Chapter 120 Planting Sweet Potatoes

Liu Sanqiang was very satisfied with Dong Yue's attitude.

"Yue'er, stay away from Han Shao in the future."

Dong Yue was upset, "So, you don't like Young Master Han?"

Liu Sanqiang was choked, and seeing the woman's face was not good, he felt guilty, "I, I."

"Young Master Han is my friend, please be more polite to him in the future."

When Liu Sanqiang heard this, he looked shocked.

Dong Yue stopped looking at him and turned to leave.

Just two steps away, I saw my frightened daughter standing outside the door.

"Ruer?"

Liu Sanqiang found his daughter standing at the door, and seeing her with red eyes, felt sour.

Dong Yue walked towards Ru'er, Ru'er stepped back again and again, and asked in tears, "Mother, did you quarrel?"

Dong Yue looked at Liu Sanqiang, neither of them knew what to say.

They did fight, but they didn't want their daughter to know.

Finally, Dong Yue said, "Mother and father are talking about something, but the voice is a little louder."

Liu Sanqiang stated, "Yes."

Ru'er looked back and forth at her mother, then at her father, 'Really? '

Dong Yue came to touch her daughter's hair, smiled, "It's true, we didn't quarrel."

Ru'er looked at Dad again, "Is that so?"

"Ok."

Ru'er suppressed her tears and sighed, "Father is a man, he should let mother."

Liu Sanqiang hooked the corners of his mouth and said, "Yes."

Ru'er said quickly, "Father apologize to mother, mother was scared by father."

Liu Sanqiang was speechless, what was going on, and seeing his daughter looking serious, he looked at the woman, and he didn't want to quarrel with her.

"Sorry, I won't speak out loud anymore."

What can Dong Yue say, under Ru'er's gaze, followed by her statement, "It's okay."

Ru'er smiled, "Mom, I'm hungry."

"Let's eat."

"I want to eat my mother's cooking." After finishing speaking, he looked at Liu Sanqiang again, "Dad, do you want to too?"

"think."

Liu Sanqiang hugged his daughter and followed the woman into the kitchen.

Chen Ma and Wu Ma saw Madam enter the kitchen, and thought that there were four more maids today. They were worried that they were not doing well enough, and this was the rhythm of selling them. They knelt on the ground, not daring to gnaw.

Dong Yue didn't seem to notice their actions, and said to Ru'er, "Light the fire."

"Oh."

Ru'er was about to make a move, but Liu Sanqiang did it quickly.

Ru'er stood aside aggrieved, "Mother?"

"Give me an onion."

"Okay." Ru'er was happy this time.

Dong Yue got it from the side and began to put the washed vegetables into the pot, and said to Chen Ma, "Chen Ma, you go to make noodles, make more."

"Yes." Chen Ma responded and got busy.

Mother Wu tremblingly came to his wife, "What about me?"

"You chop vegetables!"

"yes."

Several people followed suit, and soon bursts of fragrance came from the kitchen.

Dong Yue first made some hot and spicy soup, and asked them to fill their stomachs first. After eating the hot and spicy soup, the noodles and stuffing were ready, and Dong Yue started making dumplings again.

Wu Ma and Chen Ma have never seen such a strange practice.

has been watching from the side.

Ru'er watched anxiously from the side, "Mother, what is this, can I eat it?"

"You'll find out later."

Liu Sanqiang watched from the side. He had eaten this thing, but he didn’t know what it was called. He remembered that it tasted good.

I don’t know if women make it more delicious.

Within less than a stick of incense, Dong Yuebao's dumplings came out of the pan.

Dong Yue only ordered three dishes, and gave the rest to Steward Li and others to taste.

Liu Sanqiang stood by, waiting for the woman to order.

Dong Yue found the woman's behavior very funny.

"Three strong, with dumplings."

"Oh."

The three of them entered the house with delicious dumplings.

After Dong Yue sat down, she felt that something was missing.

