Chapter 9 Preparation
It was clearly a talisman to wish her good luck on the college entrance exam, but it also ran other businesses? Should she reward it?
Yun wanted to control the power and slowly import it until it was saturated. It seemed that he had consumed a lot today.
This should be the first time, and I don’t know how many times I can replenish my energy. Yun Xiang fell asleep quickly while thinking about it.
The next day she got up even earlier and went to see Aunt Fu in high spirits. Aunt Fu looked very happy and it seemed that she had also gained something good.
Today they went to Garden No. 4 first, where all the vegetables grown were leafy vegetables, which needed to be carefully selected.
When the vegetables from Garden No. 4 were shipped, they were trampled into pieces and there were vegetable leaves everywhere, making it a mess.
Often, you have to throw away the leaves to find the vegetables. Neither of them is a picky person, so they just roll up their sleeves and get to work.
Sometimes it's Chinese cabbage, sometimes it's cauliflower. Even after peeling off several layers of skin, there are still a lot of cabbages left.
In addition to these, there are also lettuce, rapeseed, spinach, leeks... Although the quantity is not large, there are many varieties.
"Going to Garden No. 6 in the afternoon?" Aunt Fu rubbed her waist, looking tired, but when she thought of this year's harvest, she immediately became energetic.
"Well, get some onions and garlic. And see if there are any mustard greens!" Mustard greens!
Aunt Fu sucked in her saliva and said tentatively, "You pickled that mustard green very well!"
"Didn't I teach you the method?" Yun Xiang was speechless.
"Then why does it stink when I pickle it!" It makes me sad when I think about it now.
"Tell me, why doesn't anything you pickle stink?" My mother in the previous life said that some people are born with stinky hands, and everything they pickle stink, so it's better to give up this idea as soon as possible.
“…”
"Can't you find someone else to pickle the vegetables at home?" Yun Xiang felt helpless.
Aunt Fu is stubborn. If she can't pickle the food, she thinks others can't do it either. "How about Uncle or Xiaoman give it a try?"
"No, a grown man and a little girl, what can they accomplish!" Aunt Fu waved her hands repeatedly.
"At least I'm not a stinky vegetable!" Yun Xiang said unhappily. She didn't even dare to mention Xiaoman's two brothers. Look, she knew it would be like this.
"Why do you always rub my heart?"
"It's even more annoying to waste vegetables!" Yun Xiang rolled his eyes rudely. "Besides, mustard greens aren't tasty when eaten raw, even worse than radishes. If you let them eat this every year, won't you be upset?"
"...Then... let's give it a try?" Aunt Fu hesitated.
"Whatever!" It's like this every year. You don't listen to me, so I don't care!
"What's the matter? You're showing your claws and scratching me!" Hey, I'm so angry...
"blessing-"
"Hey, we're here. There are quite a lot of people in the mustard field. Let's hurry over!"
"Uh..." Humph! You have a strong desire to survive! You're lucky you ran fast!
Yun Xiang muttered something and raised his fist and shook it in protest.
"Pfft..." Aunt Fu hurriedly squatted on the ground and pretended to look for vegetable seedlings, so as not to let Yun Xiang see her smile. She looks like a cat and her personality is even more like a cat!
Yun Xiang has always had a good temper and would only get angry when he was anxious. However, his temper came quickly but went away quickly. Aunt Fu didn't get a single smile from her the whole afternoon.
Despite his bad temper, he did harvest a lot. He dug up a lot of mustard greens, as well as garlic, ginger, and green onions.
"Where are we going tomorrow?" Aunt Fu asked with a flattering look on her face.
"Gardens 16 and 17!"
"Fresh orchard! Then I won't go. The fruits are all on the top of the branches and I can't pick them." Looking at the tone, anyone can hear the regret. Pretend, keep pretending!
"Okay, lend me Miss Man!" Yun Xiang smiled brightly.
"That's impossible. Xiaoman can't catch it with your speed!" Aunt Fu waved her hands repeatedly.
"I can slow down, and my aim is always good. Xiaoman can catch it without moving, don't worry!"
Oh my god, this will waste time. No, no, "Let me do it. It's more efficient. Besides, I'm strong and can carry the basket."
"What? You don't want to play dumb anymore?" Yun Xiang put his five fingers into his hair, smoothed back his messy hair, and looked at Aunt Fu with a half-smile.
"hey-hey!"
"Don't you pick them down below and I pick them up above every year? Or maybe you want to go up and pick them this year, and I'll pick them down below?"
"How dare I!" Don't do that. She's good at talking, but as for the rest... forget it.
"I hate your scheming side the most!" I'm really impressed. It happens every year, but once in a while, "I'm leaving!"
"Oh!" You too, I haven't seen you behave in any way on other days, you must be still angry today!
There are only a few varieties of melons in the fresh fruit orchard. Forget watermelons, cantaloupes and other melons. There are only apple trees, pear trees, apricot trees, hawthorn trees, jujube trees, and a large area of strawberry seedlings, but unfortunately they cannot be picked.
The strawberries were newly planted last fall. If we need to replace the seedlings, we have to wait and see how things go next year. Don’t count on it this year.
Yun Xiang climbed to the top of the tree with almost no effort. The branch suddenly swayed under the weight, and Yun Xiang also swayed, which frightened Aunt Fu.
He picked the three apples at the top and threw them to Aunt Fu, then slid down a little, squatted on a branch and picked the two apples at his feet.
When I looked up, I saw two in front of me, not too far away and with no branches between them. I immediately stood up and rushed forward.
"Puff puff..." Yun Xiang hung upside down steadily on the branch, grabbing one in each hand.
"Ouch!" Aunt Fu slapped her thigh in fear, "Auntie, be careful!"
"It's okay!" he said, grabbing a branch and swinging to another one.
Aunt Fu quickly picked up the basket and trotted over. When it came time to pick hawthorns and dates, Aunt Fu wanted to help and immediately showed Yunxiang how to break them.
"No, there are cameras everywhere, they will definitely catch us!" In order to prevent people from damaging the fruit trees, the plantation has spent a lot of money to purchase advanced equipment.
"well!"
"Be content. Fresh orchards weren't open before."
“That’s right!”
After being very busy for three days, Yun Xiang didn't plan to go again. She had to organize her things tomorrow as she had to prepare for her last class the day after tomorrow.
The next morning, she took out the spinach, rapeseed and lettuce from the space box, sorted them out, and tied them into small bundles, ready to sell.
Then there are leeks and coriander. There isn't much coriander, so she keeps it for herself to make cold dishes. She can sell more leeks, but she has no flour, so forget about making leek buns or dumplings.
I'll take out most of the fruit and try to can or dry the rest. The rest won't spoil either, so I'll leave it that way for now.
Yun wanted to take advantage of the lunch break to run to the market and sell his things. Because he had a space box this year, the vegetables were very juicy and he sold them at a good price.
I also bought some ground cumin powder and chili powder. Maybe they would be used for barbecue outdoors. After thinking about it, I reluctantly bought some nutritious seasonings at a high price to remove the astringency.
It was a rare opportunity to have such a good harvest, so she deserved to treat herself. After checking the time, she took out a few apples from the cellar and prepared to make dried apples.
She didn't know how to do the complicated work, so she just washed the apples, dried them, cut them into slices, and put them in the oven.
It was dried in a short time. I tasted it and found that it tasted sweeter and less astringent. It was better than eating it directly.
Yun wanted to roast the remaining ones, let them cool, put them in a fresh-keeping box, put them in a space box, and prepare to eat them in the wild.
