Chapter 27 Growing Vegetables

After checking Xiao Yilin's pulse, Jingyi gave Xiao Yilin, his master and servant, a reassuring pill, "Mr. Xiao's health has improved somewhat, and his life is not in danger for the time being. As long as he is treated well in the future, he will get better soon."

Xiao Yilin, master and servant, were all very happy after hearing this.

Gu Yu smiled happily, "Mr. Chu is really a miracle doctor. Just this night, my young master's complexion has improved a lot. Thank you so much, Mr. Chu."

Although Xiao Yilin did not laugh heartily, the corners of his mouth turned up. This was the best news he had heard since he fell ill due to poisoning, and it was also the happiest day. His body was saved, and he had a hunch in his heart that this young man would definitely

Cure him.

Jingyi started preparing breakfast after coming out of the wing. A piece of dough that Jingyi had specially set aside before was left to ferment. It could be used as a noodle starter to make steamed buns.

Last night, Jingyi mixed a large pot of noodles with flour fertilizer and it has been completely fermented this morning. In order to prevent the steamed buns from becoming sour, Jingyi also prepared a special plant ash water. After a night of precipitation, the plant ash water is also very clear.

Yes, it's ready to be used.

Plant ash contains alkali. After soaking in water, the alkaline component will dissolve in the water. This is the most primitive alkaline water. Of course, the grass used to burn the plant ash is also selected, and not all grass will work.

In the morning, Jingyi tried steaming a pot of steamed buns. It was pretty good. The steamed buns were soft and had the smell of flour. The flour at this time was still relatively coarse, so the steamed buns were not snow-white and were a little yellow, but they were still good.

Jing Yi also asked Qiao Yan to make millet porridge, and she made some pickles and scrambled eggs.

The supplements Feng Zhi brought back yesterday included bird's nest. Jingyi made a bowl of bird's nest porridge for Xiao Yilin.

The steamed buns are soft and easy to digest, and the eggs are nutritious, so Xiao Yilin can also eat them.

Qiao Hong put down the food and said: "This is a new kind of pasta made by my young master, called steamed buns. Let's try it."

After Qiao Hong left, Xiao Yilin picked up a white flour steamed bun, broke off a piece and put it into his mouth. The texture was soft and delicious, with a sweet and fragrant taste of flour, without any sourness. It was really delicious.

Someone in the palace also made this kind of pasta, but it had a sour taste. I don’t know how Mr. Chu got rid of the sour taste.

Xiao Yilin pointed to the steamed buns on the table and said to Gu Yu and Feng Zhi: "It tastes very good, you can eat it too."

Gu Yu took a bite of the steamed bun and nodded, "It's delicious. The steamed bun smells delicious. The side dishes are also delicious."

After breakfast, Xiao Yilin still happily drank the medicine Jing Yi prepared for him.

After Xiao Yilin finished eating the medicine, Jingyi asked Qiao Hong to dig up the ground in the backyard, and then went into the mountains again with a basket on her back. This time she picked some herbs and hunted a few pheasants and hares. There was game meat to eat when she returned.

On the way home, Jingyi saw the river not far away and her thoughts moved to the riverside. She put down her basket on her back and reached into the water in a place with many aquatic plants.

She directly used her superpower to wrap a large carp with water plants in the river, and then pulled the carp in front of her eyes. She directly caught the carp.

Using the same method, Jingyi caught two large carp, and then carried the carp back home with a few reeds skewered on a string.

Seeing that his young master had gained a lot again, Qiao Hong took the things and looked at the two big carps and asked in surprise: "Sir, where did you get these fish?"

Jing Yi said: "I caught them. There are many people at home. You can pack up both fishes. Let's stew the fish for lunch."

Qiao Hong readily agreed and went to collect the carp.

Jing Yi dried the herbs that she had collected from the mountains before and cooked them as needed. She saw that there were just a few herbs that Xiao Yilin could use.

