Chapter 36 Mother and Daughter Planting Vegetables
"You..." Mother Zhao was furious, but she didn't know how to scold Yang Xiuying.
Yang Xiuying didn't want to argue with Zhao's mother any more. She had a lot of things to do today, so she waved her hand and said, "Mother-in-law, you should take care of your own family. Since our second house has been separated, you won't have to worry about it.
"Goodbye!"
Mother Zhao never thought that Yang Xiuying would dare to treat her mother-in-law like this. If she hadn't caught her, she would have let those people in the village judge the matter. Mother Zhao left in anger.
When Tian Guilan returned home, she saw the rage on Zhao's mother's face and had no place to vent it. She took the opportunity to fan the flames and said, "Xiuying is different now. Not only has she separated from the family, she also has her own house. Now the people in the village listen to her so much. She might become the village chief in the future. How could she possibly listen to you like before?
Alas, I am the only one who can be filial to you."
After hearing what Tian Guilan said, Zhao's mother became even more angry. If she couldn't control Yang Xiuying, how could her eldest daughter-in-law listen to her in the future? After Yang Xiuying separated from the family, she felt that her eldest daughter-in-law did not respect her as much as before.
What she had to do now was to make an example of someone.
She glared at Tian Guilan and said, "I'm going to find Zhou Dazhu. This little bitch actually dared to ignore me, her mother-in-law. I'm going to show her what will happen to her in this village if she loses the protection of our Zhao family."
Zhou Dazhu's wife Hongmei is Zhao's mother's distant cousin. The two married into Futian Village and have some friendship.
Her mother walked towards Zhou Dazhu's house with a smug look on her face. Not only did she want to prevent Yang Xiuying from exchanging rice and keep her family's rice, she also wanted to let Tian Guilan see the consequences of offending her mother-in-law. This was called killing two birds with one stone.
After breakfast, Xiuying called her daughters together. The vegetable seeds that the fourth daughter had exchanged for were not many last time, and they had already been planted in the open space behind the house. This amount of vegetables was definitely not enough for the eight of them.
When she was in China, Yang Xiuying had always dreamed of a pastoral life. Now that she had her own land and the seed section in the mall was open, she wanted to plant all the land she could.
"Where are the third and fourth children?"
Looking at the daughters standing in front of me, there are now two less.
Taohua replied, "My third and fourth sisters went to the mountains to pick wild mushrooms and dig black truffles. The rest of us stayed behind to plant the vegetables."
Shi Liu continued, "We were afraid that if we left, grandma would come and bully you again, so we sent our third and fourth sisters."
There are many sisters in the family. If grandma and aunt come, the sisters can help hold them back and prevent grandma from getting hurt.
When Zhao's mother left, she was furious. The maids saw it and then decided to let the third and fourth daughters pick wild mushrooms and black truffles.
The fourth brother is more familiar with the location of the black truffle, so he asked the third brother to follow so that the two sisters can take care of them in case anything happens.
Yang Xiuying looked at the sisters and asked, "Have you chosen a place to grow vegetables? It's best if it's close to home so that it's more convenient when you want to eat something."
Shi Liu thought of the spring behind the house and said, "Mother, there is a piece of open space below the spring behind our house. The soil there is fertile and perfect for growing vegetables."
Taohua also thought of the piece of land. She had noticed it when her mother was using the treasure there before. The land was not only fertile, but also close to the water source, which made it convenient to irrigate. The most important thing was that it was below the water source, so there was no need to worry about polluting the water source. If she wanted the vegetables to grow well, she would definitely apply some farmyard manure.
"Well, let's go to that field together. Bring a hoe."
The two older ones, Taohua and Shiliu, each took a hoe and followed Xiuying out.
When the house was being built, Xiuying had checked the soil on the land, but she didn't expect her daughter to have seen it too.
When they arrived at the vegetable garden, the little ones started busying themselves without waiting for Xiuying to give them any tasks.
The eldest brother used a hoe to weed, the second brother fluffed up the soil, the fifth brother used the loosened soil to dig a small hole, the seventh brother put vegetable seeds in the hole, and the sixth brother filled the hole with the seeds.
Several young girls smiled brightly as they looked at the vegetable seeds they had sown.
"Mother, we've planted a lot of vegetables. When they're ripe, we'll dry them and store them."
"Yes, with these vegetables we will have food to eat in winter."
"There are cabbage, radish, spinach, blood lettuce, chili peppers, and green onions..."
"By the way, what are these? Why haven't I seen them before?"
Taohua took a look and found that those were all bought by A'niang from the space. These vegetables were naturally not available here, but A'niang said that these vegetables had high yield and were very delicious.
Xiuying smiled and said, "These are the seeds I bought from merchants outside the Great Wall when I went to the city last time."
The daughters nodded.
The chickens that A Niang bought from merchants outside the Great Wall last time grew very fast and were full of meat. The eggs they laid were also bigger than those of the chickens at home. I think the vegetables will grow well too.
The daughters admired their mother more and more.
Their mother was really capable. She could even buy chickens and vegetable seeds from outside the Great Wall.
Lao Wu looked at the vegetables and said with some regret, "It would be great if we had some broccoli. We can grow them all year round and harvest them every month or so. That way we can have fresh vegetables in the winter."
Lao Liu also lamented, “Chicken feather vegetables are easy to grow and take care of. After planting them, just cut off the leaves that grow on them. You don’t need to dig the soil and plant again next year.
Back when I was at Grandma's house, my fourth sister also planted a lot of it, but unfortunately after the family split up, we couldn't take some of the greens with us."
Fresh broccoli is stir-fried with some vegetable oil and chili peppers for a delicious and refreshing taste. It can also be made into a refreshing and fragrant soup. It can also be paired with a poached egg when cooking noodles for a nutritious and healthy meal.
Thinking of this, Xiuying swallowed her saliva. Compared to big fish and meat, she preferred to eat such side dishes.
"I'll go to the city tomorrow and see if I can run into those merchants from outside the Great Wall. If I do, I'll buy some if they have any."
The chicken feather vegetables in the mall only take eighteen days from planting to harvesting. Xiuying has already made up her mind and will just say that they are out of the competition.
It looked like she would have to bring some more vegetable seeds tomorrow. With so many people in her family, she needed to grow vegetables for every season. The vegetable seeds in the mall were all new varieties that had been cultivated, offering advantages in terms of yield, planting cycle, and soil requirements.
The younger daughters were very confident about this piece of grassland. They were determined to take good care of the vegetable garden as this would provide them with food for the winter.
Xiuying also joined the vegetable planting team, and the mother and daughter talked and laughed.
Xiuying was already planning to grow sweet potatoes. The air in Futian Village is humid, the climate is warm, and the winters are generally mild, which is perfect for growing sweet potatoes.
