Crossing the wasteland: Farming and peasant girls can't be provoked

Chapter 27 Growing Vegetables
After taking Xiao Yilin's pulse, Jing Yi gave Xiao Yilin's master and servant a reassurance, "Young Master Xiao's health has improved a bit, and his life will not be in danger for the time being. As long as he gets a good treatment in the future, he will get better soon."

Xiao Yilin's master and servant were all very happy when they heard this.

Gu Yu smiled brightly, "Master Chu is really a miracle doctor. My son's complexion has improved a lot just this night. Thank you so much, Mr. Chu."

Although Xiao Yilin didn't laugh out loud, the corners of his mouth curled up. This was the best news he had heard since he fell ill from poisoning, and it was also the happiest day.His body was saved, and he had a premonition in his heart that this young man would definitely cure him.

After coming out of the wing room, Jing Yi started to prepare breakfast.A piece of flour specially reserved by Jingyi before has been fermented, and it can be used as a noodle starter to make steamed buns.

Last night, Jingyi mixed a large pot of noodles with flour fertilizer and it was fully fermented this morning.In order to prevent the steamed steamed buns from becoming sour, Jing Yi also prepared a special plant ash water.After a night of precipitation, the plant ash water is also very clear, just right for use.

Plant ash contains alkali, and after soaking in water, the alkaline components will dissolve in the water, which is the most primitive alkaline water.Of course, the grass for burning plant ash is also selected, not just any grass will do.

In the morning, Jing Yi tried steaming a pot of steamed buns, and it was not bad. The steamed buns were soft and had a smell of flour.At this time, the flour is still relatively thick, and the steamed buns are not white, but a little yellow, but they are also very good.

Jing Yi also asked Qiao Yan to cook millet porridge, and she made some pickles and scrambled eggs.

The tonic that Feng Zhi brought back yesterday included bird's nest, Jing Yi made a bowl of bird's nest porridge for Xiao Yilin,

Steamed buns are soft and easy to digest, eggs are nutritious, and Xiao Yilin can eat them too.

Qiao Hong put down the food and said, "This is a new noodle dish made by my son, called steamed buns. Try it."

After Qiao Hong left, Xiao Yilin picked up a white flour steamed bun, broke off a piece and put it in his mouth. It was soft and delicious, with a sweet smell of flour, without any sour taste, it was really delicious.

Someone in the palace has also made this kind of pasta, but it has a sour taste. I don't know how this Mr. Chu got rid of the sour taste.

Xiao Yilin pointed to the steamed buns on the table and said to Gu Yu and Feng Zhi, "It tastes very good, you should eat it too."

Gu Yu took a bite of the steamed bun and nodded, "It's delicious. This steamed bun smells like a fragrance. This side dish is also delicious."

After breakfast, Xiao Yilin still happily drank the medicine that Jing Yi made for him.

After Xiao Yilin finished eating the medicine, Jingyi asked Qiao Hong to turn over the ground in the backyard, and then went into the mountain with the basket on his back.This time she picked some herbs and hunted some pheasants and hares.Go back and eat game again.

On the way home, Jing Yi saw a river not far away and walked to the river with a thought. She put down her back basket and put her hand into the water in a place with a lot of aquatic plants.

She directly used her ability to wrap a big carp with aquatic plants in the river, and then dragged the carp to her eyes, and she directly caught the carp up.

Using the same method, Jing Yi caught two big carps, and then carried the carps home with a few reeds on a string.

Qiao Hong saw that his son had harvested a lot again, so he took the things and looked at the two big carp and asked in surprise, "Master, where did you get this fish?"

Jing Yi said: "I caught it, there are many people in the family, you packed up the two fish, let's stew the fish for lunch."

Qiao Hong readily agreed and went to clean up the carp.

Jing Yi said that the herbal medicines collected from the mountain before should be dried and processed, and she saw that there were just a few kinds of herbs that could be used by Xiao Yilin.

There are a lot of herbs in this mountain, and she can often go to the mountain to collect herbs in the future.

Jing Yi went to the backyard to see how much Qiao Hong had turned over, and saw that the backyard had turned over, which was too fast.

She went back to the front yard and asked, "Qiao Hong, did you dig the ground in the back yard?"

Qiao Hong shook the water off his hands, stood up and replied, "Master, Brother Gu, Brother Feng and I dug the land in the backyard together. They watched me dig the land, and when they learned that you want to grow vegetables, son, they turned the land together with me." It's all over. They can do it much faster than me."

As soon as Jing Yi heard that it was true, she said that it was impossible for Qiao Hong to turn over the backyard in one morning by himself.

But now she can grow vegetables in the backyard.She can also harvest a batch of vegetables before winter comes.

She bought several kinds of vegetable seeds such as Chinese cabbage, spinach, radish, and coriander. She also has seeds of celery, rapeseed, and leek, which can be planted.Now that it's autumn, these vegetables should be harvested in winter, and the big deal is to use their abilities.I don't know how cold it is in winter here.

At noon, Jing Yi made delicious fish porridge for Xiao Yilin.The other fish were made into braised fish, and a circle of rolls was pasted on the side of the stewed fish pot.Some of the rolls soaked in fish soup in the pot are very delicious.Jing Yi asked Qiao Hong to cook rice because he was afraid that the staple food would not be enough.

However, the taste of braised fish without soy sauce is still inferior. Jingyi is eager to make soy sauce and miso.The soy sauce and miso she made before are still drying in the yard, because she started to use the power, now the miso is almost ready, and the soy sauce will have to wait for some time.

She didn't make much soy sauce before, and she plans to buy more soybeans and make a few more jars of soy sauce.After all, this daily cooking is inseparable from soy sauce.

Besides braised fish, Jingyi asked Qiao Yan to cook two more dishes.

Xiao Yilin ate fish porridge and also tasted braised fish, which whetted his appetite and ate a lot.But he didn't dare to eat the sticky paper, because it was harder, and he was afraid he wouldn't be able to digest it.

Gu Yu and Feng Zhi ate with gusto.None of the four members of Jing Yi's family eat as much as Gu Yu and Feng Zhi.

Xiao Yilin looked at the two subordinates who could eat so much and said, "Don't be idle all day, and do more work for the Chu family."

Feng Zhi nodded and said, "Master, we helped Qiao Hong turn over the backyard in the morning. He said his son wanted to grow vegetables. Don't look at this Mr. Chu, he knows a lot, even though he is young. He knows how to cook, and I don’t know what his family used to be like, to be able to teach such knowledgeable children.”

Gu Yu said: "Let's not worry so much, as long as Mr. Chu can heal our son's body."

In the afternoon, Jing Yi started tidying up the vegetable bed and planting vegetables. Gu Yu and Feng Zhi followed suit after seeing it. They were responsible for fetching water to irrigate the field.Jing Yi is in charge of planting.

The seeds have been treated by Jing Yi with supernatural powers, and they will germinate soon after being planted in the ground.

Although she won't let the vegetables grow immediately, she will also properly speed up the growth of some vegetables without being suspected.

With the help of Gu Yu and Feng Zhi, the vegetables in the backyard were all grown in one afternoon.Because of solar terms, Jingyi also planted Chinese cabbage, spinach, radish, coriander, leek, rapeseed, celery and other vegetables.

Most of these are leafy vegetables, which can be eaten when they grow up.She is also planning to dig a cellar to store vegetables in the future.

Now there are two strong laborers Gu Yu and Feng Zhi, just let them contribute.

There are no crops such as potatoes and corn here, so she will pay more attention to alien species in the future.

Jingyi plans to optimize the seeds of wheat, rice, soybeans and other food crops, at least to increase the production of these grains.
