"Let's talk about the method of potato planting," Banxia's brainstorming quickly began, recalling fragmentary modern planting information in his mind, but he said, "My father's book records that to plant potatoes, you need to wait for it to sprout, and then bury it in the soil." ”

Liu Niang nodded: "The potatoes in this basket have sprouts, and they can be buried directly!" ”

"Theoretically," Banxia thought for a while, and decided, "The open space on the west side is directly divided into two parts, half of which is planted with sweet potatoes and half with potatoes. ”

"Yes, ma'am."

"Sweet potatoes are planted in the same way as we just said, as for potatoes, choose five potatoes and cut them into pieces, leaving one to three sprouts on each one, and then choose a few whole potatoes and plant them directly without cutting them."

Liu Niang said: "Don't worry, madam, the slave maid has experience in farming, and the people in the village often praise me for my ability." ”

But Tao Niang wanted to speak and stopped.

This naturally did not escape Banxia's eyes: "Tao Niang, do you have any good suggestions?" ”

"Slave no, no ......"

Banxia interrupted, and his tone was serious: "You have to think about it before you talk about it!" I don't blame you for the destruction of the seeds, but if you don't do it with all your heart, ......"

Tao Niang's body trembled a little.

Banxia slowed down his tone: "You can say any ideas or suggestions, don't be afraid to say wrong, besides, people who do well are rewarded." ”

Liu Niang helped on the side: "Madam, she is serious in her work on weekdays, but she is a little timid, don't blame her." ”

After speaking, his elbow touched Tao Niang: "Madam is a kind-faced person, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Tao Niang raised her head carefully and glanced at Banxia - her apricot eyes were crooked, and her lady was very kind. In this way, I don't feel so nervous.

"The slave thinks that you can sprinkle some plant ash on the incision, and the food can grow better."

"Eh, this is a good way, why didn't the slave think of it!" Liu Niang patted Tao Niang's shoulder, "You're still smart." ”

Tao Niang lowered her head and smiled embarrassedly.

Mama Su whispered in Banxia's ear and explained: "Grass ash is the residue of plant burning, which is found in many farmhouse earthen stoves, and people often sprinkle plant ash in the field as fertilizer. ”

Banxia nodded in understanding, and looked at Tao Niang with appreciation: "The idea is very good, it is worthy of praise, continue to keep it." ”

glanced at Liu Niang again: "So, hard work, everyone, don't say much, let's start." ”

Banxia was not timid, and took a hoe to work with them.

Mama Su knew her wife's temperament, and it was difficult to change the things she decided, so she rolled up her sleeves and followed along.

Liu Niang and Tao Niang saw that Mrs. was doing it herself, and she worked even harder, and sighed in her heart: Mrs. is so good, Mrs. is so kind, and those noble ladies outside are not at all different, marrying her is a blessing for adults!

A few people worked for a while, and finally got busy.

The scorching sun was scorching, and Mama Su wiped the sweat on her forehead: "It's not early, madam, do you want to take a bath first, and then have lunch?" ”

"It's okay, it's good for everyone in the morning."

The two hurriedly said: "No hard work, no hard work." ”

Banxia said to Mama Su: "At noon, let the stove add some vegetables to the two of them to replenish their bodies, there is a lot of activity these days, don't be hungry!" ”

Then he turned his head to look at the two of them: "Although the food is eaten and full, it cannot be taken out." ”

"Thank you, ma'am." The two of them smiled.

"Let's go down."

"The slave and maid are gone." After the two of them put the farm tools neatly in the corner of the courtyard, they retreated.
