Chapter 249
Jiang Si touched the green grass. Xiao Meng and the others couldn't wait to eat it, mouthful after mouthful.
Jiang Linhai said: "This growth rate is a bit unusual!"
Jiang Si nodded. "It's indeed a bit unusual. This is too fast!"
Shen Baoying also squatted down and touched the grass, "It's okay for mammoths to eat it, so it should be fine, just like the mutant radish?"
Jiang Si sighed and said, "Although the mutant radish has grown big, its growth rate is not as exaggerated as it would be if it only took two or three days!"
Zhang Qingfang nodded: "At this rate of growth of forage grass, other plants that can recover will also lose their living space."
If it weren't for Jiang Si's space barrier, their descendants would probably only be able to see plants like forage grass.
Jiang Si touched her belly and was very worried about the future.
Suddenly I felt a little regretful about having this child.
Qin Shen seemed to have sensed Jiang Si's thoughts. He put his arm around her shoulders to comfort her and said to her, "Is it possible that the fertilizer is too nutritious?"
Jiang Si's eyes lit up, "Very likely!"
If it were just because of mammoth dung, there would be no need to worry about these grasses spreading in the future.
Jiang Linhai also said, "Even if it's not the fertilizer, it's actually quite good. There's no water in other places, so it can't reproduce even if it wants to. If it grows nearby, the mammoths will have enough food."
Jiang Si nodded and said, "Let's find out if it's the fertilizer that's causing it."
Zhang Qingfang said excitedly, "If it were just fertilizer, we could grow several crops of food a year!"
Jiang Chengwu chuckled: "Let's do as Sisi said and study it first!"
Everyone immediately took action and brought back some fresh mammoth dung.
When they brought back the mammoth dung, Zhang Aihua and the others gathered around and asked, "Are you going to use this as fertilizer?"
Jiang Ancheng nodded: "Yes, let's see if it works wonders. Look at the grass outside the barrier. Maybe if we use it, we can eat fruit tomorrow!"
Zhang Yiwen's eyes suddenly widened. He was craving for fruit so much that he almost died.
It feels like I haven't eaten fruit in hundreds of years.
He immediately asked Zhang Aihua, "Dad, let's go get some shit too?"
Zhang Aihua didn't dislike the stench of mammoth feces, but was worried that they would be accidentally stepped on by the mammoths when they went to clean their poop.
Once they leave the barrier, no one will be able to protect them.
The greatest danger was the mammoth.
Zhang Yiwen said, "Dad, you have to be brave. I will go with you!"
Zhang Aihua patted his head with relief, "Dad should go and try to make sure you and your mother can eat strawberries tomorrow."
The seeds given by Jiang Si are all random.
Zhang Aihua was lucky enough to win the strawberries that his wife loved to eat, and he has already figured out how to make the seeds germinate.
Zhang Yiwen cheered: "Dad, then you do your best!"
Zhang Aihua couldn't help but laugh and said, "You little bastard, you don't really want to go with me, do you?"
Zhang Yiwen's face turned stern. "How could you doubt your son Chicheng's heart? It's really unfair!"
"Okay, okay, I wronged you."
Zhang Aihua spotted another pile of shit that looked like a small hill at the edge closest to the barrier. He specially wove a new basket with vines and prepared to get some shit back.
Kilton took a fancy to the basket in his hand and walked over to him and said, "Mr. Zhang Aihua, your basket is very clever. Can you give one to my brother and me? We have some bugs to exchange with you."
Zhang Aihua shook his head. "I don't need bugs right now. If you want baskets, go get me five baskets of mammoth dung."
When they heard that there would be a basket for the manure after they came back, Kilton and Mina happily accepted it. "Okay, Mr. Zhang Aihua, please wait here for us. We will go now!"
Kilton and Mina took Zhang Aihua's basket, left the barrier, and were discovered by the mammoth when they walked to the dung pile.
But the mammoths weren't interested in two humans trying to mess with their poop.
Moreover, the leader had previously instructed us not to make enemies with humans. They only eat vegetarian food anyway, so we have even less interest in them.
The moment the mammoth targeted them, the brother and sister were both startled.
Fortunately, the mammoth raised its head and looked at them, then buried its head in eating grass again.
Kilton quickly collected his poop, and Mina also helped.
After two trips back and forth, Kilton and Mina successfully handed over five baskets of poop to Zhang Aihua.
Zhang Aihua also gave them two baskets.
Although they smelled of shit, Mina and Kilton were still quite happy to have a basket to put their things in.
When I was about to leave, I suddenly remembered to ask, "What are you doing with the poop?"
