Crossing Over I Became a Married Peasant Woman

The old lady was also surprised: ''My darling, this one really grows. I didn't even pull out a few trees just now, but it actually filled a big basket. Third daughter-in-law, can this be eaten? ''

Pei Xiu had already recovered and said with a smile, ''If you can eat it, you can definitely eat it. If my mother is worried, I will try it with my silver ear nails. Don't they all say that silver needles can test poison? ''

The old lady was also happy, she didn't even notice where she got the silver earrings, ''Hey, then you go get it. ''

When she took it out, the old lady reacted and glared at her son without saying anything. It's not the first time that this prodigal son loves his daughter-in-law and protects his daughter-in-law.

Seeing that the color didn't change, everyone was happy. Zhou Chengcheng was excited. If everyone planted it, would no one go hungry again. As he spoke, he moved his eyes away from those sweet potato vines.

Pei Xiu noticed his reaction and knew that he also thought of no hunger in the world. Said: ''Wait first, I'll wash these potatoes, let's cook a few and eat them first to see how they taste. ''

''Potato? The name is indeed vivid and figurative. '' Zhou Cheng repeated.

The old lady also said: ''Isn't it a lump in the soil, it's called potatoes, the third wife, go and cook a few, I'll have a taste. ''

Even the old lady Zhou waited patiently, without urging, and asked Zhou Cheng: ''Third, where did you get these seeds? Are those wooden boxes over there similar to these potatoes? ''

''Mother, I bought it from the shopkeeper of a grocery store. He said it was a seed that was passed down from overseas. When no one in the store cared about it, he sold me at a cheap price. '' Zhou Cheng thought as he said that, there is still one seed that has not been planted.

He was extremely looking forward to what the little yellow seeds could grow in the end, and he was a little anxious. The sloping land on the back mountain had to be reclaimed as soon as possible.

These potatoes are too small. Pei Xiu directly washed them and cut them into pieces without peeling them. He took a piece of garlic and put it in the pot and stir-fry it with the potatoes. Add water, boil it and add the chopped pickles to taste. After the potatoes are rotten, they are placed in four bowls.

Let Zhou Cheng help come in and bring them out together. The old lady shouted: ''I'm here, I'm here, what kind of kitchen are the three old men going into. ''

Pei Xiu thought to herself, fortunately, the family split up and didn't live together, otherwise the old lady would not be mad when she saw Zhou Cheng cook breakfast every day...

The old lady took a sip and said, ''Hey, what a potato, it's delicious. It's soft and rotten, and it can be eaten without teeth. The boiled pickles are sour and delicious. ''

Everyone didn't express any further opinions, everyone ate all the bowls and soup, and the old lady burped, ''This is good, it tastes good, and I'm full. ''

Zhou Cheng nodded in agreement.

''Mother, there is still a bowl, you can bring it back to Dad to taste, and then ask Dad to come over with the eldest brother and the second brother. Let's discuss something. '' Pei Xiu said to the old lady.

The old lady was still a little confused, ''What are you discussing? ''

Zhou Cheng was very satisfied with Pei Xiu's general knowledge, "Mother, it's time to call my father and the eldest brother over here. The yield of potatoes is high. Let's share a little with the eldest brother and the second brother and plant them together. We will discuss the details when they come over." . ''

The old lady nodded and said: ''Yes, yes, you can't forget your eldest brother, second brother. I'll call. ''

Pei Xiu took a basket for the old lady to carry. The old lady didn't care about her age, her legs and feet were still very neat, and she protected the basket so that no soup was spilled. When leaving, they also told them not to tell others and wait for them to come over at home.

Pei Xiu looked around the potatoes happily, then looked at the sweet potato vines in the wooden box, and said to Zhou Cheng: ''Can these be pulled out too? ''

''Wait until Dad and the others come over. They have been planting the land for so many years, and they still have eyesight. Let them help to see if it can be pulled out. '' Zhou Cheng looked at the sweet potato vine, then turned to the potato again, thinking.

She asked again: '' Just now I should have told my mother to bring a scale and weigh how many kilograms there are here. It doesn't take a lot of land to grow so much. The yield per mu is much higher than that of rice and wheat. The key is good seed, easy to live, without strenuous management. ''

Zhou Cheng nodded in agreement. The ones that have just been received must not be moved. They must all be kept as seeds, and they will definitely be able to reap more at that time.

The more I think about it, the hotter my heart becomes. At that time, I can sell it to the people in my village for farming, and then sell it outside. He felt that he could contact the prince, which was a great thing for the prince.

Thinking wildly, Mrs. Zhou came over in a hurry with Mr. Zhou, Brother Zhou and Brother Tuesday. Brother Zhou and Brother Tuesday have each tasted a bite of potatoes, and they dare not question what their mother said, dozens of kilograms of potatoes were grown in a few wooden boxes. Said, came in a hurry.

On the way, I met a few acquaintances who asked me about it, and I was prevaricate about it, but my mother told me that you must not let outsiders know.

As soon as they entered the door, everyone saw a whole box of potatoes, and then they inspected the yard. A few wooden boxes were emptied, and the others were still growing lushly.

The old man Zhou pointed to the potatoes in the bamboo frame on the ground and said, ''The third one, is this the potato you planted? Your mother said that you planted it in the wooden box in the yard~www.readwn.com~ Can it be planted like this? ''

''Father, eldest brother and second brother, you just brought the weighing, let's first weigh how much these potatoes can weigh. ''

Zhou Cheng took the rope and tied it to the top of the basket. Brother Zhou lifted the weight on Tuesday, and Old Man Zhou looked at the weight and said, ''Fifty-five pounds! ''

They didn't understand it yet. They didn't think how much these 55 kilograms of potatoes were. But Zhou Cheng, Pei Xiu and Mrs. Zhou knew very well that Mrs. Zhou had spent her whole life on the land, and her farm work was no worse than that of the old Zhou. She watched the third child dig potatoes with her own eyes. With just those ten wooden boxes, you can pack fifty-five catties of potatoes, how much can be produced from that one mu of land.

Look at the old man, the eldest, and the second are dumbfounded. The old lady patted her thigh in a hurry, ''You fools, look at the empty wooden boxes, these are the ten boxes just now. dug out. Calculate how many potatoes can be grown on one acre of land. ''

The three men of the Zhou family are not very good at counting, but they have experience in farming, look at the size of the wooden boxes, and then compare the amount of harvest.

Boss Zhou also estimated the approximate amount in his heart, and said in surprise: ''This acre of land can't be collected more than a thousand catties. ''

Zhou Lao Er echoed and said: ''Yes, yes. ''

Old Man Zhou and Mrs. Zhou can't count, but they also know that the output will definitely not be low. Hearing what the two sons said, the old man Zhou was very excited. He rushed to the basket of potatoes, grabbed the potatoes tightly, and excitedly asked Zhou Cheng: ''Really, the third child, can you really produce thousands of pounds per mu. ''

Among the sons, the third child had seen the world. He wanted to hear what the third child had to say: ''Father, I've calculated it. The yield per mu is more than a thousand catties, and it should reach two or three thousand catties. ''
