Chapter 97: , dig peas
After the new year, the temperature gradually increased.
When Qin Rou got up in the morning to water, she found that there were several pits in her yard for no reason.
"Two stinky bastards, you dug up your mother's radish again?!!!" Qin Rou was really **** off and wanted to play the carrot defense battle with them. These two little rascals liked it Pulling mother's radishes is like a rabbit possessed, but they don't like to eat radishes.
Stinky cub!
The two little cubs were especially guilty, standing in front of their mother, the brothers held hands and glanced at their mother from time to time.
The little dumpling scratched in my brother's palm, begging my brother to come forward and find a way.
Zhou Zhou said: "I want to dig Peas for my mother."
Dumpling followed: "Dig Doudou..."
Qin Rou: “…”
The peas in their mouths are potatoes, and they also grow in the soil. When winter came, Qin Rou planted some radishes and potatoes in batches on the terrace and in the yard , The radishes and potatoes here are not the same as the tomatoes that are happy and fruitful in the yard, and need careful care.
The temperature from November to February, March and April here is relatively suitable for growing potatoes and radishes.
Because carrots and potatoes are more suitable for planting when the temperature is cool, they can also be stubbornly planted at other times, even if they are more tossing, and tossing may not necessarily yield a result.
Qin Rou has grown some strange radishes. Anyway, it is easier to encounter Waterloo here. How strange are the radishes grown?
Oh.
A human-shaped radish with "crossed legs".
No wonder radishes race ginseng? Maybe there is some spiritual energy in him.
The carrots grown here are either completely waterloo, a small one, or they can grow into very sweet carrots. A little bit, but also suitable for the family to eat.
Qin Rou likes to eat carrots, and often grows a little bit, and slowly, she also has some experience in growing.
She also tried to grow potatoes, also known as "Doudou" in Zhouzhou and Jiaozi.
Potatoes are very delicious food, fried shredded potatoes, sweet and sour potato shreds, fried potato fries, mashed potatoes... Compared with the annoying radish, potatoes are the favorite food of children. But on the island it is really quite rare to eat.
The climate here in Qiongzhou Island makes it difficult to grow large potatoes, potatoes are not resistant to high temperature, and the yield is not high. The local islanders have never seen this stuff before, and some of them come from the north People, plant a little bit.
For example, Qin Rou's sister, Qin Mian, loves potatoes. She tried to grow a lot last winter. Qin Rou also grows a little potato to develop recipes for the children.
The potatoes here are not as delicious as the big potatoes grown in the alpine regions, and the yield of potatoes in the north is really high. Rice or something, maybe the shredded potato in the north can also eat a psychological shadow.
Brother-in-law Chen Mian and his son are not very fond of potatoes.
When you come to the island, you don’t want to eat sweet potato rice. You can grow rice on Qiongzhou Island for three seasons a year and three crops a year. Of course, you don’t have to plant three seasons. It is possible that other crops will be planted in the fields in the third season. Now, high-yield hybrid rice has been gradually promoted. The research and planting of hybrid rice is also carried out on the island.
Don't pick any taste, it's good to eat with white rice.
In the past, Qin Rou was in Guangdong Province, and Guangdong and Guangxi mainly planted two-season rice, divided into early rice and late rice. The early rice was harvested during the summer vacation. When I was studying a long time ago, some classmates would go back to their hometown during the summer vacation to help with double robberies. When they returned to school in September, they all became little black hands.
In this era, there is also a holiday, called double robbing leave, which is specially designed for people to go back to help their family to engage in double robbing.
Because two or three seasons of rice can be grown, the rice yield here is relatively high a year, even in the 1960s and 1970s, some villages could eat white rice every day Yes, of course, that is, a few rural areas with better water and heat conditions in the fields can have exclusive advantages.
Dunton can eat white rice, but in some villages, with many people and few fields, and poor water conservancy conditions, they have to eat sweet potato rice mixed with sweet potatoes.
