Go through the wild and seek life

Chapter 71 Salted Eggs (2)
And Rudama ate milk gourd and sweet fruit again.Presumably, this kind of fruit must have started to bear fruit after the flood receded after the rainstorm.

In other words, it should be counted as entering the fall now.So Rudama set the day when the flood completely receded as the day of autumn in the barbaric calendar.When autumn is over, she will have a complete wilderness calendar.So, should she also make a New Year's Day, Spring Festival or something?Rudama felt it was very necessary.

The stream gradually returned to clearness, and those big and small fish also appeared out of nowhere.Rudama feels that the stream water is safe to drink, but Ye is still fond of "distilled water".Ye is like a big child, he doesn't necessarily like the "distilled water" very much, but is very interested in the distillation process, Rudama is very speechless about this.

In the spring, the ginger that Rudama buried in the soil suddenly sprouted, which surprised Rudama very much.It had been planted for a long time without signs of growth, and she had forgotten about it.Unexpectedly, after the flood, it did not rot, but grew out.

Rudama felt that it was necessary for her to study the growth laws of plants in this world.

In their original world, winter is the time when plants hibernate, hiding their roots or seeds in the soil, waiting for spring to bloom.So in this world, do plants have two periods of dormancy?In winter, the weather is cold and freezing and cannot grow well, and in summer, rainstorms and floods cannot grow well.Therefore, the plants here choose to take root and germinate in spring or autumn. Then, for plants, the season here should be divided into a growing season and a dormant season.

And each season here has about [-] days, and these [-] days can completely cover the three seasons of spring, summer, and autumn in my original world.This time is long enough to complete their growth cycle.

After Rudama conducted a reasoning study on the growth of the plants here, he entered the practical investigation.

Rudama is not familiar with plants such as roots and tubers. She wants to find some normal plants that can flower, bear fruit and sow seeds for research.

Of course, the first step is to find the seeds.

So, on this day of autumn, Rudama begged Ye to take her into the forest.

Almost all the fruits that completed the growth cycle in spring were knocked down by the heavy rain. Rudama took a small stick and rummaged through the soil and rotting leaves for a long time, but she didn't find a single seed, which made her very depressed.

But she found a lot of "potatoes".After seeing the complete plant, Rudama discovered that this thing is not a tuber or root of the plant, but a fruit.

It is like a peanut. When the flower withers, it will plunge its head into the soil like an ostrich, and then slowly bear fruit.Rudama wondered if she should call this thing a "fallen potato," as in "groundnuts."

Rudama dug up many of these "potatoes" and went back.She felt that if this thing was planted well, there would be grain reserves for winter and summer.Regardless of whether it is dried in the sun or ground into powder, it is very convenient to store and not easy to break.The point is, this is a starchy food, so it's time!

However, for people like Rudama who died planting flowers, raising fish, bringing a puppy home, and being so sickly that he had to send it away, it is really difficult to develop breeding and planting.

Rudama counted on her fingers, and so far, the only thing she can keep alive is Ye Ye.

Uh……

Wait, it seems that Ye is the owner, hunting, fishing, boiling water, cooking, Ye has been raising her, okay!
Rudama shook his head, ignoring the question of who is the owner.

In order not to endure hunger, she must work hard and try boldly.

Taking these "potatoes" back, Rudama started her planting plan.

In the canyon, on the edge of the small piece of land where Ma Jiang was planted, she opened up a large "nursery" and planted these potatoes every half a meter.More than a dozen rows were planted.

Then Rudama did an arithmetic problem, counting according to ten rows, planting ten potato seeds in each row, and by the end of this growing season, if each potato seed can produce ten potatoes, then how old is she? Heap potatoes!

At this time, Rudama was no different from that peasant woman who carried a basket of eggs and only wanted to hatch chickens, the chickens laid eggs, and the eggs hatched chickens...to get rich.With a longing face and a silly look, she doesn't even think about whether she can make a living.

After planting potatoes, Rudama surrounded a fence with twigs and built a small fence gate, which looked like a small farm from a distance.Rudama nodded in satisfaction, yes!good!Ye's hands are getting more and more skillful.

Hehe, the judges guessed it right, the fences and fences are all made by night.Rudama was only responsible for moving his lips.

Then, Rudama came to visit diligently every day, watering and fertilizing.

cough!cough!As for what the fertilizer is, let's imagine for ourselves, anyway, it is organic.

After 30 days, none of the potatoes sprouted.Rudama finally couldn't bear it any longer, and dug up one to have a look—it was rotten...

Dig another one.

still sucks...

Rudama dug out all these potatoes, they were all rotten!
That is why ah?

In the big forest, if no one cares about it, it can grow well, but when it is brought back and someone takes care of it, it rots instead, and it is too bad to enjoy it!Rudama complained, could it be that these potatoes are destined to suffer, and they grow well after being left in the wild?

Uh……

Miss Dama, you are telling the truth.

The amount of watering and fertilization should be appropriate, too much is too much!Even if you bury an iron ball in the ground and water and fertilize it every day, it will rust and rot.

Rudama decided to try the "unfettered growth method".

She begged Ye to take her into the forest again, dug a lot of potatoes, and buried them in her small farm.I don't care about it, only six or seven days later, watching the soil dry up, I asked Ye to help water some water.After ten days like this, it actually germinated.

Rudama was very happy, and she found a new orientation for her wild life.The physical work such as going out to hunt should be left to Ye, who is strong enough to do it.

She stays at home, uses her brain, uses her mouth, and occasionally uses her hands to cultivate the land.After these things, Rudama felt that as long as he didn't make trouble for Ye, it was the best way to help him.So, why doesn't she be a "good wife" at home?

Pooh!Pooh!Thinking about it again, she and Ye are partners with a clear division of labor.

Rudama felt that his brain had been twitching badly recently, and he would associate her relationship with Ye as a couple at every turn.Could it be that she called it "loneliness syndrome"?
In the wilderness, she and Ye are the only two people, the relationship is too close, so she...
