Wang Can nodded: "That's the reason!" But when they went to Fucheng, I also went with them, so that there was a guarantee on the way. When the milk comes back, everything is arranged, and then they leave, I guess I can still plant a round or two of watermelons. Sister, when the time comes, you can help watch the dots at home, and I want to bring a few watermelons with me by the way. ”

"You want to make money selling watermelons?"

Wang Can shook his head: "No, if I want to sell, wouldn't it be more convenient to find Brother Cao directly?" I took the watermelon with me, just to ask Sister Jiaojiao and Uncle Jiaojiao to taste it, and I wanted them to try to grow it at home after they tasted it. As for whether they can grow it themselves without spiritual spring water, it's up to them. If you can grow it, it is better to keep it for yourself and eat it or sell it than not to grow it at all. ”

"Well, it's up to you. If you grow a lot of watermelons, you can sell them to Brother Cao. You go and soak the watermelon seeds first, and I'll put them all away in the field. Since Su Mingshan said that Qin Muyang would be fine for a while, he should be able to afford to wait for an extra hour. ”

Because there are winter squash, pumpkins and watermelons in the ground, Li Yuan is afraid of hurting his hands, so it is convenient to cut them directly with a sickle.

As for the potatoes, it will be too late for Wang Can to harvest them himself when they are empty.

When Wang Can came out with the soaked watermelon seeds, Li Yuan's watermelon was almost finished.

Even if she doesn't have common sense, she knows that in general, a watermelon will bear several fruits.

But in order to make sure that the watermelon still has a taste or something, you have to remove a little bit, and leave one or two watermelons like this.

However, Wang Can did not, and a watermelon seedling actually bore five or six fruits.

She planted six, and produced thirty-two of them.

Let's look at the size, even the smallest one has a feeling of nearly ten pounds.

This is to be put on hold in modern times, which can be said to be not scientific at all.

However, whether it is rebirth, or wearing books, or space and spiritual springs, none of them are scientific, so it is not surprising.

When Li Yuan finished collecting it, she left the two largest ones alone, and left a small one for Wang Can, and the rest were all taken into the space by her.

"Sister, did you eat when you came on the way? If you don't have one, take a bite first. ”

"No, but I also ate some mung bean cakes, so I'm not hungry at this time. Let's go, let's send these two to the old mansion first. When we pass, Brother Xie should also have a good meal. The rest of the winter squash and pumpkin will be harvested when you come back. ”

"Sister, it's the same whether I go or not, tell the outside that these are what you brought back from outside, let everyone taste them, and plant them together. I plucked the rest and had to dig up the potatoes. Just talk to me again when you're gone. ”

"Okay, then I'll go first!"

Li Yuan said, put the two large watermelons in the back basket, and then walked towards the old mansion with a watermelon seed bowl soaked in spiritual spring water.

When she arrived, the door of the old house was closed, and it was quiet inside.

After thinking about it, she went to Li Qinghua's house again.

Before he arrived at Li Qinghua's house, he heard the sound of discussion inside.

Li Duo, who was standing in Li Qinghua's courtyard, had sharp eyes and saw Li Yuan carrying a basket on his back and a bowl in his hand, so he stepped forward to help.

When he saw that there were two big, round and black-green striped things inside, he asked, "Yuanniang, what are you carrying?" ”

"Watermelon! Brother Xie and I got it by accident, and I heard that the juice is sweet and thirst-quenching, and I want everyone to taste it. This bowl is filled with watermelon seeds, and I want the clan to plant them as well. If they can grow it, the people will be able to earn more at that time. ”

Li Yuan's voice was not small when he said this, so much so that Li Qinghua, Old Man Li and others in the hall heard it.

At this time, the elders of the Li clan were also here, and when they heard this, they all looked at Xie Yanzhi.

The watermelon field in Li Yuan's space is only two fingers long so far, so Xie Yanzhi has never eaten it.

However, he had seen in books that watermelon was written, but it was not called watermelon, but cold melon.

After he learned from Li Yuan that watermelon was also called cold melon, he went to look through the book he had read.

According to the book, the flesh of the melon is pink, the skin resembles that of a winter melon, and the inside is scattered with many swirling "holes".

So, he didn't know what it tasted like, and he didn't know exactly what it looked like.

But he believed Li Yuan, since she said that it was juicy and sweet to quench her thirst, it must be so.

She is a fairy anyway, and the things that come out of her cave are all heavenly immortals, how can they be compared to the mortal things recorded in the book?

Because of this, when everyone looked over, Xie Yanyi nodded with an unfathomable face.

"Well, what Yuan Niang said is right. This watermelon is very sweet and has a lot of juice. ”

As soon as the crowd heard this, they spontaneously gathered around.

Li Qinghua squeezed in front, after he looked at it, he reached out and touched it, and found that the skin was particularly smooth, so he asked: "Yuan Niang, how do you eat this thing?" ”

"Take a knife and cut it and eat the red flesh inside. I heard that after eating, you don't need to throw away the watermelon skin, remove the green part of the skin, and leave the white layer to stir-fry and eat. ”

Old man Li and the other elderly people were very curious, and when they saw this, they hurriedly ordered: "Duozi, go and get a knife!" ”

"Great!"

As soon as Li Duo left, Li Qinghua asked people to call the strong laborers in the village.

When everyone arrived, he asked Xie Yanzhi to take a knife and open the watermelon himself.

The watermelon was ripe, Xie Yanzhi took the knife and lightly everything, and the watermelon cracked in response, and everyone stretched out their heads to see this.

Li Qinghua, the patriarch, even reached out to scrape the watermelon juice that flowed out, and then put the finger stained with watermelon juice into his mouth.

"It's sweet!"

As soon as his words fell, his mother-in-law took the initiative to take the knife in Xie Yanzhi's hand and cut the watermelon into slices.

Two large watermelons, cut into many slices, were able to eat one or two slices for everyone present.

After eating, everyone automatically and spontaneously handed the watermelon seeds to Li Qinghua.

"This thing is good, I've never heard of this thing in our Liuyun County. After the planting comes out, you should not worry about selling! Yuan Niang, do you know how to plant this? ”

Li Qinghua said this to Li Yuan, but his eyes looked at Xie Yanzhi.

For them, Li Yuan is the daughter of the Li family, and she proposed to let everyone plant this, she must think about it for them.

And the one who really knows how to grow it should be the talented son-in-law of the knowledgeable Xie Yanzhi.

It's just that they don't have a position to ask Xie Yanzhi, so they can only ask Li Yuan.

"I've heard that it should be planted in the sand, and there should be no standing water. Watermelon can be raised first, and after the seedlings come out, it should be similar to planting corn, a watermelon seedling in a pit. I don't know the specifics, so you need to find out for yourselves. By the way, Uncle Hua, every watermelon bears fruit, no matter how many it bears, remember to pick some in the end and leave one or two. If you are reluctant to keep them, the other melons will not grow much, and they may not be so delicious. ”

As Li Yuan finished speaking, everyone's eyes looked at Xie Yanzhi.
