Whose farming family has the male protagonist giving three piglets as a gift at the beginning?
Chapter 652: Harvest (Part )
"That's right. The more you open it, the more you want to open it. The heads are getting bigger and bigger, and you don't feel tired at all." Father Su also smiled from ear to ear.
"I estimate that production will increase significantly this year, and 20 percent is conservative."
Su Ziling took out a few corn cobs from the backpack and looked at them. They were indeed big, more than twice the size of last year. She tore off a shell and saw that the corn kernels inside were golden, plump and shiny, and looked as if they had been washed.
The corn tips don't have false tips, and the corn kernels are all full and plump.
"This corn is very full, unlike last year when it had a lot of false tips."
"If we follow this approach, we could potentially increase production by 30%."
Su Ziling was also very happy to see the significant increase in corn production. She thought that nothing could make people happier than an increase in grain production.
"Last year's was good, the ones from a few years ago were even worse." Father Su tied up the cow. "Have you made tea? I'm so thirsty."
"It's soaked and placed in the living room. I think it's ready to drink." Su Ziling put down the corn in his hand, "The steamed bread is ready. Do you want to eat it at home or take it to the field?"
"Eat at home. After you finish eating, we can take over your mother's shift. We'll eat while they eat."
Grandpa Su didn't forget to throw some grass for the cow.
"Okay, then I'll go serve the food and pack my mother's food as well."
Su Ziling turned back into the house and brought the steamed buns to the table. She also took out her fried grandmother's vegetables and boiled eggs. She didn't cook them spicy in case they were not used to it, so she also took out some pickled peppers and pickled ferns from the jar.
To prevent choking, she also made a bowl of wild tomato and egg soup. Wild tomatoes have begun to proliferate recently, and the mountains and fields are full of bright red tomatoes.
It would be a waste if we didn't pick them and let them rot in the mountains, but if we picked them we wouldn't be able to eat them all. So Su Ziling simply learned how to make a jar of sour soup. It was her first time making it, so she didn't know if it would work.
When I was traveling in my previous life, I ate fish cooked in red sour soup once and fell in love with it at once.
After all, their tastes are similar, and I later studied how to make it, but I just never had the time to implement it.
Now she can only do it based on her vague memory.
After the food was served, she stood by the door and called out, "Grandpa, it's time to eat."
Grandpa Su and his men came over very quickly. It was the busy farming season and they really couldn't waste even a moment.
They ate very quickly, taking only three or two bites of a steamed bun, and then drinking two bowls of soup after finishing. They were sweating even less, but they set off in a hurry.
After all, it is still relatively cool now, so you should work as much as you can. You can take a break when it gets hot in the afternoon, otherwise you really can’t stand under the scorching sun.
When Grandpa Su and his crew set out for the second trip, Su Ziling began to wash her fruits and also distributed a bowl of noodles. Thinking that breaking corn was strenuous work and eating porridge would not satisfy her hunger, and rice would be hot, she simply cooked a pot of porridge and then steamed a pot of steamed buns.
By the time they came back for dinner, the porridge had gotten cold, and it was cooler to eat it cold.
She tries to process the fruits in the morning and dry them in the sun, then go to pick corn in the afternoon and make wine the next morning.
With more people, the process is fast. By early noon (11:00), the second batch of corn had been delivered.
But Su's mother and the others had not returned yet, and Grandpa Su and the others did not take a break. They poured the corn in the house and set off again, saying that they were not very hungry after eating the steamed corn bread, so they would go and pick some more and then come back to eat.
It was the hottest time of the year, so I took a break after dinner and then continued to break the rice.
Seeing that it was almost time, Su Ziling went to cook the dishes. In this weather, cold dishes and sour and spicy dishes are indispensable. The hotter the weather, the more sour food people like as it whets their appetite.
Since the potatoes were dug, her family has had to eat them every few days. Of course, they didn't dare to eat too much of them, and had to save some of them for seeds.
