Potato cake, shredded potato with pickled pepper, stewed spare ribs with potato, potato slices with chili, potato vegetable soup, and a volcanic potato paste.
Although there were only six dishes, as long as there were enough portions, everyone would definitely be full.
He peeled the potatoes from the spine, then sliced them into slices, shredded them, or cut them into knife-shaped pieces. After he was done, he soaked them in water.
For example, when the potato cakes and mashed potatoes were cooked, they would be placed in the pot to steam.
For the potato and vegetable soup, the potatoes had to be cut into pieces.
There were a total of 11 people in the family. Including grandma Xiao and Lu Zheng, there were 13 people. Gu Nian planned to have 10 people each, mainly because the Gu family had huge appetites.
She had also prepared enough of the other dishes.
However, Gu Nian still felt that it was not enough. She asked fourth uncle Gu to dig a few more nests with a hoe. She then boiled the potatoes and ate them with some seasoning.
……
On the lunch table, there were six large plates of potato-related dishes, and dozens of boiled potatoes in the pot.
“This pancake is not bad!” Grandpa Gu said with a smile as he ate a pancake.
“Oh my, this thing is completely different from eating it raw! It’s delicious!” Zhang Shi first ate the boiled one. She only took a small bite, then said a few words and began to eat one in a few bites.
as expected of the grandparent-grandchild beans. They’re so delicious! Uncle Gu also ate boiled food. After he finished eating, he began to pick up the potato ribs.
“Brother ah Yuan, second uncle said that all the potatoes in the field belong to your family. Can you sell us some? It’s so delicious!” Gu en asked Lu Yang as he ate quickly. He had eaten all the food.
en ‘Zi, these potatoes are going to be used as seeds, just the ones in our field. Let’s plant them one batch after another, so that we can have more seeds and not lack food. Gu Xin said.
“Xinxin is right. If he didn’t have the seeds after he finished eating, he wouldn’t be able to eat them. The potato itself is a seed, right?” Grandpa Gu looked at Lu Zheng as he spoke.
“Yes, that’s what I gave second uncle. Previously, granduncle had people plant it in the Four Seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter, but it didn’t grow. It rotted in the ground, and there were only two bags left. I gave second uncle one bag, and granduncle still has another bag.” Lu Zheng nodded and said, ” this spring plowing, I’m going to learn how to grow potatoes from second uncle and aunt Lian. There’s also Golden Rice and red potatoes.”
“Leave this to me. I’m just afraid that you’re too used to living in the city and can’t do farm work!” Cai Xiaolian laughed.
In the vegetable field of the old house, they had already planted corn and sweet potatoes. Cai Xiaolian, who was a rich young lady in her previous life, now knew how to grow sweet potatoes and corn.
“Aunt Lian, don’t look down on me. I’ve already told grandma that I’ll go with you to explore the wasteland in two days. Isn’t there a rule that states that the land you open up must be signed by the Yamen? I don’t have any land in the village, so second uncle and aunt Lian must give me one mu and three parts of it!” Lu Zheng said with a smile.
“Don’t joke around. Ah Yuan, you’re old Zhou’s grandnephew. Do you think our small piece of land is of any use to you?” Zhang Shi immediately retorted as she still had something in her mouth.
If not for the fact that Lu Zheng was three years younger than Gu Hui, she would have wanted Lu Zheng to be her son-in-law.
“Big brother’s family, you’re wrong. Old Wang and old Zhou have grandchildren. How could they give such things to their distant relatives?” Grandma Xiao almost called him an old bastard.
