After carefully explaining the recipe of these two dishes to Chen, Xia Mei returned to her small courtyard in a happy mood and saw that Tang Bao was driving the two hens to the chicken coop to close them. Xia Mei walked over in two steps and picked up Tang Bao at once.

"Yikes! Mother, what's wrong with you? Tang Bao tilted his head to look at his mother with big round eyes.

Xia Mei was suddenly cute by Tang Bao's small appearance! "I don't know what the original owner thinks, such a lovely son is cheap to me!" Xia Mei stared at Tang Bao and thought with a smile.

"It's nothing, my mother just wants to hug my lovely Tang Bao, can't you?"

Tang Bao lowered his head and said with a red face: "No, Tang Bao also likes to hug his mother......"

Looking at her son's shy little appearance, Xia Mei finally couldn't help it: "Poof...... Hahahaha......"

********

Early the next morning, Xia Mei got up when she was still in the middle of the day, baked some corn tortillas, put four or five pieces on the table, and found herself a bag with two pieces.

Xia Mei returned to the bedroom, saw that Tang Bao was still asleep, smiled slightly, and gently shook Tang Bao's arm: "Tang Bao...... Tang Bao ......", Tang Bao rubbed his eyes and asked in a daze, "What's wrong...... Mother's ......", Xia Mei couldn't bear it, and said softly: "Tang Bao, my mother is going to the mountains, do you want to be well-behaved at home?" …… My mother made you corn tortillas and put them on the table, and when you were hungry, you would eat them, and my mother would come back soon, you know? ”

Seeing that Tang Bao heard it clearly, and fell asleep in a daze in a blink of an eye, Xia Mei was a little uneasy, but she still gritted her teeth, picked up the back basket and went out.

Xia Mei did have the idea of selling this fungus and mushrooms.

These two kinds of food, regardless of meat and vegetarian, are the best side dishes. It can be served with both food and wine, and there is definitely a market. And basically, regardless of the cost, it is naturally grown in this big mountain.

Of course, Xia Mei also understands that even if she sells, it can't last long, as long as she sells it, someone will inevitably follow suit, so how to sell it and who to sell it to must be considered in the long run.

Xia Mei estimated that this is the season for the growth of fungus, and if she rushes to buy it now, I am afraid that she will not be able to sell it for the second time.

But if you dry it and store it until the season is over, then it's a different story......

And mushrooms are different, this mushroom is risky, if someone mistakenly picks and eats poisonous, it is a sin, and this mushroom is dried and then soaked, the taste is greatly reduced, and it is not worth it.

In addition, there must be an entry at home now, so after thinking about it again, Xia Mei decided to throw "mushrooms" and introduce "fungus......

Not to mention that Xia Mei is determined to collect fungus, so she picks fungus in the mountains every morning for a few hours, and comes back in the afternoon to pick it up and dry it in the yard. But he said that the Chen family, since eating fungus and mushrooms that day, also occasionally went back to the forest to pick some back, and happened to catch a glimpse of the black things in the courtyard of the Xia family, and he also had a plan in his heart......

Three days later, Xia Mei got up early in the morning, changed into clean clothes for herself and Tang Bao, hastily ate some brown rice porridge, brought the corn tortillas baked last night, carefully put half a pocket of mushrooms picked yesterday into the back basket, and pulled Tang Bao to the village.

Because this mountain village is backed by mountains and has little fertile land, it is a little poor, so not many people settle here. There are only twenty or thirty families in the whole village, and there are only about 100 people, including adults and children.

Even if Xia Mei took Tang Bao with her, she only walked for a quarter of an hour to reach the head of the village, and the ox cart that was rushing to the market was waiting under the tree, and there were already a few people sitting in the car.

Since it is quite far from the town, the people in the village agreed to have ox carts to go to the town every "two", "five" and "eighth", such as the second, fifth, and eighth days of the first month, and the twelfth, fifteenth, eighteenth, and so on.

"Yo, Tang Bao, you're here too!" Sitting on the bullock cart, a woman about Xia Mei's age greeted her.

"Well, it, you go to town too." Xia Mei also responded with a smile.

When the woman saw Xia Mei with Tang Bao, she was secretly surprised, and saw that the mother and son were quite close, and she knew it in her heart.

"Come on, Tang Bao, sit on my aunt's side." After that, he hugged Tang Bao into his arms, and his face was very happy.

This woman was originally a neighbor of the original owner Xia Mei, whose girlfriend name was Li Xue, and the two had a deep relationship. It wasn't until they got married one after another that Xia Mei's personality changed dramatically, and the relationship became estranged.

Now seeing that Xia Mei seems to have seen it, Li Xue is also extremely happy in her heart, after all, the two have been friends for so many years. She is also reluctant to this friendship.

At that moment, he took Xia Mei's hand affectionately, and happily talked about some topics between women, which were nothing more than the topics of rouge gouache and clothes and headdresses.

Since determinism wants to change the image of "Xia Mei" in the eyes of everyone in the past, it is necessary to cheer up and deal with it at this moment. Fortunately, Xia Mei also loved shopping in her previous life, so she barely showed her flaws......

Along the way, the two women ignored others and chatted selflessly, while Tang Bao slept in Li Xue's arms. An hour later, the ox cart stopped a hundred meters from the town, and everyone dispersed when they had agreed to return.

When she arrived in the town, Li Xue asked, "Tang Bao, mother, I'm going to go to the cloth village to pull some cloth and go back to make some summer clothes, will you go?" ”

Xia Mei is here to sell mushrooms, but you can't let people know, but fortunately, everyone is carrying a basket, and no one cares what you have in it.

"No, I'm just taking Tang Bao around, you go and get busy, we'll see you later", after speaking, he hurriedly left with Tang Bao in his arms, although Li Xue felt a little strange, but he didn't think much about it, and also walked towards Bu Zhuangzi.

Seeing that she was already submerged in the crowd, Xia Mei breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to look at this ancient market.

The first impression is that the street is lively, the street is full of pedestrians, poor or rich, sad or happy, walking or stopping, the street is lined with hawkers, jagged and endless, and the authentic shops are all hung with antique plaques, and the guys in the red shops greet and see off batches of customers with smiles, saying that their throats are dry; The deserted one stood outside and greeted: "Eh, this big brother, come in and see our new ready-to-wear, exquisite and affordable......" "This young lady, we just arrived in the store with good rouge, come in and take a look......"

Xia Mei's heart was greatly shocked.

At this moment, Xia Mei finally realized that she had arrived in a completely different world......

In this strange prosperity, there is a trace of warmth, a sense of belonging, and a touch of emotion......

"Mother! Mother, what's wrong with you? ”

Tang Bao writhed in his arms, and Xia Mei instantly came back to her senses, it turned out that she was actually distracted on the street. Looking at the worry on the little face in her arms, Xia Mei smiled with relief in her heart.

"It's nothing, let's go, my mother will take you for a good walk!"

Tang Bao saw that his mother was fine, so he couldn't wait to say: "Mother, let me down, I want to go by myself!" ”

"Yo, what's the matter, my mother is still shy to hold you?" Xia Mei laughed.

Tang Bao blushed and didn't speak, just twisted his body, wanting to get out of Xia Mei's arms. Xia Mei put him down with a smile, "Okay, then you can go by yourself, my mother will hold you."

Then, the mother and son walked forward holding hands and walking forward......

PS: It's not well written, but I'll stick to it.