Now we have begun to promote hybrid rice, and it will not take many years to eat white rice. Of course, the first hybrid rice, although high-yield, has a relatively average taste.
Just like the comparison between early rice and late rice, late rice is more delicious. When Qin Rou cooks claypot rice, he uses the more delicious late rice.
The white rice at this time was not the fine white rice of later generations. Many of the husks were not removed cleanly and were still stuck on the rice grains. In some senses, it could be said to be a relatively healthy "coarse grain".
Qin Rou stared at the two cubs and said, "Let's dig some Doudou later,"
"You guys go to kindergarten, I'm going to Uncle Zhang's house next door to ask for some radishes, we'll eat radishes today, vegetarian fried radishes."
Zhou Zhou and Dumplings: “…”
I pulled out my own radishes, as well as other radishes, so annoying.
Why does Uncle Zhang next door plant radishes?
The radish seedlings were all given by their mother…
Qin Rou smiled proudly, hehe, I didn't expect it, your mother now gives you Uncle Zhang's radish seedlings to plant, their little radishes are really watery, go and ask for a few does not matter.
“Bee…”
Zhouzhou and Dumpling looked at each other, their most simple wish at this time was to go to Uncle Zhang's house next door to pull radishes.
"Okay, don't be shy, go dig Doudou with mom."
Qin Rou took two children to dig Doudou. The three mother and son dug out more than ten potatoes. The dug out potatoes were super small, and the larger potatoes were only half a fist. size it.
How many small potatoes can I eat? ?
The big ones are for cooking, and the small ones can only be washed and steamed directly, or made into braised potatoes.
After digging potatoes, I went to feed the chickens and pick up eggs. The big hens at home gave three eggs today, and it happens that the mother and son will eat one each tomorrow.
"Okay, let's go to kindergarten and wait for the radish to come home." Qin Rou wiped the hands and feet of the two cubs. Compared with brothers Xixi and Jingyi, these two Children are really disobedient.
Not a baby leek, nor a baby radish.
They want to be a radish baby.
Little Dumpling said coquettishly: "Mom kiss."
"Mom wants to eat radishes too." Qin Rou smiled and kissed him. After kissing, she looked to the side, "Brother Zhouzhou kiss?"
"Honey."
After sending the child to the kindergarten, Qin Rou went to sow the seeds again, trying to replenish the radish seedlings, and then knocked on the door of the next door, just as Mr. Huang was at home.
Qin Rou said she wanted to exchange potatoes and tomatoes for some radishes.
"Change it, change it, Xiao Qin, you can get more." Huang Xinying waved her hand very generously, went home and brought a lot of radishes to Qin Rou, and dug some fresh ones.
Really, her old Zhang is good at growing all kinds of radishes and bitter gourd. Most of the radish seedlings are donated by Comrade Xiao Qin next door.
Compared to growing bitter gourd, Mr. Huang prefers to grow radishes in Zhangcheng North, whether it is carrots or white radishes.
No matter what, radish is better than bitter gourd. Although adults are not picky eaters, Mr. Huang really doesn’t like bitter gourd!
Unless it is made into bitter gourd stuffed meat, she likes to eat the meat inside the bitter gourd stuffed meat!
"Little Qin, why don't your two children like to eat radishes?" Teacher Huang couldn't help but ask.
Qin Rou shook her head: "I don't know, Lu Yan and I both like carrots."
Huang Xinying sighed: "My son Dundun loves to eat radishes, and I don't know who he resembles."
In fact, this is not a big deal. The point is that after eating radishes in their family, there are a lot of thieves and they smell bad.
—Mom is sad.
Qin Rou: “…”
"I'm looking forward to sending him to kindergarten early."
Huang Xinying looked at her with a hopeful look: "Xiao Qin, do you want bitter gourd?"
Qin Rou: "...I want it."
It seems that I feel sorry for Mr. Huang by changing the radish instead of the bitter gourd.
But Mrs. Huang put her nose on her face and gave her a lot of bitter gourds...
