C4 The Back of the Mountain to Dig Treasure and Bring Calamity

Su Zhi jumped in fright. From the sound of it, it sounded like Zhao Ling's voice, and she thought that she took advantage of the early morning chill to bring Madam Zhao out to the mountains to pick up Fungi.

She followed the sound and ran after it. Not far away, she saw Zhao Ling at the bottom of the ravine.

She looked over with anticipation and saw her fat body jumping into her embrace, "Wuu …" "Eldest Sister-in-Law, Eldest Sister-in-Law, and Village Head's Old Li are bullying my mother!

She went up and picked up the Blind Stick to help her up. Leaning over to her ear to comfort her, she lured her over to Zhao Ling's side. She rubbed the leaves on the tree and glared at the person not far away, "What are you doing, bullying the old man?"

That person was a sixteen to seventeen year old youth. He was dressed in rags and was giggling as he looked at her. "Haha, even a chubby girl like you is here. Do you want to fight?" He wasn't even afraid of his family's Zhao Jin, so why would he be afraid of this fat woman?

How could Su Zhi dare to fight? Her fat body had just run off for such a long distance.

He was already tired and out of breath. It was already difficult for him to even bend his waist to take a step. What could he use to fight against this slender and agile firewood stick?

"Sister-in-law, he stole our Fungi, make him give it back to us!" Zhao Ling pointed at the bamboo basket in his hand and angrily accused him of stealing the Fungi that they found so early in the morning with great difficulty — this was enough for them to eat for two days.

"Take it out!" Zhao Ling looked at Su Zhi trustingly and felt like she could not be a coward.

Second Elder Li twitched his mouth and ignored her. He took out the Fungi in the bamboo basket and pointed at her forehead with his fat finger as he scolded: "Tsk tsk, you b * tch, you really don't know what kind of person you are. When it comes to this daddy's things, I'll take it out. I'll puke …"

It was no wonder that he did not manage to handle the Fungi in the bamboo basket. There were some small red mushrooms in there, and there were also a few other Fungi s that came out to eat. However, if one looked carefully at them, they would see that there was one similar small white mushroom that looked like an ordinary mushroom in the pile of fresh goods.

Hearing his continuous curses, Su Zhi's thin eyebrows flashed. With a cold glint in her eyes, she forcefully retracted her anger and silently went forward to help Madam Zhao walk into the ravine.

"Heh, you stinking woman, you bitch, don't you dare go away for laozi. See if laozi will let you, a damn fatty, get away with it or not!" Second Brother Li's thick accent hit Su Zhi's eardrums. She had to endure it for a while before she could bear it.

Zhao Ling, on the other hand, refused to admit defeat. She looked at Su Zhi in disappointment, bent down to pick up a fist-sized rock, and was about to throw it at Second Brother Li.

Su Zhi was so frightened that she immediately pulled her back and whispered, "Don't move!"

"Sister-in-law, he bullied Mother and me. Not only did you not help us, you … You are timid, but I am not scared! " Zhao Ling's small face was filled with dissatisfaction, saying that there was no more food left at home.

He even said that his family had been saving up for a few days, giving her all that was good to eat and drink to recuperate and recuperate in. But now that he wanted to use her, she was frightened to such an extent, and Zhao Ling, a young girl, really looked down on this damn chubby girl in front of her.

"Listen to your sister-in-law, we can't afford to offend that Lee Family!" Madam Zhao sighed, her wrinkled face was filled with helplessness. They were widows and widows, it was a habit for everyone in the village to bully them.

Zhao Ling scolded him while jumping up and down. She was no longer as sensible as she was before.

Su Zhi knew that the Zhao Family had indeed paid a lot for her. That Zhao Jin had spent so much money just to make up for her sickness, and now he was trying to make up for it by copying books in the dark every day.

It could be said that if they didn't have any other output and gain, their entire family would starve to death in this cold winter.

She felt a wave of depression in her heart, and only felt a mountain of pressure.

However, she was used to being pressured in modern times. After her initial panic, she quickly calmed down and looked around the land.

Due to the cold rain last night, the ground was extremely slippery. The green-black undergarments were interweaving, and the fallen leaves were covering them in twos and threes. Her mind stirred as she saw this, so she helped Madam Zhao to sit on a slightly dry rock, picked up a sickle, laid her head under a pine tree and began to dig.

"My girl, what are you doing?" Madam Zhao heard the commotion and looked in her direction with a pair of lifeless eyes.

Su Zhi didn't have time to reply because the scythe had already pierced through the ground to a depth of 20 to 30 centimeters, revealing a large black mass.

It looked like a large mulberry, with small, charcoal holes in it. It looked like a mountain of walnuts.

Her heart tightened and she couldn't help but get excited. "We have something to eat!"

Zhao Jin, afraid that it would rain today and that there was no umbrella in the house, came back early. As soon as he entered, he saw his kind old mother sitting on the porch, groping for a shoe, the fat daughter-in-law bringing Zhao Ling and Zhao Xu to wash up in front of the stone vat in the courtyard, and a lump of pitch-black stuff in her hand.

He stared at it for a long time, but still couldn't recognize what that black object was. He raised his eyebrows in confusion and asked, "What is this?"

"Arachnoides suis!"

Well, this name was unheard-of.

"Sister-in-law said that she can eat as much as an ordinary Fungi, even more so than those!" Zhao Ling had already known about this from Su Zhi. Right now, her face was brimming with excitement as she helped her big brother.

Su Zhi added as she listened.

