Looking at the ripe corn, Gao Zhong walked to the location where the corn was planted, and then found a few poor-quality corns and pulled them down. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

After opening the shell, the crystal corn was displayed in front of Gao Zhong, Gao Zhong pressed it with his fingers, and the pressed corn kernels also burst in an instant, flowing juice, very tender!

The golden time of corn is actually very short, the really delicious corn is only about twenty-three days, and the corn at that time is not only tender, but also sweet and very delicious.

However, after the golden time, the corn will become very old and can only be stored, kept for seed or otherwise processed.

Looking around, there are more than ten corn plants in total, all of which are growing very well, and some even have grown three corn cobs, which are obviously excellent varieties.

After another selection, Gao Zhong picked nine smaller corns, and the rest was reserved for next year's planting.

After picking the corn, Gao Zhong returned home, handed the corn to Gao Qiao'er, who was still afraid of Gao Wei, and smiled: "Auntie, this corn is ripe, if you don't eat it, you will be old, these roots will be cooked first, one of us will each have one, and I will send the rest to the three elders." ”

"That's it?"

Gao Qiao'er was taken aback, looked at the corn in her hand, and looked at it for a long time.

"It's just boiled like this, and all you can eat is these small beans on the outside. Leave it alone for the time being, wait until the autumn harvest to pick off the corn, peel off the corn kernels, and dry them with soybeans for a few days! ”

The treatment of corn is also very simple, the corn that is not eaten is directly put in the field, and when the corn is ripe, the corn stalk will slowly die by itself, and the corn on it will slowly dry up.

In autumn, the corn is picked directly, and the corn has already dried out after half a summer, so it is easy to peel off the corn kernels. It can be stored after drying in the autumn, and the corn stalks can also be fed directly into the stove for firewood.

Gao Qiao'er nodded, indicating that she understood, and soon went into the kitchen, lit a fire, boiled a pot of water, and threw the corn into it.

After a while, the corn was cooked, and under Gao Zhong's teaching, the family began to eat corn.

"Brother Zhong, this corn is much better than potatoes, and the sweet potato vine is not as good!"

After taking a bite, Gao Shangwu's eyes widened, and he took several more bites!

"This thing, it tastes good, and it seems that the yield is also good!"

Gao Wei ate corn and nodded, also satisfied.

Gao Qiao'er on the side stared at the corn in his hand and frowned: "This corn is very good, it grows the same as sorghum, can it be planted with potatoes and sweet potatoes, I feel that it is still a waste of land to plant potatoes and sweet potatoes in the field......"

Gao Qiao'er deserves to take care of the crops often, and quickly asked the key point.

"We will eat this corn first, and keep the rest for seeding, and we will continue to plant next year, and we can let go of eating when there is more!"

Gao Zhong didn't forget to ring the alarm bell to Gao Shangwu, this guy has a history of picking potatoes: "I'll take the rest of the rest here to the third elder and Master Zhang first!" ”

After speaking, Gao Zhong put the remaining five corns in a basket and walked in the direction of the yellow cypress tree.

At this moment, it is very lively under the yellow cypress tree.

The officials and military households of the government have not yet left, they have already set up a fire in the open space under the tree, and it is obvious that they will not leave tonight.

Zhang Youke and Feng Lu were still chatting about family and country affairs in the bamboo house, while the little scholar sat outside the house and chatted with a group of domestic servants.

And Yang Sanlao, the village chief and others are busy taking care of the government servants and military households, and everyone has a clear division of labor and is also very orderly.

Walking to the front of the bamboo house, Gao Zhong first greeted Zhang Youke through the window, and then walked in the direction of the gate, and when he passed the gate, Gao Zhong took a small corn and quietly handed it to the little scholar.

Then he walked into the bamboo house casually: "Master Zhang, Lord Feng, this corn is ripe, I picked a few of them, cooked them and sent them to you!" ”

After speaking, Gao Zhong took out the two largest corns from the basket and handed them to Zhang Youke and Feng Lu respectively.

"This is the third crop?"

Zhang Youke picked it up and smelled it, and then tried to take a bite: "It tastes good, how is the yield?" ”

"The yield is also very good!"

Gao Zhong responded.

"You baby is so stingy, why don't you take more?"

Feng Lulian nibbled a few bites of corn and then looked at the basket in Gao Zhong's arms, ready to reach out and grab it.

But he was stopped by Zhang Youke: "You, can't you get rid of your problems over the years?" This baby is more measured than you, and you can arrange the rest of Gao Zhong's rest! ”

"Okay, Lord Feng, I'm really sorry, I have a pitiful amount of this crop at present, and the rest of this year will be kept for seeding, waiting for next year's planting. I'll be absolutely happy with you until next year! ”

Gao Zhong waved his hand towards Feng Lu.

"Just remember it......

Feng Lu nodded and waved his hand at Gao Zhong.

Then Gao Zhong walked out of the bamboo house with steps, and then walked towards Gao Lianquan.

"Grandpa, you take this corn first!"

Gao Zhong handed the corn to Gao Quan.

"Okay, thank you!"

Gao Lianquan took the corn, looked at it, and learned how to eat it from Gao Zhong, and then nodded with satisfaction.

Then Gao Zhong came to Yang Sanlao again: "Grandpa Yang, the corn is ripe, I'll send you one!" ”

"Okay, I'm hungry too!"

Yang Sanlao nodded and took it.

"What is this? Same as potatoes? ”

At this time, the village chief and the village Zheng also came over, and they had already begun to pay attention when Gao Zhong appeared, as soon as this baby appeared, he took this stick-like thing and gave it around, and then Zhang and Feng Lu and the others began to gnaw, and now when they came to Yang Sanlao's side, they naturally came over.

"It just so happens that this thing is a new crop introduced by Gao Zhong's family, you should also try it!"

Yang Sanlao had already heard about the corn, so it was easy to dispose of, and soon broke the corn into three pieces, keeping the longest section for himself, and giving the rest to the village chief and the village zheng.

"New crops?"

The two brothers, the village chief and the village leader, glanced at each other, then took the corn suspiciously and studied it in detail.

"Look, this thing is meant to be eaten!"

Yang Sanlao laughed, and then first opened his mouth and bit down, after biting the first bite, Yang Sanlao nodded, stopped talking, and ate corn quietly.
