Ye Muyu turned around and led her down the stairs.

Soon, she met the three people who were walking over. Xiang Ling’er finally reacted and ran over to Chu Xingjun. She hugged her neck and jumped happily. “Mother, Cousin-in-law said that the black plant in our village is the fungus. It can be eaten!”

“We’re so silly. We should try to eat it when we’re hungry. Who knew that all of you would say that it’s ugly and that it’s too dark to eat? We thought that it’s poisonous…”

It had to be said that this was a perfect misunderstanding. However, it could be seen that ordinary people were not educated and did not have much knowledge. How would they dare to eat these unknown wild vegetables casually?

Even the wild vegetables that they usually ate had been passed down for many generations. Those who had never eaten them or did not know them would not touch them easily. Otherwise, if they were poisoned, they would only die.

As for the mushrooms, he only dared to pick up one or two types. They did not know if the others were poisonous. Usually, when they saw them, they would only treat them as poisonous mushrooms.

Ye Muyu could not help but sigh. It was not necessary to study, but one must have knowledge. Otherwise, one would not know what a treasure mountain was.

“This… This is a joyous occasion. Ah Heng’s wife, thank you…” After hearing this, Chu Xingjun held Ye Muyu’s hand and was so touched that her eyes turned red.

Madam Liu advised from the side, “Elder sister, this is your good fortune. If you really want to thank Ah Heng’s wife, when you come back in the future, bring some wood ears back and let this girl have a taste. She loves to make new food. This makes her happier than giving her money.”

Ye Muyu nodded with a smile. “Mother is right. I like these foods the most. Speaking of which, eating this fungus is good for the body. It tastes good whether it’s stewed or made into a salad.”

Madam Liu knew her very well. Ye Muyu could not help but sigh. Her mother-in-law was too considerate. She also gave Chu Xingjun a chance to repay her without any pressure. She was very satisfied.

“Okay, okay, okay. When we get home, I’ll get Fusheng to send it to you.” Chu Xingjun wiped away her tears. A smile blossomed on her aged face, and even her eyes had a little more light.

Ye Muyu knew that this was a sign of hope in life.

She was also happy. The more ingredients she found, the more food she would have in the future. After all, in this day and age, many ingredients were still not available. They could not be bought even with money.

What made Ye Muyu even happier was that when there were more ingredients in the future, there would definitely be villagers growing them. By then, the income of the people would increase, and the economy would become better and better, right?

She was planning to open a shop in the future. The higher Chu Heng’s status was, the bigger her business could be. She would be able to do other things after she realized her freedom of money.

“Since we’re already here, let’s go up the mountain and see if there’s anything edible.” Madam Qian was interested the taste of the fungus.

Ye Muyu nodded.

They continued walking together.

They picked up quite a lot along the way and then went to the fruit forest.

Now that the trees in the fruit forest had just been transplanted, not only were there no fruits but there were also not many leaves.

At a glance, there were at least 50 to 60 running chickens inside. It was very lively. Did they run past the fruit trees?

“Cousin-in-law, will the fruit trees bear fruit next year?” Xiang Ling’er could not help but be curious.

“It should be fine the year after the next. The fruits next year won’t be very good.”

Ye Muyu also wanted to transplant mature trees, but the survival rate was low. Transplanting usually required the trees to be less than eight years. She did not know much about transplanting fruit trees, so she could only try to find young ones.
