Transmigrated Little Farm Girl Bringing Great Fortune

In the bamboo forest.

Three siblings and a wolf were gathered around several mushrooms.

The mushrooms emitted a foul stench of rotting animal.

Ugh, it smells awful!

Jiang Miaomiao pinched her little nose.

No wonder no villagers are picking them, they really stink!

Tiny insects still clung to the dark cap of the mushroom, and the underside of the mushroom had already spread out.

It's ripe...

Jiang Zifeng covered her nose and looked at her younger sister.

The younger sister stared blankly at the thing, showing no intention of leaving.

What is my sister going to do? Won't it smell bad?

Jiang Ziyan calmly squatted down in front of his younger sister, "Miaomiao, do you want to pick more?"

Before there was a response, the little baby reached out to pick it.

The two brothers quickly pressed her hands down.

He said urgently, "We can't pick them! What if they're poisonous?"

Nine out of ten kinds of mushrooms in these mountains are poisonous, and this one looks so beautiful, it might be highly poisonous.

“It’s not poisonous… It’s edible… It’s edible… It’s all edible…” Jiang Miaomiao was held captive in her brother’s arms.

With her little mouth pursed and a look of wanting to cry on the verge of tears, her eyes were brimming with tears.

"Oh, alright, alright, pick them, brother will help you pick them." Jiang Ziyan's heart melted at the sight of his sister.

"Wasn't it said to be poisonous?"

Jiang Zifeng frowned. He couldn't pick them himself, but his sister could.

Jiang Ziyan didn't know how to explain it to him, so she just said, "Brother, if you're holding your sister, don't lift a finger. I'll pick it for you."

This thing looks really strange. I'll pick it and ask my mother. Maybe it has some other use.

And surprisingly, even though there were insects and ants attached to it, they weren't poisoned, so maybe it's not poisonous at all.

Little Miaomiao laughed as soon as she heard this, pointing at the mushrooms, "The lid smells bad... No, take off the skirt..."

Jiang Ziyan thought to himself, "My sister's face is just as red as the July sky."

It rains whenever you say it will, and it shines whenever you say it will.

But my sister said she doesn't want the smelly stuff covered up...

Should we remove that dark cap first?

Jiang Ziyan walked over, pinched his nose with one hand, and used the other hand to remove the cap of the bamboo fungus and throw it away.

He glanced at his younger sister and saw her looking at him with expectant eyes.

He pulled up the mushroom with its veil and held it in front of his younger sister, asking, "Is this what you want?"

Jiang Miaomiao nodded her little head vigorously.

Then he walked over and stood next to the basket, pointing inside, "Keep going, pot..."

This is to let him keep picking.

Did we come here just to pick this stuff?

Seeing his sister's expectant eyes, he continued picking, and the group walked around picking more and more.

Then he was surprised to find that after the little black cap on its head was removed, the thing didn't smell so bad anymore.

They continued searching in the bamboo forest and soon pulled up twenty or thirty bamboo stalks.

Just as he was getting into the swing of things, his younger sister grabbed his sleeve.

"Guoguo...go home."

Jiang Ziyan looked puzzled. It was only the end of the 9-11 PM time, not even noon yet, and the basket wasn't even full.

"Is Miaomiao not picking any more? Is she going back?"

Jiang Miaomiao nodded, "Going home..."

I'm late today, so I have to go back and can't stay any longer.

We need to get back as soon as possible and take advantage of the scorching sun to dry these bamboo fungus within three or four hours.

Otherwise, it will still spoil and rot.

This thing is incredibly precious.

From growth to maturity, every second counts, and those who harvest the produce must also act quickly.

Fortunately, her two older brothers are doting on their sister and are willing to listen to what this little girl, who is not even a year old, has to say.

Otherwise, you simply wouldn't be able to get this treasure.

"Let's go back! Before Aunt Xiuxiu, otherwise if Mother finds out we secretly brought my little sister out, we'll get a scolding..."

Jiang Zifeng touched his flat stomach.

It's almost time for dinner. Aunt Xiuxiu went hunting far away and won't be back for a while.

They can still return without anyone noticing.

Jiang Miaomiao sipped her milk tablets, smiling as she looked at her older brother.

Silly brother, if we carry this basket of bamboo fungus back, Mother will find out sooner or later.

It can't be hidden at all.

I didn't intend to hide it.

On the way back, Jiang Miaomiao dozed off on her older brother's back, listening to the two chatting idly.

"Brother, do you know that a dog tried to steal your sister's chicken leg, but she tricked it?"

What? You stole your sister's chicken leg!

Jiang Ziyan looked at his brother with a puzzled expression.

With Jiang Xiaobai around, which dog would dare to steal my sister's food?

"It was Mother who told Li Sanlang's mother, and then his mother told him, and Sanlang told me in turn. Do you know about this?" Jiang Zifeng felt that his younger sister was too clever after hearing this.

I wonder whose dog was so unlucky!

Jiang Ziyan shook his head. "I haven't heard of it. Why don't you ask your sister when she wakes up, or ask your mother?"

Jiang Miaomiao, who had already closed her eyes, suddenly opened them.

What is my brother saying? Is a dog stealing her chicken leg?

She didn't remember such a thing happening; even the village dogs would keep their distance from her.

How dare you steal her chicken leg?

Mother is lying.

……

Qingshi Town.

The east wing of the Lu residence.

Lu Qingyao was looking at the list of merchants who had pre-ordered pickled bamboo shoots.

I made a surprising discovery.

Not only merchants from Jiangzhou, but also many from the capital came, ordering not only pickled bamboo shoots, but also a lot of fresh bamboo shoots and mushrooms.

There were even many restaurants that were famous in the capital.

Weird!

Manager Jin shouldn't be in a competitive relationship with those restaurants and eateries, so why is she being introduced to business opportunities?

Isn't this stealing business from Yipinju?

Lu Qingyao was wondering when she heard someone knocking on the door.

"Is Master Lu busy right now?" Granny Zhang poked her head in.

Lu Qingyao smiled and welcomed her inside. "Did you need something, Sister-in-law Zhang?"

"Auntie, let me tell you, there's been some progress on the Tao family's matter. I just saw Tao Tao and her mother at the door, carrying a food box to visit Master Tao at the county government office. The constables said that Master Tao has been sentenced to exile..."

"Why doesn't he just die? He actually conspired with kidnappers to kidnap children from his own village. He's heartless! I almost never saw my Sanlang again..."

Granny Zhang became more and more agitated as she spoke, "The kidnapper is dead, how is he still alive? The county magistrate's judgment is unjust!"

"Sister-in-law, calm down. For traffickers like them, exile is tantamount to a death sentence..."

Lu Qingyao handed her a cup of hot tea and offered a few words of comfort.

According to the laws of Daqing, those who abduct children are not eligible for redemption from punishment, no matter how much money they are offered.

Granny Zhang looked up at her, "Really?"

"Yes!" Lu Qingyao said with certainty.

"That's good. It's a real tragedy that Master Tao's crimes have implicated his daughter... It caused Tao Tao to divorce that scholar, but even though it was a divorce, she didn't get her dowry back..."

As she spoke, Granny Zhang realized that she shouldn't have mentioned that person in front of Lu Qingyao.

After all, Jiang Yunze's wife almost became Tao Tao...

She stopped mid-sentence, gave an awkward laugh, and said, "Mr. Lu, you're busy. I'll go get back to work."

Lu Qingyao smiled, her smile gentle.

……

Seven days later, the government office sent back the news.

Master Tao died. He escaped during his exile, but fell off a cliff and died during the pursuit.
