Chapter 79 Big Watermelon

Ye Zhen’s family prepared a large table of delicious food today!

There was the braised rabbit meat that she had been craving for, as well as other delicious dishes that Ye Ma was good at. Uncle Ye and his wife came with their two grandchildren and their son Ye Dong.

Today, in addition to the fish soup made from crucian carp donated by the two fat cats, there are also some seafood brought by Ye Dong.

Didn't Ye Dong go to his uncle's house to learn farming last time because his legs were not good? This time, he heard that his family was learning to grow strawberries with his uncle, so he came back to take a look.

Ye Zhen secretly used his spiritual sense to glance at Ye Dong's left leg. The muscles were atrophied and the calf was necrotic. If the existing scientific and technological methods were used, there was really no way to restore it to its original state.

There is also an unscientific method, which is a bit difficult. It requires healing with elixirs, and elixirs are made from various spiritual herbs and medicines. Spiritual energy is rare in this place, let alone things that are old and carry spiritual energy.

In addition, a pill fire furnace is needed, and the cultivation level must at least be at the foundation building level. Ye Zhen has no solution at the moment.

She herself is just a novice in Qi training.

However, you can grow some herbs first and soak them appropriately, and use them internally or externally, which will at least make your journey smoother.

I did it right away. Based on my memory, I immediately found some herbs with similar medicinal effects in real life and placed orders online. For some of them, I might have to go to the seed company to ask.

This time when Ye Dong came, he directly brought some razor clams, seaweed, clams, shrimps, crabs and the like. Ye's mother had also cooked seafood, and she either steamed them or stir-fried them.

The twins were running around happily in the yard, eating watermelons in their hands, not at all the timid and introverted look that Ye Zhen had seen them do last time.

Several adults were sitting under the grape trellis. Uncle Ye no longer looked as miserable as he had been the last time. His expression was much more cheerful and he was even talking with a smile:

"Brother, you guys can earn money growing vegetables this time! It's better than working on a construction site. You can get the money right away, and it's more comfortable to work at home!"

Father Ye puffed on his cigarette. He couldn't smoke enough, so he shared with Grandpa Ye and Uncle Ye. The three grown men puffed out clouds of smoke.

"What's the big deal? Farming depends on the weather, don't you know? This year is a good time!"

"Besides, aren't you also going to grow strawberries this year? After a while, you can make some money too!"

Hearing this, Uncle Ye's depressed mood because of working for nothing at the construction site instantly improved, and he nodded.

"Yes, the strawberries in my house are all planted from seedlings. They grow faster than other seeds and are already bearing fruit! And there are quite a lot of them!"

There are really a lot of them. The fruits are spread on the ground layer by layer, and the flowers are still blooming one by one. For this, Uncle Ye even searched the Internet for pictures of strawberry fruits. I have never seen any variety of strawberry with such a high yield.

Seeing that her husband was still worried about the number of strawberries, Aunt Ye laughed at him:

"Look, wouldn't it be good if the fruit had more? Anyway, as long as the fruit is not dead and continues to grow, you can't wait for it to grow more."

Uncle Ye was reading the information carefully. Hearing this:

"It's impossible to say if this batch of fruits grows so much, what should I do if there is no growth in the future? I heard that strawberries can produce several batches of fruits. If they only grow once, the fruit seedlings will be killed."

Aunt Ye: "This strawberry must be the best first crop! This first batch has grown so much, even if there are fewer later, it's nothing to worry about since it has grown all at once. The first crop is even more expensive."

Seeing Uncle Ye was still checking, "You might as well ask Ye directly. These seedlings belong to someone else. She must know the situation. What's the point of you looking around alone?"

"I told you that you are worrying too much. You are afraid of the fruit growing too much, and you are also afraid of the fruit growing too little. How do you want the fruit to grow?"

Uncle Ye didn't want to be afraid, but Aunt Ye didn't know the exact yield of strawberries. Besides, it was his first time growing this stuff, so how could he not be nervous?

The seedlings in Uncle Ye's family were all specially cultivated by Ye Zhen. The fruits will definitely be large and abundant, so the family will definitely water them.

Everyone has selfish desires. Ye Zhen is not a saint, and she is no exception.

Grandpa Ye also chimed in:

"Third brother, if you don't understand anything about growing strawberries, come back and ask Ye Zi. She is an expert in this kind of farming. There are so many people in our Ye family who have been farming for generations, but none of them can compare to her."

"You can make money by following Ye Zi."

Grandpa Ye is a loyal fan of Ye Zhen, especially since he made some money for his family recently. Now when he strolls around the village, he always talks about how capable Ye Zhen is!

"Oh, I know, Dad! It's just that there are too many strawberries, isn't that right?"

Uncle Ye also smiled and asked a question at the right time.

Father Ye had something to say, "Don't worry, this is how strawberries are. Having many fruits is one of their characteristics. When they are ripe, you will know that large fruits are also their characteristic. That's why many people grow them. This thing is expensive, so if they have more fruits, won't they sell for more money?"

Now Uncle Ye felt relieved and moved on to other things.

Grandpa Ye looked worriedly at Ye Dong, who was sitting next to him without saying anything. He sighed in his heart and quickly greeted him:

"Dongzi, how are you doing in your uncle's house?"

Ye Dong smiled shyly. He was a handsome young man. He was tall with a good personality. However, because of his legs, he had not yet gotten married. Now he is 26 or 27 years old.

"Not bad. I plan to learn well and also contract a piece of tidal flat land from my uncle."

Grandpa Ye nodded and praised with a smile:

"Your idea is good. Just make your own plan. If you don't have enough money, tell me!"

Ye Dong did not refuse and agreed with a smile: "If the funds are not enough, I will need everyone's help!"

The family has good relationships with relatives, so they will definitely help without hesitation. What's more, Ye Dong is a capable and independent person, and he has not given up on himself because of his leg. No matter what he wants to do, as long as there are rules, everyone is willing to help.

Ye's father and mother looked at each other, and there was kindness in the eyes of both husband and wife. Ye's father patted his chest directly:

"If you need help, please ask me. Uncle will definitely help if he can!"

"Come, try some watermelon. This is grown from a few watermelon seeds planted in Ye Zi. See if it's sweet."

Uncle Ye sat closer. After handing a piece to Grandpa Ye, he took one for himself:

“It looks good to have watermelons so early this year.”

As he said this, he took a bite. It was juicy, sweet and delicious. The cool air rushed straight into his lungs, and the extra heat from the hot weather was instantly dissipated.

He immediately praised: "This watermelon is sweet and juicy!"
