| Chapter 42 Picking wild mushrooms. | |
| Zhong Yuying glanced at Tian Sisi hatefully. Unexpectedly, after Tian Zhaodi fell ill, her brain seemed to be open. She was no longer the silly and easy-to-coax Tian Zhaodi before. No, she must find a way to regain control of Tian Sisi. Without Tian Sisi as a friend, her father would never let her study again. She was not willing to be like the elder sisters, facing the loess and back to the sky all day long, and hanging out with those dirty men. | |
| She must continue to study. Only by studying will she have the opportunity to leave this small mountain village and marry a good man. She must not stay in this small mountain village as an illiterate peasant woman, nor marry a rude and dirty rural man like most girls in the village. | |
| "Sisi, you have too many misunderstandings about me. I will come to see you next time, so I'll leave first." Zhong Yuying reluctantly found a step for herself, turned around and left in a hurry. Now Zhong Yuying is not as shameless and mean as when she was a mistress in her previous life, so after Tian Sisi and Donghua Jianguo said a few words, she couldn't hold back her face. | |
| Tian Sisi was too lazy to pay attention to Zhong Yuying. She was not the original owner in her previous life, and her status was much higher than Zhong Yuying's, so she didn't need to take Zhong Yuying too seriously. She closed the courtyard door and walked up the mountain with a bunch of small carrot heads. | |
| As soon as the Jingzhe comes, everything revives. The trees on the mountain all sprouted green buds, and the wild vegetables on the ground also showed their heads. Tian Sisi was surprised to find that a wild peach tree actually took out light red flower buds, and some of them were still half-open, like a shy little girl. It would be great if there was a camera to capture the beautiful scenery at this moment! | |
| Tian Sisi's desire to make money is getting stronger and stronger. If it doesn't work, she will go to Brother Xinhua tonight and discuss winemaking with him first. After the spring plowing is over, they can start. | |
| "Sister Sisi, you can pick shepherd's purse now! There are also malan heads, and there are a lot of fungi. Let's pick more and let grandma dry it in the sun. We can save it for the New Year." Jianguo was like a little adult, even the New Year's food was arranged. | |
| Tian Sisi came back to her senses and found that several little ones were starting to pick wild vegetables. Only she, the oldest one, was still standing still. She couldn't help but blush, and hurriedly knelt down to pick wild vegetables with Jianguo and the others. It was still early spring, and the heads of shepherd's purse and malan had just come out, so they only picked half of the basket and left it. It would be better to wait until they grow up before picking them. | |
| Wild mushrooms are quite big, white, brown, and brown, and they are like small umbrellas. Regarding wild mushrooms, Tian Sisi only knows that brightly colored mushrooms are poisonous mushrooms, so she picks some mushrooms that are light in color and fat. When she sees Xiao Baoguo sometimes picking beautiful mushrooms and putting them in the basket, she will pick them out and throw them away. | |
| Tian Sisi took advantage of a few little ones to pick wild vegetables and took the opportunity to put a dozen eggs in a nearby bush, deliberately leading Jianguo to go there. Sure enough, after a while, Jianguo's cry of joy was heard. He excitedly loaded the dozen eggs in a basket with surprise on his little face. | |
| "Jianguo is so awesome. He actually found so many wild eggs and asked my wife to scramble the eggs with mushrooms to eat at night." Tian Sisi praised them without hesitation. She also did this on purpose. The little guy Jianguo always thought that the three brothers lived and ate here for free. They didn't dare to pick up more vegetables when eating. They stayed busy at other times and were as busy as a spinning top. If he picked up the eggs now, maybe he would feel that he had contributed to the family. | |
| The others were also very happy, and one by one they came up with ideas on how to eat these eggs. Jianguo hugged the bamboo basket tightly, feeling very excited. He could also earn food for his grandfather's family. In the future, he would come to the mountain often to see if he could pick more wild eggs, so that he and his brothers would not eat for free. | |
| Tian Sisi saw that the two baskets were almost full, so she called the little ones home. Now she is the king of children, because she gives them delicious food every day. The few little ones especially listen to Tian Sisi's words, so although they still want to play on the mountain, they still follow Tian Sisi down the mountain obediently. | |
| On the way back, I met Zhong Yuying and some other strange girls, all in their teens, including Zhong Meiying, but she was walking far behind and was not very close to the people in front. Zhong Yuying was joking with the girls next to her. When she saw Tian Sisi coming down the mountain, her face froze and she wanted to say hello, but she was afraid that Tian Sisi would prevent her from getting off the stage. Now Zhongjiawan didn't know that Tian Sisi had fallen out with her. | |
