Everything in the forest is reviving now, the scenery is just right, mountain flowers are blooming, and it is full of greenery.

The three of them walked on the hillside and soon found plump, earth-yellow little mushrooms under the bushes.

"Mom and Dad, look, this is porcini!" Su Xiaoxue said to them.

The two men stepped forward and looked carefully at the appearance of the porcini.

Su's mother said, "I see this a lot every day, but I didn't know it was edible. Looking at its color, I thought it was poisonous and I didn't dare to get close to it. I had to wash my hands after touching it. I didn't know it was like meat and could be sold at such a high price."

Su Xiaoxue smiled and responded: "Now that we know, let's work hard!"

But she also told her parents that there is a kind of mushroom that is similar to porcini, but it is poisonous.

In order to prevent them from picking the wrong ones and mixing them in, Su Xiaoxue said directly: "Pick the ones that are exactly the same as this one. Don't touch any that are slightly different!"

The two elders were also obedient and only recognized this same type.

After picking the fruits and bringing them home, Su Xiaoxue would screen them again and scrape off the dirt at the roots.

Their family has been busy with this matter for two days in a row. Even if they don't go out and tell others about it, people will come into the yard to see what's going on.

"Xiaoxue, what are you doing? Why do you seem to go out every day?" Aunt Su came forward and asked with a smile.

Su Xiaoxue responded, "Nothing, just go pick some mushrooms to eat."

There were only a few unprocessed mushrooms left in front of her.

In addition to porcini, there are also chicken mushrooms and other mushrooms.

But others are less.

The chicken mushrooms are more delicious than porcini, but the portion is limited, so Su Xiaoxue arranged for her family to eat them all.

Seeing that it was a chicken mushroom, Aunt Su's eyes lit up and asked, "Do you go to the mountains to pick mushrooms every day?"

"No!" Su Xiaoxue said, "I'm going to take a walk after finishing my work. There's a lot to do in the fields, so I can't go there every day. Why, does Aunt see me going up the mountain every day?"

Aunt Su had indeed seen Su Xiaoxue going towards the mountain several times. After all, she lived next door, so she naturally cared about everything.

Seeing her ask this, Aunt Su didn't feel embarrassed, she just smiled and said, "Isn't this just caring about your family?"

Su Xiaoxue sneered in her heart. Care?

She smiled and said, "Aunt, if you have time to care about me, why don't you care about Lingling? She's getting married soon. Is everything ready for the wedding?"

Su Xiaoxue changed from her usual submissive and timid appearance, smiling brightly without a trace of timidity.

Aunt Su knew that Su Xiaoxue had changed a lot recently. Thinking that she was going to marry Qin Chi, she probably thought that Qin Chi was supporting her.

However, thinking about what her daughter said, that Qin Chi was getting more and more miserable in his previous life and couldn't give birth, and seeing Su Xiaoxue's smug look now, Aunt Su didn't feel angry. She just thought that Su Xiaoxue was stupid to death.

She smiled and said, "Your sister's affairs have been prepared a long time ago. But you, Xiaoxue, do you know the situation of the Qin family? Don't just marry someone because they are rich. You should learn more about them!"

When Su Xiaoxue heard her say this, she wasn't sure whether her aunt knew about her past life, but she didn't care no matter what.

"Of course I got married after knowing the family well, but how much does my sister know about the Zhao family?" Su Xiaoxue retorted, "How can she be sure that the Zhao family is better than the Qin family?"

When Su Xiaoxue said this, Aunt Su was shocked.

Oh no, Su Xiaoxue must know that the Zhao family will become a millionaire in the future and wants to muddy the waters, right?

She said in a panic, "What...what are you talking about?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Aunt Su hurried towards home, unwilling to continue talking.

Watching her aunt leave in a hurry, Su Xiaoxue was a little confused. This aunt... is weird?

However, this incident did not have any impact on her. Instead, a few days later, someone in the village saw her family going to the mountains every day to pick various mushrooms. They discovered that they had picked porcini mushrooms many times, and some people even tried to pick them to eat.

After it was confirmed that it was edible, more and more people started to go picking it.

When Su's mother saw this, she became anxious. "Look, there are more people picking porcini mushrooms now."

Su Xiaoxue smiled and said, "It's okay, let them pick them. They will know sooner or later. We have picked a lot recently. Besides, they just pick them home to eat. These mushrooms can't be kept for long. Besides, no one knows where there are more in the mountains as well as we do."

Su's mother felt very sad because she had finally seen the money, but it was gone again immediately.

Su Xiaoxue was relieved.

She had never thought of making money with porcini mushrooms. After all, when she was reborn, she only thought that she could make some money by selling the goods on the streets.

This porcini mushroom business is a cost-free business. They only need to spend some time to do it. If they can pick it for one day, it's good. If they can pick it for two days, they will make a profit.

Nowadays, they have picked a lot and dried a lot of them. When the time comes, they can sell the dried ones on the street and make money.

What's more, she knew that there were many places, but they were very far away and it would take a day to get there.

People nowadays don’t have the idea of ​​buying or selling, and if they want to eat some at home, they just let their children pick them.

In order to avoid any harm from eating the mushrooms, Su Xiaoxue went to explain to those who were picking mushrooms the difference between porcini and a poisonous kind of porcini.

"Don't make the wrong choice. If you make the wrong choice, you'll end up being poisoned."

When the villagers heard Su Xiaoxue say this, they all thanked her.

"So that's how it is. Many of these mushrooms look alike, but I didn't expect some of them to be good and some to be so poisonous."

Su Xiaoxue nodded, "Well, just be careful. When cooking, remember to cook it thoroughly and don't mess with it."

After telling everyone, Su Xiaoxue started planning her next trip to the market to sell porcini mushrooms.

The day after tomorrow is market day. Su Xiaoxue plans to go to a place she knows in the mountains tomorrow and pick as much as possible in one go.

Moreover, there are not only porcini mushrooms, but also quite a few chicken mushrooms!

That night, Su Xiaoxue told her mother, "Tomorrow we will go to the mountains together. Dad will stay at home. We will pick more fruits and I will go to the county town to sell them the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, I agree." Su's mother replied.

Erni and Xiaoni also want to go, but tomorrow is not the weekend and they don’t have a day off. They can only watch and hope that their mother and elder sister can pick more porcini mushrooms in the mountains tomorrow.

The next day, the sky was still gray, and the mother and daughter got up, had breakfast, and took some dry food, and prepared to go to the mountains.

It was still early, and although some people in the village had gotten up, no one noticed the mother and daughter.

Each of them carried a large basket, which could carry at least thirty or forty kilograms of things.

If Su Xiaoxue goes there today, even if she can't pick all the fruits, she will at least be able to pick a lot.

The road is very long, and it takes more than an hour just to walk along the winding path.

It was the first time Su's mother came here, and she asked Su Xiaoxue uncertainly, "Xiaoxue, is there much in here?"

"Well, there should be more."

Part of this mountain belongs to their village. Tea trees are planted on that part of the mountain. Previously, it was used by the entire brigade. The tea leaves picked every year were sold, and the money earned could be used to provide for the use of the entire village.

However, after the policy was changed to contract responsibility to each household, the management of the tea mountain in the village was not as strict as before. Now that Qingming Festival has passed again, and the tea has been picked, under normal circumstances, no one comes to the entire mountain.

This also gives the mother and daughter more room to operate without being known.

There are a lot of mushrooms growing under the tea trees, but they are not porcini, but chicken mushrooms!

This stuff tastes better than porcini.
