A few days later, the golden ear and snow fungus that Yingbao had planted were ready to be harvested.
She and Chuchu were busy for several days, picking all the fungi and drying them, then replanting. They planted another six hundred golden ear and three hundred snow fungus.
She handed the dried golden ear and snow fungus to Mrs. Wen, also giving her some fruit preserves and freshly ripened apples for her and her daughter to eat on the journey.
On that day, Ms. Wen left the village with her daughter in a horse cart.
Surprisingly, Xu Kun and Chuyan also left with them.
Master Zhang Meng said Xu Kun and Chuyan were just escorting Mrs. Wen and would return after a few days.
But Yingbao didn't believe it at all because Chuchu cried a flood of tears when she was saying goodbye to Chuyan, as if they were parting forever.
