The Splendid Life of the Almighty Peasant Girl

Chapter 96 Digging Sweet Potatoes

The three of them walked up the mountain together, Liu Qingyang:

"Why did you come here too?"

Zhou Jingpeng:
"Their women are talking there, and I can't get in at all. What am I doing there?"

Liu Qingyang shook his head with a chuckle, and stopped asking.

Leisurely led the way, and within a short time, she found two sweet potatoes. She waved her hand and said:
"Come here quickly, here are two sweet potatoes, Brother Zhou, can you dig one?"

Zhou Jingpeng looked at his knife, nodded, and thought, I'm sorry, friend, I'm going to dirty you.

"Brother Zhou, dig carefully, don't damage it, there are several sweet potatoes underneath."

Zhou Jingpeng agreed, and dug with a knife. Looking at it leisurely, he was startled, and said quickly:

"Brother Zhou, this won't work, it will be damaged. Forget it, Brother Zhou, just help me loosen the soil around it."

Zhou Jingpeng had no choice but to turn over the surrounding soil, and watched leisurely as he finished turning over the surrounding soil before going over again, squatting down, and digging up with his hands.

Liu Qingyang quickly stopped:
"Of course, let your brother Zhou dig. Youran shook her head:

"Brother Zhou, I haven't seen this before, and he doesn't know how to dig it. Let me dig it."

As he said that, he started digging with his little hands, Liu Qingyang sighed, and knelt down to help dig with his hands.

"Brother-in-law Zhou, you don't have to do this."

"It's okay, can you let me, a big man, watch a kid dig."

Leisurely didn't speak anymore, she moved the sweet potato seedlings, and slowly planed with her hands along the grain.

"There seems to be something?"

Liu Qingyang felt that there was a hard object blocking him, and said.

"That's sweet potatoes."

This piece of land is actually quite dry. If it is not so dry, there is no need to dig it this way.

When the digging was almost done, Youran lifted it vigorously, and several sweet potatoes came out at once.

Liu Qingyang looked in shock, there are so many on one? "

He can't believe it:
"So many, so big, is this one?"

"Well, let's go home and let the eldest sister, that is, Sister Ting, let her bake it for us. My favorite is to bake it."

The three went directly to grandma Lin Qiuyue's house.

You Ting took the sweet potato and buried it in the fire without saying anything.

The food was ready, and everyone took their seats.

Finally, You Ting took out the sweet potato, and when she brought it over, the unique aroma of the sweet potato made You Ran hungry.

"Sister, give me one."

Leisurely grabbed one and put the left hand over the right hand, it was too hot.

Zhou Yueying smelled the smell, and he was already full, but suddenly wanted to eat again.

Because there were only a few, Youran took a small one, broke her own in half, and gave it to Qiqi.

This time the adults didn't eat, and only the children and the Zhou family ate.

Zhou Yueying's eyes lit up when she took the first bite, it was so fragrant and delicious, it was even better than the cakes from the pastry shop in Beijing.

"What is this? It's so delicious? I've never eaten it before."

"This is a sweet potato, which was discovered by Ranran."

Lin Qiuyue glanced at Youran, this little granddaughter is getting smarter and smarter.

You can always find something that no one else has.

At the beginning, she was worried whether it would be poisonous?Will it hurt your body?But then slowly, she also knew that this little granddaughter knew it in her heart.

"How do you plant this?"

"The book I saw said that you can cut a section and plant it, but I didn't read it very clearly.

It's a pity that the book is too broken, I flipped through it, and it was broken into pieces.

However, I wrote down some, this is a method, and another said to use this directly and let it germinate.

Although it can still be planted now, it may not grow too large when the weather is cold.

Regardless of whether he can grow too big, anyway, it can fill our stomachs. At least we can eat warm sweet potatoes this winter without worrying about being hungry. "

When Lin Qiuyue heard this sentence, she felt unspeakable guilt again.

"Okay, of course, I support you, and I agree to what you said."

Lin Hongsheng:
"What? Of course you can't ask others..."

"This is the secret between me and Ranran, isn't it?"

Liu Qingyang asked Lin Youran with a chuckle, the meaning in his eyes was self-evident.

You Ran also nodded with a smile:
"Yes, this is our secret."

Before returning, Liu Qingyang had already made an agreement with Youran.

Except for the ten acres of land set aside as a house, which fell under Lin Hongsheng's name, the rest of the land fell under Youran's name.

In other words, one mu of land and one house are not small.

But because Leisurely wants to grow things, it naturally needs a lot of space.

The other uncles, they have places they like, and she doesn't interfere.

Anyway, in their Lin Family Village, there are many mountains around them.

Before leaving, Liu Qingyang:

"I'll help you when I get back, and get things done as soon as possible."

Leisurely:

"Don't worry, it's impossible to plant anything else this year anyway."

"Didn't you say you want to grow sweet potatoes?"

Leisurely:

"I really want to grow sweet potatoes, but there are only a few sweet potatoes, so few, I can't grow so many."

Liu Qingyang chuckled lightly:
"It doesn't matter whether you plant or not. We will implement the matter as soon as possible, so as to avoid trouble later."

This is true, no one can guarantee that if someone suddenly buys it one day, it will be troublesome.

The first thing Liu Qingyang did when he returned to the government office was to talk to the magistrate about it, and he also took a sweet potato, which he specifically asked for from Youran.

Originally, Lei Ran wanted to give her a few more, but he said that there were only a few in total, so wouldn't there be fewer seeds to plant by then?
The magistrate's surname is Liang, Mr. Liang looked at this ugly thing and said:
"Is this really as delicious as you said?"

Liu Qingyang nodded:
"Of course, my lord, don't look at its ugly appearance. When it's cooked, it tastes really good, even better than dim sum."

Lord Liang shook his head:

"Would you like to boil it or steam it?"

"It's all right, you can also bake it, but I still like to bake it, it's more fragrant and delicious."

Lord Liang raised his eyebrows:
"So you've already eaten?"

Liu Qingyang laughed:
"I've eaten it. To be honest, I regret eating so much now, because there are not many trees in total. In the end..."

"That's fine, since you said it's delicious roasted, then we'll eat it roasted, how should we roast it?
Can it be the same as grilled fish?Pierce it with a branch and bake it? "

He pinched the stiff one, which might not feel comfortable to wear.

Liu Qingyang shook his head amusedly:

"No, just put it in the fire, which is when we cook and throw it in, and bury it."

"So simple?"

"It's that simple?"

"Okay, then I'll let someone bake it."

Then, he told the people around him to take the things to the kitchen.

"Qingyang, seeing your radiant face, you should be having a good few days."

"Hahaha, indeed, my lord doesn't know. I have eaten things that I have never eaten before in the past few days. Everything makes me linger. If it wasn't for that little girl asking me for something, I think, I should have another meal." Will be back in a few days."
