The three men left, and He Hua'er finally let out a long breath.

When I stood up, I found that the basket that was crushed by myself could still be used with the handle erected, and the mushrooms flew out a lot, but they were not all crushed, and when I picked it up again, I could still make up half a basket.

He Hua'er immediately put it back into the basket and handed it to Xiangling quite righteously: "You can take it home." ”

"Okay." Xiangling thought that she would make a big bone broth at home, and she would definitely serve a bowl to the He family when the time came, so she was not polite.

The two girls were about to go home, and He Huaer was stunned to find that she was lost, but fortunately Xiangling was able to follow the clues to find the original way.

turned back, but didn't see Chu Zhang's, he should have gone home with a basket of mushrooms.

When I got home, the big frame of the house had been erected, four wooden stakes, covered with a straw shed, and a yellow clay stove below, and next to it was a large water tank, in which there were rice jars and small jars, which should have been sent by Uncle He's second uncle.

The bottom of the stove was stuffed with firewood, and the yellow mud stove was boiling with white mist, and when the lid of the pot was opened, the big bone broth inside had been boiled into milky white, and the aroma was overflowing.

Jiang Shi, who was burning the stove, saw that Xiangling was in a mess, and said with concern: "Did you fall?" Why is it so dirty? ”

Xiangling smiled: "No, I just found a pheasant, and He Hua'er and I didn't catch it for a long time." ”

Jiang scolded angrily: "You two girls, why are you like a boy? Not again! Sound no more? ”

Xiangling stuck out her tongue and replied, "I know Mother, I'll wash the mushrooms." ”

Jiang glanced at the mushrooms, which was half a basket, and said with a smile: "You two are quite good at picking, Xiangwei only picked five or six chicken feet mushrooms in the morning, which makes your milk scold." ”

Xiangling stretched out her neck and glanced in the direction of the old mansion.

In the room, Liu's appearance changed from lazy, busy like a hard-working little bee, smiling like a flower on his face, humming a song in his mouth, preparing dishes attentively, faintly wafting with the fragrance of meat, ready to welcome her daughter-in-law who was about to pass by the door.

It is estimated that she is thinking in her heart, first coaxing Miss Dalin into the door, and then she will take care of the old woman's shelf.

Xiangling was secretly funny, there was a chance that Miss Dalin would not come again.

Xiangling didn't think about the old house, scooped a scoop of water from the bucket and poured it into the basin, washing away the remaining dirt one by one.

Xiangling chanted the name He Hua'er taught her while washing, like a chicken paw is called "chicken claw mushroom", the red grass mushroom is called "red bowl mushroom", and the white one is called "big white mushroom", so this one looks like twins with big white mushroom, it won't be called "two white mushrooms", right?

Xiangling held up two mushrooms that looked almost identical and asked, "Mother, what is this mushroom called?" He Hua taught me the names of all the mushrooms, but this one didn't teach me. ”

"You kid, aren't you just a big white mushroom, and you still ask?" Jiang said disapprerovingly.

Xiangling looked at it and sniffed it again, making sure it wasn't a smell, and the color of the bottom of the umbrella was not the same.

Xiangling shook her head definitely and said, "Mother, it's really not a mushroom ........"

Jiang's face changed a little, he picked up the mushrooms, looked at them and didn't see the difference, and immediately knocked on the door of the old Wu Pozi's house.

The old Wu mother-in-law had a holiday with the Chu family, and she was quite friendly to her daughter-in-law Jiang, who was looked down upon by the Chu family.

When he opened the door and saw that it was Jiang's, he asked in surprise: "Daughter-in-law Shicai, why are you here?" ”

Jiang handed two mushrooms that looked almost the same to Mrs. Wu, and said in a trembling voice: "Auntie, you can help me take a look, these two mushrooms are white mushrooms, right?" ”

Mrs. Wu is old, and she has gone through several famine years in her life, and she has been dealing with wild vegetables and mushrooms for a long time, and her experience is much richer than that of young people.

