"Wang Erniu and the others are going to pick up Chen Lili today?" Chen Zhaozhao asked in surprise.
Originally, Chen Lili was sentenced to half a year of detention and education, but she could be fished out with money.
But Lao Wang's family was unwilling to pay the money, and they also felt that Chen Lili was too embarrassing, so they decided to let her reform.
"Why are they willing to pick her up?" Chen Zhaozhao was confused.
"I heard I'm pregnant." Li Huarong said.
"Ah, you're pregnant?" Chen Zhaozhao was even more surprised.
Li Huarong suddenly became more secretive and lowered her voice and said, "I heard that Chen Lili made a big fuss and didn't want this child. The old Wang family had no choice but to take her back."
"Then we have to take him back." Chen Zhaozhao smiled. Chen Lili was pregnant with Wang Erniu's child, and now her involvement with Wang Erniu became even deeper.
When Chen Zhaozhao returned home, everyone in her family had already gotten up, and they all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw her back.
Because she said she was going to the black market and would come back later, but she came back too late and they were all worried.
Seeing that she came back well, they all breathed a sigh of relief, but seeing that there was nothing in her hands, Chen Simei asked, "Did anything happen to Zhaozhao? Didn't you say you bought some flour? Where's the flour?"
Don't think there was an accident and you couldn't buy flour, or someone robbed you of the flour you bought? Or maybe there was an accident and everything was scattered?
After all, we have encountered so many things recently. Possibilities that were once unimaginable are now possible.
Others also looked at Chen Zhaozhao worriedly.
Chen Zhaozhao was filled with warmth and concern, "Nothing happened, and the flour matter went well. Comrade Yu will bring it in the evening."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, "As long as nothing happened, go and have breakfast quickly. We have already eaten. Yours is hot in the pot."
Speaking of breakfast, Chen Zhaozhao's face became hot for some reason, "I've already eaten it."
"Have you eaten?" Chen Sanmei was surprised, "You bought food stamps to buy breakfast?"
Nowadays, you need food stamps to buy breakfast, unlike in later generations where you could just go to a restaurant and eat snacks if you had money.
"How wasteful you are." Liu Guihua couldn't help but feel distressed.
"No, Comrade Yu bought it." Chen Zhaozhao could only tell the truth, "I bought rice noodles to eat."
"Rice noodles?" Chen Simei's eyes lit up, "I heard others say that the rice noodles in the city are delicious. Is it delicious?"
"It's okay, it's not as delicious as our food." Chen Zhaozhao said with a smile, "Next time we will buy some rice noodles and cook them ourselves."
After a pause, he said, "I won't wait until next time, so I'll buy it tomorrow."
The staple food in Huixi County is rice, and there are many rice products. Rice noodles are the most common breakfast for people in the county, but they are a rare food in rural areas.
The supply and marketing cooperative sells dry rice noodles, and you can buy them with food stamps.
However, food stamps are rare and rarely available in rural areas, so rice noodles are generally not available for purchase.
"Buying rice noodles is a waste of money." Liu Guihua said.
"Oh~ we are not short of money now." Chen Zhaozhao said with a smile.
"Don't spend money lavishly. How much money do you think you have left? You have some money saved." Liu Guihua said.
Not to mention that people in the village don't have food stamps, even if they do, they won't use them to buy rice noodles.
Five kilograms of food stamps can buy five kilograms of rice, but only four kilograms of rice noodles. I can’t even eat enough. Who would spend money on rice noodles?
Eat less than a kilogram of food.
"We are still making money~ Spend it when you need to. Enjoying life is the most important thing, so I decided happily."
"Yes, yes, spend what you need and enjoy life." Chen Simei agreed very much with this sentence.
Liu Guihua looked at them like this, said nothing, and shook her head helplessly.
Today I left the tofu making to my sisters, and Chen Zhaozhao followed Chen Dawang and the others up the mountain.
Chen Dawang and Liu Guihua went up the mountain to chop wood to build a shed, while Zhang Genshan went to chop firewood.
"What are you doing up the mountain?" Liu Guihua asked.
"I'm going to sell Ganoderma lucidum. If I find a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, we'll make a fortune." Chen Zhaozhao said happily.
She felt that the speed of making money was too slow. She wanted to make a lot of money. She thought about it and now the only way to make a lot of money quickly was to sell valuable medicinal materials.
