The carriage entered the mountains and arrived at the door of the inn.
Eleven: "Your Majesty, Imperial Master, we have arrived."
Not far away, Twelve was watering the cornfield.
As soon as he saw Qi Pan, Ying Zheng and his group, he immediately put down the wooden barrel in his hand.
Walking towards this side quickly.
Twelve: "Your Majesty! Sir!"
"You guys are finally here!"
Qi Pan, Ying Zheng, Fusu and Ying Yinman had just gotten off the carriage.
Seeing Twelve blushing with excitement and a little overwhelmed, Qi Pan smiled.
"Twelve, it's been a while."
"How's it going? How's that corn growing?"
Hearing Qi Pan asking about Yu Mai, Twelve quickly spoke seriously.
"Sir, the corn is growing well."
"I watered it every once in a while, just as you instructed."
"No, I'm just about to finish watering it."
Qipan: "Well, you did a good job and took good care of the corn."
After receiving Qi Pan's praise, Twelve scratched his head a little embarrassedly.
"Hey, thank you, Mr.
Fusu and Ying Yinman looked into the cornfield with some curiosity.
Fusu: "Master, are those corns?"
"The last time I came here, I hadn't grown this tall yet."
Qi Pan: "You just sprouted a little bit last time you came, so of course it's different."
Ying Yinman has excellent eyesight.
She stared at the ears of corn. "They look so full of life."
"Those flowers are in clusters, they look so special."
Pray: "Corn is indeed very vigorous."
“It’s drought-resistant, heat-resistant, and high-temperature-resistant, and it still has a high yield.”
"In our part of the world, many people grow corn."
"It is one of the main foods for most people in summer."
"Especially in Guangxi, where it's hot in the summer, we often grind corn into flour and cook it into corn porridge."
"Add pickled mustard greens, diced papaya or dried radish, and pickles to it, and it's a summer delicacy."
“It’s a rare appetizer.”
"There's a saying that goes, 'On a hot day, if you give me a bowl of corn porridge and pickled mustard greens, I wouldn't trade them for meat.'"
Ying Yinman was a little surprised when she heard this.
"Master, are corn porridge and pickled mustard greens better than meat?"
Qi Pan: "Meat is too greasy in the summer. Corn porridge and pickled mustard greens are better."
"It quenches your thirst and stimulates your appetite."
Ying Yinman was a little confused.
In their area, most people can't even afford to eat meat.
And the people from the National Master's world actually picked it up and refused to eat any meat.
Qi Pan, Ying Zheng, Fusu, Ying Yinman and others came to the cornfield.
The ground in the cornfield was a little wet, and Qipan walked to the nearest corn.
Take a close look at their flower spikes and the corn silk that grows out.
Some corns have already grown into small corn pods.
A little bit of corn silk appeared on the top.
After a careful inspection, Qi Pan said, "It's pretty good. Pollination is going well."
"They're all about the same size, pretty even."
Ying Yinman: "Great, how long will it take for these corns to mature?"
Pray: "Thirty-five to forty-five days left."
"As time goes by, the corn will mature little by little."
"Their leaves will slowly turn from green to yellow."
"A kernel of corn will also grow from a small one slowly."
The four of them walked slowly around the cornfield.
I hope to explain corn to them.
From the growth habits of corn to the growth stages, to maturity and harvest.
There are also corn stalks, corn leaves, corn silk, and corn cobs. I told them one by one about their functions and the effects after eating them.
Ying Zheng: "A single corn plant can actually have so many uses?"
"Corn stalks are not only edible, but can also be used as firewood."
"And the leaves, corn silk, and corn cobs can actually be boiled into water and drunk."
“It’s edible and can cure diseases.”
"This tiny corn plant is full of treasures."
Pray: "After the roots of the corn stalks are dried, they can also be used as firewood."
"We used to pick them up from the fields when we were little."
"Harvest the corn stalks, dig up the ground, and turn the corn roots out to dry in the sun."
"After drying, pound it on the ground to knock off the dirt."
"It can provide enough firewood for several days."
When she was a child, she followed her friends to pick them up in the fields.
I also picked up corn.
After harvesting the corn grown in other people's fields, she and her friends carried bags and went to search through them one by one.
Sometimes if you are lucky, you can find corn that others have missed.
At this time, she will be the most envied among her friends.
But most of the time, we find some small ones with uneven growth.
There are only two or three kernels of corn on a cob.
But they were not discouraged.
Often, half a snakeskin bag can be found at the end of the day.
When put together, it becomes more.
The same goes for peanuts.
Every time I would wait until others had finished harvesting, then search again before leaving.
She and her friends would rush forward with bags in hand.
Holding a small hoe and a small shovel, he turned and dug in the ground.
Sometimes you can find a peanut or two.
Sometimes, if you accidentally use too much force, the small hoe or shovel will break the peanuts into two pieces.
This kind of thing cannot be wasted and must be picked up.
You can eat them as they are peeled, or you can wait until they are dried, add some salt, and cook them into salted peanuts.
