Fast-paced era: a warm and leisurely life

Chapter 125 The Dumb Lady of the Landlord's Family

After working for three days straight, the educated youths were suffering from back pain and leg cramps.

Even the male educated youth couldn't handle it.

I feel like I'm dying if I don't take a break...

So everyone asked Captain He for leave.

Captain He approved the leave with a look of disdain on his face: "You are really spoiled. In our team, even 7-year-old kids can go to the fields to work. Tsk..."

The educated youths took a half-day break, and in the afternoon they tilled the vegetable fields and sowed the seeds.

"Hey! Anyway, there's nothing to do now, why not go up the mountain and pick some wild vegetables and mushrooms!!"

Wang Ming's words were approved by everyone.

They all carried their baskets and headed up the mountain, even Han Hongwen and Ding Gaoyang went with them.

Ding Gaoyang has a strong curiosity about new things. He is also planning to go to the mountains to show off his skills and hunt pheasants, rabbits, etc.

Halfway through the walk, Lu Xiao asked, "Does anyone here know about wild vegetables, mushrooms, and the like???"

Everyone shook their heads

"What should I do?"

Meng Pinghui: "What's so difficult about this? When the time comes, just ask the people in the brigade and you'll know."

Lu Xiao: "It's easy for you to say that. Everyone is at work right now. Who should we ask?"

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Zeng Jia hurriedly tried to smooth things over: "I saw a person carrying a backpack and heading towards the mountain. Why don't we chase her and ask her?"

Meng Pinghui snorted proudly, carrying the basket and walking quickly to the front.

Zeng Jia sighed: "Why are you angry with someone of her temperament......"

"If we keep tolerating her, she will become arrogant. I don't want the Youth Institute to become her one-man show in the future!!!"

"That's true. I didn't expect that such a small youth home could have so many problems."

He walked forward quickly and soon caught up with the figure in front of him. It was Gu Nuanyi who had completed the task early.

Zeng Jia said with a smile: "Comrade, we also want to pick some wild vegetables and mushrooms to take back. Can you please teach us!!!"

Jia Peng also said: "Yes, yes, yes, could you please teach us!!"

Gu Nuanyi took a quick look around, picked up two or three kinds of wild vegetables and two or three kinds of mushrooms and threw them to Zeng Jia: "Compare them and find them. Don't just pick and eat mushrooms you don't recognize! There are still poisonous mushrooms on this mountain!"

Zeng Jia held it in her arms as if it were a treasure: "Thank you, comrade! Thank you so much!!"

Meng Pinghui sneered, thinking that Gu Nuanyi's behavior was just charity to them, and immediately asked bluntly: "You said there are poisonous mushrooms on this mountain, why don't you teach us? What if we eat poisonous mushrooms, can you bear the responsibility?"

Gu Nuanyi didn't indulge Meng Pinghui at all: "Then you can just not eat any mushrooms, and there won't be any problems. Who do you think you are? Should everyone surround you and praise you?"

Jia Peng quickly stepped forward and said, "I'm sorry, this educated young lady Meng is not very smart!!"

"Who's out of his mind??? Um..." Before Meng Pinghui could finish her words, Lu Xiao covered her mouth and dragged her to the side.

Lu Xiao lowered his voice and warned, "People are kind enough to teach us, but you have to show off your presence, right? Although we are all unrelated, in the eyes of others, the Youth Home is just a small collective. If you cause trouble again, don't blame us for asking the commune leaders to transfer you away. Also, if you don't want to pick mushrooms, then don't pick them. Similarly, you don't have to eat the fried mushrooms!!!"

After spending the past few days together, Meng Pinghui also knew that this person was a man of his words.

He immediately shut his mouth.

There is a brainless person in the team, and the others don't have the nerve to invite Gu Nuanyi to join them.

With the template, they only need to look for it according to the template. If it doesn't look like the template, they won't pick it.

What if they pick a poisonous one and they don’t know it…

Meng Pinghui didn't want to move, but thinking about the behavior of that group of people, if she didn't pick them, she would definitely not be able to eat them...

At the foot of the mountain, there are often people from the group coming to pick wild vegetables. The edible ones have been picked almost all the time, and the rest are almost all in every nook and cranny.

Nine people gathered together and naturally couldn't find much, so they discussed it.

Everyone was given some wild vegetables and mushrooms as templates and spread out to look for

Han Hongwen and Ding Gaoyang were particularly patient in checking whether the mushrooms they found were the same as the ones they had in their hands.

If it doesn't look like the mushroom in my hand, I will just throw it away.

Meng Pinghui also picked the fruits by comparing them with the ones in her hand at first, but later she found it troublesome and just threw them into the basket when she saw that they were almost the same.

Soon he had a full basket and sat on a rock watching others pick up

Everyone gained a lot, and everyone had a satisfied smile on their face.

After returning to the Youth League, we started to clean the wild vegetables and mushrooms we had picked.

Li Shiyun looked at the mushrooms on the ground and felt more and more strange: "Who picked these mushrooms?"

Meng Pinghui said proudly: "The ones I picked are bigger and better than the ones you picked. Aren't you envious?!"

Li Shiyun picked up all the different mushrooms and said, "What are you picking up? Didn't we tell you to pick them according to the template? What if these are poisonous?"

"How could they be poisonous? I didn't pick up the brightly colored ones. Besides, aren't these all pretty much the same? Is there any difference in appearance?"

Li Shiyun threw the separated mushrooms aside and said, "Then you can fry these for yourself!"

"Eat it yourself!" Meng Pinghui squatted on the ground and cleaned up all the mushrooms she had picked up.

As soon as one of the mushrooms was cut, the cut surface changed color instantly.

He was so scared that he threw the mushroom aside.

I picked up another one and cut it, but when I found that the color didn't change, I continued cutting.

Just cut it like this and throw away the ones that change color, and put the ones that don't change color on the plate

After cutting, I poured some oil and started frying.

Simply stir-fry twice, and when the mushrooms are soft, serve them directly

Meng Pinghui shouted outside: "I'm done, come on!"

Shi Jiyu, who was in charge of cooking, did not wash the knife or the pot. He just used the knife to cut the vegetables and fried the wild vegetables and mushrooms in the pot.

Meng Pinghui pointed to a plate of mushrooms and said, "I fried this. Do you want to try it?"

Wang Ming asked in confusion: "Two people were frying the mushrooms?"

Li Shiyun rolled her eyes and said, "What? Many of the mushrooms she picked up were different from ours. I asked her to throw them away but she didn't listen. Now, she fired them all."

Wang Ming had already picked up a piece of mushroom with his chopsticks, but when he heard this, he threw the mushroom back with his chopsticks: "I don't know if it's poisonous or not, who would dare to eat it!"

"You don't know what's good. If you don't want to eat it, I'll eat it myself!" Meng Pinghui ate the whole plate of fried mushrooms in anger.

After dinner, everyone went back to the house to rest.

Not long after, Shi Jiyu ran straight to the toilet, holding his stomach.

Soon Wang Ming also rushed out, holding his stomach.

Meng Pinghui, Li Shiyun, Lu Xiao, Zeng Jia, and Jia Peng all failed to escape.

One after another ran out of the room

Zeng Jia banged on the toilet door: "My stomach hurts, I need to go to the toilet! Can you please hurry up?"

Meng Pinghui couldn't hold it back and pulled his trouser pockets directly

The others pinched their noses and looked at Meng Pinghui with disgust.
