard work today."

"Yeah, I just realized that identifying mushrooms takes so much effort. It's not an easy task."

"You are sharing this opportunity to make money with us as a favor. If you need anything in the future, just let me know."

By now, all the initial resentment and dissatisfaction towards the Qiao family have disappeared completely.

All that's left is gratitude.

The Qiao family agreed readily and taught us carefully. What else is there to say?

Qiao Jian'er was silent. She felt that something was not right, or perhaps she had not considered it carefully enough.

When everyone was about to leave, she said, "Everyone wait a moment."
