Ge Dejun and Xu Linjiang both burst into hearty laughter, unable to complete their sentences.
"You, why are you so incredibly clever?" Ge Dejun couldn’t help but tap her on the head.
Feeling that even his own daughter was never as clever as her, Ge Dejun genuinely couldn’t help but like Chiang Xiao.
Chiang Xiao flashed him a toothy grin, "Uncle, you’re not scolding me anymore? Then come on, I have other discoveries to tell you about! Our unexpected haul today is not just this wild boar!"
Ge Dejun and Xu Linjiang’s eyes lit up, and they immediately stood up, excitedly asking, "Little, what else did you find?"
Chiang Xiao took each of them by a hand, leading them towards the small woods.
"Ta-da!" She stood before the fallen tree and revealed her secret like presenting a treasure, "Tree mushrooms! Surprised or not? Delighted or not?"
It was truly a big surprise!
Ge Dejun and Xu Linjiang widened their eyes in astonishment, with Xu Linjiang even squatting down immediately, picking a big mushroom and giving it a pinch, "They’ve grown so well!"
"Bai Gu Mountain is a treasure mountain indeed, Little, your grandfather was right!" Ge Dejun also repeatedly exclaimed, "The produce is really rich, and everything grows so well here."
Chiang Xiao said, "And there’s not a small amount either. Uncle, Aunt’s husband, look! This whole area of the woods is full of tree mushrooms! I believe Ma Jincai would definitely be willing to buy them."
The price of tree mushrooms would not be lower than wild vegetables. With this, they could really earn a lot of money.
"Mhm, mhm, you’re right, we don’t need to worry about the tree mushrooms going to waste; if they don’t sell, we can dry them. During the big market days in town, we can always sell a bit, no worries about selling them."
"That’s why I often feel that Grandpa is just too timid, guarding a treasure mountain and still managing to live so poorly," Chiang Xiao said.
What she meant was that the people of the entire Siyang Village were foolish.
However, human nature is selfish, and now she did not hope for the whole village to swarm up the mountain, vying with them for its treasures.
Of course, she didn’t plan to rely on Bai Gu Mountain permanently.
She had to leave eventually; she had to go to the city, not because she looked down on the mountain village but because the memories the villagers left her with were gloomy. Her sense of belonging to Siyang Village was indeed weak.
Moreover, the mountain was fraught with dangers, and the work was physical labor.
Once the overall environment improved, she still hoped to make money by relying on her drawing skills.
After all, that was also her biggest hobby and interest.
Of course, in this life, she would not give Deng Qingjiang a single penny!
Even more, she had to find Deng Qingjiang to avenge the wrongs of her past life!
Maybe, when the time came, she wouldn’t need to look for him. Just like in her previous life, Deng Qingjiang and his people would appear before her on their own initiative.
"I think that’s enough for today, we don’t need to go any further. We can’t carry all this back," Ge Dejun was both excited and worried.
He and Xu Linjiang were barely able to carry the wild boar down the mountain, let alone harvest and carry back the ferns, Tianxiang Green, and tree mushrooms.
Even if they could harvest them, they couldn’t carry them all back.
Chiang Xiao was also worried.
With such a great harvest today, she felt there was no need to explore further. But she still wanted to find medicinal herbs, so weren’t they stumped now?
Yet after considering it, she felt relieved again.