The old Wu Pozi broke all the roots of the two mushrooms, took out a sticky mushroom and said: "This is not a white mushroom, it is a poisonous umbrella mushroom, which generally grows next to the rotten ditch, and grows in patches, and the white mushroom does not grow next to the stinky ditch, but on the clean grass." ”

Jiang Shi ran home with his legs, and said to Xiangling in a trembling voice: "Did He Hua'er also pick a lot of white mushrooms and go home?" ”

From Jiang's eyes, Xiangling knew that she might be in trouble, and hurriedly explained: "Mother, don't be afraid, He Hua'er didn't take any home, our basket was broken, and the mushrooms were given to me." ”

Jiang let out a long sigh of relief.

Xiangling asked worriedly, "Poisonous?" ”

Jiang nodded.

Xiangling patted her chest and was a little afraid, and suddenly remembered Chu Zhang's and the woman who had been angry with them, and they seemed to have picked a lot of these mushrooms.

"Oops!" Xiangling pulled her legs and ran to Chu Zhang's house.

Because at the end of summer, it was very cool outside the house during the day, Chu Zhang's family set the dining table in the courtyard, and the family of nine sat around a large square table.

Chu Zhang took out a large pot of steaming meat slices and mushroom soup from the room and prepared to put it on the table.

Xiangling couldn't care about explaining, and went up to grab the basin in Chu Zhang's hand.

Chu Zhang's end is the edge of the basin, which is not so hot.

Xiangling grabbed the wall of the basin, it was very hot, after Xiangling grabbed it, she was so scalded that she immediately took off her hand, and a basin full of soup and water, along with the thin slices of meat inside, were all detained in the yard.

Chu Zhang's face was so angry that his face turned red, he picked up a broom and chased Xiangling, and scolded: "You little slut, you actually went to the house to find bad luck!" Seeing that I don't beat you to death, let you open your mouth and talk nonsense, saying that you want to be my daughter-in-law, so scared that Brother Wen couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, and urinated on the kang, so that his cousins laughed at him! ”

Xiangling finally understood why Chu Zhang's black face was crazy to find fault in the morning, it turned out that Chu Wen was too psychologically burdened because he wanted to be his "daughter-in-law", and he urinated on the kang at night! suffered a "heavy blow to the soul" at a young age, and Chu Zhang's old lady was looking for herself to catch the evil spirit!

Xiangling explained while hiding: "Poisonous, poisonous!" ”

"You're a fart, second sister-in-law, third sister-in-law, tie her up!!"

A large pot of soup was buckled on the ground, and there was rare meat in it, and the family had already been angry, and several women went out together to catch Xiangling and clean it up.

Jiang also finally ran away, protected Xiangling behind him, panting and explaining: "It's not that Xiangling is naughty, it's me who asked Aunt Wu, the big white mushroom is mixed with poisonous umbrella mushrooms, Xiangling is afraid that you will also be poisoned, so I came to inform you." ”

The Chu family was so frightened that they didn't say anything.

"Mother, look at the flower ........" Chu Wen pointed to a black and white flower cat on the ground in fear, the flower cat was foaming at the table and lying under the table, staring at him with his eyes, very scary.

Chu Zhang's was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, feeling that all the strength in his body had been hollowed out, it turned out that the little fool had knocked over the soup because the soup was really poisonous.

It took Chu Zhang a long time to come back to his senses, and said to Chu Feng, who was in charge: "Go and tell my sister-in-law ......."

Chu Feng didn't say a word, and hurriedly ran out to inform his sister who went to pick mushrooms with Chu Zhang's in the morning.

Chu Zhang's flutter knelt on the ground, "Bang Bang" towards Xiangling, kowtowed three times, and said in a choked voice: "The grace of saving my life, I can't repay it, my family Chu Wen will be your husband in the future........"

"Mother........" Chu Wen felt that his world had completely turned black.

"A manly husband will repay his kindness, Xiangling saved your life, what can you repay others? can only marry someone else, double the kindness to Xiangling, if she beats you and scolds you, you have to endure a little, your mother can no longer help you......." Chu Zhang looked at his son, looking like you are asking for more blessings.

Although Chu Wen's face was still awkward, he didn't open his mouth to object.

My mother, who will tell me what is going on?

"No way!!" Xiangling put down the two words and ran away, feeling that the matter of "little minister" facing the "big lady" is simply not too nightmare.