It was unknown when it was discovered that it could be eaten. However, looking at the reaction of Zhao Jin and co. people, it was likely that no one in the village knew that it was edible. After all, the living environment and appearance of this Fungi required courage to even try!

Su Zhi was fat, and after throwing herself on the ground and bathing for a while, she became tired. After teaching Zhao Jin, she got up and went to Kitchen.

There were a total of four rooms in the Zhao Family, all of which were constructed with yellow mud, wrapped with straw. The largest room was the hall, the smallest was the Kitchen, and inside, other than a muddy stove, there was barely enough space to put down a big stone concave water jar and a cupboard with missing legs.

However, even though it was small, it was still quite clean.

She poured out the remaining bag of white noodles from the rice bowl, sprinkled it with her own spring onion, stirred it, stirred it, and put it in the pot. Soon, pieces of the spicy scallion cake came out of the pot, and the kitchen was filled with its fragrance.

Halfway through, Zhao Jin came in to send off the cleanly washed boar arches and glanced at the busy person.

The woman had a fat body, but her movements were extremely nimble. Under the firework's illumination, her round black face was burned red, and sweat was still dripping from her temples. His palm was itchy, and he almost wanted to wipe it off for her.

Zhao Jin was stunned!

Su Zhi saw him standing at the door, her pretty face covered by the light. She called out to him, "Zhao Jin, hold the fire. I'm going to make some soup with it!"

Zhao Jin glanced at her fat body and was a little worried that she would be tired. He advised her: "You'll recover from your injuries, let me do it!"

Su Zhi smiled at him. This weak scholar was actually a considerate person. These two days, he had made up for his mistakes by copying books without any complaints. When he returned, he took care of her seriously without a single trace of bad temper.

She looked at him. "Do you know what to do?"

It was Zhao Jin's first time seeing such an object, so he naturally wouldn't do it. However, he said that he couldn't learn it. Su Zhi rejected him decisively because she was in a hurry and asked him to help her to light the fire while she operated.

In fact, there were many ways to eat it. In foreign countries, it could be used for pricking the body, stirring and stir-frying at home, but the most nutritious way to eat it was to make soup with black chicken. However, there was nothing to eat right now, so he could only put some wild vegetables in the water to make a pure soup.

Very quickly, the same kind of hard stuff was placed on the table. A fragrant smell filled the air, while the two children rushed over crazily when they smelled the smell. Their eyes were fixed on the dish as they forcefully swallowed their saliva.

As the fragrance drifted over, Madam Zhao's appetite was also triggered. However, she still had some understanding of the food stored in her house, and as soon as she smelled it, she knew that it was white noodles. Her appetite suddenly disappeared, and she spoke sorrowfully about the grievances she had suffered at the hands of Su Zhi.

Su Zhi was not an ignorant person. The moment she heard Madam Zhao's words, she knew that Madam Zhao's heart was in pain and her face was white. She comforted her, "Although the white mask was used up, we will soon be able to earn coppers!"

She thought about how there were quite a lot of them in this place, but it was still a bit hard to find. However, this Fungi was one of her signature dishes in the village, she had plenty of ways to find it, so she was confident that she could rely on it to change the current situation in her life.

She immediately suggested that after lunch, they should hurry and dig some for themselves. On one hand, they could keep the food for themselves, and on the other hand, they could sell it in the market!

Su Zhi became happy as she said this. She originally thought that her days here would be quite sad and felt that there was no way out, but now that her injuries had healed, her days were about to end in peace!

She was so excited that she missed the worry and doubt in Zhao Jin's eyes.

Madam Zhao sighed heavily when she heard this. She raised her hand when she heard the sound of the two children swallowing their saliva, asking them to start eating.

Su Zhi lowered her head to pick up a scallion pancake and put it in Madam Zhao's bowl. Before she had even bitten her own chopsticks, she suddenly heard chaotic footsteps outside, and very quickly, the courtyard door was kicked open by someone. She fell limply on the ground, and then a group of people aggressively rushed in, followed by a few villagers who were just watching the fun.

Without even saying goodbye, the leading old lady in an indigo jacket fell to the ground and started crying loudly, "Oh my mother, my son, my second son, you are really pitiful, going to the mountains to pick up Fungi s and teach them to beg for their lives …"

Listening to the singing and cursing, the people from Zhao Family finally knew that the person who came was Second Brother Li's family.

Previously, when Old Li Er stole the Fungi that Madam Zhao picked up from the ravine, he went back to cook it and eat it himself, then fell down. Now, they came specially to denounce and blame Madam Zhao and Su Zhi for wanting to use the Fungi to kill their family's second son!

Zhao Ling had always kept this in mind. She still had a knot in her heart, so when she heard Zhao Ling's words, she immediately felt uncomfortable and wanted to go up and scold him.

Su Zhi was someone who knew the inside story. Her eyes twitched, and her fat face did not show any signs of panic, as she lowered her head to drink a mouthful of water. Just as she was about to argue, she suddenly saw a shadow flash past in front of her.

"Du Huang, my mother and my wife are always kind. How could they do such a thing? Is there some kind of misunderstanding?"

His voice was filled with a usual gentleness and gentleness, like the flowing waters of high mountains and valleys, or the soft murmurs of the spring wind brushing against one's ears.

Mrs Liu crawled up, stuck her hands on her waist and spat out saliva, "Zhao Scholar, get away from me, I won't cause you trouble today, hand over that damned woman behind you. I can trust her, but that fat wench wants her to give me a child to fill my life!"
