Chapter 69 -69 Definitely a problem student!
Jiang Zhe casually observed for a while and found that there were quite a few varieties of mushrooms here, with species similar to snow fungus also in abundance.
It seemed that on the surface, Jiang Yaowang and Jiang Xiruo’s business was mushroom trading, but actually, the real money was made from these rare varieties.
These rare varieties didn’t look much different from the common ones on the outside, and the average person would not be able to tell them apart at all.
Moreover, the smell here was indeed unpleasant for most people, so it was likely that even Xia Enci seldom came to this mushroom shed.
“What kind of mushroom is this?” Jiang Zhe asked as she saw Jiang Xiruo making some homemade mushroom snacks, just making conversation.
“They’re just king oyster mushrooms,” Jiang Xiruo said.
Jiang Zhe noticed she wasn’t telling the truth but didn’t call her out on it and instead reached out for two pieces, “I’ll help you with it.”
“If you’re that bored, then help me. They’re delicious, good for replenishing vitamins. Later on, you and Enci can bring more to school.”
She didn’t mention Jiang Fanyue, afraid it would sadden Jiang Zhe.
But privately, she probably planned to have Xia Enci bring some to Jiang Fanyue as well.
Jiang Zhe reached for a mushroom, watched Jiang Xiruo demonstrate once, then took over and quickly did a good job.
Then she wrapped them one by one in candy wrappers for easy carrying.
Jiang Xiruo hadn’t expected her to learn so quickly; she really was talented.
It looked like Jiang Zhe had never touched these before, yet she understood just by watching once.
She really was a good prospect.
If it weren’t for not wanting to involve Jiang Zhe in these matters, ensuring she got a proper university education as the proper path for a young girl, Jiang Xiruo would want her to learn alongside herself.
“Xiaozhe, you’re really amazing,” Jiang Xiruo exclaimed with admiration.
“If we do it like this, wouldn’t it better preserve the flavor?” Jiang Zhe showed her own technique to Jiang Xiruo.
By this method, the so-called king oyster mushrooms could better retain their texture and characteristics.
Jiang Xiruo was surprised, “Yeah, why didn’t I think of that?”
These so-called king oyster mushrooms were not actually king oyster mushrooms at all, but something called Cai’er, which only somewhat resembled them. Their benefits weren’t as significant as snow fungus, but they still were great for strengthening the body and calming the mind.
Following Jiang Zhe’s suggested method, the preservation of medicinal effects could be enhanced by fifteen percent, coming close to not wasting any bit of it.
Jiang Xiruo immediately processed them according to Jiang Zhe’s instructions.
After trying it out, indeed, all of them could be processed this way from now on.
“How did you think of this, Xiaozhe?” Now Jiang Xiruo was truly convinced that her talent was even stronger than she thought.
“Insiders are blinded, outsiders see clearly,” Jiang Zhe replied without taking credit.
Jiang Xiruo excitedly went on to process the Cai’er.
Jiang Yaowang glanced over at Jiang Zhe several times, his eyes filled with satisfaction, finally seeing the unique talent that only the Jiang family could produce.
The bloodline of the Jiang family was indeed different.
Seeing Jiang Zhe was also interested, Jiang Xiruo gathered a lot for her: “You made them yourself, keep some to eat, or give them as gifts to friends.”
Holding such a large bunch of precious Cai’er, which might not even be available on the black market, Jiang Zhe glanced at it and still accepted it, “Alright, then I’ll handle them myself.”
The ones Jiang Xiruo gave her were all processed by Jiang Zhe herself, so she accepted without ceremony.
Jiang Zhe returned to her room, and the papers of Xiao Meng and Xia Enci had also been proofread.
There were a few difficult problems left unaddressed.
Jiang Zhe took out the papers from her bag, which coincidentally only had the answers to these tough questions written on them.
“Wow, ask and you shall receive,” Xia Enci took over the papers, “That’s great, but I can’t understand this approach. Xiao Meng, take a look…”
After looking at it for a while, Xiao Meng said, “Let me explain it to you.”
…
The Jiang Family.
Jiang Zhang had tried to call Jiang Zhe without success from the very beginning.
The text messages also went unanswered.
Liang Jinlan was starting to get restless, “What on earth does she want?”
“Mom, I’ll speak to Teacher Tian first,” Jiang Fanyue was out of options, “so he doesn’t think we’re unwilling to help.”
“If I had known she was coming to our house today, I would have spoken to her about this.” Liang Jinlan thought of the possibility of offending Tian Wangcheng and felt furious.
Jiang Zhang said, “Didn’t you say she was renting a house outside the school? Let’s go take a look there.”
The three of them set off immediately and soon arrived outside the compound.
But without knowing which unit Jiang Zhe lived in, they didn’t know how to find her.
“What about Wangjia Alley?” asked Jiang Zhang.
Liang Jinlan hemmed and hawed, “Wangjia Alley is a large community, with all sorts of people, tens of thousands of households. When they left, I didn’t ask for the exact address…”
Liang Jinlan had been all too eager to drive Jiang Zhe away at the time and had never thought to keep her address; where could she possibly find her now?
“You guys! You guys!” Jiang Zhang didn’t know what to say!
On Tian Wangcheng’s side, he was confidently awaiting news.
Such a trivial matter, with Jiang Zhe’s parents stepping in, should have been resolved quickly; perhaps Jiang Zhe would not only avoid apologizing but might actually end up apologizing to him.
He was feeling some regret; he should have thought of contacting Jiang Zhe’s parents sooner.
If he had taken the initiative earlier to have the parents step in to exert pressure, the situation would not have escalated to this point.
Seeing Jiang Fanyue’s number on the phone, Tian Wangcheng answered cheerfully, “Fanyue, how’s it going?”

“I’m sorry, Teacher Tian, but Jiang Zhe isn’t answering my parents’ calls, nor responding to messages. We also tried going to her place, but no one was there,” Jiang Fanyue’s voice grew fainter.
“What?” Tian Wangcheng couldn’t believe his ears.
“Sorry.” Jiang Fanyue was apologetic, but besides that, she could think of no other solution.
“Fine, I got it,” Tian Wangcheng hung up the phone.
He looked exceptionally grim at the thought of all the students returning to school soon.
Monday.
All the students of Jincheng First High School returned to campus.
The flag-raising ceremony would also take place during the morning reading time.
Jiang Fanyue specifically went to the office to find Tian Wangcheng.
“Teacher Tian, I’m sorry, I haven’t been able to get in touch with Jiang Zhe until now.” Jiang Fanyue came to show Tian Wangcheng her call log, and she even saved Jiang Zhang’s attempt records.
A dense list of dialed but unanswered calls had amounted to over a hundred.
Tian Wangcheng felt a pang in his heart looking at it.
“Has she always been like this?”
“Pretty much, ever since elementary school. My parents have never been able to control her,” Jiang Fanyue spoke in a low voice. “Now that she’s moved out, she’s even more unmanageable.”
“Hmph,” Tian Wangcheng thought of Jiang Zhe’s enchanting appearance, her long legs that the school uniform couldn’t conceal, and he knew she must be a problem student.
Now, it was just further confirmation of his thoughts.
Such a student was truly a blight on Jincheng First High School.