| "Yuying, isn't that Tian Zhaodi? Why don't you say hello to her?" The person who spoke was Zhong Anmei, Zhong Yubai's youngest daughter. She is 13 years old. She usually dislikes Zhong Yuying's coquettishness, so she deliberately shouted loudly at this moment. | |
| "Anmei, you called me wrong. Tian Zhaodi's name is Tian Sisi now. Didn't Mei Ying go to the house to talk to her last time?" Another girl smiled and reminded Zhong Anmei that she was Zhong Lanying who had built a snowman with Tian Sisi some time ago. These girls were all girls from Zhongjiawan. Zhong Lianying and Zhong Juying were also there. They made an appointment to come to the mountain to pick mushrooms. | |
| Zhong Anmei snorted, patted her head, and smiled sheepishly at Tian Sisi. She was a very bright girl, with a slender figure and very bright eyes, as if they were burning with fire. Tian Sisi was very fond of this girl at a glance. She felt that someone with such eyes would definitely not be the kind of girl with a rich family. | |
| Zhong Yuying smiled awkwardly, hating her to death. This Zhong Anmei was really nosy, so Tian Sisi pretended not to see Zhong Yuying and walked straight up to Zhong Anmei and smiled at her. She also said hello to Zhong Lanying and others, pointed to the direction she came down from just now and said, "There are a lot of fungi there, you can go and have a look." | |
| Zhong Anmei and the others were a little flattered. Tian Sisi had never greeted people with bad backgrounds like them before, but she was so kind today? The sun really came out in the west, and wasn't she and Zhong Yuying good friends? Why did Tian Sisi ignore Zhong Yuying? | |
| Zhong Lanying and the others were not too surprised because they had made a snowman together a few days ago. They also said thank you to Tian Sisi. Tian Sisi smiled and said nothing. When she saw the ragged Zhong Juying, her heart hurt. Although she knew that this Zhong Juying was not her biological mother in the previous life, she couldn't help but want to pay attention to this Zhong Juying. | |
| Maybe my mother in her previous life was also in such pain when she was young, right? Tian Sisi made up her mind to help Zhong Juying, for no other reason than that she had the same name as her mother and had the same experience. Helping her was just a piece of cake for her, but Zhong Juying didn't have to live so hard. | |
| Tian Sisi also said hello to Zhong Meiying and thanked her for promoting her new name. Zhong Meiying smiled sheepishly. She got two such beautiful hair flowers, but she was just helping out with running errands and did not deserve to be thanked. Tian Sisi liked Zhong Meiying's simplicity and invited her to visit her home when she was free. | |
| Zhong Meiying nodded excitedly. Because of the old man's relationship, the Tian family was the holy land of Yuequan Village, and ordinary people could not enter the Tian family's threshold. In the eyes of ordinary villagers like them, the Tian family standing at the foot of Yuequan Mountain was high and they were from two different worlds. Therefore, being able to go to the Tian family as a guest was considered a great honor. Even when talking in the village, it could be used to add luster to one's face. | |
| Zhong Yuying looked at Zhong Meiying bitterly. She knew that Tian Sisi would not break off the relationship with her for no reason. It turned out that it was Zhong Meiying, a cheap girl, who worshiped her. It seemed that her father was right. People really can't be judged by their appearance. Zhong Meiying was just like her father Zhong Shancai. She has a simple face and a cunning heart. Otherwise, why would her family have become middle peasants, while Zhong Meiying's family has been poor peasants? Although there is a word difference, her and Zhong Meiying's status are completely different. If she hadn't been sweet-talking and good at conduct, she would have been disliked by everyone like Zhong Juying. | |
| "Zhong Yuying, Tian Sisi doesn't want to see you anymore, or why should he ignore you?" Zhong Anmei laughed at Zhong Yuying. | |
| Zhong Yuying pretended not to hear. She walked to the front first and knelt down to pick the mushrooms. Zhong Anmei snorted and walked to the other side to pick the mushrooms. My mother-in-law liked fresh mushrooms the most, so she wanted to pick more to give her mother-in-law some nutrition. | |
| Everyone else also thought about it. Just now, Tian Sisi said hello to everyone present, even Zhong Anmei and the others who were rich peasants, but they didn't even look at Zhong Yuying. Everyone exchanged looks. It seemed that Anmei was right. Tian Sisi no longer wants to see Zhong Yuying, and everyone is gloating. This Zhong Yuying relies on her friendship with the little princess Tian Sisi, and usually interacts with them with a bit of arrogance. Hum, now that Tian Sisi is no longer looking after her, what else can Zhong Yuying do for you? | |
| ps: Thanks again to the two cute little mushrooms of I Love Myself xx and Fat Girl 0915! Thank you. Laoyang is really too busy during this period and can only barely update twice a day. I'm sorry, dear friends! |
