Although she didn't know much about the North, she did know that some plants from the South couldn't necessarily be grown in the North.

So, while chayote can grow to such a high yield in Guangdong that neighbors are sick of eating it, it's uncertain whether it will even survive in the north.

"It should be okay, right?" Chen Suwen pondered for a moment.

“In the north, chayote can be planted around April or May, and it can definitely be harvested before winter.”

"Send a few to your second son and his family, and preserve them so they don't die on the way and become unusable."

Ye Yulian listened to her advice, nodded, and went to pick chayote.

Chayote, along with loofah, pumpkin, and winter melon, is the highest-yielding vegetable and fruit grown by Chen Suwen's family, and there are many chayotes on the trellis.

Ye Yulian picked a little of everything, whether it was big or small, or even old.

She also wanted to grow chayote. Although she didn't really like eating it fresh, chayote could fill her stomach in these days of food scarcity.

After drying them and storing them, you can take them out, soak them, and stew them when you want to eat them, which will fill your stomach.

Especially her children, who were already suffering when they were sent to the countryside, she was very worried that they wouldn't be able to work well, earn work points, or have enough to eat.

The last time her second son finally came home on leave, she felt sorry for him when she saw how thin and dark he looked.

Although she valued her eldest son more, it didn't mean she didn't love her second son. So when she saw how hard he had worked and how thin he had become, she felt sorry for him.

"Do you still have any mustard seeds? Could you give me some? I'll send some to my second son's family as well."

"Sigh, I wonder when the second brother and the others will be able to return to the city. They can't stay there forever, can they?"

She didn't have the ability to arrange a future for her children like Chen Suwen did, preventing them from being sent to the countryside to work.

Sometimes she was quite jealous; her children were all around her, and she didn't have to worry about going to the countryside to work. She was so lucky.
