Chapter 520 Yellow Heart Sweet Potato

Chapter 520 Yellow Heart Sweet Potato

"Hey, I'm at home. I'm at home. Wait a minute. I'll come out right away." Old man Li stood at the door and responded and hurried to hitch the ox cart.

Aunt Li also came out after hearing the sound, holding two roasted sweet potatoes in her hand.

"Qing girl, why are you late today? You and I, Old Man Li, were just talking. I guess it's getting dark now."

As she said that, she handed the sweet potato in her hand to her, "Here, have a roasted sweet potato."

"I won't eat the sweet potatoes. We just came out from dinner." Su Ziling smiled and waved her hand in refusal.

"I was delayed for a while when I got up in the morning. Today is the scheduled day to deliver vermicelli, so I can't go."

After Su Ziling finished speaking, she took out two kilograms of vermicelli and ten preserved eggs from her backpack, "Auntie, this is for you."

"No, no, you can take it to the county and sell it. Your old man and I will never eat this good thing." When she saw that it was vermicelli, Aunt Li waved her hands quickly.

She still remembered that Old Man Li told her when he came back that Su Ziling's vermicelli cost two hundred yuan per catty. Looking at the two bundles she handed over, it was at least four to five hundred yuan.

How dare she accept it?

"Auntie, take it. I've been bothering you and Old Man Li a lot during this time. Even Old Man Li helped a lot when selling tofu. Take it. I don't know how much it will cost. If you don't take it, I won't do it next time. I dare to trouble you."

"You girl!" Seeing her scoundrel look, Aunt Li was a little dumbfounded, "Chengchengcheng, take it, take it."

Seeing her take the vermicelli, Su Ziling laughed and said, "That's right. I'll have to trouble you in the future. If you don't take it, I won't dare to speak again."

"You silly girl," Aunt Li looked at the things in her hands, "Why are there duck eggs here? We have them at home, so we don't need to give them."

"These are preserved eggs, which are pickled from collected duck eggs. You can use them to cook porridge, or you can eat them cold. Add some pepper and green plum vinegar."

When Su Ziling asked for plums from her family, she taught Aunt Li how to make green plum vinegar.

I also told her that adding some chili peppers would make the food taste better.

Speaking of peppers, Aunt Li's eyes lit up, "I still have some peppers at home. This winter, your uncle and I will pick up some here and there and collect more than ten kilograms. When you come back later, we can take them back together."

"I also saved some seeds and plan to plant some this year. When they turn red and dry, I will send them to you."

"It's good to plant peppers. If your family has a lot of cow dung, the peppers you grow will definitely bear more fruit. And if you want to plant them, you can sow the seeds and raise seedlings in the next two days."

Su Ziling explained to her in detail how to raise seedlings, how to apply manure, and how to water the seedlings every few days. She spoke carefully, and Aunt Li also listened carefully.

"Hey, darling, there are so many bosses here? I thought it was just like planting corn, just poke a hole and drop the seeds."

She was afraid and said: "Thanks for my mentioning it, otherwise I might not be able to plant it this year."

"Then I have to prepare to sow the seeds today. I will sow the seeds behind the house. It is easy to water and I can observe its condition every day. The ground is ready and so is the manure. I have dried some and piled them in the backyard. It will be used just right."

"By the way, Xiaoqing, if this is..." Aunt Li suddenly stopped mid-sentence.

Seeing that she was hesitant to speak, Su Ziling smiled and said, "Auntie, if you have anything to say, just tell me. Do you still want to hide it from me?"

"Then I've said it?" Aunt Li breathed a sigh of relief, "Many people in our village have said that we should plant a little. I'm afraid that if we plant too much, what will you do if you can't afford so much? It seems that your family is the only one in this county. I want this pepper."

"Although we have learned to eat it now, and it tastes really good, it can't be eaten as food. If you eat three to five kilograms all year round, it's not enough. If you grow a few hundred kilograms of this..."

Su Ziling understood her concerns, "Auntie, you are worrying too much about this. You can tell everyone about these peppers and feel free to plant them as much as I want. To be honest with you, my family also planted a lot this year. Apart from you, After selling it, I took the caravan to other places to buy several hundred kilograms."

"At that time, aunt, you can also tell everyone about the planting methods and precautions. If anyone doesn't understand, you can come to Baihua Cave. We are all at home."

"Hey, I'm relieved to hear you say that. I'll tell everyone to go and sow the seeds together later." Aunt Li was completely relieved at this time.

"Come, come, come, eat this sweet potato. Don't look at me, this sweet potato is small. It has a yellow heart and is much sweeter than the white one."

When Su Ziling heard that it belonged to Huang Xin, Su Ziling immediately took the hand that she had rejected, "Is it Huang Xin's?"

"Yes, your old man Li picked two of them up from somewhere, buried them in the backyard and spread the word. If you plant a little each year, there will be more."

When Su Ziling heard that it was Huang Xin, she couldn't wait to tear open the skin. Sure enough, it was really Huang Xin, but it didn't have the yellow color of later generations, just a touch of yellow.

She took a small bite, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"How's it going? Isn't it sweet?"

Seeing her expression, the aunt raised her chin proudly.

"Ang, sweet! It's indeed much sweeter than white hearts. Madam, do you have more at home? Give me two, and I'll go back to raise seedlings. I'll plant some too."

It is indeed a degree sweeter than Bai Xin, and even the taste is much more delicate and pink.

"Yes, I'll get them for you when you come back later. I'll take two more and go back to plant them." Seeing that she liked them, Aunt Li was also happy.

She has just taken so many things from her, and she is worried about not returning the favor. As long as she likes it, then I will give her some of the dishes she cooked, and there will be comings and goings.

The two of them were talking happily when Old Man Li's bullock cart was already hitched, "Okay, okay, if you have anything to say, I'll come back later. Let's set off early. I'm afraid it's going to rain today."

"Auntie, let's go then!" Su Ziling jumped onto the bullock cart and waved to Auntie Li.

"Go, go, be careful on the road," Aunt Li stood at the door and watched them leave. She could no longer see them and then turned back to the yard.

As soon as the door closed, she screamed, "This old man is urging me to do something, but he didn't even take his raincoat."

She took the raincoat and came out to the door, but the oxcart was no longer on the road.

Reluctantly, she went back to her house, put her things away, locked the door and headed towards the village, where she had to chat with the old sisters and talk about how to grow peppers.