They had never farmed before and didn't know that poop could be used as fertilizer.
Zhang Aihua smiled and said, "I'm going to mix it with a little water to make fertilizer and water the seedlings. This way they will probably grow better."
Kilton and Mina suddenly realized what was going on. They looked at the seedlings in Zhang Aihua's vegetable garden and pointed at the strawberry seedlings and said, "What is this seedling? We have some too!"
Zhang Aihua took a look and said, "This is a strawberry seedling!"
Mina was immediately surprised and said, "Strawberries, then let's get some fertilizer and water them!"
Kilton was more careful and asked Zhang Aihua, "How much water should be poured?"
Zhang Aihua didn't actually have much farming experience, but perhaps she still had some Shennong genes in her bones. She had been following Zhang Qingfang and the others around lately and had learned a lot. She specifically said to Kilton, "That's probably all. Don't water it every day, maybe once a month?"
Kilton nodded: "Okay, thank you."
As soon as they left, Zhang Yiwen asked, "Dad, are you reliable? Even Aunt Zhang is not sure about this fertilizer!"
Zhang Aihua glared at him and said, "You'll know after trying it!"
"Tsk tsk, you're such a liar!"
"You little brat, you're really itching!"
Jiang Si and his family had the most seedlings in their vegetable garden, of all kinds. After mixing the fertilizer, they didn't water all of them at once, but chose two of each seedling to water.
After watering the seedlings, there was still some prepared fertilizer left, so Jiang Si watered the hydrangeas, lilies and orchids planted in the front yard.
Jiang Si looked at Qin Shen and said, "Do you think the whole yard will be filled with flowers tomorrow morning?"
Qin Shen nodded, "Maybe!"
Jiang Si went to bed with anticipation, and when he woke up early the next morning, he couldn't wait to look out the window.
Upon seeing this, she was delighted and said, "Qin Shen, look, the flowers have grown taller! They've even formed buds!"
Qin Shen looked in the direction Jiang Si's finger pointed, and sure enough, he saw that the flowers that were still small seedlings yesterday had all grown taller and were about to bloom.
This fertilizer is even more effective than the growth techniques of gods.
Jiang Si quickly put on her clothes and pulled Qin Shen to the backyard.
The seedlings in the backyard are even more outrageous.
What was originally a cabbage seedling has directly turned into a big cabbage and can now be picked and eaten.
There are also strawberries and tomatoes, all of which are already wearing red fruits.
Jiang Si couldn't understand how they pollinated and bore fruit.
However, there are too many things in this world that cannot be explained by science.
Jiang Si was not surprised at all. He picked a strawberry and sniffed it in surprise. It smelled of strawberry.
Qin Shen was afraid that she would eat it, so he quickly said, "I'll wash it for you!"
Jiang Si smiled and said, "Okay, let's pick all of these and wash them together."
"Um."
It was very easy for Jiang Si and Qin Shen to pick vegetables. They just had to pick the fruits and vegetables and throw them into the space. It didn't take much effort at all.
Before they had finished picking, Shen Baoying and Jiang Linhai arrived, their faces filled with excitement as they exclaimed, "Sisi, all the fertilized seedlings have grown and borne fruit overnight!"
Jiang Si nodded, "Yes, that's great. From now on, whatever we want to eat, we can just use fertilizer to make it."
Jiang Linhai said happily, "Yes, this is indeed a great joyous event. From now on, the mammoth will be our treasure!"
People used to be afraid of them, but now that they know that mammoth dung has such magical uses, they have to treat it as a treasure.
Jiang Si smiled and said, "Let's plant more food and collect more seeds to spread to the mammoth herds so that they can also eat delicious food."
Jiang Linhai nodded: "Okay! I'll tell everyone right away so they can plant more!"
Before Jiang Linhai arrived, Zhang Aihua and her family got up and saw the red thing in the yard. They rubbed their eyes, thinking they were having an illusion.
Zhang Yiwen looked at Zhang Aihua and said, "Dad, these are strawberries, right?"
Zhang Aihua walked in and saw that it was strawberries!
Song Yufang exclaimed in surprise, "Strawberries! Strawberries! Strawberries have grown overnight!"
She picked a few and Zhang Yiwen quickly got a bucket of water to wash them.
Zhang Yiwen couldn't wait to throw the washed strawberry into his mouth, and immediately squinted his eyes happily, "So sweet, so delicious!"
Zhang Aihua also ate one. It was sour and sweet, a taste she hadn’t tasted in a long time.
He exclaimed, "I never thought mammoth poop could have such a big effect!"
