Chapter 307: Someone Always Comes to Eat

Hu Ailan, Fang Jinxiu wasn't surprised at all. Fang Jinxiu had been paying close attention to her expressions. It seemed that in the face of such questions, Hu Ailan was well prepared with her answer....Fang Jinshu, her head pounding, pulled Yu Lian aside to stop her from messing with the fungi any further. She brought over a basin of water.

"Wash your hands thoroughly, these germs are absolutely inedible and all of them are poisonous."

"If we really ate it, I reckon our whole family would be knocked out tonight."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the courtyard froze for a moment. Zong Bai was the first to recover.

"Are these mushrooms poisonous"

"But sister-in-law," Jade Lotus hurried to ask, "last time wasn't it you who said red umbrella white pole, eat together and lie on the board"

"Isn't this sentence saying that the mushrooms of the red umbrella and white pole are very delicious, and eating them makes you sleep well"

Fang Jinshu was amused and touched at the same time, she covered her forehead and shook her head.

"How could this be, how could this sentence mean this"

Human thought processes are truly limitless. The last time she ate mushrooms, she casually mentioned this joke, but unexpectedly, Jade Lotus remembered it and understood it this way.

She quickly corrected the public's misunderstanding.

"When I say 'lying board', it means to die after eating!"

This red-umbrella, white-stemmed mushroom is poisonous and very toxic.

"If you don't know about fungi, I suggest you don't pick them randomly on the mountain to eat, it can be fatal."

Yulian listened to the whole thing and was completely stunned. Looking at the mushrooms all over the floor, she wilted.

"I thought they could eat it all, but I guess I misunderstood."

"All that work for nothing."

Fan Jinshui told Yulian to wash her hands quickly. She had picked so many mushrooms, her hands must have gotten some of the poison on them. If she didn't wash them thoroughly before eating, it would be troublesome.

When Yu Lian went to wash her hands, Zong Bai creepily sidled up to her.

I told you this red and green mushroom was no good, you insisted it was edible, luckily my sister-in-law knows what she's doing, otherwise we would be in trouble today.

Yulian glared at him angrily, just about to raise her hand to hit him, when Zongbei suddenly handed her a piece of candied fruit.

"Here, use this to wash it. It should get the poison out more thoroughly."

Yu Lian instantly calmed down a bit, grabbed her younger brother's arm and said, "Well, at least you still act like my brother."

Seeing so many mushrooms being dug up and buried by her sister-in-law, she even sighed with regret.

"Hey, looks like all our hard work today was for nothing."

“Am I really this unlucky All the mushrooms I found are poisonous There isn't even a single non-toxic one Anything at all would be helpful.”

"Stop daydreaming! All those mushrooms in that basket are contaminated. Even the non-poisonous ones have been touched by the poisonous ones."

"Don't sigh, if you really like eating mushrooms so much, let your sister-in-law tell you what non-toxic mushrooms look like. Just remember them all, and next time you go into the mountains to find some."

I saw that there were quite a few of these things growing on the side of the mountain. They come in all sorts of strange shapes and sizes, I think some might be edible and non-toxic.

Zong Yulian hurriedly nodded her head. That night, the whole family was lucky to avoid being poisoned by the poisonous spores and lying flat on their backs. To comfort Yu Lian's wounded heart, Fang Jinshu specially fried a dish of mushrooms that she had left over from last time.

This common mushroom is also found in the mountains, but it doesn't taste as good as other types of fungi.

After deep frying, sprinkle some bold seasonings and mix well. The texture is crispy and salty, it's not bad either.

Anyway, Yulian is eating happily.

At the dinner table, she once again fought with Zongbei for food. They would fight over every bite they ate every day, which made Fang Jinshu headache.

No matter how much they do, they're always like this. I guess this is just how siblings get along

Just as their family was happily enjoying dinner, a sudden series of rapid knocks on the door startled them.

"Who is it How could you knock on the door while I'm having a meal"

Fang Jinshi was also a bit helpless. This wasn't the first time. Several times villagers came knocking on their door and chose their house for meals, not even letting them eat a proper meal in peace.

What happened

Zongyu stood up and said, “I’ll go open the door.”

He was gone for a short while and brought in someone. It turned out to be Wang Yan'er, whom he hadn't seen in ages.

The last time I saw her was by the pond, just a fleeting glance. Wang Yan'er didn't feel comfortable going to talk to Fang Jinshu so she left.

Her eyes were bloodshot, clearly she had just been crying. As soon as she saw Fang Jinshu, she knelt before her with a thud, causing everyone in the room to be startled and flustered.
