Fat Niang makes a fortune in farming

Chapter 83
Vegetables grew in the vegetable garden one after another, but the Dong family was reluctant to eat them, and kept all of them, hoping to pick them up and sell them in the market when the price was good.

The most important thing for the Dong family now is to save money as soon as possible, and then pay off all the debts owed to Wang Maocai.

Yesterday, Mrs. Huang went to the town to buy a lot of needlework. Her needlework was not bad. She wanted to embroider a few beautiful and exquisite purses, and sell them in the town to make more money.

And Meng Kejun went up the mountain with Dong Qingfeng every morning. One hunted wild game and the other picked wild vegetables. There were almost enough wild vegetables at home, enough to eat for a long time. Now Meng Kejun went up the mountain to find relatively more expensive ones. Bacteria.

Every time I picked up the fungi, Mr. Meng Ke would wash them all after taking them home, then dry them and store them, and when they had accumulated a certain amount, they would sell them in the town.

The sky in June is like a child's face, it changes as it says, the sun was still big when we went up the mountain in the morning, but now it is suddenly covered with dark clouds, and there are lightning and thunder in the distance.

Meng Kejun looked up at the sky, and then at the chicken fir fungus under her feet, which she found with great difficulty.

Because of the thick and plump meat, the silky white texture, the taste is sweet and crisp, and it also tastes like a chicken fragrance. It is a very precious fungus. If you pick it up and sell it in the town, the price will not be cheap. , She has gone up the mountain so many times, but this is the first time she has seen it.

There is also a knack for picking the collybia spp., and the timing must be seized.The umbrella on the top of the chicken fir mushroom is the most tender and plump when it is not opened. If the umbrella is opened, the meat will be old and the umami will be greatly reduced.

So now let alone the rain, even with a knife, Meng Kejun has to hurry up and pick all the chicken fir mushrooms under his feet.

Meng Kejun quickly squatted down, speeding up the movements of her hands, trying to pick all the colostrum mushrooms into the basket, but no matter how fast her movements were, they could not fall as quickly as the raindrops from the sky.

Before picking half, the bean-sized raindrops fell overwhelmingly. Because the raindrops were big and dense, it still hurt a lot when it hit the body.

Meng Kejun, who was originally squatting, immediately bent down and stood up, using his body to block the rain, for fear of smashing the chicken fir fungus on the ground. The chicken fir fungus is also very delicate. It's better to be bad, and it can't be bad anymore, otherwise there will be nothing.

"You are not going to hide from the rain, what are you doing here?"

Behind Meng Kejun, a deep and deep voice suddenly sounded. Immediately afterwards, Meng Kejun felt that the rain above him seemed to have stopped.

She raised her head and saw that it was Dong Qingfeng holding a huge plantain leaf, standing behind her to protect herself from the rain.

"The price of this chicken fir mushroom is high, if you don't pick it now, it will go bad!"

Meng Kejun didn't bother to touch the rainwater on his face, and immediately lowered his head to pick it up after speaking.

Meng Kejun, who picked fungi under Dong Qingfeng's body, never rained on her again. Meng Kejun's heart suddenly warmed up. What she had always dreamed of was to find such a responsible man who could protect her from the wind and rain.

Now, Dong Qingfeng was standing in front of her, but she was still one step too late.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the thunder was getting louder.

Suddenly, a long bolt of lightning flashed across the sky.

"Snap--"

Immediately after a loud noise, not far in front of Dong Qingfeng and Meng Kejun, a tall spruce fir was forcibly split in two, and the place where it was split was still emitting green smoke.

Not caring about talking, Dong Qingfeng grabbed Meng Kejun's arm and ran straight away.

Meng Kejun was also frightened stupid. If the lightning bolt had been closer to thirty or fifty meters, it might have struck her.

She was so frightened that her mind went blank, she couldn't think of anything, and could only let Dong Qingfeng drag her to run in the rain.

So much so that she didn't know how she got into this cave in the end.

"Ah—————" Meng Kejun's mind was not fully awake until he sneezed for a long time.

Standing in the hole, she looked around.

This cave is not big, the wall of the cave is covered with moss and vines, and the ground is full of messy stones and hay, but Meng Kejun noticed that in the corner of the cave, there are many piles of dead wood, and there is a burnt wood on the dead wood. A charred hanging pot, and a pair of plant ashes by my feet.

"This cave is a place for hunters to rest their feet in winter. It is cold in winter and game is difficult to hunt. Hunters usually stay on the mountain for a whole day. This hanging pot is used to boil hot water and heat food."

It is said that the cave is warm in winter and cool in summer, which is absolutely true. Mr. Meng Ke, who was already drenched, was shivering from the cold, and even his teeth were shaking.

Seeing that Meng Kejun was extremely cold, Dong Qingfeng immediately hugged the dead wood in the corner, and quickly lit a fire.

"Ah———"

"Ah———"

"Ah———"

As soon as Dong Qingfeng lit the fire, Meng Kejun sneezed three times in a row, as if his nose was blocked.

No, she can't be sick at this time.

"Take off your wet clothes as soon as possible, you will definitely catch the cold if you dress like this!"

Dong Qingfeng took off his wet clothes while talking.

"Ah-?" Dong Qingfeng's words stunned Meng Kejun.

"Here... take off your clothes?" Meng Kejun's eyes widened, and he looked at Dong Qingfeng who was stripped to his pants in front of him in disbelief.

His bronze-coloured firm chest muscles were fully exposed. Even though Meng Kejun didn't suffer from heatstroke, he still felt his mouth was parched and his heart was beating faster.

She quickly turned her face away, not wanting Dong Qingfeng to see her hot cheeks.

"Don't worry, except for the hunters in winter, no one will come to this cave on weekdays!"

The location of this cave is hidden, and other than the few hunters who know about it, no one else can find it, not to mention that it is the busy season of farming, and the rest of the hunters have fields and land at home, so there is no time to go up the mountain in this season.

While talking, Dong Qingfeng put his wet clothes on the dead wood frame he had tied, and then stood beside the campfire, thus forming a simple screen.

"You are over there, wait for the clothes to dry for you, and then you can put them on!"

"Don't worry, I will never peek!"

As he said that, Dong Qingfeng also took the initiative to turn his body around, with his back facing the dead wooden frame on which his wet clothes were placed.

But even so, Meng Kejun still felt that there was something wrong. There were only her and Dong Qingfeng in this cave. The lonely man and widow plus dry wood and raging fire might not know what would happen next.

"I'm still—ah—ch—"

Forget it, before he could say it, Meng Kejun sneezed again, followed by a shiver.

I can't do it anymore, I really can't hold it anymore, if I persist like this, I will definitely catch a cold.