Zhang Yiwen excitedly asked, "Dad, do we still have watermelon seeds that we haven't planted yet?"
Zhang Aihua nodded, and the father and son smiled at each other in tacit understanding. "That kind of?"
"Plant it!"
Song Yufang also hurriedly said: "Take all the strawberries and plant them!"
“Okay, okay!”
Kilton and Mina watered all the dozen or so strawberry seedlings at once.
The strawberries are big, red and very sweet!
Looking at them in rows, they look like small lanterns hanging on the ground, which are particularly attractive and cute.
The second brother and his friends got up and passed by, and were all stunned.
Pointing at Kilton and his friends' food, he said, "Why do you have strawberries?"
Kilton looked innocent: "You don't have any?"
The second brother and his friends didn't have any strawberry seeds or manure, of course they didn't.
Everyone was excited when they learned that they could eat strawberries the next day after applying manure.
They all took action and hurried to pick up the mammoth's dung and use it to water their vegetable gardens.
Jiang Si specially gave everyone some biological seeds so that everyone could eat their favorite food as soon as possible.
Jiang Si suddenly wanted to eat crispy fresh bamboo shoots, but all the ones in the space were frozen.
She found some bamboo seeds and planted a few in the yard.
The next day, bamboo really popped up.
The tender bamboo shoots look delicious.
Jiang Si picked up one, Qin Shen peeled it for her, and she wanted to bite it.
Qin Shen frowned and said, "We need to blanch it and stir-fry it."
Jiang Si shook his head, suppressing the discomfort in his stomach. "I just want to eat something raw and crispy. My appetite is really weird right now, and I feel like I can't control myself."
Qin Shen had no choice but to make sure that the bamboo shoot was tender enough and could be eaten raw, so he used a knife to cut it into small pieces for Jiang Si to eat.
Jiang Si ate two raw bamboo shoots one bite after another. He wanted to eat more, but was persuaded by Qin Shen and finally gave up.
After eating bamboo shoots for several days in a row, Jiang Si suddenly changed his taste.
I just want to eat stinky snail noodles and stinky tofu.
Shen Baoying said to Qin Shen, "Don't spoil her. She can't eat snail noodles and stinky tofu when she's pregnant. Let her eat them after she gives birth."
Jiang Si looked at Qin Shen pitifully, "Hubby, just eat a little bit, just a little bit! It shouldn't be a problem if you eat a little bit."
Qin Shen advised: "It's better not to eat it."
Jiang Si frowned, "But I really want to eat now. I feel uncomfortable if I don't eat."
In fact, she could have gone into the space to eat by herself, but she felt a little guilty about eating alone. If Qin Shen had supervised her, she might not have regretted it later.
Qin Shen said helplessly: "I'll do it."
Jiang Si's eyes lit up and she hugged Qin Shen's arm: "Husband, you are so kind!"
Qin Shen studied the recipe for a long time and finally figured out the essence of snail noodles.
Seeing him busy in the kitchen, Jiang Si touched her belly and smiled happily.
After a busy time, a bowl of clean and additive-free snail noodles appeared in front of Jiang Si.
Jiang Si sniffed it and said, "It smells good~"
Qin Shen smiled slightly, "You eat first, I'll get you some pickled radish."
Jiang Si nodded: "Okay."
Jiang Si was busy slurping the noodles. Qin Shen's cooking skills were indeed inherited from Shen Baoying. The noodles were so delicious.
By the time Qin Shen entered the kitchen, Jiang Si had already finished half of his meal.
It was like a starving ghost being reincarnated, and Qin Shen was almost scared.
"Eat slowly."
Jiang Si looked up, "Don't you want to eat something?"
Qin Shen shook his head, "I'm not hungry, you can eat. If you want to eat anything else, tell me."
He had already accompanied Jiang Si to bite two bamboo shoots and show off several strawberries and tomatoes.
After eating the snail noodles, Jiang Si felt a little bloated.
She should have been digesting the food, but she was extremely sleepy and her eyelids were drooping.
Qin Shen hugged her and said, "Let's go to sleep first."
Jiang Si snuggled into Qin Shen's arms, "If I keep eating like this, will I become a fat man weighing over 200 pounds?"
It's not only ugly for a while, but it's also unhealthy and not conducive to production.
Qin Shen shook his head. "You're fine now, not fat. You'll be fine once your appetite stabilizes."
Jiang Si sighed: "Can it be stable? I feel like I'm a bottomless pit that can never get enough food. It's so scary!"
She had never imagined that carrying a child would be so painful.
