After all, she had been hungry for a long time, but she also wanted the children to eat more, but seeing Xue'er's sensible face, she couldn't bear to refuse her kindness. As soon as Mei Sanniang raised her hand, Mei Xue trembled, and her hands

Started to tremble.

Mei Sanniang was stunned when she saw this scene, and then noticed the bruises on Mei Xue's wrist.

"Thank you... Xue'er..."

Seeing her mother accept it, Xueer couldn't help but be happy.

The five bird eggs were the only protein left in the family. Mei Sanniang thought for a moment, took out three of them and put them in Mei Xue's hand, "These three are for you. The child is still growing, and I can't grow after eating them.

It’s too much to eat.”

"mother…"

"Eat it quickly, it will taste fishy when it's cold and won't taste good. After you finish eating, come with me to pick some wild vegetables."

Mei Xue thought she had heard wrongly, so she opened her eyes wide and waited for a few seconds, but she heard correctly. This was what her mother said, so she quickly expressed her position, "Okay, listen to mother."

As always, Mei Xue listened to her mother's words, but after her mother went crazy, she couldn't remember Xue'er and Guitang. She didn't have enough to eat all day long and had to be beaten, not to mention that her mother would take them to hunt for food. Now that her mother is awake,

Of course she is happy that she can also dig wild vegetables.

You can rely on the mountains to eat. There are a lot of game in the mountains. After the rain, wild vegetables sprout out like crazy. The grass grows taller than half a person.

When going out, Mei Sanniang specially said hello to Brother Erzhu, borrowed a bamboo basket, picked up a shovel, and took advantage of the coolness after the rain to pick more. After all, people are like iron rice or steel, and they cannot eat even one meal.

Extremely hungry.

The road was very slippery after the rain, so Mei Sanniang picked up a wooden stick and handed it to Mei Xue, while she bent a yellow wattle pole to knock away the water in front of her.

The lush grass was full of mushrooms, and Mei Sanniang knew some of them. As for the charming red umbrellas, she knocked them off one by one.

"You can't eat this! The more beautiful it is, the more poisonous it is. The inconspicuous gallinobacteria like this are actually edible."

Mei Sanniang picked one with one hand and put it into the basket. At this time, Mei Xue was not idle. The little boy had sharp eyes and helped Mei Sanniang see where there were wild fungi.

At first glance, the tree trunk not far away was covered with dark things, so he called Mei Sanniang in confusion, "Mother, what is that?"

Mei Sanniang, who was bending down to pick up gallinomycetes, heard something moving, straightened up, and saw that the dead wood was covered with black fungus. Without saying a word, she picked up the hems of her trousers and ran up, "Isn't this the fungus?"

Cher is awesome.”

Mei Xue smiled happily, seeing her mother smile so brightly for the first time.

"Mom, I'm looking for another place."

"Okay, take the wooden stick and use it to beat the accumulated water. Don't get your trousers wet."

"good."

The freed girl was as happy as a wild monkey, running around in the mountains, not knowing what she was happy about, while Mei Sanniang continued to pick fungus.

She really wasn't bragging about the slippery road on a rainy day. If she wasn't careful, she would definitely fall to her feet. Fortunately, there were many trees on the mountain. Mei Sanniang stepped on the grass and held on to the tree trunks to pick a basket.

"Mom, there are a lot of mushrooms here." Mei Xue's crisp voice came from not far away.

When Mei Sanniang heard this, she ran away in a hurry. She had thought that if she picked a lot, she would give some to Brother Erzhu, but she didn't expect that there would be so many after the rain.

Thinking of the mushroom feast, I felt excited all over. I ran in a hurry but forgot about the slippery mountain road. With a splash, mushrooms were scattered all over the floor, and my hands and trouser legs were covered with mud.

When Mei Xue heard the noise, she ran over quickly and looked anxiously at Mei Sanniang who fell to the ground on her side. She was afraid that her mother would knock her head on her head, so she quickly reached out to help her. However, the child was weak and could not lift it, and her eyes were filled with anxiety.

