Su Ziling kept chattering all the way, and Lu Yan followed behind her, occasionally echoing a few words.
When they arrived at the place where they picked white fungus last year, they didn't find any. So they went to look for it separately and wandered around in the woods.
Maybe it was because the time was not right, I looked around but didn't see a single flower.
"How is it? Did you find it?" Su Ziling asked hopefully when he saw Lu Yan coming over.
Lu Yan shook his head.
"Forget it, let's come back next month. I guess we came too early this year," Su Ziling said, pointing to a place not far away. "Let's go down from there. We can still pick some mushrooms for a while and see where my brother and the others are."
"I didn't pick up any white fungus, but I picked up a few handfuls of gray mushrooms." Lu Yan turned the backpack to the front.
Su Ziling took a look and said, "Wow! It's quite fat, and the pole is thick too. Are there any more around?"
"No, just these few." Lu Yan put on the backpack and walked in front to lead the way.
"We'll go back after just one more turn. It's very cold." Su Ziling stamped his feet. The rain had just stopped and the grass and pine needles were all covered with water droplets. Not only were his trouser legs wet, but even half of his clothes were wet.
"By the way," Su Ziling suddenly stopped, and Lu Yan turned around, "What's wrong?"
"Shall we go over there? I remember I picked up a lot of mushrooms over there last year."
The two of them turned and came to the place where Su Ziling picked mushrooms last year. They hadn't been there for a long time, and the place was overgrown with grass, making the road a little difficult to find.
Su Ziling had to go to several places before he found it.
The old tree did not disappoint her. Just like last year, the trunk was covered with densely packed mushrooms. It was just that she arrived late and most of the mushrooms had already opened.
Fortunately, the climate was good and the mushrooms did not go bad. On the contrary, they grew quite plump.
"Lu Yan, Lu Yan!" Su Ziling waved at him, "Come quickly, I found it."
"Coming." Lu Yan responded, his voice a little loose, but his pace was not slow at all.
He came to her side in two or three steps, "Wow, there are quite a lot!"
"Right!" Su Ziling raised his chin, "I found it."
Lu Yan chuckled, "Could this be your mushroom nest?"
"You bold little thief! You are really coveting my mushroom nest!" Su Ziling cooperated with him while picking mushrooms.
"Of course not. I picked up all your mushrooms while you were away. But then again, the mushrooms are really plump this year."
Su Ziling nodded, "It is much fatter than last year, but the mushrooms are not good either."
"What's wrong?" Lu Yan looked at her.
Su Ziling: "What a waste of chicken!"
Lu Yan: "..."
She continued to talk to herself, "You haven't eaten fresh chicken stewed with mushrooms yet? Then you are in for a treat today."
In the empty woods, the two men talked as they picked up the trash. They didn't feel scared at all. They had only picked up two-thirds of the trash, and both backpacks were full.
Su Ziling straightened up and said, "Looks like I have to call my big brother and the others to come over for support."
Then he walked out, "You pick it up first, I'll go outside and yell a few times, it's too deep in here, the sound can't be heard outside."
She walked to the bright place, put her hands around her mouth, and said, "Brother! Brother! Sister-in-law! Where are you?"
She roared twice and then stopped and listened carefully to the echo. The forest was very deep and she was standing on the top of the mountain. The echo reverberated in the mountains. Only when the echo died down could she hear their voices.
"Here they are. Do you have any mushrooms?"
"Yes, the backpack is full, but there are still some left here. Come over and fill them up." Su Ziling shouted, and after hearing a response from the other side, he walked back.
"You pick them up first, I'll see if there are any more nearby." Su Ziling didn't walk far, but looked around. Unexpectedly, she actually came across a field of white broom mushrooms.
The broom mushrooms came in large clumps and were quick to pick up. She picked up all of them and put them together, then looked to the side.
Finally, after making sure that there was nothing left, he returned to the mushroom tree.
Su Zizhong and the others came very quickly. I guess the two of them were jogging and were a little out of breath.
"Why are you so out of breath? Did you run here?" Su Ziling handed the water to Wang Anan and took her backpack.
"There are people all over the mountain. With your shout, everyone in the mountain probably knows that you have found mushrooms. You are afraid that others will come looking for you, so you ran faster."
"Ah?" Su Ziling looked around. "It seems that no one came when we entered the mountain?"
"The rain has just stopped and we can't do any work. I guess everyone wants to go into the mountains for a walk." Su Zizhong also drank a sip of water, put the backpack aside and picked it up with both hands.
I saw that they also picked up half a basket of mushrooms.
Looking at Su Ziling and Lu Yan's full backpacks, Wang Anan looked a little embarrassed, "Ah, you picked up so much, but I picked up the least."
"We haven't picked up as much as you, sister-in-law. We were just lucky to find a mushroom tree here. There are also a bunch of broom mushrooms over here. You guys pick them up first. I'll go get the broom mushrooms over here."
Wang Anan nodded and said, "We have to hurry up, otherwise it will be bad if someone sees us."
Everyone has their own mushroom nest, and they usually hide it well so that they can pick it up next time they come.
If more people knew about it, the mushroom nest would be turned upside down.
The four of them were very fast. They picked up the shiitake mushrooms and broom mushrooms, restored the mushroom nest, and then left quickly.
"By the way, big brother, have you seen Twenty?" Su Ziling just then remembered that Twenty had not arrived yet.
Su Zizhong shook his head, "I haven't seen him since I separated from you guys."
"Don't worry about him, let's go back first. He will come back naturally when the time comes." Lu Yan said.
Considering that he was good at martial arts and often went into the mountains, and Su Ziling and Wang Anan were very cold, they actually went back early.
On the way down the mountain, I actually saw a lot of people picking mushrooms in the mountains.
"Xiao Qing? It really is you. When I heard your voice just now, I felt it sounded a bit like yours."
"Hey, auntie, are you going into the mountains too?"
"Yes, yes, the rain just stopped and I have nothing to do, so I thought I'd come in and take a look around, and try to pick up as much as I can. Did you pick up anything?"
"We came early and picked up some shiitake mushrooms. It's September now, and other mushrooms are almost finished."
"Wow! You picked up so many old ones! Where did you pick them up?"
Su Ziling pointed in a random direction and said, "I ran a long way. I went around the whole circle but didn't pick up many mushrooms. I got soaked."
"Look, we just got here not long ago, and you see, we're soaked too."
The woman stretched out her legs to show her her wet trouser legs.
"Then you guys pick it up, we'll go back first, it's so wet and cold."
"Hey, hurry back. Be careful not to catch a cold. Go back and make some ginger soup or something to drive away the cold."
After separating from a few others, Su Ziling and the others went straight home.
"I didn't see it just now. Did they pick up the mushrooms?" Wang Anan walked side by side with her, while Lu Yan and Su Zizhong walked behind.
"Enough for two plates." Su Ziling stood on tiptoe to take a look. There were leaves under the backpack, and on the leaves were some miscellaneous mushrooms, similar in type to theirs.
