Chapter 96: Honesty
Yuan Ning's honesty made him feel that even if his identity was known to her in the future, it would not be too difficult for them to get along with each other, and he had reported it in advance, and he was not afraid of any lawsuits in the future.
"You bought a few acres of land in the suburbs, didn't you?" He asked suddenly.
Yuan Ning nodded, very calmly: "Yes, I bought it." I didn't tell you about it because it was my private asset. ”
Su Heting couldn't help but smile and said, "I didn't mean to interfere with you, but I just think it's very rare, what you grow over there...... At first, it looked similar to sorghum seedlings, but now that it has grown up, it can be seen that it is thicker than sorghum stalks, and it is not as tall as sorghum, and now it is starting to show ears, which is also different from sorghum, so what is that? ”
"Don't you remember?" Yuan Ning's eyes widened slightly, "That's the kind of golden thing that your friend Yu Gongzi brought before, I tried to eat it, and it was quite delicious, so I went to buy a few acres of land in the spring and tried to plant one, there were too few seeds, only enough to plant two acres of land, and the rest of the land was planted with apple seeds that you gave later." ”
"Apples?" Su Heting was surprised, "What do you mean...... Is that fruit called an apple? ”
Yuan Ning touched her nose, and for a while, she said that she was bald, but she would never admit it, "Didn't Yu Gongzi say it?" Anyway, I heard from people, not me who came up with it.
"And that golden thing, isn't it called corn? I thought that the cultivation would be comparable to sorghum rice to a certain extent. ”
Su Heting touched his chin and fell into thought.
Yuan Ning didn't bother, thinking that Ji Xiu was basically able to walk now, so she should make her some toys.
The two were relatively silent. There was silence in the hall.
The curtain of the door was raised, and the view from the inside of the room was clear. Ji Xiu was originally strolling around the yard under the care of Aunt Zhang, and saw a golden and brilliant dandelion in the shade under the steps, so he went over and dragged it down, swayed, and cautiously went up the steps, came to the door, held the door frame with one hand, slowly crossed the threshold, and then trotted to find Yuan Ning, "Eldest sister!" ”
One year and two months old, Ji Xiu would say a little more, holding up the small yellow flower high, "Here you go!" ”
Yuan Ning took it with a smile, hugged her on his lap, and kissed her on her pink and tender face, "That's good!" ”
Ji Xiu is well raised, with a little face like an apple, two eyes like black grapes, the whole person is fat, and there are two small tugs on his head, cute and cute.
Su Heting looked at Yuan Ning and asked, "Are you sure that this corn can be eaten, and it is comparable to sorghum rice?" ”
Yuan Ning blinked, raised his hand to sort out the red head rope on Ji Xiu's small tug, and didn't look at Su Heting, "What do you mean by asking?" I just say that my own taste is like this, and I am trying to breed and breed, and who can say what the future holds? ”
Su Heting's heart was settled, the little girl didn't tell the truth, no matter what channel she went through, anyway, this girl just knew that corn was a good thing.
He asked, "How's the yield?" ”
Yuan Ning still didn't look at him, but said: "You see that there is only one ear on one sorghum tree, but there are two ears on one corn tree, roughly estimated, the yield can be twice that of sorghum?" I'm not sure, don't believe me! ”
Su Heting had a smile on his face, of course he believed it!
He added: "I have a way to get another batch of corn seeds, but is it too late to plant them now?" ”
Yuan Ning nodded: "It's too late, if you want to plant, you can only wait for next year." ”
Su Heting took the opportunity to say: "Then can the corn produced by your two acres of land be kept as grain seeds?" ”
"Why?" Yuan Ning blurted out, "I'm going to leave some of the seeds for planting next year, and I'll eat the rest by myself." ”
Corn is rich in dietary fiber and vitamins and is a very good whole grain.
Seeing her like this, Su Heting's heart became even firmer, "I will buy more land in the coming year, and I will ask you to help cultivate corn when the time comes, I don't know what you think?" ”
Yuan Ning became vigilant, "What are you doing when you grow a lot of corn?" "Does that mean stockpiling grain?
Su Heting had the urge to identify himself on the spot, but when he saw that Aunt Zhang was also guarding the door, he dispelled his thoughts, "What I'm going to do, you will know soon, and I promise that I will never harm anyone." ”
Yuan Ning pouted, "It's hard to say, you think it's something that is beneficial to everyone, maybe it has already violated the vested interests of some people, and when the time comes, I don't know how many difficulties and obstacles you will encounter." ”
Su Heting sighed: "Sometimes I can't believe it, you are a teenage girl, sometimes, you see the problem too thoroughly, your words are too sharp, you can often be to the point, and sometimes some of the suggestions put forward can also be called 'high-level'." ”
Yuan Ning stuck out his tongue, revealing a bit of coquettishness that belonged to his little daughter, "You really can't answer when you say that!" ”
Su Heting smiled, "This matter is settled." I'll get back to you when the time comes. The corn you grow yourself is naturally edible, but I want you to keep some more seeds. If this thing is done well, it will even benefit the common people. ”
Yuan Ning's big black and white eyes turned around a few times, originally she was not very curious about Su Heting's identity, but at this moment, she couldn't help but feel a little curious.
After saying this, Su Heting got up to say goodbye and hurried away.
Two days later, on the first day of the fifth month, it was Yuan Ning's birthday, and she would be thirteen years old on this day.
More than thirteen years old, cardamom tips in early February.
Yuan Ning eats well, exercises well, jumps in height quickly, has a little baby fat on her face, and already has a bright and moving appearance of a girl, but she doesn't pay attention to dressing, she always dresses as a boy in Su Ri, and she doesn't look so outstanding.
Bo Zhong discussed with Aunt Zhang early, asked her to quietly measure Yuan Ning's size, and asked someone to make her a new dress outside, which was a skirt.
After a few people discussed, they also prepared a few head flowers for Yuan Ning.
On this day, it happened that the school was also a day of rest, and the three of them were at home.
Yuan Ning was sent by Bo Zhong in the morning, and Aunt Zhang also went to buy a lot of vegetables and meat at the request, and Zhang gathered a large table of dishes.
When Yuan Ning came back, he found that several younger brothers and sisters had all changed into new clothes, and he was a little puzzled: "What are you doing when you look so good?" Where do you want to go? ”
"Eldest sister, you have it too!" Zhong Ling pushed her into the room.
Seeing a new set of clothes neatly folded on the bed, Yuan Ning was still a little stunned, with a light pink short undergarment, a light purple long skirt, and a light white embroidered butterfly with a large sleeve pattern.
The color is not out of the ordinary, but it looks pleasing to the eye.
"This? For me? Yuan Ning still couldn't believe it, and looked down at the dusty overalls he was wearing, which were ordinary men's clothes.
"Eldest sister!" Zhong Ling reached out to help her untie her belt, "It's about changing, it's about changing!" We have something to tell you. ”
