Sweet baby milk, bring the whole family rich
Chapter 249 Natural Disaster
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was already November. The temperature in Beijing had plummeted, and the chill was overwhelming, as if winter had suddenly arrived overnight.
People wrapped themselves in thick clothes to keep out the cold, and Tiantian was no exception. She was wearing a thick cotton coat, and her round figure made her look like a cute little penguin from a distance.
However, the weather was not good and the northern region was suddenly hit by a snowstorm.
The heavy snow fell like goose feathers, covering the earth mercilessly.
This blizzard brought great disaster to the local area, especially those crops that were already difficult to grow, which were completely crushed and destroyed by the accumulated snow.
If this problem is not solved in time, the soldiers stationed on the border will face a serious food shortage crisis and may even lose their lives due to hunger.
When the Shangguan family heard the news, they were worried and depressed.
Because they have relatives guarding the border, if there is no supply of food and grass, the consequences will be disastrous.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the whole family was as heavy as ice in winter. Everyone was in a heavy mood and became silent.
Tiantian silently watched the anxious expressions of her family members, and suddenly an idea flashed through her mind - the potatoes planted in her own space might be able to solve the urgent problem!
These potatoes are not ordinary ones. They are carefully watered and cultivated with spiritual spring water.
Compared with ordinary potatoes, its growth cycle is greatly shortened.
Normally, it takes about two to three months for ordinary potatoes to be planted and harvested, but potatoes nourished by spiritual spring water can be mature and picked in just half a month.
"Grandma, I really have a way!" Tiantian tightly grabbed her grandmother Shangguan Qin's wide sleeves and said anxiously.
Shangguan Qin stared at Tiantian in front of her with a serious face and slowly said, "Tiantian, this is not a joke. Don't talk nonsense."
Although she knew that Tiantian was always very smart, she was only a two-year-old child after all. How could she expect her to come up with any brilliant ideas?
However, Tiantian saw that her grandmother didn't believe her, so she quickly turned to her personal maid Xiaoxia and asked for help: "Sister Xiaoxia, please go to the backyard and dig out some of the potatoes we planted together."
Xiaoxia nodded obediently and replied, "Okay, miss." After that, she hurried back to Qingxianyuan with light steps.
Not long after, Xiaoxia appeared in front of everyone again.
I saw her walking towards me quickly, holding a huge potato in each hand.
At this moment, everyone present couldn't help but stare at the object in Xiaoxia's hand with curiosity, secretly wondering what the origin of these unremarkable things was.
"What...what is this potato?" Shangguan Qin finally couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked first.
Seeing this, Tiantian quickly explained, "Grandma, these are potatoes. They're edible! Whether you boil them or stir-fry them, they taste great. And most importantly, they're very filling!"
Ouyang Qingfeng, who was standing aside, looked at the potato with half belief and half doubt, and still had reservations about what his little niece said.
Seeing this situation, Tiantian had no choice but to ask Xiaoxia to go to the kitchen and make some food with potatoes.
She thought to herself that as long as she put the real food in front of everyone, the truth would be self-evident, and everyone would wholeheartedly believe in the unique charm of these potatoes.
Hua Niang and Yun Tingluo had already experienced the wonderful taste of potatoes, so they were eagerly looking forward to the delicacies they would be able to taste later.
However, everyone else present was feeling nervous, not sure what they could do with this unfamiliar ingredient.
Just when everyone was thinking about their own things, Xiaoxia skillfully brought the carefully prepared dishes to the table one by one.
In an instant, a rich aroma of potatoes wafted into everyone's nose, making their mouths water and they couldn't help swallowing.
You know, Xiaoxia is always inseparable from Tiantian. Under Tiantian's careful guidance, her cooking skills have improved by leaps and bounds.
Especially for those dishes with potatoes as the main ingredient, he is very familiar with them and can make them look, smell and taste great.
Therefore, at this moment, Xiaoxia is very confident about whether everyone will like these potato-based delicacies.
At this moment, Shangguan Qin took the lead and picked up a handful of hot and sour potato shreds. After chewing them gently for a few times, Shangguan Qin's originally calm eyes suddenly lit up with surprise.
She never expected that these ordinary potatoes, which looked plain and ordinary, could be transformed into such a delicious dish that was sour, spicy, refreshing and pleasant after some skillful cooking!
Seeing this, the others couldn't contain their curiosity and appetite, and they all picked up their chopsticks and started to eat. For a moment, the table was filled with the sound of "slurping" eating, which was very lively.
Before long, the potato dishes on the table were swept away like a whirlwind.
Tiantian smiled contentedly as she watched the satisfied expressions on everyone's faces. Then, she walked briskly and proudly towards where her grandmother was.
"Grandma, now you should believe me, right?" Shangguan Qin gently stroked the sweet little head with a smile on her face.
Tiantian nodded obediently, blinking her bright eyes and saying, "Grandma, these potatoes are not only delicious, but they're also very useful here. But you're right, the environment in this frontier is very different from our home."
Tiantian knew very well that she had already prepared herself to deal with the harsh conditions here.
She waved her hand and decisively told Xiaoxia beside her, "Xiaoxia, quickly take out those potatoes you just threw into the stove."
After a while, Xiaoxia brought a few round, black things and put them on the table.
Then, Xiaoxia skillfully took out a sharp knife and carefully cut the baked potatoes into two halves.
Then she grabbed some bright red chili powder from a delicate little jar and sprinkled it evenly on the cut potatoes.
After finishing all this, Xiaoxia raised her head, smiled and said to Ouyang Qingfeng who was sitting at the table: "Master, come and try it."
Ouyang Qingfeng looked at the novel food in front of him with interest. After hesitating for a moment, he finally reached out and picked up a piece of baked potato, put it in his mouth and tried to take a bite.