The water couldn't help but flow down.

"Don't cry! You're not crying. It's ugly to cry."

After Mei Sanniang wiped away the tears from the corners of Xue'er's eyes with her clean sleeves, she sighed in her heart, luckily, it was her butt that fell, so she climbed up with the help of the tree trunk. What was gratifying was that Mei Xue, this child, was surprisingly sensible and said no.

I stopped crying, "Tsk, my butt hurts. Do you see it? Don't run around on rainy days, otherwise you will end up like this."

Mei Xue breathed and nodded repeatedly.

"If you feel sorry for my mother, just pick up the mushrooms on the ground. I'll take my time first."

When Mei Sanniang calmed down, Mei Xue packed up everything and handed the wooden stick in her hand to her.

"Mom, the road is slippery after it rains. Leave it to me to break up the water."

"OK."

Mei Sanniang's tone was gentle and she took the stick gently.

The two women walked one behind the other, with Mei Xue responsible for breaking up the water in the grass, while Mei Sanniang followed behind, holding a wooden stick and limping down the mountain.

Passing by Xu Erzhu's house, Mei Sanniang looked in and saw no figure of Brother Erzhu, but she was expecting an aunt to come out.

"Go, go, go, go to another house, our two pillars can't stand the torment."

"Er Zhu Niang, I didn't..." Before she could finish her words, she pushed Mei Sanniang out.

"Don't come! Our family is poor and we can't afford to support our family. Let Er Zhu go! He still has to get a wife!"

Turning around, Erzhu's mother closed the door with a bang.

"Mother."

"It's okay, let's go home." Mei Sanniang picked up the basket and walked home.

She prepared to dry the picked fungus for later use, and use the fresh gallinophilia to make soup.

"Xue'er, go and wash the mushrooms and make mushroom soup later."

After Mei Xue heard that mushroom soup was being cooked, she jumped for joy and ran to the home hall happily, "Brother, we have mushroom soup to drink."

Outside the house, Mei Sanniang spread the freshly picked fungus in a dustpan and found a ventilated place to put it. After the sun came out, it dried in the sun for a few hours.

At this time, seeing that Mei Xue had not moved yet, he called into the house, "Xue'er, have the mushrooms been washed?"

After hearing her mother's cry, Mei Xue did not dare to delay for a moment, for fear that her mother would be angry and abandon her and her brother.

"Wash the mud and bring in the mushrooms. I'll make a fire."

After Mei Sanniang gave the order, Mei Xue started to move tightly.

Mei Sanniang picked up some dry firewood and went into the house, set up a fire, then took a bowl of water and poured it into a large iron pot. When the water boiled, she put the mushrooms in. It was simple, simple and labor-saving.

"Mom, the mushrooms are washed."

Taking the basket, Mei Sanniang poured all the chicken and wolfberry mushrooms into the pot and boiled them over high heat. "It will be ready to eat later. Go wash two bowls."

The two women have a clear division of labor, and Mei Sanniang saves a lot of effort and waits until it is cooked.

"Sanniang, what are you cooking? I saw white smoke coming out of your chimney, so I came here to eat." At some point, Xu Erzhu leaned against the threshold and looked at Sanniang who was concentrating on cooking.

"Brother Erzhu? Why are you here?"

"What are you cooking?"

Xu Erzhu looked inside and saw that a lot of mushrooms had fallen into the pot, and the boiling hot water kept rolling.

"Eating mushrooms? This stuff is good for you!"

"I just passed by your house and wanted to give you some, but unfortunately...your mother..." Mei Sanniang stirred the pot, but stopped talking.

"Sanniang, my mother has an impatient temper. Although she is a little prejudiced against you, she has a bad heart and a soft mouth. Why don't I bring some potatoes to see you?"

"You're not the one who makes the right decisions? If your mother finds out, she'll peel me off." Mei Sanniang took the potatoes, picked up a stone and placed it next to the second pillar. "Sit down for a while, then cook it and drink it
