She was thinking about going back to cook early. After all, digging kohlrabi roots is a strenuous job, and Su's father and the others set off without eating. She had picked them up early and went back to cook. She would have plenty of time to come over and look for them slowly in the afternoon.

So she didn't waste much time and looked for the mark left yesterday.

Lu Yan followed behind, watching her busy all the way. When she encountered mushrooms, she would put them in her basket, and if there were wild vegetables, she would dig them up and throw them into a sack.

Probably because she was afraid that the basket would not fit in, she carried a large basket on her back. Yesterday's two baskets could only fill today's one, and she also brought a sack.

I thought that if there are a lot of mushrooms, I can put them in sacks. If I don’t have them, it’s okay. I can dig wild vegetables and put them in melons and Yunnan olives.

"what is this?"

Seeing her pick up a few more strange mushrooms, Lu Yan's eyes were full of doubts. He had eaten mushrooms before, mostly those from Qiao Baba and Green Head Fungus.

I have also eaten the more expensive ones a few times, but not many, such as bamboo fungus, gallinopsis fungi, and matsutake mushrooms. The person above rewarded them a little. He even saw strange fungi like the ones Su Ziling picked up. Never seen it.

Su Ziling was in a good mood after picking up wild morels. She didn't expect that it was already the end of October and she could still pick up morels.

But this was probably the last batch. She was very lucky. There were just a few fungi, so she only picked up a handful.

While carefully putting the mushrooms into her backpack, she answered him, "Morels, chicken stew with morels is nutritious and delicious."

Lu Yan raised his eyebrows, "Stewing chicken again? Can your family withstand your cooking?"

Su Ziling glanced at him angrily, "Then you are not allowed to eat the stew I made!"

Lu Yan's face froze slightly, and Su Ziling snorted slightly when she saw this, and continued walking forward.

"Su Ziling!" Lu Yan called out her first name and surname. Su Ziling was stunned. Everyone in her family called her Xiaoqing or Qing'er. Ji Yunhe liked to call her Aqing. Even if it didn't work, he would call her Qingyatou. Sort of like that, but no one has ever called her Su Ziling.

Su Ziling didn't look back and continued to look down, "How do you know my name?"

Her voice was much calmer, unlike the tone she usually used when talking to Lu Yan, and a trace of surprise flashed in Lu Yan's eyes.

"Didn't you tell me that? In the name of the medicine, Ling'er means curling ears. In the name of the medicine, Ziling means medicine, and Ling'er means curling ears."

Hearing his explanation, Su Ziling lowered her head to look for the fungi and her eyes slightly curved. The corners of her lips had just risen when she suppressed them. She said a faint "Oh" and then lost her voice.

After a long time, she asked: "What did you want to say just now?"

Lu Yan pointed to the pine tree not far away and said in a brisk voice, "Oh, it's nothing. I just saw that there seemed to be several of the fungus you picked up growing under the pine tree. I don't know if it's true or not."

Hearing that there were still bacteria, Su Ziling straightened her waist immediately, "Where?"

Seeing that he was pointing in the direction he had just come from, Su Ziling's eyes widened and she hurried back, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Oh, I saw you walking past it without changing your expression. I thought it was just because it looked similar and it couldn't be eaten."

Su Ziling: "..."

Wild morels like to grow under pine trees, in places where grass and shrubs intersect, with a slight slope. They are not big in size, and their color is a bit close to fallen leaves and pine leaves, so they are often overlooked.

She returned to the pine tree and looked at the morels that had their heads sticking out and were the same color as the leaves, and the corners of her mouth raised high again. (Put another picture)

After picking up this handful, she searched around carefully for a while, and then went to the mushroom tree after making sure it was gone.

Although I only picked up two handfuls, it was enough for a meal. If I know where they are this year, I can come and pick them up early next year.

There was a lot of dew in the morning, and the trousers of both of them were soaked before they even got there. Lu Yan was taller, but Su Ziling's hair was damp, and the small strands of hair stuck to her forehead.

"We're here." Looking at the mushrooms in front of him, it was obvious that the bones had spread out a little more. The umbrella that hadn't been fully opened last night was also fully opened at this time.

Su Ziling put down the sack, put the backpack on the ground and began to pick it up from one side to the other. She did not forget to remind Lu Yan, "You can go for a walk next to it, but don't run too far."

After saying that, I ignored him and my thoughts were buried in the mushrooms.

Lu Yan's lips twitched at the side. He suspected that Su Ziling had just regarded him as her sister or brother, and that was how she spoke to them.

If Su Ziling knew what he was thinking, she would definitely yell. If it was Axiu or Erniu who came here, she was going to let them pick it up quickly and go play?

What are you thinking? I asked you to come to the mountains to have fun?

Seeing that she kept her head down and picked up the mushrooms very quickly, Lu Yan also became interested. He walked over, squatted on the other side of the tree, and picked up the mushrooms imitating her example.

"You want to keep this little one, right?"

His sudden voice startled Su Ziling. She raised her eyes and glanced, "Yes, keep it if it's too small. I'll pick it up next time."

After Su Ziling picked up a piece, she moved forward and said, "Have you never experienced picking up fungi?"

Lu Yan shook his head honestly, "No, don't say it, it's quite interesting."

Lu Yan looked at his fingers, shook his head slightly and smiled. He did not expect that his murderous hands could actually pick up fungi.

Su Ziling raised her chin, the joy in her body almost overflowing.

It must be interesting to pick up mushrooms. Those who have never experienced this kind of joy of harvesting cannot understand it.

With Lu Yan's help, the speed was much faster than she thought, but the mushrooms did not fill the basket.

She poured the wild vegetables out of the sack. She first put the Yunnan olives and melons into the sack, and then put the wild vegetables on top. She did not put the morels under the basket for fear of being crushed by the mushrooms.

So she picked two leaves, made a bowl out of darned grass, and put the morels in it.

After picking up her backpack and sack, she said to Lu Yan on her side: "Let's go."

"Give it to me." Lu Yan reached out and took her basket.

"Goodbye, it's not heavy, but don't open your wound again then."

Lu Yan: "I'm fine."

Su Ziling said "Oh" and added: "To tell you the truth, I'm not worried about you, I'm mainly worried about my mushrooms."

Lu Yan: "..."

Very good. Fortunately, he thought this man had some conscience just now, but he didn't expect that in the end he was overthinking it.

Lu Yan strode forward, took her sack, held it in his hand and strode away.

Looking at the direction he was going, Su Ziling blinked and reminded, "Hey! You're going the wrong way. Go this way when you go home!"

She clearly saw Lu Yan pause as he strode away, then continued walking forward, "Who said I was going back?"

"Then where are you going?"

Su Ziling's voice echoed in the mountains. Lu Yan waved his hand and his voice came softly, "You go back first, I'll be back in a moment."

Seeing his back disappear before her eyes, Su Ziling muttered, "I don't even know the road, I'm running all over the mountains and plains."
