A Blessed Wife At Home Chapter 1131: Potato
Qiao Xuan knew what she was thinking just by looking at her little face, and couldn't help but smile.
This feeling of being trusted and expected is actually quite good.
Qiao Xuan came back this time and brought back a lot of potatoes.
After her careful care, the potatoes planted in the backyard of Jingcheng's home and the potatoes growing in the space are doing great. Before she came back, the potatoes in Jingcheng's backyard had been dug.
There are about ten plants in total, and each plant has produced more than thirty or forty potatoes, each of which is bigger than a fist. Not only was Qiao Xuan happy, Li Qiu and the others who were digging with her were also extremely happy!
Shao Yunduan was even more in disbelief. He looked at the potatoes for a long time, still in shock and had not come back to his senses!
The family grows a lot of various crops, including peanuts, soybeans, corn, and taro. None of them produce as much yield as this potato—Qiao Xuan always called potatoes potatoes at first, but later she called them potatoes, so she just said it plausibly. The shape is more like enlarged beans, and they grow in the soil, so they might as well be called potatoes.
No other crop has as much yield as potatoes!
I just planted a dozen or so plants in the backyard and harvested two big baskets...
And looking at it like this, it's lumpy, very plump, like a yam that can fill your stomach, but the yield is much higher than that of a yam, so this is, this is so rare.
In the evening, Qiao Xuan specially made a potato stew with beef, a dry pot potato slices, a spicy and sour potato shreds, and also specially fried a few small potato pancakes.
When Shao Yunduan ate it, it tasted so good!
Potato shreds and potato slices can be used as dishes, while potato cubes and potato pancakes can be used as food. Even if it cannot replace food, if there is a famine year, it is always okay to mix it with half.
The hunger-satisfying effect is not as good as corn, but the yield is much better than corn!
Qiao Xuan had not tasted potatoes for a long time, especially her favorite hot and sour shredded potatoes, and she even boasted proudly to Shao Yunduan at that time.
Shao Yunduan also praised her with a smile, sighed with emotion, and repeatedly warned her not to tell anyone about the potatoes, not to let the young prince of the Prince of Anping County taste them first, and not to tell anyone else.
Shao Yunduan would not say anything to Qiao Xuan without starting or ending. He told her in detail that this potato is a new thing, and the yield is so high and it is so easy to grow. If it is popularized, it will be a great benefit to the people of Li. What a great thing.
But this matter is related to the livelihood of the common people. It is too big, so we must be cautious. Don't say anything before that.
Especially not to the Prince of Anping County.
The Anping County Prince's Mansion has nothing to do with the world. The Anping County Prince has stayed away from the court in recent years. If this matter is told to the County Prince's Mansion, the Anping County Prince will not be able to stay out of the matter. He will definitely report it to the Emperor. This does not mean that Did he pull it in?
This is inappropriate.
The young prince has become like this. The Prince of Anping County should no longer be involved in anything in the court and should just continue to be idle like this.
Qiao Xuan naturally agreed, and reminded him with a subtle smile that the potatoes were planted in her backyard and were carefully taken care of by her every day. She did not neglect watering and fertilizing, so they grew so well and bore so many fruits. If If it is promoted, it may not grow so much.
It will be considered good if it can bear a dozen fruits.
Maybe it's not that big.
Shao Yunduan laughed at that time and said that even if one plant only bears a dozen fruits, it is still a lot.
