Chapter 106 Roasted Corn

Because of the use of super fertilizers

Zhang Feng's corn grows thick and green, and a large green patch is full of vitality.

Seeing that his corn was growing so well, and the corn cob was big and long, Zhang Feng was also very happy, and walked to the other side with Liu Yiyi.

"Crazy, isn't this your cornfield, where are we going?" Zhang Qian looked around, and asked suspiciously while following Zhang Feng.

"It's not waxy corn here, it's still at the foot of the mountain over there. Zhang Feng turned his head and smiled and explained that because waxy corn tastes better whether it is roasted or boiled, almost every household in the countryside will grow a small piece and eat it by itself.

As for the other corn, because of its bad taste, it is usually either sold or fed to the family after it is harvested in the fall.

"Oh!" Although Liu Yiyi had never planted corn, she also knew that everyone usually ate waxy corn, so she silently followed Zhang Feng and walked to the foot of the mountain on the other side.

Zhang Feng's corn field is not large, only about two acres, and the annual output in previous years was more than 1,000 catties, which was only enough to feed two or three pigs, and there was not much income at all.

However, this year, because of the use of super fertilizers, the corn in the field has risen gratifyingly, and Zhang Feng estimates that this year's corn production will not be extravagant.

But then Zhang Feng shook his head again, even if the family's corn production has increased greatly this year, it is only 3,000 catties, and a pound of corn on the market is only sold for about a piece, and the income of selling all of them is only about 3,000 yuan, which is still very small, so the life of farmers living in the mountainous areas is still very difficult.

Therefore, in order to increase income, the people in the village just grow less food, everyone has planted a lot of cash crops, although the income of the family has increased to a certain extent, but because the village is planted, every family has it, the market has become a problem, everyone grows fruits, ginger, peanuts and other crops have become chicken ribs, almost all of them are sold at the price of cabbage, which is very cheap, so it is very important to increase everyone's income, open up the market, and expand sales channels.

"Hehe, it's really salty and eating radishes and worrying about it! Is this a problem I consider?" Zhang Feng shook his head, he was not in his position, and he didn't have any good ways, so Zhang Feng didn't think about it anymore, and continued to lead Liu Yiyi to the foot of the mountain.

"Alright, here it is. ”

"It's finally here. Liu Yiyi said happily.

Breaking corn is very simple, but before breaking it you have to find mature corn, everyone generally peels off the corn husk first, and then pinches the corn kernels inside, to know whether the corn is ripe.

Zhang Feng demonstrated it, and Liu Yiyi learned it immediately, and after a while, the two broke more than 20.

"Alright, Yiyi is almost there, let's go back. ”

"Ahh

"There are more than 20 of them, and I can't finish too much to eat. "The corn is still fresh and delicious, and it is not so sweet the next day, so everyone usually breaks it on the same day and eats it on the same day.

Then the two put the corn into the back basket, Zhang Feng carried the back basket, and Liu Yiyi took the sickle and walked home unhurriedly.

"Wait a minute!" the two were walking on the mountain road, when suddenly Zhang Feng shouted.

"What's wrong?" Liu Yiyi was startled, stopped and asked in doubt.

Looking at the ground in front of him, Zhang Feng had a smile on his face, "Hehe, you see there's a small trap here!"

"What??" Liu Yiyi thought it was a trap laid by a hunter at first, but when Zhang Feng picked up the weeds on it, there was a small pit of twenty or thirty centimeters, and inside the pit was a ball of stinky cow dung.

"Hehe, this must be the masterpiece of the ducklings again!" As soon as he saw this trap, Zhang Feng said affirmatively, because this was all left over from their childhood, so it was extremely familiar.

"Hehe, these children are really naughty!" Hearing Zhang Feng's explanation, Liu Yiyi also felt very interesting.

"Let's go, let's go back!"

"Why did you cover it again?" Seeing Zhang Feng cover the weeds on the trap again, Liu Yiyi asked with a look of surprise.

"It's okay, there's no danger in it anyway, just see who will win the jackpot!" Zhang Feng said with a wicked smile.

"Hehe, you're so bad!" Liu Yiyi said with a snicker.

………………………………

"Which one is the one who suffered a thousand cuts!" "Lack of morality, give birth to a son without ** ......"

As soon as the two of them walked to the mountain pass, they heard a loud and angry shouting and scolding behind them, Zhang Feng heard that it was not the third wife, who else could it be, it was estimated that she had won the jackpot and stepped on the cow dung in the trap.

Hearing the scolding behind them, the two looked at each other, "Haha, don't leave quickly!" Liu Yiyi snorted and laughed, wanting to pull Zhang Feng and leave quickly.

"What are you afraid of, don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. Anyway, the trap is not dug by us!" Zhang Feng is still very calm, he has done a lot of such things when he was a child, and he has already formed an experience, the more panicked he is after doing bad things, the easier it is to be exposed, as long as he keeps calm, others will not know that you did it.

"Hehe, seeing that you are so experienced, you must have been very naughty when you were a child!" Liu Yiyi was relieved at this time, and then said to Zhang Feng with a smile.

"Average, third in the village!"

The two walked home with a smile and a smile, as a girl who grew up in the city, Liu Yiyi felt that today's things were very interesting.

Today I not only saw the thief who stole the corn, but also saw the trap dug by the children, especially the lump of cow dung inside, thinking about Liu Yiyi felt very interesting, these things that are not in the city at all, Liu Yiyi felt very fresh, as if he had discovered a new world.

"Yiyi, Xiaofeng, you're back, and you haven't been late for roasted corn for many years. When Old Man Liu saw the two of them coming back with corn on their backs, he missed the taste of roasted corn very much, because there were no conditions for roasting corn in the city.

"Grandpa, we're back!" Liu Yiyi said with a happy smile.

Zhang Feng put down the back basket, then peeled off all the corn, leaving only five or six ready to roast and eat, and poured the rest of the corn into the cauldron and boiled.

After lighting a fire, and waiting for the charcoal burned out of the fire, Zhang Feng put the corn left behind in the stove, and soon the corn inside crackled and exploded, like fried popcorn, and there was a burst of fragrance.

"Ahh

"Hehe, not yet, I'll have to wait a while. Zhang Feng turned the corn over with tongs and roasted the other side.

After about two minutes, the other side was also roasted golden brown, and the corn kernels exploded, exuding a strong aroma, "Okay, finally one is baked." ”

"Oh, it's so hot!" Liu Yiyi hurriedly took it with her hand, and was so hot that she shrank her hand.

"Don't be busy, you try to wrap it in corn husks!" Zhang Feng smiled and suggested.

"Hey, it's really not hot!" Then Liu Yiyi happily took the roasted corn and handed it to her grandfather in the hall.

"I haven't eaten roasted corn for many years, so come and try it, wife!" the old man was very happy, and gave half of it to Grandma Liu, and said with a sigh.

"Well, it's delicious, it's still the same as before. "Grandma Liu took a bite, it was fragrant and delicious, and the taste was almost exactly the same as in her memory.

Seeing that the two old men were eating so happily, Zhang Feng was also very happy, and stuffed two into the stove again, and soon everyone got one, and the food was very sweet, this was the first meal of roasted corn this year.
