Chapter 25: Buying Seeds
"What my sister-in-law said is reasonable, just according to my sister-in-law's front yard, you can plant more." After hearing this, Qingwan also felt that it was better for the Qian family to arrange it this way.
"It's fine. Then plant some more in the front yard. Keke said.
For dinner, I have to say that Qian's is really good at cooking, a small green vegetable tofu ball soup, a fried chicken nugget with red pepper lettuce, a fried vegetarian dish and fungus meat slices, and a mixed cucumber, with a good match, although it is a home-cooked side dish, it can be regarded as a complete color, flavor and flavor. "Sister-in-law, you can go to the restaurant to be a cook!" Keke picked up a piece of chicken nuggets and said.
Speaking of cooking, Qian was also a little embarrassed, "How can it be as good as you say." After a pause, he continued: "Don't laugh at me, I like to make food, because I was hungry when I was in my mother's house, my father and mother died early, followed my uncle, and the uncle's family didn't like their daughter, not to mention that my niece, I can't eat enough every day, I can't stand the hunger, so I secretly went to the town to buy a clay pot with the money from selling embroidery and hid it in a cave in the mountain, thinking that sometimes I would cook some wild vegetables to eat, just eating wild vegetables is not only unpalatable, but also the more I eat, the more hungry I feel, I thought that when I cooked it, I would have some oil and salt to taste it, and it would be more delicious. Therefore, every day when I cook, I think about how to make the food more delicious, so that the uncle's family will let me cook more after they think it is delicious, in addition to cooking can quietly steal some food, you can also take the opportunity to secretly hide some salt and, when you are hungry, or accidentally provoke them to have no food to eat, you can also go to the cave to cook some wild vegetables to eat to relieve hunger when you go to collect firewood and pigweed. “
After listening to Qian's words, Keke smiled and said, "My sister-in-law is also a smart person." "In that case, it's really hard for her to think about making the meal good and hiding some spices.
Qingwan also smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you are so powerful." ”
Ke Ke said: "In the future, my sister-in-law will continue to think more, think about how to make it more delicious, and make more tricks, and when we make money, we will open a restaurant, and my sister-in-law will become a chef in the future." "Who knew that it would become a prophecy.
"I don't have that ability, what I'm thinking about now is to live my life and walk away. Now it's all thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't know how to live? Qian said gratefully.
"Isn't my sister-in-law also helping us, we still have a sister-in-law to help, otherwise I and Qingwan won't be able to keep enough grapes, not to mention that my sister-in-law's cooking is delicious, and we won't have this blessing if you don't come." This is sincere, Qian is diligent, not only the house is clean and tidy, but even his and Qingwan's clothes are also rushed to wash, washed cleanly, and hung neatly in the closet.
"I knew you didn't like what I was cooking." Qingwan said to Keke with some taste, changed the conversation again, and said with a smile: "However, I also like to eat the food cooked by my sister-in-law!" After speaking, he put a chopstick and the taste of the dish into his mouth and said.
"Everyone's likes are different, I don't just learn very slowly, and needlework is average!" Qian and Yuhan have been following Keke to read and write these nights, Yuhan has learned quickly and seriously, but Qian is a little struggling! Although it is a little difficult, I also know that Keke's heart is still full of energy to follow and learn, and some people who can't remember will come down to ask Zai Qingwan and Yuhan, who have already written down.
"Mother, stupid! Sister Keke taught, but my mother didn't know how to ask me. Yuhan on the side listened to it, and finally felt that he could say a word. As soon as he finished speaking, everyone smiled happily again.
"You kid!" Qian said angrily.
"Sister-in-law, there is one more thing to trouble you, my sister and I can't farm, our five acres of land, sister-in-law help us think about it, what should you plant? There's nothing to do tomorrow, so I'm going to buy some seeds and come back and plant them. After a pause, he continued: "Originally, the village chief said that the people in the village would help us plant, but I still want to spend money to directly invite people to plant better, everyone is busy, and we can't delay everyone to help us plant!" "It's different if it's money, everyone loses time, but they earn money. I can go and learn to farm, but if I have that time, it is better to take care of it in the jade realm, after all, the plants in it grow faster, which is also conducive to the increase of aura. Now that I have been in it for a long time, I obviously feel that my body is getting better and better, and the power of the desolation in my body is becoming more and more obvious.
When Qian heard that he was spending money to invite someone to farm the land, he immediately objected: "There are only five acres of land, so you still need to invite people, and now you are not in a hurry to plant, I will turn over the land first, and you go and buy some corn seeds and wheat seeds to plant back, and the backyard will plant some cabbage, spinach, radish, lettuce, and it will be convenient to eat vegetables in the future." "Qian has always been a hard-working person, as soon as he heard that he was going to invite someone, he hurriedly said that he could, he lived here now, and he would suffer more from doing more work, and he was used to doing these jobs before.
"Sister-in-law, you can't do it alone, didn't the chief also set aside a piece of land for you, please plant it with a few people, and it doesn't cost much, so why bother." Keke said.
