Maid, Little Lucky Wife

Chapter 81 Finding Potatoes

Mo Xuan's mind moved and he immediately came over, while everyone else stopped.

"Madam, what do you mean?"

Yun Shang did not speak, but picked up the wooden stick on the side to dig. After digging twice, the wooden stick broke.

Mo Xuan took out his dagger and started digging too.

Finally, the things under the soil were exposed, and they were ellipsoids.

Yun Shang smiled and relaxed, "Haha, with this thing, I won't be afraid of starving."

Mo Xuan reached out and touched it, and asked curiously, "Is this the anti-hunger food you said can be used as a staple food?"

He didn't believe it. No one had ever seen this thing. How did the lady know about it?

By the way, the lady said that someone she saved before gave her the recipe for making incense, and maybe that person also told her this.

"This thing is called a potato. It has a very short growth cycle and does not have high requirements for growing conditions. The most important thing is that you can harvest a lot every time it matures. It only takes three months to grow."

Yun Shang stood up and looked around. Sure enough, there were still a lot of them, but they were scattered far away.

"Husband, tell them to collect these."

"But, does this potato have seeds? If it is transplanted somewhere, it will probably die."

Mo Xuan expressed his worries.

Yun Shang laughed, "Don't worry, the potato itself is a seed. Cut it into small pieces and bury it in the soil, and seedlings will grow quickly."

Mo Xuan didn't believe in mysterious and mysterious things, but he believed in the lady.

"Let's dig part of it first, and when we get out of the mountain, we can come back and dig again?"

Yun Shang nodded, indicating that it was okay.

Everyone started digging together, probably weighing dozens of kilograms.

Not too many, after all, you have to take people with you.

It took Mo Xuan three days to lead everyone out of the mountain.

At this time, everyone was a little more tired, and their clothes were stained with dirt.

Walking back onto the road again, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lingqi, you will take one person back to meet them after dinner!"

"Yes, sir!"

Everyone started setting up tents and cooking.

I don’t know when the convoy will come out. They may have to stay here for a while, so be prepared for accommodation.

Dinner was fresh potatoes, and several subordinates were very curious about this thing called potatoes.

I heard from my wife that this thing can be eaten roasted, stewed, or stir-fried. Why not try them all?

Having made up their minds, everyone started taking action.

Soon, an unprecedented aroma came out, it was the smell of roasted potatoes.

It's not as fragrant as meat, but much more fragrant than ordinary vegetables.

Mo Xuan sniffed and his eyes suddenly lit up, "Madam, is this thing productive?"

Yun Shang nodded and answered affirmatively, "Of course it can. As long as the soil quality is suitable, it can be productive."

"One potato can be cut into many pieces, and then it can grow into many pieces. When you think about it, it will be enough to cover several hills and feed the refugees."

Mo Xuan nodded, thinking of that scene, he couldn't help but look forward to it.

If you have a surplus of food, you are not afraid of starving to death and can slowly develop other things.

Half of the heavy stone that had been weighing on my heart for many days was gone, and my whole body relaxed visibly.

Soon all the food was ready. The stews and stir-fries were nothing special, and they were not even as delicious as the meat dishes.

The roasted potatoes were a surprise. Yun Shang ate one potato and was full with just a few dishes. Men like Mo Xuan ate a lot, and each of them ate three or four, but they were indeed full.

Looking at those potato things again, all of them were filled with joy.

One person said, "Madam, thank you, otherwise we would all have missed it."

"Yes, ma'am, can those leaves be used for cooking?"

The other person looked at the potatoes with bright eyes, wanting to try all the ways to eat them.

"The leaves can also be eaten, but their taste is a bit strong and may not be delicious when cooked."

What Yun Shang said was very pertinent. Looking at the people who were eager to try, she could only say wait and see.

She has never eaten it, but she heard that it can be eaten.

With water nearby and the food you bring, you can last a few days.

The convoy was moving very slowly, and the mountain roads were winding and undulating, and there were also mountain roads halfway up the mountain. Everyone walked carefully, and even got out of the car and walked.

The mountain is not a mountain, but horses will die if the carriage falls. When they reach a dangerous place, everyone uses iron tools to chisel the mountain wall to allow the carriage to pass.

Fortunately, the rest of the people have good hands and are not a burden.

After walking and stopping along the way, we had to send people to explore the route, and we also had to consider the safety of the campsite. Everyone was gray and gray, and they only ate dry food.

After walking for ten days, the carriage finally walked out of the mountain road and the people on both sides reunited.

The moment Chunlan Chunzhu saw her master, she burst into tears. She was nervous all the way, but she was finally safe.

Yun Shang was also very excited when she saw the two of them and asked them to sit down and rest quickly.

Mammy and Chunmei brought tea, and they drank a lot.

Finally regaining his composure, Chunzhu began to chirp about what he had seen along the way.

Yun Shang looked at the two of them distressedly. They had both lost weight, were in a mess, and their clothes were dirty. They had no time to change them.

"Madam, it's a good thing that I sent you here first, otherwise you would have been very tired along the way."

With them here, naturally nothing will happen to Madam, but if they are together, I'm afraid she will suffer.

Yun Shang knows that what the two of them said is right, so she won't refute it and will give you delicious food later.

His subordinates were naturally distressed. Mo Xuan had people cook a lot of delicious food, including meat, vegetables, and baked potatoes.

Lingyi and the others were holding dark potatoes. Although they were very fragrant, it made them blame themselves even more.

If they had come out earlier, the master and his wife would not have eaten these black briquettes.

Ling Yi looked at Mo Xuan with a guilty look, "Master, I'm sorry, Ling Yi is useless. If you had come out earlier, you wouldn't have to eat this food."

Mo Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but laugh. Where are you going with this? It seems that the people who went to pick him up didn't tell them.

"Where are you thinking? This is a new food discovered by my wife. It can be used as a staple food and will make you full. Try it quickly!"

When they heard that Madam had researched something new to eat, everyone immediately wanted to take a bite. Fortunately, Mo Xuan, who had quick eyes and quick hands, told him that it was best to eat it skinned.

The novel taste and the juicy pulp inside quickly conquered the taste buds of a group of people.

I heard that these things were found in those mountains. I immediately patted my chest and promised that I would dig out all the potatoes and leave no one behind.

Before, it was because they were worried about the convoy. If they were alone, they guaranteed that they could go back and forth in three days.

It is true. Mo Xuan and other subordinates have been practicing martial arts since childhood. Although their Qinggong martial arts are not all outstanding, they are only a little bit behind the master.

I changed into new clothes, took a cold shower, cleaned up, and felt very energetic.

Mo Xuan forced everyone to rest and strongly rejected their request to set off immediately. What a joke, he was not the type to treat his subordinates harshly.