There are many medicinal herbs in the mountains, and she can often go to the mountains to collect herbs in the future.

Jingyi went to the backyard to see how much land Qiao Hong had plowed, and when he saw that all the land in the backyard had been plowed, it was too fast.

She returned to the front yard and asked, "Qiao Hong, did you plow all the ground in the backyard?"

Qiao Hong shook the water on his hand and stood up and replied: "Sir, Brother Gu, Brother Feng and I plowed the land in the backyard together. They saw me plowing the land, and when they learned that you wanted to grow vegetables, they plowed the land with me.

It’s a big deal. They can do it much faster than me.”

When Jing Yi heard that it was true, she said that it was impossible for Qiao Hong to plow the backyard in one morning.

But now she can grow vegetables in the backyard. She can also harvest a batch of vegetables before winter.

She bought several vegetable seeds such as Chinese cabbage, spinach, radish, and coriander. She also had celery, rapeseed, and leek seeds that could be planted. It was already autumn, and these vegetables should be harvested in the winter.

At worst, I might as well use my powers. I don't know how cold it will be in the winter here.

At noon, Jingyi made delicious fish fillet porridge for Xiao Yilin. The other fish were braised in braised fish, and a circle of rolls was posted on the side of the fish stew pot. Some of the rolls were soaked in fish soup in the pot and they were very delicious. Jingyi was afraid

Since the staple food was not enough, Qiao Hong made rice stewed.

However, the braised fish tastes worse without soy sauce. Jingyi is eager to make soy sauce and miso. The soy sauce and miso she made before are still drying in the yard, because she started to use her powers, and now the miso

It's almost ready, the soy sauce will have to wait for some time.

She didn't make much soy sauce before, so she planned to buy more soybeans and make a few more jars of soy sauce. After all, soy sauce is indispensable for daily cooking.

In addition to braised fish, Jingyi asked Qiao Yan to cook two more dishes.

Xiao Yilin ate fish fillet porridge and also tasted braised fish, which whetted his appetite and ate a lot. However, he did not dare to eat the paper because it was harder and he was afraid that he would not be able to digest it.

However, Gu Yu and Feng Zhi ate with gusto. None of the four members of Jing Yi's family ate as much as Gu Yu and Feng Zhi.

Xiao Yilin looked at the two subordinates who were so capable and said, "Don't be idle all day, help the Chu family with more work."

Feng Zhi nodded and said: "Sir, we helped Qiao Hong plow the ground in the backyard this morning. He said that his master wanted to plant vegetables. Despite his young age, Mr. Chu knows a lot of things. He can even plant vegetables."

He knows how to cook, and I don’t know what his family was like before, so that he could teach such a knowledgeable and talented child.”

Gu Yu said: "Let's not worry so much, as long as Mr. Chu can cure our son's body."

In the afternoon, Jingyi started to tidy up the vegetable patch and plant vegetables. Gu Yu and Feng Zhi also helped. They were responsible for fetching water and irrigating the ground, while Jingyi was responsible for planting.

The seeds have been treated by Jingyi with supernatural powers, and they will sprout soon after being planted in the ground.

Although she will not make the vegetables grow immediately, she will speed up the growth of some vegetables appropriately without being suspected.

With the help of Gu Yu and Feng Zhi, the vegetables in the backyard were planted in one afternoon. Because of the solar terms, Jingyi planted Chinese cabbage, spinach, radish, coriander, leek, rapeseed, celery and other vegetables.

Most of these are leafy vegetables, which can be eaten as they grow older. She is also planning to dig a cellar to store vegetables in the future.

Now we have two strong laborers, Gu Yu and Feng Zhi, so they can help.

There are no potatoes, corn and other crops here yet, so she will have to pay more attention to exotic species in the future.

Jingyi plans to optimize the seeds of wheat, rice, soybeans and other food crops to at least increase the yield of these crops.
