A few vegetable patches that had just been sorted caught He Xiner's attention: "Mother, what are you going to plant?"
It's this season, so I guess I just need to plant some Chinese cabbage and radishes, but the cabbage and radishes are still young and old.
"Oh, your father and uncle planted some garlic. I just saw that some of it has sprouted."
Hearing this, He Xiner came closer and took a closer look, and it was true.
Is it possible to grow so much garlic and eat it all?
Suddenly, a flash of light flew through He Xiner's mind.
She loved eating garlic in her previous life. If she could grow garlic, she could eat it at home or sell it for money. It was a good thing and it was worth a try.
It was just a preliminary idea, and I didn't know if it would work out. He Xiner didn't tell Mrs. Wang, but helped to cook the food. It wasn't until after dinner that she had a serious discussion with her father.
"Dad, I know a way to grow different garlic seedlings, which are very fresh and delicious. I thought I might be able to sell them for some money."
Ever since Ye Laiyin learned that her daughter was literate, she had some novel ideas about her, and she had no doubts about them, nor did she ask her where she knew them.
Her daughter is smart, literate and can read, so she naturally understands much more.
At that moment, after hearing He Xiner's words, he became interested, "It's just a slack time for farming. In previous years, my father would have gone to work in the town. Now he has to pick fruits and has no time to work. I'm afraid your milk will soon lose its strength. If you grow it,
It would be good to exchange some money for the fresh vegetables, so as not to make any noise later."
"Yes, that's what dad said."
"Your uncle originally planned to drive the bullock cart to the town to make some money. I told him tomorrow that he should do nothing else but get those garlic sprouts first."
"Haha, if Dad believes in me so much, aren't you afraid of wasting your time?"
He Xiner smiled with a narrow look on her face.
"Hey, I don't trust my daughter, who do I trust?"
Patting his daughter's head, Ye Laiyin smiled heartily, "It's okay even if you don't make any money, isn't it just a few days of work?"
The room was bright with candles, and Mrs. Wang pursed her lips and smiled while doing needlework. Listening to the two men's discussions, she felt very happy.
Like her husband, she believed in her daughter from the bottom of her heart. As long as it was her daughter's idea, there was nothing wrong with it.
"This method is actually very simple. It is to build a half wall around the entire border and put a straw curtain on top."
"Why is this?"
"Keep it out of the sun and keep it warm at night. Once the garlic seedlings grow two inches, you can cover it. Water it once every two or three days, then cover it and let it grow on its own."
"The garlic sprouts that have not been exposed to the sun are particularly tender and yellow in color."
After hearing what his daughter said, Ye Laiyin pondered for a moment, "Your uncle and I will start getting busy tomorrow."
"Well, do you want to tell me first?"
"Say, it doesn't cost money. Your father will agree to it."
"Uh-huh."
There was a gurgling white fungus soup on the stove. He Xiner stirred it carefully. When she saw that it was almost done, she found a rag and tried to take it out.
"Dad, come on, stay away so you don't get burned."
He Xiner chuckled, she was not a child, and her father was too careful.
After scooping up the white fungus soup and letting it cool, He Xiner suddenly said, "Our family suddenly put up a curtain to grow things. Will the people in the village come to ask?"
If it were before, she wouldn't have cared about this little thing, she would have known it as long as she knew it. This was not a method she came up with in the first place. It was the crystallization of wisdom from generation to generation.
Such a simple planting method will spread sooner or later.
Besides, she doesn't expect to make a fortune selling garlic.
But after what happened with Ye Guozi, if she continues to have such an indifferent attitude, she is being short-sighted.
"Well, General Dad is also thinking about this."
"How about building a fence and surrounding them all?"
"Okay, I'll discuss this with your uncle tomorrow." This chapter has been completed!
