Chapter 197: Answer (2)
“Ah!” Li Man was shocked and threw herself into his arms, “Which tree?” She couldn’t see it.
“It’s at the pine tree on the edge of the road. It has many dense leaves; you probably can’t see it.” Li Mo answered.
Li Man’s heart jumped, she didn’t dare ask again, her body close following him. Originally, he was the one who held her hands, now she’s the one who squeezed his fingers tightly, her body was taught and leaning on him, afraid that something she doesn’t like would suddenly jump on her.
Li Mo turned his head slightly and sneaked a glance at her. She looked like a little animal who received an attack, leaving him feeling remorseful and uneasy.
Was he too much? This really scared her.
Luckily, in just a short time, he took her into a small deep valley with a clear stream of flowing water and lush green grass.
The fresh air blowing on her face made Li Man’s worried heart settle down a lot, she even felt that, as long as there’s Li Mo, even if there’s a group of snake, it wouldn’t be terrible.
She’s not afraid anymore.
“What is this place?” Li Man asked with joy apparent in her face.
“There’s no name.” Li Mo looked at her and said, “However, if we’re tired of hunting, we usually come here to rest. The water here is so sweet.”
Saying this, he walked over to the creek, holding a handful of water in his hand and took a sip.
“Really?” Li Man learned from him and half-squatted on the side of the creek, holding some water and took a sip. It was sweet and refreshing, and it was really cool too.
Looking at the smile on her face, Li Mo felt very satisfied, “I’ll bring you again later if you like it. There will be more wild fruits growing in the mountains in autumn.”
“Really?” Li Man looked around when suddenly something ran past the forest in front. She yelled with joy, “Rabbit, rabbit-“
“Where?” Li Mo looked up and followed her line of sight.
Li Man grabbed his hand and ran towards the wood, “Right there! I just saw it ran to that side.”
Li Mo looked at her and smiled slightly, “The rabbit runs fast, we couldn’t catch up to it.”
“Oh.” Li Man was somewhat disappointed, but was quickly attracted to the green plants that grew flourishingly inside the woods.
She ran over and squatted down, it turned out to be wild garlic.
She was very happy and immediately picked up a lot of small wild garlic and removed the dirt from the roots.
Li Mo followed and looked at her curiously, especially when she grabbed the grass and looked at it like it was a treasure.
Li Man smiled and explained to him, “This is called wild garlic, it’s nutritional value is very high.”
“Can it be eaten?” Li Mo also picked a small bunch, it just looked like weed to him.
Li Man said, “Um, it can be eaten, and its delicious too! Wild garlic scrambled egg is very fragrant, I love eating it.”
“Oh.” Scrambled eggs? But there’s no egg at home.
“Look, I’ve picked so much, it should be enough for a few meals.” Li Man’s moves were very nimble, picking up several bunch in a sweep, putting them neatly aside. She suddenly thought of something and asked excitedly, “Big brother, what do you think if we sell these wild garlics in the market, will anyone buy it?”
“Sell this?” Li Mo didn’t know how to answer, he didn’t even know the taste of this thing.
Li Man’s excited eyes were shining brightly as she said to herself, “I think we can sell it, but we have to pick a lot of it now, tomorrow we could go to the market outside the mountain to try selling it. Even if no one wants it, we can just promote it to restaurants.”
“Promote?” What’s the meaning of it?
Li Man simply explained it to Li Mo, “That just means to sell these wild garlics.”
“Will those restaurants want the things that grows in this mountain?” Li Mo wasn’t very optimistic about this because these things looked very ordinary, but seeing Li Man so excited like this, he can’t really say what’s on his mind.
Moreover, she wanted to go out, so it won’t matter if he go with her to spend some free time, “Then, what do you say if I accompany you tomorrow for a trip?”
“Yeah!” Li Man was really happy. She looked at those large bunches of wild garlic and her imagination immediately ran wild, “If someone is willing to accept it, its better to specify the price not to be too low. It would be better if we can make a long-term collaboration. Our house already bought a land, right? When we go there, we could plant a lot of this, it might not be too bad.”
Looking at her eyes full of surprises and smiles, Li Mo was also greatly encouraged. At the same time, a bold thought suddenly surged into his mind, and the inexplicable impulse rolled in the bottom of his heart. He came over to her.
“ManEr.” He crouched down before her, his eyes burning and firm.
Li Man was still picking up the wild garlic, she didn’t care if he came before her. She responded with a voice, “Hm.”
“I want to discuss something with you.”
“Mn, ah?”
Li Man suddenly realized his voice sounded serious so she looked back in amazement. Facing Li Mo’s burning and firm eyes, she was a little bit stunned, “What?”
