Chapter 604: Feeding the Pigs
A group of bear children are a bit crazy, and Liu Musheng and the others retreated in advance to find some other programs.
Continuing on, there is a mountain field connected to the paddy field, and in a mountain col, a woman and a little girl are working, and the ground is a dense sweet potato, and the two are harvesting.
"Second aunt, are you digging sweet potatoes? Xiuyun is also so diligent in helping?"
Qi Tengyun greeted and said, this woman is the mother of the little guy who played with the mobile phone just now, and he is his own family, otherwise how could he have time to "educate" the little guy?
The little girl was picking the sweet potatoes from the potato vine and putting them in the basket, the juice mixed with the dirt sticking to her hands black.
Her name is Qi Xiuyun, and she is still in elementary school, but she is much more sensible than other little guys, not only has good grades in school, but also helps with housework and work in the fields when she has free time.
In rural areas, many girls are much more sensible than boys, and they are more active in housework and farm work, and they take the initiative to help.
However, in many rural areas, there is still a patriarchal mentality, and it is difficult to treat everyone equally.
Many girls know that it is hard, and they will study hard and go out of the mountains, especially in their village, with Zhao Xue and several other girls as role models, many girls and children work extra hard.
Nowadays, many people are thinking about being admitted to university, unlike before, many people go out to work after high school or even junior high school, and have no intention of studying.
"Are you doing that live broadcast again? These are your friends?"
The second aunt wiped her sweat and said, with a gentle smile, Qi Tengyun, as one of the most promising children in the village, also reached out to help a lot, and gave them a long face.
"Well, they are just curious to come down and take a walk, what about the second uncle?
Qi Tengyun said.
"He went to the mountain reservoir to help, and the sweet potato was not in a hurry to finish digging, just the two of us. ”
The second aunt said.
"That's how sweet potatoes were grown?"
Looking at the bulges on the ditch, Shao Dengfeng said curiously, I have eaten a lot of sweet potatoes, but it is the first time I have come into contact with the origin.
"It's rare and weird! It seems that Brother Feng, you really need to go to the countryside for a walk!"
"This sweet potato seems to be quite big! Roasted sweet potato from local materials, the mountains and rivers are beautiful!"
"This is a yellow sweet potato, which is larger than the average sweet potato, and the yield is higher. ”
"And I feel that this is also better than sweet potatoes, and sweet potatoes are a little more beautiful. ”
Yellow sweet potatoes are a little sweeter and may be more popular in the south. ”
"This little girl is so cute! she is so sensible at a young age and helps with farm work. ”
"Looking at her serious and skillful appearance, you know that she is not a cameo, and she often helps. ”
……
The people in the live broadcast room were discussing, and unconsciously shifted more topics to the little girl, she also knew about Qi Tengyun's live broadcast, and when she saw the camera facing her, she suddenly seemed a little unnatural to dodge.
"Don't you want these potato leaves?"
Seeing the little girl running to the side, skillfully wielding a sickle to cut off the sweet potato vine and throw it aside, Liu Musheng said.
These sweet potato vines are still very green, with new shoots growing, and in his impression, the potato leaves are delicious, and the price is relatively expensive among vegetables.
"No, if you don't want it, usually if you have a cow at home, you take it back and feed it. ”
Qi Tengyun said.
"I remember that the potatoes are delicious, right? The price is not cheap, can't it be sold for money?"
Yang Quan said.
"Where will someone come to buy it? I don't know how much the shipping fee is, and the edible potato leaves are specially grown. If you want to eat it, I'll get some back tonight, it's all natural and pollution-free. ”
Qi Tengyun said that sweet potatoes are one of the heaviest crops, and after planting, there is basically no need to manage them, no need to apply fertilizer, no pesticides, just regularly comb the potato vines that spread everywhere.
"What's so good about potato leaves? Do you want to eat these sweet potatoes?"
The second aunt said that this thing is not an uncommon thing, basically every household has it, but some people will pass by, take local materials and take them to roast or eat raw, especially the group of little guys herding cattle, who often do this when they have nothing to do.
She wouldn't care, she didn't even have to ask, no one would care about these sweet potatoes. In the countryside, it is natural to pick something to eat like this, and when you run into it, you will say hello.
"Thank you, Auntie!"
Liu Musheng and the others were not hypocritical, and dug a few by themselves.
"This white juice can't be washed off when it gets on your clothes, be careful!"
Qi Tengyun reminded that these three guys were out of the house, and they were all dressed up, and the dust could be washed off, and if they were stained with these white juices, they would be wasted.
Liu Musheng and the others also noticed that the sweet potatoes that had just been picked from the vine had white juice bubbling from the fractures, which were sticky on the hands and could not be wiped off.
"Didn't you say earlier, this can be washed off on your hands, right?"
How did they know that there was such a thing? If they hadn't gone through it today, they might never have known.
"If you can wash it off, don't panic. ”
Qi Tengyun said a little speechlessly.
"Can you grow so much and eat it?
Liu Musheng saw that this large piece of sweet potatoes was growing well, and he was afraid that he would not be able to harvest thousands of catties, and there were many in other fields, so he asked curiously.
"How can they be sold? There are very few people in our area who go to the countryside to collect these things, but there is more rice. These are all planted to feed chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs, and people also eat some, and in winter, when the cattle are not slaughtered, they also have to boil sweet potatoes to feed them, how can there be so much rice and feed to feed them?"
The second aunt said.
Feeding chickens, ducks, pigs, dogs, cows, and wasting rice and feed? In their minds, sweet potatoes seem to be much more expensive than rice, right?
Sure enough, what they eat is used to feed pigs in the countryside?
Think about it, sweet potato planting is not difficult, the yield is also high, the planting range is wide, it is impossible to run out of stock, the price is expensive in the city, most of them are still the problem of freight, and this problem is basically unsolvable.
Thinking about the eighteen bends in the mountain road when they drove in, it was even more difficult to manage.
"Great Sage, I also want to eat sweet potatoes, mail me ten catties and eight catties, don't worry, I'll give money!"
"I want to eat too, so let's just join us!"
"This lottery seems to be good, get a few catties to draw a lottery!"
"I usually don't feel much about sweet potatoes, why do I want to eat them when I watch the live broadcast of the Great Sage?"
……
In the live broadcast room, a group of viewers asked Qi Tengyun to bring the goods, this large piece of sweet potatoes has enough portions, and it is not a problem for everyone to have a share.
"Express fart! If you want to eat, won't you go out and buy it yourself? Where is it? I don't know how much this express has shipped in the past, do you think you don't need to pay for buying things online?"
Qi Tengyun angrily slammed back.
"But we just want to eat your live broadcast, and we're not interested in the market. ”
The audience replied like this, you are not happy to earn money, really!
