96. Sweet potato seedlings
"Don't recognize?" Following the master's gaze, Hua Jin reacted, and hurriedly said: "Master, these are not weeds, you can't pull them out, these are delicious, I planted them inside." ”
"Did you really grow it?" Hua Laohan was glad that he didn't pull it out when he found out, otherwise his granddaughter would have been sad.
"Uh-huh, I planted it" Hua Jin nodded quickly, "hehe...... I planted it secretly. ”
"You! Without saying a word, I almost pulled it out. The old man pointed to his granddaughter and shook his head.
"Oops! Didn't I forget? Hua Jin put his arm around the old man and pouted.
"You!" I can't see my granddaughter coquettish, and the old man looked at the brocade helplessly and dotingly.
"Can you tell you something like this?"
"Master, are baked sweet potatoes delicious?"
"You're saying you grow sweet potatoes?"
"Mm-hmm, not only sweet potatoes, but potatoes as well."
"Potatoes?" The old man with sweet potato flowers knows that his grandchildren have taken out a lot of them these days.
When the family is in the house, sometimes they will take a few exams or directly cook sweet potato rice to eat, as well as pull sweet potatoes, in short, every taste is old, and the old man likes to eat it very much.
The old man knew that this must be something in the blessed land again, but the potatoes were ......
"Yes, potato, sir...... That's it. Saying that, a hard thing appeared in Hua Jin's hand that was larger than her palm.
Looking at the things that suddenly appeared in his granddaughter's hand, the corners of Hua Laohan's mouth twitched, and he calmly picked up something called a potato from his granddaughter's hand and observed it carefully.
It's certain that the things that the granddaughter took out can be eaten, but what the old man is curious about is how to eat? And how does it taste?
When you think about the taste of sweet potatoes, it shouldn't be the same.
Otherwise, why would the granddaughter take it out and plant it secretly.
"What do you eat?"
"Master, there are many ways to eat potatoes, you can eat them as food, you can eat them fried, stewed them, and eat them cold, there are many ways to do it, I dare to say that you will definitely be able to fall in love with the taste."
"Is it so delicious?" Hua Laohan's appetite immediately rose when he was told by his granddaughter.
"Of course, Ye is waiting for me to let my mother fry, today we will eat vinegar and shredded potatoes, which will definitely make Ye Xiang lose his teeth" The more I talked, the more I wanted to eat it, and I conjured up a few potatoes as I spoke, and I wanted to run out of the house when I took it.
"Wait......" Looking at his granddaughter who said that the wind is the rain, Hua Laohan quickly stopped her, although he was also a little eager to taste it.
"Don't worry, I'm not done yet?"
"Master, what's the matter?" Hua Jin's slightly raised eyes blinked.
"How did you grow sweet potatoes and potatoes, can they bear them?" Knowing that it was a sweet potato flower, the old man was more concerned about this issue, lest his granddaughter waste the sweet potato and what kind of potatoes there were.
In fact, as early as the first time his granddaughter took out the sweet potato, Hua Laohan had the idea of planting it, but the time was not right, and he wanted to try to plant it when he came to spring next year.
didn't expect that his side hadn't started yet, but his granddaughter was more anxious than him.
"Master, it should be able to be planted, isn't it already germinating?" Hua Jin glanced at her grandfather carefully.
How do you listen to this, how can you not have enough confidence!
Hua Jin actually doesn't know much about growing vegetables, and he also groped for it, only knowing that sweet potatoes are planted whole, and the potatoes with sprouts are cut into pieces and buried in the soil, and in reality, except for a few pots of flowers that he raised to death, he really hasn't planted anything, at most he sprinkled a few handfuls of easy-to-grow green cabbage and coriander in the yard, and planted some onions and garlic These are not troublesome.
"Should?" The old man held his forehead with his big hand.
"Jin'er, you don't know how to plant?"
"I know, I know, I know," Hua Jin hurriedly said.
"It is to plant sweet potatoes whole in the soil, and as long as the potatoes that have sprouted are cut into pieces and buried in the soil, if nothing else, they will produce more sweet potatoes and potatoes in a few months."
"I just haven't planted it before, so I'm not sure, but the steps are absolutely right, and it's not germinated now, so it should be fine."
Looking at the sweet potato branches that grew lush and very energetic, she immediately felt a little more confident.
Hua Laohan also looked at the branches and leaves that had climbed away in the wooden box, and also felt that what his granddaughter said also made some sense, since it had sprouted, there was no problem.
If there is a problem, there is nothing, I already know what to plant, the big deal is to wait for the spring of the next year to try to plant again.
"And the sweet potato vine is also edible, and the taste is also very good." Hua Jin pointed to the box where the sweet potatoes were planted, and continued: "However, it is best not to eat potato vine leaves, there are slight toxins, and if you eat them, you must also blanch them with water." ”
"Sweet potatoes are a good thing." The old man looked at the sweet potatoes in the box like a baby.
"Mmmm, sir, don't accidentally pull it out."
"You're stupid." The old man blew his beard and glared at Hua Jin, but in front of his granddaughter, his grandfather's majesty only lasted for a moment at most, and the next moment he was afraid of frightening his granddaughter's eyes and bent again.
"Yes, yes, yes, Ye is the most powerful, I'm talking nonsense, I won't tell you, if you don't go over, your milk and mother's rice should be ready, and you won't be able to eat vinegary shredded potatoes."
After speaking, he didn't forget to make a grimace at his grandfather, and Hua Jin ran out with a smile.
"This kid ......" was amused by his granddaughter's lively appearance, the old man shook his head, and then squatted in front of the wooden box that belonged to the sweet potato, and the more he looked at it, the happier he became.
When it was time to eat, there was a large plate of dishes on the table - vinegar-flavored shredded potatoes, which won the love of the whole family.
As for the question raised by the Hua brothers who had never eaten this dish and looked curious, the old man Hua directly glared at him.
"What? Some of them are not good at eating, and they can't stop your mouths when they eat. ”
Then neither of the two brothers dared to speak indiscriminately, but the speed at which the chopsticks in their hands were caught in the dish was not slow at all.
So far, Huajin has unlocked a new dish for the family, potatoes.
It has become one of the favorite dishes of the children, especially the potato cakes, the mashed potatoes are never tired of eating, and the sister fried the potato strips with secret ingredients to make the little four even more shocked, if it is not pressed by the mother, I am afraid that I will pester my sister to fry the potato strips when I have time.
Unconsciously, more than half a month passed, and the dishes in the wooden box did not disappoint the Hua family, and they could eat fresh vegetables every day.
What leek box, leek flat food, leek eggs, vegetarian fried greens, fried meat with greens, cold vegetables, fried beans, garlic eggplant, fried every day, the excess is directly put into the blessed land of Huajin, anyway, there is no waste of what can not be eaten.
After eating the evening meal, the family sat in the hall again, with a relaxed expression.
Now the life at home is unimaginable before, not only three meals a day, but also a different way to eat, the meat has not been missing, and everyone has gained weight at a speed visible to the naked eye.
These are all because of the flowers, so that the family's eyes are more and more spoiled.
It's really afraid of melting in my mouth, and I'm afraid of falling off in the palm of my hand.
……
"Xiu, the weather is good these days, and there are a lot of vegetables at home, why don't you bring some back to your parents' house tomorrow, so that your in-laws can also taste it and improve it."
The old woman took her doting gaze away from her granddaughter and said to her daughter-in-law.
Several acquaintances in the village have sent food, and the daughter also asked her son to send some a few days ago, and the in-laws are naturally not missing.
