Chapter 40: Xi Miao
After Uncle Guo left, Cui Yuanjian began to teach Yuankang and Xiaoxiao to memorize "Thousand Character Text", Cui Xiaoxiao patted his head, and then remembered that he forgot to buy candles, and he could remember something in his brain.
It's already dark, and looking at the appearance of the eldest brother, he will still ask for big characters for a while, Cui Xiaoxiao said, "Big brother, let's give sweet potato seedlings today, right?" Busy with work on your back? ”
"Xiaoxiao, can you tell me how to give sweet potato seedlings in detail? And how do you get potatoes? Cui Yuanjian thinks it's better to be careful, in case the little sister remembers wrongly, won't she be blind with so many sweet potatoes and potatoes.
"That's right, little sister, tell me what's going on?" Cui Yuankang was curious.
"Big brother, second brother, have you ever seen sprouts grow on sweet potatoes?" Cui Xiaoxiao asked.
"I've seen it, I've seen it." Cui Yuankang hurriedly said, "Big brother, you also remember, the year before last, our family harvested sweet potatoes, and before they were put in a basket and put in the cellar, my father was called by my grandfather to help, and after I came back, the sweet potatoes below sprouted." ”
"That's it, sweet potatoes will sprout even if they are not planted in the ground." Cui Xiaoxiao hurriedly took over the conversation, every time he mentioned his deceased father, the Cui brothers were not very happy, "Actually, when to plant it depends on the temperature, why don't you plant it now, it's still cold outside, and you can't sprout if you plant it."
But the house is warm, let's put the sweet potatoes in the house, the temperature is enough, it sprouts, and when the weather is warm, others start planting, our family is already green seedlings, then our family is not more precocious than other people's homes.
It is precocious for a period of time before others, and it is rare, and our family can also sell for more money than others. ”
"That's right." Cui Yuanjian listened to his sister's words and felt reasonable, "Xiaoxiao, can that dish also be miao?" "Does anyone like early-maturing sweet potatoes Cui Yuanjian doesn't know, but there must be people who are willing to buy early-maturing dishes.
After eating radishes, potatoes, and cabbage for a winter, I will definitely like other dishes when I see them, and they can be sold at a good price.
Cui Xiaoxiao admires her eldest brother too much, should she be so smart, "Okay, big brother, you are too powerful, I was just about to say this, but I was thought of." ”
Cui Yuankang was also happy, although he didn't expect it, but the person he thought of was his eldest brother, but he also had to think about it.
"Then the two acres of land in our backyard are not all planted with sweet potatoes and potatoes, so set aside some of them to grow vegetables." Cui Yuanjian said, "Then the vegetable seeds we bought will not be enough, so we will go to the town and buy some more." ”
"Okay, big brother." What is more and what is less is the same for Cui Yuankang.
Cui Yuanjian glanced at Cui Yuankang and knew that he hadn't figured it out yet, so he asked, "Xiaokang, what do you say is the difference between growing vegetables and growing sweet potatoes?" ”
"It's all eaten, what's the difference, but I think it's better to have potatoes and sweet potatoes, and you can still have a full stomach." Cui Yuankang thought about it for a long time, and pulled off a few strands of hair, so he came up with such a sentence.
Cui Xiaoxiao was so happy when she heard it, the second brother really couldn't forget to eat it at any time.
"You" Cui Yuanjian sighed, resisted the urge to give Cui Yuankang a slap, and wondered in his heart, is stupid by nature?
However, Cui Yuanjian continued to ask, "Now give you a bundle of spinach and a sweet potato, which one do you like, choose the favorite?" ”
"I prefer spinach." Cui Yuankang looked at the eldest brother with a black face, and said cautiously, in fact, what he wanted to say was that he preferred sweet potatoes for spinach and sweet potatoes, but that shouldn't be the answer that the eldest brother wanted.
Cui Yuanjian saw Yuankang's appearance and knew that he didn't understand, so he gave up asking the question and said directly, "You know that the vegetables are expensive now, if the vegetables in our vegetable garden are precocious for a period of time than those in other people's, will our vegetables be able to sell at a good price."
What about sweet potatoes, put it away, it's not a problem to put last year's sweet potatoes into this year's new sweet potatoes, you just mature early for a month, what's the use! ”
Speaking of which, Cui Yuanjian thought that if his own vegetables could really ripen early for a month, it would be much better than planting potatoes and sweet potatoes.
"Xiaoxiao, do you know how long you can mature early if you grow vegetables, a month?" Cui Yuanjian confirmed with Cui Xiaoxiao.
How long it can be precocious, Cui Xiaoxiao is not sure, but the spiritual spring in the space seems to have the effect of ripening, and it is a big deal to pour more spiritual springs, "It's okay in a month, big brother." ”
"Then we'll grow all the vegetables in our backyard." Cui Yuanjian made a decision on the spot.
"Big brother, aren't you afraid of losing money?" Cui Xiaoxiao felt that although the eldest brother believed that he was a good thing, he should not be too impulsive.
Cui Xiaoxiao knows that every household here will grow vegetables, and the vegetables in summer are very cheap, and they can buy several catties for a penny, so it is not easy to sell.
"It's okay, you will pay for it, as long as you are not afraid of eating wild vegetables." Cui Yuanjian really thinks it's nothing, in the summer, he just goes to the mountains to find something to feed their brothers and sisters, so why not make a fuss? I just don't know what my younger siblings think?
Cui Xiaoxiao's face suddenly blushed, he had really been comfortable for too long, and he had lost his momentum.
Cui Xiaoxiao's appearance fell in Cui Yuanjian's eyes, but he was excited, and then looked at Cui Yuankang, who was eager to try, it was good to have such a younger brother and sister who was willing to support him.
Cui Yuanjian and Cui Yuankang went to find broken clay pots, broken pots, and even found a broken pot, Cui Xiaoxiao sighed that he still didn't know enough about this family, and he really didn't know where they poured these things from.
Fill the pot with soil, sprinkle the vegetable seeds finely, and pour water, of course, the water is added with spiritual spring water. The Cui brothers and sisters placed the pot under the stove. Because the Cui family brothers and sisters have to stew bone broth every day, the stove fire has not been extinguished these days, and the warmest place in the house is under the stove.
"Xiao Miaomiao, you have to hurry up." After finishing his work, Cui Yuankang actually spoke to the clay pot.
Cui Xiaoxiao looked at the childish second brother, and her heart was full of joy, if only one day the eldest brother could be like this, the child still has the appearance of a child.
"Yuanyasu, have you memorized the book?" Cui Yuankang was happy, and the voice of the eldest brother came from behind.
Cui Yuanjian couldn't see Cui Yuankang being stupid, what did he say while holding a clay pot, could they understand? Yuanyasu is stupid enough, and he makes fools from time to time to remind others that he is stupid, which is really enough.
"Big brother, I'll carry it." Cui Yuankang said with a pout.
"Tiny, what about you? Why are you still standing, and you don't endorse it? Cui Yuanjian finished Cui Yuankang, looked at Cui Xiaoxiao who was watching the excitement on the side, and couldn't help but speak.
Cui Xiaoxiao also went to endorse with the second brother, and couldn't help complaining: Endorsement? Doesn't it mean that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented? I have read books for more than ten years in my previous life, Cui Xiaoxiao has read enough, and I have to read when I come to ancient times, and I am not happy. (To be continued)
