After Chen Jianmin was done eating, he poured himself a glass of warm water. He liked to drink their water, it was sweeter and better tasting than the water at home.
After drinking, he filled the bamboo bottle with warm water and then left the kitchen with the dishes. As soon as he came out, he saw Li Chenmo already helping his wife wash the vats.
Seeing him coming out, Li Chenmo said, "We will go in a moment."
Chen Jianmin nodded after listening to his words. He washed the dishes first, then helped them to clean up the vats and moved the washed fruits and vegetables to the backyard. After everything was taken care of, they finally headed up the mountain.
Seeing them leaving, Dong Huang looked at her busy mother and asked, "Mother, when can I go to the mountains with my father and brother?"
Lu Jueyu patted her head and said, "Xiao Huang is still too young. When you grow to be as tall as your brother, you can go to the mountains."
When Dong Huang heard this, her eyes lit up. She nodded and said, "Xiao Huang understands, Mother. Xiao Huang will grow taller. Taller than my brother!"
Lu Jueyu smiled at her and did not remind her that when she grew taller, her brother would also grow taller. From this point of view, whether she can go up the mountain in this life is still a question.
’Ah, the little girl is so cute!’ she thought with a smile.
At the same time, Li Chenmo, Dong Li, and Chen Jianmin had arrived in the bamboo forest.
When walking through this area, Chen Jianmin took a look at the mushrooms growing densely in this area.
Seeing this, Li Chenmo said, "If you want to pick those mushrooms, come here tomorrow. The mushrooms here grow very fast, and picking them every day is not a problem."
Chen Jianmin heard this and asked, "There are mushrooms growing here, why is no one coming to pick them?"
"This place is very close to my home, but far away from the village. If you don’t take the bamboo bridge, it will take almost two hours to reach the bamboo forest. What’s more, the road on the other side of the bamboo forest is steep and slippery. It is very dangerous," Dong Li explained.
"So, if you want to pick mushrooms in this area, come here through my backyard. The area is relatively safe and my father and uncles have built a simple road to reach the bamboo forest where you can pick mushrooms and bamboo shoots," he added.
Li Chenmo had a slight smile on his face when he heard Dong Li call him father instead of adoptive father. It is not easy for Dong Li to open his heart. So, it was a joyous thing to hear the word father come out of his mouth.
Patting his son on the shoulder, Li Chenmo nodded and said, "Yes, you can come to our house anytime. Xiao Li also learned to make traps and put them on the mountain. You can learn from him."
