Lenggong Prince Farming Story

Chapter 87 Autumn Harvest

After eating braised stew for many days, others are not tired of eating it, but the chef is already tired of it.So the two cauldrons here are still boiling, and the chef over there is studying new tricks.

Of course, you said that the chefs research new dishes are free for people to eat, it is not true.Didn't you see the grain in the field waiting to be harvested?The first standard of a foodie is to never let go of a piece of food that reaches the mouth.

Seeing that winter is approaching step by step, and the food is about to rot in the ground, Xiao Xiao's children's shoes have long been restless.But even if his strength gradually increased after practicing, and he almost caught up with Duan Yu's Lingbo Weibo when he galloped, he was still powerless in the face of a thousand acres of fertile land!

What to do, he didn't want to count on Xiyue and the others like Xia Yu Tianyan said.Even if Xia Yutianyan and Xia Yutian have been able to run perfectly for six weeks in just ten days.But it was impossible to go any faster.Xia Yu Tianyan himself understood, but he just didn't let go, and if he wanted the emperor to plow and farmland, he would definitely have to pay a price.

So, it wasn't until Xiao Xiao's children's shoes voluntarily came to sign various unequal treaties that someone was finally willing to bow down to the ground.

I have to say that the saying goes well!Older gingers are more spicy!

Due to the weather, Xiao Xiao planned to take advantage of the residual heat of the weather and make some pickles so that he could eat it in the long winter.So at least some vegetables closest to home should be collected first, followed by soybeans, potatoes, taro, pumpkin and the like.The rice is the most, and the color seems to last for a few days, so it is kept at the end.

Speaking of which, the temperature has dropped so quickly recently, Xishan and the others even brought in winter clothes.Cabbage, radish, eggplant, cowpea, cucumber, tomato and the like will be difficult to eat next year.Because there are no seeds left.

Therefore, Xiao Xiao tried to use the best method to keep them fresh if they could preserve themselves for a longer time.If it doesn't work, let's pickle vegetables again.

There are the most cabbage and radishes in the vegetable garden. As long as the water vapor is drained, it can be preserved for a long time without pickling.If the method is right, four to five months is also possible.But pickles and dried vegetables are also essential.

It doesn't matter if the sun is not good enough for drying or something, Xiao Xiao has already decided that when the time comes to use it, Xia Yu Tianyan will directly let Xia Yu Tianyan steam the vegetable dry like steaming his hair.hey-hey!

As for pickle jars, tanks and the like, there is no need to worry.In the cellar dedicated to storing dry goods in the bamboo forest, there are a lot of big vats of pickles left by the seniors!

Just wash and brush.In this long winter, vegetables mainly depend on them.

By the way, Xiao Xiao thought that he had to improve his skills as soon as possible, and look for more wild vegetables before it snowed.For some reason, ever since he knew Xia Yu Tianyan's identity, he always felt that there was always too little food at home.The cellar of his house is so big that it is only one-fifth full now.Gotta fill it up no.

Before tidying up the vegetables, Xiao Xiao had already divided all the vegetables, trying to preserve the most perfect nutrition of the vegetables.

For example, Chinese cabbage, radish, etc. can be preserved for several months, so pickle less fresh ones, cucumbers, tomatoes, etc., because there are no seeds, I may not be able to eat them for a long time in the future, so pick them up and rinse them. , Put it in a closed jar and place it in the ice cellar.Pickled cucumbers and pickled cucumbers are also indispensable.well!

Chili is easy, whether it is red or green, it can be preserved after being picked off and dried.Pumpkins, potatoes, taro, sweet potatoes, etc. are buried in the sand like radishes, and can be stored for several months in the cold winter.

In any case, ten months of winter cannot be without food, let alone vegetables.If there is not enough food, people will starve to death. Without vegetables, people's health will definitely be a problem in such a long winter. Ten months of winter!Thinking about it, I feel... Ugh!It's both anticipation and fear!

three days.

After the vegetables are roughly settled, the rest can be picked slowly before the heavy snow comes.

Afterwards, Xiao Xiao sharpened his knife and directed Xia Yutianyan to harvest red beans, mung beans, soybeans, black beans and sesame seeds.

After listening to Cao Zhi's poems, you know that the cooking of beans is to burn the Osmunda.Ha ha!Therefore, the best way to harvest beans is to uproot the whole bean seedlings, put them on the flat ground to dry, and then squeeze them lightly, and they will obediently hand over the beans.

It's easy to say, but it's easy to do... Maybe not everyone can bear it, and the hair on the bean seedlings should not be underestimated.If you are not careful, a large red spot can be stimulated on the immature skin...

If it weren't for Xiao Xiao's little friend's shameless shame, a certain emperor would have waved away long ago.

Simply put, a certain emperor put forward several harsh conditions at most, although some conditions can span several years.

However, the food in front of me is the closest thing, so what the hell, will the boat go straight when it reaches the bridge?

