PWDLAW Chapter 684: Fortunate to Have Good Food
Chapter 684: Fortunate to Have Good Food
Ye Muyu turned and walked downhill with Xiang Linger.
Soon, they encountered three people walking towards them. Xiang Linger finally realized what was happening and ran over to hug Chu Xingjun's neck excitedly, jumping up and down, "Mom, Sister-in-law said the black plants in our village are wood ear mushrooms, and they're edible!"
"We were so silly. We should have tried eating them when we were hungry. Who knew you all said they were ugly, too dark to eat, and thought they were poisonous..."
It must be said, this was a perfect misunderstanding. However, it was also evident that ordinary people who hadn't read books or had much knowledge were too afraid to casually eat these unknown wild vegetables.
Even the wild vegetables they usually ate had been passed down for many generations. Those they hadn't eaten before or weren't familiar with, they wouldn't easily touch. Otherwise, if they were poisoned, they could only end up dead.
Ye Muyu couldn't help but sigh. Reading books might not be particularly necessary but having knowledge was essential. Otherwise, even if you were looking at a treasure, you wouldn't know it was a treasure.
"This... this is great news, Ah Heng's wife, thank you..." Chu Xingjun held Ye Muyu's hand after hearing this, her eyes red with emotion.
Chu Liushi, standing by, advised, "Big sister, this is your good fortune. If you really want to thank Ah Yu, when you come back later, bring back some wood ear mushrooms for her to try. She loves trying new food like this more than receiving money, and it'll make her happier."
Ye Muyu nodded with a smile, "Mother is right, I love trying new foods the most. Speaking of which, wood ear mushrooms have many health benefits when eaten, whether stewed or in salads, they taste great."
Chu Liushi knew her very well. Ye Muyu couldn't help but sigh with satisfaction. Her mother-in-law was so considerate, giving Chu Xingjun a chance to repay her without any pressure. She was very satisfied.
"Alright, alright, when we go back home later, I'll ask Fusheng to bring some for you." Chu Xingjun wiped away her tears, and a smile appeared on her aged face with even a little more brightness in her eyes.
Ye Muyu knew that this was what hope looked like in life.
She was also happy. The more ingredients she discovered, the more fortunate she would be in the future. After all, in this day and age many ingredients were still not available, even if you had money.
What made Ye Muyu even happier was that with more of these ingredients in the future, the villagers would definitely start growing them, which would increase their income and the economy would improve.
She was planning to open a shop in the future. The higher Chu Heng's status, the bigger business she could do, achieving financial freedom to do other things.
"Now that we're here, let's go up the mountain and see if we can find anything edible." Qian was quite interested in the taste of these wood ear mushrooms.

Ye Muyu nodded in agreement.
They continued walking together.
Along the way, they picked up quite a few mushrooms and then went to the orchard.
The orchard had just been transplanted, so there were no fruits yet and even the leaves were scarce.
But there were at least fifty or sixty free-range chickens running around inside, which was quite lively. Perhaps they had run over from the fruit trees.
Xiang Linger couldn't help but ask curiously when she saw them, "Sister-in-law, will these fruit trees bear fruit next year?"
"They should bear fruit the year after next. The fruit they produce next year won't be very good."
Ye Muyu also wanted to transplant mature trees, but the survival rate was low. Generally, trees younger than eight years old were suitable for transplantation. She didn't know much about transplanting fruit trees, so she could only try to find younger ones.
