Easy to farm

Chapter 5 Portable Farm
Seeing Yang's aggrieved face, Pei Xiangxiang would not know what to say for a while, so he simply came out of the room and asked Pei Yongping to accompany her.

There was smoke from cooking in the village, and there was a smell of vegetables in the air. Pei Xiangxiang only felt his stomach growling. Thinking that dinner was not yet available, he quickly moved all the vegetables in the corner into the kitchen, ready to cook.

Eyes fell on the orange saplings again, Pei Xiangxiang looked at the house again, thinking that it would be difficult to find a place to plant the saplings now, it would be better to put them in the space and plant them first.

Entering the space again, Pei Xiangxiang was stunned when he saw that the eggplants and peppers that were still in buds were now ripe, and even the tomatoes were all hanging red among the branches and leaves.

It took only two or three days before and after, and these things grew too fast.

Maybe he was hungry, after Pei Xiangxiang glanced back and forth on the vegetable field, his eyes finally fell on the tomatoes, then he walked over quickly, picked the one closest to him, rubbed it on his clothes, and bit into his mouth .

It was sweet, sour and juicy, with a very good taste. Pei Xiangxiang admired it as she ate it. After a while, she finished eating all the tomatoes. She was still a little unsatisfied, but she was not greedy.

After finding an open space, Pei Xiangxiang planted the orange saplings, then scooped up a handful of water from the nearby pond and poured them on the roots of the orange saplings.

After finishing it, Pei Xiangxiang looked at the vegetable field full of fruits. He was a little worried that if he didn't pick it for a few days, the vegetables would all be spoiled, so he quickly picked a lot of tomatoes and peppers.

Putting peppers and tomatoes in a basket, Pei Xiangxiang turned over the cupboard and saw some eggs inside, thinking that it was getting late, and it was too late to stew the radishes with bones, so why not make scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and then fry one Chinese cabbage.

Thinking of this in my heart, my hands started to get busy, and I couldn't comfort Yang, so I did something else, so that Pei Xiangxiang would feel better.

While Pei Xiangxiang was busy washing vegetables, Pei Yongping and Yang Shi were talking in the room, the two of them were quiet, obviously afraid that Pei Xiangxiang would hear, and Pei Xiangxiang didn't bother to eavesdrop on what they were saying.

After scouring the rice, I put it in the pot and prepared to cook, but when it came time to light the fire, Pei Xiangxiang was stumped. I was used to the gas induction cooker, and it took a lot of effort for Pei Xiangxiang to go back to cooking with firewood when I was a child.

Puffing out his cheeks, he blew on the fire in the stove vigorously, and the fire was sizzling, but as soon as Pei Xiangxiang stopped blowing, the fire seemed to be extinguished again. The fire was not big yet, but the smoke kept pouring out.

Pei Xiangxiang squatted by the stove and kept blowing, and then, unsurprisingly, he was so smoked that tears flowed down his face and he coughed continuously.

Hearing the noise from the kitchen, Yang Shi and Pei Yongping hurried out of the room, seeing Pei Xiangxiang pouting his buttocks and blowing air to make a fire, Yang Shi felt warm in his heart, thinking that her daughter was indeed mother's caring little padded jacket, but felt that she was not as good as her daughter Come, just listened to some gossip, so I hid in the house and ignored my husband and children's food.

Wiping away the tears on her face, Yang said, "Xiang'er, stand aside quickly, mother is here to cook."

"Well, it's fine if you have me and your mother, the injury on your head is still not healed." Pei Yongping was very distressed when he saw that Pei Xiangxiang was busy alone and his head was still injured.

Both Yang Shi and Pei Yongping spoke together. Pei Xiangxiang would be so smothered by the smoke, so he didn't refuse, stepped aside and wiped his tears.

The Chinese cabbage and tomatoes have been washed, and the eggs have been taken out. There are actually not many things left. However, when Mrs. Yang saw the tomatoes on the cutting board, she picked them up and looked at them for a long time, then asked Pei Xiangxiang, " Xiangxiang, what is this and where did it come from?"

When Yang asked such a question, Pei Xiangxiang was stunned. Tomatoes were familiar vegetables to her from modern times, but she never thought that there were no such creatures as tomatoes in this era.

But Pei Xiangxiang quickly realized, and said, "This is called a tomato. When I went to the vegetable field to get vegetables, I happened to meet a peddler asking for directions. I pointed him the way, and he gave me a few of these. , perhaps brought from outside."

Yang has no doubts about what Pei Xiangxiang made up on the fly. The shopkeeper is a person who travels around doing business with burdens. People from the south go to the north, and people from the north come to the south with special products. There are some things she doesn’t know. normal.

But after saying this, Pei Xiangxiang was immediately glad that there were no tomatoes here, because she suddenly remembered that it was only February, and it was not the time to eat tomatoes. If there were really tomatoes here, if Yang asked, her lie would be exposed.

As soon as he thought of tomatoes, he immediately thought of peppers. Peppers were also not a dish at this time, and Pei Xiangxiang picked a lot of them. If Yang and the others found out about this, Pei Xiangxiang really didn't know how to explain it.

When picking the tomatoes and peppers and bringing them out, Pei Xiangxiang really didn't think about it. All she thought about was that this small vegetable patch could provide a lot of vegetables for the family, but she forgot how to explain how these vegetables came from.

Yang looked at the tomato she had never seen before, looked suspiciously for a long time, and then said, "In the future, you can't take other people's things casually. It's not easy for those peddlers who carry the burden to make some money, but just ask for directions. Where is the use of sending such things."

"Yeah, if you ask for directions in the future, you can't ask for things for nothing. It's not easy to make money these days." Pei Yongping is also an honest person. He thinks what Yang said is very reasonable. It is not easy for others to make money.

Seeing that they didn't continue to question and believed what he said, Pei Xiangxiang was relieved, thinking that the people here are really simple, if it is modern, the first sentence of the adults is probably not to talk to strangers, take things from strangers.

"Mom, I see. Let's make scrambled eggs with tomatoes today, and then stir-fry cabbage. The big bones will take a long time to stew, so save them for tomorrow."

As soon as she heard that eggs were to be used, Yang immediately asked, "Can this be fried together with eggs? The eggs are saved for next month, so they shouldn't be wasted."

For the people in Nanhe Village, eggs are not a simple food. Many people raise chickens, but they are reluctant to eat a single egg. They just wait to save enough and use it to visit relatives and friends, or send it to the town to sell for money .

"It must be delicious, parents and mothers, you can try it." Scrambled eggs with tomatoes is one of the few vegetarian dishes that Pei Xiangxiang likes.

Seeing Pei Xiangxiang's look of anticipation, Yang couldn't bear to let her down, and said, "Then let's fry this dish."

"Why don't I fry them? I asked the peddler how to cook the tomatoes." Pei Xiangxiang felt an urge to try.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, Yang waved her hand and said, "It's almost the same principle for cooking, so don't worry."

Yang Shi spoke very confidently. Pei Xiangxiang thought that scrambled eggs with tomatoes would be really easy, and it would be better if he didn't intervene, so he quickly hid the remaining peppers and tomatoes while Yang Shi and Pei Yongping were cooking.

　I also really want a portable farm where I can grow a lot of vegetables and fruits. I feel all kinds of excitement when I think about it~
