Chapter 23 Go Now!

Chapter 23 Go now!

Chen Shuhui said: "I want to grow my own bean sprouts and sell them."

Chen Bingchang blinked and took out his ears, suspecting that he heard wrongly.

Chen Shuhui lowered her head and whispered: "Mom has eaten bean sprouts before. I saw it and remembered it in my heart."

Chen Bingchang paused.

When Chen Shuhui was five years old, her father died in an accident after going up the mountain. When she was six years old, her grandmother's family found Zhang Wenxiu's mother-in-law's home. The family did not allow Zhang Wenxiu to take away her child, so she was left at Chen Dashui's home.

She just lost her mother, not her own mother.

Zhang Wenxiu married a worker's family from a county 100 miles away. Later, the villagers heard that the man had been transferred to the provincial capital.

After Zhang Wenxiu left, in the first two years, she invited her family members to visit Chen Shuhui. After that, there was no news from her.

Chen Shuhui worked as a maid in Chen Dashui's family for a year.

At that time, she was thin and timid, and everyone wanted to beat her, scold her, and take it out on her.

Until Chen Bingchang came back.

Chen Shuhui's life gradually got better. Under Chen Bingchang's favor, not only did she gradually gain weight, her temper also improved.

Chen Bingchang felt sad again when he thought of the first time he came back to see his granddaughter.

Chen Shuhui packed her clothes and asked again: "Grandpa, who do you want to give these kilograms of mung beans and pumpkins to? And the bean sprouts I grow are going to be sold in the county."

In rural areas, mountainous areas are sparsely populated. There are more than 30 households in Sandaogou. Even if you eat bean sprouts every day, you can't make a few cents.

"Okay, grandpa, leave now, leave now!"

Chen Bingchang left with his hands behind his back.

Regardless of whether he can make money or not, whether he can grow bean sprouts or not, his Shuhui can do whatever he wants.

Chen Shuhui did not let him go alone, leaving only a pumpkin and a few sweet potatoes. The rest was put in a basket, and she carried him from house to house to exchange mung beans.

Mung bean sprouts, really good!

Can she do something so interesting?

Besides work, what she likes to do most is these mindless physical tasks.

Chen Bingchang and Chen Shuhui visited the whole village. Except Chen Dashui's family, everyone else went to exchange for 50 kilograms of mung beans.

Their two baskets of vegetables were not enough to exchange. Wild vegetables could not be compared with beans. They could not exchange one pound for another, nor could they exchange pumpkins.

In the end, Chen Bingchang said that he paid the salary, and everyone had no objection.

When they left, every family was talking about them.

They simply don’t believe that Chen Shuhui can grow bean sprouts!

It's a technical job. No one in the village can do it. No one wants to fumble for food.

I guess it must be that Chen Bingchang's family didn't eat. This is a change of approach. I'm sorry, I found a reason." said an aunt.

"You can pull it off! There is no food in your house. Do you eat mung beans every day? Do you want to pull it off?" Another aunt said while picking pine nuts.

"Hahaha." Everyone around laughed.

"But look, Chen Shuhui seems less annoying." One person said in surprise, "and smiles when you see the person." It looks very... kind of? "This is not like the ferocious black bear elf I remember!

"Yeah, yeah, what's wrong? Why did you change your gender?"

"Her master is probably going to die. No one will help her build it in the future. Hurry up and earn a reputation for yourself."

"Hey, so is the kid. He has no parents. It's really sad not to have such relatives."

"Yes, yes." Everyone around agreed, and the topic soon turned to Chen Shuhui's mother, who had been missing for many years.

No matter how annoying the original owner was, he didn't cause much harm to other people's families, so now he has changed his gender and even won the sympathy of many people.

Chen Shuhui didn't care about other people's opinions at all. He heard and didn't hear. He got busy as soon as he got home.

Soak the beans in warm water.

Soak for two days, sprout, put in a wicker basket, and it will be ready in seven days.

Of course, there are many details that need to be paid attention to. For example, it is best to place the screen at the bottom of the basket, wrap the basket with plastic sheeting, and cover the top of the basket with a quilt to block light and keep warm.

Otherwise, the bean sprouts will change color and become bitter.

Rinse several times!

Some people once washed bean sprouts with chemical fertilizers and water. In this way, the bean sprouts grew white, fat and fast.

A basket of 7 kilograms of mung beans can yield 80 or 90 kilograms in seven days.
