omorrow and help us dig the water channel. My father asked me to remind you."Zong Yu nodded, "Don't worry, I won't forget."Su Yusheng walked before Zong Yu, “Actually, I came here today to say goodbye...He had fallen to such a state, yet he was still treated with such respect by the Qin family. It really surprised Qin Chongyan.

Because of this, he would also do his best to teach Zong Bai well. He guaranteed that within a year, Zong Bai could master everything others learned in three years at school.

Fang Jinshi smiled and told him not to put so much pressure on himself, just do his best, and also take good care of his health.

Thus, the decision to build a new house was made. The next morning, Zong Yutian got up before dawn and went to the mountains to cut down trees and haul the lumber back.

Zong Bai and Mr. Qin took half a day off, this kind of physical work cannot be done by the eldest brother alone.

Besides growing vegetables, Yu Lian also had a lot of free time during the day. Now that there were three young maids like Xiaoyue in the house, they didn't need to do any housework anymore.

The girls were quick and efficient with their work. They would take care of all the housework, like sweeping and cleaning, every morning before they even started anything else.

Even Yu Lian, who was always busy, wanted to go up the mountain with her two brothers to chop wood.

According to her, "Although I can't chop down trees or carry logs, I can help you bundle them up. I could also gather some mountain goods on the way back."

Previously, Fang Jinshi had unintentionally discovered mushrooms in the mountains. Due to the drought and lack of water, the mushrooms in the mountains grew poorly nourished and were scarce.

However, the taste was still acceptable. She made a mushroom soup once, which was well-received and praised by all the women in the family. It is estimated that from that time on, this girl Yulian began to think about continuing to go into the mountains to find mushrooms.

However, Zong Yu was too busy digging the irrigation canal to take Jade Lotus to even deeper parts of the mountain, and he wasn't comfortable letting her run around alone. So she never got another chance to go into the mountains.

Having this rare chance to go up the mountain again, Yulian brought her little shovel and backpack, determined to go.

Mu shook her head helplessly, "You two just take her with you, or else this little girl will keep nagging at home, and I'll get a headache from listening to it."

Since mother had spoken, the two brothers naturally had nothing more to say. They also brought Zong Yu Lian along.

He asked his wife if she wanted to go hunting for a change of scenery, but he was always remembering that his wife loved fresh meat. He had been so busy digging the canal lately that he hadn't gone hunting in ages.

The fresh meat in the daughter-in-law's space had been made into all sorts of delicacies, and with so many people at home, it was being consumed quickly. The wild boar meat was already gone.

After trying other fresh and delicious meats, the previously dried snake meat became the least popular food in the house.

Fang Jinxiu shook her head and said she wouldn't go.

"I stayed home, in case the village chief had something to ask me at any time."

Zongyu, seeing the situation, had no choice but to nod and took Yulian and Zongbei into the mountain.

While chopping down trees, he kept thinking about the fresh meat from the hunting post and purposely chose a spot where prey often appeared before.

After a busy day's work, Yulian unexpectedly harvested quite a lot of mushrooms, in all colors and shapes.

Zongyu hadn't even touched a single bird, and he was starting to feel puzzled.

Míngmíng used to always bump into prey when he went out with his daughter-in-law before. He didn't want to hunt, but the prey would always come to him on their own.

Now that I'm specifically looking for their shadows, I can't find them.

The three siblings had been out for a day, and they had eaten all their dry food and drunk all their water. If they didn't go back home soon, their family would definitely worry.

As the sky was getting dark and he couldn't find any prey, Zongyu had no choice but to call his younger siblings back.

"Master Zong, Jade Lotus, let's pack up and head back."

Zong Bai still felt strange, he walked to Zong Yu's side, "Big brother, didn't you say you were going to hunt some meat to bring back when we came"

Zong Yu shook his head. "I've looked around here, there are no signs of animals. If we go deeper, we might not be able to get back before dark."

"Forget it, I'll come back tomorrow to chop trees anyway. Let's just take our time and find it."

Zong Bai nodded, looped the hemp rope tied to the lumber diagonally across his chest, and prepared to pull it home.

On the road, I saw Jade Lotus carrying a basket full of mushrooms. Seeing their colors, he couldn't help but be suspicious.

"Yu Lian, what have you picked up Red and green things like that, can these really be eaten"

Zong Yulian patted her chest and said, "Of course I can eat it!"

"This is the way my sister-in-law taught me to find mushrooms. Red umbrella, white pole, eat them together and lie flat on a board!"

Zong Bai frowned, "What does this mean"

Yulian gave him a look of disdain and said proudly, “You don’t know that When you look for mushrooms, you have to find the ones with red caps and white stems. Those are the most delicious, and they make you feel so comfortable even after eating them and going to sleep!”side that I've never seen before."Maybe we could talk business with the general store too.Fang Jinshi smiled, just about to say yes.The next second, I suddenly remembered something and my face changed...
