"I will definitely pack myself up before going out." Mingxiu immediately raised her hand to make a promise.

Even if Ming's mother didn't want to, she had always been gentle, so there was nothing she could do if Mingxiu insisted.

"Xiu'er is not in good health and still insists on going up the mountain with you. You should keep an eye on her."

Ming's father is naturally unstoppable.

Xie Zhan was also wet and miserable, but this did not hide his appearance at all. "Do you want me to go up the mountain with you?"

"You should stay at home."

No matter how poor the Ming family was, Mingxiu still had a change of clothes. If she put them in a corner, they wouldn't get caught in the rain. There were just some water stains in the corners. Now, in this situation, Mingxiu couldn't help but pick and choose and put the stolen goods on them a little.

Just wipe it clean and put it on again.

Wearing dry clothes, Mingxiu felt much more comfortable, so she followed Ming's father into the mountains with a backpack on her back.

"Why don't many people go out in the village today?"

When Mingxiu went out and went up the mountain, he didn't see many villagers, so he couldn't help but be surprised.

At this time in the past, everyone should be out talking in the streets, but now why...

"It rained so heavily last night. There must be many roof leaks in the village. They are being repaired now. Where can anyone have time to go up the mountain?"

Although the folks in Tubao Village are living a good life, they only have enough food and clothing. There are still only a few people who can live in brick houses. Currently, there are only two people in the village, the village chief and Li Guangshan.

It's just home.

The thatched hut is not a great place to live in on weekdays, but it cannot withstand heavy rains.

not to mention……

Although the fruit Mingxiu gave Niu Ergou was not poisonous, there were still many unknowns in the mountains. Originally, people in the village did not go into the mountains, but now only some women dig wild vegetables at the foot of the mountains.

At this time, the mountain road was wet and full of mud. Unless there was no other way, Ming's father would not be willing to go up the mountain at this time.

Mingxiu nodded clearly, having a better understanding of the economic situation of Tubao Village.

"Don't touch those fungi!"

When they arrived at the mountain, Ming's father suddenly became extremely ugly when he saw Mingxiu looking for fungi in the grass and dead trees.

Those fungi are poisonous!

During the disaster years, there were also people who wanted to pick up mushrooms on the mountains to eat, but without exception, those people were all poisoned to death. Even if they did not die suddenly on the spot, they still fell seriously ill.

In a family like theirs, being sick is no different from being dead. It is even worse than being dead. A serious illness will drag down the family and make it worse for a family that is not already wealthy.

Now that Mingxiu wanted to touch those fungi, Ming's father was so anxious that he pulled her away as if she had encountered something dirty.

"Dad, these are all edible. Once you've finished them, you can sell them in the town for money!"

Doesn't anyone eat mushrooms in this place?

Originally, Mingxiu planned to make a little money from this, but it would be troublesome if the people really knew nothing about it.

If she was powerful, it would not be difficult to make a lot of money from it, but now...who would believe her words?

Ming's father didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Dad has also heard that there are specialized mushroom farmers who collect these mushrooms, dry them and sell them, but we don't know where these things are poisonous and where they are not. It would be troublesome if we get poisonous things and sell them."

Already?"

He didn't have any suspicion, he just thought Mingxiu had listened to others and thought the fungi could be sold for money, so he wanted to pick some and sell them.

"These are not poisonous, dad, don't worry." Mingxiu was helpless. She didn't know how to tell Ming's father that she understood these things, so she could only persist.

But Ming's father refused, and the father and daughter were in a stalemate.

Mingxiu had always had a bad temper, and if Ming's father didn't obey her, he would hold his neck and refuse to leave.

In the end, Ming's father had no choice but to compromise and sighed: "Since you want it, then take it back, but you are not allowed to eat it." If their daughter eats bad food, their family will not have money to treat her.

Mingxiu is the only child he and his mother have.

"I won't eat randomly, dad, don't worry."

Mingxiu cleverly played a word game with Ming's father, but Ming's father thought she agreed.

Since his daughter woke up, she has become much more sensible, and Ming's father felt relieved and allowed her to play by herself.

"How do you know these?"

Xie Zhan looked at the fungi brought back by the heroine and couldn't help but wonder. These things are very popular in upper-class families, but ordinary people would not know them if they hadn't been in this industry for generations. All the things Mingxiu picked up were edible.

Yes, if it is just a coincidence, it would be a bit too coincidental.

"Of course you can if you want to know each other." Mingxiu knew that her origin could not be explained, so she could only vaguely explain it.

Xie Zhan didn't know what he was thinking of. He gave her a meaningful look and didn't ask any more questions, "Everyone has secrets. You'd better hide your tail."

People in the country bag village all know that Mingxiu is a fool, but he seems otherwise. If he is really confused so far, it should be because of his child's nature. Mingxiu's abilities are obviously not what a fool who has just become good can have, so her

Identity is a puzzle.

He also has secrets, so as long as Mingxiu doesn't do anything harmful to him, Xie Zhan won't get involved.

Hearing this, Mingxiu looked back at him, "Then what is your secret?"

Judging from his accent and general demeanor, this person couldn't possibly be just a beggar, but why did he pretend to be a beggar and follow her home? He had stayed in Ming's house for so long and had no intention of leaving.

"You don't need to know that much." Xie Zhan's face turned cold instantly, "I won't do anything that will harm you, and no one will endanger the safety of your family. Don't worry."

"That's it, thank you very much."

Mingxiu raised her eyebrows, all she wanted was Xie Zhan's guarantee.

After the man in black appeared the day before yesterday, she had some suspicions about Xie Zhan's identity. Although she had never been exposed to the life of a wealthy family, she had never eaten pork and had seen pigs running away. From Xie Zhan's performance

From various appearances, he may be a son of a noble family who had no choice but to flee.

Although such a person would be dangerous at home, Mingxiu felt that his usefulness outweighed the danger.

The two had a subtle tacit understanding without the Ming parents knowing.

"Do you think these things can be sold at a high price?"

"I'm afraid it would be difficult to ask for a high price." Xie Zhan checked the fungi as he said. Although he had never done business, his eyesight was not ordinary. "But if you just want to support your family, it should be okay."

If these things want a high price, they will naturally have to be sold to wealthy families as gifts. Obviously, these slightly damaged fungi are not in such good condition.

According to Xie Zhan, these are just enough to be sent to restaurants and inns for sale.
