Chapter 45 Planting Potatoes

Hearing this, Nuan Nuan, who had never spoken, asked, "Grandpa, what are your plans?"

Now that the old village head and the folks have made a decision, she will not intervene, but it doesn't mean she doesn't care about her family.

The old village head had some scruples, and the villagers were so kind and unprincipled, this would bring disaster to their new village.

Eat a ditch to gain wisdom, while the grain in the field has not yet been harvested, and her pond has not been dug, it is good to let the villagers learn a lesson.

Mr. Wen expressed his thoughts: "I think we should discuss with the village chief and send someone to guard the two wells."

The Wen family brothers all agreed: "That's the only way."

Dalang didn't express his opinion, and Saburo didn't speak either.

At this moment, Wen Nuan said, "Not only do we have to guard the two wells, but we also have to hide the valuables in our house, especially the food."

In addition to the food distributed by the village according to the head of the village, the food for Dafang and Erfang also includes bacon and white noodles that are distributed to them warmly, which adds up to a lot.

"Also," Nuan Nuan thought for a while, and then said to Uncle Wen Xingzu: "Uncle, Grandpa and Grandma have lost a lot of health, let Grandpa and Grandma live with us, I have to give Grandpa Grandpa and grandma take care of their bodies."

It is related to the bodies of the two elders, Nuannuan and medical skills, Wen Xingzu did not refuse, but looked at the old man.

However, the old man looked at his granddaughter, thinking about the strong resentment this child had towards the whole family when he first came back, and now all this has finally changed, and he did not want to brush off her filial piety: "Okay, tomorrow I will be with you." Your grandmother moved here."

Wen Nuan smiled and turned his eyes: "We have everything at home, Grandpa and Grandma can just come here tomorrow."

What she said just now was not alarmist, if the two elders don't take good care of their bodies, it may affect their lifespan.

Mr. Wen couldn't help laughing: "It's just a few steps away, and it's not ten miles away. You can come here anytime."

Mrs. Wen and Mrs. Wen came over before lunch the next day, Mrs. Luo asked Mrs. Su to come over to help, and the two cooked a table of delicious dishes, including steamed pork with rice noodles, braised pork ribs, braised carp, cold milk mushrooms, rapeseed and a The hot and sour potato shreds that everyone has never eaten, and a ginseng red date chicken soup, which is more hearty than their previous Chinese New Year.

In order to find an excuse to get these ingredients out of the space, Nuan Nuan went around the city gate, saying that they were bought in the city.

Mrs. Luo cooked more rice, and called everyone from the second room of the big house over, including Mrs. Su's mother and son, there were two tables.

Seeing that the old man and the old lady tasted a few pieces of tamales, Mrs. Luo smiled and said, "The tamales and the dishes on the table are all made by sister Su, and sister Su's culinary skills are not inferior to those of our previous restaurants in the town. where's the cook?"

"Second sister-in-law Wen, I don't dare to take credit for this." Su said with a smile: "Nuan Nuan told me how to make steamed pork with rice flour, and I just followed what she said. The real powerful person is Nuan Nuan. "

Wen Nuan blushed and said without panting: "I have eaten tamales with my grandfather before, but I have never done it myself. If I say it is the best, it is Mrs. Su who is the best. Just listen to me and I can make tamales with the same taste."

The eldest aunt Yuan Shi laughed: "Stop flattering each other, you're all amazing, right?"

After a pause, Yuan Shi said again: "But isn't your generation a bit messy? Xiaosu called his third aunt to be his sister-in-law, Nuannuan called Xiaosu's sister-in-law, and Qi'er called Nuannuan sister. Everyone who heard it felt dizzy. ?”

As the eldest daughter-in-law of the family, Yuan Shi pays more attention to these rules.

Wen Xingzu also nodded: "It is indeed a bit chaotic."

Su's is also hearty, and said directly: "Qi'er is already this big, how about it, Nuan Nuan and Wu Lang will call me Aunt Su in the future, won't it be messy?"

Yuan Shi laughed: "This is very good, our family has another relative."

As for the address, Nuan doesn't care, as long as everyone is happy.

"Nuannuan," Sanlang didn't know how many times he forked the hot and sour potato shreds into his mouth: "Where did this potato thing come from? Why have I never seen it before?"

"This potato is from Fanwai. My grandfather once treated a patient from Fanwai. The man had no money and gave this potato to my grandfather as a consultation fee. He also said that this food can fill the stomach and has a high yield. I I just kept some, and I don’t know if I can make a living?”

As soon as Wen Xingye heard his daughter's words, he became interested: "Nuan Nuan, did you still keep these potato seeds? Did you bring them out? Where are they?"

Nuan Nuan replied calmly: "I hid the remaining potatoes. It should be enough to plant a few acres of land. First, I will get the potato seeds back in a few days. Uncle and Uncle both planted them." Go up some."

Wen Xingzu and Wen Xingjia said excitedly: "In the next few days, we will drive more places."

Their allotted land has not yet been opened, and the previous ones have been planted with vegetables and wheat. They have been busy cutting down trees to make tables, benches and beds these two days, so they have no time to open the land.

That's right, almost every man in Qing'ao Village can do some simple carpentry work, such as making tables, stools and bed boards, which are barely usable.

After all, potatoes are a side story, so Nuannuan doesn't want to be too conspicuous right now: "Let's try planting them in the yard first?"

"Okay, if it can be planted, let's plant some more next year." Wen Xingye already had an idea in his heart.

A few days later, Nuan Nuan went out for a day and justifiably took out the sprouted potatoes thrown on the black soil side from the space.

It’s just that no one has ever planted potatoes, and Wen Nuan, a later generation, will only eat them but not grow them. Wen Xingye tried to loosen the soil after setting up a field in the yard, dig a hole, and sprinkle plant ash into the hole. As the base fertilizer, cover the fertilizer with soil before putting the germinated potatoes into the pit, and finally cover with thin soil.

I don't know if it's because the potatoes are a thing of space, and their vitality is tenacious, or because Wen Xingye has enough experience, the potatoes planted in four or five days will grow seedlings.

Wen Xingye and his two older brothers were happily discussing the management of the land beans in the future. In order to accumulate enough fertilizer, the several families went up the mountain to cut firewood or cut the mangoes in addition to busy work in the field.

The Osmanthus japonica is used as firewood by the common people in Zhongzhou. The Osmanthus japonica is dried and burned very vigorously. The ash after burning is used as fertilizer for crops, and the crops grow very well.

The old lady had nothing to do at home, so she took Shiro Goro to dry the Osmanthus osmanthus harvested from several families and wrapped them in balls, which was convenient for burning.

Deng Shi had already finished what Nuan Nuan wanted, and Nuan Nuan was busy until his father and two uncles were about to fertilize the potatoes before taking the time to send the wages to Deng Shi.

"Qi'er, Shiro Goro, here are a few sand tables for you." Nuan Nuan called the three children to him, "Qi'er, first teach them to read and practice strokes with the sand table. My eldest brother and third brother taught them to practice calligraphy with a brush."

She doesn't write well with a calligraphy brush, so she won't make a fool of herself, so as not to teach the child crookedly.
