Chapter 21 - sour words
When Zhang Chengchuan and Liu Guiying went to the city, the captain of the Yunhe Brigade also went to the commune, and also went to the town to tell the leaders that their brigade had gained several thousand kilograms of fruit.
Although fragrant fruit is delicious, it cannot be eaten as a meal, so several thousand catties of fragrant fruit can only be sold.
Fortunately, there is a food factory in the county seat, and so many fragrant fruits can be made into juice or canned.
The captain of the Yunhe Brigade and the others were very much looking forward to it, and there are still many unripe fragrant fruits in the mountains, and when those are ripe, they can be sold in batches.
Zhang Deping was busy selling fragrant fruit with the captain today. Of course, those who should work in the village still have to go to work. The sales of fragrant fruits are left to the captain and the others themselves.
At noon, Zhang Deping came back for dinner and went back to work. Zhang Chengchuan and the others didn’t say anything.
Chen Xiayue did continue to work on her in the afternoon. It’s great that wheat can be processed into maltose, so she continued to process the rest of the wheat into maltose.
Chen Xiayue planned to make some fruit candy with these maltose. In autumn, there should be a lot of wild fruits in the mountains. In addition to fragrant fruit, Chen Xiayue planned to make some other fruit candies.
It doesn’t matter if it’s a gift to any relative, even though Chen Xiayue herself doesn’t like sweets, it’s good to try fruit candies occasionally.
In the afternoon, mother and son Zhang Chengchuan and Liu Guiying went to work, and Chen Xiayue planned to go out to see if there were any wild fruits, such as thorn berries and the like.
Chen Xiayue didn’t go into the mountain. She was psychologically shadowed by the mountain leech before, and she didn’t want to walk around in the mountains full of mountain leech anymore.
However, just like she didn’t want to go into the mountains, she couldn’t find any wild fruits. Even if the wild fruits on the outside were ripe, they would be picked by the children in the village.
Chen Xiayue didn’t care that much. She just felt that it was too boring to stay at home, so she just went out for a walk. By the way, she took a look at picking some wild vegetables and went home.
[Ding——Congratulations on the farm upgrade——]
[Ding——Congratulations to the farmer for unlocking the new crop, “tomato”——]
Chen Xiayue, who was “hanging out” outside, heard the system’s prompt, and called up the screen to take a look. Her current level is level 2, and she has unlocked a new crop.
Tomatoes can be eaten as vegetables or as fruits, and can also be eaten as tomato sauce. It’s very good. With the eggs from the chicken farm, it can be made into scrambled eggs with tomatoes, which is very good.
And after having tomatoes, tomato bread can be made in the workshop, so bread made with wheat alone should be more delicious.
Chen Xiayue looked at the wheat inventory on her farm. Since she unlocked corn, she didn’t grow corn all the time. She also grows wheat during the day.
Wheat matures quickly, so there is still a lot in stock now. Most of her wheat was sold to the system, but there was still a lot left. Now there are about 5,000 catties of wheat in the warehouse.
This still removes the part that she used to process wheat into maltose before, so she is hungry for so much wheat, and she should be able to stop growing wheat now.
Just now that the wheat is mature, Chen Xiayue planted tomatoes after harvesting the wheat with one click.
Looking at the seven-point land above, Chen Xiayue took a look at her level, and then looked at the gold coin balance, and she continued to reclaim three pieces of land. Now there are ten pieces of land in total, which add up to one mu. size.
Chen Xiayue planted half an acre of corn and half an acre of tomatoes. The ripening time of tomatoes was 40 minutes. Chen Xiayue felt that he should be able to quickly accumulate enough unlocking experience and yield for the next crop.
After Chen Xiayue is done, she doesn’t care, and she doesn’t know if her farm has the function of a pond and whether it can raise fish.
She is greedy for the large ocean on the side of the farm, and she doesn’t know if there are fish in such a large ocean. The function of the farm does not operate the ocean, so Chen Xiayue doesn’t know if she can enter the farm or not. See if there are any fish in the ocean.
That’s right, people can’t enter Chen Xiayue’s farm now. You can only put things on the farm and take things out of the farm, but people can’t enter.
If you want people to enter the farm, you still need to upgrade, probably when the farm is upgraded to level 3, you can enter, and what you do in the farm will not affect the outside world.
Chen Xiayue is just very worried that if she cooks meat or food with a strong fragrance in the future, it will attract the attention of the neighbors.
In this era, everyone’s food is not very good, and eating meat will attract all kinds of attention. Chen Xiayue doesn’t want to eat meat every now and then to make the neighbors think about it, or say how their home is going outside.
If you can enter the farm, you can build a soil stove to cook on the farm, and even if you are stewing braised pork or stewing Buddha jumping over the wall, the neighbors will not know about it.
“Yo, isn’t this the one from the city? Why is it so precious? Everyone else is working in the fields, so you are the only one who wanders around like this?”
Just when Chen Xiayue was about to take care of the farm and was about to go on a stroll to see if she could find other wild fruits, a girl with a bamboo basket full of hogweed stopped her.
And beside her were a few girls of the same age, who should be the eldest girls in the village. They didn’t do any heavy work, but they were all girls who did light work such as slaughtering pig grass.
Chen Xiayue looked at the other party. She had read so many chronological texts, didn’t she say that country people and city people have a wall? Looking at the texts of so many years, no one in the village dared to provoke the daughter-in-law of the city.
Is it because she has a good temper? But she just married Yunhe Brigade for a few days, no one knows her, right? Someone dared to provoke her? Does she look bullied?
Chen Xiayue looked at the other party’s indignant eyes slowly, and really didn’t understand why she stopped her from saying such cynical words. Rival? But Zhang Chengchuan’s reputation is not liked by no one?
Chen Xiayue thought about Zhang Chengchuan’s face and figure, and then understood.
Who doesn’t look at the face of a young girl? Although Zhang Chengchuan is lazy, he is good-looking and has a good family background.
Zhang Chengchuan’s father was an accountant in the village, his eldest brother was an officer, and his eldest sister was married to the town. He was excellent everywhere except that he had a bad reputation and was very lazy.
Therefore, it is normal for some people to like Zhang Chengchuan’s conditions, and even elders would not be too opposed to marrying the Zhang family under such conditions. Zhang Chengchuan himself is lazy, but all the conditions except him are very good.
High school students are very valuable these days. Zhang Chengchuan’s identity as a high school graduate is very popular, so it should be very popular. It seems no surprise that these young girls would like him.
Chen Xiayue looked a little weird when she thought of it. Zhang Chengchuan was a waste in the eyes of the people in the county town, but in the eyes of the villagers, he was a good son-in-law candidate.
So, was it really her rival who stopped her?
