"They won't find our mushroom nest, will they?" Wang Anan had just had a great time picking mushrooms, but when he thought of the densely packed mushrooms on the tree, he became a little worried.

"No, I pointed them around," Su Ziling grinned, "but I didn't point to where we were picking mushrooms. And I called you all outside, so they couldn't find it."

The road was too slippery and Su Ziling was so busy talking that he slipped and almost fell.

Fortunately, Lu Yan reacted quickly, grabbing her collar with one hand and holding the backpack with the other.

"Tsk! How come you can't even walk properly?"

Even though he reacted quickly, a few mushrooms were still shaken out. After Su Ziling stood firm, he patted his chest, still feeling a little scared.

Su Zizhong also looked worried, "Xiaoqing, how are you?"

Seeing that he was about to step forward, Wang Anan raised her hand and grabbed him, then shook her head gently at him.

Su Zizhong was stunned for a moment, then his eyes moved back and forth between Su Ziling and Lu Yan. Wang Anan said nothing, but the smile in her eyes expressed everything.

Wang Anan covered her mouth, unable to hide the smile in her eyes. She made a gesture to Su Zizhong to leave early, and the two of them held hands and left quietly.

Only Su Ziling and Lu Yan were left picking mushrooms.

"It's not that I can't walk well. It's obviously that the road is too slippery!" she muttered.

"Yes, yes, yes, the road is too slippery. I'll go back with a hoe and dig it out to vent your anger."

Listening to Lu Yan's words to coax the child, Su Ziling laughed out of anger.

"Lu Yan!"

"Listen."

"What did you mean by that? I'm seventeen. I'm not a three-year-old kid. Even if I was, we wouldn't treat him like that!"

"Ah? You're already seventeen? I thought you were three and a half! You can even trip over yourself when you walk."

"I told you, the road was slippery, I didn't trip myself." Su Ziling said gritting his teeth.

"Yes, yes, yes, the road is too slippery."

Listening to the conversation between the two people behind him, Wang Anan laughed secretly, "These two are three and a half years old, no more."

Su Zizhong didn't say anything, just touched her head.

"Hey, where is Lu Yan from? Have you found out who is in his family? Ah Qing is so capable, don't let anyone bully her."

"But Ah Qing is so powerful, she will definitely not be bullied. I'm just afraid that Lu Yan has a lot of aunts and uncles at home, and if there's a powerful mother-in-law, life will be difficult."

"Although she is very powerful, she can't stand those people's talk. You say something and I say something. I'm afraid that Ah Qing will be wronged."

"You don't know, there is one in our village. Her mother-in-law is very fierce. There are several daughters-in-law in the family, but she is the only one with a soft temper. The mother-in-law tortures her as much as possible..."

As Wang Anan spoke, the expression on her face was quite vivid. She frowned and pursed her nose from time to time. She did not forget to wipe the sweat off her face, but she never let go of the hand holding Su Zizhong.

After not getting a response for a long time, she frowned and gently shook his hand, "I'm talking to you."

Su Zizhong then moved his eyes away from the hand being pulled and responded softly, "Yeah, I'm listening."

"Don't worry about it. Xiaoqing has her own ideas about her affairs."

"Ideas?" Wang Anan looked at him blankly.

Su Zizhong looked puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Wang Anan's mouth twitched. "You said Ah Qing has ideas? I don't agree with this. She is very smart and has ideas when it comes to craftsmanship, business, and food, but this may not necessarily be the case when it comes to love."

As she spoke, she turned around and glanced at the two people behind her, "Look at her, the peacock's feathers are open like that, and the feathers are about to brush her face, but she doesn't react at all."

Peacock?

Open screen?

Su Zizhong lowered his eyes, his mouth twitching, and he managed to hold back his laughter for a long time. Although it was not nice to say this, but...

Quite appropriate.

He ruffled her hair and said, "Let's go. Didn't you say you were hungry? Let's go catch a chicken before they come back. Xiaoqing's chicken stewed with mushrooms is also a specialty."

"Grandma! We're back! Hey, let me show you how many mushrooms we picked today!"

Before entering the door, Wang Anan started shouting.

Su Zizhong smiled and shook his head gently, with a bit of indulgence and helplessness.

"Are you back?" Grandma Su and her mother were turning over and drying the ginger and taro powder. The rain stopped in the early morning and the sun came up in the morning. It was raining heavily yesterday, but today the sky was cloudless and the sun was shining brightly. The ginger and taro powder that was filtered in the morning was also about 30% to 40% dry.

"Wow, you picked up so many. Put them in the yard and change your clothes quickly. I'll wash the mushrooms later."

After saying this, Grandma Su looked at Mother Su and said, "Go and make some ginger soup for the children. It's autumn now, and they are most likely to catch a cold."

"Well, I'll go right away." Mother Su put down the chopsticks in her hand and looked towards the door. "Where are Xiaoqing and the others?"

"It's in the back, we'll be there soon." Su Zizhong fetched a basin of water and went to the kitchen to pour some hot water, "Come and wash your hands."

After washing their hands, they went back to the house to change clothes. After changing clothes, Wang Anan took the old clothes out to wash, while Su Zizhong took the money and went out to buy a chicken.

When Su Ziling came back, Wang Anan was fetching water to wash clothes. "Ah Qing is back? Just change your clothes and I'll wash them together."

Then he asked Grandma Su, "Grandma, are there any dirty clothes in your room? If so, let's wash them together."

After asking Grandma Su, they also didn't forget to ask Su's mother.

"No, just wash your own. Move the basin to the yard. It will be warmer here because of the sun." Grandma Su also brought out a stool for her.

Su Ziling changed her clothes, took out the wet clothes, and smiled, "Thank you, sister-in-law!"

"You girl, you finally have some free time!" Grandma Su scolded with a smile.

Su Ziling stuck out her tongue, "Of course not, my sister-in-law loves me."

Su Ziling also picked up chopsticks and helped to flip the ginger and taro flour. She swallowed her saliva as she smelled the faint fragrance in the air.

"Grandma, do you want to try the ginger taro powder?"

Grandma Su shook her head and laughed, "I think you are greedy. If you want to eat it, go ahead and make it."

Thinking it was still early for dinner, she went into the kitchen, took out a bowl and scooped out a bowl of ginger and taro powder.

Boil water in a pot, pour the ginger and taro powder in the bowl into a larger basin, add some warm water to dissolve the ginger and taro powder.

When the water in the pot boils, pour the melted ginger-taro powder paste directly into it and stir it constantly with a spatula. The method is similar to that of pea powder, but the ginger-taro powder cooks faster.

After a while, the white ginger-taro powder paste turned brown, big bubbles appeared in the pot, and the ginger-taro powder gradually became transparent.

When the powder becomes transparent, you can scoop it out. One bowl of powder can make more than ten bowls of ginger and taro soup.

"Is this made from the ginger and taro powder?" Su's mother came to the stove at some point, smelled the fragrance in the air, looked at the ginger and taro soup on the stove, and swallowed subconsciously.

"How do you eat this? Same as soy flour, let it cool and set, then mix with vinaigrette or something?"

"No, this is sweet. Just pick it up and eat it." Su Ziling took a spoon and put one in each bowl.

"Mother, please taste it and see if it is sweet."

He brought a bowl to Su's mother, and put the rest on a tray and took it out at once.

"Let's drink ginger and taro soup!" (Ginger and taro soup)
