As soon as I was reborn, my fiancé came to propose marriage!
Chapter 62 Wild Fruits
"Silly child, you married into our family, we are a family, who else can I protect if I don't protect you?"
"Hurry up and go to the mountain to pick wild vegetables, otherwise they will all be picked by others!"
Zheng felt a little embarrassed after saying this. It was the first time she said such words to her daughter-in-law. She was shy at her age, so she urged the two of them to catch up quickly.
"Okay, mom." The two responded in unison.
Zheng walked in front to lead the way, while Cui Yunzhu and Chen Qiqi followed closely behind, since they didn't know the way anyway.
Wild vegetables in the mountains grow in clusters. People who often pick wild vegetables will roughly know where the wild vegetable nests are, so they can just go there next time.
It was Cui Yunzhu's first time going up the mountain to look for wild vegetables, so she definitely didn't know the way. Let alone Chen Qiqi. She had always relied on her mother to lead the way since she was a child. If she could find Zheng, she would have to kowtow to her.
All they had to do was follow Zheng and they wouldn't go wrong.
After walking for a while, they passed two women who came to the mountain to look for wild vegetables, but Zheng hadn't stopped yet.
Chen Qiqi was a little out of breath and couldn't walk any more. "Mom, please don't get the wrong place. How come we haven't arrived yet after walking for so long? The aunts are already picking the fruits nearby."
"We went up the mountain later than others, and those near the foot of the mountain must have finished picking. As for the two aunts just now, were they the only two you saw going up the mountain?" Zheng asked her.
"Of course not. We saw more than just the two of them at the foot of the mountain just now."
"That's right. I guess it's because there aren't many wild vegetables in a wild vegetable den, so there should be an unwritten rule when everyone goes up the mountain to pick wild vegetables - whoever finds the first one gets to pick it, and the one who comes later has to find another one."
"Otherwise, there will be more monks and less meat, and there will inevitably be another quarrel."
Cui Yunzhu talked to Chen Qiqi as they walked. Her body had been working all year round, so even after walking for a long time, her breathing did not sound disordered at all.
"Third sister-in-law, you are really amazing. You even know this." Chen Qiqi suddenly understood.
"It's like this where we are, so I guess it's the same in Yulin Village. You'll know if you pay more attention in the future."
Cui Yunzhu explained patiently.
Chen Qiqi is young and likes to play. He can’t remember many things if he doesn’t pay attention.
Cui Yunzhu thought it was a big deal. The Chen family had so many young and strong people, and there was no need for a young girl to work so hard to make a living.
Not like she was before.
"Your third sister-in-law is right. This has always been the rule. I asked you to learn more but you refused to listen. Now you can't even find a vegetable garden!"
Zheng was extremely satisfied with Cui Yunzhu. This daughter-in-law was eloquent and had good arguments. She was not afraid at all and was capable of taking on responsibilities.
Now she knows so much about finding wild vegetables in the mountains. She is diligent, intelligent, and physically strong, and the third brother is capable. It seems that she and the third brother will have a better and better life in the future!
"I remember there was a wild vegetable nest nearby, and it was discovered by other aunts first."
Chen Qiqi stuck out her tongue.
"Go up a little further and see. Can't you see they are all gone? They are dying after just a few steps."
Zheng really couldn't do anything about her.
Chen Qiqi had no choice but to drag her tired body up. Cui Yunzhu quickly reached out and helped her up: "You are too weak."
We didn't walk far when the girl became exhausted. She was apparently still alive and kicking at the foot of the mountain just now, but her voice became so loud when she started to curse.
Just as she finished speaking, she felt someone pulling her sleeves. It turned out to be...
Chen Qiqi secretly winked at her, and Cui Yunzhu understood immediately that this girl wanted to be lazy, haha.
"I, my stomach suddenly hurts a little, I want to go to the bathroom."
Zheng was really speechless this time: "Why do you have so many things to do? You can't walk and your stomach hurts. Go quickly! I'll wait for you here, come back soon!"
"Mom..." Chen Qiqi said with a playful smile.
"What's wrong again?" Zheng's voice began to sound a little impatient.
"I'm scared to go alone, let my third sister-in-law go with me."
She has a rogue attitude.
"Okay, okay, I'll go with you."
Cui Yunzhu smiled secretly, and before Zheng could say anything, she turned around and said to her, "Mom, it's quite dangerous in the mountains. Qiqi might not be safe alone. I'll go with her first and come back to see you in a while."
Zheng found a rock to sit down and rest. She put the basket aside and nodded to Cui Yunzhu: "Go and come back soon. Be careful, both of you."
After the two left, she looked down at the empty basket. Why did it feel like she had been busy for half a day, but there was nothing?
They walked towards the path. Chen Qiqi looked back and saw Zheng's figure getting farther and farther away.
She immediately changed her expression and said to Cui Yunzhu happily, "Third sister-in-law, come on, I'll take you to pick wild fruits!"
This is even faster than the Sichuan face-changing she saw in modern times. If one day Chen Qiqi has such an opportunity like her, it would be nice to take this as a job.
Hahaha!
Cui Yunzhu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "It's just picking some wild fruits, why don't you just go and pick them openly? Why do you have to go through so much trouble?"
"Oh, Third Sister-in-law, you don't understand. Mother doesn't allow me to pick wild fruits to eat."
"why?"
Aren’t wild fruits delicious?
She used to pick them often when she was a child. The sour and sweet taste is so delicious!
"Well, there was a time when an aunt picked some wild red fruits and brought them home. Because she wanted to feed them to her children, she left them there without touching them."
"Who knew that after an entire afternoon of letting them go, a bunch of snakes would come! It scared the whole village!"
"After that, my mother never let me eat wild fruits from the mountains again, saying that they would attract snakes. She also said that there were many wild fruits on the mountain, and if one of them was poisonous, it would be bad if I died from eating it."
"Well, I'm not a fool. She won't allow me to eat people I know every time."
When Cui Yunzhu heard this, she thought, isn’t this just snakeberry?
"Is it a small, round, red fruit with lots of soft things on the surface that look like thorns?"
"Yes, yes, that's the fruit."
Chen Qiqi nodded repeatedly.
Yes, the people of Daxia Kingdom did not have a deep understanding of wild fruits. Just like wild vegetables, they only knew which ones were edible and picked them all home without caring whether they were bitter or astringent. That was why Chen Qiqi had always hated eating wild vegetables.
They know even less about wild fruits, so it is normal that they don't dare to eat fruits from the mountains at will.
It was only after she went to the modern era that she learned about snakeberry from the Internet.
"This kind of fruit doesn't actually attract snakes. It may be that there are other things in that family's home that attract them." Cui Yunzhu explained.
"So that's how it is. Third sister-in-law, you really know a lot. I'll let you look at the wild fruits before I eat them next time."
"I only know a few types. Although this red fruit doesn't attract snakes, it is slightly poisonous. You can't eat it carelessly!"
