Reborn in the 60s and adopted

Tang Jianguo and Lin Xiao looked at each other and followed silently.

The pine forest is different from the village. It is full of greenery and the air is filled with the fragrance of pine trees. A group of three people came to the pine forest happily. Their purpose today is to see if they can pick mushrooms in the pine forest.

The three of them couldn't wait to start their mushroom adventure. They stepped carefully on the pine needles, fearing that they would accidentally step on the mushrooms they wanted to find.

Maybe because of the busy farming season, the villagers did not go up the mountain to pick mushrooms. There were many kinds of mushrooms in the pine forest, including white, red, yellow, and various shapes.

Tang Mei didn't know which one was edible, so she decided to pick them all and let Aunt Tang San tell them apart.

Before they knew it, Tang Mei had walked ahead and was a little distance away from the two of them.

From time to time, Lin Xiao could be heard shouting excitedly, "Come and see, there is a big white mushroom here," "Come and see, there is a red mushroom here."

Lin Xiao and Tang Jianguo gathered around the mushrooms, excitedly discussing their characteristic shapes.

"This can't be eaten, it's poisonous." Tang Jianguo has followed his mother up the mountain since he was a child, and he already knew whether mushrooms can be eaten or not.

"But this one looks very nice." Lin Xiao asked puzzledly.

"No, even if the mushrooms look good, you can't eat them. Eating them can cause dizziness at the very least, and you may end up in the hospital at the worst." Tang Jianguo was not trying to scare him. Once upon a time, a child was so hungry that he picked some mushrooms to eat and died directly. His family members were almost crying their heads off.

"Oh, okay. What about this one?" Lin Xiao had to give up this good-looking mushroom and showed the ugly yellow mushroom to Tang Jianguo.

Slowly, you ask and I answer, the strangeness between the two disappeared without a trace. In the end, the two of them were arm in arm, just like brothers.

The three of them had a fruitful afternoon trip.

Return to Uncle Tang’s house.

"Meimei, I'll put it under the eaves for you." Tang Jianguo put down the backpack. He planned to go home first to prepare the meal so that his mother and younger sister wouldn't have to work hard when they came back.

"Brother, don't go back. We picked so many mushrooms today. Call my aunt and sister to come and eat together later." Tang Mei came to her third uncle's house and had not eaten with her eldest wife yet.

"How can that be possible?" Tang Jianguo refused without thinking. Everyone would be short of food at this time.

"Listen to me, your family has taken care of me so much, what's wrong with having a meal with me, brother, don't refuse me." Tang Mei looked at Tang Jianguo with pitiful eyes.

"Yeah." Tang Jianguo agreed sullenly. He was not afraid that his uncle and aunt would be unhappy about coming to his uncle's house for dinner. They were both very generous people.

"Brother, that's good that you agreed. You and that guy, please help pick out the poisonous mushrooms in here. I'll go cook the rice first." Tang Mei couldn't help drooling at the sight of the fresh mushrooms. She wanted to let everyone taste her cooking skills tonight, stir-fried mushrooms with sour peppers, stir-fried mushrooms with bacon, and mushroom egg drop soup.

Lin Xiao silently offered his initiative, because he had just learned how to pick mushrooms today.

In the evening, all the people who worked hard returned home, including my aunt and Tang Li, and the table was full of people, probably enough to fill up a large space.

"Wow, the food smells so good. Who is cooking today?" Uncle Tang looked at the delicious mushroom feast on the table.

"Yes, Meimei, we both helped out." Tang Jianguo put his arm around Lin Xiao's shoulders, fearing that he would miss out on the credit for their efforts.

"Wow, it's my daughter, she's so awesome." Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes. He didn't expect that after just asking casually, it turned out to be his little daughter who cooked. Suddenly, he felt a sense of pride.

"Wow, Xiao Meimei is so great." Wang Ran.

"Xiao Meimei is so amazing." Pei Yanyan.

"Xiao Meimei is so hardworking." Our aunt.

"·····" Tang Li and Tang Jianguo, you have already used all the words of praise to praise me, what else can I praise?

"··"Lin Xiao, I am only responsible for eating.

Tang Mei received a wave of praise, her whole face turned red, and she almost fell under the table.

"Okay, everyone, start eating and try my daughter's cooking." Uncle Tang picked up the chopsticks and took a bite. His eyes immediately lit up. Hehe, it's really delicious.

Everyone picked up the dishes very quickly. The first reason was that they were really delicious, smooth in the mouth, some were crispy and very fresh. The second reason was that they had no chance to eat mushrooms in the past two years, mainly because of the drought and the small amount of grain could not be harvested. The villagers were wandering around in the mountains all day, so it was difficult to pick mushrooms.

After the meal, everyone felt a little full and no one stood up immediately. They all wanted to sit for a while to allow their stomachs to digest more food.

Uncle Tang looked at everyone and stood up and went to the basket where he usually kept his supplies and took out the specialties he had prepared for Lin Xiao.

Everyone looked curiously at the basket that Uncle Tang placed on the table.

"Ahem, Lin Xiao, this is the gift that your uncle prepared for you. Please don't reject it." After saying that, he took out the things inside with a little trepidation.
