Dressed as a farmer's widow, she brought her daughter to stock up on food and reached the top
Chapter 46 Planting Sweet Potatoes
"I've never asked you to do any work in all these years, and it's all because I love you! You idiot, you brain-chopping bastard!"
Wang Fuping's strong and powerful hands, like pig's trotters, gently patted Ma Ergun's thin chest. This light pat was like an earth-shaking blow to Ma Ergun.
"Cough... cough..." Ma Ergun was knocked to the ground by a palm. He married this woman who was more powerful than a man because he was poor. He didn't expect that this woman could not be beaten at all. The main reason was that he could not win. He was so angry about the rice exchange incident today that he started a fight.
Ma Ergun looked at his son who was standing by and watching the excitement: "Do you want to watch your father get beaten to death?"
Ma Xiaolong looked at the half bag of milk apples on the table. He and his mother had picked them up the mountain together. They could have been exchanged for a pound of rice, but his father made a fuss. Now, not only can he not exchange them this time, he will never be able to exchange them in the future.
He carried half a bag of milk fruit into the kitchen and glanced at Ma Ergun, who was pinned to the ground. "Dad, don't you envy your uncle's family? Now your uncle and your third uncle have switched to rice, and our family is the poorest."
Hearing his son also complaining about him, Ma Ergun was completely discouraged and could only remain silent and swallow his anger.
What a sin! Zhou Dazhu, I don’t believe you!
……
The seventh and sixth brothers walked around the ox cart parked in the dam.
"Hahaha...we have an ox cart at home..."
"I want to ride in the bullock cart, too. Mother, give me a hug."
Xiuying picked up the sixth and seventh brothers and put them on the ox cart.
The fourth brother touched the ox's head,
"Mother, is this cow really ours?"
Xiuying smiled and said, "Of course this is ours. We will use it to transport rice to the village in the future. This cow was originally lent to us by Laifenglou to transport rice. Thinking that we would need it in the future, I bought it for one or two taels of silver.
Lamei, from now on this cow will be handed over to you."
The fourth brother stroked the cow and nodded, "Don't worry, mother. I will take good care of the cow. I will cut grass and feed it well."
As the fourth brother said this, he carried the basket on his back and went to the back mountain.
When the eldest and second sons heard that it was their own cow, they gathered around. At first they thought it was borrowed by their mother, but they didn't expect it was bought.
This is the first cow in the whole village, their family’s cow. The daughters are not only happy but also proud, because this is a cow that grandma’s family doesn’t even have!
While watching the children amusing the cow, Yang Xiuying put the sweet potatoes bought from the mall into the basket. These ready-made sweet potatoes can be used as seeds. After they grow sweet potato vines, they can be distributed to the villagers to plant.
The trick to growing sweet potatoes is to use a handful of ash for one sweet potato, and a pile of ash for a big pile.
Sweet potatoes can only be grown once a year in the north, but in the south where the climate is humid and warm and there is sufficient sunlight, they can be grown twice a year.
If we plant all the sweet potatoes in this basket now, we should be able to plant two mu of land. If we plant them now, we can harvest them in June.
One acre of land can produce about 4500 kilograms of sweet potatoes, and two acres of land can produce about 9000 kilograms of sweet potatoes.
Thinking about the harvest of more than 9000 kilograms, Yang Xiuying became worried. The storage function of the mall can not only store things, but also prevent food from rotting and spoiling. The harvested grain in the future can be stored in it, and the money earned can also be placed in it.
The mall's storage function is not only quality-assured but also safe, but it requires activation.
Yang Xiuying sighed. She was too poor.
When the daughters saw Yang Xiuying cutting sweet potatoes, they all gathered around.
Looking at her daughters' bright eyes staring at her, she felt so happy at that moment. It was so great to have daughters.
"Mother, this was dug up by my second sister on the mountain."
"My eldest sister said, feed it to the chickens first, and then we can eat after the chickens are fine."
"Mother, be careful, it's poisonous..."
……
The fourth child cut half a bamboo basket of grass in the back mountain, and when he came back he saw his mother and sisters gathered around the chicken coop.
I fed the chickens just before going out. Are they hungry again?
The fourth child ran over and heard Yang Xiuying say to the sisters, "Look, it's not poisonous. It's edible. I think it might be some kind of food that hasn't been discovered yet."
You see, its skin is red, so let’s call it sweet potato, okay?”
Pomegranates and peach blossoms applauded
"Okay, the name my mother gave me sounds nice, let's call her Sweet Potato."
"From now on, we'll have one more kind of food."
Pomegranate and peach blossom smiled at each other
This is the food in the treasure, it is called sweet potato.
After confirming that the sweet potatoes were not poisonous, the seven little ones cheered again.
"Mother, are you cutting so much to make it for us to eat?"
"What does this smell like?"
Yang Xiuying took out a sweet potato that had not been cut into pieces, peeled it and cut it into seven small pieces, and gave them to her seven daughters.
"Try it."
The daughters looked at the small piece of sweet potato in their hands and took a bite
Eyes lit up
"It's sweet."
"crispy."
"Really delicious!"
Yang Xiuying pointed to the sweet potatoes in the bamboo basket and said to her daughters, "Let's plant these. Then we'll have more sweet potatoes than we can eat anymore."
Shi Liu took the bamboo basket and volunteered: "Mom, I'll plant these."
"Second sister, I'll go help you."
The third sister followed. She wanted to help her second sister plant the sweet potatoes as soon as possible so that the family would not have to worry about food in the future.
Taohua looked at the stove in the dam: "Mom, you are tired, I will make lunch. Let's make some pancakes and boil some porridge. What do you think?"
When Yang Xiuying heard Taohua talk about cooking porridge, she immediately thought of sweet potato porridge, fried sweet potato cakes, and roasted sweet potatoes.
Thinking of the delicious food, Yang Xiuying swallowed her saliva and said to Taohua, "Mother, let me help you make it."
She said to the remaining daughters, "Fourth child, take your sisters and go feed the chickens and cows in the chicken coop. Mother will call you when dinner is ready."
"Okay, mother!" The fourth sister's favorite thing was to take care of the livestock. Holding a bamboo basket, she called to her younger sisters, "Let's go and feed the chickens, ducks, and cows with Fourth Sister. We need to fatten up the livestock."
"Let's go!"
"I want to feed the bunny."
After the little girls left, Xiuying bought some sweet potatoes from the mall and gave them to her eldest daughter.
"Taohua, peel and wash these so that Mommy can make you a delicious sweet potato feast."
Taohua was happy when she heard that her mother was going to make a sweet potato feast. This was food from the treasure, and it must be delicious when cooked.
Yang Xiuying cooked rice porridge in a big iron pot. After Taohua cut the sweet potatoes, she put them in to cook. She also took a few more and put them on the stove.
Cut the washed sweet potatoes into small cubes, coat them with flour, add some salt and pepper, and fry them in a frying pan until slightly yellow. Then turn them over and fry them on the other side. After frying, place them on a plate aside to cool.
In the big iron pot, bubbling sweet potato rice was cooking. In another pot, Xiuying cooked a few frozen steamed buns bought from the space, filled with red bean paste.