If you really use a sickle to cut down the bean seedlings one by one, and several kinds of soybeans in more than ten acres, they may not be able to finish them in half a month.Therefore, those lazy people always have lazy methods.Although a lot of beans were spilled in the field, they were finally brought back.

Compared with soybeans, sesame is not planted much, at most two or three acres.But for Xiao Xiao and Xia Yutianyan, there are many more. Although not all the fruits on the sesame stalks have opened their mouths now, if it is really like Xia Yutianyan harvesting beans, the sesame will definitely be reduced by more than half.In order not to be wasted by someone, Xiao Xiao prepares to do it himself bit by bit.

Have no idea!The beans can be picked up after falling on the ground, but the sesame seeds are scattered, and it is difficult to pick them up again.It's just... huh!If someone has the heart to watch him do it alone, I will 'Sayou Nala' with him tomorrow.

Of course, this busy autumn harvest is not without other entertainment.Although they are a bit rushed, because lazy people have their own lazy methods, their harvesting is not as tiring as modern farmers.

Even in my spare time, I can fish some small fish and shrimps in the sesame, bean, corn fields, and many criss-crossing creeks to go back to the meal.

These streams are actually ditches used for watering the fields, but through the efforts of generations of predecessors, these ditches carry the imprint of history and the taste of nature.

The joints of each ditch have been directly dug into small ponds of twenty or thirty square meters.In addition to being used for irrigation, these ditches and ponds are also used for breeding and planting aquatic organisms, such as fish and shrimp, snails, river shells, lotus root, water chestnut and so on.

A few days ago, Xiao Xiao was still wondering that there were no fish and shrimp in the waterfalls around, only in the ditches in the fields, but now he understood that people specially raise fish and shrimp here.

It is not nutritious to say that the water that plants drink is too clean. The water at the waterfall is suitable for people to drink, but it is not suitable for watering plants.But this ditch is different. When fish, shrimps and plants are raised, the microorganisms in the water become part of the nutrients. Fish can be raised in the ditch, and the land can be fertilized by watering it in the field.

That day, after Xiao Xiao completed one-twentieth of the three-acre land, his little face turned pale and he finally gave up doing it himself, Xia Yutianyan had a gloomy face, and with a wave of his big hand, an overwhelming tornado swept away the entire land. The sesame sticks solved it.

People don't kill people and are mad at people.Xiao Xiao watched as Xia Yu Tianyan squeezed the sesame stalks that he had piled up on the big oilcloth he had prepared earlier for the first time, and went to the stream to soak his feet to cool off the heat.

This stream is not deep, and a lot of stones have been thrown in the river bed of the stream, so that when you don't move it, you can still see the clear bottom.

When I came here this morning, Xiao Xiao took the fishing net left by the senior from the storage room.I don't know if I caught anything right now.Now he has to work hard, and the weather is not good, so it is not suitable for fishing, but when he saw the river prawns, carp, and crucian carp in the stream yesterday, he really wanted to eat oily prawns, spicy prawns, and dry-roasted prawns , sweet and sour carp balls, wrapped fish balls, braised crucian carp in vinegar.

No, all the saliva is left behind.

Thinking about it, Xiao Xiao wiped away the unnecessary saliva, got up and ran towards the junction of the pond and the creek.In the morning, Xia Yu Tianyan had already caught up with him once, and he hoped that he could harvest something now, even if he only harvested a few river prawns.He is really craving spicy prawns now.

It turned out to be much better than he asked for.There are really several river prawns, but not enough for one plate, and the so-called few in Xiao's mind are actually a big pot.In addition, he also got two or three crucian carp.Well, these three crucian carp are very fat, enough for the two of them to eat braised crucian carp with vinegar once.

Can……

Dissatisfied, dissatisfied.

"What's wrong?" Xia Yutianyan came over after finishing packing the sesame seeds.

"There are only a few, not enough to eat." Xiao Xiao pouted.He stared fiercely at the four or five river prawns in the barrel, as if staring at the barrel could give him a few more.

Xia Yutianyan glanced at the bucket.Smiling, the little guy was calling prawns last night when he was sleeping. When he came over at noon, he was also very active in finding fishing nets.It seems that if I don't get some back today, I will lose my appetite just like last night without taking a few mouthfuls of food.

Thinking of the delicious food last night, Xia Yutianyan twitched his lips.Because the little guy is thinking about what he wants to eat, he doesn't have much appetite for the food he made.But he won't!

In fact, picking up these field crops is really a piece of cake for him.However, it is very beneficial to see the little guy's distressed expression every time.Although the little thing is complaining, but every time he makes delicious food, it is more and more unstoppable.If you promise yourself that you will not repeat your cooking, you will definitely not repeat it.

Cucumbers with garlic, mushrooms and green vegetables, beef stew with tomatoes, venison with scallions, eight-treasure meatballs, pot-packed meat, braised lion head, pan-fried chicken chops, stuffed carp with meat, jar meat, crystal elbow, eight-treasure meat sauce and various He has never seen the emperor of the Xia Kingdom, the desserts he ate, etc., each meal has six dishes, and he is full of heart.Well, the weight has indeed increased recently.
