"Sweet potatoes grow underground, the sandy soil is loose, and the ventilation is good, which facilitates ventilation, and the constraints on growing up are also small.

In addition, the sandy land has a large temperature difference, and relatively speaking, it does not take advantage of the survival of pests. "Zhou Ying replied.

"I really don't see that you are quite good at farming."

"There, I also heard from old farmers. You can refer to peanuts. Peanuts are actually suitable for sandy soil."

"I see." Zhou Huaiming nodded thoughtfully.

Afterwards, a few people chatted for a while, and Zhou Ying and his wife went home.

Because the Erjin courtyard was full of men, Zhou Ying felt uncomfortable living there alone as a woman.

At night, Gu Chengrui killed a sheep in the space, and after dividing it, he sent out the gifts of each family early the next morning.

Another month passed in a blink of an eye. As the weather gradually turned cooler and the water consumption decreased, the water level in the well finally stabilized.

And people are also busy putting away the sweet potatoes.

Naturally, Zhou Ying's family was the first to collect it. At the same time, she called a strong laborer from each family to come over and study it. After all, harvesting sweet potatoes is also a technical job, and the sweet potatoes will be damaged if you don't pay attention.

People were learning from the sidelines, so they were naturally embarrassed to watch, so they started to fight, so the eight cents were collected in less than half an hour.

Zhou Ying looked at the pile of sweet potatoes and smiled with satisfaction. With these sweet potatoes as a cover, the life of their husband and wife will not be too sad in the future.

Then he said to everyone: "Everyone understands it. If you understand it, go back and collect it quickly. Remember to pick out the broken ones, wash them, cut them into slices or small pieces, and dry them, otherwise they won't be able to hold them. .”

"Okay, it's not difficult, every family should go back and collect sweet potatoes," said the patriarch.

"Wait, if someone doesn't want sweet potato vines, you can sell them to me, one mu of sweet potato vines, one tael of silver." Zhou Ying said at this time.

Everyone exclaimed after hearing this, but no one answered her words. After all, the year is unknown, and they thought about drying it and grinding it into grass noodles and mixing it with sweet potatoes.

Seeing this, the patriarch felt a little embarrassed, and then he quickly opened his mouth and said: "Okay, let's go quickly, remember that if you don't want sweet potato vines at home, you can sell them to Zhou Ying."

After everyone left, Uncle Gu, who stayed behind, went to Zhou Ying and said, "Zhou Ying, you are crazy, and you are not bad at stuttering, why are you paying a high price for sweet potato vines?"

"There is no way, there are still a herd of cattle and sheep waiting to eat on the village.

But at present, even with such a high price, I am afraid that it will be charged a lot. "

Uncle Gu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, knowing that he had misunderstood her, he felt embarrassed.

Thinking about everyone's reaction, I didn't know what to say for a while, so I hesitated and said, "There are fifteen acres of sweet potatoes planted at home, and I will give you ten acres of sweet potatoes for free."

After hearing this, Zhou Ying looked at him in surprise and said, "Thank you, Second Uncle, but you should go back and discuss it."

Uncle Gu was stunned for a moment, and was about to say that he could make the decision, but thinking of the behavior of Mrs. Liu and his own wife, he finally swallowed the words again.

But thinking of their husband and wife's help to the old house, he finally patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, this matter will be settled by the second uncle."

"Okay, thank you second uncle, but don't make things difficult, just forget it."

"Family, you're welcome." Second Uncle Gu turned and went out after finishing speaking.

As soon as he left, an ordinary carriage stopped at the door. Zhou Ying walked over in a daze. Before she could speak, she saw Zhou Huaiming walking in with half a slaughtered sheep.

Following shopkeeper Liu, he turned around and walked to the front of the carriage, then waited respectfully behind the curtain.
