My mystery lover novel (Richard and Amy)
Chapter 285 Go back Home

There was a slight change in Richard and Amy's relationship after their battle with the python, but neither of them noticed it.

As they got up the next morning, the weather was pretty fine. The blue sky was as pure as a child's eyes.

She didn't see the sunrise, as she slept late last night and no one bore to wake her up in the early morning. It was already 7:30 when she got up, and the sun was shining bright.

"Oh, why didn't you wake me up? Didn't we agree to see the sunrise?" Amy was very regretted that she had missed the beautiful scenery. The landscape here was different at any moment. However, if she wanted to invest here, there would be chances.

"We can see other beautiful places after breakfast. I hope what happened yesterday didn't scare you." The village chief thought Amy must have been frightened.

"No, it didn't scare me." Amy used to be afraid of snakes, but after an accident, she was no longer afraid of the animal.

When they finished the breakfast, they set out for a new journey. After yesterday's accident, the village chief asked everyone to stay together. Although there was no danger, they should be careful.

Up on the hill, Amy was very interested in the mushrooms that grew everywhere and she picked up the beautiful mushrooms as the village chief did. But when she collected a basket of mushrooms, Richard emptied her basket.

"Oh, Richard, why did you throw out all my mushrooms?" Amy was so angry that she didn't let Richard go.

Richard also picked a basket of mushrooms, but he held his basket high so Amy couldn't touch it.

"Because the mushrooms you picked are poisonous. They looked beautiful but they aren't edible." The village chief's little girl had a crush on Richard. She thought he was handsome!

"They're poisonous?" Amy then remembered that before they ascended the hill, the village chief said many of the brightly colored mushrooms were poisonous. But when she saw such beautiful things, she forgot what the village chief said.

Luckily, Richard had dumped it all.

Richard felt she was a bit pitiful as Amy didn't speak. "Look, there are some edible mushrooms. Go pick some. We can add another dish for lunch." said Richard, pointing to a clump of mushrooms. Amy immediately cheered herself up and went to the mushrooms.

It was such a big clump of mushrooms that picked many and half-filled her basket.

"What kind of mushroom is this? I have to keep it in mind." Amy gave her basket to Richard.

"It is a very valuable species, called Collybia albuminosa. Every year, this place has to generate a certain amount of mushrooms. Now, this mushroom will be exported." The little girl explained it to Amy. "Wow, I'm very lucky, right? I picked the best mushrooms." Amy looked smug as she heard what the girl said. Then she followed everyone down the hill with her basket.

Today, she had climbed the mountain and took the boat. Everything was very calm. After enjoying the unique beauty here, Amy was really interested in investing here.

"It's only two and a half hours' drive from the city. There are rich resources in the mountains, such as wild fruits, mushrooms, all kinds of wild vegetables, and fish. There are all kinds of fishes in the pools below so I think here is a good place to invest." The chief of the village praised his village, in the hope that Richard and Amy could invest here, so that every villager could make money.

"Well, we'll think about it." Richard and Amy didn't make the decision right away. They needed to learn more about the city's preferential policies.

At noon, they had a mushroom meal in the village chief's house. The mushrooms were so delicious, but it took great efforts to wash them. Amy wanted to Allen to learn how to make mushroom dishes, so she went to help the village chief's wife wash the mushrooms.

"Aunt, it's so difficult to clean the mushrooms. Why could you clean them so fast?" Amy wanted to hear about some experience.

"Miss Newell, we're used to doing the farm work. At this time of year, we'll wash a lot of mushrooms, especially Collybia albuminosa you just picked, and we will use it to make oil. They taste so good with dishes." The village chief's wife was smiling happily. She knew that Amy and Richard would come here to invest.

In the afternoon when Amy and Richard were about to leave, the village head's wife gave them some special products of her own home, which made Amy very happy.

On the way back, Amy talked a little more. She chattered to Richard for about half an hour and then slept in the back seat.

Actually, Richard wanted to stay in that village. How nice it would be to live in such a peaceful place with Amy all his life.

"Will you come to my house today? You're going to see Allen's anyway." Richard asked Amy.

Amy woke up. She had not yet remembered where she was now, and looked ahead blankly.

"What did you say?" Amy didn't hear what Richard was saying to her.

"I said you might come to my house for dinner. You're picking up Allen anyway. My car broke down and you're taking me home," said Richard again and held back his laughter. "All right, then." Amy thought for a second and agreed.

Richard was delighted and he called Cathy, asking her to prepare the dinner for Amy.

Back at the Carter's Mansion, Richard drove Amy's car in. Allen and Cathy were waiting at the door. As soon as Allen saw his mother, he stretched out his round arms.

"Mommy, you are finally back. Mr. Carter, you're back!" Allen reached over to Amy and gave her a kiss, then lunged at Richard.

Richard picked up his son and held him high, and Allen was laughing merrily.

"Put him down. It's too scary and dangerous," shouted Amy. Richard lifted Allen so high, what if he missed to catch Allen?

"Ah!" But at that moment, Richard threw Allen up in the midair, and Amy was so fearful that she screamed.[