She hurried into the kitchen and got some garlic.

He returned to the table happily and began to eat.

Liu Sanqiang looked at that thing, is it delicious?

Thinking, when he saw the woman eating dumplings, he followed suit.

Soon, he fell in love with this taste.

Ru'er was still young, so he took a sip and dared not try again.

Eat dumplings alone, she thinks they are delicious.

The three of them were full, and happily went to the reclining chairs in the yard.

Dong Yue was so tired that she fell asleep lying down.

Ru'er leaned on Mother's body and soon fell asleep.

Liu Sanqiang was reluctant to sleep.

Looking at the mother and daughter in front of him, he wanted to do more for them.

After more than an hour.

Dong Yue woke up, this time she was really full of sleep.

He is in good spirits.

Seeing her daughter who was still sleeping on top of her, gently stroking her back.

The little paradise is ready, and after playing for a few days, I will send her to study.

She is also ready to start preparing to do what she has to do.

Thinking, his eyes met Liu Sanqiang's.

"I, I." The peeping was caught straight, his face was reddish, and he was stuttering and unable to speak.

"What are you going to do with those lands?"

"I listen to you." Liu Sanqiang said subconsciously.

"Tomorrow, let's go and see."

Liu Sanqiang said, "Today is fine."

Dong Yue took a look at the sky, and it's okay, now it's just right to go out to have a look.

Looking at her sleeping daughter, thinking that sleeping more is good for her health, she picked her up and put her in the house, told Qing'er and Lu'er to take good care of her, and she and Liu Sanqiang left.

Liu Sanqiang and Dong Yue left in a carriage

This way you won’t be too tired, and you can arrive faster.

It took about a stick of incense to arrive at Liu Sanqiang's fiefdom.

Seeing those lands, the corners of Dong Yue's mouth twitched.

How bad Liu Sanqiang must be, to find such a corner in many plains?

Liu Sanqiang came here for the first time. He has been farming all the year round, and he can see at a glance that this is a barren mountain.

Farmers in this place will definitely not survive.

After Dong Yue was stunned, she quickly realized it.

In the capital, Liu Sanqiang's status is not enough to look at.

Like the origin of his general, it was so sudden and so unpopular.

Dong Yue's stubborn temper came up.

Don’t even look down on Liu Sanqiang?

She will use this land to show everyone how blind you are.

She stood for a while, ready to go up the mountain to have a look.

Since the entire mountain belongs to Liu Sanqiang, if you make good use of it, you will get good results.

At the beginning, she decided to plant half of the crops and half of some seasonings, but now it seems that adjustments are needed.

As she climbed the mountain, she saw the surrounding soil.

Because it is not favored by others, almost nothing has been planted, and this land is more fertile.

Plant some sweet potatoes, cotton, and peanuts.

Dong Yue thought about it for a while, the sales of peanuts are not big, and now they basically eat lard oil, and rarely eat peanut oil.

Sweet potatoes can be more varied.

Wait until winter, when everyone is free, you can bake sweet potatoes and sell them.

Sweet potato planting time is around late January in spring. Early summer is also a good season, preferably around June. In autumn, you can also choose to sow in August. This is an early winter variety, so try to choose cold-resistant ones.

Cotton is divided into two types: spring-sown cotton and summer-sown cotton. Spring-sown cotton is generally sown around the grain rains, that is, in mid-to-late April, and summer-sown cotton is generally sown in late May to early June; the picking period begins in late August and ends in early and mid-October.

Cotton has a good market, and it is also a lot of income.

Thinking about the planting time, Dong Yue thinks that only autumn sweet potatoes can be planted now.

There is still nearly a month to prepare.

Dong Yue walked and thought, if the entire mountain was planted with sweet potatoes, it would also be a great income.

Thinking about it, Dong Yue visually inspected it, and found that this mountain top is at least 300 mu.

According to the yield of 5,000 catties per mu of land, there will be at least 1.5 million catties of sweet potatoes when harvested.
