"Hey, what delicious food did you cook today? Can you smell the aroma while you are still in the yard?" Mr. Su picked up his teapot and immediately saw the bowl of braised pork with pickled vegetables in the center.

"Pork with pickled vegetables and steamed eggs with coriander mushrooms." Su Ziling put the rice on the plate and everyone was already seated.

Everyone's eyes fell on the bowl of brightly colored pork with pickled vegetables. The steamed eggs were naturally ignored by them, and they didn't even hear that they were mushrooms.

Mr. Su used his chopsticks first and picked up a piece of meat. As soon as he took his mouthful, his eyes lit up, "Old lady, try this meat. It's fat but not greasy, thin but not greasy. It melts in your mouth. It's delicious! It's suitable for us." People with bad teeth eat it.”

"You guys should eat too. Eat more. This meat is very good."

Hearing Mr. Su say this, everyone started using their chopsticks. Su Zimu couldn't help it for a long time. When he heard that it was delicious, he stood up and took a piece.

It is just as Mr. Su said, the meat is tender and juicy, melts in your mouth, fat but not greasy, and the lean meat is not sticky.

For a moment, everyone had no time to talk, and they were immersed in cooking. Fortunately, she cooked a lot of meat, otherwise they would have finished eating just two slices per person.

The meat was gone, so they even scooped up dried plums and vegetables and ate them with rice. They were so focused on eating pork with plums and vegetables that no one even paid attention to the other dishes.

They didn't start eating other dishes until the pot of braised pork with pickled vegetables was eaten clean.

Su Zimu: "Huh? What's in this egg?"

"Mushrooms!" Su Ziling also ate it. The chicken fir fungus really lived up to its reputation. It didn't need much seasoning. It was so delicious and tender when made with simple salt and oil.

"Fungi?"

Everyone stopped and their eyes fell on her.

"Where did you... get the fungus?" Mother Su asked cautiously.

Su Ziling pointed to the backyard, "In the vegetable garden behind, there are only two flowers, which is a bit small, but they are still delicious, right?"

"backyard!!!"

Mother Su was so frightened that her mouth began to tremble.

"Yeah, what's wrong? Did you fertilize it?" Su Ziling took a chopstick and broke off the ear root, eating deliciously.

Everyone was afraid to speak. You looked at me, and I looked at you. Especially Father Su and the others were so scared. Their mouths were open, full of rice, and there was a piece of chicken fungus hanging from the corner of their mouths.

At this moment, he could neither chew nor spit.

Only Su Ziling, Axiu and Su Zimu continued to eat as if nothing happened.

Mother Su's face looked a little ugly. She glanced around and said, "Which of you hasn't eaten?"

Su A Nai: "..."

"Eat them all."

It's the eggs she shared. I didn't think about it. There is only one bowl, and it's just right for each person to share a spoonful. Everyone can eat it. Who knows...

"Stop eating!" Mother Su slapped Su Zimu.

Su Zimu looked confused, "What's wrong? Is it poisonous?"

Su A'nai sighed, alas! Now it's good, the whole family has eaten, and the family is neat and tidy.

Su Zimu took another bite, "My sister said this is edible, why do you look like you are going to die soon?"

"Besides, if it was really poisonous, it would have happened long ago. We've all been eating it for so long. If nothing happens, it means it's not poisonous!"

Su's father thought about it, and he was right. He took another bite of the egg and smiled, "Er Niu is right. Hey, don't tell me, this mushroom is really delicious."

Mother Su: "..."

Why are you so big-hearted?

"This is not poisonous and can be eaten. Eat it quickly!" Su Ziling suppressed her laughter and felt uncomfortable.

Mother Su simply broke the jar and smashed it. She had eaten so much anyway, not missing the last few bites, but as the child's father said, it was really delicious.

"Qing'er, how did you know this fungus is edible?"

Before Su Ziling could say anything, Su A'nai spoke, "I told her."

Everyone: "..."

No, do you think we are stupid or something?

You were very frightened just now. Your face was pale, but it didn't look like you knew the fungus was edible.

A'nai Su took the blame for Su Ziling without a blushing face, "I didn't notice it just now. It was mixed with eggs and you couldn't even see its original appearance. I didn't recognize it for a moment. Isn't that normal? This I’ve actually seen this thing before, and wealthy people call it chicken foot mushroom, and it seems to be quite valuable.”

It sounds like it’s true!

Su Ziling was sitting next to Su A'nai. She leaned over gently and whispered in her ear: "A'nai, is it true or not?"

Su A'nai's expression didn't change and she said without any hesitation, "It's fake."

Su Ziling: "..."

After hearing this, Mr. Su said: "..."

I always feel like this old woman is trying to poison him!

"You are so serious when you say it, aren't you afraid of being poisonous?"

Su A'nai thought for a while, "I have indeed seen chicken foot mushrooms, and they look similar to this one, but the color is different."

"What color is it?" The one Su Ziling picked was black-headed.

"The yellow one is a bit big. One flower is enough for a large bowl. Although the color and size are different, the smell and taste are similar." Su A'nai thought about it carefully.

Mr. Su: "..."

You... might as well not say anything!

Su Ziling nodded, "That might be the yellow-skinned chicken fir."

Su A'nai asked again: "Are you sure this is edible?"

"Yes, it's been so long. If something happens, it will happen already."

Su A'nai nodded, "That makes sense. Since you can eat it, I'm relieved!"

Mr. Su glanced at the two of them with an incomprehensible look.

What can I do if I don’t worry? I ate all this.

Father Su was so generous that he had no doubt at all, "This mushroom is so delicious. I remember seeing it somewhere. I'll go look for it in the mountains another day."

After the meal, Mr. Su was frightened. He felt like he had crawled back from the edge of life and death!

Although there was a slight hiccup, all the dishes were sold out, especially the braised pork with pickled vegetables, which was particularly popular.

Of course, it's not that the fungi are unpopular, it's mainly because they just showed up and everyone was so frightened that they didn't taste anything and even forgot about it.

Only Su Zimu and Axiu kept clamoring to go up the mountain to look for fungi.

After dinner, Su Zizhong and Ji Yunchu, who came to the doorstep, went to the mountain col to set up a stall.

Father Su and the others continued to make tofu. They had not finished just now, and there were still a few pots left to finish.

Su Ziling lit the fire and continued braised meat and washed dishes.

After the tofu was done, the dark clouds in the sky dispersed, and the sun hung in the sky.

"Xiao Qing, take out the tea leaves and dry them in the sun, the sun is out!" Mother Su shouted while adding alkaline water.

Su Ziling wiped the water on her hands, "Huh? The sun has come out again? Looking at the dark clouds in the morning, I thought it was going to rain."

Mr. Su looked up at the sky again, "It won't rain for a while. It will probably be cloudy for a few more days before it rains."
