Ye Yutong baked the jerky, baked some biscuits, made a few glasses of watermelon juice, and went to the basement to get some fruits.
Seeing that my mother and eldest brother were digging in the ground there, both of them were sweating a lot, so they shouted: "Mom, eldest brother, let's stop here today. Let's have something to eat and go back."
Li Wenxiu wiped his sweat and said, "Tongtong, it's still early, why don't you and I work together for a while? We haven't dug much in the land yet."
As a farmer, she felt anxious when she saw so much empty land without planting anything.
Ye Yutong hurriedly advised: "Mom, don't worry. I just remembered that the gods said that the cows on the mountain can be used to plow the fields. I forgot about it."
She really forgot about the two cows on the mountain at first, but when she heard the braying of the cows on the mountain just now while having a barbecue, she remembered that the two cows she bought before were used for plowing the fields.
Li Wenxiu said disapprovingly: "Tongtong, that cow is pregnant with a calf, so we can't let it do heavy work. There isn't much land here. Your eldest and second brothers and I dug it all in two days."
"Mom, isn't there another bull? I'll bring that bull to plow the fields tomorrow."
She thought to herself that the cow had been raised with good grass and good food since she bought it. In the past, it was small and there was not much land to farm, so Lin Yutong did it by himself.
But now that the cow has grown up, and there is so much work in the fields, we can't just let it watch over it. Can I do it?
What good things do you think of? She bought it for work, not as a pet. Even if it is a pet, she can't just eat it for free.
Ye Mingxuan put down the hoe and asked, "Sister, what are you growing on this land?"
"Grow wheat and rice, and then plant some sweet potatoes and potatoes. The gods said that the yield of these grains will be very high. If these grains are planted well, we will not have to worry about food in the future."
Ye Mingxuan had never heard of these two grains, and asked in confusion: "Sister, what are sweet potatoes and potatoes?"
"Sweet potatoes are the ones I cook in porridge in the morning. There are many ways to eat them. The gods say that one acre of land can produce several thousand kilograms.
Potatoes are also a kind of food, but they are not as sweet as sweet potatoes. They can be used for stir-frying and stewing, and the yield is similar to that of sweet potatoes. "
Ye Yutong told him about the various ways to eat sweet potatoes and potatoes, as well as how to grow them.
Li Wenxiu and Ye Mingxuan were both stunned. How many kilograms of real estate per acre? My mother, what kind of magical crop is this?
In their mortal land, one acre of top-quality land can yield up to two hundred kilograms of grain. They have to work on the land every day to have such a good harvest.
A hundred and eighty pounds from a low-grade field would be pretty good, but a few thousand pounds would be unthinkable.
Ye Yutong felt very proud when he saw the two of them dumbfounded.
The production of grain can be so high, so that people no longer starve, thanks to the hard work of modern Grandpa Yuan and agricultural scientists.
Without them working hard in the fields for decades, where would these high-yielding grains come from?
"Mom, brother, don't worry about this now. Let's go eat something quickly and go back to bed. I'm so sleepy." He yawned.
The two of them came back to their senses instantly, went to the stream to wash their hands and faces, and then followed Ye Yutong back to the courtyard.
There was a round table in the middle of the courtyard, with several glasses of watermelon juice, a plate of biscuits, a plate of dried meat, a plate of strawberries, a plate of cherries, a few bananas and apples on it.
Ye Yutong greeted: "Mom, brother, sit down and eat."
The two of them had been working for so long and were a little hungry.
Especially Ye Mingxuan, who was at this age when he was a poor man, and his stomach was like a bottomless pit that could hold any number of things.
I usually restrain myself, not even daring to eat more wild vegetables and roots, so I just want to save a few bites so that my mother and sister can eat more.
Now that he sees so many tempting delicacies and can eat as much as he wants, even if he usually restrains himself, he can't help but drool now.
Li Wenxiu had already sat down. Seeing that his son was still standing there, he shouted, "Mingxuan, sit down and eat. Let's go back after we finish. Your sister is already sleepy."
"Oh, okay, mother, sister, you can eat too."
Ye Mingxuan took a small biscuit and ate it first, "Sister, this snack is so delicious."
"Brother, you can eat more if you like. I made a lot. The gods have already taken away her share, and there is still a lot left."
This biscuit is baked with eggs, white sugar and flour. The method is very simple and the ingredients are very clean. Ye Yutong often baked it before time travel.
The three of them finished the food on the table and each drank a glass of watermelon juice before leaving the room.
Ye Yutong poured the remaining watermelon juice into two bowls, took some biscuits, and asked his elder brother to bring them to Li Yunze and Ye Mingzhe.
Ye Mingzhe was bragging to Li Yunze, saying that when he was a child, he had never lost in fights with village children.
Li Yunze listened attentively, with a smile in his eyes, watching him making heyyyyyy gestures.
When Ye Mingxuan pushed the door open and came in, Ye Mingzhe was talking about something wonderful. He looked back and went over to ask: "Brother, aren't you helping me knit straw sandals again? Why are you back so early?"
"My sister was sleepy, so my mother asked me to come back. These are the snacks that my mother bought in town today. She asked me to bring them to you and your brother-in-law."
Ye Mingzhe took the biscuits first, then looked at the water in the two bowls, and asked, "Brother, is this for us to drink?"
"Yes, my mother has mixed some sugar water for you two. Eat some snacks, drink the water, and go to bed early!"
Li Yunze ate a biscuit and took a sip of sugar water. He knew that this was definitely not a taste that ordinary sugar could produce.
But he had never drank this kind of thing, and he didn't know what it was made of. He drank the bowl of sugar water in small sips, but did not eat more biscuits.
He lies in bed every day and doesn't do much work, so it doesn't matter if he eats less.
Food is definitely not easy to buy in this world, and this family is already having a hard time. If he takes one less bite, the rest of his family will be able to eat more.
Ye Mingzhe saw that he stopped eating the biscuit after tasting it, so he said, "Brother-in-law, why don't you eat it? This snack is so delicious! You are not in good health. Eat more to get better soon."
Ye Mingxuan also advised: "Ping An, you and Mingzhe finish eating separately. Mom bought a big bag in the town today. Don't worry, your health is the most important thing."
Li Yunze waved his hand and said: "Brother, second brother, I'm not being polite, I really can't eat anymore and I haven't even digested dinner yet.
I'm different from you. You have to work. I lie in bed every day and don't move. I really can't eat that much. "
Ye Mingzhe didn't eat after hearing what he said.
After eating so much rice for dinner, it is a bit wasteful to eat cookies now.
If you don’t work at night, why eat so much? It's better to save it for tomorrow when you work.
