Datang little husband

Chapter 132 Potato Banquet

"Master, why did you come to the field?" Xu Lang saw Du He coming from afar, so he ran over to say hello to Du He.

"Isn't it greedy to see the watermelon you planted! How do you choose which one to keep for breeding?" Du He looked at the melons in the field and asked Xu Lang.

"Master, according to your idea of ​​optimizing children's education, this melon is not bad in terms of size or appearance!" Xu Lang said while bringing Du He to the very large watermelon.

"Not bad! This melon is well picked and ripe enough, so let's eat this melon today!" Du He patted the watermelon in front of him, judging from the sound that the melon was ripe, and said About ten catties of watermelons were picked.

Then he handed it to the servant next to him, and asked him to tie the red string to distinguish it, and then take it back and put it in the ice cellar to chill.

Anyway, for these melons, only the seeds are reserved for seeds, and the watermelon seeds will be fine when he finishes eating.

However, the melons of ordinary size should be distinguished from the big ones. When the time comes to plant them again, it is better to observe those melons growing better.

After that, Du He and Xu Lang went to the field to pick out all the mature melons, especially those that had been operated on by Du He when they were young.

Then open it to see the maturity inside, and according to Xu Lang's previous records, it is better to make adjustments in the next breeding.

However, the watermelons produced by the melon seedlings grafted on several kinds of melons in a row looked good on the outside, but the inside was either white or solid, which made Du He a little dumbfounded.

Fortunately, it was successful. When Du He opened a watermelon grafted on the winter melon vine, the color inside was very good, and the taste was okay after a taste.

Afterwards, Du He and Xu Lang compared the notes made by Xu Lang before, and found that this melon had few diseases and insect pests, and its growth was also very good. After discussing the reason with Du He and Xu Lang, the final result was that this melon was grafted the latest. And when the seedlings are grafted, the wax gourd is cut shorter.

With this discovery, Du He and Xu Lang sat on the field ridge with half of the melons in their arms, talking about whether this might be a new grafting method, but whether Xu Lang needed to study it in depth, and what to do about it? When selecting breeding in the future, the impact of the land on watermelons should be taken into account.

Of course, many of these are just hearsay by Du He, and Xu Lang has to study slowly on how to do it and whether it can produce results.

After talking about watermelon, Du He turned the topic to potatoes. He handed over the planting and protection of potatoes to Xu Lang one by one, and let him explore slowly.

In the end, it is necessary to come up with a set of effective guidance plans, and make preliminary preparations for the large-scale planting of the entire Datang in the future, so that it will be bad if something goes wrong.

Xu Lang happily accepted the order and said he would do a good job.

Although Du He also knows that potatoes are very adaptable, and these seeds are high-quality seeds provided by the system, but they can't ignore everything and let them grow freely, that's not okay.

From the very beginning, we must find out the habits of various crops, so that when large-scale pests and diseases occur, we can find solutions more quickly.

At the same time, it is also to select seeds that are suitable for various geological conditions in various places in the Tang Dynasty, so that the situation that oranges grow in Huainan become oranges, and oranges grow in Huaibei become oranges.

In this way, Du He chatted with Xu Lang for a whole day in the field, and even the lunch was prepared and delivered by the mansion.

During this period, Du He also turned into a farmer and was busy in the field for a while, and Du He didn't go back until evening.

Although this is a bit tiring, Du He is full of relief seeing the crops that do not exist in this dynasty, as well as various experimental crops.

He believes that in the future, this place will definitely become a place that many farmers yearn for, because more high-quality seeds can be obtained here.

And all of this was brought by him, Du He, so how could he not feel relieved!

When he got home, Du He went straight into the kitchen. The potato feast that he didn't make last night must be arranged tonight.

So as soon as he entered the kitchen, Du He got busy there. Green pepper and potato shreds, hot and sour potato chips, mashed potatoes, potato cakes, fish with pickled cabbage, and beef brisket stewed with potatoes were all arranged.

"Second brother, what are these things! And you didn't cook at noon, so where did you go?" When Du He brought the last dish of stir-fried potato shreds to the table, Du Lian asked Du He with a look of disgust.

"Damn girl, you can't stop your mouth even if you eat it. Didn't you eat so many fried potatoes yesterday? Why do you change your appearance today? You don't know! And remember, don't jump to conclusions before you try it. , especially things you don’t know, of course it has been proven that it’s a bad thing, if you still touch it, that’s not okay, it will make you look stupid, after all you are so stupid, be stupid, I’m really I'm afraid you will fall into our mother's hands in the future, and my elder brother and I are raising you, then we will be miserable!" After Du He finished speaking, he did not forget to reach out and hold Du Lian's head, so that she could not get up immediately Come and beat him.

"Smelly second brother, bad second brother, you know how to bully me! Mother, sister-in-law, you don't care!" Du Lian shouted there with a depressed face.

It's just that no one responded to Du Lian's plea for help, even Mrs. Liu asked Li Xin and the others to start eating.

"Husband, this potato is so crispy, it's really delicious, I thought it was just the same as yesterday's fried potatoes!"

"Sister Yin'er, you don't understand this. The potato itself doesn't taste very good, but it's as versatile as cabbage. It tastes the same when cooked with any dish, and its own taste is also very good!"

Faced with Zheng Guanyin's exclamation after tasting a mouthful of green pepper and potato shreds, Du He hadn't even opened his mouth yet. Li Xin had already explained to Zheng Guanyin what he had eaten there, and even gave Zheng Guanyin a piece of potato from stewed beef brisket let her try.

Zheng Guanyin tasted it and immediately fell in love with the taste.

But Mrs. Liu only loves pickled fish, and this pickled fish is an improved version of Du He, which is the kind with a lot of peppers, hot and sour.

For Mrs. Liu, the pickled fish is very appetizing, and she also likes the side dish potato. Even Xiao Yinger, who is sitting next to her, also likes pickled fish because Mrs. Liu picks up vegetables for her.

Of course she likes and loves. For Xiao Yinger, soft mashed potatoes and crispy fried potato shreds are her favorites.

Seeing this, Du Lian became anxious immediately. She had always claimed to be a foodie in this family, and seeing how everyone liked these things that she didn't like just now, Du Lian begged Du He to let him go. To drive herself, she also wants to eat delicious food.

"Second brother, these potatoes are really delicious, and you can make so many tricks, second brother, I really love you!" Du Lian shouted at Du He after tasting everything.

"You die once, I have your two sister-in-laws, I don't need your love, you should love others!" Du He ruthlessly refused.
