Xie Hua'er saw Zhang San picked up the pumpkin and left, and quickly chased after him.
"Hey! Wait for me, is this thing really edible? Is the output still that big?"
Xie Hua'er knew that if what Zhang San said was true, it would undoubtedly be big news. She thought that her master had been working hard to increase grain production for most of his life, but all ended in failure.
Two high-yielding crops have emerged, and I really don’t know where this shit will go.
"Believe it or not!" Zhang San was not used to Xie Hua'er. He even sprayed him in the face just now. If it were Xiaoyu, he would still have the patience to explain it to her.
But Zhang San also knew that the first time this thing appeared, no one would believe it if he told it, just like when he planted potatoes.
Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, and Li Shimin were shocked by the twenty-odd dan per acre of potato land. This pumpkin was several times the size of potatoes, so it was naturally even more difficult to believe.
You have to know that eighty or ninety dan is equivalent to tens of thousands of kilograms! In this era when grain production per mu is generally two to three hundred kilograms, this is simply a fantasy.
"Sir, why are you here?" Aunt Song was busy preparing dishes for the family in the kitchen. When she saw Zhang San coming in, she asked curiously.
Then she saw Xie Hua'er also coming in. Aunt Song smiled and said hello to Xie Hua'er. Seeing Xie Hua'er pouting as if she was angry, she secretly thought that she was probably angry with the Lord, so
Didn't say much.
Zhang San opened the box, found a kitchen knife, and moved the pumpkin to the chopping board. Xie Hua'er saw Zhang San lift the knife and chop the pumpkin into two pieces.
"Hey, are you crazy? You ruined such a good thing like this?" Xie Hua'er saw that the pumpkin turned into two parts, and felt that her heart was broken. Such a good crop was ruined by Zhang San.
.
"You're crazy. I almost missed you. Bring it over and treat you to steamed pumpkin tonight." Zhang San didn't expect that Xie Hua'er suddenly rushed over and took away another pumpkin. He almost didn't hurt her, so he was a little angry.
.
"You want to eat pumpkin? Is this how you eat it?" Xie Hua'er couldn't believe her ears. Wasn't it reserved as seeds? How could she just eat it like this?
"Nonsense, what's the point of keeping it if you don't want to eat it?" Zhang San said angrily.
Aunt Song stood aside, not knowing what this thing was, but looking at Xie Hua'er's reaction, it seemed that this thing was very important to her.
"The pumpkin is so cute, how can you eat it?"
When Zhang San heard Xie Hua'er's words, he was like a thunderbolt, his head couldn't turn around, and then Zhang San couldn't help laughing.
"Why are you laughing? I don't allow you to eat pumpkin. We should keep this thing to grow. I beg you, let's eat something else instead?" Xie Hua'er said coquettishly.
The reason why Zhang San laughed was because he suddenly remembered the joke in his previous life, "Rabbits are so cute, how can you eat rabbits? Boss, here are five rabbit heads!"
"I think you should never say that you are a descendant of a farmer in the future, lest people laugh at you. How do you think this thing should be grown?" Zhang San joked.
When asked by Zhang San, Xie Hua'er was also stunned. It was the first time she saw this thing, so naturally she didn't know how to plant it, but according to experience, isn't it usually the seeds or fruits of crops?
"How to plant it?" Xie Hua'er asked with a slight blush.
"Use this! Do you think the whole plant was planted in the ground?" Zhang San saw Xie Hua'er's cute face and a pumpkin in her arms, which was very cute.
When Xie Hua'er saw a pumpkin seed that Zhang San was holding, she felt that she was too embarrassed to see anyone. She quickly put the pumpkin down, turned around and ran out.
"Sir, what is this?" Aunt Song asked curiously when she saw Xie Hua'er leaving.
"This is a pumpkin. You can cut it into pieces like this at night and steam it in a pot before eating." Zhang San split the two pumpkins and collected the pumpkin seeds inside. These are what Zhang San wanted.
of.
"Okay, sir." Aunt Song saw that it was food, so she didn't ask any more questions.
In the evening, when Xiaoyu and her three daughters came back, they felt very strange when they saw Xie Huaer looking worried. Xie Huaer has been very happy every day since she came to live at home. Could it be that "relatives" are here?
"Third brother, what's wrong with Sister Hua'er?" the younger sister asked.
"Maybe you have doubts about life! I'll treat you to a good meal tonight." Zhang San said with a smile.
"Hua'er, are you okay?" Xiaoyu came to Hua'er and asked with concern.
"I'm fine, Xiaoyu." Hua'er forced a smile at Xiaoyu. When she saw Zhang San coming over, her face suddenly collapsed and she blushed unconsciously.
Su Xin and Xiaoyu all looked at Zhang San with curiosity. They didn't know what Zhang San did to Hua'er at home, and why they saw Zhang San like this.
Seeing Xiaoyu looking at him critically, Zhang San quickly explained: "Don't look at me like that, Hua'er was pissed off by a pumpkin today."
"Pumpkin?" Everyone didn't know what this had to do with pumpkins, and they had never heard of such a thing.
Seeing that several people were confused, Zhang San quickly told what happened today. After everyone heard it, they burst into laughter.
Hua'er was so embarrassed that she almost found a crack in the ground and crawled in.
"Third brother, are pumpkins really more productive than potatoes?" the younger sister asked curiously.
"Of course, when did third brother lie to you? By the way, you guys should keep it a secret this time. Don't spread it out. If the emperor finds out, our family's work will be in vain." Zhang San
Remembering the painful lesson of growing potatoes, I quickly reminded a few people.
Xiaoyu and Suxin were also shocked by this amazing yield and were speechless for a long time. After hearing what Zhang San said later, Xiaoyu nodded quickly. The potatoes they had worked so hard to grow last time were only divided into more than ten kilograms, and they were all taken away by Li Shimin.
Gone.
In the evening, Aunt Song brought the steamed pumpkin to the table, and Zhang cut half of it into pieces for Aunt Song and the others to try, which made them very happy.
This thing is brightly colored and has a faint fragrance, so I thought it would be delicious.
"Come on, you guys have a taste." Zhang San greeted a few people to start eating.
When the little girl saw something delicious, she took the initiative to use her chopsticks and picked up a piece of pumpkin. She was not afraid of burning her mouth and ate the piece of pumpkin as if she were swallowing a date. She didn't care to talk, picked up another piece and started eating.
Seeing that the little girl was getting carried away with eating, Xiaoyu, Suxin and Xie Huaer also picked up a piece and took a small bite. Their eyes suddenly lit up. The pumpkin was soft, glutinous and sweet, and melted in the mouth. It was very delicious.
"Master, why don't you eat it? This pumpkin is delicious." Xiaoyu said while eating.
"Well, you can throw away the skin. Although the skin is edible, it's not very tasty." Zhang San reminded in a low voice.
When several people heard this, their faces turned red. The little girl said nonchalantly: "The skin is delicious too, but you are the only one who is naughty."
But having said that, the next few people no longer eat the skin.
Zhang San couldn't help but increase his appetite when he saw Xiaoyu and the others eating enthusiastically, so he picked up a piece and tasted it.
Don't tell me, I don't think this pumpkin is as delicious as I originally thought. I don't know if it's because I haven't eaten it for a long time, or for some reason. In short, Zhang San also eliminated three pieces in succession, and most of the rest went into the little sister's house.
