Li Xiaoran looked at her cousin and said, “If there were fewer red dots on your arm, I would have believed you!”

Seeing that his cousin had discovered it, Zhao Yan touched his head in embarrassment.

“Xiaoran, why are you here?”

Li Xiaoran explained her intentions, “I came to see how your mushrooms are

growing.”

Zhao Yan was a little troubled.

“I don’t know if I planted the mushrooms successfully or not!”

Zhao Yan couldn’t explain it clearly, so he simply let Li Xiaoran see for herself.

Li Xiaoran was about to enter when Zi Cheng thought of something and took out a bottle.

“Madam, Young Master asked me to bring this. If you’re afraid of being bitten by mosquitoes, apply this medicine on you. It’s harmless!”

When Li Xiaoran heard Zi Cheng’s words, she took the small bottle.

“This is a mosquito repellent?”

Zi Zheng nodded. “That’s right. It’s a mosquito repellent!”

With that, Zi Zheng took out another bottle and handed it to Zhao Yan. “Young Master Luo said that this bottle is for Young Master Zhao!”

When Zhao Yan heard that it was from Luo Cheng, he immediately took it happily.

“Then I won’t stand on ceremony!” With that, Zhao Yan poured some out and wiped it on his hands, neck, and face.

Although it was summer and they were dressed in cool clothing, everyone was used to long-sleeved clothes, so they weren’t afraid of being bitten by mosquitoes.

They were wearing shoes, socks, and shoes, so they weren’t afraid of mosquitoes.

Only their hands, neck, and face were exposed.

After Li Xiaoran applied some on herself, Zi Zheng also took out a bottle and applied it on himself.

Then, the few of them walked into the forest.

They looked at the logs in the forest. Some had mushrooms growing on them, and some had fungus on them, but most were empty.

Zhao Yan said gloomily, “I moved all the firewood that grew mushrooms here and took good care of them. However, most of them didn’t grow mushrooms, only a small portion did!”

He had taken it for granted! He had thought of planting mushrooms too simply. Therefore, he failed to achieve anything even now.

When Li Xiaoran saw what Zhao Yan had done, she thought for a moment and said, “Zhao Yan, your planting method is wrong. You’re completely relying on luck! Didn’t I tell you before? If you don’t know how to plant them, come and find me. I’ll tell you how to plant them!”

Zhao Yan didn’t take Li Xiaoran’s words to heart previously.

He felt that since he had grown up in the mountains and often picked mushrooms, he must be more experienced in planting mushrooms. Although Xiaoran was very smart, she might not know everything!

With this thought in mind, Zhao Yan didn’t think of asking Li Xiaoran for help at all.

After Li Xiaoran sensed Zhao Yan’s thoughts, she was amused.

It seemed that if she didn’t show her skills, her cousin wouldn’t know about her abilities.

“Last time, I told you to tell me to come with when you pick mushrooms. Why didn’t you call me? If you had called me earlier, these mushrooms would have been planted long ago!” Li Xiaoran shook her head and said, “How about this? Let’s get someone to tidy this place up first and build two rooms in a cool and damp place. Then, let’s get someone to make wooden shelves and place them here. In addition, I’ll list some things for you. Prepare everything according to the list! When we go up the mountain to pick mushrooms next time, I’ll go with you to choose some fungi and bring them back to cultivate.” Zhao Yan was stunned when he heard Li Xiaoran’s words.

“Xiaoran, do you really know how to plant mushrooms?”

Li Xiaoran said angrily and amusedly, “Why would I lie to you?! If you don’t believe me, after I plant mushrooms, you’ll know that I didn’t lie to you!”

At this point, her cousin still didn’t believe that she knew how to plant mushrooms.

Zi Cheng couldn’t stand it anymore and looked at Zhao Yan.

“Young Master Zhao, listen to Madam! Listen to her!”

Zhao Yan nodded when he heard their words.

He had no other choice, so he might as well listen to his cousin’s opinion. Perhaps she could really plant mushrooms.

“Alright, I’ll listen to you!”

Li Xiaoran really didn’t know what to say when she saw her cousin acting like this.

“Since you’ve decided to listen to me, get someone to build the house quickly! Remember, it has to be in a cool and damp place, but the ground has to be paved with stones. You’re not allowed to slack off and use this kind of soil ground!”

Zhao Yan nodded and noted what Li Xiaoran had said.

After Li Xiaoran returned, she wrote something and asked Zi Cheng to send it to Zhao Yan.

The things Li Xiaoran wanted were all commonplace things.

For example, wood shavings, straw, bran, rice chaff, lime, and so on.

After Li Xiaoran was done, He Hui and her family happened to arrive at the Luo family’s house. After Li Xiaoran washed her face and tidied up, she went to the hall.

Seeing that Li Xiaoran was here, Luo Cheng asked in surprise, “Has the matter with your cousin been resolved?”

Li Xiaoran replied, “No, there’s no progress at all. I asked him to prepare some things and call me along the next time he goes up the mountain to pick mushrooms!”

When Luo Cheng heard this, he understood what was going on!

“That’s good. Let’s talk to Aunt Hui about raising ducks together!”

He Hui and Guan Dongshan were confused when they heard their words.

He Hui asked in confusion, “Raise ducks? What ducks? Xiaoran, you want to raise ducks too?”

After Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng exchanged looks, Li Xiaoran spoke.

“Aunt Hui, Uncle Guan, it’s like this!”

With that, Li Xiaoran told He Hui about their plan to open a workshop in the village, raise ducks, and open a duck workshop.

He Hui didn’t expect Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng to look for them today to talk about this.

To be honest, they hadn’t raised many ducks over the years and they had even reduced the quantity of ducks.

In the past, they raised a bunch of ducks because they wanted to earn more money so that they could treat their child’s illness.

Now that the child had recovered and everything at home had returned to normal, there was naturally no need to work so hard.

When they heard that Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran were going to raise ducks, the two of them were a little surprised.

“In the past, we only raised ducks and spent a lot of effort to sell them. Are you sure the ducks can be sold? I know you guys are just being kind and want to help the people in the village live a better life, but these things aren’t as simple as you think! If the ducks are raised but can’t be sold, they will lose a lot of money. When the time comes, the people in the village will definitely blame you guys!” He Hui was sincerely thinking for Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng’s sake..
