Before the steamed buns had even cooled down, Ling Xue and the others had already started eating one each.
Only after tasting it did everyone truly appreciate how delicious this new type of wheat was. Even Ling Xue, who had tasted many good things, found it incredibly delicious: "I think even if I didn't eat any vegetables, I could still eat three buns this big."
The steamed buns made by Aunt Zhang are still very big. With Ling Xue's appetite, she could only eat one at most. Now her appetite has doubled. This shows how delicious this new type of wheat is.
By the time Aunt Zhang brought over a large bowl of cold dishes, Ling Xue had already finished a whole steamed bun.
Now that the food is ready, she certainly won't miss it and continues to fight.
The others followed Ling Xue's lead, and by the end everyone was full.
Afraid that they would eat too much and feel stomach upset, Aunt Zhang chased them to cut potatoes.
"Everyone, go do some work and move around more, or you'll get indigestion!"
Ling Xue and the others got up reluctantly and went to work. It was not because they were lazy, but they were too full to move. When Aunt Zhang urged them to work, they went anyway even though they were reluctant.
Each person took a knife and a chopping board and started to get busy.
"Don't be reluctant. Cut some more potatoes to sprout. Let Xiaoxue plant them tomorrow, and you'll have more delicious ingredients."
They were all very hands-on people, having eaten a lot of what Ling Xue had grown, so no one was truly unwilling to work. Under Uncle Zhang's guidance, they began cutting the potatoes according to the location of the sprouts, and soon several large basins of potatoes were cut.
Ling Xue mixed the chopped potato pieces with wood ash. They had no shortage of wood ash. Most of the time they cooked in a clay pot and burned a lot of wood.
Therefore, they still have a lot of wood ash stored.
In fact, it would be fine without wood ash. There would be no problem at all under the stimulation of Ling Xue's wood-related abilities. However, Ling Xue still followed the normal operation in the end, so that no one would have any doubts.
"I'll go plant these processed potato pieces first. You guys can take a rest after you finish dealing with the potatoes in the bags!" After saying that, Ling Xue went out with the processed potato pieces.
The planting robot is very intelligent and will not bury the potatoes randomly.
Ling Xue dug up the planted potatoes and took a look. She found that the buds of every potato were facing upwards. Only then did Ling Xue feel relieved.
The planted land next to it was being irrigated by a watering robot. It was covered in mist, as if it was really raining. The newly sprouted seeds were trying hard to absorb the nutrients from the green spring water. Ling Xue was in a very good mood.
Ling Xue reserved fifty acres of land to plant potatoes, which took her a week to complete. This was done with the help of Aunt Zhang and others. Otherwise, who knows how long it would have taken her alone?
Planting sweet potatoes is much simpler than planting potatoes. Ling Xue cut the long vines into sections and then let the planting robot do the cuttings. It is much faster than planting potatoes.
The planting area of sweet potatoes was fifty acres larger than that of potatoes, and it also took a week. However, the sweet potato planting was done by Ling Xue alone, so taking a week to plant was already very fast.
After the planting was completed, Ling Xue started to promote the growth of the 150 acres of sweet potatoes and potatoes. She stopped and let them grow slowly after they grew a little.
When Aunt Zhang came to check half a month later, the sweet potato vines had spread all over the ground, and the potato field had grown a foot tall.
