cultivating immortals and planting the fields

Chapter 15 I want to cook something by myself

Zhang Weixi couldn't keep his mouth shut for the income from Xiaoqingcai, and the few fruit trees in the mustard space surprised him even more. They bloomed and bore fruit, and they appeared on the same tree at the same time.The fruit on this fruit tree is as big as an egg, but the pink and tender flowers on the tree are constantly blooming, and the fruit is constantly opening, blooming and bearing fruit.Zhang Wei's first reaction when he saw this situation was that the tree might really bear fairy fruit.One reaction is that there will be fresh fruits to eat every day in the future.

The resting soil covers the entire mustard space, a small pond with clear water and green lotus leaves covering it, and three fruit trees with lush leaves and branches on the resting soil.But looking at the remaining area, Zhang Wei felt that it would be a waste if he didn't plant something. As a farmer, yes, Zhang Wei already regarded himself as a farmer, so he should plant something. suitable?Of course it's grain, and there are farmers who don't grow grain... So, Zhang Wei planned to steal a few handfuls and sprinkle them into the soil to see the effect when Master Zhang was planting rice seedlings.Planting a fruit tree can bloom and bear fruit all year round, so what kind of rice can be grown?
The things in the mustard seeds are growing well, and the things in Zhang Wei’s backyard are also growing well. The watermelons and melons have already covered the ground, lush and full of vitality, looking extremely vigorous, with dozens of small pink flowers dotted among them , it seems that this piece of melon seedlings should be able to bear a lot of melons. Of course, this year I can also eat a lot of melons grown by myself. This is what Zhang Wei wants to say most.

However, these watermelons and melons, which have only seen flowers but have not yet seen fruit, are far behind cucumbers.

The two racks of cucumbers are full of hanging flowers and thorns, each one is as thick as a small rolling pin, and they can be eaten after not looking at them for two days, and some racks of the two cucumber racks have collapsed, Zhang Wei estimated Well, it shouldn't be a problem to pick a hundred and ten catties. If you touch it in your hand, each cucumber should weigh half a catty.

Zhang Wei casually twisted one off the shelf, wiped off the small flowers that hadn’t withered, and stroked off the thorns on it with his hands. Zhang Wei didn’t wash it, so he took a bite at any time, let’s taste something fresh first. It is the freshest and tenderest.At this time, most of the cucumbers that come off the market are plastic-covered cucumbers or cucumbers in greenhouses. Cucumbers that are really grown in the open air like this can only be removed from the shelves early after a few days.Who told Zhang Wei to have planting skills, no one would say anything if it was too early...

After a while, a big cucumber was swallowed by Zhang Wei in two mouthfuls.I didn't feel satisfied after eating one, but stopped after eating three in a row.The cucumber is crisp and delicious, but it feels a little astringent in the mouth.Not only thirsty, but also hungry, but it feels like people can't keep their mouths and want to eat a second one, and it's also appetizing.Well, this cucumber is delicious.Zhang Wei picked a few more casually, and planned to let Master Zhang make cold food today, and by the way, he would also satisfy Ke Ke's hunger. Did Zhang Wei know that the little girl was about to climb up the cucumbers just two days ago when she started to knead the cucumbers? To pick and eat.

Fortunately, Mr. Zhang saw it early. Even so, this little girl also grabbed a small cucumber with flowers on top of it, and gnawed it non-stop. How much more will the girl eat?Now even Zhang Wei ate three sticks before he shut up, let alone that greedy little girl.

Not only the little girl is greedy, but even the old man is also greedy. The two of them grabbed the cucumber brought by Zhang Wei and ate two cucumbers first. It's almost round, when did cucumbers taste so delicious?Seeing how the two of them were eating, Zhang Wei couldn't help eating one, and it tasted just as delicious.

The dish at night is naturally cold cucumber, crisp cucumber, scallions with strong flavor, fragrant rice vinegar, some sesame oil, and coriander, it tastes great.Zhang Wei ate two bowls of rice.

The food is full, Zhang Wei teases Ke Ke, the old man washes the pots and washes the dishes, he is really a father and a mother at the same time, it is not easy for the old man, otherwise, discuss with the old man to eat by himself, and live in the future It's long, it's embarrassing that this old man has eaten with the old man and still hasn't paid for the food.

"Master, I think I'll buy setware and cook for myself tomorrow, so I can clean it up by myself." Zhang Wei teased Ke Ke, and said it casually, as if he said it casually. Wei was about to cook and eat by himself, and was scolded by the old man.

The old man took a puff of cigarette, looked at Zhang Wei, paused for a while and said: "Okay, after a while, when the vegetables are sold out, there should be people coming to your place, and I, an old man who comes and visits, can join in and make progress." It's not a play."

"Master, you know I didn't mean that, I just" Hearing what the old man said, Zhang Wei felt that the old man was thinking too much.

Before Zhang Wei finished speaking, the old man interrupted Zhang Wei and said: "I know, in fact, our vegetables should sell well in the city. In the future, as long as you have the technology of vegetables like yours, you can grow There are many kinds of cucumbers, just like the cucumber you planted. Not only has it been taken off the shelf for several days in advance, but it also tastes good, and there are many knots. Now we can’t finish it, and tomorrow when Xiao Lei comes to pull vegetables Let him take it for a try. Although it may not be better than Xiaoqingcai, it may still sell for two dollars, which is better than losing it. I guess, as your Xiaoqingcai is sold in our provincial capital, you There are also frequent entertainments here. A few days ago, didn’t the bosses of several big restaurants nominate us to buy our dishes?”

"Master, they gave five yuan a catty, but I didn't sell them. We can't even supply Xiaolei's, let alone other people's." These people found Zhang Wei's place through the introduction of the village chief. , they couldn’t buy the food from the city, so they wanted to buy it directly from Zhang Wei. Although the price was two yuan more expensive per catty, Zhang Wei only needed to know one thing. Those who could buy vegetables were the ones that Uncle Sun thought should be If you sell it to them, you can't buy it, no matter how high the price is.

"Well, you are right about this. As a human being, we must not forget our roots. If there is no Sun family to promote and appraise us in the city, our vegetables will not be able to sell at such a good price. The village chief the day before yesterday I brought people to find me, but I didn't agree to sell it to them. So, you will have more entertainment in the future," the old man told Zhang Wei earnestly.The Zhang family can't do such a thing of forgetting their roots. If you do, then you will lose face as Zhang.The words are not unreasonable, but the truth is right.Zhang Wei nodded in agreement.

Don't look at Zhang Ye's usual joking and joking, but he thinks that no one has room for compromise when it comes to major issues.

Back home, Zhang Wei was also thinking about what Master Zhang said just now: "If you want to expand the planting area, your income will increase, but Zhang Wa only has this little flat land, and the rest are mountains and forests. The most important thing is that you have to find someone you trust to help you manage it. If you are not careful, you may let others know about your technology. Do you know that all eyes are on us in our village now."

Yes, there are people in the village who mosey to me every three days, and people come to see my vegetables every day. Even if I am stupid, I know that although these people are embarrassed to say what it is, it is nothing more than this kind of vegetable. Vegetable technology.

Fortunately, in this village, the only one who can be considered close relatives with Zhang Wei is Master Zhang himself.After thinking about it for a long time, I have no idea. It seems that I have to be more careful when spreading soil in the future.Although others can't get it, if people discover the weirdness in it, then it is trouble among troubles.
