He was still in a daze, and Xiao Erhei came over and asked, "What's the matter with you? Why don't you pick up fungi?"

Lin Qiao glanced at Xiao Erhei, then lowered his head to stare at the black spot on his wrist, waited for him to vaguely see the space again, and meditated outside again, waited for the surroundings to brighten again, and asked, "What did you see just now? "

Xiao Erhei looked at a loss, "It's just you!"

Lin Qiao asked again, "Then what did I do?"

Xiao Erhei still looked blank, "Look down at your wrist!"

Sure enough, he didn't enter the space, it should just be the so-called consciousness.

Lin Qiao thought about it for a while, and felt that it was necessary to experiment more to see what kind of space it was.

The two picked up the fungus again until the fungus at the bottom of the valley was lighted up.Lin Qiao took a look, Xiao Erhei picked up almost half of the basket, and he also had half of the basket.

Xiao Erhei said embarrassingly, "I will share half of the money I sell the mushrooms with you later, okay?"

Lin Qiao was puzzled, "Why?"

Do you feel embarrassed?

As expected, Xiao Erhei said, "You found this place, and I owe it to you to thank you, of course!"

This kid is really honest, like his brother, he should be a good tutor of Aunt Li.

Lin Qiao picked up the backpack and said boldly, "You don't need to thank me. Next time you meet something good, just think of me."

Xiao Erhei nodded vigorously, "I will definitely."

It took the two of them another long time to climb up the slope, and Xiao Erhei exhaled, "It's still cool up there, and the bottom of the valley is so boring!"

yes!The temperature at the bottom of the valley was at least ten degrees higher than that at the top. Lin Qiao couldn't help guessing that maybe this was the reason why the boletus grew early!

When we got back to the creek, the sun had already risen and the temperature was much higher. Lin Qiao took off his jacket, and saw that the shoes he just bought yesterday were covered in mud. They couldn't be dirty, so he took off the shoes I want to wash it.

Xiao Erhei hurriedly stopped him, "Don't wash it with water. After the mud dries, use a brush to clean it again. If the shoes get wet with water, they will rot quickly."

Since he said so, it should be true. Lin Qiao put the shoes back on his bare feet, thinking that he must buy a few pairs of socks later. Wearing shoes on bare feet is so awkward.

After Lin Qiao washed his hands, he saw that Xiao Erhei was also washing, so he leaned over to take a look, but his skin was relatively dark. After looking at it for a long time, he was sure that there were no black spots on his wrists. Lin Qiao was relieved that there were no black spots. , don't scare other people's children when the time comes, it seems that you won't get space as long as you go to the bottom of the valley.

Xiao Erhei washed his hands, wiped his body again, and said, "Let's go! Go to my house, my brother is waiting at home!"

The house of the Li family is not big, with mud walls and thatched roof, dilapidated. There are three rooms in the main house, and kitchen huts are built on both sides, which are also dilapidated.

A little girl was feeding chickens in the yard. When she saw Xiao Erhei coming back, she put down what she was holding and rushed over, shouting, "Second brother, are you back? Have you picked up any fungus?"

Xiao Erhei quickly squatted down to follow her, and said with a smile, "I picked up a lot, Meizi, do you want to take a look?"

The little girl shouted excitedly, "I want to see, I want to see!"

Xiao Erhei put down the pannier, opened the lid, the little girl leaned over, and then yelled again, "Mother, brother, come and see, the second brother picked up a lot of fungus!"

Aunt Li came out of the kitchen and said with a stern face, "Meizi, speak softly."

The little girl immediately covered her mouth, but she was still grinning.

Seeing Lin Qiao, Aunt Li smiled embarrassingly, but quickly thanked him, and then complained that he shouldn't have given Dahei so many buns yesterday, it was too expensive. Seeing her like that, Lin Qiao thought , He is really nice, ten thousand times better than Aunt Bai.

At this time, Dahei also came around from behind the house, with mud in one hand, he should have been working just now.

Seeing that Xiao Erhei had picked up so many fungi, Aunt Li was overjoyed, and urged them to go to town quickly, lest the fungus be defeated.

When they got into the car, Aunt Li handed them another bag of food, fearing that they would be hungry on the way, so Xiao Erhei's younger sister sent them to the entrance of the village before returning.

Seeing the little girl running back to the village, Lin Qiao asked, "How old is your sister?"

Xiao Erhei said with a smile, "I'm six years old, but I feel sorry for others."

Lin Qiao asked again, "What about you and your brother? How old are you?"

Looking at Dahei's appearance, how can he be 17 years old, I don't know if he kissed him?

Xiao Erhei still smiled, "I am fourteen, my brother is seventeen."

The two had a conversation, and Xiao Erhei took out the bag of food his mother gave him. It was a bag of vegetable dumplings, and Lin Qiao also shared a few.

Lin Qiao tasted it, and it was not bad, it was fragrant and a little salty, and then thought that he still had vegetarian buns, so he took them out and shared them with them.

It was almost noon when they arrived in town.

When he was about to get off the car, Lin Qiao asked, "Where are we going to sell it? A vegetable market?"

Xiao Erhei rubbed his head and said, "It's not easy to sell such expensive things in the vegetable market! Let's go find Brother Zhuzi!"

Lin Qiao frowned and asked, "Brother Zhuzi's master bought so much yesterday, will he still want it today?"

