The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly

Chapter 862: Chapter 338: Screw Your Tragic Beauty (Part 8)_2

Ms. Hetian, though unaware of the storyline, had never met the female lead, Han Dongdong.

But she had a premonition that her son would remember Han Dongdong for a lifetime, surely because this girl had qualities that surpassed ordinary girls.

Moreover, Han Dongdong was different from Qiu Zhaodi; she didn’t know that He Xiaobao would become a villain in the future.

She gave He Xiaobao a piece of pancake purely out of kindness.

A girl with such beautiful qualities, if she had the same ”adventure” as Qiu Zhaodi, had foreknowledge of the plot, she certainly wouldn’t do nothing like Qiu Zhaodi, just waiting for He Xiaobao to follow his destined path.

This is the difference between people.

It’s also why Han Dongdong could become the protagonist!

The current Qiu Zhaodi, muttering to herself, eyes full of schemes, simply wasn’t worthy!

Ms. Hetian glared hatefully at Qiu Zhaodi’s back, perhaps her gaze was too intense, even Qiu Zhaodi felt it.

She quickly turned around, looked left and right, muttering in confusion: ”No one is there? Why do I always feel like I’m being watched by a venomous snake?”

Ms. Hetian dodged quickly:... You’re the venomous snake!

However, Qiu Zhaodi was indeed hateful, yet she had told Ms. Hetian many ”secrets.”

Although these secrets couldn’t yet be proven true, Ms. Hetian instinctively believed them, thinking Qiu Zhaodi wasn’t lying.

Whether it was He Xiaobao’s tragic fate or He Erniu’s change of heart after making it big, Ms. Hetian didn’t care much about these.

Because she had confidence, as long as she properly protected her son, as long as she worked hard, their mother-son life wouldn’t be too bad.

Ms. Hetian pretended to be arranging clothes, as if she were just coming out of the toilet, returned to He Xiaobao.

Seeing his mother return as promised, He Xiaobao was very happy, pulling her hand, they fed the braying donkey together.

In the afternoon, Ms. Hetian took Xiao Bao to the woods to gather firewood, dig wild vegetables, or find some mushrooms and such.

Although this place also suffered from drought, it was still better than places like He Family Village and Tianjiawa.

There was still some vegetation in the deeper mountains.

Mr. Tian and his group chose to pause here for a day or two, one reason being they were tired from days of travel.

The other reason was they spotted greenery here, hoping to find some food in the woods or find a little spring water.

”Mom, there are mushrooms here! And they’re red! So pretty!”

He Xiaobao had been to the woods before, but he always went alone. He was scared and didn’t dare to go deep, only gathering dry branches from the outskirts or digging up withered wild vegetables.

Ms. Hetian, being strong, always carried back a large bundle of firewood quickly, then hurriedly returned to do other chores.

Therefore, moments like this, where Ms. Hetian held He Xiaobao’s hand, mother and son chatting and laughing, strolling leisurely in the woods, were absolutely a first.

With his mother’s company, He Xiaobao, who was sensible like a little adult, rarely showed his lively, childlike side.

He hopped around like a curious little rabbit, running and jumping, calling his mom excitedly every time he saw unfamiliar wild vegetables or rare mushrooms.

Ms. Hetian had picked half a basket of very common oyster mushrooms, but hearing her son’s words now, her heart skipped a beat.

Red mushrooms?

Isn’t that the notorious red mushroom?

She didn’t know where she had heard the song from, but whenever red mushrooms were mentioned, a brainwashing melody echoed in her ears—

”Red mushroom, white stem; eat it and you’ll lie flat together.”

The poisonous mushrooms, if eaten, seeing smurfs would be the least of problems, a small mishap and you’d end up dead!

”Xiao Bao, don’t pick mushrooms you don’t recognize, they might be poisonous!”

Ms. Hetian recognized the mushroom was poisonous at first glance, yet she couldn’t provide a basis for it, just had such certainty.

When instructing her son, she used ”perhaps.”

”Brightly colored or oddly shaped, if it doesn’t smell fragrant, are basically poisonous mushrooms, don’t eat them, eating them could cost your life!”

Ms. Hetian briefly educated her son, but with so many varieties of mushrooms in nature, each poisonous mushroom differs, making it hard to accurately determine if a mushroom is poisonous.

The safest way is not to touch any new varieties you haven’t eaten or seen before.

Ms. Hetian told all this to her son.

”Okay, mom, I understand!”

He Xiaobao was very obedient, as a precocious child with a ”rely on himself” mindset, he understood everything his mom told him.
