Exile at the beginning: farming with power space

Chapter 222

Qi He and Meng Yuluo also came to help. They brought a bucket of water, but even without Fu Xinci's hands, the two boys watered the sweet potato seedlings.

Fu Xinci sighed secretly: "It's good to have friends."

Holding the basket of sweet potatoes, I followed my grandfather out of the greenhouse, and Grandpa Meng carefully fastened the door of the greenhouse.

Back at his grandfather's house, Fu Xinci personally found a very small clay pot, similar to a jar for mashing garlic.

Wash it, fill it halfway with clean water, and take another sweet potato that she looks pleasing to the eye, wash it and put it upright in a clay pot, the water just covers half of the sweet potato.

"Ci'er, what is this for?"

"Grandfather, we grow sweet potatoes in water. As long as the house is warmer, the sweet potatoes will sprout and grow leaves in a few days."

Grandpa Meng's eyes lit up after hearing what his granddaughter said, "Ci'er, can we grow seedlings from sweet potatoes?"

"Yes."

"That would be great. Ci'er, should we get more pots to grow sweet potatoes? It looks green in winter, and when spring comes, we can plant sweet potato seedlings in the field to bear sweet potatoes. It's like killing two birds with one stone."

"Grandfather's idea is really good." Fu Xinci had never thought of this idea before.

Qi He, Meng Yuluo, and Yu'er kept listening with their heads tilted. They were already curious about the new food of sweet potatoes.

Now I heard Grandpa Meng say that I need to raise a few more sweet potatoes, so I became interested.

"Grandfather, I want to raise one too."

Qi He: He lives in the same room with Yu'er, so there is no need to talk about him.

Meng Yuluo: Brother Qi didn't say it, and he was too embarrassed to say it.

Grandpa Meng obviously saw what the two boys were thinking, so he said with a smile: "This is not easy to handle. We live in a human house and raise a sweet potato in a pot. After the sweet potato germinates and grows leaves, let's compare it." Let's see who's sweet potato seedlings grow well in that house."

"Hey, father's idea is very good. I'll take a sweet potato back and raise it." Fu Yu just came in from the outside, and immediately echoed what his father said.

And he picked the one in the basket, and took out the one he thought was the most satisfying.

Yu'er saw that his father had already acted, so he couldn't lag behind, so he hurriedly took Qi He's hand and passed by, and even knew to give some advice to Brother Qi: "Brother Qi, this looks good, let's take this two."

After Yu'er finished speaking, she went to hug the biggest sweet potato.

Seeing Yu'er's thoughts, several people held back their laughter, and no one spoke.

...

Because of the large number of people in the family, Mrs. Fang took Mrs. Zhong and Mrs. Tian to accumulate three large jars of sauerkraut.I was afraid that it would not be enough to eat in winter, so according to what Fu Xinci said, I accumulated a short jar of radishes.

Fang has never accumulated radishes before, and the method is the same as that of sauerkraut.

Seeing Fang looking at her suspiciously, Fu Xinci opened her mouth to explain her doubts: "It's what the grandfather said, the accumulated radish tastes sour, cut it into thin strips and fry it with hot oil, it's very refreshing to serve with rice."

After hearing her daughter's words, Fang also vaguely remembered what had happened.It's just that her grandfather and grandmother have passed away for several years, and she doesn't remember them, but her daughter remembers them at such a young age, and she blushes a little.

...

The weather is getting colder and colder, but the depression under Yingzui Cliff Guardhouse is no longer as bleak as in previous years.

Qi Yuanshan stood at the gate of the guard, looking at the big courtyard of Uncle Meng's house with great interest.

Not far from the yard of Uncle Meng's house, there were several small black dots constantly moving, and he could clearly tell which one was his son.

Alas, it's hard not to tell the difference, his son is like a follower, following behind the little girl.

However, he is also a little curious now. In this cold day, the children are not staying in the house. What are they digging outside? He wants to go and have a look.

Qi Yuanshan is also a man of action, since he thinks about it, he will do it. Anyway, there is nothing to do in the guard today, so he took out his bay red horse and went to Uncle Meng's house.

It wasn't too far away, when Qi Yuanshan rode over, he saw a few children digging wild leeks.

When Qi He heard the sound of horseshoes, he knew who was coming without looking. "father."

"What are you guys doing digging this thing up?"

"Grow it in a warm shed. Sister Fu said, so that during the Chinese New Year, you can make dumplings stuffed with leeks."

"Well, that's a good idea."

Meng Qitian suddenly asked his eldest niece, "Merciful, if this is planted in a broken earthen pot, can it be done next to a kang or a big stove?"

"It should be okay, but it's not green in summer, and it doesn't grow strong in summer."

"Then won't you delay cooking?"

"No delay."

"That's fine." Meng Qitian saw that his eldest niece said that he would not delay cooking, so he decided to dig more, and he also took some back and planted them in the broken pot.

Grandpa Meng stood at the door and looked at the children. When he saw Qi Yuanshan coming, he asked him to come in and sit down.

"It's okay, Uncle Meng. Today's weather is not bad. At least there is sunshine. I'll stay here for a while and go back."

"What are you doing going back so early? Tell Yu daughter-in-law later, make dinner early today, and you will go back after dinner."

"That's good." In Uncle Meng's house, Qi Yuanshan never regarded himself as an outsider.

Dinner is cornbread with cabbage stuffing. Qi Yuanshan only took one bite, and he felt the difference.

"Uncle, this corn noodle is delicious, and it doesn't make your throat loud at all."

"I also realized that the corn noodles my father bought this time are very good." Fu Yu also felt that the corn noodles were better than the previous corn noodles.

Fu Xinci didn't dare to say that it was made by the noodle grinder in the space, and it's not comparable to the stone mill here.

Grandpa Meng knew what was going on, so he continued, "Daughter-in-law Yu, let's make the noodles in a while, so I'll use these corn noodles to make steamed cakes tomorrow morning."

"I also want to eat hair cake." Fu Xinci also likes to eat corn flour cake.

"I like to eat it too. Qi He also likes to eat steamed milk cakes."

"Okay, I'll leave the dough after dinner, and I'll give you steamed cakes tomorrow morning."

Qi Yuanshan also likes to eat steamed cakes made of pure corn noodles, but he has been away from home for many years, and now his mother has also gone, so he can no longer eat steamed cakes made by his mother.

Grandpa Meng probably didn't expect that Qi Yuanshan would be sad once he just proposed to eat hair cake tomorrow morning.

At night, Fu Xinci entered the space, traded a lot of food for her friends, and then went back to sleep in peace.

This is the so-called family has surplus food and does not panic.

At night, everything was silent, and at some point, there seemed to be rustling sounds from the sky and the earth.

From far to near, the sound is getting denser.

"Squeak."

Fu Xinci was soundly asleep when she heard Xiaobai making noises in her ears.

Fu Xinci didn't open her eyes, but stretched out her hand, trying to push Xiaobai away, but her mouth was still dazed, and she muttered in disgust, "Don't make noise."
