Chapter 107: Eating Potatoes (2)
After leading everyone into the flower hall, Li Xin ordered the meal to be served. The whole family also ate together with the others, but they sat at a separate table, but the food they ate was still the same.
The children didn't even bother to eat, so they went to get potato cakes to eat. The potato cakes are really fragrant, and the smell makes people very appetizing. People who have eaten potatoes like to eat them, but I have never eaten potatoes.
People are even more curious to taste it.
"It's so delicious." Wen Hao said while stuffing potato pancakes into his mouth.
"It's delicious. Stop talking while eating. If you accidentally spit it out, who would dare to eat the food on this table?" Li Xin glared at Wen Hao. She didn't mean that she had to let the children at home
Follow the rule of "Don't talk when you eat, don't talk when you sleep". You can talk at the dinner table. If everyone just bows their head to eat, it would be too boring. However, she doesn't want anyone to chew food and talk at the same time.
, it makes people feel a little uncomfortable after all. If it accidentally squirts out in one mouthful and spreads all over the table, who would dare to eat it!
Wen Hao just smiled, but he closed his mouth and went to eat, and stopped talking.
After lunch was finished, the people in the kitchen naturally put away what needed to be cleaned up, and everyone sat in the flower hall to drink tea. They had just eaten, but it was not suitable for working in the fields, so it was better to take a rest. Besides,
The weather is very hot now, and the sun is so strong at this time that it really makes people not want to leave the house!
"The taste of these potatoes is really good! The lady doesn't know where they got such crops." After sitting down to drink tea, Sister-in-law Wang talked to Li Xin. For today's lunch, we want to
Potato pancakes are the most popular. When making them, Li Xin asked him to make a big basket. People in the kitchen thought it was strange that there were so many pancakes. How could they eat them for fun? Mainly because they were not a staple food!
However, the fact is that all the potato cakes have been eaten. Although they are very full, everyone is still a little unfinished. This is how delicious food is! There is no room for it in the stomach.
But he still seemed unwilling to close his mouth. Not only the potato cakes, but also a large pot of shredded potatoes were all eaten, but there was still a lot of fried meat with green peppers.
Although the food at Zhuangzi is good, eating non-vegetarian food is still a bit of a luxury, and you can't eat it every time. On weekdays, if meat is cooked in a meal, it is completely eaten.
!It’s a strange thing that there is still some meat left today.
Potatoes are inherently delicious, but the potato pancakes are fried. How can they not be delicious? Oil has always been a precious commodity, and ordinary people can save a lot of it when cooking. They are reluctant to cook, let alone use it so much.
I ate a lot of fried food. There are always people who say that home-cooked food is not as fragrant as the aroma in a restaurant that makes people drool. In fact, it is mainly because people in restaurants are willing to add oil, so the food is naturally more fragrant.
.
"I just got it from a foreigner by chance. I didn't know it was delicious. My family was afraid of poverty, so I just planted it and gave it a try. I didn't expect it to be really delicious, and I was still full.
"Speaking of which, it's really a good thing!" Li Xin said with a smile. When she discovered those seeds, she only thought about improving her family's life.
Now it seems that those ordinary seeds along her road can not only improve the lives of her own family, but if used properly, they may be able to change the lives of millions of people. In this era, there are more farmers than the rest of the population.
Adding them all together, it is relatively small.
Countries with many farmers naturally pay more attention to crops. The emergence of high-yield crops can completely change an era. After all, with high-yield crops, it means that more people can have enough to eat.
, more people will no longer have to suffer from hunger, and fewer and fewer people will starve to death.
Perhaps, having never experienced poverty, she is still not able to understand the poverty of this era. Some people would burst into tears just because they saw digging potatoes. What kind of emotion is that! When she traveled through time, the Li family
Although she was very poor, her family was destitute, and she even had to endure hunger, her family's life soon improved. She had only lived a few days of poverty and not having enough to eat.
"Anyway, Miss has done a great job. If these potatoes can be planted everywhere, there will be no need to worry about not having enough to eat!" Wang Fu also looked excited. When he was a child, he was also because his family was poor.
Only when he was cruel did his parents sell him. The family was really poor at that time! When you cook a pot of gruel, there are not many grains of rice floating in it, and it seems easy to count them. But most of them are a few grains.
When it comes to vegetables, when there are vegetables at home, I put some cabbage grown by myself. When there are no vegetables at home, I add wild vegetables that I dug up.
Sometimes, the wild vegetables are very old, but there is nothing to eat. No matter how hard they are to swallow, they still have to be eaten.
Those days are really scary to think about.
"It is natural that such a good thing should be spread and spread so that everyone can plant it. However, everyone has seen the reproduction of potatoes. To be honest, the reproduction speed is also slow. It is not as good as corn and sweet potatoes.
It is much faster. And the yield is also very high. The yield of corn is several times that of rice! And it can be planted in mountainous areas without taking up good days. And sweet potatoes are even easier to call. Once the vines are inserted, they don’t need to be planted.
No matter what, you can always get sweet potatoes, it just depends on the yield. And, as long as you plant them well, the yield of sweet potatoes may be higher than that of potatoes.
"I've been thinking about it! Next year, it would be great if we could mobilize people around us to grow corn or something like that."
"The lady is right, and she has thought carefully. If the lady is really willing to give the seeds to people, there will definitely be many people rushing to plant them. Who would be unwilling to plant something with such a high yield! Just go out and say
Once you say that, it's for sure! Someone will come to your door soon!" Wang Fu was very excited. The young lady in his family is really very kind! He is lucky to be able to follow such a master.
"However, we should not talk about this matter to the outside world for the time being. Instead, we can let everyone come and visit when the harvest is harvested. At that time, nothing can be more convincing. We always tell others how high the yield is, then
People have to believe it too!”
"Don't worry, miss, the big guy will definitely not go out and talk nonsense."
After that, Li Xin asked people to cut the watermelon they brought and serve it to everyone. He also asked people to pick some cherry tomatoes, wash them and serve them. It is hot, so it is good to eat some fruits.
Comfortable. Especially watermelon. Eating watermelon naturally relieves the heat, and even if it is not chilled, it is very cool to eat. It is really a happy thing to eat a piece of watermelon at this time.
