214. Pumpkin and cowpea

Latest website:

Zhao Fangyuan wandered around the mountain for most of the day. He was satisfied, but he still had unfinished thoughts and couldn't forget it.

After coming down the mountain, I was really embarrassed, so I buried myself in the house. It is worth mentioning that since there was really no place to live at home, Qiao Qiao slept with her grandparents, and Zhao Fangyuan slept in his bedroom.

I am currently in seclusion to work on the design drawings, and in a few days I will quickly measure the data. If I continue to delay, the house will really not be enough to live in!

However, when she wandered around the mountains, she also reminded Song Tan that it was really time to plant things on both sides of the protective net.

If you can't keep up with the golden cherry blossoms, you can wait until next year and plant some other vegetables and fruits this year. At worst, pay more attention.

Anyway, there are a few treasures here, and they run all over the mountains and plains every day, so there is no difference.

She thought for a while and found Zhang Yanping after coming down the mountain:

"Brother Yanping, if you really can't find the golden cherry seeds, forget it. I'll think about planting something else there."

"Then what are you going to plant?"

Song Tan hesitated: "I haven't thought about it yet..."

Because it is filled with watermelon vines and peach trees, the best things to plant are creeping vines and grown using protective nets.

It happened that the seventh cousin was walking by, and he thought about it for a moment: "You can grow any kind of cowpea or pumpkin."

Coincidentally, Song Tan doesn't like to eat either of these.

What's more, there are several pumpkins planted at the door, and cowpeas are also planted in almost half of the field.

The seventh cousin was also happy: "Don't say you don't like to eat, it turns out that I don't like to eat either."

It's not that they are picky eaters, it's just that their past memories are too horrible to look at.

It's hot summer when the cowpeas mature, and you'll be sweating profusely just cooking any dish, so naturally you're not in the mood to play with other tricks.

Unfortunately, there were very few mature vegetables in the vegetable field during that time, and there was only one cowpea, which seemed to be endless.

So I ate cowpeas in the morning, cowpeas at noon, and cowpeas in the evening. I hated eating them every day.

Who could like it if we just eat it like this?

As for pumpkins, I don’t like them even more.

At that time, every household was not rich, and naturally there was no way to choose the taste of the food. Pumpkins were not just about picking tender pumpkins and frying them. I couldn’t bear to part with them!

After all, the old pumpkin grows very long, so it saves wheat bran and rice bran when feeding pigs.

If you feed people...

Wang Lifen used to be particularly good at making pumpkin rice. It is said that she learned this trick to fill her stomach when she was a child.

But a pumpkin is as big as a pumpkin, with a fat belly and a long neck. It’s not enough to stew the pumpkin rice in one pot, and you have to eat it for two more days——

Just ask who can bear it?

Therefore, when Song Tan heard the seventh cousin's suggestion, he was very resistant:

"Seventh cousin, I have already planted half of the field with cowpeas, so there is no need to plant them again. This pumpkin... how about we replace it with winter melons?"

"It will be all right."

The seventh cousin who made the suggestion was very free and easy: "Pumpkin flowers, pumpkin tips and small pumpkins all taste delicious when stir-fried! Cowpeas can be used to make sour beans, dried beans, stir-fried sour beans, minced meat and fried rice.

, dried beans, stewed pork ribs and beef stew in winter... Even with the quality of yours, the supply is definitely in short supply."

"The winter melon is also good. It's big and tender when stir-fried. It's good! You can cut it into slices and dry it in the sun, and you can eat it for a long time in winter stews. It only weighs a few dozen kilograms. If you want it to climb up, I'm afraid the vines won't be able to withstand its weight.

…”

Song Tan:......

The yield of climbing vines is large and worry-free...

"Isn't it good to grow small tomatoes? They can also be used as fruit."

It's her own land, and everything she grows is delicious. Of course, the seventh cousin doesn't pick and choose, as if it's whatever you say it is.

But he was so reasonable and reasonable, but he had prepared the recipe first. The people who listened were drooling, so how could he have the thought to share it with Tomato?

Song Tan thought about it and finally decided to re-plan the long edge of the orchard, and then decided on a series of crops with Zhang Yanping Didi Gugu.

Who makes the choices as an adult?

Of course I want them all!

Anyway, the place is so big and ditches have been dug. Part of it will be used to grow vegetables that are not available at home. The other part will be used for those with large yields. We will make money first this year.

After all, it takes hundreds of thousands to build a house!

However, it was too late to sow seeds this season, so without saying anything, she directly dialed the phone number of the store that sold watermelon seedlings before:

"Uncle, do you know any company that grows vegetable seedlings in a wide variety and with good quality?"

What she wanted was not a small sum, and other families in the village could not afford it.

You can hear the surprise voice of the other party through the phone: "Cai Miao? I have it at home. Just come and pick whatever you want!"

These watermelon seedlings cannot be sold from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, right?

The uncle opposite was full of enthusiasm: "I also have two greenhouses growing the popular succulents. The little girl likes them a lot! Do you want to pick them out?"

Song Tan:......

"Forget it if it's meaty." Song Tan declined: "Now I just want something that I can eat and sell for money."

"Hey," the uncle was unhappy: "Although you can't eat the succulent meat, but you have planted it, a pot of it is very expensive! I planted a big pot of this kind, and I bought it for 500 yuan at the end of the year. No,

Poor!"

The uncle tried his best to sell it. After all, the price of meat is much more expensive than that of vegetable sprouts.

Song Tan also laughed and gave a fatal blow: "Uncle, I have no money."

The other side was instantly stuck.

Then he laughed again:

"How can you, the boss, have no money? You are so humble!"

He looked like he had seen through it, but he never mentioned the meaty thing, for fear that even the vegetable seedling would run away.

He quickly urged her: "I think it will be cloudy tomorrow and it may rain. It is a good time to plant vegetables. Why don't you come and pick them now, and I will send them to you early tomorrow morning?"

Song Tan:......

What are you waiting for?

The weather waits for no one!

Song Tan immediately grabbed the car keys:

"Dad, I'm going to see the vegetable seedlings."

Only the seventh cousin was in high spirits: "Are we going to burn dozens more people tomorrow? Oops! I just said this job is not easy..."

Grandma Qi saw him eagerly running around in circles in the yard and thought to herself: Damn old man, I don’t know you yet? You just like people to come and praise you.

On the other hand, Song Sancheng rushed out of the house:

"Tan Tan! Don't leave in a hurry. I'll call Master Zhang, the owner of the pig, and I'll bring him over when you come back."

Song Tan became curious: "Master Zhang? Are you a veterinarian? How much does it cost?"

Song Sancheng thought for a while: "What kind of veterinarian is this? The pig-cutter! Have you forgotten? It turns out that he was the one who chopped all the pigs in our house."

But later on, the piglets were killed when they were young, and they were no longer seen at home.

"As for how much it costs... I didn't ask. I haven't invited him for years. If you pick him up in the car, it's only ten or twenty yuan."

Song Tan:......!

"Ten and twenty dollars? Is that enough money for anesthesia?"

"What kind of anesthetic?" Song Sancheng laughed: "Are you using this precious thing? Just grab the four legs and pull them with a knife!"
