Chapter 3 Sweet Potatoes

  Mother Xu pushed the door and came in. There were huge brown fruits growing under the green vines, with fresh soil on them.

  These vines and brown fruits take up half the firewood room, which is too much!

   Visually, I’m afraid it’s a few hundred pounds, which is too much.

   This is by no means a human effort.

  This is only a real miracle.

"Mother, this thing is called sweet potato. This seed is the sweet potato vine on it. If you cut it and plant it, a bunch of sweet potatoes will grow in the ground. This sweet potato is boiled with water and can be eaten, or it can be roasted in the fire. Eat. I'll cook a few sweet potatoes for you to eat and try the taste."

  Xu Zhizhi was about to pick a few sweet potatoes to cook.

   She was also very hungry. That wild vegetable soup was really unpalatable.

   But Mother Xu grabbed Xu Zhizhi.

   "Quickly kneel down and thank the gods."

  Second Uncle also knelt down with him.

   The two Xiaodou Ding from the Xu family naturally knelt down as well.

  Xu Zhizhi had no choice but to kowtow several times.

   Then start to cook the sweet potatoes, put the water in the pot and boil, wash the sweet potatoes, put them in the pot, and cover the pot.

   It didn't take long before I smelled a fragrant smell.

  Xu Zhizhi opened the lid of the pot.

Several people looked at the fragrant and hot sweet potatoes, and they were a little greedy. Xu Zhizhi distributed one to each of them. Everyone blew hot air with their mouths, and carefully peeled off the mud-colored skin, revealing the yellow sweet potato flesh inside. , took a big mouthful and ate it with his hands.

   "This sweet potato is soft and delicious, sweet but not greasy, and full of stomach, mother, now you believe what the gods said." Xu Zhizhi asked her mother.

   Mother Xu looked at Xu Zhizhi with a smile and said, "Children and grandchildren will have their own children and grandchildren, and mother will not ask about you."

   This sweet potato is just beginning to taste sweet and delicious, it is many times stronger than that wild vegetable soup

   Xu Zhizhi ate a lot before and felt nothing.

   But where have the two younger brothers ever eaten such delicious food. Usually, it is good to be full, so the food is particularly fragrant, and it is finished in a few seconds. Fortunately, Xu Zhizhi cooked a lot, and there is still in the pot.

   Xu Zhizhi was full after eating half of it. After she finished eating, she divided the sweet potato vine and sweet potato into three portions.

   One for Uncle, one for Mother Xu to give to her parents, and one for her own family.

   After this is divided, it is actually not much, only about half an mu of land.

   Anyway, vines are seeds, and you can continue to plant them later.

  Sweet potatoes are mostly kept at home and eaten by themselves.

  There is no food at home, so it is impossible to drink wild vegetable soup every day.

   After Xu Zhizhi taught how to plant, Xu's mother and second uncle immediately took the sweet potato vine and left.

   This must be planted as soon as possible, otherwise, the sweet potato vine will wither.

  Xu Zhizhi planted sweet potato vines on the black soil in front of the house. It is close to home and the soil is fertile, which is suitable for growing sweet potatoes.

  Sweet potatoes absorb a lot of nutrients from the land, and you can also pour natural fertilizers, so you don’t have to go too far.

  The two younger brothers are also very diligent in helping.

  Xu Daniu said to Xu Zhizhi: "Sister, it's okay if you don't marry that Jin Zijun, that guy usually looks down on our family, and he doesn't even look at us."

  Xu Daniu is Xu Zhizhi's eldest brother. He is fourteen years old this year. He is thin and sensible.

  Xu Xiaowu is Xu Zhizhi's younger brother. He is only five or six years old and is ignorant, but he also knows that every time Jin Zijun comes to their house, he will be hungry.

  Xu Zhizhi looked at the two skinny little brothers and felt a little distressed.

   She said to Xu Daniu: "We don't have to pay attention to him in the future, we also eat meat every day."

   When it comes to eating meat, the two younger brothers salivate. Meat can only be eaten once a year, but I can't forget the taste of meat.

   Work is also extraordinarily energetic.

   There is not much work on half an acre of land, and it is finished in one afternoon.

   Mother Xu hasn't come back yet.

   Xu Zhizhi took two younger brothers to roast sweet potatoes.

   This roasted sweet potato, Xu Zhizhi thinks the taste is average, after all, there are too many modern delicacies.

   But for the two younger brothers, it is a delicacy in the world, and there is no better food in the world.

   Xu Zhizhi's space has nothing in stock, these sweet potatoes are still what she intends to use to make dried sweet potatoes, otherwise, she will definitely let her two younger brothers eat something good.

   Most of her space is filled with medicinal herbs or something.

   There are also seasonings such as pepper, **** and garlic.

  The watermelon in the space has just bloomed.

   But this kind of seed in this watermelon, she has never used it to grow, do not know how the effect is?

  It is estimated that in a few weeks, there will be watermelons to eat.

  Tomorrow she will pull out a ginseng from the space, saying that it was dug from the mountain.

  Then I can go to town to sell money, let’s re-build this house first, it’s too unsafe to live in this thatched hut.

   When it was night, Mother Xu came back with a smile.

   All smiles on his face.

   As a mother, what you most desire is naturally that your children will be promising.

   Now there are gods covering Xu Zhizhi.

   Then Xu Zhizhi will definitely marry a good family in the future.

   So when she walked, she was very energetic and her face was red.

   That Jin Zijun, in fact, she didn't like it very much, and she was not very polite to their family.

   But this is the best talent in the entire Qili Village.

   For the sake of her daughter, she endured it for a while.

   When she went out today, she realized that this Jin Zijun was actually hooking up with other women, and even openly led people to bully her daughter, forcing her daughter to apologize to that woman.

   This is just too much.

   This Jin Zijun eats and drinks from his own family, and usually relies on his own family for relief. He is just a boy, and he doesn't know if he can be admitted to a scholar!

   Fairy is right, this is a white-eyed wolf.

   This marriage should be retired.

   Now that the sweet potato is mature, her parents will be able to eat enough, so she doesn't have to go hungry every day, life will only get better and better.

  In the eyes of the villagers, this was just an excuse made up by the Xu family for not being able to step down from the stage.

   But this Jin Zijun is really not authentic.

   Already engaged, he was chasing with other women, and he even forced Xu Zhizhi to kneel down and apologize to Wang Shishi in public. This was indeed over.

   This Wang Shishi lives in the Wang family and is said to be the niece of the Wang family.

   also brought a maid, looking at this style, she was dressed like a lady in the city.

   I don't know if it's because the family is down, that's why I came to take refuge with my uncle who can't even hit eight poles.

   This Wang Shishi can dress up again, and is naturally different from the peasant girls in the village.

   In addition to his generous hand, the skinny camel is bigger than the horse, and the broken boat also has three-point nails. Compared with Xu Zhizhi, he is still richer. Everyone knows how to choose.

   This Jin Zijun fell in love with Wang Shishi, which is really normal.

   On the surface, no one said it, but secretly, everyone knew about Jin Zijun's virtues. He was usually full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but in fact it was nothing more than that.
