Chapter 119 Returning with a Full Load

"Well done," Daya praised.

Liu Xiaoxiao smiled sheepishly, then took the "little umbrella" and said to Daya, "Sister Daya, look how big it is! It's not light at all!"

After hearing this, Daya took it, weighed it, and said, "Well, this is probably about half a pound."

After hearing this, Sanya said, "That's almost enough for us to have a meal."

Daya said, "Yes! It's our second sister who is lucky. We came out together, and neither of us has found any mushrooms yet! But our second sister found it first."

San Ya also said: "Yes! And it is the most delicious kind of mushrooms!"

Liu Xiaoxiao said to San Ya in disbelief, "It's not as exaggerated as what Sanmei said."

Then he said to Daya, "Also, Sister Daya, please stop praising me. I feel embarrassed if you continue to praise me. But don't worry, I know how to pick it now, and things like that will never happen again."

Daya knew that she was probably talking about the fact that she had not been able to pull out the roots in one go, so she said, "Second sister, you're overthinking it. It's actually very easy for us to pick mushrooms. And other mushrooms don't need to be pulled out by the roots like this."

San Ya corrected her, "Sister, it's not that other mushrooms don't need to be pulled up by the roots, it's that other mushrooms simply don't have such long roots! And if this mushroom wasn't so delicious, we wouldn't have to pull it up by the roots either."

Daya nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, your third sister is right. Anyway, you don't have to worry. As long as it's not this kind of mushroom, it will be easy to pick in the future."

As they spoke, they lowered their heads again and began to search under the leaves in the forest.

Along the way, Daya would occasionally tell Liu Xiaoxiao which places were most likely to grow which types of mushrooms, which colors of mushrooms were edible, and which were not.

After Liu Xiaoxiao and Daya searched for a while, she felt that she should be able to do it, so she separated from Daya, each looking on their own so that they could find more.

Of course, Daya also reminded her not to go too far, for fear that she would not be able to find them later.

Liu Xiaoxiao was in an excited state, so she just responded to Daya's words casually and didn't really take it to heart. But fortunately, Daya was reliable. While looking for mushrooms, she would look in Liu Xiaoxiao's direction from time to time. If she saw that she had gone too far, she would call her.

They searched for half an hour, and when they met again, they found that the baskets they brought were full, so Daya said they could go back.

Liu Xiaoxiao, still looking reluctant to leave, said, "Sister Daya, after we go back and put it down, can we come back again? I just saw that place over there and we haven't been there yet! I wonder how many mushrooms are there?"

In fact, Daya hadn't enjoyed picking mushrooms so much in a long time. In the past, when they picked mushrooms in the hills behind their village, they had to compete to see who had the quickest eyes and the quickest movements to get the mushrooms. Unlike now, although there were people picking mushrooms with them, the hills here were huge and no one had picked them before, so there were more mushrooms. She had just seen many mushrooms that had rotted because no one had picked them. Now that Liu Xiaoxiao had made this suggestion, she naturally agreed.

When the few of them returned with three baskets of mushrooms, the indispensable Liu Xiaoxiao was praised again.

Of course, the main people who praised her were Grandma Liu and Zhu Yun. It was as if there were filters in their eyes. They felt that Liu Xiaoxiao could do anything well and had the best luck.

Liu Xiaoxiao was almost unable to bear it, and finally her aunt came over and said, "Since we picked wild mushrooms today, why don't we cook them for lunch!"

When Liu Xiaoxiao heard that she could eat it today, she was of course happy, because ever since she picked up this mushroom, she had been hearing Daya and Sanya say how delicious and rare this mushroom was. Now that she knew that she could eat it at noon, she nodded enthusiastically.
