Chapter 33: This is so
After sending the green pepper seedlings away, Bai Mengmeng ignored the matter.
As the weather gets hotter, some late-ripening loofahs and peppers are growing in number and bearing so many fruits that even the leaves are beginning to lack nutrients.
Bai Mengmeng noticed that the soil seemed not fertile enough. The organic fertilizer she had made from kitchen waste was fermented and ready to use, so she prepared to dilute it some to add fertility to the soil.
Before it got dark, Bai Mengmeng closed the shop early.
The evening breeze made it less hot and the soil cooled down a little.
She directly took out the fermented organic fertilizer piled up in the backyard. After opening it, she found that she had only added the relevant strains of bacteria and brown sugar. However, the fermentation result was quite good. There was no bad smell, but instead a little bit of wine aroma.
Bai Mengmeng took out some and mixed it with water.
"The color is a bit weird..."
Bai Mengmeng frowned. The more she looked at it, the more it looked like...
After stirring it evenly, she did not pour the fertilizer directly on the seedlings, because this would burn the roots of the seedlings. So she just dug small holes between the seedlings, filled them with fertilizer, and covered them with soil.
I was working so hard that I was sweating profusely, when suddenly I heard footsteps outside.
She didn't care much and continued to add fertilizer, shouting outside: "Please come back tomorrow, the store is closed today."
But after a while, no other sound came from outside the door.
Just as Bai Mengmeng looked up in confusion, she found a man in white clothes standing outside the door.
"Why is it you?"
She couldn't help but be a little surprised. This man was obviously the beauty she saw in the temple last time when she accidentally walked into the wrong place. He even thought she was dirty at that time. Why did he come to the farm house today?
Putting down the fertilizer in her hand, Bai Mengmeng walked over with a puzzled look on her face: "The store is closed. If..."
The man ignored him and just stared at the fertilizer bucket, his face pale and his whole body trembling.
After a few seconds, he stepped back suddenly and said in a hoarse voice: "This is too dirty, stay away from me!"
Bai Mengmeng was speechless.
Does this person want to be beaten?
…
Yun Tingyi had eaten the dried mushrooms brought back by his assistant before and thought they tasted very good, so he also developed a strong interest in the Qiongye Restaurant.
Although he doesn't like to eat, it's just that the food doesn't meet his requirements, not that he is not hungry.
These days, he either eats vegetarian noodles or some simple fruits and vegetables in the temple, which can barely sustain his life.
After we finished eating all the vegetables delivered by Qiongye Restaurant two days ago, our family received organic vegetables from a high-end farm.
Although the taste was very good, he always felt like something was missing.
These days, he liked the vegetables from Qiongye Restaurant more and more, or rather, he missed them more and more, especially the dried mushrooms with a unique taste, which made him drool for the first time in his life.
So two days ago, he asked Xiao Li to come to Qiongye Restaurant and wanted him to pack some food. However, Xiao Li returned empty-handed, saying that there was no one in the restaurant and it closed early.
Yun Tingyi was too lazy to bother others and never mentioned the matter again.
I went out for a walk today. Since I didn’t eat much at night, my stomach was empty and I felt really hungry.
Just then, he saw the sign of Qiong Ye Restaurant not far away.
This really surprised him, so he walked in without realizing it.
However, the hall was not closed. Out of curiosity, he walked all the way to the backyard, and what he saw was a scene that made him collapse.
This thing is too dirty. Are those delicious vegetables grown in this way?
He was not some young master who was ignorant of the sufferings of the world. He also knew that in the countryside, if one wanted to grow some vegetables, one would use manure as fertilizer to enhance the fertility of the soil.
But he had never realized before that the vegetables he ate were actually grown in this way.
He has a particularly severe obsession with cleanliness. Normally, he doesn't look at it or think about it, so it doesn't matter.
But now seeing this scene, he almost vomited. He felt weak all over, his eyes were dizzy, and he almost fainted on the ground.
Bai Mengmeng didn't care how harsh his words were at this moment, and quickly said, "What's wrong with you? Do you want to call 120?"
Yun Tingyi took two steps back, his eyes full of disgust. He pointed a trembling finger at the bucket of fertilizer and said, "Is this how you grow all your vegetables? It's so dirty!"
Bai Mengmeng couldn't help but roll her eyes. Where did this immortal who is detached from the mundane world come from? Isn't it natural to plant crops and add fertilizers?
If you think even this is dirty, you might as well just live in the castle.
"This is kitchen waste. It's very clean and doesn't smell at all. Can't we use it as fertilizer?"
Yun Tingyi's expression improved a little: "So it's kitchen waste. I thought... but it's still not clean."
Bai Mengmeng finally understood. Did this person think he was using manure water for irrigation? Even if he was, what would happen?
This thing is clean, it just looks a bit like that.
And haven't we been using feces as fertilizer for thousands of years? In underdeveloped societies, was survival more important, or was cleanliness more important?
With these things, the yield after farming will not be high!
This young master doesn't know the hard work of farming. Instead, he only cares about whether it is dirty or not. People look down on him.
Bai Mengmeng was too lazy to pay attention to it anymore. She took out a spoon and stirred it vigorously twice. Then she took out the soup and put it into the dug pit.
"Handsome, go eat somewhere else. I'm closed here and I'm still working."
Yun Tingyi couldn't help it and started to dry heave. It looked like he could hardly stand.
Bai Mengmeng: ...
This is a bit exaggerated.
Putting the things down, Bai Mengmeng frowned: "Are you really okay?"
"It's okay..." Yun Tingyi squeezed out two words from his throat, then covered his mouth and turned and ran away.
He felt that he would never be able to eat food from Qiongye Restaurant again in his life.
Bai Mengmeng was completely shocked. This reaction was so exaggerated, it was a bit too much.
What on earth is this person doing here?
This strange man appeared and left in a hurry, which reminded Bai Mengmeng of another thing.
She had gone to the temple before, and the fat white monk mentioned that for some reason, snow vegetables had a bitter taste.
Bai Mengmeng later tried it herself, and the method was very simple. She just dried the snow mustard greens in the sun, and when they were a little dry, she rubbed them with salt, and then sealed and loaded them.
At Mr. Qi’s birthday party, he also made a bowl of longevity noodles with snow vegetables, and there was not a trace of bitterness in the noodles.
