Aunt Liao sent Liao Er to the town and ordered a lot of seeds.
The seeds they ordered included various vegetable seeds, and more were grain seeds. After all, their family was an old farmer who had always made a living by farming.
After Ling Xue brought back the seeds, she followed Uncle Liao and Aunt Liao to start planting vegetables in the backyard.
Of course, she was just helping out. Aunt Liao didn't let her do the actual work, mainly because she was afraid that she would ruin the vegetable seeds.
There is a lot of land in the backyard, but Ling Xue also brought back a lot of vegetable seeds, so there will be no shortage of seeds.
Half of the land is planted with white radish and Chinese cabbage, and a lot of other radish varieties are also planted. There are also some small and large baby cabbages, but the quantity is not as much as that of Chinese cabbage.
The main reason for growing white radishes and Chinese cabbages is that they are easy to store, and the excess can be traded with others for other scarce materials.
The other vegetables are just for satisfying my own appetite. I also planted a lot of common vegetables such as cucumbers, tomatoes, eggplants, peppers and long beans. Anyway, I and the Liao family can't finish them all.
Don’t worry if you can’t finish it, you can make it into dried vegetables, which are delicious when stewed with meat in winter; you can also make it into pickles, which are also delicious snacks, and it is also very good to eat with porridge in the morning.
If vegetables are scarce, it will be even more amazing, mainly because various pickles and pickled vegetables can be stored for a long time and are not afraid of spoiling.
Ling Xue has taken all aspects of the problem into consideration and has made preparations. Now she is just waiting to see when the cold air will arrive.
The land has been prepared, and it is still quick to sow the seeds. Aunt Liao and Uncle Liao are both experienced, and even Brother Liao can't help in this regard. He is now treated the same as Ling Xue - just watching!
However, what Aunt Liao and Uncle Liao are doing now is not directly sowing seeds on all the land, but they are specifically sowing seeds on a piece of land. In other words, what they are doing now is seedling cultivation.
After sowing the seeds, Aunt Liao and Uncle Liao covered the land where the seedlings were grown with plastic film, so that the seeds would germinate better and faster.
After covering the ground film, Ling Xue and Uncle Liao both breathed a sigh of relief. Even though they didn't do anything, it was because Uncle Liao looked down on their craftsmanship.
Even though they looked down on it, they couldn't leave. Uncle Liao asked them to study hard and not miss any details.
Asking Brother Liao to do it would be better to let them do it themselves. Just standing there like this is like being tortured, it's so uncomfortable!
After finishing all these tasks, it was almost two o'clock, and they hadn't had lunch yet!
"Let's go back and cook!" Aunt Liao invited everyone to go to the Liao family.
Originally, Ling Xue wanted to go back to make lunch since it was lunch time, but was rejected by Uncle Liao.
According to him, there was only a little bit of work left, and they would go back together after finishing it. It was not worth splitting into two groups. Ling Xue had no choice but to stay and be a student.
When they returned to the Liao family, Ling Xue didn't stop and went straight to the vegetable garden in the backyard to pick vegetables.
Uncle Liao takes very good care of the lush vegetables, and it can be said that the garden is full of fruits and vegetables.
Ling Xue was in a good mood and picked a basket of green vegetables, a few cucumbers and tomatoes, and a lot of long beans. Aunt Liao said she would make steamed noodles for lunch.
To make steamed noodles here, you first need to stir-fry a pot of long beans and tomatoes and mix them with the noodles, so Ling Xue picked a lot of long beans and tomatoes.
