There were already a lot of tomatoes in the field. Sui He took a pair of scissors and cut them one by one with the stems, and put them in the basket.

I didn't cut the whole bunch of old rice, mainly because some of the top ones were not so mature, so I left them for a few more days.

"Suihe girl, what are these?" Old Ning picked one up and looked at it carefully.

"This is a tomato. Try it. It's edible." Sui He said without turning his head. He cut off one and put it in his mouth. The extremely sweet tomato exploded in his mouth.

When Ning Lao saw Sui He eat one, he also put the tomato into his mouth doubtfully and bit it open. The small tomato was much sweeter than the big one.

Suihe ate a few and then stopped eating. He had to eat lunch at noon, so he stopped eating.

Mr. Ning liked it very much and even ate several pills.

"Pah, pah, pah, why does it taste different?"

Following the sound, I saw Mr. Ning holding a green tomato.

"They are green and not ripe. How can you eat green tomatoes when there are so many ripe tomatoes to eat? And unripe tomatoes are poisonous."

"What? Poisonous?" Hearing that green tomatoes were poisonous, General Ning threw away the tomatoes in his hand and said, "Why did you grow them if they were poisonous? I just ate them. Will I be poisoned to death?"

"Unripe tomatoes are poisonous, and the toxicity is not serious. At most, you will have diarrhea or something." Sui He did not stop moving his hands: "What you just ate was a ripe tomato. It's okay, just don't eat too much."

Hearing Sui He say that he shouldn't eat too much, Ning Lao's heart, which had just been relieved, suddenly became tense. He probably didn't eat too much just now, right? "What will happen if I eat too much?"

Sui He did not answer. The basket was full and it was time for her to go home. After putting away the scissors and getting up, she saw that Mr. Ning was still struggling, so she replied, "If you eat too much, you will feel full."

"If you eat too much, you will feel full?" Old Ning muttered these two sentences, and then reacted in the next second. Nonsense, what food can't make you feel full if you eat too much? This is just nonsense.

Seeing Sui He walking away, Ning Lao followed him with half a basket.

As soon as Sui He got home, the carriage from Tongren Restaurant arrived. Sui He had asked someone to bring a message to Manager Li early in the morning, saying that Sui He had found something new and asked him to come over. As soon as Manager Li heard the news, he rushed over without stopping.

"Shopkeeper Li" Suihe walked up with a basket

"Suihe, do you have any good stuff?" Shopkeeper Li jumped out of the car, walked in front of Suihe, and looked at the tomato in Suihe's hand curiously.

"Of course, there are good things." Sui He lifted the basket and said, "Let's go in."

"Okay," Shopkeeper Li responded, and followed Sui He into the yard. Sui He placed the tomatoes by the water, washed some, and put them on a plate: "Shopkeeper Li, have a try."

Shopkeeper Li picked up one and put it in his mouth: "Not bad, crisp, sweet and juicy, suitable for making a fruit plate"

"Is that good? You're too easily satisfied, aren't you?" Sui He smiled. She was satisfied with just eating a raw tomato. When she made a tomato dish later, wouldn't it be enough to astonish them?

"Oh? Is there another way to eat Suihe?" Shopkeeper Li understood what Suihe meant.

"Of course, just wait. By the way, think about whether you have enough money on you. After all, my things are not cheap." Sui He picked up the remaining tomatoes and smiled at Manager Li with an ambiguous smile.

"Okay, as long as it's worth it, I can give you as much as you want." Shopkeeper Li was very confident. It's just a kind of fruit, how expensive can it be?

Sui He looked at Shopkeeper Li and smiled confidently. He stopped talking and went into the kitchen.

She had to make the tomato sauce first. She boiled a pot of water in a pot. When the water boiled, she scooped the water into a bucket and poured the cherry tomatoes in. After the tomatoes boiled in the water for two minutes, she took them out and peeled them while they were still hot.

Then chop it up with a knife, pour it into the pot and simmer it slowly over the fire. Suihe asked Dazhuang to make her some maltose two days ago. She wanted to try whether maltose could be used instead of rock sugar.

Put sugar into the pot and stir while cooking until the liquid in the pot gradually becomes thick. Use a spoon to crush the large pieces of tomatoes in the pot. Then take out a bowl and scoop the cooked tomato sauce into the bowl.

Tomato sauce is ready and can be used in many dishes

Take out a piece of tenderloin, cut it into thin slices, and use it to make tomato pork, tofu in tomato sauce, and of course the indispensable artifact that goes well with rice, scrambled eggs with tomatoes

As the tomato dishes were served, Shopkeeper Li stared at them.

"Suihe, this is too spicy, I can't eat it." Shopkeeper Li held Suihe. Suihe was a little surprised, but then he realized, "Don't worry, Shopkeeper Li, this is sweet and sour, not spicy."

Shopkeeper Li looked at the plates of red tomato dishes. The Mapo Tofu in their store was this color and spicy. He could only eat a few bites.

"Don't worry, Shopkeeper Li, this tomato is really not spicy." Grandpa sat at the table and explained to Shopkeeper Li.

"Grandma went to call Doctor Ye, why hasn't he come yet?" Sui He put the dishes on the table. Because Old Ning was here, Doctor Ye would come over whenever he had nothing to do. After a while, the three old men became familiar with each other. They would play chess, chat and drink tea together whenever they had nothing to do. Doctor Ye also had dinner at Sui He's house several times.

After making something delicious today, grandpa asked grandma to call Dr. Ye to come over for dinner, since Dr. Ye was alone anyway.

"You're almost back." Old Ning also sat at the table, looking at the dishes on the table curiously. These were all things he had never seen before.

"Come on, come in and sit down." Just as she finished speaking, grandma and the others came back, followed by Doctor Ye.

"Brother Chen, look, I have to trouble you again." Doctor Ye said to Grandpa as soon as he came in. The next moment he saw Shopkeeper Li: "You have guests?"

"This is Shopkeeper Li, we are all acquaintances, come and sit down together." Grandpa invited everyone to sit down together: "Come and try it, this is a new dish that my family makes every year, everyone try it"

"Okay." At the invitation of grandpa, several people started to eat. Except for Mr. Ning, who was a stranger, Manager Li had seen the others before, so he was not shy. Even if he was a little shy at the beginning, it disappeared as he ate the tomatoes.

White rice with scrambled eggs and tomatoes. Suihe ate two bowls of rice. There were many people today, so they steamed more rice. As a result, not only Suihe ate a lot, but the others also ate a lot.

"Suihe, I know why you asked me if I had enough money." After eating, Shopkeeper Li wiped his mouth and held his stomach contentedly. Every time he came to Suihe's house, he would eat too much, but not when he went back. It was really strange.

"How are you going to sell it this time? Will it be the same as before, where you plant and I harvest?" Shopkeeper Li, who had tasted tomatoes before, could already imagine that their Tongren Restaurant would once again make a fortune from tomatoes. The last time they made a fortune was because of tofu.

"This time, I don't plan to do it the same way as before," Sui He said calmly. Tomatoes are different from tofu. Anyone can grow tomatoes as long as they have seeds. Tomato seeds are also easy to get. So this time Sui He doesn't plan to take a share of the profits like before. It's too troublesome.

Moreover, relying on the share of tofu, Suihe's family is already very wealthy. There are only three people in their family, and it is a worry to have so much money and not know how to spend it.

Shopkeeper Li paused for a moment, then asked, "So how do you want to cooperate this time?"

Sui He looked at Shopkeeper Li and told him his plan: "This time, I plan to sell you all the seeds, recipes, and planting methods."
