Yu Mingyue swallowed her saliva and didn't dare to meet her mother's gaze.

The originally proud bright smile on her face was a little more flattering, and she turned to look at the other two adults who were praising her, and urged eagerly: "Grandpa, didn't you say that you still want to rent a tractor, take me with you." ”

"You kid, you haven't picked the green peppers in this field yet." Yu Tianzhou saw that his granddaughter was so anxious, pinched her very spirited little face, and said with a doting smile: "When you carry all the dishes home, grandpa will carry you with you." ”

After Yu Tianzhou finished speaking, he directly arranged for his son and daughter-in-law to start carrying vegetables to the house, while he picked up green peppers in the field.

There is no way, the Yu family only has a total of five big baskets, and they are all woven by Kong Mingfu, who has craftsmanship. Yu Zhiqing and his wife had already carried four of them earlier, and now they have just loaded four baskets, which may have more than 200 catties of eggplant.

"Don't take the basket when you go back, just pick up the three baskets that your father made." Yu Tianzhou picked a few big green peppers, and he was very uneasy and confessed.

The eggplant is very stingy, as long as it is bruised, it is really not good-looking.

These, in fact, Yu Zhiqing and his wife also know, but this Yu Tianzhou has always been used to taking ideas, and if he doesn't explain the last sentence, he feels uncomfortable.

Yu Mingyue stood at the head of the field and sent her parents away with a sweet smile, and she was greatly relieved.

Actually, she really has a lot of heart because of her weak heart.

The tomatoes planted today, although they are not as scientific as later, are planted according to the ridge and then built a long bamboo shelf, but they are also different from the tomato trees that climb all over the ground when there is no production.

At this time, scientific farming has begun to be promoted, and the tomato ridge is also based on each tomato tree, and a thick branch called "standing station" is inserted here, and the tomato vine is pulled up to climb and grow, which not only increases the fruit setting rate of tomatoes, but also makes the grown tomatoes look better, so as to achieve quality and increment, and increase farmers' income.

On the ridge of the ground nearly a foot high, there was a dense vine of tomato trees, which had already blocked Yu Mingyue's small figure. The three adults in the eggplant field could only see her disappear from time to time, and then move forward with her little head out, instinctively judging that she had picked tomatoes in the field.

Although Kong Xiaoyu couldn't believe it at first, and she also had some doubts in her heart, she "saw" her daughter picking tomatoes in the tomato field with her own eyes, and when she looked at the tomatoes carefully, she was only worried about whether her daughter had picked up the sick and red tomatoes on the ridge.

Kong Xiaoyu's experience two months ago let her know that this time the tomatoes should also be able to sell at a good price. So after discovering that all the tomatoes were fresh and red, she rubbed her eyes in disbelief, and her heart was full of joy.

In Yu Mingyue's space, there are also green peppers that were priced as low as 4 wen a pound last year, but at this time, he didn't dare to play any tricks, just honestly teased his grandfather and picked the big green peppers in the field with his hands and feet.

The family carried and picked the back, and it only took more than an hour to pick all the vegetables home.

Yu Mingyue looked at the four baskets in the gate, there were more than 200 large eggplants of nearly 300 catties, and that basket, 6 baskets, and 200 catties of big green peppers, which was called a beauty in her heart.

Seeing that the three adults had set up the dishes and were about to go to the main room, Yu Mingyue was a little anxious.

This will have to be transported to the city early the next morning to sell the vegetables, is not in the 30s ~ 20 more than the temperature, dry for more than ten hours, otherwise the water evaporation to reduce the weight is a trivial matter, these vegetables become a big deal to affect the price.

In any case, you have to do some protective measures to keep it fresh.

"Grandpa, don't we pour some water or cover our food?"

Watering? The three adults turned their heads at the same time.

Kong Xiaoyu was only stunned for a moment, then understood, and said with a smile: "Our family doesn't water this dish, only those treacherous vendors pour water on this dish to increase some weight." If we want to come and go constantly, we can't do those speculative things. When I turned around to pull my daughter, I talked about the "speculation" of those vendors selling vegetables in the city.

