Abandoned at Four, the Little Dumpling Makes the Imperial Capital Drool by Picking Mushrooms

[Everyone Gets Their Comeuppance] [A Little Girl Ventures into the Mountains] [Healing Food] [Maxed-Out Animal Affinity]

When Jiang Nuonuo was four, her whole family agreed she was a “jinx.”

All because her fake heiress of a sister said she wanted to eat game, her parents tossed little Nuonuo, dressed in only a thin shirt, into the snowy mountain forest.

“If you can’t find a hundred-year-old ginseng root, freeze to death out there and don’t come back!”

The whole village thought Nuonuo had frozen to death, while her parents were busy throwing a victory banquet for their fake heiress.

But who could have guessed...

Deep in the mountains, all kinds of beasts huddled around Nuonuo to keep her warm, thousand-year-old lingzhi mushrooms hopped into her little basket one after another, and a fierce black bear became her mount!

[First Day in the Mountains]: She finds a monkey head mushroom as big as a washbasin, making the neighbor’s kids drool with envy!

[Tenth Day in the Mountains]: She digs up a human-shaped fleeceflower root, and the apothecary shopkeeper fights tooth and nail to get it!

[One Month in the Mountains]: Nuonuo rides a tiger down the mountain to sell her goods and becomes an honored guest of the capital’s richest man!

When Nuonuo is dressed in silk and surrounded by luxury, cherished by the royal family as their little lucky charm, the parents and brothers who once abandoned her kneel in the snow, weeping as they beg her to spare them a glance...

Nuonuo bites into a candied hawthorn skewer and asks in a fierce little voice, “Uncle, Auntie, who are you?”