However, this amount of seeds was not enough to be distributed, so Su Ziling told Chen San in advance and asked him to help transport more back.
However, they sent the escort to different places each time and might not necessarily meet Yang Yu. There was no choice but Su Ziling went to the Sihai Escort Agency to request an escort himself.
Qing Wu knew about this, and while preparing manpower for her, he reported it to Lu Yan.
In fact, she wanted to go by herself, but Grandma Su and the others wouldn't let her, so the matter was left unresolved.
At the beginning of the Wei hour (13:00), Grandpa Su and his family arrived home on time, all of them were exhausted and sweating, especially Mother Su and the other women, whose cheeks were flushed and their hair stuck to their faces.
Although I was tired, I was more happy. Looking at the corn piled up in the house, I felt full of energy.
Everyone washed their faces and the food was already on the table.
Today's meal is relatively simple, with porridge and steamed buns as the staple food. There is a bowl of boiled bacon, steamed pickled pork ribs, cold tofu, mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs with leeks, and pickled sour fern to go with the rice. I took out another bowl, and even the pickled vegetables were not left out.
Afraid that Ji Yunhe would be shy, he deliberately let her sit between Su Ziling and An An.
Mother Su scooped a bowl of porridge for her and said, "Yunhe rarely comes to our house for dinner. Don't be shy. Just be like at home."
"Don't worry, Auntie. This girl is very thick-skinned. She doesn't know what shyness is when she sees food." Ji Yunchu spoke for Ji Yunhe while helping to distribute chopsticks.
Ji Yunhe didn't show any displeasure, and smiled, "Don't worry, grandma, the food that Aqing cooks is delicious. When I see these delicious foods, I don't have time to be shy."
After she finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter.
Father Su couldn't stand the heat. He looked around while drinking his porridge, "Do you have ice jelly? It's a bit too hot."
"Ah! Yes!" Su Ziling put down his bowl and chopsticks, "I rubbed it when I got up this morning, and then hung it in the well to calm it down. If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten about it."
She pulled up the jelly, touched the edge of the basin, and felt it was so cold that it felt like freezing her hands. She took out another bowl, took out the small glutinous rice balls, taro balls in syrup, and added them to everyone's bowls one by one.
"There is no fruit today, so I just added sugar water and small dumplings."
Ji Yunhe also stood up to help, "Just sugar water is enough. You have no idea how comfortable it is to have a bowl of ice jelly in this weather. Ah! There are taro balls! That's even better. I like taro balls, hehe."
She brought the ice jelly over and Su Ziling was responsible for scooping it out.
"Yes, but there aren't many left. I asked someone to bring some back, but I don't know when it will arrive. You like taro balls, so I'll scoop some more for you. Here, this bowl is yours."
"Hehe, thank you Ah Qing." Ji Yunhe held her bowl happily.
"Sister-in-law, what do you like to eat? I'll add it for you." Su Ziling did not forget to ask An An. He was eating it himself instead of selling it, so of course he could add whatever he wanted.
"I'm fine with anything, anything ordinary will do." An An turned around and smiled.
Su Zizhong glanced at her and said to Su Ziling, "Your sister-in-law likes sweet food, so add more sugar water."
When he spoke, An An's face turned red. Seeing that everyone was looking at them, she raised her hand and pinched him lightly under the table.
"Okay, that's fine! You have to be the eldest brother. We don't even know what sister-in-law likes to eat!" Su Ziling joked while adding sugar water.
She said, "Sister-in-law, if you want to eat anything, just tell me directly. This is all homemade and free. You can add whatever you want, and you can add more."
"Yeah." An An nodded in response. Thinking of the planting methods and corn harvests she saw today, she looked at Su Ziling, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
She had talked about this with Su Zizhong last night, thinking of asking if he could teach her parents about it. Apart from anything else, a bigger harvest would mean more food to eat.
Su Zizhong glanced at her, his eyes full of encouragement.
