Chapter 54: Growing Vegetables

Sichuan pepper stared at the clumps of "weeds" and was reluctant to look away. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

I am afraid that in the blink of an eye, the "weeds" will disappear.

When Xiangye heard the question of the peppercorn, she looked in the direction of her finger, but only saw clumps of weeds, and said puzzledly: "It's grass!" ”

The pepper pulled the young lady forward, and the two little things unconsciously gradually walked out of the protective circle step by step. They tilted their heads again and stared at them for a long time.

Xiangye squatted on the ground even more, looked carefully, and only reacted to what the pepper said for a long time. There were indeed a few plants of different lengths in the weeds, although they had not yet grown, but they were only three or four inches tall, and they were dense and impermeable to the wind. But just looking at the leaves was enough for her to distinguish, and she pointed to her little head and told the pepper: "It's water celery!" ”

She didn't think it was rare, but looking at the peppercorn's stunned appearance, she thought she had never seen this kind of dish. I was afraid that she didn't know what water celery was, but she was heartbroken, and explained to her carefully: "It is a vegetable dish, which can be fried and eaten." After thinking about it, he told her, "My grandfather and grandmother love to eat." ”

Or because Lianxi is a mountain water, the water source is sufficient, and the water quality is particularly fresh, as for the aquatic aquatic plants and snail clams in the stream, the aquatic biological resources are extremely rich.

Lotus root, callus white, cucumber, water chestnut, water cress, water chestnut, water chestnut, cattail, chicken head rice and so on are rare in the northern realm of aquatic lettuce vegetables, but they can be seen everywhere in Lianxi, and there is even no lack of high-quality treasures.

As long as God still appreciates the food, and even doesn't need to take care of it on weekdays, as long as you are willing to spend time and effort in the harvest season, you won't have to worry about no harvest.

Although Xiangye is young, she also grew up by the lotus stream, and there are so many brothers and sisters above, but her knowledge is not weak.

As for the pepper, in the past and present life, they are the "wild children" who grew up in the Weixiang Lake District, and the next ones may not work, but it is not a problem to catch a snail and a snail. And this ravine, the edge of the field, but the water celery that can grow wildly everywhere in the damp realm is not a problem.

In this life, she grew up to three years old, and it was not that she had never seen water celery. I don't know why, just at that glance, a thought suddenly popped up in her mind, and the whole person suddenly became transparent, never before. The heartbeat is getting faster and faster, but even the tip of the nose is densely covered with hair.

Xiangye looked sideways at her sister, only thinking that the little thing was weird. He looked at her with his fingers, and saw that she was still looking at the water celery fixedly, and he was very puzzled, and suddenly remembered something, so he looked at the peppercorns and giggled.

Xiangye felt that she had already touched her sister's pulse, and it turned out that she wanted to eat water celery! Although she didn't like to eat the weird-tasting dish, she still stood up and shouted "Daddy" and waved at him: "You come, you come, Daddy!" ”

Qin Lianlong, who was filling in the soil and rocks on the side, had already noticed that these two little things were squatting on the edge of the stream, and the two little heads were together and didn't know what they were looking at, and when he heard his daughter calling himself, he held the hoe, turned his head sideways and wiped his sweat with a handkerchief around his neck, and walked forward and squatted down with a smile: "What's wrong with you two?" ”

Sichuan Jiao turned his head to look at the bay leaf in confusion, and saw the bay leaf pointing to the water celery, and said crisply: "Pepper Jiao wants to eat vegetables, Daddy, I want that water celery." ”

Qin Lianlong looked at his daughter's fingers, paused, and couldn't help but be surprised: "It's really water celery!" Then he wondered, "How can there be water celery here?" ”

The two little heads shook their heads in unison.

Qin Lianlong took a closer look, he grew so big by the Lianxi River, where there is an eel hole, where can you catch the crazy Ang male fish, where can you find edible vegetables and vegetables, he can tell it with his eyes closed, and he can also be sure that there has been water chestnut chicken head rice at the door of his house, but he has never grown water celery.

Du Shi, who was carrying a burden and walked over, was also surprised when he saw it: "How can there be water celery?"

If it is the side, maybe Du Shi will not be so unusual, the vitality of plant seeds is far more tenacious than that of people.

However, water celery is not as good as other vegetables, and its peculiarity lies in the fact that it usually does not produce seeds. Even if it is difficult to finish, it will be empty. There are no seeds, so it is forced to give birth to a side mode of propagation, which is to reproduce by the axillary buds on the nodes of the mother stem.

It is precisely because of this that the previous drought has killed all the aquatic plants in the lotus stream, where did this come from the mother stem of the cress, could it be that it floated over along the previous water to take root here?

Du Shi thought that it was already a wall in three steps and two steps, pulled two water celery plants, and looked at it carefully, there was no fluff on the stem, and the leaf teeth and stems were all slender. Indeed, it is water celery, not poison hemlock.

I was even more puzzled.

I didn't see it yesterday, so why did it grow overnight?

I walked along the ridge of the stream for a while, and looked at the water celery everywhere, but I was happy.

I haven't seen greenhead cabbage in my family for a few months. With this water celery, won't you be able to add a dish to your family!

It will not be pinched, Dushi is very experienced, and it is only two plants that are picked up by picking up overly dense water celery, but it is just a seedling between them to make room for normal growth. And it's barely enough for a bowl of dishes, so I stopped.

He took a water celery plant and tied it up, handed it to the peppercorns and bay leaves that had followed her all the way, and told them to send them home.

The two little things reached out to catch the water celery, nodded again and again, and Hua Jiao raised her head and asked her, "Second uncle, I want to pull a few water celery." Then he told her, "I will grow vegetables and make them many, many things." ”

When Du Shi heard this, he looked at the sparkling eyes of the peppercorns and smiled: "We peppers still know how to grow vegetables, but this is water celery, and it has to grow in water!" ”

Hua Jiao didn't defend either, just smiled at Du Shi.

Du Shi didn't think much about it, just thought that the two of them were thinking about the family, so he pulled out a few more plants and handed them to the peppercorns: "Take it and play!" ”

Huajiao nodded again and again, and thanked the second aunt with his little hands, but he couldn't bear the excitement in his heart, and ran back with the bay leaves.

sent the small bundle of water celery to the kitchen, and the old lady Qin, who was busy on the stove, was also happy to see the water celery. Hua Jiao was a little glad that his expression ability was still very limited, and he barely explained two sentences, so he hurriedly pulled the bay leaves to the vegetable garden: "Let's go plant vegetables!" ”

PS: Watching the game in the morning, I was too boiling, too excited, too moved, tears were in my eyes, I guess I'm not in the mood to code words today~
