Chapter 18 Growing Vegetables
Half an hour later, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law brought the prepared lunch to the main room. The adults and children in the family sat at the dining table, looking at the pot of fragrant braised pork, and everyone drooled.Xiaoliu was so greedy that his mouth watered.

At noon, Mrs. Wang specially plucked two white radishes from her vegetable patch, fried a large plate of shredded radish and diced radish, packed two plates of pickled side dishes, and specially steamed a large bowl of egg custard and a large pot of batter. It was the first time for the children to eat such a sumptuous meal. No one spoke during the whole meal. They all lowered their heads to eat the braised pork in their bowls. There were only the sounds of chewing and the clinking of bowls and chopsticks.

Everyone was satisfied with the meal, and all the children had round bellies. Xiaowu rubbed his belly with one hand and said with a smile on his face, "This meat is really delicious. I wish I could eat it every day." Yes!" Several others nodded in agreement.

When Uncle Xu heard what Xiao Wu said, he laughed and scolded, "You little bastard, you still want to eat meat every day. Do you think the money to buy meat comes from the strong wind? You should be grateful to Qibao for being able to eat meat. If Qibao hadn't risked his life to harvest it, You don’t even want to see the ginseng that comes back!”

Qibao said, "Uncle, our family will eat meat every day from now on. Qibao has already thought of a way to make money!"

The old man heard what Qibao said and said, "Qibao, tell grandpa what method have you come up with to make money?" Everyone also looked at Qibao expectantly.

Qibao said, "Grandpa, do you remember what I told you that my master gave me a lot of gems? In addition to gems, the master also has vegetables that we don't have here. I plan to sell these vegetables to a restaurant for money, so that I don't have to worry about my family." All the money has been spent!"

After listening to Qibao's words, the old man replied, "But does your master agree with you taking these things out? Will he blame you?"

Qibao smiled and said, "No, the master said that I can take whatever he has there, but he can't finish it anyway. What's more, my master is a god. Sometimes he goes into seclusion for several months without eating or drinking. The vegetables from the master's place There are too many to let go of!"

The old man pondered, "Even if these vegetables can be sold in restaurants, it will be difficult for the villagers to explain the source if they find out over time!"

Qibao said, "We can sort out the vegetable garden behind the house. I will go to the master to get some vegetable seedlings and plant them in the vegetable garden. Anyway, the vegetable garden is enclosed and outsiders will not be able to see the vegetable garden. When the time comes, Just say that the seeds were bought from barbarians in other places."

The old man thought this was a solution, so he nodded and agreed.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law quickly got up and packed the dishes. Mr. Xu took his three sons to dig the ground in the vegetable garden behind the house. The vegetable garden was quite large, but there were very few things to grow. There was only one plant. Small plots of green radishes and spring onions.

The father and son were busy loosening the empty land. Qibao looked at the land and had an idea in her mind. She planned to take out the tomatoes, potatoes, eggplants and peppers in the space and plant them in her own vegetable plot.

After the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law washed the dishes, they also came to the vegetable garden to help. Several young people helped clean up the weeds and pile them together. The work lasted an hour before it was finished.

"Qibao, the vegetable patch has been sorted out. What do you think will be done next?" the old man asked.

"Grandpa, please step back and be prepared. The moment to witness the miracle is coming soon!" As he said that, Qibao waved his little hand, and rows of vegetable seedlings that no one had ever seen suddenly appeared on the ground, some of which were hanging on them. There were red fruits the size of an adult's fist, and some had purple shiny sticks growing on them... Everyone looked at the things that suddenly appeared on the ground in shock, and their mouths were wide open enough to fit a duck egg in!Although everyone had heard Qibao say that they could take anything out from her master, no one had seen Qibao take out anything before, and now everyone was shocked when they saw the way he took things out!

Even the old man who had lived for most of his life took a long time to react and stammered, "Seven, seven treasures, you took out these?"

Qibao looked at everyone's reaction and understood their mood very well at this moment. He said to the old man, "Grandpa, I took these from the master. Hurry up and ask the uncle and others to plant the vegetable seedlings into the ground!"

After hearing what his granddaughter said, the old man quickly ordered his sons to help plant these rare vegetables in his garden!
It wasn't until all these vegetables were planted that everyone finally came to their senses.

Xiaowu quickly ran over and grabbed his sister's arm and said excitedly, "Sister, are you a fairy? Why did you suddenly conjure up so many things?" The other brothers immediately gathered around, surrounding Qibao, and asked their sister in a twittering manner. What kind of dishes are these? Are they delicious?

Several women were also very curious about how to eat these dishes, and they all looked at Qibao with expressions begging for explanation.

Qibao said, "I'll teach you how to make it tonight. It will be very delicious!" Then he turned to his father and said, "Dad, can you go back to the house and get a few large baskets and a bucket?"

Xu Laosan quickly agreed after hearing his daughter's words, turned around and took out a bucket and several baskets from the house.Qibao waved his little hand again, and suddenly the empty basket was filled with the same vegetables as in the field, and the bucket was also filled with a bucket of spiritual spring water. These vegetables were all picked by Xiaoling and placed in the warehouse. in stock.Everyone was stunned again, but this time everyone quickly came to their senses...

Qibao pointed to the bucket again and said, "Grandpa, this is spiritual spring water. This water can accelerate the growth of plants and has unexpected benefits for the human body. From now on, we will use this water for cooking at home. Now we need to pour some spiritual spring water on these vegetables." .”

When the family members heard what Qibao said, they looked at the bucket of water with treasured faces. The eldest aunt said with a distressed look, "Qibao, do you really want to use this magical water to water the vegetables?"

Qibao saw the troubled expressions on his eldest aunt and everyone else, and laughed and said, "Don't feel bad, everyone. I have plenty of this water, and it's inexhaustible!"

After hearing what Qibao said, the women no longer hesitated and took over the watering job!By the time the work in the vegetable garden was finished, it was already late.

Before it was time to make dinner, the women in the family gathered together to help the children make two sets of clothes using the newly bought cloth in the morning. You can't wear patched clothes to school, or you will be laughed at by your classmates!
