MTL - Portable Space: The Peasant Princess

Chapter 52: Want to grow tomatoes

Gu Panxia stood on the ridge of the field, looking at the two of them and smiling sweetly.

“Uncle Jiang, Brother Qing, I heard from my aunt that you are going to plow the fields today, so I was wondering if you could help me plow our field.”

 “You want to farm?”

Jiang Qing was a little suspicious. He had never seen Gu Panxia going to the fields before, when Gu Dahai and Mrs. Zhou were together. Later, after the fields were taken away, he had never seen her. Now that she wanted to plow the fields, she would Plant?

Uncle Jiang stopped what he was doing, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then shouted: "Pan Xia, please go back. We will finish plowing here in a while, and I will help you by the way. Your brother Qing went to town a few days ago." I bought some grain seeds, and there are still a lot of them. I’ll ask your sister-in-law to help spread them later.”

 “Ah! No need, I have the grain!”

She lacks everything, the only thing she doesn’t lack is grain seeds, and there are still a bunch of them in the space.

 Besides, she didn’t intend to use this field to plant rice in the first place. She wanted to use it to grow other things.

“Okay, when you go back, take the grain seeds to your aunt and ask her to help you soak them.”

"No, Uncle Jiang, this field... I don't want to use it to plant rice!"

Uncle Jiang was stunned and looked at her in confusion, "If you don't use it to plant rice seedlings, what will you do with it?"

 Gu Panxia scratched the back of his head and laughed dryly, "Haha, um... I'm going to use it to grow tomatoes!"

“Tomatoes? What’s that?” Jiang Qing asked curiously.

 Gu Panxia was startled, and then she remembered that people here still don’t know what tomatoes are, nor do they know what tomatoes are!

"Oh - well, I don't know what it is. The last time I went to town, I met a strange-looking man selling seeds. He said they were called tomatoes and could be eaten as fruit or vegetables. I It sounded novel, so I bought some and came back to try it.”

Uncle Jiang frowned and said with some disapproval: "Pan Xia, listen to your uncle, we won't plant tomatoes for now. You see, in fertile land, if you plant those things, they won't grow." , wouldn’t that be in vain?”

Although this field is not much, it is good land. If it is used to grow food, the harvest can be much greater than other inferior fields.

 Gu Panxia also knows the importance of fertile land to farmers, but she doesn’t know how to transplant rice seedlings, and she doesn’t want to do so.

“Don’t worry, Uncle Jiang, if you can’t plant anything, then I can plant something else.”

She is not short of food now. She just wants to take out the seeds in the space and try them out to see the effect.

Uncle Jiang still disagreed a little, "Pan Xia, listen to my uncle's advice and plant food well, don't plant what you don't have, ah?"

Gu Panxia shook his head firmly, "Uncle Jiang, don't worry, I have my own arrangements. I'll leave you with the plowing matter!"

Seeing that he couldn't convince her, Uncle Jiang had no choice but to shake his head.

“Okay, let’s go outside in the sun, be careful of getting a heatstroke, and go back quickly!”

 Gu Panxia nodded, "Oh, I'll go back first, sorry to bother you!"

She felt a little guilty about always asking the Jiang family to help, so she planned to go to the place selling pork in the village to cut two kilograms of pork and bring it back to the Jiang family.

 “Go, the fields are narrow, so be careful when walking.”

Over the years, Zhang has been cultivating this field. In order to increase the area, she has almost cut down the field edges to only a small area.

If it could accommodate two feet before, now it can only accommodate one foot. Therefore, even if Gu Panxia is standing, he can only have one foot in front of him and one foot behind him.

“Then I’m leaving, Uncle Jiang, goodbye Brother Qing!”

 She waved to the two of them, then turned around cautiously, turning back the way she had come.
