Chapter 117: Growing well
Zheng Sisi saw that the foundation was marked with lime, which was similar to the blueprint she had drawn.
Zheng Sisi went to find Boss Jin and told him that the terrain of the pig farm should be high on one side and low on the other side to facilitate the discharge of sewage when cleaning the pig pen.
Seeing that everyone was working hard, Zheng Sisi couldn't help, so she planned to take this opportunity to go to the fields and see how the seeds were growing.
Zheng Sisi walked in front, and the third prince followed behind with a few followers, walking towards the fields. The several noblemen walking in the fields also formed a beautiful landscape.
No one is working in this area now, so it is indeed very quiet, and you can occasionally hear birds singing nearby.
Zheng Sisi first went to check on a few vegetable fields. After not having been there for two days, the seedlings had changed. They were still light green the last time she saw them, but now they were green with a small bud between the two leaves.
The fields were all green, and Zheng Sisi felt happy when she saw them.
Most of the potato fields have sprouted. Zheng Sisi walked through the middle of the field and felt that the survival rate was 100%, which was a good thing.
The sweet potato seedlings have also grown three leaves.
In the last cornfield, because the corn was not cultivated, it had to germinate on its own after being planted in the ground, which would be much slower. But today, we can already see very thin buds emerging in some places.
Zheng Si wanted to check the germination rate, so he dug up a few places where no sprouts had appeared. After fiddling with them for a while, he found the corn kernels and could see long white sprouts, but they had not yet emerged from the ground.
After carefully planting a few corn kernels back into the ground, Zheng Sisi stood up and said to the others, "The germination rate is very high and the growth is promising. We can just wait for the harvest."
Everyone was happy too when they saw that he was happy.
Zheng Zhiyuan said: "Cousin, when can I eat this corn? I really want to know what it looks like."
Zheng Sisi teased him, "Corn! It wears several layers of clothing and has a beard. It's delicious. You can steam it, boil it, roast it, stew it, grind it into powder, make pancakes, snacks, noodles, or porridge. There are so many ways to eat it."
Zheng Zhiyuan and Zhong Ruiyu slurped their saliva: "Life! Please hurry up!"
The Third Prince laughed and scolded them: "You are so useless. Don't you see that Miss Zheng is making fun of you?"
Zhong Ruiyu: "As long as there is something delicious, let her laugh at it."
Zheng Sisi shook her head: "Does Minister Zhong know that you are such a person?"
Zhong Ruiyu thought about it seriously and shook his head: "I wasn't like this before. It seems that after I met you, I especially like to eat the new dishes you make. Does this count as you harming me?"
Zheng Zhiyuan also joined in the fun: "Cousin, I also became like this after eating the food you cooked."
Zheng Sisi said firmly: "Stop, I won't take the blame for this, this is your business."
In fact, the Third Prince also wanted to say that ever since he ate the food made by Zheng Sisi, he no longer liked to eat food cooked by others, but he was too arrogant and did not show it.
A few people went back to the rice field, laughing and joking.
The rice field was still covered with tent cloth, and only the two ends of each ridge were uncovered.
Zheng Sisi squatted on the ground and tilted her head to look at the situation inside the tent.
In just three days, the fields are already covered with little bits of tender green. If you tilt your head and look over there, you can see a vast expanse of tender green, which is very beautiful.
Zheng Sisi asked a few people to try it together. Everyone followed her example, tilted their heads and looked, and were all shocked.
The Third Prince: "I didn't expect the seedlings to grow so beautifully."
Zhong Ruiyu: "Well, it looks like a piece of green cloth."
Zheng Sisi said: "It will be more beautiful in a few days, but unfortunately we can't see it. We have to go back tomorrow. Next time we come, it should be a green blanket and we can plant rice."