Qian originally wanted to insist that he planted it again, but Keke continued: "Besides, I still like my sister-in-law to cook at home, Qingwan and I can't cook, Qingwan made the rice on the day you came, and I won't do it, I'm afraid that you won't be able to eat what I make." "If you let yourself make it, I have a lot of ideas, such as: make a Western meal, medium-rare steak with it, or have a fried mein ............ per person, not to mention whether you can make it, it is estimated that it is barely made, and no one will dare to be interested in half-cooked meat. And now that I'm used to eating Qian's cooking, Keke no longer wants to eat Qingwan's cooking, Qingwan is also serious about learning, and very attentive, and very creative, but the brain hole is a bit big, and some dishes that don't match can be fried together, that taste, Keke thought of two words: sour and cool, "That's okay, please three people, it is estimated that it can be planted in two days." Qian also thought that the two of them really couldn't cook, and thought that he had just come because Keke had peeled her hand when she was peeling potatoes at home, and if she was asked to cook again, she might hurt her hand again.
"Okay then, I'll go buy seeds tomorrow and come back." I've been busy making wine these days, and now I should give those acres of land when I'm free.
After eating, Qian rushed to clean up the dishes and chopsticks.
After everything was cleaned up, Keke came to the Jade Realm again, and after feeding the bird some essence blood, Fang scooped up another cup of Lingxi water and drank it before returning to the house to rest.
After drinking the water of the Lingxi, I always feel very good in spirit these days, and I am very relaxed, and I have never dreamed again.
Breakfast Qian boiled rice porridge and fried two side dishes, after breakfast Qian went to the village to ask someone to turn over the ground, Keke did not let Qingwan accompany him to the county seat, the reason is that Qian is going to the village to find someone to farm, let her take two children at home to watch the house, see Keke said this, Qingwan did not follow, is thinking about not going to it, embroidery at home, since learning embroidery with Qian, enthusiasm soared, holding the needle and thread all day long, quite a kind of daughter in the boudoir style.
Keke walked to the county seat alone, and now he is more and more familiar with the county seat, and he understands everything to buy on that street, and he understands it clearly, first to the flower stall and bought the flower seedlings before going to the store that sells seeds. When I came to the place where the seeds were sold, the owner of the seed shop was a middle-aged man, who looked quite blessed, with a round face and a belly that looked like she was pregnant in April, and greeted Mimi with a smile: "What kind of seeds do you want to buy?" ”
"Wheat seeds, cabbage, radishes, ......" reported all the seeds that Qian said.
"Well, how much of each?" The seed boss asked again.
“??” I forgot to ask the Qian family how much is appropriate, "I haven't farmed land either, but my family has ten acres of land, and the troublesome uncle looks at how much of each type to give me!" Keke said, thinking about buying more seeds and going back, and then going back and planting some seeds in the Jade Realm.
"Okay, girl, wait a minute!" Saying that, the boss went to weigh all kinds of seeds for Keke, and said to Keke while busy: "Girl, you haven't planted land, if there is no one at home, it's best to ask someone who can farm to help you plant after you take it back!" Ten acres of land is not much, please invite four or five people to plant it in two or three days, usually go to the field to take a look, the land should be served diligently. Seeing that Keke's dress didn't look like an ordinary farmer's family, and she didn't know how many seeds to buy, she said a few more words.
"Thank you, uncle, I think so too, please ask a few people to help with the planting." Keke is very grateful to the uncle who sells seeds.
Soon, the various seeds he wanted were wrapped and handed to Keke, a total of 180 yuan, and the money was given, Keke asked again: "Uncle, do you have any other seeds here besides these common seeds?" "Thinking about the dishes I eat every day, most of them are those few dishes, there are too few types of vegetables, broccoli that I used to like, stir-fried rape, tender pea tips, and crispy and delicious bamboo shoots...... However, there is none here.
"There is a bag of wild vegetable seeds, which my mother collected, and the taste is a little bitter, and she said to show me if anyone likes fresh ones, buy them and plant them to eat." Seed Boss said.
"Trouble Uncle show it to me." Keke said.
The seed boss took out a bag of seeds, a small cloth bag, in the corner of the shop, and shook the dust on it before opening it and throwing it on the counter. Pointing to the round black seeds that emerged, he said, "That's it." ”
Keke looked at it and was happy! This is actually one of the few seeds I know. Although I don't know how to plant, I will definitely not admit it, looking at the black and small round seeds pointed by the boss, yes, this is rape seeds! Thinking of the previous life in March, when a large area of rape flowers bloomed, but a large landscape, I didn't know what rapeseed looked like, I could know that it was because of a cauliflower season, and a few friends went out to see the flowers, the local farmers in order to sell more oil out, in front of their stall put a rub of rapeseed, to confirm that their oil is indeed rapeseed oil, so even with themselves also know rapeseed.
Keke still asked, "What kind of wild vegetable is this, and is there anyone here who grows it to eat?" ”