Southwest Province is a mountainous area, and there is no ginseng in the mountains. The most valuable thing is Ganoderma lucidum.
Many people have collected Ganoderma lucidum from the mountains, but the age of the Ganoderma lucidum is very short and not very valuable. People in the village use it to replace Zhao Langzhong's medicinal wine.
But Chen Zhaozhao thought that she had a spiritual spring, and as long as she came across a Ganoderma lucidum, she could make it valuable.
The more Chen Zhaozhao thought about it, the more excited she became, but Liu Guihua and the others thought she was just dreaming.
"What's the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum? There's no such thing as a century-old Ganoderma lucidum." Liu Guihua said.
"Not to mention the Ganoderma lucidum that has been around for thousands of years. I have never seen the shadow of Ganoderma lucidum." Chen Sanmei said, "It's better to go to the mountains to find some mushrooms."
"There are no mushrooms this season. It's more realistic to catch a wild boar," Chen Simei said.
"Wild boar? It's so fierce. It's too late to run away when you see it." Chen Sanmei said, "There are pheasants."
Chen Zhaozhao listened to everyone's words and shook his head, "I only recognize Ganoderma lucidum."
"Do you know where Ganoderma lucidum is found? How can you find it if you look for it like this?" Chen Ermei asked.
"I saw Doctor Zhao retrieving Ganoderma lucidum from Donggu Mountain," Zhang Genshan said.
"Really?" Chen Zhaozhao's eyes lit up, "Then I will go to Donggu Mountain for a walk."
In fact, in her previous life, she heard that people found Ganoderma lucidum from Donggu Mountain. However, the Ganoderma lucidum was short-lived and not very valuable, but one kilogram was sold for the price of two kilograms of pork at that time.
"Donggu Mountain is too far, you can't go alone." Chen Dawang objected.
"Yeah, you haven't been to the mountains very often." Chen Simei said, "Let me go with you."
"Farewell, I can do it alone. It's important for you to make tofu at home. If you don't find Ganoderma lucidum, don't waste your time."
"You're still going to waste your time?" Chen Sanmei asked back.
"What if I'm lucky enough to meet you?"
Everyone couldn't resist Chen Zhaozhao, so they had no choice but to let her go.
Chen Zhaozhao went out with Chen Dawang and others full of hope.
When they reached the lower reaches of the village and separated, Chen Dawang and Zhang Genshan went to the nearby mountains so that they could carry firewood and logs back closer and it would be less strenuous.
"Can you do it alone? How about I go with you?" Liu Guihua said uneasily.
"No, I'm going alone. You guys hurry up and cut the wood. We still need to build a new toilet."
In this way, Chen Zhaozhao set off to the relatively remote Donggu Mountain alone.
Donggu Mountain is relatively deep, but many people have gone up the mountain in recent years, and the road is relatively clean. It has just rained, and the branches on the roadside have covered the road.
Although the rain stopped for a day, it was still wet in the woods. Chen Zhaozhao wanted to keep the water droplets away while walking, so he walked slowly.
Even so, it was a little wet.
But her hard work paid off, and she actually found a Ganoderma lucidum under a big pine tree.
The Ganoderma lucidum was very small, and it didn't take long to grow, but it was enough to make Chen Zhaozhao ecstatic.
She quickly rushed to the Ganoderma lucidum, watering the small Ganoderma lucidum with spiritual spring water while dreaming about getting rich.
However, when the spiritual spring was poured down, the Ganoderma lucidum did not change at all.
"How could this happen?" Chen Zhaozhao's heart suddenly went cold.
She refused to give up and tried again, but it still didn't work.
She tried several times but failed.
Her heart was completely cold.
Just when she was disappointed and sad, she saw a larger Ganoderma lucidum a little further inside, which rekindled her hope.
She quickly went over to do some manipulations, but the Ganoderma lucidum remained unchanged and even disappeared after she poured it on it.
"Huh?" Chen Zhaozhao died speechless.
My heart is completely cold.
She went to try some plants nearby and found that the spiritual spring was useless for medicinal materials. Her dream of getting rich was shattered.
It seems that the only way to make money is to work hard bit by bit.
Chen Zhaozhao went down the mountain in despair, and suddenly saw a large wooden pier. Her eyes lit up and she ran over.