A treacherous trader? Speculation?

Yu Mingyue was stunned for a moment, and instantly remembered that when her mother was in the city, after seeing those vendors drenching water on vegetables, she had whispered to her with disdain and dissatisfaction that she said a word or two about "treacherous" and "taking advantage", and at that time it was a very unsightly injustice.

At this time, I listened to my mother standing next to her, telling my grandfather and father about the past, she couldn't persuade her to explain anything, but she couldn't help but laugh in her heart.

People have water on the vegetables, because they left it when they washed the vegetables at home, and they poured water while selling, on the one hand, to keep the vegetables fresh and beautiful, and on the other hand, some people are afraid that they really want to take the opportunity to add some weight.

However, some experienced aunts, when buying vegetables, will take the vegetables and shake them with enough strength to shake off the excess water.

The battle of wits and courage between the vegetable seller and the vegetable buyer in this regard may really originate from this period.

Because before the production is delivered to the household, the farmers' vegetables are sold directly to the vegetable purchasing station, and the vegetable station only requires the yellow leaves of the vegetable roots to be removed, and will not be cleaned. If you find that there is moisture on the dish, you will not accept it or buy it cheaply.

When Yu Mingyue curled the corners of her mouth and finished thinking, she saw that the three of them were like-minded and did not do "speculation" things, and began to have a headache.

But it was only for a moment, and she said with a puzzled face: "But the last time I went to the city with my mother, I saw that the vegetables sold by others were very fresh, although they had water." If we leave it like this, will it be as dry and ugly tomorrow as the ones my grandmother picked from the vegetable garden yesterday? ”

Yu Tianzhou looked at his granddaughter's wrinkled little face, grinned at the corner of his mouth, and wanted to explain, but suddenly paused.

He looked sideways at his son and daughter-in-law, and when he saw that both of them had a pensive expression on their faces, he also thought about it.

Isn't it, although these eggplants and green peppers are not easy to dehydrate, and they are also placed under the tool shed in the gate, but now on a hot day in July, it will not be sold until tomorrow morning, and this dish will really become a little ugly.

Yu Tianzhou's slender eyes were on one side, and he looked at his daughter-in-law next to him and asked, "Kong Xiaoyu, the last time you were in the city, you saw that the vegetables sold by those people were drenched in water?" ”

"Hmm." Kong Xiaoyu nodded affirmatively, looked at his father-in-law and said: "They are all drenched in water, some are special buckets of water, tied into small bundles while cleaning, and sold on the stalls spread on the ground with plastic sheets, some are tied, and from time to time they also take bottles of water or military kettles to sprinkle water on the dishes."

When he talked carefully, Kong Xiaoyu also figured out some ways in his heart, and he knew why no one cared about these bright "speculation" things.

When no one reminds them and they don't know it, the family doesn't take it seriously, but after finding out the way, as croppers, they all know what method they should use to keep these vegetables fresh, and they won't cover, steam, or scratch the vegetables.

Even Kong Mingying, who came back from the vegetable garden later, knew the whole story of the matter, and they all got busy with it.

Yu Zhiqing first found a few handfuls of dry straw, took the grass to the ditch and soaked it in water, and then directly vacated a basket, spread a layer of wet straw on the bottom of the basket and around it, and then carefully put the vegetables into the basket one by one, and then covered the noodles with a layer of wet straw.

Even the red tomatoes, which were weighed once by Yu Tianzhou and weighed only 10 and a half catties, were also put into a small back basket and treated in the same way.

When looking at the whole dish, the whole family breathed a sigh of relief.

Yu Mingyue, who had already recovered from the surprise, raised the corners of her mouth high, and when she grinned a neat little white tooth, she smiled excitedly: "Hehe~~ Grandpa, let's go, we rented a tractor, and we can go into the city to sell it tomorrow." ”
