The second watch, seeking pink...... Lian Man'er thought about it and nodded. Then go with Xiao Qi to find Lian Shouxin.

"Want to shave sweet potatoes to eat? Are sweet potatoes edible now? Even Shouxin asked.

"I can eat it, my sister said." Xiao Qi rushed to say.

Lian Man'er smiled and rubbed Xiao Qi's head.

"Dad, I've counted the days, and the sweet potatoes will definitely be edible now." Lian Man'er said.

Wang Youheng had promised to write to the person who sent him sweet potatoes to ask about the details of the cultivation and cultivation of sweet potatoes. Later, I received a reply, according to the letter, this sweet potato can be harvested three or four months after planting. Lian Shouxin once asked Lin Ashui, the person from Fuzhou Mansion who helped them cultivate sweet potato seedlings, and the result was the same.

Even Man'er vaguely Chapter 354 Hu Sweet Potato remembers that the growth period of sweet potatoes is shorter than that of crops such as corn and sorghum, and it has been planted for more than three months now, although it is less than four months, but there must already be sweet potatoes to eat.

"Okay, then let's go to the sweet potatoes." Even Shouxin agreed.

Lian Shouxin put on a calf cart, Lian Man'er and Xiaoqi took an iron pickaxe and put a basket on the car, and then the sisters and brothers also climbed into the car and sat down.

Because of the sign erected by the county magistrate, the crops around the cornfield have benefited, and even if no one looks green, they have not suffered any losses. Lian Man'er's sweet potatoes are planted on the ground next to the corn field, and the growth is very gratifying.

When they arrived at the ground, several people got out of the car, and Lian Man'er and Xiao Qi carried baskets and followed Lian Shouxin into the sweet potato field. As for the calf cart, it was placed on the ground, and the little ox was allowed to eat the grass on the ground by himself.

Again and again, he picked up a ridge, squatted down, and pulled the sweet potato seedlings apart first, revealing the sweet potato ridge. First, I gently threw away the soil on the top layer, and when I saw the sweet potatoes buried in the ground, I estimated the position and used an iron pickaxe to plane it.

First dig out two large potatoes, and even keep the letter and put the iron pickaxe aside. Squatted down again, took the sweet potato in his hand and picked up the 354th chapter of the sweet potato. That sweet potato is bigger than the palm of even the trustworthy hand.

"This is really a good thing, this one, I weighed it, even if it is less than two catties, it is not much worse." Lian Shouxin's face showed a happy smile.

What could make a crop man happier than a high-yielding crop? High crop yields. It means that the same land can harvest more food, the family can eat more, have more surplus food to exchange for money, and can live a more prosperous life.

Lian Man'er took the sweet potato from Lian Shouxin's hand, the sweet potato was full of growth, and a part of the outer skin was accidentally slashed off by Lian Shouxin just now, revealing a snow-white flesh like a white pear inside. There is also a trace of slurry water secreted out, held in his hand, and pressed his hand heavily.

Xiao Qi also squatted down beside Lian Man'er. Two small hands held a large potato, smiling toothless.

After smirking for a while, Lian Man'er and Xiao Qi put the two sweet potatoes into the basket, and then retreated a little, allowing Lian Shouxin to continue digging sweet potatoes. A sweet potato seedling usually grows several large sweet potatoes underneath, and then the roots continue to expand around and below, and the sweet potatoes are not so big. Like this sweet potato seedling, there are only three sweet potatoes of this size, and the next three or four are smaller. However, most of them are also about one catty, and the smallest one is more than half a catty. When you dig deeper, there is a bunch of small sweet potatoes connected to the sweet potato whiskers, the smallest one is only as thick as a carrot.

Three sweet potato seedlings were planed in a row, and the two baskets carried by Lian Man'er and Xiao Qi were full. Even the faithful took the pickaxe. I won't continue to plan.

"Let's plane these first, I think let this sweet potato grow longer, and those small sweet potato cubs can still grow bigger." Even keep your word.

Two baskets of sweet potatoes, enough for them to eat one or two meals, should be regarded as a tooth sacrifice first. The sweet potatoes have grown like this, which is already very good, but after the sweet potatoes are dug out, they are not easy to store, and their family is not short of food now, so let the sweet potatoes grow a few more days, and the harvest will be better, this is for sure.

Load the two baskets of sweet potatoes into the car, and take the torn sweet potato seedlings into the car. People eat sweet potatoes, and sweet potato seedlings can be fed to pigs. Lian Shouxin asked Lian Man'er and Xiao Qi to play in the field for a while, he went to the cornfield to look at it again, and then went to the meadow next to him to cut a bundle of grass.

The industrious crop is often like this, and in their eyes there is work all the time and everywhere.

When the three of them returned to the shop, Zhang's, Lian Zhi'er and Wulang looked at the sweet potatoes and knew that this was just the harvest of three sweet potato seedlings, and they were all overjoyed.

"Then let's eat sweet potatoes at night?" Zhang asked.

"Uh-huh." Xiao Qizhong nodded. Since he got sweet potatoes from Wang Youheng, Xiao Qi thought about eating them. However, the original sweet potatoes were used to cultivate sweet potato seedlings, and Xiao Qi had waited for more than three months.

Of course, even Man'er has been waiting for more than three months, and now she wants to drool when she looks at the sweet potato.

"Okay, I'll brush the pot." Zhang said with a smile.

