Could it be that this person is suffering from a heart attack?

With this thought in mind, Liu Sisi hurriedly walked a few steps, picked up the jade bottle from the slanting ditch, and pulled out the plug. As expected, there were some black pills inside.

Liu Sisi quickly took a couple of steps, poured out a few pills from the jade bottle, and fed one into the man’s mouth. When she tried to feed him another, she unexpectedly found that the previous pill was still stuck in the man’s mouth and had not been swallowed.

The medicine wouldn’t work if he couldn’t swallow it!

What should she do?

Liu Sisi’s eyes darted around and fell on some thatch nearby. She immediately had an idea!

She quickly picked up a piece of thatch and gently tickled the man’s nose. In a short while, as she had hoped, he sneezed twice, showing signs of waking up.

“Hey! Quickly eat the medicine! Swallow it! How many pills do you need to take at once? Hey, hey, hey!”

Liu Sisi hurriedly asked questions while forcefully slapping the man’s face, trying her best to stir him.

“Let go…”

At the moment, Nan Tianzong was completely weak and unable to exert any strength. Couldn’t this annoying woman see that he was poisoned? Instead of trying to save him, she was forcing worm-expelling pills into his mouth; perhaps she thought he should have died from the poison instantly and wanted to hasten his death this way?

He tried to open his eyes and kill her with his glare!

Unfortunately, at this moment, his whole body began to feel cold and numb. Even if he clenched his teeth, he couldn’t utter a single word.

“Hey! Hurry up and swallow the pills! I’m telling you, if you die because you can’t swallow the lifesaving medicine in your mouth, you’ll die in vain! Listen to me! Swallow it quickly!”

Liu Sisi coaxed and persuaded him, using the same tactics she would use to deal with a kid.

Is heaven trying to annihilate me, Nan Tianzong?!

He could no longer resist the attack of the poison, his eyes rolled back, and he fell unconscious again.

“Hey! Can you hear me? Hey!…”

After a great deal of effort, Liu Sisi finally realized that the man had slipped back into unconsciousness. His teeth were clenched tightly, and she couldn’t see if the pills had been swallowed or not!

Turning her head, she suddenly saw some bright red fruits on the branches in the bushes not far away. The fruits were as big as a thumb and hung in clusters, looking very lovely.

They were thorny elaeagnus!

Liu Sisi’s heart leaped with joy!

It seemed that the man had only held the pills in his mouth and hadn’t swallowed them. The thorny elaeagnus fruits were full of water, so if she could squeeze some juice into his mouth, the pills might dissolve, and even if he couldn’t swallow them, at least the juice could flow down automatically, right?

Action spoke louder than words!

Liu Sisi got up in a hurry, ran to the bushes, picked a handful of fruits, hurried back in front of the man, aimed at the corner of his mouth, and squeezed the fruits in her hand forcefully!

Just as she had thought!

Although a lot of thorny elaeagnus juice was wasted, the man had managed to ingest most of it. Liu Sisi finally breathed a sigh of relief!

However, Liu Sisi, who was eager to save the man, didn’t notice that when she hurriedly picked the thorny elaeagnus, a leaf from another wild plant got mixed in. As she squeezed the juice out of the thorny elaeagnus in her hand, the juice from that leaf was also squeezed out and went into the man’s mouth…

It wasn’t until there was no more juice coming out from the thorny elaeagnus in her hand that Liu Sisi cautiously checked the man’s breathing, only to find that it had gradually become stable!

Hehe! It seemed that the medicine finally worked!

It was exhausting!

As soon as Liu Sisi let out a sigh of relief, she immediately slumped to the ground, panting heavily. Saving lives is really tiring!

But fortunately, she was able to save the man, which could be considered a credit.

It’s a good thing she decided to go this way earlier, otherwise, how could she have encountered him?

Going this way… Oh no! Her huge prize! Hopefully, no one else gets to it first!

Upon thinking of this, how could Liu Sisi keep sitting still?

She quickly got up and ran towards where she had found the shaggy ink cap earlier. Indeed, the big snake had already left without her knowing when. Only those thick clusters of shaggy ink caps were still growing densely on the ant mound.

Perfect!

Using both hands and feet, Liu Sisi quickly picked the shaggy ink caps. Her basket, which was already more than half full of mushrooms, suddenly brimmed over. To prevent others from seeing them, Liu Sisi purposely poured out the ordinary mushrooms and placed the shaggy ink caps below.

It wasn’t until all the shaggy ink caps were picked that she put the ordinary mushrooms back on top. Using a few large kudzu leaves, she securely covered the basket’s surface and tied it up with kudzu vines . Satisfied, she finally smiled.

Today was a big harvest indeed!contemporary romance

Although she didn’t know how much these wild mushrooms would sell for, she assumed their price shouldn’t be lower than ordinary vegetables!

Not to mention the shaggy ink caps hidden underneath!

As Liu Sisi walked back, thinking about it, she reached the spot where the man had been lying earlier. He had vanished without a trace.

If it weren’t for the crushed wild grass and the remains of the thorny elaeagnus she had discarded on the ground, Liu Sisi might have thought that she had just been dreaming.

He actually left without saying goodbye! That’s so rude!

But it’s better that he left. It means that at least his life is now safe!

She then shifted her focus on the branches full of red thorny elaeagnus fruits. Why not…pick some of these fruits to try selling? Any unsold fruits would be discarded since they didn’t cost her anything. She knew exactly how to do a business without any upfront costs!

Putting down her basket, she cheerfully gathered an entire dress pocket of these thorny elaeagnus fruits. After calculating how many she had gathered in her makeshift container, she stopped picking and headed home, satisfied with the amount.

What she didn’t know was that while she was picking fruits by the thorny elaeagnus tree, a poor wild plant – which had just played a significant role, had turned to nothing under her feet…

Only its roots, which looked identical to those around it, remained in the soil, not knowing when they would grow and sprout again!

When she came back to the large rocks, Liu Sisi looked up and saw the siblings, Ying’er and Xuan’er, playing.

“Xuan’er, Ying’er, let’s go home!”

Upon hearing Liu Sisi’s voice, Ying’er immediately ran over and grabbed her dress: “Mom, Ying’er missed you! Mom, look at the fruits Ying’er and Xuan’er picked!”

In the direction of Ying’er’s finger, next to the large rocks, there was a large pile of red and fragrant loquats!
