While the seeds were soaking, Lin Xiao and Yu Xilin carefully turned over the burned land several times until the ashes of fallen leaves and soil were completely blended together before they stopped.
"The time is just right, Xilin, go get some water!"
Lin Xiao planted the soaked seeds one by one in the soil and casually gave instructions to Yu Xilin.
"oh!"
Yu Xilin nodded, then came over with a bucket of fresh water.
Lin Xiao carefully watered the seeds one spoon after another, as if these were not seeds but her children.
The other farmers shook their heads when they saw this scene, and Uncle Gen was even more angry.
"It's impossible to grow vegetables if the seeds are planted so loosely! This guy is obviously messing around!"
"Oh, what a pity for these precious seeds."
"That's right! How can you pour so much water on one seed? Are you afraid of drowning the seeds?"
"I think he did it on purpose, wasting the vegetable seeds on purpose!"
"Yes, yes! I think so too!"
"This kind of person is really hateful..."
"..."
The farmers were talking among themselves, with expressions of regret and indignation on their faces.
When Yu Xilin heard them talking, he couldn't help but frown.
He looked at Lin Xiao and saw that she was still swaying the water with concentration on her face, with a peaceful smile on her face, and his heart softened.
"Xiao Linzi..."
Yu Xilin called softly.
Lin Xiao heard the sound, raised his head, looked at Yu Xilin with soft eyes, and asked:
"What's up?"
Hearing this, Yu Xilin hesitated for a moment and then asked the doubts in his heart:
"Xiao Linzi, aren't you afraid of drowning the seeds if you water them like this?"
"You don't understand this, do you?"
Lin Xiao said with a smile, keeping her hands on her:
"Vegetables love water the most. If you don't water them thoroughly, the vegetables will not only wilt, but they won't grow well at all."
With that said, Lin Xiao took another ladle of cold water and poured it on the vegetable patch...
Lin Xiao repeated this action for three days.
In the past three days, she had been ridiculed a lot by the group of farmers led by Uncle Gen, but she enjoyed it.
Every day I take the time to pour a basin of water into the vegetable patch.
She believes that once the green vegetable seeds germinate, they will grow well.
As expected, on the morning of the fourth day, green vegetable seedlings took over the entire vegetable field!
Hong Ye and others opened their mouths in surprise, looking at Lin Xiao with surprise and a bit of admiration in their eyes.
"this"
Lin Xiao walked up to Lin Xiao and asked with red eyes:
"Nothing has ever been grown on this piece of land, but you actually grew vegetable seedlings in this way?!"
Lin Xiao smiled:
"It's not too late to praise me when Qing Cai grows up!"
As he spoke, a gourd of water was poured down.
The green buds of the vegetables popped up in the soil, and the branches swayed in the wind, looking full of life.
Hongye stared blankly at all this, unable to say a word for a long time.
On the other hand, Uncle Gen on the side muttered unconvincingly:
"It's just shitty luck! I don't believe these vegetables can grow!"
When Lin Xiao heard this, he glanced at Uncle Gen from the corner of his eye and said lightly:
"Just wait and see! The custody will surprise you!"
Uncle Gen snorted disdainfully.
Lin Xiao ignored him and took Yu Xilin to the toilet with a bucket and shovel.
Yu Xilin looked confused:
"Xiao Linzi, why did you bring me here? It stinks like hell!"
"compost."
Lin Xiao shoveled up the excrement with a shovel and stacked it in a bucket. Then he and Yu Xilin carried the dung bucket to the vegetable field one after another.
When everyone smelled this familiar and overpowering smell, they all covered their noses and their faces became ugly.
Uncle Gen showed a look of disgust on his face and said:
"Why are you bringing everyone's dirty things here?!"
"Isn't it? Isn't it? You don't know that feces is a green, pollution-free, high-quality fertilizer?"
Lin Xiao had a look of disbelief on his face, looking at Uncle Gen as if he were looking at a mentally retarded person.
"nonsense!"
Uncle Gen snorted coldly and said in an arrogant tone:
"We grow vegetables for eating! How can they be contaminated by such dirty things?"
"You...you are really a bunch of stubborn old antiques!"
Lin Xiao finally knew the reason for their low vegetable yield.
She was too lazy to care about them, so she scooped up a spoonful of dung water with a ladle and poured it on the roots of the green vegetable seedlings little by little, so that they could grow vigorously.
The others looked at this scene and were so disgusted that they were speechless.
Even Uncle Gen couldn't bear it anymore. He frowned and said to the people around him:
"Let's go first! I feel uncomfortable after staying here for a long time!"
"Let's go! Let's go!"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding farmers hurried away.
Even Hongye, who brought the food, was no exception. He put down the food and turned around and ran away, fearing that if he stayed a moment longer, he would be attacked by poisonous hands.
Seeing this, Lin Xiao shrugged helplessly and continued to water the green vegetable seedlings.
"Xiao Linzi, if we water this thing, will the vegetables that grow out be edible? Will they not stink?"
Yu Xilin looked at the spoonfuls of feces with worry written all over his face.
"Come over tomorrow and smell it to see if there is any smell."
Lin Xiao said with a smile, with a touch of confidence on his face.
Please, this is purely natural and pollution-free green food, okay!
How could there be a stink!
The next day, Yu Xilin looked at the green vegetable seedlings that were much taller than yesterday and danced excitedly:
"Xiao Linzi, there is really no smell at all!"
Hong Ye, who came to deliver the meal, was amazed when he saw these green vegetable seedlings growing extremely well, and couldn't help but sigh:
"It's only been a few days, but the vegetables have grown so big?"
"Where is this going?"
Lin Xiao raised her chin proudly, looking extremely proud:
"In ten days and a half, these vegetables will be strong and tender!"
Hongye asked in disbelief:
"Strong and tender? How big can these vegetables grow?"
"It can probably grow to about half a meter."
Lin Xiao replied conservatively.
In fact, as long as the roots of green vegetables are not pulled out and only the leaves are eaten, it can continue to grow and eventually it will look like a sapling.
It’s just that the green vegetables at that time became old vegetables, with a very bad taste and not delicious!
"About half a meter?!"
Hongye exclaimed!
In her impression, these green vegetables can only grow to the size of a palm at most. If they are any larger, they will become wilted and impossible to eat...
Her exclamation attracted the attention of Uncle Gen and others. They all came closer and their eyes widened when they saw that the green vegetable seedlings on Lin Xiao's vegetable field had grown a lot taller.
"This...how is this possible!"
"The seedlings have grown so big in just a few days. Wouldn't they be edible in a few days?"
"Do you dare to eat the vegetables that are poured with manure?"
"But I don't smell the stench of feces!"
"I didn't seem to smell it when you said that. It's so strange. He obviously poured manure on it yesterday..."