"Then let's go wash sweet potatoes." Lian Man'er said.

Sweet potatoes have soil on them, and they must be washed with water before they can be boiled and eaten. The basket of sweet potatoes was carried into the yard and placed by the well, and Gorou and Lian Zhi'er fetched water from the well, and the children squatted at the edge of the well and began to wash the sweet potatoes. Two baskets of sweet potatoes, they couldn't eat one meal, so they only washed more than half, and the rest of the sweet potatoes were not washed first, but stored in a cool place.

Carrying the washed sweet potatoes into the house again, Zhang had already brushed the pot, put the sweet potatoes into the pot one by one, and placed them layer by layer, the big ones were placed below, and the small ones were placed on top, and then poured in water to flood the sweet potatoes. As for those particularly small sweet potatoes, they can't be boiled together in water, because then the sweet potatoes will be cooked too badly and they won't taste good. These particularly small sweet potatoes should be placed on a separate curtain and steamed from water. In this way, boiled and steamed sweet potatoes are made in one pot.

When boiling sweet potatoes and cooking rice, you must master the heat. Zhang's first time boiling sweet potatoes, as a skillful instruction, and asked Lin Ashui in advance, and the heat of this pot, Zhang's mastered it very well.

Bring the pot to a boil, then add a fire, wait for about a quarter of an hour, open the wrap, the sweet potatoes in the pot are ripe, and all the water is dry, so that the boiled sweet potatoes taste the best.

In the Thirty Mile Camp, it is generally said that it is rarely cooked, but that it is said to be huh, which refers to this cooking method.

The sweet potatoes exhaled in this way are not only cooked just right, but also the sweet potatoes placed at the bottom of the pot are boiled dry by the water, and the skin will be crispy by the hot pan roasting, and the attractive sweet potato oil will come out, which is very similar to the roasted sweet potatoes.

Lian Man'er likes to eat potato, and she also likes this kind of sweet potato that exhales oil.

For dinner, the family ate in the shop. In addition to a large pot of sweet potatoes, Zhang also boiled a few salted duck eggs and a pot of cucumber slice soup.

"Don't just eat sweet potatoes, drink more soup." Seeing a few children holding sweet potatoes and eating fragrantly, Zhang said.

"Yes, don't eat too much sweet potato. Lao Lin said, this thing, eat too much heartburn. "Even keep the word. Lao Lin naturally refers to Lin Ashui. The so-called heartburn does not mean that the heart is uncomfortable after eating, but that the stomach will feel uncomfortable.

This is the native language of the thirty-mile camp. Heartburn, heart, the heart, the heart here refers to the stomach. Why is there such a strange statement, no one can intercede, not even Man'er herself can't think of a reason.

"This sweet potato, will it be given to his father and his grandmother?" While eating, Lian Shouxin asked.

"I think, don't send it." Zhang thought about it for a while, and said, "It's not that I am reluctant to give it to the old man. ”

"I thought so too. There are a lot of people in our room, and this thing is a new thing in our house, so let's hide it first. When the autumn harvest comes, let's send it to his grandfather and his grandmother. "Even keep your word.

Even Man'er didn't speak, in fact, they didn't need to discuss at all, so they naturally stayed in the shop to call sweet potatoes and eat dinner, and the big guys already had a tacit understanding in their hearts.

"Man'er, according to what you just said, this sweet potato has a higher yield than corn." After dinner, Gorou said to Lian Man'er.

The yield of sweet potatoes is higher than that of corn, and even Man'er remembers that when she was in her previous life, some places use excellent sweet potato varieties, and the yield per mu can reach more than 5,000 kilograms, which is the general sweet potato, and the yield per mu is at least two or three thousand catties.

And according to their harvest today, the yield per mu of this sweet potato is also more than 1,000 catties.

This production is quite impressive in this era.

"Then we must promote this sweet potato, in this world, there will be no place for famine, and no one will starve to death." Lian Shouxin said slowly.

"Didn't Fuzhou Mansion say that there are more and more people growing sweet potatoes, so I don't know what is going on in other places?" Gorou said, "It's around us, I haven't heard of any kind." ”

"We definitely don't have one in this county." Lian Man'er said, otherwise no one would have sent sweet potatoes as a rare thing to the imperial doctor.

"Then we should let sweet potatoes be promoted." Gorou said.

"That's a good thing, it should." Even keep the word.

To promote, it means that most of the harvested sweet potatoes should be kept as seeds, and there will be fewer that can be left to eat, Xiao Qi sighed slightly, grabbed a tender sweet potato cub and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Last time the sixth master came, we forgot to talk about this sweet potato." Zhang's Road.

"It's not that I forgot to say it." Lian Man'er said.

"Do you want to hide this from the Shen family?" Lian Shouxin asked in surprise.

"Not really." Lian Man'er shook her head.

Corn is the first part, and sweet potatoes, at least people from Fuzhou Prefecture are planting, and the meaning between the two is different. Moreover, although she knew that the yield of sweet potatoes per mu was higher, when Shen Liu came, she still couldn't come up with empirical evidence, so it was difficult to say. Also, this sweet potato is obtained from Wang Youheng. Although Wang Youheng said that he gave the sweet potatoes to them without any conditions, but about the sweet potatoes, Lian Man'er still wanted to ask Wang Youheng what he meant first.

"That's the right idea...... The second watch, ask for pink. (To be continued)RQ!!