Xiao Erhei was stunned for a moment, he obviously didn't think of this, and immediately felt a little depressed, but Dahei said, "His master doesn't want it, you can go to him and ask him to take you to the restaurant, the restaurant will definitely take it."

Xiao Erhei nodded vigorously, "Yeah! Brother Zhuzi is amazing, he knows a lot of people"

Now it can only be like this, the two got out of the car and walked towards the pharmacy.Dahei still guards the ox cart. In ancient times, an ox cart was very expensive, so you have to look carefully.

Seeing the two of them coming, Brother Zhuzi smiled and said, "Are you here to deliver mushrooms again today?"

Xiao Erhei nodded, "Brother Zhuzi, does your master still need mushrooms today?"

Brother Zhuzi came around from behind the counter, "Let me see how many there are first?"

Xiao Erhei hurriedly put down the pannier, and untied the cover to show him.

Brother Zhuzi took a few out of the inside and looked at them, and said, "That's right, today's ones are fresher, and the portions are quite large!"

Xiao Erhei said again, "Xiaobai also has it today!"

Brother Zhuzi nodded, "Okay, I'll ask. If my master doesn't want it, I'll take you to the restaurant."

Lin Qiao and the others didn't have to wait long before Brother Zhuzi came back and said, "Master said, the fungus won't last long, and he wants a pound at most today."

Xiao Erhei looked a little depressed, he only weighed a catty, so what to do with the rest?

Brother Zhuzi patted Xiao Erhei's head and said, "Don't worry, I'll take you to the restaurant! And the master said that Boss Ma in the teahouse also likes to eat mushrooms, so we can also go to the teahouse to ask."

Only then did Xiao Erhei smile a little bit. Brother Zhuzi brought a scale and weighed a catty. After handing thirty coins to Xiao Erhei, he yelled at the inside, "Gouzi, help me look at the store. Be back in a moment."

Lin Qiao: ...there is such a name as "Gouzi"!

Brother Zhuzi led the two of them to the restaurant, but instead of going through the main entrance, they walked around to the backyard and entered through the back door.

It is now noon, and there should be quite a few people eating in the restaurant lobby.

After entering the yard, Brother Zhuzi said loudly, "Brother Song, is your shopkeeper there?"

After a while, a tall and thin man in his 20s came out. The man said, "So it's Zhuzhu! My shopkeeper is here. What can you do with him?"

Brother Zhuzi pointed at Xiao Erhei and the others, "My cousin picked up some fungi, and would like to ask your shopkeeper if I can?"

Brother Song glanced at Lin Qiao and Xiao Erhei, and then said, "I'll ask."

After speaking, he entered the house.

Lin Qiao and the others waited in the yard for a long time before a short and fat man came out. Brother Zhu immediately stepped forward and bowed, "Hello, shopkeeper!"

The shopkeeper also returned the gift and said, "Bring the fungus to have a look."

Lin Qiao and Xiao Erhei hurriedly put down the basket and opened the lid.The shopkeeper took out a few mushrooms, looked at them, and asked with a frown, "Is this a boletus? How come there are this season?"

Brother Zhuzi immediately replied, "It's porcini mushrooms. My cousins ​​picked them up in the mountains, and my master also bought some. They said they were delicious."

The shopkeeper glanced at Brother Zhuzi and nodded, "Okay, I want it all, twenty Wen a catty, how about it?"

Xiao Er stared with black eyes, "Only twenty coins a catty?"

Brother Zhuzi quickly tugged his arm, motioning him to stop talking, and then said to the shopkeeper with a smile, "My master said this is a good thing, I believe the shopkeeper knows it too, and besides, the porcini mushrooms in this season, you can buy them from other places." No!"

The shopkeeper thought for a while, and finally said, "Thirty Wen a catty, no more."

Brother Zhuzi glanced at Lin Qiao and the others, and seeing that the two of them had no objection, he said, "Okay, just thirty cents a catty."

Finally, we weighed it. Xiao Erhei had fifteen catties, and Lin Qiao also had ten catties. The two happily got the money and thanked the shopkeeper. Here, I will not treat you badly."

The two thanked each other again.After leaving the courtyard, Xiao Erhei said with a trembling voice, "Brother Zhuzi, grab me and see if I'm dreaming?"

Brother Zhuzi really went to pull his ear, "Does it hurt? Are you dreaming?"

Xiao Erhei hopped his feet in pain, "It hurts, brother Zhuzi, take it easy!"

Brother Zhuzi let go of his hand and said with a smile, "Look at your worthless appearance."

Xiao Erhei rubbed his ears, very dissatisfied, "I just don't believe it, my father can't earn so much money in a month, I earned it back in the morning, it feels like a dream."

Lin Qiao also laughed. It was not easy for farmers in ancient times to earn money. It would be good to have enough food all year round. The money earned by Xiao Erhei was enough for their family's expenses for several months. No wonder he was so happy.

When the three of them passed by an alley, Lin Qiao took out thirty cents from his bosom, handed it to Brother Zhuzi, and said with a smile, "Brother, I'm sorry to trouble you, a small gesture is not a respect!"

Seeing this, Xiao Erhei hurried to get the money, Zhuzi quickly stopped him and said, "What are you doing? I said don't reveal the money, you are so small, you are quite courageous, hurry up and put it away!"

After speaking, he pushed Lin Qiao's hand back, "If you want to thank me, just bring some glutinous rice cakes when you come next time."
