Chapter 68 Sweet Potato Vine
Yan Yiyi left the toilet. Not only did Aunt Zhang and Aunt Qi sit down to cut the sweet potato vines, but Father Li and Uncle Zhang couldn't help but come over to help.
She stared at the sweet potato vines. If these vines were divided between two families, each family would be able to plant just one row of land. Moreover, she didn't like the taste of the sweet potatoes provided by Ni Ni very much, and was looking forward to the improved sweet potatoes that Yoyo would find for her.
"Aunt Qi, Aunt Zhang, take these sweet potato vines back and plant them." Yan Yiyi said.
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at her, and Aunt Qi immediately retorted: "How can this be? You don't have enough seeds!"
Yan Yiyi smiled. To them, sweet potatoes were a rare commodity, but to her, they were just a tool to seek benefits. Just as Youyou said, if she wanted to eat something, she could just go to them. Why bother looking for it so hard?
However, she has already taken root in this world, and her identity is that of an ordinary citizen as weak as an ant. The issue of paying taxes has made her deeply aware of the meaning of "the people should not fight against the officials". She does not want to be manipulated, and she must have the capital to negotiate with those in power.
In fact, she could also come up with the formula for gunpowder. It didn't require any high-tech skills. The recipe for homemade bombs could be easily found in the plane mall.
Gunpowder is undoubtedly a huge temptation for those in power. It has both advantages and disadvantages for them, and the disadvantages outweigh the advantages. It will bring endless troubles and put the cart before the horse.
Using agriculture as a stepping stone is undoubtedly the most appropriate. There is no actual physical harm either internally or externally. Moreover, a farmer in the countryside is not taken seriously by others. But this makes her famous here with the county magistrate.
The magistrate would certainly report to the emperor after harvesting such a high-yield crop. In this way, she would also leave her name in front of the emperor. After that, more and more high-yield crops would be produced, and her merits would accumulate, and she would be considered a well-known person in front of the emperor.
If the emperor had a discerning eye and a broad vision, he would at least grant her the title of county lord. For a woman, it was just an empty title, and those powerful people would not take her seriously at all.
But for her, this identity is a good protective umbrella in this small place. She can take advantage of the power of others. As long as there are no high-ranking officials with real power who want to deal with her, she can live a very comfortable life in this small place.
"Don't worry, we have enough. If it really doesn't work, don't we still have sweet potatoes? We can use those as seeds." Seeing that they were still in a daze, he opened his mouth again and again as if he wanted to say something to convince her, but he couldn't think of the words at the moment.
"Didn't Aunt Qi and Aunt Zhang Wu also give me vegetable seeds before? I didn't say anything polite to you. Why, I gave you some seeds, but you are being polite to me?"
Uncle Zhang Wu said weakly: "But these seeds are rare."
"Oh! What's so rare about it? I dug them all up from the mountain. I'll go see if there are any more some other day. If there are, I'll dig them up."
Thinking of the amount he had asked Yoyo to prepare, he added, "If you feel embarrassed, when I find it, you can help me carry it down and help cut the vines, how about that?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the three of them nodded in agreement, without considering whether there were any more problems on the mountain.
"Wife, when are you going? I'll accompany you."
Yan Yiyi's heart skipped a beat and she complained secretly: If you go, won't I be exposed?
"My dear, we still have to prepare the land for planting sweet potatoes. Tomorrow you and dad will go to the field together. Dad will help you weed. Don't work too hard.
I'll go look for it on the mountain, and come back to call you when I find it, so that we won't be delayed.
That place is quite far to go back and forth, it would take time if you come with me."
Seeing that he seemed to have something to say, Yan Yiyi didn't give him a chance to speak: "Listen to me, it's too late for us to plant sweet potatoes now, we can't delay any longer."
After hearing this, he had no words to refute.
I realized it later and thought: When did my wife become so good at farming? Especially the sweet potatoes that I had never seen before?
Could it be that my wife has recovered her memory?
He looked at Yan Yiyi carefully: It doesn't look like that. It probably just came to her mind suddenly, just like her medical experience.
After cutting all the sweet potatoes, they were in a hurry to take them home. They had chickens at home, and if they took them home, wouldn’t the chickens eat all of them?
Moreover, they had to pass by Shen Ye's house when they went to the fields, so it would be the same if they stopped by to pick up the sweet potatoes. Aunt Qi was fine, but Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang lived in the village. They took these things in and out, attracting the attention of the neighbors. They asked about the sweet potatoes, so should they tell them or not?
If you tell them, it will bring trouble to Aye and his wife; if you don't tell them, people will say bad things about you, and when you grow sweet potatoes in the future, they will come to make trouble for you. In the end, it will still cause trouble for Aye and his wife.
So, it’s good to put the sweet potato vines here.
"Aye, can you lend us your hoe?" Uncle Zhang couldn't help but go to plow the soil and plant sweet potatoes.
Yan Yiyi quickly dissuaded him: "Uncle Wu, it's so hot now. If you get sunburned, it won't be worth it. It won't be too late to till the soil later. You can let A Ye teach you how to plant before the sun goes down."
"Well, okay, I'll listen to Aye's wife." Uncle Zhang smiled naively.
The three families had dinner a little early today. After dinner, they picked up their hoes and buckets and went to the fields. Father Li followed them to watch the fun. Xin Ye taught them how to grow sweet potatoes.
With so many people, it only takes less than ten minutes to plant one ridge of land. After planting, just water it and it's done!
The next day, after breakfast, Xin Ye and Father Li picked up their tools and went to the fields to plow and prepare the soil. Aunt Qi, Aunt Zhang Wu, and Uncle Zhang Wu all came to help. Yan Yiyi carried a bamboo basket and a hoe and went up the mountain alone.
At this time, many villagers also came to the fields to weed. They saw Zhang Wujia and Qi Guafu helping Li Quezi with the work in the fields. They didn't notice anything strange about them, so they ignored it and turned to work in their own fields.
Yan Yiyi walked for nearly three hours and finally chose a flat place that she was satisfied with. The place was large enough and looked similar to the land at the foot of the mountain.
After resting for a while, he swung the hoe and started digging the ground, just like he was really digging sweet potatoes. He had to act completely well, otherwise he would be exposed if they came over.
After she finished digging, she still didn't get any news from Youyou. It was a rare occasion that she was alone, so she went directly to the trading platform to find some snacks to cook for herself.
However, after seeing the price above, I successfully dissuaded her from buying.
Instead, she went to her storage warehouse to look for the snacks she had bought with Youyou before, took out a bag of spicy strips and a bottle of Happy Fat House Water, leaned against a tree trunk, enjoying the cool breeze from the mountain in the hot weather, and then took out her mobile phone to watch animation.
--Comfortable!
This wait lasted almost two hours.
Lu Youyou sent a message, and the two of them completed the transaction. She reminded him, "I also bought you ten kilograms of sweet potato vines at the vegetable market. They are delicious when fried."
Yan Yiyi's eyes lit up: "This is great, thank you!"
It’s not that sweet potato vines are inedible, but the taste is not as good as the sweet potato vines that have been modified to be vegetables.
