The family was amazed when Su Binglan told them about the various uses of mung beans. She had found the mung beans while exploring the forest near the mountain. One could use them for farming or eating.

The family wondered if they could grow them in a few days, as Su Binglan said. They carefully considered her words and became excited.

Shen Zhishan clenched his fists and was sure what he heard was true. Jiang Nainai was shocked as she looked at the mung beans Su Binglan had found.

Although Shen Gang had seen many things throughout his life, he was surprised by what his niece said. He often went to the mountains to chop wood and had come across mung beans.

However, no one tried eating them after one of the villagers tasted it and said it might be poisonous. Therefore, everyone ignored the mung beans.

Shen Gangs lips trembled until he finally found his voice, saying, “Can we really eat these, Binglan? I didn’t know we could grow them, too.”

He never knew what those things were, but he believed his niece when she said they could harvest them. Still, he was in disbelief and had to ask again to confirm he had not misheard her.

Su Binglan smiled and said, ‘You can grow and eat mung beans, Grandpa.

Since there aren’t many available vegetables during winter, you can use these. The restaurants will be happy to buy these from you.

“If you’re concerned, I can cook these tonight to show you how good they taste.”

Su Binglan wanted to cook the mung beans but had to soak them first. Since that would take some time, she could not make them for lunch.

Everyone believed the mung beans would taste good after cooking them since Su Binglan said so.

Shen Qiuhua said, “Let’s trust Binglan. She even found the soybeans we use in our tofu factory. We never knew we could use soybeans to make tofu until she showed us how. We relied on our tofu products to improve our lives.” She sighed when she recalled the Su familys past. However, the family had changed so much in just half a year. She was still in disbelief when she thought about it.

The Su family had better food and better clothes. It made Shen Qiuhua and the others feel highly accomplished. After all, the family’s happiness was the most important thing.

Shen Gang and Lin Qin knew their G.o.ddaughter would never lie. Lin Qin said excitedly, “All right, we’ll listen to Binglan and do whatever she says.”

‘Binglan has been generous and taught us so much. How can we not trust her?

I was just too shocked to hear something so good.’

Lin Qin did not think they could eat and grow mung beans. Moreover, they could harvest the beans in just a few days. She could imagine how much her family would improve if they sold the mung beans.

She used to work for the Shen family and knew vegetables were scarce during winter. Although wealthy families could afford meat, vegetables were seasonal.

‘If we can produce vegetables, we can earn a lot by selling them.’

With that thought in mind, Lin Qin felt a pa.s.sionate fire burning within her. She could not bear to spend the money her G.o.ddaughter had given her because she knew Shen Qiuhua had worked hard to earn it.

Lin Qin had always kept aside that money to return to Shen Qiuhua. However, things would be different if Lin Qin could earn her own money. Then, she would feel more at ease by not relying on her G.o.ddaughter.

‘We can also buy more nutritious food with our hard-earned money.’

Even Shen Zhishan and his wife were excited. Still, their elders were around, so they had to listen to the older couple’s opinions before giving their own.

Shen Zhishan and Jiang Nainai sighed in relief when the older couple nodded.

Usually, if the people of this era had a way to earn money, they would hide it from others and make a fortune for themselves. They would not even share the knowledge with their relatives.

However, Shen Qiuhua and Su Binglan were not stingy. Lin Qin and the others could not thank the mother-daughter duo enough.

Su Binglan’s words made her parents supportive of her. It was even more so for Luo Jin’an, who supported his wife in whatever she did. He would be delighted as long as his wife was happy.

Since everyone had the same opinion, Su Binglan said, “The most important thing we must do now is to gather the rest of the mung beans near the mountain.”

Although the mountain behind Blossom Village was small, many mung beans grew there.

Su Binglan also saw many s.h.i.+take mushrooms, but after chatting with her grandparents, she discovered that the villagers did not know how to distinguish poisonous mushrooms from ones that were not. Hence, no one dared to pick mushrooms.

Su Binglan wanted to teach Lin Qin and Shen Gang how to do it since they could use the mushrooms to make soups.

Shen Gang said, “I’ll go to the foot of the mountain to gather as many mung beans as possible.”

“Let me come too.” Jiang Nainai wanted to help, but the others refused to let her go because she was pregnant. Therefore, she could only stay home while Shen Qiuhua, Su Fengmao, and the others prepared to visit the mountain.

Shen Mohen and Luo Jin’an also wanted to help, but Su Binglan said, “Don’t rush, Grandpa. Let’s have lunch first. Either way, I must soak the mung beans and prepare them for dinner before we leave for the mountain.

“I’ll keep some aside to grow and soak the rest for dinner. Mung beans are nutritious, so eat more to nourish yourselves.”

When Su Binglan returned from the mountain just now, she checked Lin Qin’s pulse and found that the older woman was doing much better. Lin Qin even felt more energetic after taking her medicine and resting.

Since Su Binglan said she needed to soak some mung beans, the others followed suit to help. She needed warm water to soak the mung beans to grow them.

Hence, Shen Qiuhua helped boil some water. When the temperature was right, she poured the mung beans into the pot to soak.

Soon after, some of the beans became plump while the rest did not. Su Binglan left the plump ones to grow and used the rest to make mung bean cakes..
