Chapter 18: grow vegetables (1/2)

It's been ten days since Zhou Cheng left, and he doesn't know when he will come back. Pei Xiu misses him a little.

Recently, the weather is getting colder and colder. The cotton-padded clothes and quilts have been prepared. Several children have put on cotton-padded clothes, so they are not afraid of the cold. She gave a piece of the leftover fabric to her sister-in-law and asked her to make clothes too.

''You can keep it for yourself. There are so many children who are still growing, so they can be used later. '' The sister-in-law pushed and refused, why is this little sister-in-law's hand so loose?

''Sister-in-law, don't push it, Pei Qing is fifteen years old, and she is about to say kiss. If you don't do it yourself, make her a suit. Which little girl doesn't like to be pretty. '' Pei Xiu directly wrapped the cloth and put it in the basket, she was the most impatient to push it around like this.

The sister-in-law saw how determined the sister-in-law was, so she accepted it. When would she send some eggs over? She came every day recently, but she saw that the sister-in-law boiled eggs every day, and the chickens ate all the eggs laid every day without saving. . Eggs from the countryside are a good thing, and they can be exchanged for money. No one is willing to eat them. It is a decent gift to take away. How can I boil the eggs that my sister-in-law lays every day, it's a waste of money.

''Xiu'er, what are you growing in the wooden boxes in your house? I haven't seen it for so many days, but it can germinate even in such a cold day, and the little buds look good. . '' Sister-in-law was a little curious, and she had been holding it back for many days. After finishing the work at hand, her curiosity could not calm down.

''Newly obtained seeds, it's so cold outside now, so I put them on the kang in the house and set them on fire. I don't know if they can work, so I'll try. I planted leeks, small greens, and spinach in the baby's house. Not to mention, they are growing very well. I have already cut a bunch of leeks. '' Pei Xiu knew that she couldn't hide it from her sister-in-law. Now that it is growing so well, if it is really planted, it will be planted for her family first.

''It's almost winter, can you still harvest it? I gonna go see. '' Sister-in-law was a little surprised, Pei Xiu didn't know what seeds were in the house, and whether she could survive or not had little to do with her. But if this dish can be grown in the house, she can learn it too, right? This way there are vegetables to eat in winter. Not every day cabbage radish.

Sister-in-law looked at it, and it can really be planted in the house, and the leeks have grown quite tall, and it is gratifying to look at the water. Can a wooden box be planted? ''

''Okay, but sister-in-law, you have to secretly grow the crops. You can't tell others. If the food in the house is too much, we can sell it in the town. '' No one else can tell, even if my parents can help me, my eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law are diligent people.

''Can you still use the town to sell it? '' Sister-in-law's mind is a little bit lost. In her opinion, how much is the vegetable worth? No one in the countryside grows a lot of vegetables in the yard.

''Of course it's ok. Where can people in the city have a place to grow vegetables? Don't they buy all the vegetables they eat, and it's still winter, where can there be green vegetables in the fields? We sell this dish to restaurants, to big families, and the price can be higher than usual. ''

Sister-in-law's eyes lit up when she heard it. What my sister-in-law said was very reasonable. Isn't that the truth? Who can have green vegetables in winter, not all radishes and pickles. '' I kept nodding, I didn't say anything, I planted it secretly in the house, so that your brother was not allowed to talk outside. ''
